BATHERS ENJOY WATER THE COUNTY JAILS OF
to
A Los Angeles, Cal. paper of January 15th, sent to this office, contains the following item that will be of interest, as Greenfield sends several citizens there for a part of each winter: "With the mercury hovering near the 87 degree notch and with the sky dotted with fleecy clouds—not the kind productive of rain—100,000 persons took advantage of the most favorable opportunity of the winter yesterday to bask on the sun scorched sand of the local beeches and to participate in other recreation characteristic of the good old summer time. "Fifty thousand persons journeyed to Venice and Ocean Park and an equal number assembled at Long Beach, parading the great walks in summer attire and watching scores of others plunging about in the foaming breakers, apparently unmindful of the season of the year. And these found the surf none too cool. They pronounced it an ideal day for bathing. "While the minimum temperature in Los Angeles yesterday was 01 degrees, the thermometer bolted upward at noon, and shortly thereafter halted at the 87 degree mark."
Before a Doctor Can Be Summoned.
Parents of children should be prepared at all times for a spasm of croup. Keep in the house a remedy that will give instant relief and keep the child from choking until the arrival of the physician.
Get a 50-cent bottle of HYOMET today, and in case of an attack of croup, pour 20 drops into a kitchen bowl of boiling water. Hold the child's head over the bowl so that it can breathe the soothing, penetrating vapor that arises. In the meantime send for a physician.
This treatment has saved the lives of many children and is a precaution that all parents should promptly take.
HYOMEI is sold by Y. L. Early and druggists everywhere and is guaranteed for croup, catarrh, asthma and bronchitis. jan 13-t3

State Board of Charities Claims Jail System is a Failure as Far as Real Purpose is Concerned
The annual report of the Board of State Charities, which will be published soon, will make interesting reading for those interested in the work of the board. The report in part is as follows: "Every county jail in the state has been inspected during the year by a representative of the Board of State Charities. Such improvement as is to be reported is in the physical condition only. There has been no change whatever in the system and our system makes even the best jail a failure so far as its real purpose is concerned. Not until the state assumes control of the men and women convicted of violating its laws and the use of the jails is restricted to the detention of the accused can we hope for any substantial improvement. "The worst jails in the state are those located at Jeffersonville, Vernon, Greensburg and Princeton. New buildings or very extensive remodeling are needed also in Allen, Brown, Clinton, Jefferson, Madison, Tippecanoe and White counties. There are no jails in Newton, Owen and Pulaski counties, and that in Brown county has been condemned. The prisoners of these four counties are cared for elsewhere.
boon compiled as usual from the sheriffs' reports. They include the census for September 30, 1911, the total number of admissions for the twelve months ending with that date. "There wore 1,255 persons in I hose institutions on September 30, 1911—1,178 men and boys, and 77 women and girls. Compared with the same day last year, this is an increase of 180, and greater by 54 than the average for the four years immediately preceding. "In the distribution of this total of 1,255, we find naturally the greatest number in Marion county—140 in the jail and 154 in the workhouse. Vigo comes next with 85, and Lake and Yanderburg follow closely with 84 and 69 respectively. There were 63 in the Allen county jail, 38 in St. Joseph, 39 in Grant, 31 in Wayne, 30 in Knox, 27 in Madison, 26 in Floyd, 25 in Laporte, and 24 in Deleware. These thirteen counties are the only ones in the state in which the jail population on September 30th exceeded 20. In thirteen counties it was between 10 and 20 in 20 counties between 5 and 10 in 35 counties under 5, and the following 11 had no prisoners on the day mentioned: Benton, Ohio,
Perry, Harrison, Jasper, Martin, Pulaski, Ohio, Perry, Union, Warren and Whitley.
Foley's Iloney and Tar Compound is a reliable family medicine. Give it to your children, and take it yourself when you feel a cold coming on. It checks and cures coughs and colds and croup and prevents bronchitis and pneumonia. M.' C. Quigley.
Mt. Lebanon Revival.
Revival services at Mt. Lebanon church wil continue throughout the week. The attendance has been good when the weather has been fit for people to be out. Rev.

Everybody is invited to attend these meetings, especially those who want to see a revival. Pray for the meeting. John S. Clawson.

Thaddeus Jeffries.
Thaddeus Jeffries, for whom we have performed the last sad rites, was born December 16,1849. in Rush county, and died a sudden and unexpected death at his home south of Charlottesville, on January 5, ,1912. age 62 years and 20 days.
The deceased was the son of Macklin and Mary Jeffries, and was a member of a family of thirteen children, six of whom preceded him to the future home.
sisters are Manassa and William Jeffries, Mrs. Priscilla Lane, Mrs. Melinda Jeffries. Mrs. Martha Hilligoss and Mrs. Josephine C. Dieter, all of Hancock county.
Mr. Jeffries was a member of the Christian church at Charlottesville for many years, and was always a most devoted Christian, doing his full duty each day and endeavoring to honor his Savior in every act, word and thought. He was a member of the Charlottesville Lodge of Odd Fellows, and his absence will be felt keenly by his. lodge brothers as well as in the church, family, and a large circle of friends.
Mr. Jeffries had a kindly disposition, even-tempered and his advice was sought by friends who learned of his good judgment on all matters of interest, that came up. Although his death was sudden and not expected by anyone, his going away does not leave us without hope, for we are assured that those who die in the Lord are given eternal life in His Kingdom.

There is one man in the United States who has perhaps heard iiiore women's secrets thar any ether man or woman in the counts*y. These secrets are not secrets of guilt or shante, but the sccreis of suffering, end they have been confided to Dr. R. V. Pierce in the hope and expectation of advice and help. That few of these v.cirien have been disappointed in their expectations is proved bv Cie fact that ninety-eight per cent, of si! women treated by Dr. Picrce have been absolutely and altogether cured. Such a record would be remarkable if the cases treated were numbered by hundreds only. But when that record applies to the treatment of more than half-a- million women, in a practice of over 40 years, it is phenomenal, and entitles Dr. Fierce to the gratitude accorded him by women, as the first o£ specialists in the treatment of women's diseases.
Every sick woman may consult Dr. Pierce by letter, absolutely without charge. All replies are maiied, sealed in perfectly plain envelopes, without any printing or advertising whatever, upon them.
