DEFENDANT HAD DATES CONFUSED Huntington Man Failed To Show Up When Court Opened Today The defendant in the case of Samuel Craig vs. John Gallogly, of Huntington county, which was scheduled to be heard in the Adams circuit court this morning, failed to appear when the court convened.

The defendant operi ated a taxi cab in Huntington, the i complaint, and his cab collided with J the automobile driven by the plaintiff when he, the defendant drove his cab out of an alley at what the plain- ; tiff claimed was an excessive rate of speed.

MR. BROKAW COMES TO THE FRONT • Toll* Hl* Friend* and Neighbor* of Hi* Experience. Every Decatur resident should read what Mr. Brokaw says, and follow hie example. He has used Doan’s Kidney Pills and speaks from experience. Is there any need to experiment with imitations or untried kidney medicinesT Chancey Brokaw, 8. Bth St, Decatur, says: "Last winter my kidneys got out u< order, caused by a cold settling on them. My back ached considerably and I had lumbago pains across my back and hips. The action of my kidneys was Irregular. I used Doan’s Kidney Pills from Smith, Yager & Falk's Drug Store and they soon fixed me up in good shape. In a short time my back was well and Btrxng." Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t dimply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan's Kidney Pills—the same that Mr. Brokaw had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs, Buffalo, N. Y. TO DARKEN HAIR APPLY SAGE TEA A few applications of Sage Tea and Sulphur bring back Its vigor, color, gloss and youthfulness. Common garden sage brewed into a heavy tea with sulphur added, will turn gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully dark and luxuriant. Just a few applications will prove a reve laticn if your hair is fading, streaked or gray. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe at home, though, is troublesome. An easier way is to get a bottle of Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound at any drug store all ready for use. This is the old-time recipe improved by the addition of other ingredients. While wispy, gray, faded hair is not sinful, we all desire to retain our youthful appearance and attractiveness. By darkening your hair with Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound no one can tell, because it does it so naturally, so evenly. You just damp en a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning all gray hairs have disappeared, and. after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy, soft and luxuriant. ROOT TOWNSHIP HOME ECONOMIC CLUB MET WITH MRS. FONNER TODAY Mrs. Elizabeth Fonner was hostesfc to the Root Township Home Economics Club this afternoon. The assistant hostesses were Mrs. Mary Fleming, Mrs. Edith Johnson, and Mrs. Helen Bennett. The subject of “Shot Cuts in Keeping the Kitchen in Good Order,” was discussed briefly by the members in answering to roll call. A very interesting paper on “Floor and floor’ coverings and an improvised bath room,” was read by Gertrude Gage. Other topics discussed were: “Exhibit of Homemade Rugs,” “Dyeing Cotton and Woolen Rags," and “Wearing Qualities of Home-made Rugs.” The next meeting will be held on Tuesday, June 13, with Mrs. J. L. Singleton, acting as hostess. WHAT HONOLULU MOVIES OFFERED United Press Service. i Honolulu, May 25. —When anyone can see seven murders, as well as sundry other disasters for sl.lO, it is time for censorship of the movies, ac- . cording to Rev. Albert W. Palmer, pastor of the Central Union church. Just to see what the movies actually contain, I recently made the rounds of a number of shows," declared Rev. Palmer. “I expended sl.lO, and among other things, here is what I saw: “Seven murders. In oue murder, the man was rolling from the top of a house with a ‘dull thud.’ I saw three cases of adultery. I also saw 12 masked bandits, and I don't know how many unmasked ones. There was a bandit gang in one of the pictures, and also saw a crap game. “To cap it all, the sub-title of one film bore the words: ‘A dimple on the knee is worth two on the cheek.’ “It’s true for censorship of some sort.” INITIATION THURSDAY EVE The Ladies Mooseheart Legion wil] have a meeting and initiation at the Moose hall Thursday evening at 7:30 o’clock. A pot luck supper will also be held and all members are requested to be present. 123t2 Q —— CHILDREN IN SPRING TIME Mrs. C. OsbornJ 7812 'Hillside Rd., O., writes: “My granddaughter was trouble 'with a congh for nearly two years. She took Foley’s Honey and Tar and her cough is now gone. It loosened the phlegm sa she could, raise it easily.’’ Foley s Honey and Tar is just wfaat children should have for feverish colds, coughs, ‘snuf- ■ files” and tight, wheezy breathing Be sure to get Foley's. It checks croup j a»d whooping cough, too. Sold everyI where.

PLEASURE MOTORISTS PREFER SECONDARY ROADS IN INDIANA Indianapolis, Ind., May 24. —Secondary roads in the Indiana highway system are rapidly responding to continued maintenance and in many section of this state pleasure motorists say they prefer them to rigid types. This statement was made by members of the state highway commission following a tour of fourteen state roads in northern and western Indiana. The commisson is this week inspecting primary and secondary roads in other localities with a view of deciding upon its 1923 building program. On these trips highway officials not only view the condition of state roads, note work in progress, but as far as possible get in personal touch with people of the localities in order to learn first hand how state maintaiin roads are meeting traffic requirements. On a recent tour the commission followed state road 31 from Danville to Montazuma; 10 to Covington; 33 to Attica; 9 to near Kentland; 7 and 8 to near Wheatfield in Porter County; 50 to North Judson; 15 to Knox; 44 to Plymouth; 1 (Range Line) to South Bend; 2 (Lincoln Highway) through Elkhart to Goshen and about half way to Fort Wayne. The return was via 27 throught Warsaw, North Manchester and Silver Lake, thence to Peru and from Peru to Indianapolis over the Range Lins. From Ligonier to Ft. Wayne the state highway department has practically rebuilt with gravel a section of more than 30 miles of the Lincoln highway. The maintenance division now his this strench in such shape that it truthfully can be called a boulevard, highway officials say. According to citizens of Ft. Wayne and Ligonier, parts of this road were impassable last year. The commission has assured the citizens now since it has been taken into the system, it will be kept an all-year road until such time it is possible to give it a hard surface pavement. In ths 540-mile trip highway officials say they found only a few bad places in the secondary roads. In nearly all cases this was close to the larger cities where truck traffic is heaviest. Some of the real bad spots noted are due ,the commission says, to inferior drainage. This is being remedied and the roads widened and ditched as fast as farmers enrouto move back the line fences. Cleveland —The efficiency “sock” has supplanted the rolled stocking. It’s much shorter and doesn’t need rolling.
