Those letters of Congressman Hogg may be afright after they have been explained but Dave is sure going to have to dig up a good a ibi to satisfy a lot of his constituents who are not bubbling over with enthusiasm any way. If congress really wants to save some money they can hold out those .speeches and reports they have been bothering us with the past several.years. And that totaled over the U. S. A. amounts to considerable, we feel sure. For a year John Slick of South Bend has fought a suit for divorce tt’ed by his wife, in which $500,000 alimony was demanded. Yesterday he suicided, leaving his entire estate to her. That’s one way to settle a case. Senator John Thomas of Idaho has been renominated by the Republicans. though the issue in the campaign was the fact that he had -a number of relatives on the payroll and that some of them had never even been east of the Mississippi. Thomas beat his opponent two to one, indicating that the citizens of the potato state don’t ■Bhject to a little taking of the ’soft’’ ■money. a The United States senators are Laving hard times these days. They have been ordered to be in their seats by ten A. M. and to stay there utitiT":3o P. M. Os course they can slip over to the restaurant and get a sandwich but they must listen for a call at any minute. Things are happening these days and the big rush is for adjournment in time for the national conventions. The usual proceedure followed by the state banking department in closing the affairs of the Old Adams. County Bank is in progress and there is nothing to cause comment or gossip. The steps will be published as they are taken and the public will be advised at all times as to the exact status. Every protection will be given to the depositor, stockholder and the community, you may rest assured. We can’t understand why they Yicrmit the New York and Chicago stock markets to continue to operate. Certainly no harm would be dona in closing them and it might give' some of those who think - -ar-. WAKE UP YOUR LIVER BILE—WITHOUT CALOMEL And You’ll Jump Out of Bed in the Morning Ratin’ to Go If you feel eour and mmk and the world looks f.unk, don’t swallow a lot of salts, mineral water, oil. laxative candy or chewing gu.-n and expect them to make you suddenly sweet and buoyant and full of sunshine. For they can’t do it. They only move ths towels and a mere movement doesn t vet at the cause. The reason for your down-and-out feeling is your liver. It should pour out two pounds of liquid bile into your bowels daily. It thia bile ia not (towing freely, your food doesn't digest. It just decays in the bowels. Gas bloats up your stomach. You have a thick, had taste and your breath ia foul, akin often breaks out in blemishes. Your head aches and you feel down and out. Your whole system la poisoned. It takes those good, add CARTER’3 LITTLE LIVER PILLS to get these two pounde of bile flowing freely and make you feel ’’up and up." They contain wonderful, harmless, gentle vegetable extracts, amazing when it eomas to making the bile flow freely. But don't ask for liver pills. Ask for Carter's Little Li»w Pill,. Look for the name Carter'i Little Liver Fills on the red label. Resent I euhalirata. 25c at all stores. G INI GM.Ce

tilings can't come buck while the prices are dropping, a chance to catch their breath. Os course they '■■on’t really come back until the general economic conditions ini--1 prove so why.waste time on them? Accidents fatal and otherwise, all L serious enough, are occurring at the Indianapolis speedway to pro- • vide sufficient headlines to create j the publicity necessary to attract , a crowd for the big show next 1 Monday when forty higli powered I I machines will race around the big 1 track for hours. The winner will receive a fat purse, some side prizes and a lot of fame, but the unlucky ones will pay a big price. Several already have. Taxes on toilet preparations, furs, jewelry, soft drinks, sporting goods, cameras, mechanical refrigerators, firearms and safety deposit boxes, if the senate amendment offered by the committee yesterday is approved. The measure also provides for a tax on boats ever 28 feet long if used. Some of these things we can get along without but some of them will inconvenience a lot of folks considerably. The bonus party traveling to Washington is attracting much attention. but just what they will do when they reach the capitol is still a matter of considerable conjecture. We believe most every one would be glad to provide the bonus for the boys if there was a sound way to do it but in these days when its a problem to meet the deficits, we io far have not provided a statesman who can figure out just where the money can be brought forth from. Memorial Day will be duly observed in this city under auspices of the American Legion, Spanish American veterans. W. R. C. and G. A. R., and a program of interest has been arranged. The occasion is one of the solemn ones of the year, a day set apart on which to pay due respect to those heroes who have defended the American flag and who have answered taps. In late years it has become more or less a day of sports, but millions es people over this fair land still cling to the old ideas for which the day was originally set apart. Jimmy Walker admits he made large profits from stock investments in the old days when the tickers were busy down on Wall and Broad streets, but if that’s a crime they can lock up several million who indulged likewise, to a greater or less extent. If the dude mayor is guilty of any thing that is really malfeasance in office, that ought tc be produced, but the evidence far seems to only be along the line of his investments and to that we fail to see any thing except what custom has made perfectly alright. It would be interesting to know whether Jimmy has any investments that are producing returns these days. o > » Household Scrapbook .

BRITISH LOSE I WHISKY FIGHT Berlin.—(U.R) A peculiar case inI voiving the so-called trade mark iby a German distillery, has been ! settled here against six British i whisky firms, which claimed in-! i fringoment of their rights on the grounds that "whisky” designated (a product of purely English origin. The British firms — James Bu- ’ (hanan. John Dewar. John Huig. John Walker, and the Distillate | Agency Ltd. of Edinburgh — sued 1 the Berlin distillers. Blackburn & Co., a leging that the latter’s des- • ignation of its product, made in Germany, as "whisky," was a violation of British rights in the term 1 and constituted a false advertisement. of the German product. 1 The Germans won, basing their defense on the grounds that • "whisky” did not designate the product of any particular town or ' community and its production is ' i not limited to the British Isles. I i Therefore, it becomes only a ■'generic term tor a universal product, such as. for example, "Swiss • i "heeae,” or “tweeds,” which, are : made in many parts of the world. j The sale of German-made whisky, thus, does not constitute a fraudii- | lent act. such as would the sale of i non-genuine Sheffield plate, for ex- - ample, they argued. The defend-

ants also cited the fact that whisky was made in Canada, Australia. Africa, and other countries, even as vodka is produced outside of Russia. They also argued that if “whisI l;y” designated a purely British j product, then many a German firm would have cause for suit for ’ infringement against English brewj cries for the production of “lager beer,” a product of recognized Ger- ; man origin. Expert Charges Railroads Injure Highway Program Salt Lake City, Utah. —(U.PJ —Australia's highway construction program is more or less hamstryng by i government ownership of railroads, according to Janies A. A. Pollock, 'engineering fellow of the University of Queensland at Brisbane. Pollock is touring the United , States studying the highway system. In Australia, he said, the government operates the railroads. Distances between population centers are so great and the consequent operating deficit so large that much of the tax money which should lie diverted to highways, goes toward maintaining the rail lines. o COURTHOUSE Marriage License Eugene Robert Wilcox.

One Investment that is Still Worth 100 Cents on the Dollar I’ ’■ ■ A savings account is one investment that has "stood up” while the prices of almost all other investments have gone down. During the past three years, security and commodity prices, real estate and farm values, have declined from their top of 1929 to their bottom of today. Few kinds of property or forms of human wealth have been exempt. Yet, in the 20,000 banks of the United States a savings account is still worth 100 cents on the dollar and continues to pay the depositor a steady ratt>ef interest. The men and women who have their money in savings accounts today have seen it grow, in contrast to those other investors who have watched the value of their various holdings steadily shrink in value. Events of the past two years have proved -to those who needed to have it proved that a savings account is still one of the best and safest investments in the world. . .
