Howland of Lapeer, Mich., and Robert Gardner of Metamora. Mich., stockholders of the Also Products company are here for a few days attending to business of importance.

Many prominent society women, led by Mrs. Adrian Iselin, have given up social activities in order to teach sailors how to cook. Mrs. Iselin, writing in the November issue of Harper’s Bazar, tells how, through her New I York Cooking School, these women are training able seamen ao prepare food properly and are rapidly lessoning the shortage of capable chefs jin the navy. Rear-Admiral Usher, U. S. N., has co-operated with Mrs. Iselin and has Indorsed her work. Dr. B. C. Henricks has returned to Decatur from a very successful trip over the state of Indiana, on a tour of making arrangements for a state wide campaign of Chiropractic lec-| tures. He says that the public is very anxiously waiting for these lectures and that every Chiroprator is in favor of having the lectures start in their towns at once. A very interest-’ Ing and successful meeting was held in the Hotel Courtland at Kokomo last. Sunday and from all indications the campaign will be highly successful. Another meeting is to be held very soon. This is the time of falling leaves—and bonfires. Beware of the bonfire! . It Is a menace to the lives of children, and to property. Wind and sparks run a riotous race in mid-air. With their carnival comes the soft-stepping undertaker, and the clang of the fire gong. Rotted leaves make fine fertilizer. The leaf mould will pay a thous and-fold in increased fertility for .-ill labor expended. Conserve the leaves by burying, not burning. Bonfires on city pavements cause ruin which means dollars from the tax-payer’s pocket. Remember always: carelessness which starts a fire in wartime is treason.—Ohio S. F. Bulletin. The United States Fuel Adminis trator for Indiana indicates very clearly that, for the present, his policy isj to be one of encouragement for those channels of business already in use. rather than the creation of new ones., In his reply to Geo. W. Bollenbacker’s offer cf a mine that has been closed down for several years this policy >s set forth. Mr. Bollenbacker recently wrote the administrator that a mine near Washington. Ind., opened in 1890 and operated until 1895, could be turned over to any one who cared to re- ( open the property. In replying to this offer the administrator said he would keep the offer on file but at present i the policy is to encourage production. in mines already operating until the maximum capacity is reached.

VINOL MAKES GOOD BIOOD Positive—Convincing Proof Many ao-called remedies for anaemia are only so in name. Their makers are afraid to prove their claims by telling what their medicines contain. The only way to be honest with the people is to let them know what they are paying for. Here is the Vinol formula. When the doctor knows what a medicine contains, it ceases to be a “patent" medicine. T> Cod Liver and Beef Peptones, Iron and Manganese Peptooate*, Iron and Ammonium Citrate, Lime and Soda Glycerophospbatea, Caacario. Any doctor will tell you that the ingredients of Vinol, as named above, will enrich the blood and banish anaemia and create strength. When the .blood is pure and rich and red, the body is strong and robust. You can prove this at our expense because your money will be returned if Vinol does not improve your health.

FIGHT FOR YOUR LIFE Duty Demands Robust Health Fight to get it and keep it Fight—fight day in and day out to prevent being overtaken by ills and alls. Keep wrinkles from marring the cheek and the body from losing Its i youthful appearance and buoyancy. Fight when Ul-health Is coming with its pallor and pains, defects and declining powers. Fight to stay its course anti drive it off. But fight intelligently. Don’t fight without weapons that can win the day for without the intelligent use of effective weapons the pallor spreads and weakness grows and a seemingly strong man or woman ofttlmes becomes a pray to ills after all. Y’ou will not find this class of persons in the hypoferrln ranks. No unhealthy, dull, draggy, droopy persons In that line. It is a hale, hearty, robust aggregation of quick-steppers who view life in a. joyous frame of mind and are mentally and physically equal to any emergency.

Hypoferrln contains those mighty strength-producing agents, leclthln-and-iron peptonate, In a form best adapted to benefit the body and Its organs. Its Ingredients are absolutely necessary to the blood. In nine cases out of ten a . run-down condition, sallow, pale complexions that ‘‘all in” feeling and frail bodies are due to lack of lecithin-and-iron peptooate in the system.

TERRIBLY SICK WOMAN Surgical Operation Thought Necessary, but Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound Saved Her. Madison, Wis. —“I was a terribly sick woman for over three years. 1 suffered wi “ l t ’ err *ble pains in my back anil was [yfllr • übout to have an op- _ flg ■ r 'l■ • n WF friend said to me, WJf r l , ‘‘f" r, ‘ having that IWrWiSM operation just try $ Lydia E.

(confidential), Lynn, Mass. 0 Backache Tn epi to of the best care one fakes of oneself, any part of the human machine is liable to become out of order. The most important organs are the stomach, heart and kidneys. The kidneys are the scavengers and they work day and night in separating the poisons from the blood. It is only reasonable to believe that they are liable to derangement. Their signals of distress, however, are easily recognized and include such symptoms as backache, depressions, drowsiness, irritability, headches, dizziness, rheumatic twinges, dropsy, gout. “The very best way to restore the kidneys to their normal state of health,’’ says Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., "is to dnnk plenty of pure water and obtain from your favorite pharmacy a small amount of Anuric (double strength), which is dispensed by most every druggist.” Anuric is inexpensive and should be taken before meals. You will find Anuric more potent than lithia, dissolving uric acid almost as water does sugar. NEWS OF SOUTH BEND. South Bend, Ind— ‘‘When I liegan taking Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery and Favorite 3 Prescription I was sufsering from stomach vS trouble, constipation, iMßnsr* and woman’sweakness. ‘Golden Medical Discovery’ had been a x/'l favorite remedy for y .j. ’coughs with my moth- \! er. 1 used the two '“ z remedies off and on for nearly a year.
