S. S. Lexington, lost in a night flight from Norfolk to Annapolis several weeks ago, was found on the beach at Willoughby near Ocean View early today. Identification was made from his uni form over civilian clothing and from a message from Mrs. Ellyson notifying him of their daughter's illness.

ADMINISTRATION TICKET LOSES IN ILLINOIS ELECTION (CONTINUED FKOM PAGE ONE) Governor Frank O. Lowden, unopposed on the ballot, won an easy endorsement, and seemed assured of all but perhaps a dozen of the state’s 61 delegates to the national convention. Fragmentary returns indicated that Mayor Thompson's uninstructed candidates for delegates—entered iu the race as part of his "draft Coolidge" campaign—had won in only a few districts. z Governor Al Smith of New York seemed assured of the state’s Democratic delegates. No Democrat a were entered on the preferential ballot, but delegates pledged to smith generaly were succssful. Thus the vicious political campaign of bombs, bullets, intimidation and threats in Cook county, culminating in an election characterized by vioence and charges of ballot box irregularities, ended in what most observers considered a rebuke to both county and city administrations. Swanson, in a statement claiming victory early this morning, said he interpreted the vote as an indication of "a fixed determination on the part of the voters of Cook county to change the standards, policies and principles of the entice of state’s Attorney." J “A restoration to law and order will result from the primary,” said Senator Deneen, who canie here from Washington to direct personally his faction's campaign after his .and Swansons homes were damaged by bombs. Crowe and his supporters contend-

ODOR OF COOKING FOOD MADE HIM SICK AT STOMACH Lived On Graham Crackers and Milk Until He Got Konjola W I fil MR. JOHN FLEMING "Konjola relieved me of the worst case of stomach trouble anyone could have and still live,” said Mr. John Fleming, 2102 K. Cass St., Joliet, 111. "I suffered every kind of stomach misery for three years. Just a few bites of solid food canned a sour 1 , acid stomach that, would bloat me tip with gas and a hot, bitter liquid would rise in my throat. I lived on graham crackers and milk, for over a year. Even the odor of cooking food made me sick at the stomach.. I often suffered with severe headaches and dizzy spells. "A full treatment of Konjola cleansed my whole system and ended every ache and pain in my body. I never have tihe slightest trouble with my stomach any more and the sight of food makes ms hungry. 1 have a good appetite ami everything I eat agrees with me. No other medicine ever helped me like Konjola and I am glad to tell others about it.” Konjola Is sold in Decatur at Staith Yager & Falk drug store, and by all druggists throughout this section.

ed the bomba were tossed by Deneen supporters to create antl-adminltra tion prejudice, but Deneen backers blamed Crowe and Mayor Thompson Indirectly, asserting that/ organizations hoodlums and gangsters allowed to thrive during tho preaent administration were to blame for the bomhings and other violence. The Deneenltes also blamed politics for the assassination of “Diamond Joe” Esposito, powerful Deneen ward leader. 0 — Fight For Repeal Os Auto Tax Is Renewed Washington, April 11 —(U.K) Promise that automobile manufacturers would reduce the prices of automobiles three per cent if Congress repeals the 3 per cent federal auto tax was renewed before the State finance committee today by Roy D.

Indigestion Gone * Gaining Weight Suffered 25 Years. Now Eats Anything. Back-Ache Ended. f Readers who have almost despaired of ever being able to eat again without intense suffering, will be interested in the experience of Mrs. W. A. Guilford, 1306 So. Cedar St., Auburn, Ind. In telling how she ended this affliction, she says: “I suffered about everything a person can imagine from stomach trouble, for 25 years. Every time I tried t» eat, f was bloated with gas and the pains were very severe. My kidneys bothered me day and night, and my back ached almost all the time. I was constipated, dizzy, sleepless and often had sick headaches. During my last severe attack of indigestions F lost 23 pounds in weight. I couldn’t Itelieve there was any real relief for me, but finally tried Viuna because it was so strongly recommended. It took hold of me very promptly. I began to eat without gas or pain, and today my stomach is in wonderful shape. I need no laxatives any more, my headaches and back-ache have all disappeared, my kidneys are working fine, and I am gaining back my lost weight. It took me 25 years to find Viuna, but I hope my experience will save time and suffering lor other sick folks.” Viuna acts promptly on sluggish bowels, lazy liver ami weak kiilneys. It purities the blood, clears the skin, restores appetite and digestion.and brings new strength and energy to the whole body. Take a Hottie on trial.
