We .would bet a lead nickel or two that those fellows in the Question Mark couldn't keep her going in northern Indiana this week, without getting cold fingers and toes. Just about- the time we are getting some where with the Cbristmab bills, we are reminded that its again time to work but that annual cross-word puzzle, the income tax report. Back of the suicide of Fred Breer and the death of his three little children from the same gas jet which ended th* life of the daddy is perhaps a heart rending story tliat wili never be truthfully and completely told. The, Angola mystery deepens and there are indications that a few of tile men from Scotland Yards or one of Nick Carter's men is needed to unravel-it. In the meantime a couple of young ladies who are supposed to know some real inside dope, come up missing. It is some relief not to have read a lot of silly editorials about the iniquities of the solid south. Since the recent election a good many republican editors seem to have discovered that tiiere are some white folks living south of tile Mason and Dixon line. The cold wave came alright and was severe enough to meet every demand. So far as most of us are concerned the weather man can turn on the heat a little any time he likes. Winter weather at this season is expected and by many desired but there can be too nyich of even a good thing. George B. Lockwood. Indiana newspaper matt, declares he can't lie bothered with any little job like a cabinet portfolio, Hp has notified Mr. Hoover not to coax him for he just can't accept. Sounds a little unusual but of course coming from a newspaper man. v,e ate forced to accept the statements, as are. President Coolidge and Presidentelect Hoover held a conference yesterday but the news they gave out would not furnish startling headlines for the hungry press. Mr. Hoover said, "see tin- president'' and the president said,"we talked about South America.". It's lough picking for the journalist's.

Fedetal men conducted a raid on residences in Chicago Heights, arrested twenty-five and secured evidence which will probab y firing arrests of tunny more, including police officers. Most folks have thought for a long time that a company or two or Marines with full authority could clean up the niatia and all the rest of the gangs which have been in evident contro. ot affairs in that section. Daily Democrat readers are responding to our requests for renewals In a most satisfactory manner and we hope to have this animal job, always a pleasant one. completed within the next few weeks. We will do our level best to give you a ppper of interest the next year. If you get the paper by mail and your subscription Is due, please lie prompt In renewing. It will help us in several ways.

TODAY’S CHUCKLE Belfast? Ireland — (UP)—At the age of 90. Mrs. J. McCullough, of Brnslee, Dillyclnre, lias grown a new set of teeth. A Washington man got all liquored up the other ulght in the supposedly dry eapitol, stole Congressman David Hogg'S automobile and was having a good time when the cops got him. He swore be was the twelfth district representative himself but wpund up in an observation hospital where he will probably be listened to more attentively than he would if he were a regular member. The state eapitol is filled With republican politicians, In preparation for the opening of the legislative sess-

ion on Thursday of this week and the inauguration of Governor Leslie next week. Just what the result is to be we do not care to guess but there is evidence that plenty will be doing. It is likely to be the most expensive session on record in Indiana but why complain, that seems to have been understood prior to November 6th when we all had the opportunity to vote our preferences. From the office of the state fire marshal comes the timely warning that at this season every care to prevent fire should be exercised. During the past few days a number'of disastrous fires have occurred, causing great -losses of property and in few instances loss of lives. At Lima, Ohio, yesterday the court house was damaged by a serious Naze and when the roof fell in, two firemen their lives. Every care should be taken to avoid conflagration at this season of the year. Adams county should not quit trying to secure state roads. The state commission wishes to provide them and since we must continue to pay taxes in the form of license fees and gasoline charges, we should have our share of good roads. During the next decade those counties which have them will increase in value in every way and will grow and prosper. Getting thp proposed roads' through at this time is the biggest job we have. Every mile of state road-means the saving of thousands of dollars to the county, relieving the county of the maiutaineuce aud at th«- same time lessening the heavy traffic on the other highways. Buckle in and help get them while we can.

MR. KENNETH R. LOGERQUEST "To have health again after more than two years of constant suffering is indeed a blessiiig and I am glad to indorse this medicine, Konjola," said Mr. Kenneth R.

As long as I stood up, after meals, 1 was alright, hut the minute I sal down or went th bed, it felt as if the bottom would fall out of. my stomach. The muscles drew up into a hard knot and caused intense distress. I was losing .weight and strength daily. It was.a discouraging outlook und 1 did not know where to turn for relief. “Konjola Was recommended so highly that I did not hesitate a mipute to give it a trial. In the two and a half years of suffering I have neyer seen a medicine work such wonders aS Konjola It restored my appetite and regulated my stomach so that foods digest perfectly. That peculiar condition of my stomach does not come over me any more. I shall treasure my renewed health for al time ■and strongly advise all sufferers to give Konjola a' trial." .
