The Fountain Head of Life Is The Stomach

A man who has a weak and impaired stomach and who does not properly digest his food will soon find that his blood has become weak and impoverished, and that his whole body is improperly and insufficiently nourished.

VOTERS REGISTER ONLY ONE TIME

Board of Registration Will Give Three Opportunities to Qualify, However—The New Statute.

Every voter in Greenfield and .Hancock county who takes an interest in elections, will find the following epitome of Indiana's registration law a reliable criterion to the main points concerning the necessary steps for officials and voters to take in order to qualify for the election. And political workers should clip this out for ready reference.

Orders establishing, changing, dividing or consolidating precincts must be made before or during the Marcfa term session of the Commissioners' court in 1912, and notice must be given of such changes before or immediately following this session.

The appointment or registration inspectors for precincts, with notice of appointment by the County Auditor, are to be made by the Commissioners during the April session.

Inspectors must qualify within ten days after receiving notice of their appointment by commission.

The Auditor is required under the law to fill all vacancies in the office of registration inspector.

At least ten days before the May session of the board of registration, the inspector thereof shall appoint the clerks nominated by the county chairmen.

Five days before the May session of the board of registration, the inspector thereof shall appoint the clerks nominated by the county chairmen.

May 9th," the one hundred and eightieth day preceding the election is the first opportunity for registration. and is known as the May session of the registration board.

September 6th, the sixtieth day preceding the election, is the second -opportunity for registration, and is known as the September session of the registration board.

October 6th, the twenty-ninth day preceding the election, is the third and last opportunity for registration, and is known as the October session of the registration board.

Only one registration is necessary. All applications for registration must be in person.

All persons entitled to vote must be registered in the precinct in which they reside.

Early registration should be encouraged. The time of the party workers during the last registration will be taken up with those who require assistance in reaching the places of registration.

No man is a legal voter who has not registered according to law.

ROOM ONLY HALL

To Witness Abe Martin WeddingAll of Brown County Present in Costumes of 50 Years Ago.

An Abe Martin Wedding does not occur every day in the week, and Melodeon Hall was crowded to its fullest capacity Friday night to witness the wedding of Miss Fawn Lippencut and Mr. Lafe Budd.

It became necessary to put out the "Standing Room Only" sign early in the evening, as the guests numbered over four hundred.

There were forty-six characters represented and they were well taken. Ed Robeson and Mrs. W. W. Webb represented Mr. and Mrs. Abe Martin Mrs. W. P. Johnson was the bride, Fawn Lippencut Lowell Smart, the groom, Lafe Budd, and W. P. Johnson was the parson who performed the solemn ceremony.

The members of the Rusty Hinge Quartet were Tipton Budd, Frank Bryant Lafe Budd, Lowell Smart Ex-Editor Cale Fluhart, Paul Ogg Ez Pash, Earl Gambrel. Jesse Shekell played the part of Constable Newt Plum.

The forty-six characters were all especially costumed and scores of garrets had evidently been despoiled of clothing stored there from a quarter to a half century ago. Every kind of costume from basque to hoop skirts were represented, and old tin-type photographs had evidently been consulted by the lady characters in the arrangement of their hair.

Following the wedding, a program that would have delighted the hearts of "old timers" was given. The Rusty Hinge Quartette gave a variety of numbers and different members of the cast rendered "Billy Boy," "The Old Oaken Bucket," "Old Black Joe/ "The Quilting Party," The "Church in^he Vale," "Sweet Evangeline," "Believe Me, With All Those Endearing Charms," etc., and Constable Newt Plum entertained with his fiddle and banjo.

Everybody was well pleased with the entertainment, and the management is to be congratulated on its success, financially and otherwise.

VICTIM OF APPENDICITIS.

Young Man Dies Following Operation a Week Ago—Body Was Taken to Sheridan.

William Retus Gregory, age 19 years, 6 months and 8 days, died at 4 o'clock Friday afternoon at the home of his brother-in-law and sister, Mr. and Mrs. Couden, on East North street.

The young man came here from Sheridan, Ind., where his father, Charles E. Gregory, lives, and was employed at the Couden Bakery. He was taken dangerously sick with appendicitis and was operated on a week ago. It was thought for a time that he would recover.

The body was sent to his father's home at Sheridan at 11:27 o'clock Saturday, by Undertaker Hiram Eshelman.

Champion Wood Sawyer. J. P. Bardonner, of near New PaU estine, who was in Greenfield on Wednesday and Thursday, perhaps saws more wood than any man who lives in this county. He has a circular saw, and sawTs wood in Hancock, Marion and Shelby counties. He has been in the business for eight years and usually runs his saw from 25 to 35 days each year. He saws from 40 to 50 cords per day and has sawed as much as 1,500 cords of wood in a single season. He says he likes the work, and in addition to that he makes some money out of the business. He says there is quite a great deal of wood still in the country.

DEATH OF YOUNG WIFE.

Lillian Patterson Passed Away Following An Operation For Appendicitis.

Lillian B. Patterson, age 23 years, wife of Omer Patterson, died at 5:30 o'clock Friday evening at the home of her father-in-law, at 103 Pratt street.'

An operation was performed a few days ago as the only hope of saving her life. The body will be taken to Muncie for the funeral and interment. Oak S. Morrison, undertaker.

Two suits for divorce were dismissed Monday, the first day of court. They were the cases of Jesse G. Crandall vs. Clara B. Crandall, and Rilla M. Rockey vs. William Rookey.

Obituary.

Nettie Pyles, daughter of Thomas and Martha J. Pyles, was born in Marion county, Indiana, November 21, 1877 and departed this life on January 30, 1912, near Carthage, Ind., aged 34 years", 2 months and 9 days.

Her childhood and girlhood years were spent in Hancock county, where she was married and lived most of her married life. On March 24, 1899, she was married to George Shultz. To this union was born one son, Joseph. Some three years ago she was attacked by that dreaded disease, tuberculosis, and amid all her suffering and constant premonitions of the approaching end, she was patient and cheerful, having a smile for everyone. She was received into the church on probation early in 1896, under the pastorate of the Rev. S. F. Harter was baptized May 23d of the same year, and went into the U. B. church, so the records state. Those most intimately acquainted with the latter part of her life speak encouragingly of her preparation to meet God. At times, although she was very weak from physical exhaustion, her soul seemed to triumph and exult. She gave expression to her victory by shouting praises unto the Lord. Among her last testimonies was "I am ready to go." After shaking hands with all present, she passed away like a babe going to sleep on its mother's breast. She leaves a husband and son, her mother, one brother, Homer, four sisters, Laura Weedy, Sarah Ann Pyles, Clara May Hutton and Pearl Dean, to mourn their loss. Two brothers and a sister, dying in infancy, preceded her to the better world her father died nearly sixten years ago. In the fadeless springtime on the

Heavenly shore,

Kindred spirits wait us, who have gone before There no flowers wither and no pleasures cloy, In that land of beauty, in that home of joy.

In the misty gloaming death awaits us all Silent is his coming, sure the Master's call. And the angel footsteps mark the upward way, Till the twilight merges into Heavenly day.

Trusting in the Savior, may we humbly wait, Till the holy angels ope the pearly gate. And the loving Father, from His gracious throne, Smiling, bids us welcome to our

Heavenly home.

by the gate they'll meet us, 'Neath the golden sky, Meet us at the portal—

Meet us by and by.

Young Man Loses Mind. Thomas Leary, son of T. B. Leary, of Mohawk, has been sent to Dr. Stern's sanitarium for treatment. During a revival at Mohawk it is said he became very much worked up in his mind and excited, and Thursday he was brought to this city where six men sat on a jury to determine his sanity, in the court of Joseph Garrett, a justice of the peace. Physicians and others testified and he was pronounced to be insane and will be treated. He is about twenty years old.

Building for the Future. We are glad to see and know of young men, either as individuals or in organizations, who are using the golden hours of youth in suitable endeavor to fit themselves for useful, honorable and Christian manhood: and for young men who spend their leisure and their evenings in profitable employments, study or company. We are deeply sorry for any young man who adopts the opposite course, because we know his future will be made less useful and happy by it, popular though it may be, and, alas, is, to be deplored extent. We would not by any means abridge any lawful enjoyments or recreations we are not advocating a hermit life, or low and selfish exclusiveness not at all. Let our young men be buoyant of spirit, active, joyous and sociable, but always under the wholesome restraint that high aims, noble purposes and moral and religious motives impose without oppressing and that are intelligently recognized and cheerfully accepted by them.

Combination With Star. Arrangements have been made by which the Indianapolis Star and The Daily Reporter can be supplied for $4.50, and the Star and Weekly Republican at $3.50.

Don't ever use the whip simply because you have it. It is a very poor driver who makes a blow the starting signal.
