BIKE DEALfRS ENJOY OUTING ALONG RIVER

Close Stores for Day to Hold Annual Picnic—Many Out-of-Town Guests on Trip.

"Rain or shine we will have a good time," was the sentiment expressed by about 60 people who left the foot of Walnut street on the Reliance and the Reliable at 9 o'clock Wednesday morning, bound for the Hulman farm, south of the city. The party was composed of the bicycle dealers of the city, their employes and a number of traveling men from bicycle and tire manufacturers and the occasion was the annual outing of the Terre Haute bicycle dealers. Practically every local dealer took part and the shops were all closed.

Representatives of Goodrich, United States, Firestone and Kokomo tires were in the party and representatives ,©f several Indianapolis firms made the trip to this city to be guests of the local men.

Dutch lunch and "trimmings" was the feature of the day, for some of the boys who are known to have good appetites. Other events have been (planned for the more athletically inclined and all will have a busy time of ft every minute. The "eats" have been provided by Ed Tetzel and this fact is a guarantee that the menu will be one that will make the eyes of the boys pop out.

Ball Game, Too.

The afternoon attraction will be a ^ase ball game between the local men and the traveling men and it is said that several big league scouts will be on hand to look over the talent. Mr. Tetzel has been selected as umpire ahd special plans are being made for his safety. Horse shoe pitchers will also have a chance to show their ability.

The management of the affair said they were only figuring on having serious trouble from one source and that was to keep Ross Evans and Vern McMillan from singing solos. These two boys are the official songster's of the bicycle dealers' organization and are so proud of their ability that they vwant to demonstrate it at every possible opportunity.

An elaborate initiation had been planned for the members who are going on their first trip with the dealers but the exact nature work will be kept \a secret until it has been explained to the' victims and the explanation, will include a most enthusiastic demonstration.

One of the old timers to attend the event was Logan Hughes. Mr. Hughes was a former retailer in this oity and also has a record for long service as a traveling man, having sold National bicycles on the road for 2l years. Fred Kickler' aJso deserted the farm long enough to attend the annual outing and given a warm reception.

It easily can be imagined Mrs. Tanner will be one point of the "eternal triangle," with Roxane and Arthur to complete it. At least affairs seem to be shaping themselves that way. The result may depend upon how deep-rooted are Roxane's convictions and to what length she will go to keep her husband's affections. In any event, time—and this story—will tell.

I MEET A WOMAN ARTHUR ADMIRES. HAT night, after we had our dinner, Arthur's assistant, Mr.

Able to Close Hands After Ten Years— Feel Grateful to Var-ne-sis

Mr. John H. Cleaves of Harvard, Mass., a veteran of the civil war, well known in northeastern Massachusetts, and formerly owner of one of the largest peach farms in the state, says it is wrong not to tell the public how he found relief from rheumatism, which he suffered since the Civil war. Mr. Cleaves was discharged from the army on account of rheumatism and says he has taken treatment for it off and on ever since.

Although Mr. Cleaves lacks one year of being an octogenarian, he i as active as some men at forty and gives the credit to Var-ne-sis for removing the stiffness from his joints. He said: "Almost all my joints were sore and

Tanner, and his wife, called on us. Arthur had told me that

they were coming and he had asked me to be nice to Mr. Tanner, because he was the sort of man who was not very much at ease in any position. He said very usual things and he' knew very little of the world. In fact, he knew very little of anything except his work and he did that remarkably well. Arthur told me he had heard during his visits to the city before our marriage that Mrs. Tanner was a great deal of a butterfly and that she managed to harass her poor husband to the extent of making him terribly jealous. "I am vain enough to think that she will try her charms on me," laughed Arthur. "I don't suppose anything will transpire tonight, but I an prepared for emergencies." "Arthur," I replied, "I know you well enough to feel safe. I do not believe there is a woman on earth who could stir you even temporarily. I sometimes think your composition is similar to the stuff of which nails are made, or armor plate is fashioned." "You have never exerted your charms to the extent of really finding out, Roxane." "I have never wanted to encounter the armor plate 'material, perhaps."

He was about to retort when the door bell rang and, In a moment, Mr. and Mrs. Tanner were with us. Arthur whispered when he saw her: "Look at her, Roxane. She's all got up regardless of expense!"

I dug my elbow into hl$ ribs and held out my hand in greeting. Mr. Tanner introduced his wife.

Whatever impression of Mrs. Tanner I set down here, it will, perhaps, be looked upon as prejudiced. 'She was loud. Her beauty was striking and could not be ignored. She was young, soft and clingy. Her hair was yellow gold and her eyes were big and blue— the wonderful deep blue so little encountered. Simply to look at her face grave one the impression of unbounded innocence and spirituality. But her clothes! They were the very latest, the most up-to-date things I had ever seen on a woman. She was just enmeshed in the flimsiest of lace and her arms and shoulders were bare. She looked to me like an over-dressed doll.

As the evening wore on, Mrs. Tan-

I know quite a number that have taken Var-ne-sis with the same good results, and I want to make it known so that others may be helped."

Var-ne-sis is not a cure-all. It is a vegetable preparation that has been unusually successful in the treatment of rheumatism, particularly after ordinary remedies fail. It Is composed of vegetable ingredients, herbs, roots and barks. Is not a heart depressant and does not disturb the stomach. It is fast becoming known as the World's remedy for rheumatism.

THE CONFESSIONS OF ROXANE

BY PRANCES WALTER.

Her bctntf

ner proved herself to possess the most subtle personality I had ever encountered. She talked vivaciously, recalling the incidents of the days after her marriage and before, and giving advice to Arthur on the conduct of a husband who had Just reached that state. He must do this and that, in order that society might not consider him too young to accept.

When she had finished that line, she switched to music and literature. She admired the tremendous man built up by Nietzche, the code of personal freedom written about by Shaw, who was then a comparatively new author. She quoted from Schopenhauer and Sudermann with an accuracy that was surprising, I could see the steadily growing Interest in the eyes of my husband. He had not expected to find in the wife Of Mr. Tanner an unsual woman, and he was surprised. That the surprise was agreeable was quite evident.

As for Mr. Tanner, his conversation was negligible. He attempted two or three times to talk of the office about which I knew nothing and cared less. I tried to find something we might discuss with intelligence and understanding, but he simply could think of nothing and talk of nothing but the "shop," as he called it, and the probable duties of Arthur, who had a heavy task before him and had probably been able to do great things at headquarters, else he would not have beerf sent here, and so forth.

But Mr. Tanner's heart was not in his conversation. He looked at his wife as he talked to me. She had drawn her chair close to Arthur's, and they were in the midst of a discussion on some newly discovered psychological phenomenon. Perhaps I watched Arthur and Mrs. Tanner more than was polite. It was plain to see that Mr. Tanner worshiped her and was Jealous of her. Once he made a comment to

AUTO TURNS OVER AND TWO MEN ARE INJURED

Frank Dean Finned Under Car, Arm Fractured—P. W. Johcnnson Suffers Broken Ribs.

By Special Correspondent. BLOOMFIELD, Ind., July 12.—Frank Dean and P. W. Johonnson were seriously hurt yesterday when their car skidded on a sandy slope and overturned while driving north on Washington street. Mr. Johonnson was thrown from the auto and had several ribs broken and his face badly cut. He was unconscious for several hours. Mr. Dean was pinned under the machine and suffered a broken arm in addition to several cuts and bruises.

Whistle Frightens Horse. BLOOMFIELD, Ind., July 12.—Miss Avis Branstetter fc.nd her sister, Mrs. R6y Cain, were injured in a runaway. They had driven a young horse from Mrs. Cain's home in the country to visit their mother, Mrs. John Branstetter, and while returning home the brick plant whistle blew and frightened the horse, which ran into an open meadow, overturning. the buggy. The buggy was only slightly damaged.

fit into their discussion, but it was ignored. Mrs. Tanner continued to talk as if she had not heard him, and Arthur, I'm sure, really had not heard.

As for me, I had schooled myself to present a front of gayety, no matter what might be in my heart. I might be suffering ever so greatly, but I would not give an inkling of it to any, one, so I looked at Arthur and Mrs. Tanner and cried within and laughed at Jokes I was forced to drum up for the entertainment of Mr. Tanner. He did not laugh. I could almost feel his anguish. His jealously was so evident and his suffering so pronounced that he could hardly have made it more obvious even had he publicly proclaimed it.

Once he rose and said that he thought it time to go home, as he wanted to be at the office early in the morning. "Please wait a little while, de4r," objected Mrs. Tanner. It was the first time she had spoken to him that evening.

The only sign Arthur gave that he knew of my presence was when he looked at me and smiled during a lull in the discussion.

She finally rose to go. Arthur got her wrap and helped her on with it. I could hear her say in an undertone that she hoped he would call. She did not mention me nor did she ask me to call as she finally left.

Arthur stared after her for a moment and then he turned to me. "A fine up-to-date girl, Roxane. She has thoughts beyond just her clothes, and her husband. I like her!"

Thus ended the first day in our new home. It had brought me much happiness. When I lay down that night I wondered if I could carry out the warning of the spinster to hold my husband. I resolved to read Nietzche.

To Be Continued Tomorrow.

A Great Discovery

Swollen hands, ankles, feet, are due to a dropsical condition, often caused by disordered kidneys. Naturally when the kidneys are deranged the blood is filled with poisonous waste matter, which settles in the feet, ankles and wrists or under the eyes in bag-like formations.

As a remedy for those easily recognized symptoms of inflammation caused by uric acid—as scalding urine, backache and frequent urination, as well as sediment in the urine, or if uric acid in the blood has caused rheumatism, lumbago, sciatica, gout, it is simply wonderful how quickly "Anuric" acts the pains and stiffness rapidly disappear.

The very best possible way to take care of yourself is to take a glass dt. hot water before meals and "Anuric," the discovery of Dr. Pierce of Buffalo, N. T.

Step into any drug store and ask for a 50c package of "Anuric," which is many times more potent than lithia and eliminates uric acid as hot water melts sugar. A short trial will convine© -you.
