MONDAY, JULY 26, 1915.

DAY GAINS STtADiLK

Merchants Prepare to Continue Plan Throughout Summer and in Winter if Roads Are Good.

Suburban day, with its multifold offers and opportunities to the careful shopper, "will come again to the people of Terre Haute and the surrounding country Wednesday and in preparation the merchants were engaged in a close survey of their stock Monday. During the past two weeks the mid-week sale day has been growing in favor among those for whom it was Intended. Though the merchants want the people of this city to take part in the sale and to derive from it as much benefit as they can, nevertheless the day was projected more for the resident of the smaller near-by towns who have not the same opportunities for shopping.

When the day was in its infancy, before the people had fully com# to the realization of what the big offers really ment to them in the way of saved dollars, more people from the city were to be seen on the streets than those who live in the suburbs. Of late it has been a different story, and though the local people have been coming down town on the day, there has been a great predominance of the country folk in the stores. This change in the attitude of the out-of-town buyer has greatly encouraged the merchants and they think that in the near future that Terre Haute will be one of the most popular trading centers in the state.

With a view of keeping the good will of the people who are rapidly coming to know that the merchants of this city are sincere in their endeavor to better the trading conditions and incidentally the people of the state, the merchants announce that the Suburban day plan will oontinue during the rest of the summer and probably through the winter unless the cold -weather brings conditions which will make the roads unsuitable for travel.

INDIANA NEWS BBIEFS.

VINCETTNES—John Madig&n, «6, was decapitated by a passenger train here. Madlsran was a crossing watchman and had been employed by the Baltimore and Ohio railroad for forty years.

INDIANAPOLIS—Five persons were injured, one perhaps fatally, in an automobile accident here. Hayner Bloom, 15 years old, was driving the car which turned over when thee boy attempted to pass another machine. Hayner's father, Henry Bloom, may die as a. result of injuries he sustalneed in the accident.

FRANKFORT—Relatives of Miss Georgle Lough and Miss Grace Walters, of this city, who were reported missing in the Eastland disaster, received word today that they had been rescued.

CHANGE THE VIBRATION It Makes for Health

A man tried leaving off meat, potatoes, coffee, etc.* and adopted a breakfast of fruit, Grape-Nuts with cream, some crisp toast and a cup of Postum.

His health began to improve at once for the reason that a meat eater will reach a place once in a while where his system seems to become clogged and the machinery doesn't work smoothly.

A change of this kind puts aside food that is slow to digest and takes up food and drink of the highest value, already partly digested and capable of being quickly changed Into good, rich blood and strong tissue.

A most valuable feature of GrapeNuts is the natural mineral elements (phosphate of potash, etc.,) grown In the grains from which it is made. These elements are absolutely necessary for the well-balanced rebuilding of body, brain and nerves.

A few days* use of Grape-Nuts will show one a way to physical and mental strength well worth the trial.

Look in pkgs. for the little book, "The Road to Wellville." "There's a Reason."

TERRE HAUTE BOY IS SAFE OFF EASTLAND

Loren Paxton Notifies His Family of Narrow Escape That He Had.

Mourning the loss of his fellow em ployes, Loren J. Paxton, Haute boy, employed in the Western Electric company offices at Chicago, and who escaped from the Eastland disaster by but a hair, wrote a letter to his family here Monday advising them of his safety. The letter follows:

Chicago, 111., July 26, 1915.

Mr. H. R. Paxton, International Harvester Company of America,

Terre Haute, Ind.

Dear Sister and Brother:—Was extremely fortunate in escaping that most horrible disaster of the Eastland.

Hundreds of people at the Western Electric company that I am associated with in some way are gone. It is all too bad. I was taking a boat that left later. I certainly consider myself lucky In having decided to take a boat that left at a later hour.

I do not know what the Western Electric company will do. Several of their officers are lost or in the hospitals here. Hundreds of their employes aro gone. They will, in all probability, close the works and offices for a few days.

You bet I was lucky. Tell my friends hello, and that I am O. K. With very best wishes,

L. J. PAXTON.
