The program for the Decatur Chautauqua next week is one that will Interest you. Good speakers, fine musical programs, a great band, a ( mixture of entertainments that will suit everyone. ] What do you think of the free 1 Chautauqua? This community can present to the people of this section a program unexcelled and invite everybody to come, making It a great week and without greater cost than, the ordinary Chautauqua, its a fine , plan and if our people take the interest they should we can make it worth while. f Johnson was elected senator from Minnesota by a majority of 94,846 1 over Preuss, the republican candi- ' date. And that in a state which roll- ■ ed up two or three times that majority for Mr. Harding in 1920. No ! wonder they are holding conferences > 1 each day and trying to figure. out|’ something to do. They wont get far with any remedy until they arrange to give the farmer a price for his ' product which will show a net profit for his year's work. Any other kind 1 of prosperity Is temporary and unsafe. A well known citizen told us this morning that he had just returned from a visfit to Goshen. Indiana and | the thing which particularly attract ; ed him was the splendid manner in I which all the yards are kept. “I ’ don't believe there is a weed in , Goshen," he said, and that's justl about true. For years Goshen has hammered at this and as a result the little city has the reputation of having more attractive yards than any place in the state. That’s something t to he proud of. Decatur can have it i too with a little more effort. p Cut your weeds. They are going to 1 'ft '' 1 HQ i I;

More J than that you are scattering seeds to J your neighbors yard and perhaps he I Is trying hard to make his yard * beautiful. There is au ordinance covering this and we believe it should be enforced. A few official notices will cause many to realize t that we nienn to make this the most attractive city in Indiana. Cut your weeds ami keep them cut. It doesn't take much work if you do a little occasionally and it means a lot to any city to have attractive lawns and yards. The gift of the furnishings for another room at the hospital, made by Mr. and Mrs. C. E. Bell, leaves but two of the thirty-six rooms to be furnished. The response to the call ( from the board for this purpose has been responded to in a very splendid manner and those who have thus answered the worthy request de- c serve credit. The hospital is one of the most complete in all the country and each day many visitors come to { inspect it and all are loud in their | praises. The dedication Sunday will r be a notable event in the history of y this community. The hospital be- 1 longs to the county and you will all r be proud of it in the years to come. - - - - -1 John Isenliarger and Fred Reppert 2 have made good. It’s a big fair—one of if not the greatest ever given here.

If you miss the fair i you overlook the greatest attraction in the county this year and the biggest buy for your money you will get in the middle west. Every man. woman and child in the county should - support the fair with all their energy. f £ ability and enthusiasm.

July 25—(Special to Daily Democrat) —Amid a thickening haze of mystery which shields the names of wives high in the social and artistic worlds of New York, Assistant District Attorney Maloney filed a new brief in general sessions court in an effort to back up the indictment against George Maxwell, musical executive. Maloney charged in his brief on the poison pen case which has the mystery ci’ an Edgar Allen Poe story, that: 1 — Maxwell wrote 135 known letters—and perhaps hundreds more that are not known —tq husbands of women he preyed upon. 2— For six years this had broken up prominent family homes and even led some of the victims to commit suicide. 3— Tlie motive was to rid himself of wives he tired of, so that he might continue unhampered to prey upon others. 4— No one else could have written the "poison pen" letters because Maxwell was the only one who could know the details of all the affairs. o — Assurance Doubly Sure. A wife need not be a good cook, according to the decision of a “learned" Detroit judge. Just the same we still maintain that It Is a handy accomplishment to have tucked In your apron pocket.

1 ■ ? : The Glory * of my hair—How I got it 1 By Edna

~ My youthful beguty t? the talk of ” tlxe country, because of >iny grand old 51 have been 82 years q stage star..-yet ’i ; look like 'a girl of T 9. v My hair is my greatest glory. It is thick, silky, lustrous, and it grows finer every year. Gray hair, falling hair and dandruff are troubles I nevit- er knew. Many years ago my mother took •ne to France to search for the greatest hair help known to science. We 1,1 found it and used it. Mother died at 57 with hair Kke mine today. And my hair is much more beautiful than 30 , n vears ago. 1 1 have supplied the same formula to many of my friends. They secured like results. Their hair, !d:o mine, Is tin 1 marvel of ail who see it. to So I believe that any person, in my way, can multiply the beauty of the hair, and keep it young and healthy. Now I am sharing with all who wish id it the matchless help I found. LIKE A GARDEN Those exports told me that the scalp is like a garden. An oil called Sebum H" hardens there and stifles the hair roots. Dandruff attacks the scalp. Then the choked hair roots deteriori ate or perish. r ’ The pigment which gives hair its color is stifled in like way. Then tile hair falls out. turns gray, and ceases ito grow and thrive. Just as flowers

This method does not muss the hhir. 1 apply it once a day, but experts say that those with dandruff should use it twice a day. In 20 years 1 have never missed an application, and 1 never shall. I believe that Hair Y'outli will do for millions what it did for me and mine. If so. it will be a blessing to all womankind.
