A good deal of food, unwisely chosen, does weigh the body down and clog the digestion, and dull the brain. Why put on the hobbles? Grape-Nuts is a breakfast or lunchtime dish for those who want food efficiency, and mind and body efficiency. Grape-Nuts satisfies and nourishes. It delights the taste. It is ready to servo whenever you are ready to eat. And it digests easily, quickly and completely—leaving no handicap of heaviness and drowsiness. Grape-Nuts is the food for health and action.

| slowly, organize and hold frequent I gatherings In the church •houses of our I rural districts. It will be time both I enjoyably and profitably spent. The roads of thia section are coming to be more and more of a problem. With traffic getting heavier and heavier all the time, and the demands on the highways becoming correspondingly heavier, what is to be done and how it is to be done, and especially how it is to be paid for are matters in which every citizen of Adams county is interested. We are going to have to stay on the earth. Flying machines do not seem to be coming into such common use that they will do for hauling farm produce and livestock, but it does seem that every week sees the motor truck bringing something new to our doors. They take up a good deal of the road, it is true, but the roads are public and we can’t forbid them their usage. We can, however, secure better roads by taxing the trucks according to weight or size of tire-spread. And now that the trucks have entered into competition with the railroad companies they should assist in keeping up the roads just as the railroads are forced to keep up their roadbeds. The proper taxation of the truck traffic will go a long way toward solving the good road proposition in this country. NOTICE Special band meeting Friday evening. This is a very important meeting. and every member should be there. Will go through entire program. CORRESPONDENT.

COX OPENS FIGHT (Continued from page one) votes were counted. We have not retreated a step.” The declaration was taken in some quarters here as indicating Cox would again seek the nomination for president in 1924. Cox charged “the present leaders of the republican party have forsaken the soul of Abraham Lincoln for the spleen of Henry Cabot Lodge" and declared the administration was responsible for present industrial conditions because it deserted the policies of Woodrow Wilson. "The distress in Russia is chargeable to the terrors of sovietism; the distress in America to the treachery of Lodgeism." Senator Ppmerene, Ohio, the other speaker at the banquet attacked the republican vote on seating Senator Newberry. J. P. Tumulty, former secretary to President Wilson, and other party leaders, attended the banquet.

C. W. HITCHCOCK & FAMILY. Miss Mildred Niblick is suffering from a severe cold today and was unable to be at work. BE RIO OF THAT ACHE If you are a sufferer with lame back, backache, dizziness, nervous ness and kidney disorders, why don’t you try the remedy that your own neighbors recommend? Ask youi neighbor! Mrs. Nellie Meyer, 710 Marshal! St., Decatur, says: “I could not have kept going if it had not been for Doan’s Kidney Pills. 1 had kidney complaint and my back ached in cessantly. I couid get no relief day or night. When I stooped I got dizzy spells and black spots floated before my eyes. My kidneys acted irregu larly and I knew they were the cause of the trouble. I used Doan’s Kidney Pills from Callow * Kohne’s Drug Store and they proved to be just what I needed. It was wonderful how quickly they stopped the backache and regulated my kidneys. Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan's Kidney Pills —the same that Mrs. Meyer had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N. Y. AILING WOMEN OF MIDDLE AGE Mrs. Linton Tells How Helpful Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound is at This Period Denver Colorado.—“l have taken Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound forse ve n years and I cannot tell you the good it has done me. It is good for young and old and I always keep a bottle of it in the house, for I am at that time of life when it calls for Lydia E. Pinkham’s help. Myhus- \ band saw your ad. in the papers and said ■ ■ —-I l‘You have taken everything you can think of, now I want you to take Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound! ’ So I let him get it, and I soon felt better and he told me ‘I want you to take about six bottles. ’ So I. did and I keep house and do all my own work and work out by the day anti feel fine now. I tell every one about the Vegetable Compound, for so many of my friends thought I would not get well.’’-Mrs. R. J. Linton, 1850 West 23d Avenue, Denver, Colorado. After reading letters like Ibe above, and we are constantly publishing them, why should any woman hesitate to taj.e Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound if she is in needof help? It brings relief where other medicines fail.

J. Borman on North Fourth street, at 6:30 last evening, all bundled up, prepared for a coasting party. They brought along their sleds, all descriptions, and at 7 o'clock were on their way to the Bowers hill. On arriving Marie Murtaugh and Peggy Franks tried their luck building a fire, but did not succeed until they had borrowed some oil, and in the meantime the rest , were scouting around to find the steepest hill, but one of the girls said, around here there were nothing but ‘bumps,” so at last, this said girl sure found a peach of a "bump,” which took us across the river. We stayed out there until 9:30 and didn’t get a bit cold, for we had the bon-fire and served hot drinks. We then started for the Peoples restaurant, where, on arriving, they had the tables set for he lucky thirteen, as that was the number that participated in the wonderful three-course dinner. Mr. Baker, Mr. Kintz and their force certainly know how to put up a good feed. From there we went again to the home of Mrs. Borman, where we played five hundred and discussed the good times of the evening, talking about different pretty stunts some of the bunch pulled off while going over the “bump" across the river. Prizes at five hundred were won by Miss Winifred Kitson. Those present of the club members were Misses Cecil and Esther Miller.
