Read this from John Wanamaker, the nations greatest retail business man: "No merchant nowadays ought to expect the public to give him patronage unless he comes out publicly and tells the public what reasons he has to expect its patronage. And he ought to do this in the newspapers. That’s the way for him to stand fair and square with the people whom he expects to come in and buy his goods. "Let his advertisement be the truthful news of what he is doing and let him print it in the newspaper where news belongs and then he will be playing fair and square with people and deserving of the public’s confidence.’’

"A short time ago I was one of the most nervous and miserable persons on the earth, but thanks to Tanlac I’m well and happy now’’ said Mrs. Mina Raber. 446 Farnsworth Ave.. Aurora, 111. "It was just about two years age that 1 began to be distressed after every meal. I had awful smothering spells at times and ray heart beat so irregularly that I often thought 1 wouldn’t live through the attack. Headaches were the bane of my existence and J shudder even now when I think of them. My back hurt me, too and it was just agony for me to bend over and straighten up again. ■Tanlac has done for me far more than I ever expected and I’m like a different person altogether. In fact. I'm in perfect health now. In my opinion, Tanlac is the best medicine under the sun.” Tanlac is sold in Decatur by Smith, Yrlger A Falk's and by leading druggists everywhere. , Mr. and Mrs. Frank Andrews of R.

A BIG INDUSTRY Decatur Beet Factory Has Contracted Half Million Tons of Beets DURING EIGHT YEARS Outlook Not As Bright As I is Desired—Mr. McLain Still in Washington. Here is a summary of tonnage contracted by the Decatur factory of the Holland-St. Louis Sugar company over several years: 1914— Total tonndge 42,694 tons. 1915— Total tonnage 73,523 tons. 1916— Total tonnage 45,223 tons. 1917 — Total tonnage 42,448 tons. 1918 — Total tonnage 49,367 tons. 1919 — oTtal tonnage 62,048 tons. 1920 — Total tonnage 100,737 tons. 1921— Total tonnage 65,000 tons. The above figures are of interest in that they show that there has been a healthy growth in the beet sugar industry in Indiana from the starL It has always been the practice in the past with the company to guarantee the farmer a fixed price per ton for the beets produced by his efforts. The farmer knows in advance what he is to receive and the company prides itself that it has always mot its pay- | ments promptly. In order that the j farmer may share in the profits of the company, the companies have granted a sliding scale whereby the farmer is protected should the price 'of sugar be more than the guaranteed price. The year, 1919, this bonus I amounted ot $3.50 per ton, netting the farmer $12.60 a ton for his beets. It is unfortunate that the plans for the Beet Sugar companies for 1922 are somewhat unsettled because of the unsatisfactory outcome of the past year’s activities and the lack of certantity as to what encouragement the industry will receive from congress. Much depends on the permanent tariff bill that is now beforp congress and the farmers and sugar men as well are anxiously waiting for more definite assurance from Washington to justify the companies offering the farmer a price somew-hat near the figure that - was paid last year. The uncertaintity for the future betokens the need for greater co-opera-tion and friendliness in the coming year on the part of all interested in the industry in order that the com-

panics may successfully weather the present business depressions. Mr. C. M. McLain, general manager of the Holland-St. Louis company, is still tn Washington representing his ccmpany. The sugar beet Industry is one of the largest ones in the United States, expends annually for labor, beets, coal, lime and transportation over $400,000,000.

THIN. RUN-DOWN MEN AND WOMEN Put on Weight and Are Made Strong and Husky By Taking Susto.

This has been proven by a Professor of Physiological Chemistry, who is one of the greatest nutritional experts ini this country at one of our leading Medi-; dal Colleges. • I After a long series of tests with SUSTO Nutritive Tonic Tablets, ex tending over many months, he says that SUSTO demonstrated its power to stimulate the appetite, increase bodily weight and strength.

POPE BENEDICT REPORTED DYING (Continued from page one) simultaneously the bells of all these 1 edifices began tolling to summon the , people for the purpose of offering up ; prayers for the Pope. At the same moment when the final sacraments were administered thousands of people in Rome were on their i knees, either in one of the churches , on in private chapels. The ceremony itself was simple and i affecting. As soon as the Pope’s pri- : vate confessor had finished confess-; ing him, the doors of the sick room ! : were thrown open and the prelates i i, and relatives assembled in the anti-1 - chamber entered. At the same time
