It wasn't a prize light, but a money making scheme for the promoters, ending in the third round when Lou Magnolia declared Scott knocked out. Then on top of it, Scott claims a foul. We're disgusted. Little hope is extended for tlie recovery of William Howard Taft, ex President and former Chief Justice of tlie United States. The news brings sorrow to the nation. Taft, a noble and great man probably holds the esteem of more people than any man in public life today. It's a pity that his health does not permit his living for years, for his presence, fine citizenship and intellect will be greatly missed. —UW—UW- . ■ - - - — „ || |- “Ail I Tried Failed; Then Konjola Won” Former Sufferer Now Enjoying Health. Pays Tribute To Master Medicine I / MR. O. L. PICKERING • “For eight years I suffered from ■* stomach trouble; Indigestion pains .. followed every meal,” said Mr. O. L. Pickering, 1101 West Monroe . street, Kokomo. "My liver was in a pluggish (condition, and dizzy _ spells and pains across the small of my back were frequent. These ailments combined to make me very nervous, and 1 did not sleep well at night. „ ‘ Konjola. was recommended to me and I decided to try it. It cleansed and stimulated my system. , - eliminated constipation and re- - stored digestion. My liver was regulated, and for the first time in eight years, I am free of those ail- • meats. I can never express my gratitude for what Konjola has done for me. It surely proved itse’f the master medicine." Konjola is sold in Decatur at IS. J. Smith drug store, and by all the best druggists in all towns throughout this entire section. Colds are serious. Even mild ” cases are dangerous. Remember KONJOLA COLD COMPOUND (Üblets) is giving amaxing re lief to thousands of cold suffer ere every year. These table arc of the same high quality a Konjola.

|f . TODAY’S CHUCKLE 0 (U.R) « LoLndon. Tommy Atkins | may b*. caught chewing gum on partuic. for the latest report I on the health of the British army states that "chewing i sweets" will be included in the ■ soldiers’ iron rations. It's a good suggestion on the part of tlie directors of the Chamber of Commerce to limit membership on the board to one term of three years. We haven’t any criticism to make of past records, but know from experience that it’s human for man to tire of committee detail and civic duties and shirk i esponsjbllitj I’tsi It around every year, get new blood and enthusiasm and you'll do things. Like any business, you must keep tilings young, active and the more new thought you bring into an organization, tlie better should be its endeavor to carry on. If you don't listen to tlie basketball games over the radio and want tlie results call tlie Daily Democrat, Phone 1000, for the scores. Station WGL will broadcast tonight's games and station WOWO . will broadcast this afternoon's and I Saturday's games. The score of the Commodore-St. John’s game, to be played at the Catholic high school gym in this city will also be announced from this office, together with the results from the Bluffton tourney. Basketball fans are invited to call their newspaper for scores. Basketball is a great tonic and community reviver. Over at Bluffton. where they have one of the sectional tourneys this week, a • ixteen page green sheet, sport edition was published by the NewsBanner. The edition, well edited, contained pictures and write-ups of the teams who participate in the sectional and the, paper was a line example of journalism. From all indications everyone likes to talk basketball and it's not a bad thing to forget business troubles and ordinary worries for a few days and enjoy the enthusiasm and energy which the players and fans put in the hard fought contests. Dr. James Howard Snook will probably have to pay with his life for the death of his college sweetheart. Theora Hix, whom he murdered last summer. All efforts to save Snook from the electric chair have been futile so far, the last recourse being an elevent 11 hour stay through executive clemency. Tlie case was one of the sensational sexy types, attracted a lot of attention and Snook made a sorbid confession that he killed the girl. It's a case of folly first and repenting afterwards and tlie former professor at Ohio State university probably wishes he had his life to live over. Old King Ben of the House of. David, has been declared dead by his successors, they waiting three years to see if he would come back to ole. King Ben had always taught his adherents the immortality theory and that he and his followers would have everylasting life. His resurrection did not take place, so the members of his cult became dissatisfied and decided to divide the sooils. “Queen Mary”, Irs wife and Dewhirst, his successor. each made a‘fifty-fifty split of the holdings of the colony in and around Benton Harbor, Michigan, •the latter maintaining management of the Israelites and King Ben's wife going her way, probably to start another colony. Not due t < anyone's fault, but ifresult of the wet weather and extreme thaws, roads throughout the state are in bad shape. In this county every effort is being made to put them in repair and it's some job when you consider that there are more than 725 miles of gravel roads in the county. In places where they have broken through, it looks like an earthquake had rocked tiic road bed
