ACCOUNTS IN EXPRESS OFFICE BADLY KEPT

Two Auditors Work On Books For Several Days and Are Still Badly in the Dark. J. L. Wikoff, of Indianapolis, an auditor for the American Express Co., assisted by another inspector for the company, have been employed for several days in angfiort to determine what the trouWeis at the local office, which for several months has been in charge of Walter Gehr, a young man who came h/tre from Lima, Ohio, where he b«£a been an employe of the company/in the capacity of wagon driver. He was brought here to take the place of George A. Hart, who was promoted to the job at Crawfordsville. The inspectors have no information to give out at thi® time and after spending about a week on the books they are still unable to determine just what conditions are, although they have found that money for C. O. D. packages had not been for in the returns to the company. It is reported that something like SI,OOO is unaccounted for and Mr. Gehr is unable to account for it. Gehr's assistant in the job here has been John Harmon, who has driven the wagon for some time during the time Mr. Hart was in charge of the office. Both Gehr and Harmon seem to have devoted their time energetically to the care of the business here and nothing about the conduct of either would lead to any suspicion of intentional crookedness and this is not charged by the inspectors. Apparently a lack of ability on the part of Gehr to handle the bookkeeping and reports is responsible for the present condition. Something like two months ago Harmon, the wagon driver, lost or had stolen from him a purse containing about SIOO. The money belonged to the express company but the loss was not reported to the company and no record made of it on the books.

Mr. Gehr says that since that time Harmon has paid it all back and at this time does not owe the company any part of it. It is expected to make a change in the local manager and it is possible that Harrison Timmons, who handled the business so satisfactorily for some time, may take the job again, since he retired from the service of the company the first of the year he moved to Benton Harbor, Mich., where he has employment. He came here recently to testify as a witness for the state in the case against Comrade Fox and has since been visiting relatives in this city and in the southern part of the state. He is temporarily assisting at the express office. His reinstatement here would meet general satisfaction with the express office patrons. Later —C. N. Cravens, of Tipton, is here to take the place of Gehr as manager of the express company.

Evidently Knew Where Joe Kept His Bitters.

“Uncle” Joe Nesius, who lives at the west edge of town, was unable to take his morning nip last Monday, owing to the fact that during the night some one had visited his cellar and stolen his supply of whiskey, a full 10-gallon lteg. The culprit had also taken a lot of canned fruit belonging to Ed King, a neighbor, who had stored in the Nesius cellar.

SALTS IF BACKACHY AND KIDNEYS HURT

Stop Eating Meat For a While If Your Bladder is Troubling You. Are You Looking Old? When you wake up with backache and dull , misery in the kidney region it generally means you have been eating too much meat, says a wellknown authority. Meat forms uric acid which Qverworks the kidneys in their effort to filter it from the blood and they become sort of paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys get sluggish and clog you must relieve them, like you relieve your Rowels, removing all the body’s urinous waste, else you have backache, sick headache, dizzy spells, your stomach sours, tongue is coated, and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine is cloudy, full of sediment, channels often get sore, water scalds and you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night. Either consult a good, reliable physician at once or get from your pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts. Take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few dpys and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithii, and has been used for generations to clean and stimulate sluggist kidneys, also to neutralize acids in the urine so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder weakness. Jad Salts is a life saver for regular meat eaters. It is inexpensive, cannot injure and makes a delightful, effervescent lithia-water drink. Bad coal is the ruination of domestic bliss.

Monon is Finding Out How Much It Really Owns.

There should be correctly figured into the physical valuation of railroads the money that has been spent in assessments for streets, roads, bridge, ditches, sidewalks, etc., but until recently this was never done and in the government’s plan of arriving at the correct physical valuation of the railroad companies in order to determine what is a fair earning many things have been left out. Robert Lawrie, of Monticello, a civil engineer of ability, has for some time been working throughout Indiana in an effort to ascertain the amount of money the Monon railroad has paid out for such assessmnts. H is now w r orking in Jasper county. / Prsumably th railroads will claim the right in arriving at their physical valuation to put in the amounts spent for the improvements which are not actually a part of the company’s property but which should add to the value of the railroads just the same as they do to farms or city properties. A systematic invoicing of all properties of the railroads is being made and Walter English has for some time been employed in making an inventory of the mechanical properties.

A RENSSELAER CITIZEN COMES TO THE FRONT

Tells His Friends and Neighbors of His Experience. Every Rensselaer resident should read what a neighbor says. His testimony can be relied upon. Here are his own words: Jacob R. Wilcox, Dayton St., Rensselaer, says: “I had pains through my loins and was in misery day and night. I always felt tired and wornout and was annoyed by a distressing kidney weakness. Nothing relieved me until I began taking Doan’s Kidney Pills. They were of such great benefit that I consider them worthy of the highest endorsement. The cure has been permanent.” Price 50c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mr. Wilcox had. Co., Props., Buffalo, N. Y. B.
