The public wants to know what—where—how much.” In speaking of good will and policy advertising, he said the expense for these two forms should not be imposed on merchandise advertising. "The account should be divided to show exactly the expenditure for ' each," he advised. "This will also help to tlx u proper conception of the advertising expenditure as not an expense, but an investment that helps earn a net.” Hope Couple Have Been Married For 67 Years Hope, Oct. 23. —Four persons who attended the wedding of Mr. nnd Mrs. Franklin Herron, aged S 6 and SO respectively attended the sixty fourth anniversary recently.

Cannot recollect when the quarrel . begun: t Rut David, the venerable, remembers the day, So believing the next door neighbor the devils to pay. The city of I) with glance quite discreet, And an eye for grading and improving the streets; Resolved with whereases of no uncertain tone. To place on the same some eighteen inches of stone.. Hut where is the lino? was the question hard pressed, John said it was east. Dill said it was west; Te city said west, and the grading begun, Hut John, the contrary, could not be outdone. So he hied to a lawyer, Paul, the silent by name. And told him plainly the city’s slick game; And promised ini some of his wife’s gold coin. To draw up the papers and the city enjoin. Tlte courts with its power o’er earth, beast and man. Sent forth his decree and placed on ' the city a ban; And William, the son of illustrious sire, Ground his teeth in a rage, and from his eyes snapped fire. And the lawyers all smiled, for in this they’ll agree. They had given lots of advice, but received never a fee; They said, “just to think, we will surely receive A fee to buy grub and our hunger relieve.” And straigtway the lawyers with speech soft and sleek. inveigled the grocers by some sort of a trick, To sell them some groceries and flour on tick. Os lawyers, a number engaged in the brawl, Fat, lean and saucy, long, short and tall; There was Paul G.. the silent, and Beatty, his pard, ; And John T. whose girth will measure a yard. And. J. J. from Portland, by the west sldo was called. And the city attorney, whose head is quite bald; And all went into win, and so frequent the spat. The people all thought they were Kilkeny cats. Last, but no least, in this historical ditty, Were the six solemn “dads’ of this beautiful city; They stepped in the breach and, so it is said, Dashed to earth all hopes of the lawyers for bread. The fight was settled as the city thought best, And the contestants satisfied, on the east and the west; And 'tis said that sage John with con siderable vim, Hugged David, then cried and hugged him again. And peace and Imrmony prevails on that street, And neighbor hails neighbor where- ‘ ever they meet; And the people all say, and its not , meant in fun. That a statue is due the. Council of ' the year '9l. For they settled the line of Chestnut ' and Russell, They stopped all the racket, turmoil and bustle. Where billows once rolled, waters now calmly run, And all done by the Council of the , year '9l. Will You Spend 50c On Rat-Snap to Save $100? One 15c pkg. can kill 50 rats.

SULPHUR IS BEST TO CLEAR UP UGLY, BROKEN OUT SKIN Any breaking out or skin irritation on face, neck or body is overcome quickest by applying Rowles MenthoSuipher, says a noted skin specialist. Because of its germ destroying properties, nothing has ever been found to take the place of this sulphur prepartion that instantly brings ease from the itching, burning and irritation. Rowles Mentho-Sulphur heals eczema right up, leaving the skin clear and smooth. It seldom fails to relieve tho torment or disflfigurement. A little jar of Rowles Mentho-Sulphur may be obtained at any drug store. It is used like cold cream. ... » Birthday Surprise Held Near Berne A very pleasant birthday surprise party was given at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Dolch, five and onehalf miles northwest of Berne, on the evening of October 22 in honor of their daughter, Anna’s, eighteenth birthday.

Start Checking Up 5-Acre Corn Yields Lafayette, Ind.. Oct. 21. —Checking up of results In the five-acre corn growing contest in Indiana was started this week by ten of the best corn breeders In the state, working under ntisplces of the Indiana Corn Growers' association and the agricultural extension department of Purdue university. ] These men met October 16 at Purdue! to arrange their schedules and outline the details of their work which will be practically completed by the I end of the month. "Due to the exceptionally dry weather, the enrollment will he somewhat lowered, but figures sent in from some of the counties show there will be a good deal of interest in the demonstrations! work," said R. S. Thomas, of the soils and crops extension staff ot Purdue. "Each five-acre plot is being used as a demonstration of better methods, some showing increased yields from use of fertilizer, some the value ot pure-bred seed corn, field selected and tested seed, and other practical pointers necessary for best corn production.” The five-acre corn contest was organized in 1914 as a co-operative project between the corn growers’ association and extension department of Purdue, for the purpose of stimulating interest in economic corn production as well as to show the relation of type of ears to yielding ability. Interest in this work has grown steadily, until the enrollment is around a thousand. Medals are given annually by the corn growers’ association to all the contestants who produce 75 bushels or more per acre on a five-acre tract. Those with 100 bushel yields, or anything over 500 bushels off of five acres, get gold medals; 85 to 100 bushels, silver medals and 75 to 85 bushels, r bronze medals. The men measuring up the yields this year will be: Peter J. Lux, Shelbyville; Ed Lux, Waldron; John W. Kerlin, Rockfield; S. W. Taylor, Booneville; W. D. Littlejohn, Kentland; W. L. Woodfield, Lafayette, route 3; J. I S. Helms, Richmond; Fred L. Kem, I Marion, and G. L. Kerlin, Franklin. W. A. Ostrander and R. S. Thomas, I of Purdue, will assist in a few counties, although the work will be done largely by the men representing the J corn growers’ association. o Man Finds Tomato j Which Resists Wilt i Indianapolis, Oct. 24. —Science has come to the aid of Charles Nrehob, a I local vegetable gardener, in develop- ’ ing a strain of tomato that resists the _ wilt disease which causes such a heavy I loss each year in Indiana’s tomato crop. Each year until 1917 Mr. Nrehob lost many of his tomatoes from the wilt. > He answered an advertisement for one variety, which was supposed to > bo resistant to the wilt. It withstood the disease but failed to produce a uni- . form and easily marketed tomato. > Nrehob got in touch with agricultural [ extension workers from Purdue Uni- ! versity. He was advised to select the . nicest, tomatoes and save the seed i from these. This was done and he I now has developed a strain of real , Marvel that resists the disease and produces a uniform crop. Nrehob is co-operating with the I Purduo extension men in developing I strains of cabbage that resist yellows and other serious crop diseases that exist in the state. He has found that t the application of the scientified print ciples is not at all complex, but is. t merely good business for him. He was one of several hundred such co- , operators over the state who, with . their neighbors, are reaping the bene- , fit of the help from the extension . workers.. o s—s—s—WANT ADS EARN—s—s—s

Instant I Quaker Oats Cooks to perfection in 3 to 5 minutes XT , N;- '4l ’’ MM B Two Styles Now One is almost ready to serve Quaker Oats comes in two styles now. And both stylts excel any other oats you know. Instant Quaker has been perfected by our experts. It cooks in from 3 to 5 minutes—the quickest-cooking oats in the world. And it cooks to perfection. Both have that super-flavor The world-wide fame of Quaker Oats is due to a super-flavor. It is flaked from queen grains only—just the rich, plump, flavor? oats. We get but ten pounds of these delicious flakes from a ■, bushel • £ Oat lovers everywhere send here for that flavor. Instant Quaker has that same flavor. It is flaked from the same Lj queen grains. But the oats are cut before flaking. They are rolled ‘f l very thin and are partly cooked. So the flakes are smaller and thinner—that is all. And those small, thin flakes cook quickly. J So Quaker Oats now offer two great advantages. They offer a flavor which no other oats can match. And now in addition, if you wish, oats that cook in five minutes or less. Get either kind you want. But don't, if you love oats, get less flavory oats than Quaker. Regular Quaker Oats Come in package at left — the style you have always known.
