THE LAND OF PLENTY.

Peter J. Lux, of Shelby county, is this year's winner of the grand champion sweepstakes of the world for the finest ten ears of white corn, and the first prize of $500 in gold has been awarded him at the national corn show, being held at Columbus, Mo.

Indiana took two other prizes at the show, John Vogle, of Bartholomew county, winning the first prize of $100 for the best single ear.

Mr. Lux said he had been trying to wjn the grand prize at the show, which is open to the world, for ten years, and the fact that he had finally reached his goal showed that he had worked to win the prize. He has won many prizes in the state corn show every year at Purdue university.

Farmers in Johnson county have had almost a monopoly on the-first prizes at the world show for many years. The first prize has been brought back to that county many times, and Johnson county has won the reputation of being one of the finest corn growing territories in the country.

Farmers located in the Wabash valley can turn deaf ears to land agents from other parts of the country and Canada. That this is the garden spot Is proved by the immensity and quality of our products.

VIGO GAINS A MEMBER.

The supreme court yesterday handed down a decision which sustains the legislative district law passed by the i last legislature. This law provides that iwhere there are three or more representatives in a county, the county com,/missioners shall district the territory, .^*»*kfo,viding- for the election of a repress Native from each district.

Hon To Prevent Acid Stomachs And Food Fermentation

By a New York lMiyitleiuii. "My experience has fdrc^d me to the conclusion that most people who complain of stomach trouble possess etomachs that are absolutely healthy and normal. The real trouble, tha't which causes all the pain and difficulty,, is excessive acid in ihe stomach, aggravated by food fermentation. Hyperacidity irritates the delicate lining of the stomach abnormally, causing! that full bloated feeling. Thus both I acid and fermentation interfere with! and retard the process of dige&ti )n. The stomach wall is usually liealthv! and normal, but irritated almost past I enduranee by these foreign elements— acid and wind. In all cases—and they comprise a great majority of all sto.n-! ach difficulties—the first and only stop I necessary is to neutralize the acid and stop, the fermentation by taking in a little warm or cold water immediately I after eating, from one to two tea-1 spoonfuls of t'isurated magnesia, which is the most effective antacid and food! corrective I have ever found. The excess, acid will be neutralized and the I fermentation stopped almost instantly, and your stomach will at once proceed to digest the food in a healthy normal manner. Be sure to ask your druKRist for bisurated magnesia rather than magnesia in any other form."

If everything was sold in as liberal and fair a manner as Shandy's Court House Pharmacy is selling Schiffmann's New Concentrated Expectorant, absolutely no cause for complaint or dissatisfaction could possibly arise from anyone. These druggists say "Buy a bottle of this new remedy and try it for Bronchitis, Bronchial Asthma, Whooping Cough, Severe Cough, Croup or any Bronchial Affection, and we will return your money, just the same as we do with Dr. Schiffmann's famous Asthniador, if it does not give perfect satisfaction, or if it is not found the best remedy ever used for any of these complaints." In addition to this guarantee, in order that the public might try this remedy without further delay, these druggists announce that they have decided to make an eKtra inducement and will sell 200 regular 50c size bottles for half price, 25c, to the first 200 persons who sign and present the coupon below at their store. Although they and the propria, tor are losing money on every bottle sold at this price, they both have decided to stand this loss, so as to give those who have not yet used this ex. cellent remedy, an opportunity of trying it, at their loss, knowing it will be

ply with the law, Judge Evvbank, the same Judge who the other day declared section ten of the primary law to be unconstitutional, issued an injunction restraining the commissioners. The republican organization of Marion county pressed the suit before Judge Ewbank and also in the supreme court.

The law, directly effects Marion county, which has ten representatives, Vigo county will have three, Allen county three, St. Joseph county three, Vanderburg county three, Lake county four. Under the decision of the supreme court these Counties must be divided into as many districts as there are representatives to be elected.

The court's ruling is that the duties of the commissioners is legislative and free from interference by the -courts. The decision says: "In this state, county boards are recognizod by the constitution as local governmental agencies, (citation). When such delegation of power legislative in its nature has been, made or essayed, Its exercise by the body -upon which it is, or Is attempted to be bestowed, is deemed as free from Judicial control as though it were attempted by the legislature itself. The right of the courts to intervene arises after the exercise of the legislative function is accomplished and a question of the validity of the action is presented in some justifiable controversy,"

SUNKIST POTATOES.

Super refinement is beginning to distinguish everything from the pinkly tinted, professionally manicured finger nails ,of a man about town to a plain potato.

Nor is the potato that now comes wrapped individually in a square of tissue paper to be justly called plain. They have no warts such as feature and emphasize what are called plala. physiognomies and distinguishld the old-fashioned potato of commerce measured out by the barrel.

The big hotels buy the paper-gar-mented ones, and each one is guaranteed ready for baking, as eggs or apples Dr oranges are now guaranteed in quality. They have a name and almost a pedigree, one might say, and one of these days each aristocratic potato may arrive belted by a blue ribbon as an emblem of its lineage.

Not -surprising that a baked potato may see itself quoted at 25 cents on the bill of fare, or if it is at Saranac Lake it may be 40 cents, as one tomato still embalmed in memory dear— with the accent on the "dear"—was rated.

The potato de luxe or.lv makes it more certain that everything has now a de luxe brand for people from whose fingers drop., dollars like the dew from morning glsries on a September morning.

Qr as Joe Roach said to Henry Spaan at one interval in the Bell trial: "Upon what strange potato .does this, our Caesar, feed?"

FOREHANDED MEN.

Mr. George Rynick, of the Mutual Life Insurance company, makes an interesting point in an interview on life insurance when he points out that of the 12,000,000 or so dwellings in the United States 96 per cent, are protected, at least to some extent, by fire insurance. But of our 100,000,000 inhabitants only eighteen per cent, have taken out life insurance policies. Men seem to be more uneasy over the mere possibility of the burning of their houses than over the stern certainty that death will some day overtake them. This is a strange contradiction in human nature. To safeguard the nation's material possessions is well, but how much more valuable than the homes are the human lives of the country. In this age, when the principles of life insurance are so well un-

found the best medicine "ever used by anyone. Even though not in need of such a medicine at present, it will pay to obtain a bottle now at half price, as no doubt someone in the family will require it before the winter is over, but you will not have another chance of buying for less than full price.

One bottle makes a full pint (128 teaspoonsful) by simply mixing it at home with one pint of granulated sugar and one-half pint of water, and makes a whole family supply, and as much as would ordinarily cost from $2 to $3 for the same quantity of the ordinary, oldfashioned, ready-made kinds of doubtful merit and also without a guarantee, like this remedy. It is prepared from strictly harmless plants and is so pleasant that children like to take it and it can be given them with perfect safety, as it positively contains no chloroform, opium, morphine or any other narcotic, as do most cough mixtures. Absolutely no risk whatever is run in buying this remedy on the guarantee of the above well-known, reliable druggist.

If a neighbor or friend would take and pay for half the bottle, the cost of half a pint of this excellent medicine would only cost each about 12 cents.

NEW YORK, N Y.—Most people foolishly seem to think .they are going to get renewed health and strength, from stimulating medicinc, -secret nostrum or narcotic drug, said Dr. Sauer, a specialist of this city, when, as a matter of fact, real and true strength dan only come from the food you eat. But people often fail :o get the strength out of their food because they haven't enough iron In their blood to enable it to change food into living matter. From their weakened, I nervous condition they know some-1 thing is wrong, but they can't tell! what, so they generally commence doctoring for stomach, liver or kidney trouble or symptoms of some-other ail-I nient caused by the lack of iron in tliej blood. -This thing may go on for years, while the patient suffers untold agony. 1 If you are not strong or well, you owe it to yourself to make' the following! test. See ho^ long you can work or how far you can walk without becom-1 ing tired. Next take two five grain! tablets of ordinary nuxated iron thrae times per day after meals for two weeks. Then test your strength again and see for yourself how much you

But don't take the old forms of reduced iron. Iron acetate or tincture of iron simply to save a few cents. You must take iron In a form that can be easily absorbed and assimilated like nuxated iron if you want it to do you any good,: otherwise it .nay prove worse than useless. Many an athlete or prize fighter has won the day simply because he knew the secret of great strength and endurance and filled his blood with iron before he went into the affray, while ma'ny another has gone down to inglorious defeat simply' for the lack of iron.

Note Nuxated Iron recommended above by Dr. Sauer. is one of the newer organic iron compounds. Unlike the older inorganic iron products, it is easily assimilated, does not injure the teeth, make them black, nor upset the stomach on the contrary, it is a most potent remedy, in nearly all forms of indigestion, "as well as for nervous, run-down conditions. The manufacturers have such f?reat confidence in Nuxated Iron that they offer to forfeit $100.00 to any charitable institution if they cannot take any man or woman under 60 who lacks iron and increase their strength 200 per cent or over in four weeks' time provided they have no serious organic trouble.. They also offer to refund your money if it does not at least double your strength and endurance in ten days' time. It is dispensed In this city by CI. W. Hoffman and all other druggists.

In many instances the former codld not be saved from foreclosure were the earners of incomes to pass away leaving their families unprovided for. It is as much the duty of every man to insure his life as to insure his property, and if he has no insurable property, there is all the more reason for insuring his life.

WEATHER FOR 1916 IS GOING TO BE TOUGH

Doc. Hicks Says Get Out Your ]&rmuifs and Wristlets—"Bunk" Says Cade.

If you are an optimist it might not hurt you to glance over the 1916 almanacs, just arrived in Terre Haute. Tako the one published by Rev. Irl R. Hicks, for instance. Here's its forecast:

Beginning with unsettled weather the first of the year, heavy storms will come in January, February and March. There'll be a late spring, followed by a stormy and cool summer, with frosts toward the end of August or early in September.

Unusual cold late in September will usher in an early fall with a cold October and an unsettled November. A blizzard will hit the northwestern and central states late in December.

Weatherman Cade looked over the almanac, but didn't enthuse. "The book tells lots about the kind of weather that's coming, but doesn't say where," he said.

HOW TO GET RIO OF

The only, sure way to get permanently rid of either oily or dry dandruff is to remote the conditions that cause it an dthen keep the hair and scalp in a permanent, clean, healthy, vigorous state so dandruff will never return. This beats shampoos or head washes which merely drive away dandruff for a few days at most. A number of other better druggists in this vicinity are now strongly recommending a harmless, inexpensive and quick acting preparation called Parisian Sage that they say is guaranteed to act directly on the cause of dandruff and which already has become known far and wide as a safe and efficient treatment which cannot possibly injure hair or scalp.

Here is a test worth trying. Get a package of Parisian Sage. Rub a little of it into the scalp with the finger tips arid see for yourself how the dandruff disappears, the hair stops falling out. the itching vanishes, and a new ami Vigorously healthy appearance comr-s over the hair. Good looking hair i. hall' the ba:tle in any man or woman" personal appearance and nothing hurts the hair more than dandruff. Try a little Parisian Sage and begin at once to be rid of it.

THE CRY BABY

Don't be a cry baby. Don't coddle yourself. Don't be afraid of getting hurt. You ought to save money. Few people can save money without denying themselves more or less. This hurts. But no one can be a man who is not willing to suffer in the present for advantage in the future.

William James said that everyone ought to do one or two things every day that he doesn't want to do just for practice. Go without something you want, deny yourself some luxury, or even necessity, but put something in the savings bank every week.

You will not only get money, but you will get character by it.
