The man himself will he master of the air. Tie will rely only on the machine ami his own power as he likes according to his desire or to his physical faculties.” Keeps Secret Captain Dibovsky has chosen to keep secret many of the details of his purported invention but it his claims are true, he will have accomplished something which inventors from the time of Daedalus and Icarus have been trying unsuccesfully to do. The inventor explains that in the construction of his machine he has followed closely all the elements of the simple and wonderful principles of fly ing discosed by nature in the Albatross. The position of a man on h'.s machine is horizontal, and most suitable position for an economical use of his powers. The organs of steering are concentrated in his hands, and the organs of flapping in his legs. The body of the machine will have a special form with a minimum of resistance to the air, and will have on its surface a certain area of depression which will give automatic propulsion power. Such an area or depression in the body of the Albatross makes it able to move forward against strong currents of air. The only other detail of his machine which Captain Dibovsky will disclose at this stage is that the plane will be flexible in all directions and horizontally moving peduls will be connected with flexible wings. He declares that by pushing the machine forward on an incline smooth surface for 100 yards in calm weather it rise from the ground and fly without difficulty, attaining an altitude of 3,00 feet. 15 to 25 Miles "In calm weather" Captain Dibovsky Mid, "my machine could reach a speed of between 15 and 25 miles an hour.” Were this picture of men of the future flapping their way through space by movements not dissimilar to ■'dimming the dream of a mere visionary, it might be dismissed without consideration, But Captain Dibovsky has shown his worth as a practical aviator. as well as an inventor, and his new claims have created a veritable sensation. His achievements include the invention of a synchronizing gear w firing through the propeller of an arplane, for which he was awarded J..i,000 by the Royal Commission of Awards to Inventors. He has been concerned with flying since 1908 and received a gold medal from the All-Rus-sian Aeronautical Society for his flight from Sebastopol to St. Petersburg, a ' s ance of 1,600.

Discouraged sufferers will find a message of good cheer in a letter written by Mr. J. A. Freed, 2938 So. Main St., Elkhart, Ind. He says: “For 15 years I have dreaded the suffering that followed every meal. My stomach felt like a rock was in it, and the gas and bilious attacks made life miserable. I was constipated, sleepless, and tired out all the time. Three years ago my kidneys began bothering me. I am a plasterer by trade, and anyone can imagine how hard it was to work with a back that ached always, and often I was so weak and dizzy I could hardly keep up. I had headaches, heart palpitation, and nobocjy who hasn’t had severe stomach trouble can imagine all the suffering it can cause. When I started taking Vipna, 1 was about as hopeless as anyone could be. After the first few doses, I found my back had stopped aching. Soon my kidneys were working fine, and stopped bothering me at night. The first thing I knew, I was hungry and able to eat, w'ith very little discomfort. Now I can eat big meals without a sign of gas or indigestion. My constipation is entirely relieved, and 1 am sleeping soundly and get up every morning feeling just grand. I can’t praise Viuna enough, but think the facts should speak for themselves.” Viuna acts promptly on sluggish bowels, lazy liver and weak kidneys. It parities the blood, clears the skin, restores appetite and digestion,and brings new strength and energy to the whole body. Take a bottle on trial.

AMERICA'S LAWS ARE ANTIQUATED Gary. Ind., Feb, 13 (HP)—America's ancient methods of admlnfHterlng Juki ice to criminals is one of the outstanding reasons why this country has ho many miscreants, Is the opinion of Prosecuting Attorney Oliver Starr of Gary. Starr declared that America's methods of administering justice tire 15(1 years behind time. He added that such antiquated court proceedings could not be found any other place in the world. "The appeal system." Starr said, “is one of the biggest flaws In the American Government, Any person, no matter what ci line ho or she may have committed, may appeal to a “higher court, and thereby obtain additional liberty to which they are not entitled, while their case is pending. "Many persons are walking along the streets today who were convicted as much as four and five years ago. but pre at liberty because they appealed their cases to higher courts, which have not yet found time to act on t hem”. Starr explained that ns result of the appeal system, it is almost an impossibility to send a person with money and influence to the penitentiary, regardless cf.what the’offWuse might be. "If the people desire to relieve this condition, they should see to it that other methods of handling appealed cases are provided," Starr continued. The Prosecuting Attorney said that another exerted phase of our system of

Unseen Currents Wherever a motorist travels in the Middle West, the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is always at hand, ready with its service and its products to supply his needs. This fact is taken for granted. Little is known of the complicated machinery that makes it possible. To the average person it all seems very simple. Gasoline is made from crude oil that is taken out of the earth, refined and distributed by organizations like the Standard Oil Company (Indiana). Most people have no knowledge of the elaborate mechanism required in that production and distribution. For example, the transportation system of the petroleum industry is practically unknown. About 18 inches under the ground it runs—unseen—unheard. The system consists of a network of pipe lines — 90,000 miles in all—carrying streams of oil from one part of the continent to another. The oil is moved ty means of pumping stations about 40 miles apart. Pipes are from 4 to 12 inches in diameter—sometimes larger. The pipe-line system, like a railroad system, includes trunk lines, feeder lines, terminals, storage yards, switching systems, dispatchers, telegraphs and telephones. For every three miles of railroad in the country there is approximately one mile of pipe-line. A train of tank cars 40,000 miles long would be required to handle the petroleum that is carried annually by the pipe-lines. It is the most economical land transportation system yet devised! Men travel through the country unconscious of this unseen current of petroleum pumped along under the surface of the ground that they may have fuel and oil for their cars. Motorists are for the most part unaware of the mechanical means by which the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) serves them. But the greatest unseen forces at work in this Company are recognized and understood by motorists everywhere. Loyalty and enthusiasm and a sincere desire to serve run like an electric current through the entire organization of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana). This unseen current is felt at every point of contact. Because of it men are willing to go out of their way to find a Standard Oil Service Station. They khow they can depend upon the products they buy there. They know they will be served by • a man who likes his job, his Company and his customers. However little they may know of the intricate mechanism behind Standard Oil Company (Indiana) symbols of service, the people of the Middle West appreciate their meaning!

The Prosecuting Attorney aid the aged method of selecting a jury Is another hindrance to speedy administration of just Ice. "Usually, the first 12 or 15 men would do just as well in a Jury box as if they had been chosen from several hundred. — o —-——- — Two Guards At Asylum Are Beaten To Death Bridgewater, Mass., Feb. 13 - (I.X'St —Two guards at the state iiospital for the criminal insane were beaten to death early today by one of live Insane patients, who had escaped from their rooms.
