EMPTY ICE CREAM

NO ONE STRONGER THAN HIS STOMACH.

Barnard Gives "Prescription" For Doing Away With Sidewalk Decoration—Says They

Are Fly Breeders.

The celebrated Dr. Abernethy of Condon was firmly of the opinion that disorders of the stomach were the most prolific source of human ailments in general. A recent medical writer says: every feeling, emotion and affectson reports at the stomach (through the system of nerves) and the stomach is affected accordingly. It ic ihe vital center of the body He continues, so we may be said to live (through) the stomach." He goes on to show that the stomach is the vital center of the body. For weak stomachs and the consequent indigestion or dyspepsia, and the multitude of various diseases which result therefrom,

The ice cream tub and can, which is permitted to stand on the curb of the street or in alleys, attracting flies and unwashed since they wrere last in use, gets attention from H. A. Barnard, the pure food inspector of the state, and all will admit that it is about time.

The cans, when emptied, are placed in the tubs, without any effort to wash them and placed outdoors, where the rain and sun can rust them and the germ-breeding things may accumulate, sometimes to the number of twenty at a time, and they remain there for days until a shipment i£ made. What filth accumulates in these containers during that time can be surmised. It would discourage the person who likes ice cream to tell about it.

Mr. Barnard addressed a letter to the ice cream dealers in all parts of the state. It said that after emptying a can of cream that it should be thoroughly washed, the cover replaced and the can turned upside down in the tub, wilich must be cleaned as well. Then the tubs should be placed in a dry place and not allowed to accumulate.

The order sounds like a good one, coming at the start of the ice cream season. The failure to properly care for the ice cream cans has been noted and there has been no label assurance on any of them as to who used them last before they were shipped to Greenfield, or whether they have been sterilized after standing for a time in some back alley.

It was flagrant carelessness that caused the strict measure as to the shipment of oysters. It obliged the shipper and dealer to keep them under cover and properly dispose of the buckets. The health of the people counts for something, and slowiy the state is bringing about a better condition of things. There are few bad eggs for sale now7 butter has to reach a standard, and finally the consumer will get some idea that he is receiving wrhat he is paying for. This blame'is not all with the dealer, either.

There will likely be no further decoration of the sidewalks with ice cream tubs and there will be a prompt return of the "empties" from retailers everywhere.

medicine can be better suited as a curative agent than 0r. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery.

Several months ago I suffered from a .severe pain right under the breast-bone," "writes MRS. G. M. MUKKEN, of Corona, Calif. "Had suffered from it, off and on, for several years. I also suffered from heart-burn, did not know what was the matter with me. I tried several medicines but they did me no good. Finally, I was told it was my liver. I did not dare to eat as it made me worse. Whenever I swallowed anything it seemed that I would faint—it hurt so. I grew very thin and weak from not eating. Was told to take Dr. Piercers Golden Medical Discovery. took five bottles of it. and could feel myself getting belter from the first dose. I could eat a little without pain and grew strong fast. To-day I am strong and well and can do a big day's work with ease. Om eat everything and have put on flesh wonderfully. I will say to all sufferers write to Dr. Fierce. lie has my undying gratitude."

CROWS ARE DOPED BY WISE

Black Pests Which Have Been Stealing Eggs, Fall Victims to Agriculturist's Snare He

Supplies Gourd Eggs.

Crows which have been pilfering the hen nests on farms in many parts of Rush county, are up against a new proposition.

One wise farmer contrived apian whereby he has been rid of a portion of the black pests and it w'as done in a novel way. He secured a number of small gourds just the size of small eggs and as nearly like them as possible. In the nests that the crows visited the most frequently he placed these gourds and left them there. On returning to the nest in the evening he found that but few of the gourds were left. The next day while going down across a field close by, he found the gourds in a fence corner where the crows had carried them and had picked deep holes in the center of them before they found out their mistake. Since that time he has noticed that not nearly so many crows have been around his barnyard and a larger amount of eggs have been found than before.

Two holes had been drilled into the door of the safe, and a full kit of safe drilling tools, together with a quantity of explosives, fuses, etc., were found in a small grip left by the robbers. The traction company office is on South Eighth street, and a patrolman reports hourly there throughout the night.

Connersville News Special: Dan Kelley, of Laurel, Franklin county, tied his legs in a grain sack, bandaged his head and face in a red bandanna handkerchief and threw himself in a twenty-foot pond near Laurel. He was a bachelor, 42 years old, and had been in ill health for months. His body was found floating upright, with only the head swathed in the handkerchief, visible. A crowd of boys threw stones at the bundle for half an hour before they found it was a corpse's head. At last a well-aimed pebble whisked a corner of the cloth off of the bloodless face, and the young men made full speed to town and gave the alarm. Kelley had lived in Laurel all his life.

"Danny's Own Story"

By DON MARQUIS

Danny enters upon the scene nameless, a baby in a basket, abandoned before the door of Hank Walters the blacksmith. From that very minute, the fan bagins— real, delicious, irresistible fun.

Autobiographically, Danny says: "There wasen't nothin' perdicted of me, and done like it was perdicted. Ifjthey was devilment anywheres about that town they all says: 'Danny he done it.' And like as not I has. So I gets to be what you might call an outcast.

The boy runs away presently with a peripatetic "Doctor" whose mission ia to make known the wonderful powers of "Siwash Indian Sagrah and he plunges into the kaleidoscopic life of the patent-medicine fakir, small circus shows and so on, with a zest in life and a human philosophy in his side-splitting humor that are quite amazing.
