MAKING

OF WILLS

BECOMING LOSI ART?

Said to Be Growing Tendency Towards Leaving Worldly Goods To Be Divided According To the Law.

Is 'the making of wills becoming a lost art? Within the last few years, it is said, there has been a growing tendency on the part of persons of property to leave their worldly goods to be divided according to law. The condition is apparent in many places. It is not that there are fewer wills being made, but that more estates are being left to be settled by administrators or executors.

Many reasons for this are advanced by attorneys. The principal one is that there is a growing distrust in the wrill as an iron-clad document. The person making a will does not like to think th&t after he or she has passed away, the legal heirs will be squabbling over the estate, trying to prove that the testator was of unsound mind or was unduly influenced.

In too many instances, it is said, the jury is prone to disregard the actual law of the case and to change matters as the jurors would have done had they been making the will, in this manner the apparent personal interests of the contestants take precedence over the law.

There rye, of course, some cases where the maker of the will was of unsound mind or was unduly influenced, and all of these things have led to the general idea that a will is often a ticklish proposition and that the estate may be spent in contest.

Charles Dickens, in one of his greatest novels, "Bleak House," gives a notorious example of settling an estate as practiced in England at that time. It was in the case of Jarndyce against Jarndyce, and every reader of the great novelist will remember the story well. It was written as an attack on the English chancery courts of the period, and, of course, is not applicable to present day conditions, although it is a very interesting example of a contested estate.

Another reason is that the settling of an estate by the process of the law is always much more rapid than by will. Under the Indiana statute no estate can be settled under a year. Creditors are given that much time to file claims against the estate. The reason for that law is that as the heirs did not contract the debts they certainly cannot be held for the debts. Neither can debts be collected from a dead man. Therefore the'court appoints a person to stand in the stead of the dead man and pay his obligation within a year.

No estate can be settled out of court. That is, no estate can, outside the court process, be settled so debts cannot be collected from it. Occasionally the heirs agree and request the court that an estate be settled without the appointment of an administrator. Under such an arrangement the heirs get the property much more quickly, but at any time creditors may appear in court and have an administrator appointed, to collect debts, owed by the deceased.

A Poor Weak Woman

As she is termed, will endure bravely and patiently agonies which a strong man would give way under. The fact is women are more patient than they ought to be under such troubles.

Every woman ought to know that she may obtain the most experienced medical advice free of charge and in absolute confidence and privacy by writing to the World's Dispensary Medical Association, R. Y. Pierce, M. D., President, Buffalo, N. Y. Dr. Pierce has been chief consulting physician of the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, of Buffalo, N. Y., for many years and has had a wider practical experience in the treatment of women's diseases than any other physician in this country. His medicines are world-famous for their astonishing efficacy.

The most perfect remedy ever devised for weak and dell* cat® women is Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. IT MAKES WEAK WOMEN STRONG,

at 11 a. m., at the Nameless Creek church and interment at the Simmons cemetery. The funeral cortege will leave the Williams home at 10 o'clock.

Man is a Queer Animal. Men are queer. Wouldn't there be a roar when they went home to their meals if they had to climb up on a high stool in front of a table on which there wras no cloth, and eat meals in that fashion? Yet the majority of men, when they go to a restaurant will pick out the high stool with the feed board and no cloth on it in preference to a comfortable chair with a cloth covered table. A man will borrow a chew of tobacco and most of them will set their teeth into the plug where some other man has gnawed off a chew. Offer him a piece of pie at home from which his wife or one of the children has taken a bite, and he wrould "holler" his head off. At home he will not drink out of a glass from which one of the family has been drinking. Call him into the back stall of a livery barn, pull out a bottle and he will stick the neck of the bottle half way down his throat in order to get a swig, after half a dozen fellows have had the neck of the same bottle in their mouths. Truly man is a queer duck.

VAPOR TREATMENT

For Catarrh, Colds, Coughs, Throat, and Bronchitis.

Everybody knows that breathing HYOMEI a few times a day through the little hard rubber pocket inhaler will in a short time drive out catarrh.

Many people regularly use the vapor treatment at night in conjunction with the inhaler, claiming that it hastens, results.

This is the vapor treatment into a bowl three-quarters full of boiling water pour a scant teaspoonful of HYOMEI. cover head and bowl with towel and breathe for five minutes the soothing, healing, antiseptic HYOMEI vapor. Try it when using HYOMEI for any nose or throat ailment.

HYOMEI is guaranteed by Y. L. Early to put an end to catarrh, or money back. A bottle of HYOMEI costs 50 cents a complete outfit, which includes inhaler, $1.00. 7-17-28

CORONER IS ALSO A PEACE OFFICER

May Make Arrests and Keep Order —Must Act as Sheriff in Some Instances.

Most people think of the coroner simply as a doctor who has no other official duties than to hold inquests and in most cases coroners get through their terms without any additional duties devolving on them.

The coroner is a peace officer, however, and has power to make an arrest and keep order. In addition he must take the place of the sheriff in some instances. The coroner shall act as sheriff, according to law when the sheriff is incapacitated, in case of vacancy and until a successor has been appointed or elected and in cases where the sheriff is personally interested, or where the sheriff is to be arrested.

It is not often that a coroner is called upon to act in this capacity, but a case of this kind occurred recently in Rush county, according to the Jacksonian, when restraining orders were served on the commissioners and sheriff.

Charlottesville Burial Association. The Charlottesville Burial Association, which was organized recently, is now doing business. It has its $100 of benefit deposited in the bank and all of its expenses of organization paid and a small surplus in addition. It includes many of the best people of Charlottesville and Jackson township, and a number of members outside of those places. It has fourteen members in Greenfield.

There can be no question about the benefits of properly organized and conducted burial associations. They have proved "God-sends" to many poor people, to say nothing about the great benefit they prove to be to townships and counties. They prove a savings bank while poor people are well and at work, in which to provide for death.

SUNDAY SCHOOL PROGRESSING

At Eden—New Bible Class Organized For Work.

Eden Sunday school is still progressing nicely with an attendance last Sunday of ninety-six and collection of $2.56. Class No. 3, which consists of the middle-aged men of the Sunday school and taught by I. H. Day, was in the front ranks Sunday with both banners for collection and attendance floating over them. In addition to our Sunday school a Bible class was organized Sunday evening to meet each Sunday evening during the year. The following officers were elected and committees appointed: I. H. Day, teacher, and Professor Moore, assistant teacher Dr. J. E. Ferrell, president Thos. L. Huey, vicepreeident H. D. Reeves, secretary and Harry Umbenhower, treasurer. Devotional committee, Irvin Barnard, W. T. Baker, Daisy Day. Social committee, Cludie Huej, Ora Alford, Goldie Jarrett, Vera Alexander, Leora Beagle. Music committee, Anna Barnard, Ethel Barnard, D. H. Alford, Bertha Ferrell, Gertrude Reedy.

All men 21 years old and over and all ladies 18 years old and over are earnestly requested to join and make this enterprise a great success. The motto is "Onward and Upward." The chorister, Miss Anna Barnard, requests that all be present at choir practice on Wednesday evening of each week.

Eggs are Getting Lower. Eggs are getting lower in price, notwithstanding the continued cold weather. They are now retailing at 35 cents a dozen, or seven cents less than a week ago. They are much more plentiful now, probably due to the fact that since the snow has been on the ground so long, owners of chickens are compelled to feed the chickens warm food.
