C., June 21. —(Special to Daily Democrat)—Four persons were burned to death in a tire that destroyed a six-story apartment building. Many of the twenty-five families were still in bed when tiarnes burst out along the second floor corrider. Corridors were immediately filled with smoke. Doors of apartments had automatic locks and when occupants rushed into the halls to escape they could not return to their rooms because (he doors were locked. Oite mast leaped from the sixth floor and missed the firemen’s net. He was a war veteran, taken prisoner by the Germans and bis leg was amputated while a prisoner of war. Influenza reports from the nation indicate a decrease In the number of cases compared with last year, but an increase in the proportion of deaths. This is accounted for by the fact that a large percentage of the deaths ocI curred among persons who had taken i the disease the previous year and had not made a full recovery.

HAPPIEST MAN IN' STATE OF INDIANA LAMBERT WAS WORRIED ABOUT WIFE—REJOICES NOW OVER RESTORATION TO HEALTH "You can tell them Tanlac has helped my wife, too, and of all tho people who have made statements about being benefited 1 don't believe any have more cause to feel thankful," said Grover Terre Haute, lnd., in conversation with n Tanlac representative, a few days ago. Mr. I,anibert Is proprietor of tho Terre Haute Barber Supply company, and hIR standing and influence as a business man and citizen are too well known to roqulre further comment. "Tanlac has brought health and happiness to my wife," added Mr. Lambert, "and has made me the happiest man in all Indiana. About a year ago, while the 'Flu’ was going the rounds j sho had a very serious case. 1 ! thought she would never recover and when she did finally get up she was as weak as a baby anil nothing seemed to help her regain her strength. She was left without any appetite and ; with such a badly deranged stomach that she could rardly eat anything. She complained of a dull pain in h p r stomach and suffered all the time with indigestion . Her kidneys worried her constantly and her back pained her so severely that she could hardly stand it. She could neither cook our meals or do any of her housework and had to remain in bed tor weeks at a time. She was nervous that the door bell or telephone ringing or any little noise would upset her. . “She felt discouraged and despondi ent, and several times 1 was greatly , worried because her chances of recovery seemed so slim. But some won- ! derful things happen in this world and the way Tanlac has helped her is one -of them. One afternoon while look- \ ing over the paper I noticed Tanlac recommended so highly that I bought a bottle. The first bottle did not seem to help her much, but after taking the second bottle I noticed some difference In the way she rested at night and by the time she had finished her • fifth bottle she was like an entirely different woman. She can eat anything she wants and as much as she wants without the least tremble from I it. Her nerves have quieted down until she sleeps the whole night through and gets up mornings feeling fine. t She is now doing all her housework. - including the cooking, and we sit 3 down and enjoy our meals together f like we did in the good old days before she was taken sick. She has a good healthy color and 1 can tell from - the way her face has filled ou), that l she has gained several pounds in weight. She says life is worth living now. and words cannot express the I gratitude 1 really feel over what TanII lac has done. Tanlac is sold in Decatur at Smith, Yager & Falk’s, in Berne at Stengel y & Craig’s and in Geneva at F. C. , Deitsch’s drug store. 1 NO JOB FOR NERVOUS MAN (Atlanta Constitution) ' No wonder Mexico's new provisional president “looks sick.” A job like that’s enough to make him. f — —— Wasted Money.

KANSAS 1^ HAPPY I Farmers of Great Southwest State Wearing Smile That Won’t Come Off A GOOD WHEAT CROP Quality of Grain is Best in Years—Danger from the Hot Winds is Past The wheat harvest of Kansas has j gun, says tho Chicago Tribune. Thou- j sands and thousands of acres in southern Kansas are being turned from fields of waving gold to patches of tubble. ’ % j? By tho latter part of next week the harvest will he in full blast. Seldom before nas Kansas gone into I a harvest with such favorable condiI tions. Perfect ripening weather has I prevailed for the third largest wheal j crop of the state. No blight has caused damage. So far, labor is plentiful. , Acting under the authority of Gov. Allen, fifty men will be released temporarily from the state prison and about sixty from the reformatory, to assist In the harvest. Grain Is High Grade. The quality of the wheat this year is high grade. Government estimates on acreage and yield are being exceeded The shortage of transportation is one I drawback, but that will be met by storage. Although the state’s reports estiI mated the yield for Kansas at 110,000.11 000 bushels there is no doubt among • I investigators for private grain firms' i that the estimate is low by 5,000.000 Jto 15,000,000 bushels. In tho first .! place, they say the state’s estimate on •' acreage is too low at 7,770,000 acres, i • I Eight million acres is nearer correct. • , j And almost 100 per cent, of that acre- ! . age will be cut, according to present ‘ outlook. I The average stand of the fields is ’ exceptionally high. Stands are thick | and close. It has not gone to straw . j nearly so much as last year, j Danger from Hot Winds Past. Damage from baking hot winds is ,! an impossibility now, unless nature i j overturns all her laws. Vegetation I I from here to the Panhandle is as green |' as a flourishing shamrock and hot ’ 1 wind's can't come off of such as that. -I While the 1920 Kansas wheat crop is : estimated third in bushels produced, , it probably is’going to "give Kansas ' (lie most valuable wheat surplus th>' state has ever had, including the approximate 50,000.000 bushels surplus j already on hand. Extensive plans are being made for storing this year's crop. Shortage of I shipping tonnage and railroad equipm°nt. and the evident certainty of obtaining better prices later are the impelling motives. Associations of wheat growers are adopting slogans, all carrying the message of storing, tlie wheat.
