It was about five above this morning. just a fine winter day and nothing to particularly complain about. What has become of the little girl who wore her mother’s dresses made over? Well, the month is nearly over. We presume you are all keeping your New Years resolutions. Stay away from Indianapolis, they have a bandit down there who holds you up and not satisfied with taking your watch and chain and valuables, , makes you strip completely, takiug your clothes. Now thas going just a , little too far for this time of year. ..... -.. I A woman in Shropshire, England, acquired tl?e habit of drinking vln- . cg.ir, dying recently from chronic in- j tex.ration. Physicians said she was ] "pi.klcd alive" by drinking large ( quantities for thirty years and at her ] doaili weighed but twenty-eight i pounds. t 1 Only four or five more days of the’’*. month and we are anxious to make < R a rial record breaker for renewal of' subscriptions. Have you| taken | cure of yours? Come in this week and secure one of the needle cases we are giving just as a good will offering to those who renew. That Lafayette couple who locked their baby in a sedan while they went to a movie deserved all they got—a lecture from the police captain—and more, they should have been placed under a guardianship until they lea. n how to give proper care to an infat t child. Mayor Thompson of Chicago, hud William McAndrew fired as superintendent of the city schools because ho didn't like his attitude on history. Now McAndrew has been retained by 1 the Century Company to edit thoir f histotics, really giving him much greater powers than ho had before. Thats the way it goes some times, u fellow meets himself coming back. | The Fort Wayne police seem to have come to life again and a rail on twenty-five or thirty boot legging joints with a couple of dozen arrests j is the result. Fines and suspended | sentences to jail follow in those cases . where tho defendants plead guilty i and soon every thing will be going as ! usual. _ I j Up to date it has. developed that cxsecrctary Fall, who has been term- , cd by the United States supreme • court as ' > fai'hlcsa public officer,” has received $30,000 from Doheny and $340,000 from Sinclair, besides many other fees he may have picked up in one year, which is going some any way you look at it. No wonder he broke under the strain. | Complete plans for the Old Home I Week program will bo announced before long. In the meantime about all you can do to help it along is to talk it and to plan when the time’ comet to aid in every way you can. Hundreds of people have already ex pressed themselves willing to do, this and we want every man, woman * and child in the community to eon- '

Thai will not get him any where. They , prefer a man who can get the dry I vote but will continue to wink at. the 1 Volsteadtrs. Its tho old game of playing it both ways from the middle. i The annual campaign for beet i acreage is on in this and surrounding counties and according to reports is one of the most successful ever held here. One Adaaui county man signed yesterday for fifty acres and a number of others for less amounts. There is no reason why every farmer who has the proper soil should not raise beets. With a market so near, wita a guarantee of price, with the finest cooperation from those with whom you deal, it: should be one lot the crops which you depend upon. Hickman's attorney, following an old and much used means of eecur-! ing u temporary delay, asked for a 1 c i.ingo of judge. It was granted and ■ J Ige J. J. Trabucca named.

Thats one of the causes foi the increase in crime it is generally believed. Boys, out for the joy of tho thing st, al 93 per cent of the motor cars np.te.l stolen, according to th. p-.csccutor at Kansas City. lu ar earlier day it probably would hav. been called fun, but now the head !

I — >• because of their age. Ho propose* a r minimum of five year* in the penlft tentiary, with few or no paroles, as 1. 1 one poiaible remedy. Ha believe* j, that thia plan would save hundred* a of boys from careers in crime. The K fivu-year term might save hundreds of boys from careers In crime, but we doubt if it Is exactly the thing y needed. We think youth should be y taught a sense of fair play, and that 9 if he acquires that, he will be no { thief. Boys used to have very nice scruples about where fun ended and | crime began, and we think It was the t old-fashioned parents who ought io : get the credit for this. Our recom- * mended place of application of the I sense of fair play is the old woodI ;hed. We think a tew more trips co ■ that sanctum would save a great deal i of time in the penitentiary. The > woodshed is a wonderful laboratory ‘n which to teach fair play.—Frank’ort Times. : —

S.S.S. and Rheumatism I simply don’t get along together I

You know it cannot be rubbed away ARE you one of those unfortunates who suffer with paint tn your muscles and joints, commonly called rheumatism, making you miserable, less efficient, interfering with your working hours, ruining your sleep? You may have tried many things without relief. Why not try S.S.S.? For more than 100 years S.S.S. has been giving relief in thousands of cases, as testified to in unsolicited letters of gratitude. ‘‘After suffering several years, * six bottles of S.S.S. completely relieved me of rheumatism. It also cleared up a skin eruption and gave me a good appetite. I think S.S.S. is a wonderful medicine.”—R. L. Bus:c, Southern Railway, Knoxville, Tenn. “I was very nervous, had hardiy : any appetite, and suffered with
