PROVING POPULAR Plan of Hoosier Automobile Association in Establishing Bureaus MEETS WITH FAVOR In Every City-More Than 75,000 Plates Have Been Issued is Report. Indianapolis,' Ind., Jan. 14. —The isuance o£ automobile license plates in ’ twenty-four cities in Indiana outside of Indianapolis, under the auspices of the Hoosier State Auto Association is making a distinct impression of real service to automobile owners, according to a bulletin just issued by the assocation summarizing the work of the branch license bureaus. Incomplete returns from some of the cities make the grand total of licenses so far issued more or less of an estimate at this time, the automobile association announces, but it is declared that in round numbers no less than 75,000 sets of license plates have already been issued in the various branch offices. Considering that the secretary of state’s office had estimated the association would likely issue a total of 150,000 sets of plates for the eason, and that practically half of that number has already been issued, it is apparent that the auto owners in these various communities are taking to the innovation in a very apt manner. It is stated that the congestion in Indianapolis has been greatly relieved by the branch office work and the slate is saved quite an expense in clerical hire on this account. An opportunity is being given all auto owners to affilate with the state auto association, it is being pointed out that membershp support alone pays for the state-wide civic and safety campaign work or the organization. The cities issuing licenses are: Gary, Laporte, South Bend, Fort Wayne, Lafayette. Frankfort, Muncie, Hammond, Elkhart, Huntington, Wabash, Peru, Logansport, Marion, Kokomo. Anderson, Crawfordsville, Terre Haute, Richmond, Bedford, Vincennes. Evansville, New Albany and Jeffersonville. —, 1 Umbrellas of the customers in oue New York store are safeguarded by racks, each of which locks with a special key, which the owner of the umbrella keeps until he collects his property.

TO THE STATE FARM (Continued from Page one) this office, where the sheriff directed hiiu to open it. The suit case contained more than thirteen quarts of “white mule” and of course the sheriff gave the man a berth at the jail until the case could be disposed of or the prisoner give bond for his appearance. He could not produce the bond and he had been in jail since. FOLEY’S HAS NEVER FAILED January is a bad month for influenza, la grippe and bronchial troubles. It is unwise to neglect the slightest cough or cold. Foley’s Honey and Tar gives prompt relief, gets right at the trouble, covers raw inflamed surfaces with a healing coating, clears the air passages, eases stuffy breathing and permits sound, refreshing, health-building sleep. Mrs. F. A. Gibson, 1547 Collego Ave., Racine, Wise., writes: “Foley’s has never failed iu giving immediate relief and I am never without it.”

I must stand up for my sex % by Mrs. Mary Preston Cooking Expert and Food Analyst To understand how the argument started, you must know a few of the events that preceded it. I had made an analysis of Heekin’s Baking Powder and decided that no purer baking powder could bo made. (No foreign ingredients are added to create an unnatural effervescence or to give a false impression of quality.) So I tried it in my baking. The excellent results made me enthusiastic. Several of my co-workers tried it, too, and their results were as good as mine. There wasn't a single failure where Heekin’s was used. No wonder it is the favorite baking powder with thousands of women. I reported in glowing terms to The Heekin Company and said that Heekin’s should be the largest selling baking powder in America. ' “I know it,* said the sales manager, “and it would be if we could get every woman to buy one can and try it* “That ought to be easy,” I replied. And do you know what that sales manager said? He actually accused all women of being tied to their mothers’ apron strings where baking powder was concerned. He said that because their mothers had used some particular brand, they all thought that they had to use the same brand, and you couldn’t change them. Imagine that. Naturally I stood up for my sex. I told him that women were more progressive than men, and that quality was what counted with them every time. I said that if he should tell the American women about Heekin’s—that there is no better baking powder made, that there are 40 years’ experience back of Heekin’s, and that it costs much less than any of the other highgrade baking powders—every woman in America would be anxious to give it a trial. He said, “You’re a woman. Suppose you tell them.” I agreed, because I know the excellent results that any ( . t ( woman will get with Heekin’s. So confident am Ij that ' > I make this offer on behalf of The Heekin Company. > If anything you bake—using Heekin’s—is not tntiFely satisfactory to you, The Heekin Company will return the price of Baking Powder, and the price of the ingredients in whatever you bake. There are no “ifs” or “buts” to this offer. Simply tell the ingredients and the price of them, plus the price of baking powder, and send to The Heekin Company, Cincinnati, Ohio, with your name and address. Buy a can today at your grocer’s and try it. You’ll like Heekin’s. MH
