311 VIOLENT DEATHS IN INDIANA IN OCTOBER
Report For Last Month Presents Startling Figures to Indianians. Indianapolis, Nov. I’4.—The statistics of the board of health gathered for the state of Indiana are sometimes quite startling in certain respects. The last bulletin of the boaid says: 311 Indiana citizens were killed , by one cause and another in October. 254 of these accidental deaths were males and 57 females; 92 committed suicide, 63 males and 24 females. Why so many suicides in Indiana? Surely it is a good state to live in and these suicides present a very serious question. There were 6 deaths from accidental poisoning, 9 by burns, 33 were accidentally drowned, 3 were killed by firearms, 33 by falls; 6 were killed by machines of various kinds; 35 by railroad accidents; 17 by streetcar accidents; 29 by automobile accidents; 3 by motorcycle accidents; 9 were killed by animals; 5 by lightning; in additi<n to the above there we.re9homicides. The remaining number of accidental deaths were by various causes unmentioned above.
NO COAL FAMINE; ROADS TO BLAME
Shortage in Fuel Attributed to Lack Of Cars; Managers Charged With Favoring Manufacturers. The present coal shortage and the threatening fuel famine are due to the lack of sufficient cars to transport the coal from the mines to the consumers and not to any decrease in the output of coal, according to findings of the interstate commerce commission. Commissioner C. C. McChord has requested all railroads to return to their owners as quickly as possible all foreign cars in their possession. Indications are that-within afew weeks the acute situation will have yielded to an effective solution. If present plans fail it is suggested that the interstate commerce commission may place an embargo on foreign trade in favor of domestic business and thus insure the transportation of foodstuffs and other necessities without weeks of delay. Railroad managers who have come in for a large share of the blame for the shortage of fuel are planning effective remedies. They cite that the car shortage is the worst experienced in the past ten years. In Chicago and other western cities investigations are in progress indicating that coal brokers have boosted prices beyond all reason. One Chicago concern is said to have agreed to supply all customers “in spite of the coal famine.” They are demanding from $2.50 to $8.40 for coal that formerly sold at from 80 cents to $1.25 a ton. ■ Another situation has come to hgnt indicating unfair dealings in supplying cars, munitions manufacturers in the east havng 100 per cent of cars required for three eight-hour shifts, while coal operators have only 50 per cent of cars requested for one eighthour shift.
The Handwriting On the Wall.
Information has come to me that one of the largest brewing companies in the world is remodeling half of its plant to produce a temperance drink. This drink will contain no alcohol and is designed for sale in prohibition territory. I am not at liberty to give the name of this brewer, but he is one of the wealthiest m the country. He has not hesitated in the past to send his agents in dry territory to violate the laws by taking orders for liquor. He has coined millions from the life blood of men, the tears of women and the suffering of children. There is no reason to think that he has had a change of heart. He still proposes to devote half of his establishment to the manufacture of intoxicants. He sees, however, that his markets are slipping away. His business acumen suggests that he take a new tack and manufacture a product that can be sold where to sell liquor is illegal. Probably he will try to evade the law by putting a little alcohol into the drink. I have no faith in men who manufacture a product to debauch their fellows, even when they be’fein to make something else. However, one thing is sure. This brewer has Seen the handwriting on the wall. He foresees an increase of the dry territory. If he sold more liquor under prohibition than under license he would not be preparing to manufacture a temperance drink.

PHILOSOPHY OF THE SIMPLE LIFE
The Experience of Men Ripe In Years Is the Best Guide Fpr All. Mt. Ayr Tritune. From the Monroeville Breeze of November 2nd, we clip a piece which was written by Mr. John Burroughs of that place, which has so much food for thought that we reproduce below the entire article, and use the heading above which was used for the piece in the “Breeze.” A cut of Mr. Burroughs accompanies the article, and we wish bhat we might have it to use because it shows the visage -of a man well along in years, THRtTJIRT who talks from experience. This is too much good advice from one so young as ourselves, and we want our readers to remember as they read it that it comes from a man ripe in years of experience. We know that Mr. Burroughs must be a good man, a good neighbor, and a good citizen. His article follows‘tielOw: “If you should askme what eounsel I would give to a young man starting in life—how I would attempt to set him on the road to happiness—it would run something like this: Be industrious. Be honest. Be serious and sincere; don’t slur your work. Deal fairly; like your neighbor; lend a helping hand. And don’t forget how to play. Play will keep you young. Lucky is he who gets his grades to market with the bloom on. “Reading the lesson of my life to myself, it seems to teach one thing: that one may have a happy and not altogether useless life oh cheap and easy terms. The essential things—the true values —are all simple and near at hand—home, friends, books, nature, a little leisure, a little money, and, above all things, congenial work —something you can put your heart in. But uncongenial work, even drudgery, is better than idleness and indifference. — A heritage of—inestimable value is wholesome instincts, especially an instinct for the truth. “I have never bothered myself with any regularly thought out philosopny of life. I have simply loved and most of the things and the peoplejibout me. Things become tools when 'yOTr'teaTTT to grasp the right handle, and people will lend a hand if you are naturally disposed to lend a hand in return. Sympathy begets sympathy, love begets love, and in the end if a man does not magnify his’ duties he is pretty sure to get all that is coming to'ihim-in life. I have never seriously thought about my dues, or if I had and dues, I have simply looked about me for things worthy of my love and interest. I seem to have been getting my dues and more every day of my life. With health and friends and nature, with the sweet air to breathe and the husky old earth to walk on, or till, or study; with the press of one’s foot to the ground, as Whitman says, springing a hundred affections, how could one fail to get his dues? Invest yourself, in the people and things about you; deal honestly with yourself and your neighbor; think not of rewards; think how well you can do your work, how much you can grt in the way of satisfaction out of each day. Young men often write me that they want to be nature writers like myself, and ask me how to begin, what books to read, and so on. I tell them to begin where they are, at their own doorstep, and to read their own hearts to see if there is any real nature love in them. Can they serve the trio, the True, the Beautiful, disinterestedly, or are they after fame or money ? . Mr. and Mrs. F. D. Burchard went to Knox this afternoon to attend the funeral tomorrow of Mrs. Burchard’s uncle, John Jones. Mr. Jones died yesterday of pneumonia. The funeral will take place at Knox at 10 o’clock tomorrdw and burial will take place at Francesville, his boyhood home. Mr. Jones was the son of W. R. Jones, of Francesville, and the brother of Gilf and Charlie Jones, of Redkey. He went to Knox a little over twenty years ago and engaged in the furniture and undertaking business and was one of the prominent merchants of that city. Previous to going to Knox he was elected celrk of Pulaski county, being elected on the republican ticket at a time when that county was strongly democratic. He leaves a wife and two children, a boy and a girl.
THAT KNIFE-LIKE PAIN
Is Only One of Nature’s Warnings of Weak or Disordered Kidneys. Have you a lame back, aching day and night? Do you feel sharp pains after stooping ?Are thekidneys sore? Is their action irregular? Use Doan’s Kidney Pills—the medicine recommended by so many Rensselaer people. Read this case: Mrs. R. W. Burris, Rensselaer, says: “I was suffering from a steady ache in my back and could hardly move without having knife-like pains shoot through my kidneys. When I went to stoop over to tie my shoes or get up but of a chair, that pain caught me. My head ached and I felt nervous and tired out. I was often so dizfzy that I could hardly stand. My kidneys acted too often and caused me much distress. I used several boxes of, Doan’s Kidney Pills and they put me in good shape.” Price 50c, at all dealers. Dont simply ask for k kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mrs. Burris had; Foster-Milburn Co., Props., Buffalo, N. Y. - |

FARMER COULD SET NEW RECORD
AbletoDo More Work Than Ever Before Since Taking Tanlac. Fort Wayne, Ind., —During one of the many discussions held in this city each day regarding Tanlac, Fred Blum, a farmer, who lives on rural route No. 15, said: “I had kidney trouble for fifteen years and muscular rheumatism also bothered me. Pains in the small of my back sometimes were so severe I ouldn’t rise. The rheumatic pains also were severe, especially in my knees and elbows. y “I believe I could do. more work today than I ever did before in my life because since taking Tanlac ,I’m not bothered with troubles. The paixis.in my back have vanished entirely and the rheumatic pains are about gone. The results I have gained really are wonderful.” Tanlac, the Master Medicihe, is especially beneficial for stomach, liver and kidney trouble, catarrhal comrheumatism, _nervousness, sleeplessness and the like and is a fine blood purifier and a body builder. Tanlac is now sold exclusively in Rensselaer at Larsh & Hopkins’ drug store.
