Democrats Present:— From top to bottom ,the Democrat ticket in Adams county otters you quality, experience and ability. These candidates were selected by the people at the May Primary election and very seldom does a majority of people so closely knitted as in a county unit go far wrong in selections of candidates. Judge Myles F. Parrish, seeking a second term as Judge of Adams circuit court, has built an enviable record during his more than five years on the bench. He has been fair, but firm in every action brought to his court. He will continue to do so as long as he is retained in this important post. Judge Parrish is a native son, who has made an excellent record from, his college days, through World War If and up to the present Dick Lewton, candidate "Tor county clerk served four years as county treasurer, leaving an excellent record in that office. He is a native of Root township and has a splendid business record which should help him in his duties as clerk of Adams circuit court. Merle Affolder, Wabash township World War H veteran has bad experience for three years as deputy Sheriff. Prior to that he served more than two years as a game warden in the state department of conservation. Affolder is the type of man who will bring credit to the office of sheriff. Walter Koos, for many years a successful Adams county farmer knows land values perhaps as well as any man in the county. As county assessor "Ke" will bring to that’ offise the--qualification's which should make the Adams county assessor's office second to hone in Indiana. William J. (Bill) Kruse, candidate for joint state representative from Adams and wells counties, farmer, soldier and business man has the experience and ability which should make him a valuable man from a local standpoint to represent us and he likewise will be a worth while cog in the machinery which will grind out legislation ’affecting all the people of Ipdiana. The two Democrat candidates for commissioner. Harley J. Reef, incumbent from the third district and John Kintx, second district, are of unimpeachable integrity and ability. Reef has been a watchdog of county expenditures during his first term in office and

Gallstones Aren't Restricted to Women

By MERMAN N. BUNKSEN, M.D. WHEN I went to medical school, and we were studying gallstones, we were taught that persons most likely to develop this condition were fair, fat, fertile females of forty. This meant that women who were overweight and who hate had a number of children were the ones most likely to develop this disease. However, now comes new evidence that this is by no means correct. It is true that most women who develop gallstones have had children, out so also have most other women. , Related to Ago 1 Gallstones, like many other diseases, are more common in the later years of life, but they also occur in young adults and have even been found In children. In many investigations of gallbladder disease, it is found that more than one-third of the cases occurred in persons under forty years of age. Also, the disease is more common in women than in men, a fact which has perhaps hidden the diagnosis in men who have had such symptoms u excessive add in the stomach and indigestion. It is interesting to note that in certain countries several years after the war there was a rapid

has been strong and successful in his demands for better roads in the county system. Kinta, long time farmer and active in many civic affairs will bring to the county board incomparable strength and confidence which all the citisens want. " Senator Von Eichhorn, Wells county, joint senator from Adams, Blackford and Wells counties is Unopposed for reelection. He has done a hard job well and we believe he will continue to represent all the people of his district in the same aggressive manner. Lewis L. Smith, completing his first term as prosecuting attorney for Adams county also is unopposed and we know that he will continue to operate his important office with all the vigor and honesty and ability in bis command. Fred W. Greene, Fort Wayne attorney who heads the ticket as the Fourth district congressional candidate, is well qualified and a veteran campaigner. He has the ability to take to our national congress the thoughts and ideals of the common man. • And Adams county has a special interest in the state Democrat ticket this year in that a local attorney, Severin Schurger Is a candidate for the appellate court. Schurger is well known in northeastern Indiana and Is well fitted to serve on the high state bench. What more in public servants could anyone want. A straight Democrat vote November 2,' .we believe, will give you the kind of administration in government affairs to which you are entitled and which you always want —0 -O ‘■The frost is on the punkins and the fodder's in the shock.” It begins to look and feel like autumn. —-0 0 it's only a few weeks until Christmas, a good thing to remember while getting ready for the election.

He will appreciate your support. -—0- 0 The Athletics baseball team will remain in Philadelphia. Tough on Kansas 'City but quite a tribute to the Mack family. One of Connie’s sons will continue in the organization after a tremendous fight to keep the team there.

Increase tn the number of cases of gallstones discovered. It is believed that this may have followed removal on the restrictions of certain foods, particularly fatty foods. An excess of fatty foods is definitely harmful. Not only does It cause a general gain In weight, but fat may also be deposited in the liver, which Interferes with the action of this organ and may eventually lead to serious liver disease. The symptoms of gallstones are pain in th. upper right part of the abdomen, together with sickness of the stomach, sometimes vomiting and jaundice, due to an accumulation of bile coloring matter in the blood. Os course, whenever such symptoms are present, the doctor should be consulted at once. QUESTION AND ANSWER J. 0.: How would a normal person taking Insulin for ten months react to It? Answer: Insulin given to a normal person will, of course, cause a reduction In the blood sugar. If too much Is taken, it may cause attacks of weakness or even unconsciousness. Insulin, however, has been used, under the direction of the physician, for aiding persons to gain weight, but is only reauired In exceptional cases.

CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE THE DOOR opened, and the little red-haired nurse stepped inside Ralph's room. 1 put the gun back in my pocket “Yes, doctor?" the nurse said. He said in a tight voice, “Please . .bring me a nypo and three hundred thousand units ot penclllin." . She nodded, glanced at me curiously, and left. Dr. Mazzini said, "What the hell is this all about?” “Never mind." He shrugged helplessly and turned back to the bed. Ralph stirred a little and muttered something incoherently. The doctor watched Ralph, and 1 watched the doctor. We didn't talk. Presently the nurse returned, handed him a needle. He said to her, “Will you give it to him, please?" “Ot course.” As she bent over the bed, the doctor looked at me with dark, brooding eyes. As the nurse turned and moved for the door, ne said to tier, “Tm going home now., I’U be back in the morning. If ills condition changes during the night, call me. It's all on the chart. You'd better tell Miss Donovan, too." “Yes, doctor." The door clicked shut behind her. He said sardonically, “Satisfied?" "For now." I backed to the door. “Why, tn God's name— ?" he began. “Doctor," I broke tn. 'lf I’m wrong, I'U apologize. Do you mind if 1 keep your hypo?" "Would it make any difference to you if I did?" he asked bitterly. “No.” "It's loaded with venom,” he said mockingly. “Or maybe arsenic. U you hadn't stopped me in the nick of time, Ralph would be dead by now. 1 suppose, being a famous detective, you know my motive.” “Yea,” 1 said. He gazed at me silently. Then 'he smiled and moved to the door. “You’re wrong," he said quietly. 1 sighed. "Maybe 1 am. I hope I am. If Ralph Uvea, let's just forget the whole thing." "And If he dies?" 1 shrugged. ■ “Bennett,” he said tn a level voice. ”1 should beat you to a pulp." He was big enough to do it, and much younger besides, but 1 said, “You’re welcome to try. We’d better go outside, though."

For a moment I thought he was going to take me up on it But he didn’t “That wouldn’t prove anything," he said. He smiled now, a bitter twist of his Ups, and went out leaving the door ajar. When 1 stepped to the corridor, 1 saw him talking to the nurse on the desk. Then he left without looking at me. The little red-haired nurse swished past me. 1 touched her arm. "Miss.” She stopped and turned. Her eyes were sky-blue and she had freckles over her short nose. I took a twenty-dollar bill from my waif, let and handed it to her. "Take good care* of him tonight will you?" She glanced at the twenty, and then at me. "Os course, but you don’t need to pay me.” “Just stay with him." I tucked the twenty Into a pocket of her white uniform, beside the clip of a thermometer. •Thank you," she said. “Are you a relative of Ralph’s?" “Just a friend. What’s your name?” "Mary Lou Doyle.” “I'm counting on you, Doyle," I said, thinking that there should be someone 1 could count on. I left her standing there and went out into the windy night. Dr. Mazzini was turning into the drive at Daisy Brown's house before 1 caught up with him. 1 cut my lights and coasted to a stop in front of the church and watched as he put the Ford in the garage and entered the house by a rear entrance. Light showed at an upstairs window, and a blind came down. Dr. Mazzini was home at last, but too late for Daisy Brown to give him my message. I turned on the Mercury’s lights, swung around in the street, and drove back to the square. The lights in Dan’s Place were still bright. 1 parked at the curb and went inside, thinking that a little bourbon might boost my sagging spirits. There were several men at the bar, a few couples tn the booths. Ths Juke bo* was turned low on the old Bunny Berigan recording of I Can’t Get Started, a long-time favorite of mine. "Well, sir?” the bartender said. “Bourbon and soda." He nodded, and then squinted at me. “Ain’t you the guy that asked lor Earl Saltzman tonight?”

Ike Starts On 'Non-Political' Speeches Today Harriman Labels Charges By Ives Slanderous Attack WASHINGTON (INS) — President Eisenhower took off today for two days of "non-polltical” politicking in Connecticut and New York where a key gubernatorial contest hit a fever pitch Monday night. The Chief Executive's visit to New York, where he will deliver a major address tonight, is designed to give a boost to GOP congressional candidates as well as Sen. Irving M. Ives, who is waging a bitter hattie with Democrat W. Averell Harriman for the governorship. Ives fanned the gubernatorial campaign to white heat Tuesday night with a charge that Harriman had been chairman of a firm which was involved in a 1250.000 New York waterfront pay-off in the 1920*8. Ives, who interrupted an upstate campaign tour to make the charge over a statewide television network, said a shipping firm, in which Harriman had an interest, paid the sum to a Brooklyn judge’s law clerk to obtain a lease on docks controlled by Tammany Hall. Ives alsd quoted Harriman as saying he knew nothing about Hie deal 24 years ago, when the scandal was first made known, but the GOP senator argued that Tammany Hall would control the state house if the Democrat wins. Harriman labelled the charges by Ives "a slanderous attack” on his personal Integrity and denied any knowledge of the incident. Mr. Eisenhower s half-hour speech before the American Jewish tercentenary dinner tonight has been billed as nonpolitical. as has a second major address he will de-, liver in New York Thursday night at the Alfred E. Smith memorial dinner. Presidential aides smile when they say “non-political,” however, and Mr. Eisenhower is expected to show no restraint in discussing such “non-partisan”' matters as foreign policy and the nation's economic prospects. The President started his speech-making today in Hartford, Conn., where he made a brief Impromptu talk in accepting an honorary doctor of laws degree from Trinity College.

“Yep." “Find him?” “Nope.” "He musta left the card game." “Yea,” I said. "Had some excitement tonight Shooting. A trash can out tn the alley ia full of bullet holes. Happened right after you was in here. Some city hunter, drunk, I suppose, and—" “Bourbon," 1 said gently. “And soda.’’ “Yes, sir." He turned away. A big man three stools down swung to face me. He had been talking to two other men tn overalls. “Hello, there," he said heartily, and stuck out a big red hand. "Remember me?" “Sure,” 1 said, taking Jake Fortune's hand. He grinned at me, showing his big yellow teeth, and snapped his fingers. “Bennett, that’s It I never forget a name Homer Hollis* girl works for you." “That’s right" The bartender brought my drink, and I sipped at it Jake Fortune frowned. “Too bad about Ralph. Have you heard how he is?" “No change. I was at the hospital around midnight" He shook his head. “A terrible thing. Ralph's a fine boy. He's engaged to marry my daughter, you "I know. Tough on her, too." He nodded in agreement “She wanted to stay at the hospital, but I took her home. Nothing she can do, and she needs her rest if—” He paused and sighed. He nodded again, gloomily. "1 made her go to bed, and 1 came back to town for a night cap. Can I buy you a drink?" 1 held up my glass. 'This will do me, bUt thanks." He turned on the stool and said to me, "My daughter told me that Judy Kirkland hasn’t even bothered to ask about how Ralph is getting along." “I know,” 1 said. “Bandy told me." , “Bandy’s a good girl,” he said. “A mignty fine girl. A lot like Homer, a square shooter." “Yes." 1 said. The bartender brought a fresh drink, and 1 lifted it to Jake Fortune. He held up his own glass. "Mud in your eye, and all that."

Trial Lawyers Os Different Caliber Sheppard Case Is One Os Contrasts CLEVELAND (INS) — The two men charged with the task of proving the Innocence or guilt of accused wife-killer Dr. Samuel H. Sheppard are as different as the paths they pursue. Chief defense attorney William Corrigan is a white-haired veteran criminal lawyer with a flare for the dramatic. Prosecutor John Mahon is slow-, deliberate and speaks plain and simple language. The buffer between the two men is Judge Edward Blythin, a purposeful 70-year-old 'Welshman who has been a “dignified” public servant for many years. The three principals charged with handling the trial offer a study in personality contrast Each ope plays his part in this drama— Ohio's and Cleveland’s most sensational murder mystery case in years. Let's look at William Corrigan. He is an “old pro" who' has been "trying ’em for 40 years.” He is a short man. with a square chin and Wrinkled face, topped by a wave of white hair that shows his maiiy years. He is blessed with a “golden voice” which he uses to its fullest effect. His manner in the dimly —Htcourtroom is one of continual activity.

courtroom. He is restless, bubbling with energy, andyrtiows it by moving from chair to chair on the defense side of the table, leaning against the bar in front of the judge’s rostrum and occasionally taking a seat in the yet-to-be filled jury box. — His counterpart on the other side of the large mahogany table— John Mahon—is the average-Amer-ican type, who has been with the prosecutor’s office for 22 years and has tried many of Cleveland's outstanding murder cases during that time. He probably has gained less fame than Judge Blythin or Corrigan but has built an outstanding reputation with a good “batting average” on convictions. Blythin, who speaks with a Welsh brogue and occasionally breaks the courtroom tension with a well timed quip, has prepared himself well for what promises to be a lengthy legal battle. Despite the fierce legal struggle between the two sides and the iron-fisted decorum maintained by the juris.t all of the principals maintain a »-arm personal feeling for each other. in the heart of battle they drop their formality and address each other by their first names.

Kable against Mildred Acker, the amended second additional paragraph pt the complaint has been filed by the plaintiff. The plaintiff demands $706.42. VOTERS FOR JUDGE Read What Thia Candidate Says Homes are the foundation of our society. They mean so much we can not afford to lose a single home which might be saved. Saving homes is saving J our American way of life. Every action for divorce or separation presents the Court an opportunity to save a home. But how often do they really try to do that? Marriages and homes cart only be saved by sitting down around a conference table and trying to work out a reconciliation by finding a solution to the couple’s problems. It can’t be done by denying divorce on legal technicalities. It can't be done by mere Opposition to easy divorce. It can only be done by gathering around the conference table, hearing both sides and trying to find a real honest to goodness solution. ‘ Without making any claim that all marriages can be saved and all divorces avoided I do assure you an honest effort will be made to work out a reconciliation in every divorce action which comes before the Court so that a home may be saved. It is past time for a new approach to divorce proceedings. Yours for a better Adams County, Earl E. Dawaid CANDIDATE FOR JUDGE Adams Circuit Court Pol. Advt.
