Bill Rogers says the unemployment situation doesn't look so bad from the cir. Well, Hill, doesn't need to think that becausi he does most of his traveling by plane that he knows it all. Most of us have been up in the air the past year. The delinquent tax list in Adams county this year is the largest in history, some indication of the strenous times of th ■ past year, but at that we venture the guess that the number advertised here will be less than in most any county of the middle wist. Representatives of the B rne furniture factories have returned from the shows with orders for a large numb r of sets of fine upholstered goods which is encouraging. We hope they get many more for that will indicate a general improvement in conditions and soon every mill will be op. rating full time. Betting on horse races as a means of raising nionej by the state taking a commission from

the bookies is proposed in a bill now in the legislature. There will b- much objection, but in Ohio, Kentucky, Maryland and other ' states this plan provides a large I sunt of -ash and thus relieves tax payers to warn ■ extent. In times J like these, most any thing appeals. Virgil Simmons, democratic candidate for the legislature was here i last evening and expressed his ap-, preciation for the unanimous vote 1 given him in the convention here) and gave tie' promise that when elected he would make a special effort to please the good people of Adams county, by serving them to the best best of his ability, in a fair and impartial manner. Wo don't care how tlry adjust the tax problem just so they do !' 1 in a fairway. The burd< n must , be lifted from real estate and of! Quick Relief for Coughing Spells Famous Prescription Stops Them Almost Instantly The amazing success of this prercription called Thoxine is due to its quick double action; it immediately soothes the irritation and goes direct to the internal cause not reached by ordinary medicines. The very first swallow usually stops oven the most obstinate cough. Thoxine is pleasant tasting and safe for the whole family. Your money will be refunded if it does not give better and quicker relief for coughs or sore throat than anything you have ever tried. Put up ready for use in lUjc, l'.(tc. and *I.OO bottles. Sold by Holthouse Drug Co. and all other good drug stores.

course the greatest care must be used so ns not to just switch the load from one man's back to anothers. Its a time when every one ought to be as fair and Just and unselfish us possible. That man Benham out in Belvidere, Illinois, who pays fifty per cent. Interest, says he does It by buying at low prices and selling at large profits. Now we don't understand it any more tlian before for that's what every one tries to Ido hut can't these days. Most of 'us can't even break evan. He ought to soon have the whole country sewed up. Although there are times when most of us feel that the old fashioned whipping post might just fit a particular criminal or law violator, few people really want that prehistoric method beck. However the usual bill for that was among the first offered in the Indiana lltgislator. The trouble with that 'law is that so many who ought to .be spanked would never get it ' while the poor unfortunate would. ” "— The first bill offered to re-district i the state congressionally would Icontinue Adams in the eighth district with Randolph, Jay, Wells, |Allen, Dekalb and Steub n. .They call this a democratic district but ( it would seem to be rather doubtful and depending largely on Al-

len. Randolph and Steuben are strongly republican, while Adams 1 and Wells are safely democratic. ‘ 1 Dekalb and Jay are close while- , , Allen has in recent years gone rc- | publican oftener than democratic.j ' I I But its too early to worry for there i will probably be many changes in I tlie bill and there is some doubt j that it will be possible to agree on jthe reapportionment If that happens tlie eongressm ti will all bfi elected at large. The attention of every earnest democrat is called to the fact that an important election will be held next Thursday in this and Wells county. The polls will be open in i each precinct from six A. M. to six P. M. and you will vote for a representative. The democratic candidate is Virgil M. Simmons, able and capable and well acquainted with the duties' upon which he 1 will enter if elected. The republl- ' can candidate is Dillon Myers, ■ president of the Chamber of Com- I merce at Bluffton. It is important at this time that a democrat be j elected to the house for that party ‘ having the majority will be th

i one which accomplishes things in this s'ssion. Don't take it for granted that Simmons will be elected. He will be if the vote is got- | ten out but if it isn't, no one can p II the outcome. Your services late more necessary in. an election of this kind than usual. —. 0 _ Modern Etiquette Il By | Ij ROBERTA LEE » ti f.PJ • j Q. What does air invitation to a [card party demand? A.
