Crown E Quality Shouts Aloud I Red Crown, the High Grade gasoline, is one of the major products made, sold and guaranteed by the Standard Oil Company (Indiana). When it is pun:ped into your tank, it delivers a service which in every 1 way measures up to the ideals established by the Board of Directors for the Company as a whole. The evidence in favor of Red Crown as a quality product, is overwhelming. The constant patronage and good will of more than two million motorists, attest the merit of , Bed Crown for Service Red Crown produces instant starting Winter or Summer—a quick snappy get-a-v. ay, smooth steam-engine-like acceleration and all the power and speed your engine is capable of deve loping. To use Red Crown is to get that maximum service your car was designed to render. There is no waste to Red Crown—it vaporizes to the last drop to make power and give maximum mileage. Red Crown is the best, most economical gasoline you can buy. BUY RED CROWN At the following Standard Oil Service Station: Corner Metter and Wincheater Sts.

Boost along. It may nut seem like much to you to make a little improvement but if a thousand people do a little, the total is worth while and . the results always satisfactory. This • is going to be the bust town iu Indiana and you eau help make it that • sooner if you push a little. By ths way what became of the I fuel investigation committee which > held au ail winter session at Wash[i Ing ton and which was proclaimed • the medium which would forever eud I I excessive coal prices?

We will keep call • ing your attention to It until you i have made good on your signed promi ise and‘the committee which soliciti ed you wilt, be around In a few days • to find out why you haven't made I good. Belter do it at once or think up a good excuse. It’s the best campaign of its kind ever put on hero and a progressive step that means 1 something for all of us. it's not very expensive and adds a hundred 1 percent to appearances. •BW-!"""!""* Senator Hiram Johnson is on his ' way home from Europe with the slogan "Leave Europe alone.” That's not new for Hi. He lias been yelling that for several years and now after six weeks iu the finest hotels of the most attractive places iu the old country, enjoying the finest brands of everything, he comes back with the old stuff rehashed and emphasized. Well If he can figure some other plan which will produce a market and healthy prosperity, some way in which we can take care of the over production at present he may get somewhere in his race for president. Otherwise he will not scratch the surface. Will Hays told the preachers as;ciubie<l at Indianapolis yesterday that they are receiving only a "hand to mouth" living and deserve more, praised them for their work and advocated a fifteen million dollar fund to sustain them. Os course his remarks found receptive ears but the trouble is that he made his speech iu the wrong place. The ministers can ■uot go out and raise the money for themselves. It is often embarrasing for them to get the small stipend paid now. If such a campaign is to be made it should be done outside the ministerial meetings and because the people who believe in churches really wish to do it and feel what , I lavs said. William Jepniugs Bryan was de- 1 fcated for moderator of the Presbyterian church on the third ballot at the Indianapolis convention yesterday, when Dr. Charles Wishart of Wooster, Ohio, was givoa the honor. W. J. tore his usual smile of defeat and will keep right on working for the cause he believes in. it seems a little strange that one of the argu , ments used against him was his firm stand in discussing evolution and the fear that because yf his position on that question be could uot have unity of all the ministers. *ut if it hadn't been that cause for his Meat it J would probably have been another. Bryan is a great man until lie ask for office and then the Voters decide ( he won't do. Governor McCray went to Muncie the other day to explain to the G. A. It. in state convention there, why he' had vetoed the soldier bill passed by the recent legislature. As he enter-* cd they cheered because he is our' governor. After his carefully prepared explanation had been given, they promptly adopted a resolution declaring ids explanation unsatisfactory .and then they gave some real cheers. Seems like we urnid to sing "There' arc things which cannot be explain-1 ed," and this with several other acts of the governor, including his vetoe <of "farmers bill,” his forcing through of the I’cndletpn millions, iu numerous appropriations and his play of politics will require more than a soft voiced speech or two. , :— MANY ACRES OF ONIONS Milford.

-- . o * Good Draft Horses Are Growing Scarce In America According To Big Dealers ■■■■■ p zUf t z. tw k" 3£« j BUB/ UL-i

The photograph shows three valuable horses recently purchased by El. .!. Ahr. well known horse buyer of this city. The photograph was taken at Mr. Ahr's heme just east of the Monroe street river bridge. The three horses were valued at Stmtl. The horse at the left, weighed 2,02<> pounds and was purchased from a Mr. Cretzinger at Marion, Indiana. The horse in the center, weighed 2,170 pounds and was purchased from Mike Meyer at Elwood, Indiana. The roan horse at the right in the picture' weighed an ton and was purchased from Fred Okberger, at Bern'!.' Mr. Ahr buVs horses for Dave Cum mins & Co., a larA> horse buying concern in Uniontown, Pennsylvania. The three horses shown in the .picture have been shipped to Unontown, together with several other carloads recently. An idea as to the growing scarcity of heavy horses may be found in the following extract from a letter written to Mr. Ahr by Mr. Cummins: “It was just a year ago the 30th of April that we undertook the roan horse job—to get twelve roan horses for these people, and it was rather a funny coincidence that it took just one year to the day to get it done and done right, and I have a pretty large acquaintance in the horse world find as you know have had every gawd judge I knew of on the lookout and ; helping us to get it done, and then ( they had to come out of Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, three out of Illinois, six out of Ohio and three out of Indiana.

• And as you well know the price was not the consideration, it was to get : the twelve good horses that would . weigh from 1,800 to 2,000, broke and sound. They cost the I. N. Hagan Ice ' Cream company as near as 1 can tell. $4.C«i delivered, and, Ed, I would not 1 undertake to duplicate them for less than a good deal more, not less than Jttiam) if i had to just lo<A for them ' aone. As scarce as good big horses arc, ft would eat it all up in expenses. "1 can have'an order for eight more ' good horses that weigh from 1800 to 2000, of any color but black, but don’t ' know of the scarcity of good big horses. I have another old friend and customer who- would like 3 pairs of horses like 1 have been discribing, any good color or black, so you sec there is still plenty of demand for real draft horses if they would only raise and care for them. This demand that I am talking of is but a drop in the bucket," just a ittle local trade that comes to me unsolicited, but a lot of my horse dealer friends tell me-they are in the same boat. This is just a little ilhistraton to show how hard real draft horses are to find. Henry Pleso, of Chicago, told me he had been on the hunt of fi big horses for over four months, for a Philadelphia customer. I could go on and mention lots of other dealers I know I well, in the market for the good kind, jit is a wonder people don’t wake up jand breed tlwir good marcs instead of being like they have been with the i sheep business, wait until there are none at all.” -

Rheuiuatisiu, knifelike pains in my back, headaches, dizzy spells and frayed nerves also added to my misery. I was losing weight, and had to strata every nerve and muscle to keep going. "Well, Tanlae did away with all my troubles, added fifteen pounds to my weigh,, and put me in the pink of condition. I can't say enough for Tanlae.” Tanlae is for sale bv all good drug gists.
