SOME OLD TIME P0LIU POSTERS

Peculiar Manner in Which Old Docu

ments Were Discovered

Blackford County.

Ex-County Commissioner George W. Crider has a poster which was printed in 1856. It was printed with blanks for time and place. The poster with the blanks filled in with pencil reads as follows: "Democratic Speaker D. S. Gooding will address the people of Cleveland on Saturday, the 2nd day of October", 1856, at 7 o'clock p.m. Democrats are especially requested to attend, as matters of importance will be spoken of and transacted."

That bill was printed more than fifty-four years ago, as it bore the date of March 8th, 1856, but the most interesting feature and incident connected with it, is the manner in which the old bill has again come into notice after more than a half century of obscurity. "And thereby hangs a tale": Riley Smith, a brother of Vint A. Smith, of this city, and Mrs. George W. Crider, of rural route 3, who formerly lived in this county, but now has a position, with a glass factory at Mill Grove, Blackford county, Indiana, some time ago while in the packing room of the factory, where junk papers from Chicago were being used in packing the wares, happened to see the name Gooding and Cleveland on an old paper, and as the name and place were so familiar it attracted his attention. He picked it up and lo' and behold! it was about his former home and a man he had known from his infancy. With the old bill was also a brief of the evidence in the case of the State of Indiana vs. Dunn. Wm. R. Hough and David S. Gooding were attorneys for the defense. The papers were no doubt out of a bale of junk shipped from Greenfield and had been purchased by the Mill Grove glass factory at Chicago. They came from old papers sold from the court house in this city at some time or from the home of the late David S. Gooding after his death.

C. M. Curry was at Indianapolis today on business.

Mrs. W. R. McKown and son are spending a few-days with W. S. Oldham and wife, near Charlottesville.

The Proposed Auto-Traction Line

That May Be in Operation With

in Four Weeks.

The establishment of an auto ser-1 vice between the Indianapolis and Newcastle traction line at Maxwell, and the city of Greenfield is an enterprise worthy of support not only by the people of Greenfield, but also of the whole northern part of the

COunty.

an auto

be a railroad, still it

will provide in the way of travel just what a traction line would provide. There never was a time when it was so important for Greenfield business men to have a direct connection with the north part of the county as it is now. Here is an opportunity to get such a connection, and get it without the exdenditure of much money.

It will provide almost all the advantages of a traction line, and if an auto line, making hourly trips back and forth between Greenfield and the Newcastle traction line, is not a profitable enterprise, it were pure folly to talk of a traction line through the same section.

The auto line is feasible and accessible, and should receive the encouragement and support of the people of Greenfield and also of the territory which would be connected with Greenfield.

TX MEMORIAM.

India Ruby, daughter of Willianl and Elizabeth Shepherd, was born March 27th, 1899, and passed to the life beyond July 10th, 1910, aged 111 years, 3 months arid 13 days. She was only sick 3 days, of that dread disease, appendicitis. She was taken to a hospital in the hope of saving her life by having an operation performed, but never recovered consciousness, dying under the operation. As her father carried her in his arms and laid her on the operating table, she whispered, "I'm trusting in the Lord." Blessed childlike faith! The loving Savior has surely rewarded that faith in taking her into the fair celestial city, whose builder and maker is God, and there amid all the beauty and glory of that land of never fading flowers, she waits the coming of the loved ones left behind.

"God calls our loved ones, But we lose not wholly, What He hath given. They live on earth in thought and deed as truly,

As in His Heaven." So, though we shall miss her presence here, she will live always in our memory, because of her kind and loving disposition. The little feet were never too tired to run on any errand, and the little hands always ready to be helpful to friend or neighbor. She leaves father, mother, two sisters, three brothers, and a little orphan nephew and niece to miss her in the home, and who can now say:

"Another hand is beckoning us, Another call is given, And glows once more with angel steps The path which reaches heaven. Alone in our Father's will, One thought hath reconciled, That He whose love exceedeth ours, Hath taken home His child. Fold her, Oh Father! in thine arms, And let her ever be, A messenger of love between Our human hearts and Thee.

Card of Thanks.

We desire to extend our sincere thanks to our friends, neighbors and relatives who so kindly assisted us during the illness and death of our dear husband and father. We thank the minister, Rev. Joseph Williamson, of Greenfield, for his service, also the people who sang. We desire to thank Dr. Titus for his kindness and close attention to our dear one at this time, and also the undertaker, Mr. Condo, who was kind in his service.

E. Jane Conklin and Children.

Dysentery is a dangerous disease but it can be cured. Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy has been successfully used in nine epidemics of dysentery. It has never been known to fail. It is equally valuable for children and adults, and when reduced with water and sweetened, it is pleasant to take. Sold by all druggists.

John G. Carlisle Dead.

This is one of the best preparations made by the American Druggists Syndicate at its laboratory in New York, and it has proved to be the greatest tonic for the hair ever compounded by modern pharmacy.

It is guaranteed to contain nothing that is in any way injurious to the hair or scalp, but is simply a scientific preparation which, when faithfully applied, does away with tlandruff, cleanses and heals the scalp, strengthens the roots, stimulates the growth and adds beauty and lustre to dull, dry, lifeless hair which is fading in color and slowly dropping out.

A. D. S. Hair Reviver aims to prevent baldness by removing the disease germs which affect the roots and vitality of the hair. In short it revives. It acts as a nourishment as well as a germicide, and has a tendency to produce a thick head of beautiful hair, full of life and color, which greatly adds to the attractiveness of any man or "woman.

A. D. S. Hair Reviver is not an experiment—it is not an ordinary mixture of merely pleasant smelling ingredients—it is not a wash which removes the dirt and grease and stops there, but it is a medicinal remedy which protects the hair through its antiseptic action upon the very roots and scalp in which they grow, and it is sold to you by the 12,000 responsible druggists who compose the A. D. S., with the distinct understanding that if it disappoints you your money will be promptly refunded.

You can get A. D. S. Hair Reviver at any A. D. S. drug store.

Per Acre.

Andrew J. New in talking of Hancock county land conditions and prices, said today, that he remembered going out into Buck Creek township in that beautiful section where Scott Mints and Robert Hurley now live to look at a farm which was owned by the late Jacob Hauck. He said Mr. Hauck had offered him the land at eight and a third dollars per acre, but that after seeing the land, refused to buy it at the price. That was thirty-five years ago, and he told Mr. Hauck that he would not have the land if it were given to him. It it was a swamp covered with fine forest ti'ees. He said the land is now worth $150 per acre.
