LIVER AND KIDNEY ILLS MUST GO I * * f If we expect to have health we must keep the liver active. An inactive Mr upsets the whole machinery that runs the body. The liver can be ggish without affecting the kidneys. When these two glands fail to re. Ive the poison from the body every part of the body suffers because blood becomes impure, the circulation sluggish, and the digestion hindid. This poison within the body causes 4 languid, tired or achy feeling. p nerves suffer and we are in a miserable rundown condition. There is use to let such conditions hang on and wreck the health when a good M and kidney remedy may be had. Glando Tonic is a remedy prepared adally to tone up the liver and kidneys and put them back to a healthy Edition. People who have suffered for years have found health by using Indo Tonic. If you are ail run down and can hardly drag give it a trial you will find it to be just what you need. I Mrs. Mary E. Seider, of Seymour, Mo., writes: “I owe toy good health plando Tonic. lam not bothered with my liver, kidneys heart or dizzy Ils since I have used Glando. Everybody says J look so well.

SEVERAL HUNDRED THOUSAND READY TO ADVANCE.

The concentration of AJmerican, British, French and Belgian troops, began by order of Marshal Foch preparatory to advancing further into Germany, will be completed Saturday when several hundred thousand allied soldiers will stand ready to march toward Berlin if the Germans do not act to sign the peace terms. Artillery and great trucks carrying various kinds of war material.are being moved across the Rhine at Cologne, Coblenz, Mayen£e and other bridge points within the occupied area. In the American area there was marked activity Thursday, particularly among, the first and second divisions, which are holding the bridgehead. . . . On the left bank of the Rhine the third and fourth divisions completed ■minor details for advancing if the word came to go ahead. The fourth division, which had beei\ ordered home several weeks ago and had turned in all of its equipment, is being re-equipped for possible action. ,

THE EVENING REPUBLICAN, RENSSELAER, INDIANA,

MAY BE TRUTH IN LEGEND

Investigation of “Enchanted Table" In New Mexico Seems to Bear Out Story Long Believed. An isolated butte rising out of a vnsl plain in -the vast Southwest— n flattopped hill 430 feet high -.and with sides so nearly vertical that for many centuries it was supposed to he hopelessly climb-proof, is one of the most Interesting of the natural wonders of this part of the United Stntos. Many attempts to climb the "Enchanted Table” or “Mesa Encantadn," as the first Spanish settlers called it. have been made, hut Indian superstition has attributed their failure largely to a supernatural Influence that balked the ascent. Hence the name “Enchanted.” According to the Indian Idgend, the mesa, which Is three miles northeast of the well-known Acoma pueblo. In New Mexico, was very anciently the site of a prehistoric village. A frightful storm carried away part of the rock and with it the rocky staircase which offered the only path of access to the summit. As a result, the people In the village were cut off front the plain below. They could not cllntb down; no help could reach them, and they starved to death. The only survivors were a few who by chance were absent from the mesa top at the time of the disaster From them, it Is explained, are sprung the present-day inhabitants of the pueblo of Acoma. But science, while disposed to be Incredulous of things unproved, Is at the same time Inclined to investigation. Hence an expedition which the government bureau of ethnology sent out to climb the Mesa Encantada. The party, after almost incredible efforts, arrived upon the top. What they expected to find was nothing. But, to their surprise, they discovered, on the summit of the mesa, plain and unmistakable evidences of aneient oecupancy. such as ruined walls, and what they saw there afforded a measurable confirmation of the Indian legend.

An outline of the efforts of the bureau of employment of the Pennsylvania department of labor and industry to find suitable industrial tasks In Pennsylvania for disabled soldiers and sailors is given in a bulletin Just Issued by the department. This bulletin, which may he obtained upon application to the department of labor and Industry, at Harrisburg, analyses] bv task and locality, the 50.000 employment opportunities offered by WOO employers in 00 counties, number of plants, kind* of firms and numbers of openings in each class of employment. One series of tabies shows at what tasks several hundreds of disabled men are now employed by the Philadelphia and Reading Railway company. Another chapter, on “Placement of Disabled Soldiers and Sailors In Employment” gives a general review of the placement subject, outlining conditions that may be expected aitd methods to be employed In locating each disabled soldier and sailor at a specified task in Pennsylvania plants. —Scientific American.

The Jersey herd of Ralph Ballou te now provided with Individual drinking bowls. Each stall is connected with the water system and has an automatic bowl about ten Inches in diameter and six Inches deep. When the cow sticks her nose in the bowl to drink she turns the water on. and as the bowl fills she raises her head and cuts toe water off. This method avoids having to fill the trough or breaking lea for the cows when It is cold. —Monroe County Appeal.

Tasks for Disabled Fighters.

Turned From Friend.

The revolving floor In one of the dancing cabarets mystified two young lieutehants just hack from France and evidently strangers iu New York. They were ushered to a table on the revolving floor. Shortly afterward one of the soldiers went to the telephone booth; emerging about ten minutes later, he looked around in dazed fashion, aad made several starts for the spot where he had apparently left his companion, but couldn't seem to find him. “Say, there,” he huskily remarked to the head waiter. “Lend me one of your boy scouts to 'help me find my chow table, will yon?” “What’s the trouble?” Inquired the headwnlter solicitously. “I left ra’ friend at a table over yonder by the post," answered the bewildered soldier, “and now he’s disappeared." As there were a number of men In uniform present the head waiter suggested that the friend be paged. “That’s the Idea," eagerly responded the soldier. “His name’s Kennedy.” And in a short time the messmate were re-united. Then the existence of the revolving floor was briefly explained to them.—New York Sun.

Yep, It Takes Practice.

For the forty-fifth time In 12 months she stood at the bridal altar and repeated the solemn words that linked her soul forever with that of the handsome man by her side. As the minister held up his hand signaling for the slow traffic to come forward qnd kiss the bride, the handsome man leaned over to press the first kiss on her ruby rouged lips. As he did so. his foot caught in her train and threw him off the track. “Whattell. ya big boob.” came an encouraging voice from a megaphone on the side lines as the purring of the camera ceased. “Now we’ll have to make that again. You’ve spoiled 500 feet of perfectly good film.”

SUPERSTITION AN OLD ONE

In All Ag« the Belief In "Cry** Gazing” Hu Bun Mere or Leu Strongly Held. Crystal suing, or “scrying," u writers on the subject term It, has been practiced pretty well over the world from ancient times to the present. In early times they used to scry In springs and bowls of water. In the British museum there la a orystal ball said to have been used by Dr. Dee, a wizard of the time of Queen Bess. Cagliestro, that sublime humbug of the eighteenth century, used to place a pall of water on the stage and request some child to come out of the audience and gaze Into it. The child would babble of castles, pageants and other marvelous pictures he could see in the clear liquid. The society for psychical research, certain of whose members, one would almost conclude, are ready to swallow whole superstition in any shape, has done some crystal gazing and at last accounts had glass balls for sale at its headquarters In London. The late Andrew Lang stated his belief that some people have the faculty “of seeing faces, places, persons in motion in n glass ball, in water, ink or any clear but scouts the notion that scrying can accomplish anything In the way of finding lost property or In foretelling the future, as has been claimed for it by crystal gazing enthusiasts. As a crystal ball is not absolutely necessary, by all accounts, and a glass pitcher of water will do just as well, almost anybody may make experiments In scrying. The liquid first turns black, it is claimed, then come the pictures. Some of us may feel that It would require a wait of at least a hundred years before anything could be seen.

HOW ROMANS GOT THE NEWS

Bulletin Board* Furnished Information to tho Citizens of the “Capital of tho World.” Caius Julius Caesar knew the value Of publicity. As, far back as when he was consul (60 B. C.) he ordered the publication of senate acts and discussions. These “Acta Senatns” were published on a whitened wooden board called “album,” the neuter of “albus,” which means white. • In imperial days, at least as early as 20 A. D., there was an official publisher, “Curator Actorum.” This news corresponded to what we get in our Congressional Record, .and contained —as our record once did ?Z-the interruptions and the applause. In 60 B, C., Caesar also ordered published “in albo” the private news of general interest, “Acta Diurna Populi Romani.” Thfc hwlWtaa toroxto t>l the modem newspapers had their precursors in these white tablets ordered to be displayed publicly by Caesar. In New York there are men who haunt the bulletin boards of the metropolitan dailies, Jot down the news displayed thereon, and later telegraph the items to the dallies In small cities which do not support so extensive a news service as that furnished by the United or the Associated Press. So in Rome, the writer of news letters or circulars copied the news published “in albo” and sent the most important items to his subscriber out of the city. Scandal was featured in “Acto Diurna,” and society news, in modem fashion, was furnished by families concerned.— From the Quill.

First Bottled Beer.

One of the funniest of accidental discoveries relates to bottled beer. In the reign of Queen Mary a certain dean, of fit Paul’s and master of Westminster school had to fly to toe con-, tlnent for his life. He was angling by the silvery Thames at the time the warning reached him. Some years later he returned not only to England. but to the very spot for the very same purpose, with rod and line Growing thirsty, he remembered thal he had left a bottle of beer In the hollow of a neighboring tree when he had suddenly taken flight some years before. The bottle was there, bul when he removed the cork It wenl off with such a bang as to make him think It had been changed by the fairies to a gun.

Time for Politeness.

There Is nothing chivalrous about the youDg man who steps aside to al low a woman to enter a car before him and then, in his haste, steps on her heels or on her dress. There It nothing very generous, or kindly in the favor of a business man who gives someone an Interview, at the same time making the Interviewer feel tool he Is encroaching on the time of a man who earns several dollars aryhour There Is no virtue in the hurried maudshake that is not accompanied by b welcome light In the eye; no affectiot In the kiss that is given from fores of habit or from custom. Every per soual touch that does not bear thi stamp of genuine courtesy Is a kit to an insult

The Ephemeral.

- Man loves the thing that doesn't last He lives on the ephemeral. His newspaper, with Its passing quips and rapidly fading scenarios, Is his daily Bible reading. The death of an aotor, who will be forgotten the week after his burial, moves a people profoundly. Thousands alt up all night to read a book that they “scrap” the next day. Man does not seek truth, but variety; he seeks sensation, not permanency. His health lies In his inconsistencies. For to be ephemeral it human; but to be eterupl to to be dead.

ARMY WORMS REPORTED IN WHITE COUNTY.

There has been a serious outbreak of army worms two miles east of Chalmers and it would be good policy for all farmers to look over their farms every day or so to see if there is any evidence of these worms, as this is an exceptionally favorable season for them and several cases have been reported from 'surrounding •counties. There is no reason for a farmer who finds these worms to become greatly alarmed if the worms are found before they are spread over too much territory. A deep furrow plowed around the infected area, -throwing the dirt toward them will prevent their spread and ‘they can tie killed by digging post holes in this furrow or dragging a chunk through it or if they are confined in a small area a poison bait made of bran, molasses, lemon juice and Paris green can be scattered over the ground. The important step, 'however, is to find them before they have spread for it is (possible that they could be working in a small grain field for a week before the effort would be noticed. The worm is from one-half inch to two inches long and looks a great deal like a common smooth caterpillar. They occur in very large numbers, as high as fifty to a square foot having been counted at Chalmers. They eat most any kind of grain, grass or wood and will usually be found traveling or upon the stem of the plant in the morning and evening and on the ground around the base of the plant through the day. Be sure to notify your neighbors if they are found on your place so that they can -protect their own crops and then roll up your sleeves and go after them until’ they are exterminated.,

THRIFT WEEK BEGINS SUNDAY, JUNE 22.

“I am planning to save!” This is the statement that the Indiana war savings committee is asking every householder in the state to make rtext week. State Director Robert E. Springsteen, making announcement of the plans for Thrift week, which begins next Sunday, said that the committee is planning to put 700,000 copies of the card (headed “I am planning to save” in Indiana homes during the week. This card saysi “It strikes me that 4.62 per cent, which is the war savings stamp interest rate, makes a good investment; that I ought to own a few shares in the United States of America; that I ought to Ward off the rainy day, or at least be prepared for it if it comes. So I plan to save.” Mr. Springsteen said the foregoing is the text of Indiana’s Thrift week endeavors. Every householder in the state will be asked to sign one of the cards and mail iifc to fcaa local pea-V----,master. The card will indicate that the signer wishes to try to buy Thrift stamps or War Savings stamps every week. It will- -be up to the postmasters -to see that the signers are provided with stamps, either through the mail carriers, banks, or other agencies. “We are taking up the promotion of thrift,” said Mr. Springsteen, “on the basis of education. We will try to use -persuasion rather than coercion. We will ask people to save for their own good, instead of making a drive to sell any specific quota of War Savings stamps. For this reason, we make the ‘I am planning to save’ appeal. We put it up to the reasoning ability as well as the patriotism of the citizens. “We desire especially to avoid the pledge idea. We do not ask Indiana people to pledge to buy any definite abaouqt, but we do ask them to try to save wherever and whenever they can. We have ’ninety-two county organizations working with us on Thrift week, and we expect thousands upon thousands of Hoosiers to turn in the ‘I am planning to save’ card. “The secretary of the treasury, Garter Glass, has announced that the government will rely heavily on the 26c, $5, SIOO and SI,OOO stamps in its future financing program. War bills are not yet all paid, and the reconstruction period must be amply financed. So much for the patriotic appeal. The best reason for buying War Savings stamps, however, is the fact that, while they pay four per cent compounded quarterly, which makes approximately four and sixtytwo hundredths per cent annually if the stamps are held to maturity, they increase in value from month to month at the rate of three per cent and they can be cashed on ten days notice, if the holder has to have the montey. We believe the Was Savings stamp is the best investment on the market, and we believe that Indiana people will take up some system of regular purchase of these stamps. The state committee has arranged distribution during Thrift week of the specimen budget system, tto be submitted (to the housewives to help them in saving systematically. Mrs. Julia C. Henderson, woman member of the committee, will work among Thrift clubs, women and housewives of the state, pointing out the advantages of the budget system. Plans have been arranged whereby every counity chairman ip Indmna Trill hold a meeting of hSs committee Friday night to talk over arrangements for Thrift week. The first thing on the program for the waeic is Thrift Sunday, June 22, when hundreds of ministers will preach sermons on the thrift movement.
