If you haven’t subscribed for stock in the Adams County Agriculture. ; Association do so now and help make this a one hundred per cent effort to , make this the best county in the best county in the middle west. Properly conducted this organization will , do just that. I ■ t Efforts to publish a city and county directory here will be made soon by a responsible company. This is important and necessary. If the com pany is given the necessary support a new edition will be published each two years, providing information of great value to the business men and to those who desire to know juat where every body lives. ~ i A western retail clothier association ( announces that those men who dress well must have- pajamas of pastel shades of bright designs, with a ( three-quarter length jacket and a long sash to be carefully and correctly tied in a bow. Now some enterprising merchant will have to announce the trade in allowance for the old night gown or the ordinary "pajamas. Some things actually look silly these days. Someone has gone to the trouble to take a census of the number of automobiles in the whole world, and he states the number to be 25,973,928. and of this total the United States ■has 19,999.136. Now will some one please figure out how far they would read! if placed end to end, or how many people will be killed jiy them during the current year? — Columbia City Post. Holding a few shares of stock in one of the bus lines that traverse this part of the state must be anything but a pleasant occupation. With the fine new thing of a few months ago showing the ravages of the road, and carrying from one to six passengers through a thriving country like ours does not look much like replacing the old car with a new one. With a private car lor each four of the state, what use do we have of so many different ways of travel, anyway.—Bluffton Banner. W,. know of. a number who are planning to build houses this year and that’s a sign of an era of good times for when building is going on your community is going forward. For couple of years past we have •been at the point where the town cannot grow because we cannot house the people. Thais an excellent conMitiou in away, but retards growth. ♦With the present facilities through the loan associations to borrow money, with a number of available lotc there is no reaucu why we shosld not have fitty to a hundred new * *

You never saw anybody with healthy, rich, red blood, get wearied by the activities of daily life. Did yon? No! Its weak blood—lack of healthy, rich, red blood. That’s the whole trouble with those whose nerves are overwrought. They lack the resisting powers— the stamina that healthy, red-blood-cells give that enabß us to stand up under the strain of daily lite. S. S. S. is the salvation of these unhappy people. It is just the thing needed to strengthen the neryes, restore mhscular power to the body, and increase tho endurance of weak, fall-, lug, run-down women and men. Don’t keep on going down simply because your blood is starving for want of healthy, red-blood-cells. You can get back your nerve power with S. S. You can do it just as surely as thousands have done e for the past century. \ S. S.
