Bill Prendergast spilled the beans. • — - There are a thousand reasons—good ones —why you should vote for democratic ticket tomorrow, and none why you should not. The cat is out of the bag—Roosevelt is to be secretary of state if Hughes is elected. Can the country afford such a catastrophe? The nation is out of jvar. The state is out of debt. So is county. The democrats did it. Remember it when you vote tomorrow. Peace and prosperity. Does it sound good to you, Mr. Farmer, Mr. Workingman, Mr. Merchant? If it does, vote for Woodrow Wilson. And Roosevelt is in favor of seizing all German ships interned here. That means war right off the bat. He is slated for secretary of state. Wilson is for you. If you discharge him tomorrow you are discharging an

honest and faithful and capable servant. If you do you will be sorry. The roorback came Saturday ni»ht when William A. Prendergast introduecd Theodore Roosevelt as the next secretary of state. You are working—not- fighting. Your toys are with you. Wtodrow Wilson stands for peace with honor. Take that thought with you to the polls. "Following the sinking of the Lusitania I would have foregone diplomacy and seized every ship in our ports Hying the German flag.”—Roosevelt. And he is slated for secretary of state. And don’t forget l’iat WoodrowWilson will be powerless without a democratic congress ad renate. VOTE FOR DENNY. TAGGART. KERN. IT MEANS FOUR YEARS MORE OF PROSPERITY. NoW'tor the finish, boys! Keep tip the "pep” for another twenty-four hours. See that nothing is put over on us and the victory is ours. Let’s make a new high record for, Adams county. We can do it if you help. The New York Herald, which has made a conscientious poll of the country, declares the president will be elected by a majority of forty-one Votes in the electoral college. The Herald’s pre-election predictions have never failed. The lines are set. We are ready for the big battle of ballots. President Wilson is standing on his record —the greatest record of achievement made by any president in*fifty years. Do you want to re-employ him or discharge him? It’s up to you. If you had two tickets presented to you tomorrow and one said, ‘.Unnecessary war.’! and the other, “Peace with honor,” which would you vote? Think it over. Roosevelt was introlueed Saturday night at New York as the next secretary of state. Men who believe in good government and that Woodrow Wilson should be re-elected tomorrow should devote their time to aiding. ,Be at the polls early and assist in seeing that the vote comes out. It is imporant. Do your duty as a good citizen. The Cincinnati Enquirer, the New York Herald, Chicago Examiner. Columbus Dispatch and dozens of other papers Sunday predicted the re-elec-tir.n of Woodrow Wilson. The RexaJl straw vote shows the president will have 295 electoral-votes, twenty-nine more than enough to elect him. The republicans spilled the beans Saturday night when their chairman introduced Roosevelt as the next secretary of state. A man who will break up his political party, grandstand at every opportunity, make wild statements that are meant to create panic, is certainly an unsafe man to put in power. Why change? Things ere going along pretty good right now. Mr. Hughes declares he will wipe out of existence the record of democratic achievement. That means the -federal reserve law, the child labor law. the farmer’s loan law, the eight-hour

law, the tariff law, and ail the other splendid laws placed on the statute books. Henry B. Heller, county chairman, predicts, a JTilson landslide and that Adams county will roll up her usual majority this year. His inside poll shows that conditions are excellent in this county anG that we are ready to vote. He has worked continuously at the job for six weeks and the organization is perfect in every precinct. Bob Ttcker in the Cincinnati Enquirer yesterday gives the democrats , eight of the thirteen congressmen in Indiana. He says Denney will be elected in the Eighth, and the democrats will also win in the Second. Third. Fourth, Eleventh, Twelfth, Thirteenth. And if Bob says so, the chances are that wo will elect all thirteen. In introducing Theodore Roosevelt

in New York last Saturday night, Mr. Prendergast, the presiding officer, said "Mr. President, our next secretary of state, Theodore Roosevelt." And Theodore has said repeatedly in this campaign what he would do if given the power. If he does what he says he would Xo it means war in spite of fate. How will you vote the quest lon ? AU over the state of Indiana the democrats closed their campaign Saturday night and with the greatest enthusiasm ever witnessed In old Indiana. At Fort Wayne thousands upon thousands cheered for hours and a thousand automobiles formed a parade that required more than an hour to pass a given point. At Indianapolis the laboring men gave thC greatest rally of the year. At Evansville the parade required three hours to pass a given point. Indiana has joined the landslide and will give the preshident the vote he is entitled to. , DOINGS IN SOCIETY H WEEK’S SOCIAL CALENDAR. T uesday. Tri Kappas—Mrs. L. C. Helm.

He aiwke particularly of ona tent, in whi- h seven or more were housed, and in which they are suposed to be in by nine o’clock when taps sound. Each one takes his turn In reading a chapter of the bible and in prayer, and whether there be any scoffers among them or no, they all take their turn. In many instances he told of the boys' loyalty to Christ, in spite of the many temptations that assail them. Associated with Rev. Thornburg, closely, was the neighbor, the chaplain of the fifth Nebraska, a bishop In the Episcopal church. The bishop has however, resigned and returned to his work at home.

He »poke of the great comfort, it is to the men at the front, whose wives are in sympathy with their service there and brave and strong and courageous in their absence, knowing that their allegiance is due to their country, as well as to themselves, lie spoke of the sorrow of one lieutenant whose letters from his wife,. brings word of her hitter grievance againct his love, which she things is greater for his country than fcr her. making it especially sorrowful for him. in doing what is his duty to his country.

Why Rheumatism Comes With Cold Weather. By Valentine Mott Pierce, M. D.

A close connection exists between these twa —cold weather and rheumatism. Prof. Alex Haig, of London, has the most followers in the medical profession in the belief that the presence in the system of uric acid, or its salts in excess, is the real cause of rheumatism. Every one has recognized the difference in the appearance of their water as soon as its gets cold; there is often a 'copious sediment of “brickdust.” Several causes may lead up to an accumulation of uric acid in the system. which, in turn, causes rheumatism or gout, or creaky joints, swollen painful joints. For one reason the skin does not throw off the uric acid, by profuse sweating, as in the hot weather, and kidneys are unable to take care of the double burden. Another reason is that people do not drink as much water in cold weather as in summer, which helps to flush the kidneys. Again, they eat more meat in cold weather, and

An avangeilst in Chattaj»ooga pray'd as follows: "Oh, Lord, wilt thou afflict those who dance with rheumatism. that they may dance no’ long■r?” While we do not believe “such prayers ascend to heaven,” we say ‘on with dance, let joy be unconfined.” If you contract rheumatism it will nol be from dancing but bad blood, which qan be corrected by taking Number 40 For The Blood. Successfully employed in rheumatism, catarrh, blood poison, constipa--1 tion, stomach, kidney and liver diseases. Under its use nodes, tumors, sores, ulcers, copper colored spots, , mucous patches and scaly skin dis- : eases appear as if by magic. Made by J. <.

some people are so susceptible that they soon develop rheumatism after eating meat. At all such times persons should drink copiously of hot water, say, a pint morning ahd night, and take Anuric three or four times a day. This Anuric comes in tablet form and can be had at almost any drug store. It dissolves the uric acid in the system and carries it outward. I would advise everyone to take it occasionally, and continue for three or four weeks, and in that way avoid rheumaitsm. gout and many of the painful disorders due to uric acid in .the system. Make yourself healthy and strong by open-air exercise and diet. Then clean the liver by occasionally stimulating its action with a pleasant laxative composed of the May-apple, dried juice of aloes, and root of jalap.
