PEACEFUL AND QUIET AS A LAMB
v!
Not a Single Cloudy Day Was Regis
tered Daring the "Balmy"
Month of March.
As calm and peaceful as a lamb the month of March, 1910, passed into history Thursday after having cracked the old adage to the effect that if it entered life a lamb it would go out like a lion, and smashed three other records which will doubtless stand for many years.
In respect to temperature the month of March was the warmest that has ever been recorded in this city or state so far as the official records, dating back to 1884, show. The maximum mean temperature for the month was 63.5 degrees, the nearest approach to this record being in the month of March, 1907, the maximum mean temperature at that time being 62 degrees. The hottest day during the past month was on the 24th, when the thermometer soared to the 85 de gree mark, causing sweltering humanity to mop their perspiring brows, rubber at the calendar and wonder if this were spring or the mid-summer season.
Porch chairs and benches were dusted off, carried down from the garret and brought into use weeks earlier than usual. Heavy clothing was discarded for the lightest weight possible white dresses were seen on the streets along with straw hats and low shoes and no one seemed to think their appearance this early in the year at all strange.
The greatest daily range in temperature last month was 45 degrees on the 24th. The lowest point reached by the mercury was 14 degrees on the 15th. The mean minimum temperature was 33.3 degrees while the mean temperature was 48.4 degrees. There were eight perfectly clear days and twenty-one partly clear and partly cloudy days. Two days were recorded as very hazy, but throughout the entire month there was not a day that was registered as cloudy, which is very unusual.
ACT QUICKLY
Delay Has Been Dangerous in Geenfield.
Do the right thing at theright ttme. Act quickly in times of danger. Backache is kidney danger. Doan's Kidney Pills act quickly. Cure all distressing, dangerous kidney ills.
Mrs. Vyra Seward, 322 Spring street, Greenfield, Ind., says: "There is no doubt in my mind that Doan's Kidney Pills saved my life. In the winter of 1906, I was taken sick and for one year and three months I was a helpless invalid. I cannot fully describe the misery I endured. My entire system was filled with uric acid and I had such severe rheumatic pains in my limbs that I could not stand. My bladder was inflamed, I grew thin and weak and had but little strength or energy. I doctored all the time but steadily grew worse and finally I went to a sanitarium. The doctors said that the only hope for me was an operation but I did not consent to this. I tried every remedy I heard of that might help me but to no avail. Finally my sister persuaded me to take Doan's Kidney Pills and a supply •was procured atQuigley'sDrug Store. The contents of the first box made a slight improvement and I was thus encouraged to continue taking them. My health steadily grew better and before long I was cured. I have taken Doan's Kidney Pills occasionally since then and they have always had the desired .effect.
For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, New York, sole agents for the United States.

Factory Near Ingalls.
John Lafollette has started up a fertilizer factory near Ingalls and is prepared to take care of dead animals for all persons who lose stock. A gentleman said today: 'While a factory of this kind is a thing no one likes close to him, still it is a great benefit to have such a plant near enough to take care of dead animals. They should be handled in the most approved way, and if they were the public would appreciate them. The carelessness with which the bodies of dead animals are hauled along the public highways has been one of the causes for oppo-

GREENFIELD REPUBLICAN, THURSDAY, APRIL 7, 1910
IOREHE GF COUNTY OPTION
Supreme Court Refuses to Re-open the
Decision That Law is
Valid.
"Denied, April 1, 1910." This simple entry was found on the brief filed by attorneys who sought a rehearing of the case involving the validity of the county local option law in the Supreme Court, when the papers in the case were sent from the judges' chambers to the office of the clerk in the State House yesterday. The law was upheld by a majority in the court several months ago, and the attorneys representing George McPherson, the Noblesville saloon keeper, who brought the case to the Supreme Court, filed a petition asking for a rehearing.
In the brief in support of a rehearing, alleged errors in the original opinion, upholding the law, were cited. It was set forth that the court erred in holding the subject of the act was properly stated in the title and that there was an error in declaring the whole law to be constitutional. The law firm of Shirtz & Fertig, of Noblesville and Ferdinand Winter, of this city, appeared as attorneys for McPherson.
In their brief the attorneys asked that on final judgment the statute be declared unconstitutional on the ground that its provisions suspended existing laws without the proper course of the Legislature. The validity of the act was defended by Attorney General Bingham and the firm of Hanly, McAdams & Artman, of which former Governor Hanly is a member.
TERRIBLE GROUP
One Who Knows Recommends a Rem
edy to Anxious Mothers.
My little boy, who is four years old, has suffered a lot with croup. On several occasions we thought he was gone.
After trying all the old time remedies and most of the new, I came home one night at midnight, and my wife said, "The boy has the croup again—suppose you get a bottle of Hyomei." "More junk," I said, "but we will circulate our money so they all will get some."
I hastened to an all night drug store, brought it home. In five minutes he was breathing easier. In fifteen minutes he was sound asleep. It broke the croup so quickly it scared me.
Anyone wishing to cure the croup of a child I hope will give Hyomei a trial.
Wishing you the best of success, which you surely deserve, I remain, Jos. E. Clark, 204 6th St. S. E., Washington, D. C. Oct. 7, 1909.
Hyomei is a remarkably effective remedy in case of croup and it should be in every home where there is a croupy child. Full instructions how to cure croup comes with each outfit.
Complete Hyomei outfit including inhaler costs $1.00 at druggists everywhere and at V. L. Early's. It is guaranteed to cure catarrh, coughs, colds and sore throat.

The Rev. Irelan, pastor of the M. P. church at Mt. Lebanon, Curry's Chapel and Morristown, was given a surprise at Morristown. The following is from the Sun of that place: |gi "Last Friday evening after pastor Irelan had finished his sermon and given the altar call, he asked the people to stand and requested Rev. Myer to pronounce the benediction. Rev. Myer said he had something to say and wished the audience to be seated. After they were all quietly seated Rev. Myer began his remarks by referring to how God worked. First he spoke concerning pastor Irelan's labor in remodeling the building in which we are worshipping. Then how faithful he has labored to build up the church spiritually, having labored when he was not able, not as much as to stop when he was sick and surely he aught to have rest, so the people he said, have decided to give him a rest and at this time Brother Walter Arnold came in from the chair room pushing a fine rocking chair. Then it was presented to the pastor requesting him to take a rest. The pastor was so overcome he wept before the audience. In reply he said he had no words to express his feelings, only thanked the people and God for their kindness to him?*
ROW TEACHERS' PAT IS FIXED
to Govern Township Trustees in
Employing Pedagogues.
The state board of accounts has prepared to send to all the trustees of the state a schedule of minimum wages to be paid teachers in the state under the minimum wage law. Examinations by the field examiners have disclosed that in some instances the trustees have not been paying wages in keeping with the provisions of the law. The schedule is to be retained by the trustees and made standard for the employment of teachers, and will also be used as a basis for the field examiners in future examinations of the township books.
In establishing the minimum wages due a teacher, the average grade made in obtaining a license is used as a basis. The kind of license which a teacher holds determines his or her classification. Thus, a twelve months' license places the holder in Class A, a a twenty-four months' license in Class B, a thirty-six months' license in Class C.
The state board of education also issues an "exemption" license, which enables the holder to teach for a period of eight years without taking additional examination, provided the teaching is done in consecutive years In determining the minimum wages due teachers in Class A, the average grade is multiplied by 2 in Class by 3, in Class by 3)4, in exemption licences by 3.
A PROCLAMATION.
Whereas by the Act of Congx-ess approved July 2, 1909, the Thirteenth Decennial Census of the United States is to be taken, beginning on the fifteenth day of April, nineteen hundred and ten and
Whereas a correct enumeration of the population every ten years is required by the Constitution of the United States for the purpose of determining the representation of the several States in the House of Representatives and
Whereas it is of the utmost importance to the interests of all the people of the United States that this census should be a complete and accurate report of the population and resources of the country:
Now, therefore, I, William Howard Taft, President of the United States of America, do hereby declare and make known that, under the act aforesaid, it is the duty of every person to answer all questions .on the. census schedules applying to him and the family to which he belongs, and to the farm occupied by him or his family, and that any adult refusing to do so is subject to penalty.
The sole purpose of the census is to secure general statistical information regarding the population and resources of the country, and replies are required from individuals only in order to permit the compilation of such general statistics. The census has nothing to do with taxation, with army or jury service, with the compulsion of school attendance, with the regulation of immigration, or with the enforcement of any national, state, or local law or ordinance, nor can any person be harmed in any way by furnishing the information required. There need be no fear that any disclosure will be made regarding any individual person or his affairs. For the due protection of the rights and interests of the persons furnishing information every employee of the Census Bureau is prohibited, under heavy penalty, from disclosing any information which may thus come to his knowledge.
I therefore earnestly urge upon all persons to answer promptly, completely, and accurately all inquiries addressed to them by the enumerators or other employees of the Census Bureau, and thereby to contribute their share toward making this great and necessary public undertaking a success. •*.
In Witness Whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed.
Done at the city of Washington this fifteenth day of Maroh, A. D. one thousand nine hundred and ten, and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and thirty-fourth.

Form Intimate Acquaintance With

CUBAN LAND
Greenfield Men Who Are Back From
Visit to the Beautiful Isle of
the Sea.
George H. Cooper, who is back from a visit to Havana, Cuba, is enthusiastic over the city and the Cuban country. His visit was in every way an enjoyable one and it will not be surprising to his friends to know of his repeating the trip with members of his family some ef these times.
Mr. Cooper speaks in the highest terms of the municipal management of Havana, and says it is the cleanest city he ever saw. A corps of men, in uniform, is constantly cleaning the streets and the result is the walks and streets are as clean as a floor. Commercial progress, too, is on every hand.
Mr. Cooper was accompanied on this trip by John F. Mitchell and they had the pleasure of a fifty milo automobile ride through the country about Havana. If the Greenfield men found conditions to praise in the city they discovered they found them even more so in the country in relation to the highways.
Many men take their automobiles and go from this country to Cuba to enjoy the beautiful country, fine climate and the splendid roads.
The Greenfield men not only found pleasure in Cuba, but their visits to the Southern cities of this country were enjoyable in every way.
