THE HOLTHOUSE DRUG CO. — Mr. S. L. Bowen, of Wayne. W. Va., writes: “ I was a sufferer from kidney disease, so that at times I could not get out of bed, and when I did I could not stand straight. I took Foley s Kidney Cure. One dollar bottle and part of the second cured me entirely.” Foley’s Kidney Cure works wonders where others are total failures. THE HOLTHOUSE DRUG CO. —■ E, J.

TIM CAME BACK) Reception to Congressman Watson—Favor Financial Commission Washington, April 7—Many of the most influential commercial bodies of the country are filing protests against the Aldrich currency bill with the house committee on banking and currency. Hearings on the bill will begin before the committee Wednesday. In the seven days that have been allowed for the hearings it is probable that a large number of men will come beforie the committee, if the witnesses who come forward should be of a distinctly representative character and should succeed in impressing the committee with the idea that the Fow, ler bill is a satisfactory and feasible plan, it is entirely possible that a form of the Fowler bill may be substituted for the Aldrich bill, but so far as can be learned from the committee, there is no member except the chairman who believes it would be possible to put forward the complete Fowler bill with any chance of success. Even if, however. nothing more than the currency feature of the Fowler bill could be accepted, it would be, in the opinion of reformers, an important achievement. What they are afraid of is that the persons who appear will spend their whole time in denouncing the Aldrich bill without furnishing any satisfactory substitute therefor.

Washington, April 7.—While the roll was being called in the house on the passage of the employers’ liability bill yesterday the Republican side of the chamber set up a cheer and engaged in handclapping. James E. Watson, the Republican nominee for governor of Indiana, had just appeared. The demonstration was so great that the roll call had to be suspended temporarily. After the house was able to resume business Mr. Watson was surrounded by memebrs who wanted to ffer congratulations. For twenty minutes he held a reception. Within that time nearly every Republican member of the body and many of the Democrats shook hands with him. Before the reception was over his name was called on the employers’ liability bill and he voted for it. He says he expects to be here right along until the end of the session.

Washington, April 7. —Representative Hill, of Connecticut, a member of the house committee on currency, told President Rbosevelt that he had made a careful poll of the house and found that a majority of the members were in favor of a financial commission to consider the financial question in all its aspects, between now and the time for the convening of the next congress. —— o WHILE VISITING SON The Family Had Planned to Attend Literary Exercises at School

Mrs. Susan Smith while visiting with her son, J. M. Smith in Jefferson township, met with a serious accident last Thursday afternoon while getting out of a buggy at the Booher school house. The aged lady, who is more than seventy-four years old, accompanied her son's family to the school house, where the last day of school was to be commemorated by literary exercises. As she was getting out of the vehicle, she lost her balance, fell to the ground with much force, breaking her hip. She was at once removed to the home where medical aid was administered. However, her condition is serious as the injuries along with other ailments characteristic to old age. have rendered her absolutely helpless. ’ She is at present in a very serious condition and but slight hopes arc enteertained fuller recovery. The afflicted woman was born near Monroe and is known by a large number of the residents of the county, all of whom will regret to hear of her sad misfortune. -o THE TRAIN WAS DELAYED. No. 6 Clover Leaf Train Delayed by Slight Wreck. This morning the passenger train No. 6, which arrives here on the Clover Leaf railroad at 4:26, was delayed three hours, or more, arriving here about 8:30 o'clock. The delay was cauesed by the chair car number five jumping the track at the city called Linden. Ind., and the passenger train could not possibly pass. No one was hurt and the car was not even dam aged, yet it caused a great deal of excitement among the passengers. —— “ Chicago Nationals League Park, Ft. Wayne, Friday, April 10.

“IN A BREATH OF AIR” Health Comes From Knowing How and What to Breathe. Both health and disease come “in a breath of air.” Dust laden with the germs of consumption or other disease is inhaled on every street, but disease does not develop unless the germs find conditions suitable for growth. Un the catarrhal condition there is an ideal culture medium for these germs, as the weakened tissues are like a hotbed where the germs thrive and multiply until dangerously active. If you have catarrh, use the easiest. simplest and quickest cure, the direct method of Hyomel. wnose wonderful medicated air destroys germs and makes catarrh and germ infection impossible. You do not risk a cet in testing Hyomei’s healing virtues, for with every SI.OO outfit Holthouse Drug Co. give a guarantee to refund the money if it fails to cure. — ~ o— DID NOT WORRY OVER ESTATE. * Relatives of Louis Rieter, who shot himself while enroute from his brother's home north of here to Fort Wayne on an interurban car. Friday evening, vigorously deny the statement made in the story of the affair that his ill health had been caused from worry over the settlement of his parents estate, He s|ad no reason for such worry and his ill health came from a nervous breakdown from which he isufferted (several months. The /unei«l was conducted yesterday from his residence at Fort Wayne and was attended by a large number of relatives and friends, he having been very popular both in this county and Fort Wayne.

The blanket remonstrance filed a few days ago at Angola has been held to be valid, and the seven saloons in that city must go out of business with the expiration of their present licenses. Invitations are out announcing the fact that the Columbian club will give their annual Easer ball Monday evening, April 20. These boys have proven themselves royal entertainers and all who have been fortunate enough to receive an invitation to the affair would do well to attend and enjoy the hospitality of the Columbian boys. Fifty cents admission will be charged. Good music will be furnished.
