FINANCEHIGH OR LOW?— Not that it means more jingles for our particular jeans, but we have relished all along the thought that {he world's greatest gold supply is ours, America's. “Three billion five hundred million!” What a pile of glittering shekels it must make! More than half of the gold in the whole world! Think of it! Stow-ed away in neat piles in sub-treasury vaults, and the world owing us still more! Personally we never understood much finance. It's too deep, but we handed it to our fellow citizens who did understand it sufficiently to garner to our shores all this gold. ■ That's ■ high finance, we said. Now comes the New York World with the news that we have not only the greatest stack of gold, but also a pile of German paper marks, whi it if baled like hay and piled on end would overshadow the Woolworth

Building, probably. Americans own 80.000,000,0iJ marks. Their par value would bo about $20,000,000,000. However, t financial bargain counters. Ive pickol them up for a mere $904,000,000. T>day they are w-orth $50,000,000. V> e only lost $859,000,000, or about eight dollars per person. « S - “Never touched me,” some one says. “I didn’t buy marks.” Wrong again, Mister. This flyer in - gold, and the one in marks, said to be ■ the greatest financial bubble of all

time, touches every one in the land. Americana worked, either with hands or mind, to produce the wealth that begot this huge pile of gold. Some of the gold, or it* equivalent In currency, we swapped for German marks. What really purchased both gold and marks was the produce of our farms, mines or factories, phis our labors. Today, like old Midas, we are gold poor. Our $3,500,000,000 is idle, a drug to our trade Our bales of marks are useless and of steadily decreasing value. Our flyer in currency may have been profitable to the jugglers who engineered it, but to us it seems like pretty low finance.—lndianapolis Times. Though Mr. Vestal is supposed to draw a salary of $7,500 he is really getting considerable more than that according to charges undenied. He has been drawing in addition to his salary a total of at least $6,600 for clerk hire and paying one secretary $2,000. This leaves over $12,000 and there are other side issues which bring him a few dollars here and there. We should think he had something to explain about this and that the voters would want to know why he is drawing this money and turning it over to members of his own family. If he can’t afford to go to congress for the legular salary he should hunt some other job and it's quite probable that’s what he will have to do after November 7tb returns come in. The people don’t like to be fooled about these matters and usually prefer to be represented by a man who wants to do things for his district rather than devoting his time to discover some method by which bo can increase his own bank account. .John Tyndall has lived his life in

Adams county and we know him. 110 li?s always been anxious ao serve his fellow man in every way he can, is henoet and is capable. He was urg- • d to become the candidate for congress by his friends who felt this district needed just such a man to represent them. They are loyal to him now and will be on election day. Hundreds of republicans have announced their intention of supportins bim with their ballot and this <s true not only in Adams county but

BB JM'll In 1818 Union township paid $3,039.40 in taxes for state purposes while this year they paid $5,427.53 —the real answer to the “bunk" handed out that the state does not derive any more money under the new law than the old. About the same proportion of increase exists ; in every township in the county and in the state and in addition the new law has caused a terrific increase in local taxes by making it possible to Issue more bonds. The tax trouble is due to the law aud to nothing else ind so long as the power is centralized in a few important feeling mon, in Indianapolis you Will have high taxes. The democratic party is pledged to repeal the law if given the power and that’s the most important state issue in the coming election. The Standard OH company of flow Jersey, mammy of them all, has declared a 400% stock dividend, in creasing their capital from $110,000,000 to $625,000,000. It beats all how these big companies have taken their share of loss in the return to normalcy, doesn’t it? —- • ■ — Dancing every evening ELK’S CARNIVAL. o „ Commends Jail and Infirmary of Thia County (Continued from page one) ventilator.

Bring Back Its Natural Color, Gloss and Attractiveness 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 revelation 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 Surpbur Compound at any drug store all ready for use. This is the old-time recipe improved by the addition of other ingredients. While wispy, faded hair is not sinful, we all desire.’ to, retain; our youthful appearance ahd Uttructiyeness. By darkening your hair with Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound, ino one can tell, because it <joes it so naturally- so evenly. You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one strand at a time; by morning *ll gray hairs have disappeared, and, after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy, ♦soft and luxuriant.
