FIRST ENFORCEMENT OF “LAZY HUSBAND” ACT

Frankfort Man Will Pioneer On the State Penal Farm For a Term of Six Months. William R. Stape, the first man in Indiana to be conyictcd under the “lazy husband” act, must serve six months on the state penal farm at Putnamville. A suspended term imposed on Stape by Judge Combs, in the Clinton circuit court at Frankfore, Oct. 16, was placed in full effect by an order of the court Saturday evening, and Stape was ordered committed to the penal farm for that period of time. Stape was in Lafayette and Sheriff Miller was instructed to return the man pnd take him to the penal farm. The six months’ sentence was first suspended by Judge Combs when Stape promised to mend his ways, and provide for his wife. His promises were lightly given it seems, for Mrs. Stape complained that her husband had not only failed to support her as he promised, but also had departed for Lafayette. For this reason Judge Combs revoked the suspension.

NO MORE BACKACHE; NO MORE MISERY

If you suffer with pains in your back and sides or have any signs, of kiuney or bladder trouble such as rheumatic pains, puffy swellings under the eyes or in the feet and ankles, if you are nervous, tired and rundown, or bothered with urinary disorders, Solvax will quickly and surely relieve you of your misery. Solvax is the most potent remedy yet devised for ridding the system of uric acid and driving out all the poisonous impurities which cause such troubles. It neutralzes, dissolves and makes the kidneys sift out all the uric acid poisons left by the biood, and renders the kidneyi and urinary organs clean, vigorous and healthy.

B. F. Fendig, the popular druggist, says that no medicine ought to be paid for unless it aoes the user some good. He therefore sells Solvax under a positive guarantee to suickly relieve the worst cases ■ f kidney troubel or refund the money. Try Solvax today and if you cannot see and feel a decided change for the better just go to B. F. Fendig and tell nim you want your money back and he will return it without question. This is the strongest argument that can' be offered in behalf of any medicine.

Ben Cilfton, who a few years ago was the pastor of the Methodist church at Mt. Ayr, and will recall that he was arrested several months ago on charges of petit and grand larceny while pastor of uhe Methodist church at Kingman. His case on the charge of petit larceriy came to trial Tuesday and the case was dismissed after it was found that the affidavit charged that the tank had been stolen from Zackmeir w’hen as a matter of fact it belonged to O. E. Phillpot. Chas. E. McCabe, a Crawfordsville attorney, appeared for Clifton and made an impassioned plea for his client, relating his life from an ambitious poor boy through his efforts to secure an education and stated that he had studied until his mind became affected. He said that it was while studying law at Kingman that he had become overtaxed. The court room was filled with women and they indulged in shedding tears as the attorney eloquently told of the struggles of the young minister and related that his father, long an invalid, had died the night before at his home near Flora, after pledging his son to leave him and go to Covington to his trial. Rev. Clifton is charged also with stealing an automobile but the case has not been set for trial.
