MAY SERVE MEAL FROM TEA WAGON Ir — — fftzggHSW The tea wagon has long been considered almost a necessity as a laborsaver in serving, but with the new drop-leaf style it may be used to serve an entire meal. In a small apartment where the living room also does service as dining room, a roomy tea wagon, such as tiie one illustrated, would make a dining table almost unnecessary. How delightful to have one's breakfast by a sunny window and one’s dinner before a crackling wood fire' by Just wheeling the handy tea cart 1 to a different part of the room. • BREAKFAST NOOK FORMERLY PANTRY < r i f n ~ n —n —— ft\ I I I Mi OEHSf / — i --p* 1 This inviting breakfast nook was formerly the pantry. The plain table and benches are painted pale green. White voile curtains and a pot of Ivy make an attractive window. Checked gingham breakfast cloths are very appropriate for this tiny room.

Is Doubting Thomas No Longer “Ail medicines and doctors for stomach trouble proved worthless in my case. Everybody recommended something else and nothing helped, so I became a doubting Thomas as to any cure. While in St. Louis a party praised Mayr's Wonderful Remedy so highly that I bought a bottle and 1 am now a doubting Thomas no longer." It is a simple, harmless preparation that removes the catarrhal mucus from the intestinal tract and allays the inflammation which causes practical}' all stomach, liver and intestinal ailments. including appendicitis.

This money is in three separate funds known as the common school, $18,162.91; congressional. $6, 265.78, and permanent* endowment, $74,680.08. Tile money is loaned at six per cent and there are always applications ahead to borrow the funds as paid in. Just at present the auditor has but $1,500 on hands and this will b e loaned in a few days or as soon as the transcript and application can be approved. The original fund came from the sale of the lands comprising this county when it was turned over from the government many years ago. Hundreds of citizens have used money from the school fund in the years gone by and it is safe to predict that the custom will never be unpopular. Interest is payable once a year and payments o n the principal can be made only at interest paying time. ———- — _ retailers held meeting Dan Niblick Presided at Big Meeting Held in Fort Wayne A joint meeting of th 0 members of the Tri-State Merchants and group 2 of the Indiana Retail Merchants' was held yesterday at the Anthony hotel in Fort Wayne.
