o The testimonial tribute paid to Chiropractic by W. F. Kreke, 24% -Thirteenth and One-half street, reads like a modern day miracle. Added weight is given Mr. Kreke's testimonial

Wcause of the high esteem accorded him in the national, as well as local, railroad circles. "I know that nothing could have done i-- the same amount of good for me that 1- Mr. Thomas' Chiropractic adjustments -did, because I tried everything else' ficfet. I frankly told Mr. Thomas I had nc faith in his science, but I afterward learned that faith was unnecessary.

MR. W. F. KREKE.

"All my trouble started about two sand one-half years ago," said Mr. Kreke. "Until that time I had always enjoyed wonderful health and had never missed a day's work. I,was engaged as yard conductor in the Duane yards of the Big Four railroad, and during the four years I had been working at this position I had never lost a minute through sickness. I began to suffer severe pains in my back and my general health gradually became undermined. I began losing weight: I had hardly no appetite at all, and, worst of all,: I was unable to rest or sleep at night. Of course, as people will, I began taking all kinds of 'dope' and upon securing no relief, I consulted a doctor. "I was finally forced to give up my position, and spent the most of my time in bed, I suffered untold agonies and, while I could get relief for a short time, no permanent relief or cure was effected. I treated with four of the best medical doctors I could find and the concensus of their opinion was that I had an enlargement of the kidneys. My condition became so bad that upon consuiting a specialist I was told an operation and the removal of the kidney was the only thing that would ever do me any good. My family physician told

*ne

that if I thought anything

-, could do me any good for me to try it, ,* because nfr case was too much for him. j.. As a last resort—and without any

faith and much skepticism I went to s,' see Mr. Thomas.

REALTY MEN PREPARE Bit BOOSTER DINNER

Expect Many Guests and Big Event Thursday Evening—Will Complete Organization,

The Terre Haute Real Estate board has about completed plans for a big booster dinner to be given in the bal! room at the Hotel Deming, Thursday evening at 6:30 o'clock. "This will be an occasion which no real estate man in Terre Haute can afford to miss, as the organization among the local men will be completed at this time and there will also be a number of talks by members of real estate

"Mr. Thomas was able to tell me exactly my condition'without any information. Duping the process of palpating my spine to Ipcate the subluxated vertebrae, the mere pressure of Mr. Thomas* finger nearly caused me to faint. Mr. Thomas gave me my first adjustment on March 17, 1916. During the two preceding days and nights I had not closed my eyes in sleep. After taking an adjustment the patient must lie flat upon his back and rest. I told Mr. Thomas this was impossible in my case, as I had not lain on my back for over two years. However, Mr. Thomas rolled me over on my back and I felt no pain. In a few minutes I was asleep and did not awaken for over two hours. "From the first adjustment I began to feel better, and the first night I enjoyed a good night's rest. After my second adjustment I passed a second peaceful night, retiring at 8 p. m. and not waking until 8:30 the following morning. The first week I gained two pounds. I have taken adjustments now for the past six weeks, during which time I have gained twenty-four pounds in weight I sleep like a baby my appetite is fine and my general health could not be better. "I owe my recovery directly to Mr.

Thomas' method of giving Chiropractic adjustments. To me Chiropractic is the most wonderful science on earth, and from a non-be.liever I have become one of its most ardent boosters. I don't care what the ailment is I would unhesitatingly recommend the patient to give Mr. Thomas a fair trial. No drugs are used, nor machinery of any kind. Chiropractic is the science which removes the cause of disease and gives nature a chance to restore the patient to health. "Should anyone care to investigate my story I would be only too glad to have them call or write me at my home, for there is nothing I would not do to help spread the doctrine' and story of Chiropractic as practiced by Mr. Thomas."

The following are graduates of^the Palmer Fountain Head School of Chiropractic, Davenport, la. Our son, Robert Thomas, of Brazil, can render the same service and give the same adjustments as given at our offfice:

Bar Pays Tribunte.

The resolutions adopted by the bar association follow: The members of the Vigo County bar, in common with all the people of our city, have learned with profound sorrow and regret of the death of our beloved brother, Harry Gardiner Thompson, w'ho died at the residence of his sister, Mrs. D. W. Henry, at 6:10 o'clock Tuesday morning. Our deceased brother was born in this city on May 15, 1852, and except for absence in Washington during the incumbency of his honored father as secretary of the navy, was a resident of this city: during his whole life. He was a son of the Hon. Richard WThompson, who Was secretary of the na^y in the cabinet of President Rutherford B. Hayes. After completing his education at the Terre Haute high sdhool, the subject of this memorial J?r°

up the

study of medicine in

Washington, while acting as private secretary for his father. After- the resignation of his father, Mr. Thompson remained in.. Washington to pursue the study.of medicine, in which he was greatly? .'Jn-wr^sted, and in which he showe a mark fd'ability and aptitude. Subsequently, due to the death of a brother, who had been companion to his father,. Mr.. Thompson, with his usual self-3acrificing conduct, gave up the pursuit of his studies in Washington and returned to Terre Haute to become and remain until the death of his father, whom he greatly loved and revered, his constant companion. Mr. Thompson, by nature, was modest, unostentatioite and unassuming, almost to the point of diffidence, but he was always a student and great reader, and his mind was stored with an inexhaustible supply of -useful information upon almost all general topics. His long association with his father who was a distinguished lawyer, an4 his ready access to "his law library, acquainted him with a general knowledge of the law, and- in the year 1877 he was admitted to the bar of the courts of this county. While he never engaged actively in the. practice of the law. his education In the law peculiarly fitted him for other activities and usefulness in later life. iCubllc Positions.

So far as was consistent with his obligations to his family, he at various times accepted positions in public places which called for the exercise of great ability, integrity and fidelity It is a striking but just comment upon his eftietency and irreproachable character that practically all the positions he ever held were of a nature which put him into the closest and most confidential relations with his superiors and the proof that this confidence was well bestowed lies in the fact that he never in his long and useful career betrayed a confidence or trust or failed to measure up to the full requirements of his position. Successively, he acted as clerk in the general assembly at Indianapolis, deputy clerk of the Vigo Circuit Court, deputy in the office of the collector of internal revenue, to which position he was appointed' by the Hon. D. W. Henry, his brother-in-law, while revenue collector in the year 1897, and which position he held continuously until his death. So efficient was Mr. Thompson hi this position and so necessary was he to the proper administration of the office, that not only the successors of Judge Henry, of the same political faith, retained him, but the present democratic incumbent called upon him to continue in his place and to continue to give his service to the public.

Mr. Thompson was peculiarly a home man and was best loved, best known and best appreciated by the members of his own family. He cared little for society, except the companionship of his family and friends, and never sought or enjoyed club life. He was ail honored member, however, of the Sons of Veterans and of his fraternity, the Phi Delta Theta. His chief enjoyment and delight consisted in the scrupulous discharge of his duties in every position or employment in which he was engaged, the quiet and repose of the family circle and an occasional and brief social hour with some of his many friends. With his native and acquired ability, he might well have been a conspicuous success in any vocation or profession in which he might have engaged, but his reverence for and devotion to his parents and his family and his self-sacrificing spirit led him to fore.go all the plaudits which covie with success in public places or private^ pursuit, and to devote himself with a'll his talents and education to a service of his family and his country.

Quiet, patient, methodical, loyal and loving Harry Thompson gave all that he«was and all that he possessed to others and surrendered peacefully his life to his Maker, who gave it," and we shall no longer see or know him, the familiar figure which he has been on the streets of Terre Haute for the last half century. His family and his friends may well point with pride to the life which he lived and the memory which he leaves to us all Bighearted. generous and sympathetic, he had a place in his heart and his love for all of his fellow creatures. He never thought or spoke ill of anyone. Peace to his ashes.

MOTOR DELIVERY TO

(Mail Experts Expect Better and Quicker Service to Betult Throughout. Country

The rural patrons of the Terre Haute postofRce will have praotically all ot tjie advantages of city delivery for nine n[ionths out of each year, following the installation of motor rural delivery at the local offlde. This new service went into effect Monday and already the patrons are showing theirapprsciation, improving the .roads and doing all in their power to assist the carriers.

It has been estimated that- under favorable conditions the motor delivery can be used at least nine months out of each year, and when the weather makes the use of motors imposisible, each route will be divided into two emergency routes, each carrier taking one and his substitute the other, giving the people the same service that they were receiving before the installation of the new service.

Mail experts who planned the routes say that the motor servicexalso allows the department to cover much more territory a.nd the new system will give service to S64 families who, previously, had not had any rural delivery.

Better Servide Results.

With the revised service there will be nine motor routes and four horse routes in Vigo county, while under theg old 'system there were 29 horse routes. The old system cost the government $34,584 per year, while the revised system will cost $20,664 per year, making an annual saving in Vigo county alcne of $13i920. Of the horse routes there will be three out of Lewis and one out of Riley and of the motor routes there will be six out of Terre Haute, two out of West Terre Haute and one out of Farmersburg, which will come over into Vigo county and cover the southeast part.

Ppstmaster John J. Cleary is also of the opinion that thi installation of motor rural mail delivery will be the greatest possible jDOOst for good roads in this county, as every patron becomes interested as good roads booster so that he can get his mall as early as possible. In some instances where there have been bad spots in the roads the carriers have asked the farmers in the vicinity to fix them up and already reports have been coming in that the patrons are ready and eager to do this and that in many cases they havs already commenced to drag the roads and Put them in the best posslible shape.
