TO HIGHWAY FUND Adams County Contributes $9,508 for Use of State Highway Commission THE INHERITANCE TAX Now Coes to Take Care of the Roads —Wells Co. Pays Sum of $17,929. Adams county estates have paid 59508 under the state Inheritance tax, since that law became effective, from October, 1913, to June 30, 1921, according to figures furnished by the state board of accounts. Since the j. lW went Into effect the state of Indiana has collected $2,921,632.94 * from the inheritance on estates, and since the fund was diverted into the state highway coffers, $2,188,867.3" has been paid in. Blackford county' has paid in the sunt of $7,319; Allen county, $97,670, and Wells county, $17,929. By an act of the 1917 legislature the money collected from inheritance tax purposes goes into the state highway fund. The amount of inheritance tax due front estates and from heirs is determined in an appraisement by a special appraiser, appointed by the court, usually the county assessor. Ills report is made to the court, and at a date set for a hearing, at which all heirs and legatees and interested parties are asked to appear. The cash value of said estate is determined, and apportionment made among the heirs, according to what each receives. A widow is exempted from payment of tax on tire first $lO,000 she may receive, and children and other heirs are exempt from payment on the first <2,000. Many estates in Adams county get by without the payment of the inheritance tax because the value is under slo,ol*o. A payment of 2 per cent, is taxed c namounts over SIO,OOO for a widow, and amounts over $2,000 for other heirs. BIRTHDAY PARTY. A delightful party was given Tuesday evening at the country home of Mr. and Mrs. S. F. Krill in honor of their son. Ralph’s birthday anniversary.

IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL Sunday School ’ Lesson ’ (By REV. p. U. FITZWATER, D, D., Tea, tier of English Bible In tho Moody Blblv Institute of Chicago.) (©, I*U, Western Newspaper Union.) LESSON FOR SEPTEMBER 4 FROM PHILIPPI TO ATHENS, LESSON TEXT-Acb, 1«:9; 17:13. GOLDEN TEXT—The angel of the Lord encampeth round about them that fear him, and dellvereth them.— Psalm 34:7. REFERENCE MATERIAL*—I and II Theai. PRIMARY TOPIC—God Takes Caro of Paul and Silas. JUNIOR TOPIC—A Midnight Experience In Philippi. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC —Courage In the Face of Persecution. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC —Preaching with Persecutions. I. Paul and Silaa in Jail (vv. 19-2(1), 1. The occasion (vv. 19-2-1). When the demon wns cast out of the maid her supernatural power wns gone; the source of revenue was dried up. Tills so exasperated her owners that they had Paul and Silas arraigned before the magistrates on a false charge. Those men ought to have rejoiced that such • a blessing had come to this poor girl. ThAy cared more for their gain than for her welfare. This Is true of the iniquitous crowding together of the poor in unsanitary quarters In our tenement districts and the neglect of precautions for the safety of employees In shops and stores. Without any chance to defend themselves they were stripped and beaten by the angry mob and then remanded to jail, and were made fast In stocks in the inner prison. 2. Their behavior in jail (v. 25). They were praying and singing hymns to God. It seems quite natural that they should pray under such conditions, but to sing hymns under such circumstances is astonishing to all who have not come Into possession of ,the peace of God through Christ. Even with their backs lacerated and smarting, and feet fast in stocks compelling the most painful attitude in the dungeon darkness of the inner prison, with a morrow before them tilled with extreme uncertainty, their hearts went up to God in gratitude. 3. Their deliverance (v. 2G). The Lord wrought deliverance by sending a great earthquake which opened the prison doors and removed the chains from all hands. 11. The Conversion of the Jailer (vv. 27-34). The jailer’s sympathy did not go out very far for the prisoners, for after they were made secure he went to sleep. The earthquake suddenly aroused him. He was about to kill himself, whereupon Paul assured him that the prisoners were all safe. This was too much for him. What he had heard of their preaching and now what he had experienced caused him to come as a humble- inquirer after salvation. Paul clearly pointed out the way to be saved —“Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ.” The word “believe” means to yield to and fully obey. The proof that the jailer was saved is threefold: 1. Transformation from brutality to tenderness. 2. Confession of Christ in baptism. 3. Ills whole household baptized. 111. The Magistrates Humbled (vv. 35-40). The earthquake brought fear upon the magistrates. They gave.leave for the prisoners to go, but now they refuse to go, claiming that their rights as Roman citizens have been violated, and demand a public vindication. Paul was willing to suffer for Christ's sake, but he used the occasion to show them that persecuting men who preach the gospel is an offense against the law of God and man. IV. Preaching in Thessalonica (vv. 17-19). At Thessalonica he found open hearts. He followed his usual custom of going first to the Jew (v. 1). After witnessing to the Jews he went to the Gentiles. Concerning the Christ he affirmed: 1. “It behooved Christ to suffer” (v. 3). No plainer teaching Is to be found anywhere than the suffering of Christ (Isa. 53). 2. The resurrection of Christ-from the dead (v. 3). 3. The kingship of Jesus (v. 7). The result of this preaching was that many Greeks, some Jews believed. V. Preaching in Berea (vv. 10-15). His 'method here was the same as at Thessalonica. He entered the Jewish synagogue and preached Jesus unto them. The Bereans received tlie gospel with glad hearts. Two striking things were said about them: 1. They received the message gladly. 2. They searched the Scriptures daily for the truthfulness of their preaching. All noble minds have (1) an openness to receive the truth; (2) a balanced hesitancy; (3) a subjection to rightful authority. Exhortation to Holiness. And the Lord make you to Increase and abound in love one toward another, and toward all men, even as we do toward you: to the end he may establish your hearts unblamable In holiness before God, even our Father at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all hjs saints.—l Thessalonians 3:12, 13. When God Appears. When we have broken our god of tradition, and ceased from our god of rhetoric, then may God fire the heart with His presence.—Emerson. ,

He immediately jumped to tho conclusion that the auto strangers had taken the blanket, and summoning Clifford Dull they started in pursuit. They headed off the men just as they were entering Decatur, recovered the blanket and returned to Willshire. The men •laimed to be from Bellefontaine, 0., and got off with nothing more serious than a verbal "blessing” from Detro. —.Willshire Herald. Reaching Decatur, the men secured the assistance of Sheriff Melchi who climbed upon the truck driven by the men and returned the blanket to tlie owner. They claimed they did not know how the blanket got on the truck, but Mr. Detro in no uncertain terms told them they did, and furthermore picked out the man who placed it there. The truck came here to move the household goods of Rev. O. E. Miller to DeGraff, Ohio. NUMBING YOUR MORNING SHOWER will do you a world of good—ask your doctor!

SHE DECLARES : THAT LIFE WAS A BURDEN' Indiana Woman Had Given 1 Up All Hope of Ever Being Well—Health Perfect ’ Now. “I’m so enthusiastic about Tanlac 1 my friends accuse me of talking übout ft all the time," said Mrs. Alex Green. Edwardsport, Ind. "I have good reason to believe in ' Tanlac, for It came to my rescue when ; I was about ready to give up all hope of ever being well again. I was so 1 completely run down and so weak that I wart just dragging myself around feeling that life was a burden. Nothing I ate agreed with me. and I had awful spells at times of ' palpitation of’ tlie heart and also awful smothering spells, and would ; gasp as if tlie next breath was going , j to be my last. “It’s almost beyond belief the way I Tanlac benefited me. J began to im- i prove (after tlie first few doses and | steadily grew better until today I'm in ; perfect health. In fact I don’t believe i I ever ate, slept, or felt as well as I Ido right now .
