HEALTH TALK NO. 1
(By Dr. J. H. Groff, Greenfield.) The Natural Laws governing health are all-important. In order to maintain health, it is absolutely necessary to know these laws and observe them. A body that is healthy wiTl stay healthy, if the laws of health are obeyed. A body that is not healthy, will usually get well if the violations of health's laws are stopped.' The best way to rectify impaired health then, is to give nature a chance. In other words, to fall in with nature's methods. The deep breathing of pure air is one of nature's methods of promoting health. Pure, out-of-door air should be deeply breathed by everyone for ten minutes every night and morning, in order to give the system the oxygen it needs. But, if owing to deranged health, the system will not take up enough oxygen, even by deep breathing, then Oxyolene Treatments will help.
Axyolene is composed mainly of pure ozone, and is one of the greatest natural agencies for curing all kinds of chronic disease known to medical science. It is administered by inhalation. It cures by oxidizing the blood, and usually succeeds when all other remedies fail.
Dr. Groff has recently installed in his office a Neel-Armstrong Oxyolene Apparatus, and is prepared to administer oxyolene treatment. Consultations free. Office 435 W,est Main street, Greenfield, Ind. d-w

THE PUBLIC SALE IS E
Thousands of Dollars' Worth of Property Changes Hands To the Advantage of Buyers and Sellers By Means of Public Sales.
The public sale season is at hand again, and thousands of dollars' worth of farm property of all kinds, feed and stock will change hands within the next few weeks in Hancock county.
By means of the public sales, property of all kinds is disposed of quickly, and to the mutual advantage of both the seller and buyer. With the seller no small articles are left to be thrown about, and finally lost, which means a loss of money, and either cash or bankable notes are left in his possession instead of his property, which he does not want. With the buyer the arrangement is also satisfactory, as he can often get tools that will do his work at very reasonable prices and also buy stock that he could not otherwise buy, and he can buy on such time that he is enabled to make many turns before time for payment. The public sale certainly brings the sellers and the buyers together quicker and more satisfactorily than any other plan, and they are becoming more popular each year. The proper and most efficient advertising of a sale has been solved by the newspapers, which print a complete list of the articles to be sold, at very reasonable prices, and put it before the people in a way that is sure to attract their attention. With bills put up in prominent places and sufficient newspaper advertising, public sales are, with very few exceptions, if any, successful.
The Reporter office is prepared

or at very reasonable rates, and as advertising mediums, the Daily Reporter and Weekly Republican are unsurpassed in the county. They put your list of property to sell before your neighbor and your neighbor's neighbor.
