' Brew This Tea For Billiousness | Costs next to nothing yet keeps bowels in fine order and ends constipation The head of every family that values Its health should always have in the house a 3o cent package of Dr. | Carter's K. and B. Tea. Then when any member of the fam-' llv needs someth',ng for a sluggish liver, sick headache, or to promptly regulate the bowels, simply brew a 1 cup and (Dink it Just before bedtime. It's an old remedy, is Dr. Carter's K. and B. Tea, and has been used for years by thousands of families, who : , get such good results from its use ' thut th. y have no desire to take any I thing, else, I G’.ve it to the children freely—they I like it and it will do them good. j ■ • The Fourth Down ' By Will e Pant Tho sudden drop in the temperature makes it look like there would | be real football weather tomorrow, even if the gridirons are a little soft. Coach France Center's fighting Catholic high boys scored a victory over the Yellow Jackets in a practice scrimmage on Ahr's Field Wednesday evening. They pushed over one touchdown during the more than an I I hour cf play while the Yellow Jackets were held scoreless. Too bad. the' D. C. H. S.team couldn’t arrange a schedule this season. They are developing rapidly. The rule which would prohibit members of the state high school association from playing non-inembers' was not passed by the association yes-1 terday. The proposal was amended ( several times and then tabled until I next year. The rule was fought by schools along the state lines as it would interfere greatly with their' athletic finances. State line schools, . such as Decatur, can arrange a few ' I games with out-of state schools and ; ■ make money to meet the year's ex-! I penses as the expenses of games with ! those teams are small. Now the football referees in St. ' Louis are on a strike. What next? The I. H. S. A. A. yesterday voted to drop Paragraph 2, of Rule 8, Sec-I tion 1, of the 1923 basketball rules, i which provides that boys in academic | 1 schools i lay basketball games in four : eight-minute periods, instead of in two twenty-minute halves. That 1 meets our approval. With the power to take time out when a team is exhausted. we don't see the need of I breaking up the game into four i periods. | On to LOGANSPORT. I Coach Buck Howard will go to I Hicksville Saturday to witness the I Hicksville-Van Wert game. The YelI low Jackets play Hicksville here on I Nov. 10 and Van Wert at Van Wert on Nov. 21. Just for fun: Indiana to beat Wisconsin; Purclue to beat Wabash; Notre Dame to beat Princeton; Michigan to beat Ohio; Chicago to beat North-J western; Illinois to beat Iowa; Portland to heat Hartford City; Gary to beat Wabash; South Side to beat Huntington: Central to beat Garrett. o WANT ADS EARN—s—s—s Geneva May Buy a New Fire Truck Soon Geneva, Oct. 19.—The town council is considering the buying of additional fire fighting apparatus. A representative of the company which sold the present equipment was in town Tuesday evening and had several offers to make to the board. The meeting was held ove r while the board consulted attorneys concerning the proper method to take in such mat-j I ters. A combination chemical wagon II and water pump seemed to win favor | i with the members and most of the citizens present. The outfit under con- ' sideration would cost $3,390. The new fire wagon, if the deal goes through, will be a Ford truck equipped with two 45-gallon chemical tanks, 2 hand extinguishers, ladders, etc., and a power pump which would be run by the truck engine and pump 225 gallons of water per minute on a straight life of 25 feet. The old chemical truck has been overhauled and is in fair shape now, but the addiiton of the'new apparatus would more than double our protec- L tion even though no cistern were I available, and in case a cistern were within 500 feet of the fire, it would I immeasurably increase the fire fighting facilities.

LADIES! DARKEN YOUR GRAY HAIR Use Grandma’s Sage Tea and Sulphur Recipe and Nobody Will Know. The use of Sage and Sulphur for restoring faded, gray hair to its natural color dates back to grandmother's time. She used It to keep her hair beautifully dark, glossy and attractive. Whenever her hair took on that dull, faded or streaked appearance, .this simple mixture was applied with I wonderful effect. Hut brewing at home is mussy and iout-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at any drug store for a bottle of I “Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound," you will get this famous old preparation, Improved by the addition of other Ingredients, which can be depended upon to restore natural color and beauty to the hair. A well-known downtown druggist says it darkens the hair no naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied. You simply dampen a st onge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one | s'rand at a time. By morning the g’-ay hair disappears, and after anol her application or two, it becomes beautifully dark and glossy.

With prolific sows producing pigs responsive to feed a profit can be made ; in these times of relatively low pric- ' ed pork and high priced corn.
