Uur advertisers are talking long and loud in today's issue of the Banner Times. They know a good thing when they see it and know that tlie Banner Times reaches the alert buyers.

The law at Indianapolis gave Thomas Ash one year for passing five counterfeit dimes; the same law gave Johnson, tlie banK-wreck-er, v\ho stole half a million dollars and violated all the statutes on banking, ruined a score of people and financially pinched hundreds, got two years. There is something wrong some where. Greater penalties should lie provided for bankwreckers or tlie amateur coin maker should be merely given a reprimand. I'lie scales of justice do not balance

THE EIGHTEENTH
Annual Commencement of the' Greencastle High School. Heretofore in High school commencements tlie white dresses of the graduates have been the envy of the audience, not so much for the beauty of the airy costumes as for the seeming comfort they contained. Tins year there was an exception. The weather clerk tried to even up on the matter and be about succeeded. The black clothes of the spectators, dr ‘ss suits, etc., were none too heavy, and the man with a true base burner effect inter woven into his garments was at the head of tlie class on comfort. This pleasant cool weather made the large audience comfortable and the absence of a sea of moving fans kept Hie noise to a minimum and the speeches could be easily heard in the remotest parts of the room. The usual High School jam was present. 'I be seats. galleries, aisles and standing room filled up rapidly after the doors were opened at seven o'clock and the choice scats outside of the reserves were soon taken. More seats were re-

He spoke feelingly to the graduates and told them how thev had grown into bis life in tlie past ten years and be trusted he bad grown into theirs His parting advice was splendid, and he eompli menteoi highly the eflicient corps of of teachers to whose etforts was largely due the good that had been accomplished. Diplomas were then conferred upon the following grad-

Since the discovery of this great remedy nen and women who keep themselves reasonl

Paine's celery compound is used with perfect assurance in those households where only an intelligent, authentic remedy can get any consideration. As a spring remedy nothing compan - with it. As physicians are all the time saying: The pain over the hull lev s. headaches and the misery of nervous debility should be met by Paine’s Celery compound. Its invigorating action is at once felt by llte irritated, wornout nerves and brain. It makes new blood. I brings fresh strength and vigor to tired, wornout men, weary women anti to sickly children.
