PEROXIDECREA
For those particular people "who desire a beautiful complexion and who want to keep the skin at its best all the time—keep it clear, flexible, smooth and give it the glow of health—there is nothing as good as A. D. S. Peroxide Cream, because it contains a small quantity of Hydrogen Peroxide, the great antiseptic healing and cleansing agent.
Its action upon a red, blotched, pimply, scaly, unsightly skin is very pronounced.
When used as a massage it has a tendency to eradicate wrinkles and to nourish the tissues. It is a mild bleach—perfectly harmless and will not grow hair.
This is one of the leading preparations made by the American Druggists Syndicate, which is composed of 12,000 responsible druggists, and it is but one of the famous A. D. S. Peroxide Family.
The others—equally as good, equally as beneficial and just as popular—are A. D. S. Peroxide Tooth Powder, -which "whitens, cleanses and preserves the teeth A. D. S. Peroxide Tooth Paste for the same purpose, put up in a different form A. D. S. Peroxide Soap, a very superior soap because it heals as well as cleanses A. D. S. Peroxide Foot Powder, for tired, aching, burning feet, and last, but by no means of least importance, is A. D. S. Peroxide of Hydrogen, the great disinfectant and germicide now being used in so many homes.
All of these A. D. S. preparations can be obtained at any A. IX S. drug store.

URGES FIT ON THE WILD ONION
'D. W. Douglas, State Entomologist
Issues Warning to Farmers
Against European Variety.
D. W. Douglas, state entomologist, is preparing to issue a warning to farmers against European wild onions, which he found recently in afield near Lawrence, in Marion county. The onion is a weed of the worst variety from the standpoint of damage to farm lands, according to Mr. Douglas, it being almost impossible to eradicate it when once it has been started. The wead has had a start in the fields of the east, according to a report from the United States department of agriculture and in some communities, especially in Maryland, farmers have been compelled to forego pasturing their cattle, since the weed not only makes the milk unfit for consumption, but taints the flesh of the animals, as well, rendering it unfit for butchering.
The weed is thought to have been imported by immigrants several years ago and to have spread gradually from the east. It propagates itself by means of seed which grow in a thick cluster at the top and by bulbs, which form about the main bulb of the parent plant. Ordinary cultivation as shown by experiments by United States department of agriculture, will not prevent the growth of the weed. 'The only way to stop it when it gains a start," said Mr. Douglas "is to abandon the field for a year or two for crop purposes and to fight the weed mercilessly with plows, harrows, fire and the like."
High Classed Baseball.
The game of baseball between Pendleton and Eden played at Eden last Sunday resulted in a victory for the latter town. At the close of the ten innings the score stood 1 to 0 in favor of Eden.
Eden will play the Kennard team at Eden next Sunday. Earl Willett, of route 4, delivered fifteen head of hogs to J. K. P. Martindale Monday which averaged a little more than 177 pounds. None of the hogs were seven months old— some of them were more than six months old and others were less than six months old. They brought him $16.55 each. Two other men delivered five hogs each and took home with them more than

Citizens Are Obeying the New City
Ordinance Before It Goes
Into Effect.
Contrary to the usual rule when an ordinance is passed by the city that requires a radical change in custom or an expense to the people, there appears to be general acquiescence in the ordinance passed at a recent meeting of the council that makes it an offense for a property owner to have certain kinds of shade trees about their premises after a certain date, and the way the trees are being slaughtered over town is a sight. Property owners seem to be as anxious to get rid of them as is the city, and the result is they are being made into firewood. There is not a street in town but has several poplar trees. The roots grow long and penetrate the sewers is the reason the city is compelled to order them destroyed.
TESTED AND PROVEN
There is a Heap of Solace in Being Able to Depend Upon a Well-Earned Reputation.
For months Greenfield readers have seen the constant expression of praise for Doan's Kidney Pills, and read about the good work they have done in this localiry. Not another rem'edy ever produced such convincing proof of merit.
John Kiger, 304 Swope Street, Greenfield, Ind., says: "My experience with Doan's Kidney Pills has been related in a testimonial I gave for publication three years ago, but it is always a pleasure for me to tell of the merits of this remedy for the benefit of other kidney sufferers. For years my back ached a great deal and it was difficult for me to attend to my work. Whenever I exerted myself or brought a strain on the muscles of my back, I suffered from sharp twinges and the trouble was generally worse if I caught cold. The passages of the kidney secretions were irregular and caused no end of annoyance. Hearing about Doan's Kidney Pills. I got a box at Quigley's Drug Store and I soon found them to be just I needed. They cured the backache and lameness and also corrected the kidney weakness. It required the contents of only six boxes of Doan's Kidney Pills to cure me, though my caee was of long standing. A number of persons who have read my statement have questioned me about my experience and at such times I have never failed to urge a trial of Doan's Kidney Pills."
For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, New York, sole agents for the United States. Remember the name—Doan's —and take no other.

vised To Be on Lookout for Evi
dence of Disease.
Dr. J. P. Simmonds, superintendent of the pathological laboratory of the State Board of health, has sounded a warning to all health officers of the State to be on the lookout for diphtheria epidemics when school begins. The laboratory has just certified the results of examination of cultures taken from the throats of five children in Hammond, and all were found to contain diphtheria germs. Five families in as many different parts of the city, were represented by the cultures.
During the last three months the laboratory has found evidence of diphtheria in fifty-six cultures examined, as against thirty-six cases for the corresponding period of last year.
According to Dr. Simmonds persons apparently well often carry about diphtheria germs in their throats, and other persons recovered from the disease have been kno\vn to carry the germs for months. WBen the schools resume, Dr. Simmonds said, with many children confined in one school room, epidemics are likely to occur, unless the health officers take prompt and decisive steps at the first appearance of suspected diphtheria.
