Then your vitality is so low that nature cannot resist germ diseases. You are an easy victim. Biliousness, sluggishness, head ache, dull eyes and coated tongue are danger signals which you cannot afford to neglect. They mean that your b»ly Is full of poison waste matter which should have b<>en carried off. The One Day Doctor regulates and tones up the stomnch, liver, kidneys and bowels. In twenty four hours it cleans you out thoroughly and makes you feel like new. Not a v tolent physic, but a scientific, treatment prepared by a physician of long experience. Don't neglect yourself at this time of the year when there is so much flu and other sickness. At the first sign of trouble take the One Day Doctor. You'll be surprised how well it will make you feel. If you are already suffering from cold, grippe or fin. nothing is better than Ow Day Doctor. By throwing off the poisons, it. gives nature a chance . to stump out the disease. 25 cents at ail druggists. Absolute satisfacf ion or yottr money refunded—One Dey Doctor Co., Bourbon, Ind.
j“BEST IN THE WORLD''SITS FT. WAYNE MAN I— '■ Fred Adams Was All Run Down But Is Brimful of New Life and Energy. ‘ This is certainly the best medicine in the world,” said Fred Adams, as he purchased his fourth bottle of Tan lac the other day. “and 1 want my statement published in all the paper* so everybody may know what It has done for me.” Me. Adams lives on R. F. D. 9. Ft Wayne. He is employed by the Gen ieral Electric company as machinist 'and is highly respected by all who know him. "Yes. sir.” added Mr. Adams, “I count myself lucky that I got Tanlac | Why. I have already gained ten pounds ,in weight and have just finished my third bottle. Ntot only that but 1 I have gotten rid of a case of stomach 'trouble that kept me miseraable for two years as well as all the after-ef-fects of a case of 'flu' that came near putting be out of business. "When the 'flu' epidemic struck us about a year ago I was in such an awful run-down condition on account of indigestion that I was an easy victim. 1 had a spell that used me pretty rough and when I did get up my stomach. which had bothered me for two years, troubled me worse than ever Besides that my head ached continual ly and I was so nervous I thought J would go distracted. I tried to work but couldn't make it to save my life I was bilious most of the time, my kidneys were out of order and my color was bad. I also had the backache and felt tired and worn-out all the time. “Since I began taking Tanlac I have gained ten pounds and feel like an entirely different man. 1 can eat just anything set before me and I never feel a pain or a sign of indigestion any more. Neither my kidneys nor liver bother me any my headaches and backache are things of the past. I have also gotten rid of that tired feeling and am just brimful of new life and energy. Tanlac certainly does the work —at least it has in my case and now when I hear anyone complain of feeling run-down and bad I always tell them about Tanlac.” Tanlac is sold in Decatur at Smith. Yager and Falk’s, in Berne at Stengel & Craig's and in Geneva at F. Q Deitsch's Drug Store.

THE FIRST IN COUNTRY Evansville, Indiana, Is the first city in the country »o contribute its entire share of the "Books for Everybody” fund of 62.000.00(1. The ■ “Books for Everybody" project to I which Evansville has given such • prompt support has been launched by the American Library Association In its effort to promote the establish 1 ment of public libraries throughout the country, to reach the 60,000.000 persons who do not now have access to libraries. The contribution was paid by check p from the Evansville Patriot Fund and p was forwarded to the New Aork offlee of the American Library Associa- „ tlon by Howard Roosa. editor of the f Evansville Courier and president of the Evansville Library Association. "The Patriot Fund Committee felt , that your campaign was a continuation of war activities, or of activities growing out of the war,” said Mr. ' Roosa, "and for that reason they could contribute from a fund which heretofore had been used for strictly I war purposes." | ’ Thousands of men brought Into I r contract with books through the war I r work of the American Library Asso- I ciation have returned to communi- I ’ ties where there are no libraries.' At ' present only 794 of the 2.9t’>4 counties of the country contain a library of 5,000 volumes or more. MOOSE DANCE There will be u dance at the Moose hall Thursday evening. .
