Entered at the postoffice In Decatur, Indiana, as second-class matter. It will be well for recalcitrant senators to remember that when they undertake to defeat the ratification of the i>eace treaty and the league of nations they will have as spectators of their actions millions of widows, orphans, lame, halt and blind, who were made such by the world war, and about two billions of human being who don't want to risk suffering in the same fashion from another reign of bloodshed and destruction. It will take something besides a bra re n:au —he would have to be a heartless man —to frustrate the hopes of these countless multitudes. Senator Kellog reports that he has found the people of his state —Minnesota—practically unanimous for a league of nations. And he made this discovery after Will H. Hays, chairman cf the Reublican National Committee. had delivered a long speech in St. Paul against President Wilson's prposal for such a league. This is Martin-Klepper day in Decatur, a happy one for the big family of station men and field employes who are meeting with the office force, bosses and have had the opportunity of hearing their business discussed by such leaders as Prof. Reed of Purdue, Charles Watkins of Muncie, E. W Puckett of Fort Wayne, and others interested in them, the while they enjoyed the fellowship of a great bum if of coworkers, a dinner fit for a king, good music and happy day. It is a great big forward step on the part of any concern when they thus hold gettogether meetings. It helps eve’-y one concerned including the patrons cf the plant for it gives a better understanding of the ideals of those at the head of the concern. The conference was a success and we congratulate the proprietors and all others who helped to make it so. While you ought to buy Victory bonds patriotically and hundreds of people would buy them no difference what the rate of interest or terms of contract, it is nevertheless a good business buy. They will be attractive securities, worth more than you pay for them and besides the issue must be sold that the government can meet the debts caused by the war. If they are not .sold the banks will be ‘ called upon to carry such a load that • business will have to stand still. It 1 means much to the business and pros 1

perity of the country. It means J much to you whether you be farmer, ’ I ‘merchant, laborer or in any line of ■ work. Thereiore it should bt no sac I ritice for you to take off vour coat 'and help make the drive a complete i success. Don’t stand on your own foot. That’s wbat you do if you don’t help to make the Victory drive a success. If the campaign fails it is sure to have a disastrous effect upon business and you know that means bad times for every one. Just now we are riding on the high tide of the ' most prosperous era ever known in this or any other country. Would you keep it there? Then help make the Victory drive a success. Buy bonds, help secure subserptions, put Adams county over. [ SOCIETY I Club Calendar Thursday. Helping Hand Society— Reformed church. C. W. B. M—Mrs. G. T. Burk. Friday. Queen Esther —Mrs. John T.

Every newspaper man has a perfect right to be fighting hot nearly every day cf his life. A newspaper man can say nice things about a man. can puff up his business, copmliment every member of his family, lie like a sinner to help a man out of his mistakes, but if a two line item gets into the paper that don't strike the man’s vanity, or if the newspaper man don’t conduct his private and public business according to Mr. Man's idea, he forgets all the favors the newspaper man has done him and goes on the war-path, against the paper.

WEAKNESS REMAINS LOHS AFTER Influenza Reports Show That Strength, Energy and Ambition Return Very Slowly to Grippe Patients. After an attack of influenza, doctors advise that nature be assisted in its building-up process by the use of a good tonic —tine that will not only put strength and endurance into the body, but will also help to build up and strengthen the runvlown cells of the brain One of the most highly recommended remedies to put energy into both body and brain is 810-feren —your physician knows the form-

ula—it is printed below. There’s iron in Bio-feren—the kind of iron that makes red blood corpusclee and creates vigor. There is lecithin also; probably the best brain invigorator known to science. Then there is good old reliable gentian, that brings back your lagging appetite. There are other ingredients that help to promote good health, as i you can see by reading this fonn- ; ula, not forgetting kolo. that great agent that puts the power of endurance into weak people. Taken altogether Bio-feren is a ' splendid active tonic that" will | greatly help any weak, run-down person to regain normal strength, I energy, ambition and endurance. ' Bio-feren is sold by all reliable j druggists and is inexpensive. For weakness after influenza patients ’. are advised to take two tablets I after each meal and one at bed ’ time — seven a day, until health, strength and vigor are fully restored. It will not fail to help you and if for any reason you are dissatisfied 'with results your druggist is authorized to return your money upon request —without any red tape of any kind. r Note to physicians- There is no se-re* about the formula of Bioferen. It is printed on every package. Here it is Lecithin: Calcium Gtycero-phosohate; Iron Peptonate, Manganese Peptonate; Ext. Nux Vomica: Powdered Gentian: Phenolphthalein; Olearsin Capsicum Kofo. •

[ H RED MM AND SIEAffl NERVES FOR MIN DOM PEOPLE The World Demands, Strong, Vigorous, Keen-Minded, Men and Women It has been said of Americans that they work their habits overtime. Many become nervous and inefficient by overwork. By worry, despondency, social affairs, robbing brain and body of needed rest; excessive use of tobacco, indulgence in strong alcoholic drink—excesses of every kind that burn up the vital powers so necessary in these trying- times Io make both men and women fit to be of help to themselves and others. It is time to be temperate in ail things. The man or woman with impaired nerves caused by impoverished blood lacks vigor, the ambition, the endurance and the keen mind of those who avoid excesses. Timidncs., despondency, fremblinK hand’, want nf confidence and even cowardliness, are due in a large measure to abused nerves. Tevpie with plenty of red blood eorponclew #tron?, healthy nerves have nc desire to shirk work and lean on others for guidance and support. There is hardly a nr pre-shattered ,uan or woman ; of an argnnic disease - in America tixlaj who cannot btxuiiK alert ar ’ ’rar :. y ;i‘d; vigi-’r-ma and energetic in body in a very few weeks and at trifling cost. To become strong and ambitious, to fee! that work h not drudgery; to hats steady nerves, abundance of red blood and power of endurance; tn be not only a man but bm uic« now go, a super m in, yen mast take sevvn tablets of Biv-fercu every day for seven days—and take them faithfully. Take two after each meal and one et bedtime and after sever, days take cr.c only after meal until the supply is exhausted. Then if you feel that any claim made tn this special notice is untrue if your nerves are not twice as steady as before; if you do not fe« i ambitious. mare vigorous and keen-minded, the pharmacist who dispensed the tablets to you will gladly hand you back just what you paid fur them. Bio-feren is without doubt the grandest remedy for nervous, rundown, weak, anaemic men and women ever offered direct through druggists and is net at all expensive. All druggists la this city auJ vicinity have a supply on hand—sell many packages.
