Indiana, as second-class matter BACK TO CAVE DAYS: — While the following from the Bpirit, a live newspaper prined at Paola. Kansas, may bo some overdrawn. it nevertheless expresses the feelings of a lot of people, east, west, north and south: “Fate seems to have made the year of 1921 extravagant in trials, sieges, besetments, demands, commands, tax ation, robberies, bankruptcies, thefts, diphtheria, smallpox, etc. The average home has been overrun with solicitors, beggars, government officers, state officials, inquisitors, promoters, ped dlers and busybodies. A special car of the state health board in charge of o richly gowned and jeweled young woman, came to town not long ago, and mothers were commanded to hurry to the depot and take in structions as to how to raise their babies; then came a government nurse, another unmarried lady, weighing the babies and instructing the mothers the sort of infants they must give birth to hereafter or quit the business; and now farmers are notified that they must pay a specialist from one of our higher instructions of learning to tell them how to feed the hogs. “Safe to say there are ?>» Miami county today 500 officials, national, state, county and township, and district, telling the people what they must do and what they can't do; spying into their homes, their private acrounts, their methods of life, laying down the law as to what they shall eat, drink, wear, buy, or spend; where they shall go and when; to bare their arms for vaccination, show the baby's back, recount all the family diseases, tell the inspecting nurse where you sleep and wdiy married or why single; show up your bank account, your debts, your toothbrush, and a record of the number of days your child has attended school the last month. “Upstandingly and outstandingly the average men. women, and children are exploited, restraind, assessed, directed, advised, prohibited, mulcted, admonished, damned, threateneed, ,examind, criticized, prayed for and prey-

The program will be a real feast of oratory with numbers by Jimmy Cox, Senator Pat Harrison, National Chairman Hull, George White and Joseph Tumulty. If they can’t start the fireworks we wouldn’t know who could! Mayor Shank, campaigning the other night for Mr. Beveridge, said some things taken as personal insinuations and now word has been sent to the mayor to “look a little out" or the New side will get dirty also. It's going to be some nasty little brush, we very much fear.

From the tone of the letteers being sent in from over the county we arc led to believe that the vote of 1920 in Indiana was not as was diaimed, a vindication of the new tax law, and similar letters will be found in nearly every paper in the state which will print them. JAY COUNTY TRUSTEE HAS BEEN ACTING UP If reports are true, charges of a most serious nature will shortly be preferred against a Jay county township trustee. The report has it that the trustee in question made indecent proposals to women who had solicited aid for their family, help being refused by the official, unless the women agreed to his proposals. Friends and relatives of the women are now investigating the matter and should the charges be sustained, it is understood action will be instituted , against the trustee. —Portland Republf , can.

SCIENTISTS REVOLUTIONIZE Treatment for Thin, Nervous, Run-down, Anemic Conditions of Children, Adults and Aged People. For the first time since we have conducted our drug store we are able to offer to our customers a rem edy for the above-named conditions that has been tested and approved by a famous nutritional scientist at one of our leading Medical Colleges. The remedy is known as SUSTO Nutritive Tonic Tablets. At some time or other we all get tired out, run down, thin, nervous, devitalized, and are without energy or ambition so we are irritable and easily annoyed. This is because we are not getting a sufficient amount of the es<ential strengthening, life-giving and growth-promoting elements from the food we eat. Leading medical men of the country have for some time been advoetting dietetic treatment instead of medicines for such conditions. Now science has come to our rescue and produced SUSTO. It lias been tested for many months and proved by a Professor of Physiological Chemistry at one of our greatest American Medical Colleges. In the report of his tests he ‘jays: “In all cases of ageneral rundown system, or in convalesence, SUSTO played a very important part in stimulating th eappetite and increas Ing body weight. In every instance where under nourished infants and children were given SUSTO, important body-weight increases were reegistered. Therefore we feel very confident that our customers can find, nothing better than SUSTO for all weak, thin -un-down nervous anemic conditions, 'or feeble old people, and delicate children. If you try it for one month and do tot feel better in every way we will reurn your money. For sale by Smith, Yager & Falk.
