Miss Tawney Apple is mighty paterotic. but you can’t tell whether she’s knittin' socks or nosebags. Constable Plum lias ordered knackwurst re-christened.-—Abe Martin in Indianapolis News. I Attorney D. B. Erwin returned Friday afternoon from Portland where he had been trying the Sander’s case. It was finished just in time to allow his return which would otherwise have been delayed by the inclement weatii- ! er of Saturday. Ferdinand is tile name of the nine bound boy born Saturday night during I the blizzard, to Mr. and Mrs. John Reynolds. 428 Mercer Avenue. The father is the butcher for the Mutchler meat market. The mother was Miss Mary Whittenbarger. Owing to the difficulty early in the day of getting the rooms heated enough .there was no school at the north ward; the library rooms; and the first three grades of the south ward this morning. However, by noon the temperature had been gotten up to the required standard and lessons were taken up this afternoon as usual.

Homer Kuodle visited in Berne last evening. Nobody visited in Fort Wayne tothat we heard of. Rurail mail carriers were unable to get out again today. The condition of Mrs. J. H. Stew- ( ' are of South Third street, who has been ill several weeks, remains about | the same. Saturday, January 26th is the next Prize Day in Decatur and a big crowd ' is expected. The business houses will close early this evening, starting their fuel saving campaign. Ixie Stults, retiring Foreman of the Yeoman lodge, was presented with a handsome emblematic ring by the order. The Indianapolis papers came in at I noon today, first, outside papers to ar-J rive since Friday and there was a big. demand for them. School was held in all the buildings in Decatur this afternoon, excepting the north ward where the pipes burst ' ed and a vacation was forced. Boys of the Adams County Pig Club' were in town today to get the pigs received here for them. These were cared for in the old interurban station building. | The Rex theater will be open to- ; night and the famous films, “The retreat of the Germans at Arras” will be given again, it having been impossible to send them out. ( David Heller, who has been ill for ten days with bronchial pneumonia, is' reported considerably improved today.)' His mother. Mrs. H. B. Heller, who Jias also been ill, bordering on tonsi- 1 litis, is better today. The tickets for the Masonic lecture course are going nicely and those in , tharge believe the entire 300 tickets I will be taken. Single admissions are': ’fifty cents or season tickets, goor for tlie three events are one dollar. It is a high class event. The interurban freight train got out as far as St. Johns by yesterday, break ing the way through snow drifts and • started out again this morning. A ■ train from Fort Wayne is also push-j. ing its way through from that direction and it is hoped to clear the way through so that cars may bo running as soon as possible. An unusual case came to the attention of the court at Tiffin. 0., in which Royal Greek Ogden, fifteen years old, was adopted by his father. Myron M. Greek. The child was placed in a Cleveland children’s home after the death of his mother and was adopted from there by George W. and Louisa J. Ogden, of Alliance. As they are growing old the child’s father desired to again assume possession of his boy. Fifty tons of lemon drops, fifty tons of chocolate, fifty tons of gumdrops! That is a big order of sweets witli sugar as scarce as is is, but it represents a single purchase of the V. M. C. A. for candy stock for its canteens and huts with the American army at home and abroad, according to information just received here. The boys in khaki love sweet things—and the Y. M. C. A. is almost the sole agency to supply them. Even before General Pershing recommended that the Red Triangle take over the management of the whole canteen system in France, orders had been placed for the entire output of a lemon drop factory 1 and for the period of the war! This means about 15 tons a month for use in this country and abroad. A rumor has been current hero set ■ oral days that Andrew Krumenaker. well known man of the city, who lives alone on North Second street had been I found dead in his home. 1 his probab-. ly grew out of the wondering of some who had not seen him out for some time and “thought” ho might have be-1 come ill and frozen to death. Invest;-, gation by a reporter reveals the fact, that Mr. Krumenaker has been in Fort Wayne for two weeks or more.| I having been taken there to spend the ■ winter with a niece. He had not been in good health and was taken there , that he might be near the hospital in case he became worse and it was found necessary to take him there. Parties in Fort Wayne last week calfed and found him better. Chalmer Schlegel returned this afternoon to Lima. Ohio. He came yesterday to go to Portland where, his trial against Ferdinand Stauffer.] for $5,000 for personal injuries was to have been heard January 17. A tele-| phone message from the. Stauffer home was to the effect that Mr. Stauffer is confined to his bed on account of rheumatism and that is would be necessary to postpone the trial. Hence Schlegel's return to Lima where he is employed as a messenger boy in the office of the Western Union. He is planning to learn the teleprapher’s profession. The trial against Stauffer held in court here resulted in a disagreement of the jury, after which the case was sent to Jhe Jay circuit court on change of venue.

That’s True Monaea, Pa.—"My little boy. who is the youngest of three, was weak, nervous and tired all the time, so he was most unfit at school, and nothing seemed to help him.

Our men on the firing line are physically fit for military service because only about one man out of five was chosen to endure the hardships of thia fearful war. But we must not bo content with 20 per cent, in physical health of our American youth. Wa cannot afford to lose foil' men out of five because of physical unfitness. Such weaknesses can be cured. Many times the kidneys are to blame. If the kidneys are clogged with toxic poisons you suffer from stiffness in the kmes in tho morning on arising, your joints seem “rusty,” you may have rheumatic pains, pain in the back, stiff neck, headaches, sometimes swollen feet, or neuralgic pains—all due to uric acid or toxic poisons stored in the blood and which should be swept, out. Then procure at your nearest drug store Anuric (double strength). Thn cost, is 60 cents. Tills An-U-ric drives the uric acid out. Send Dr. Pierce, Invalids’ Hotel, Buffalo, N.
