That surely is a I certainty, for Dr. Shoop’s Headache Tablets stop it in 20 minutes, and the tablets simply distribute the unnatural blood pressure.

Some one sent the report to the state board o( health that lumpy-jaw-ed cattle and hogs which are considered diseased, under the classification of the new law, were slaughtered and sold to proprietors of eating houses on the Fairmount fair grounds last week, with the result that Frank W. Tucker, of Noblesville, food and drug inspector, spent Friday and Saturday at Fairmount trying to learn the truth of the matter. Mr. Tucker stated that he secured evidence which will result in the filing of charges against parties whom he believed to be implicated in the transaction, although at this time he refuses to divulge any names. For this offense is a fine of not less than SSO, nor more than SSOO to which may be added imprisonment for not less than six months. —Bluffton Banner. LEGAL ADVERTISING. APPOINTMENT OF ADMINISTRATOR.

A demand has been made for the strictest possible police surveillance in order that an increase in the rates of fire insurance, or possibly a cancellation of insurance, may not follow. There Is now a well-founded belief, which . Is universally shared by the local fire ’ underwriters, that a monomaniac is responsible for the starting of fires in second-floor offices during the ab- ' sence of the tenants and in and under stairways in .business blocks. James Milligan, an employee of the Van Wert Gas Electric Light and Power Co.,was found dead in bed about four o’clock this' morning, at his home on east Crawford street. Mr. Milligan was at his post of duty yesterday, and J appeared to be in health. Nothing in ‘his conduct or appearance during the evening Indicated that he was suffering from a malady, and he retired for the night apparently in his usual spirits. An examination conducted by Dr. R. R. Richlson, county coroner, revealed that death was due to apoplexy, and that he had succumbed in the early part of the night. Mr. Milligan was a man of family and was well known about town. His funeral will be held Thursday.

He will gather a bushel or so and then boll them. > The shell then opens Itself and the pearl, if there be any, will be easy to find. There is an average of three pearls to a bushel of shells. When Mr. Frisk gets the pearls he send to a New York firm. Pearl hunting is a very inter esting occupation.

In view of the fact that some of the members of the church have practiced giving one-tenth of their wealth to the church, a tithing society was formed" with A. B. Williams, president, and-A. W.

one killed, six, injured > Three Indiana People Were Badly Hurt—Occurred at Charleston, Illinois. Charleston, 111., Aug. 27. —One man was killed and six passengers dangerously injured in the wreck of a Clover Leaf passenger train at Bowman, twelve miles north of here today. Two cars jumped a switch and crashed into a box car. P. B. Conkling, of Texarkana, Tex., was instdnly killed. The injured were: Shirdop Robs, Kentland, Ind., head cut and internally injured. C. Provlne, New Douglass, 111., head badly bruised. Nelson Andersoif, Ashmore, 111., head injured and leg broken. J.-N. Green, Dana, Ind., ribs broken. James Green, Dana, Ind., leg and head injured. Charles Whipman Toledo, O„ head cut Ferguson, Ashmore, 111., chest crushed. The Injured were taken to Brockton and Charleston. The wreck was three miles south of where spikes were drawn in an attempt to wreck a train Sunday. For several months the criminal world in this country seem to have struck a mania for this dreadful work, the wrecking of passenger trains. Every possible effort will be made to discover the cause of these cars jumping the track and if it is suspicious, an effort will be made to run down the offender and punish them in away which will continue as a lesson co other inhuman persons who commit such acts. o TWO WERE SLIGHTLY INJURED Tom Vail and Harold Wilson Had an Exciting Experience With a Frightened Horse. Tuesday afternoon at about three o’clock Thomas Vail and Harold Wilcox figured in a runaway that might have proven much more serious than it did. The boys had returned from Winona and were delivering the campliig paraphernalia to the .different places where it had been borrowed. They were using Vail’s horse and wagon and. were driving east on Monroe street when th'e horse became frightened. The boys tried the best they could to manage the animal, but before they were aware of what was transspiring, the wagon ran into a buggy in front of the Tyrill blacksmith shop. In some manner, the hbrse broke loose from the wagon and the boys were both holding to the lines; consequently they were hurled over the dashboard into the street. Both boys were badly bruised and the injuries of Tom Vail required the attention of a physician, but the boys are congratulating themselves on escaping as luckily as they did. o :— FAMILY CARES. it This Infonpatidn May Be of Value to Many a Mother in Decatur. When * there is added to the many cares Inseparable from the rearing of children that affliction of weakness of the kidneys and auxiliary organs, the mother’s lot is far from a happy one. This condition can be quickly changed and absolutely lured by the use of Doan’s Kidney Pills. When this is known the mother’s burden will be lighter and her home happier. -Mrs. N. Case, living at 604 Russell street, Decatur, Ind., says: “In 1902 I gave for publication a statement recommending Doan’s Kidney Pills, because they had cured my little girl. She had been troubled for fifteen or twenty months with her back and whenever she caught a slight cold, it always settled in her back. She was constantly coinplaining of a dull aching pain over her kidneys. I gave her several remedies that were highly recommended for such trouble bust they gave little relief. I saw Doan’s Kidney Pills advertised and got her’ a box at the Holthouse Drug Co.’s store? they cured her and until this day t there has been no return of the complaint. My husband has also used Doan’s Kidney Pills for pains acrosd’”* his loins and they cured him. Doan’s Kidney Pills have my endorsement.” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.
