Test This Out For Yourself— MANY people who drink coffee regularly arc troubled with insomnia; or they feel nervous, “headachy," or suffer from indigestion. It may be hard for such men and women to believe that coffee is responsible for the way they feel. Because they have always drunk coffee, it hardly seems possible that this old habit could cause trouble. But there is one sure way to find out whether coffee is harming you. Just stop its use for a week or so, and drink Pcstum. Postum is a pure cereal beverage—absolutely free from caffeine, the drug in coffee, which disturbs the health and comfort of many. 9 After a week or two on Postum, you will sleep better and feel better; then your own good judgment should decide whether you go back to coffee or continue on the Road to Wellville with Postum. I Sold by grocers everywhere! Postum for Health “There’s a Reason” >£• J! Your grocer sells Pos»um in two forms: Instant Postum [in tins] prepared instantly in the cup by the addition of ’V&Sr boiling water.

licans to nominate him on a Shank platform which is headed by a proposition to electrically light every main highway in the state. It would cost millions of dollars and the state now ■ heavily in debt could ill afford the expenditure, but Lew is vote hunting and the cost is not to he considered. He . will find the people of Indiana are more interested in how costs and taxes can be reduced rather than increased. I The country club article by "Bob White’’ in Saturday’s paper was a well written article on a subject of much interest. Perhaps it may interest you to know that it was written by one of the older men of this comtaunity. by a man who docs not hope tp derive much if any personal, pleasure from the club but by one who has always had the best interests of the county and city at heart. We hope if you haven't read it yon will do so and we would be glad to have your opinion on these subjects. We hope a large number of school boys and girls will submit stories or essays on the Indian romance, told of in Saturday’s edition of this paper and for which three cash prizes are offered. Surely your imagination will make you see romance of Cho-a-pin-a-mois and his fair young bride, perhaps a princess. Maybe you can find the 1 two unmarked graves and as a result these could be marked as a spot of ; interest iu the years to come. Ge< , kour pencils out and get your imagination to working and write us a 350word story founded on the facts as stated. i i

Ert Slack says he doesn’t care to |. be a candidate for governor but wants i it understood that he does want to t be a candidate for United States senat tor in 1928. That's declaring some • distance ahead and if it works, look 1 out tor a lot of futures in the politij cal race. It is rumored that Mr. j Adair, Dan Sims and one or two others s also have an oye on the place now held . by Mr. Watson and then there may be a republican or two to contest for the place. I ■ !>■_.. "'■■■» 1 'We admit that when there is talk of main highways going on we become excited for we believe we see a wonderful future for those cities and counties which are fortunate enough to land them. It is estimated by government expert sthat by 1925 the. investment in paved highways in this country will equal the entire valuation of all the railroads of the United States. We should certainly co-op-erate with those at the head of the Harding Highway. Roll up your sleeves, boys and let’s take no chances. It is more important that we have a place on leading trans-continent highways now than it was to get on a trunk railway line fifty years ago. The average of cars with foreign license plates over the Old National road the past six months was nearly five thousand cars a week and on many of the main roads the weekly average wus Yrom ten to fifteen thousand cars a week the first year and will increase. Os course we want on the highway and we should enter with the spirit that will secure for this county and city all the publicity possible. It is expected this highwaywill be made a national military road and will receive special attention from the government. We can't afford not to do it and we can afford to do it in a snappy manner.

Conquering] Time The worth of anan is measured by I ! his usefulness. When many men are grouped to perform a common task for the common good they become an institution. The same measuring rod applies to the institution as to the individual. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is an institution—a big institution. It is big in size because it renders a big service. Perhaps there is no phase of Standard Oil Company (Indiana) service which is more significant or more far-reaching in its benefits to man than the means it furnishes for the conservation of time. It enables men to do the work of the world easier and. in fewer hours. It speeds up every phase of industry. The manufacturer can produce more merchandise because Standard Oil products enable him to run his machinery at higher speed. The farmer can cultivate more land and raise greatercrops because Standard Oil productsenable him to use power-driven farm machinery. The doctor can see more patients because Standard Oil products have enabled him to substitute the automobile for the horse. The salesman can display his wares to twice as many buyers by utilizing Standard Oil product# and the automobile. Standard Oil Company (Indiana) service lengthens man’s three score and ten by increasing his capacity for accomplishment. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is proud of the part it has taken in furnishing the means for men to annihilate time and distance through controlled and directed effort. It is proud of the fact that it has been able to benefit so many industries by taking so many products, varied and useful, from the single base —crude petroleum. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is proud of the leadership it has earned in the petroleum industry. It is proud of its organization of 27,000 men and women through whose loyal, earnest efforts it is able to render such a superior service as to have earned the respect and confidence of the thirty million people of the Middle West.
