SHIRLEY

The Wilkinson horse show was a success, the crowd being larger on Friday than on Thursday.

There was a crowd from Shirley at Greenfield last Friday to hear Fred Landis.

Rebecca Davisson, north of Shirley, died at her late residence Saturday at 11 o'clock a. m. She was .entering her 74th year. John Madison, of Kennard, is her only living brother. She leaves three daughters and two sons. Funeral service at Harlan church at 10 o'clock Monday, burial at Harlan cemetery.

Leslie T. Miller, who has been engaged at Beech Grove for the Shirley Radiator company, was in Shirley over Sunday. He is here to make arrangements to build a foundry as he is a foundry man and has wide experience. With the interest he always maintained for Shirley, he seems willing to place his interests in Shirley again and build another plant for the good of the town.

Marshall A. Fry, the street contractor, has his cement curbing almost completed. He is now nearly ready for the crushed stone, and as soon as he can find the grade required, he will get busy placing it. AVhen the main street is completed it will greatly improve the town.

Ben Starbuck, who recently removed from the John R. Kitterman farm to his Greensboro home, was at Shirley Saturday on business.

James F. Stutesman, of Peru, addressed the people of Shirley last Friday night from the Republican .standpoint. There was a crowd of about 200, all parties represented.

Mrs. L. A. Spangler has received =a welcome letter from Mrs. Mary E. Tillman, who at one time was •chief lady clerk in the Spangler store at Van Buren for six years. She now resides with her son in Chicago. Mrs. Tillman is very well known in Van Buren.

31 ONE BACK CATARRH REMEDY

Dosing the stomach won't kill catarrh germs. Neither will sprays, douches, snuffs or ointments.

The quickest way to kill germs is to breathe deep into the lungs the vaporized air of Booth's HYOMEI.

As this antiseptic air passes over the sore spots infested with Catarrh germs, it not only destroys them, but heals the inflamed membrane and stops the discharge of mucus.

Then hawking, spitting, snuffling, crusts in nose and foul breath will disappear, and vile, disgusting catarrh will be conquered.

A complete HYOMEI outfit, which includes a hard rubber inhaler, only costs $1.00. Extra bottles, if afterwards needed, 50c, and "V. L. Early is authorized to refund your money if dissatisfied. w-s-t3

"THE UNOFFICIAL SECRETARY"

A New Rook By Indiana Woman, Well Known in Greenfield. The Reporter has received from 'the A. C. McClurg Co., of Chicago, a copy of one of their new publications, "The Unofficial Secretary' by Mary Ridpath Mann. The author is well known in this city, being an Indiana woman and having spent the summer in Greenfield with relatives. She has already met with remarkable success in the lecture field, and if her new book is taken as an indication of her literary ability, she will doubtless receive like distinction as a writer along other lines. The book is well written and clever in every respect. It contains a vast fund of valuable information about South America, the country in which the scene is laid. The descriptions are vivid and artistically drawn. The love story is interesting, the style fascinating, and the author's insight into human life clearly manifested. Many sentences remain in the readers memory long after the book has 'been reluctantly closed.

Book lovers will not be disappointed in "The Unofficial Secretary," and will find between its attractive covers something quite worth while. The book has received favorable comment on all sides. The Book News Monthly for September, after reviewing the story, which is written in a series of letters, says: "The letters are irresistably charming, the result of a farseeing intuitive knowledge of human life only possible tova cultivated mind."

J. W. Copeland, of Dayton, Ohio, purchased a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy for his boy who had a cold, and before the bottle was all used the boy's cold was gone. Is that not better than to pay a five dollar doctor's bill? For sale by all dealers.

Mr. and Mrs. Dennis Dill, of Pendleton, attended the birthday dinner of Mrs. Emery Pratt on R. R. 10, Sunday.* w%, v?». j. "Use?

SHUBERT MURAT THEATER

Indianapolis will have its annual festival of grand opera in English at the Shubert Murat Theater, Indianapolis, opening Monday, October 4th. The Aborn English Grand Opera Company, whose engagement last season was a complete artistic success, comes again to present a still larger list of offerings, including eight operas in its eight performances, particulars of which will be announced in the Indianapolis daily papers.

This is the only opera company presenting a repertoire of classics in English in America, and will be the only organization of its kind to visit Indiana this season. It contains the best selection of American artists available, a large chorus and an orchestra of soloists who have won approval with the Aborn forces at the Boston opera house, the Brooklyn Academy of Music, and other famous temples of operatic art. Complete and elaborate productions are carried in four large baggage cars for the eight operas of their repertoire.

When this aggregation appeared here last season they captivated the music-loving public at once, playing capacity audiences during their engagement. The press and public alike were surprised at the uniform excellence of their offerings with an advance in the regular theater scale of prices. It is safe to say that no such performances of grand opera have ever before been given at prices ranging from 50 cents to $1.50, as the Aborn English Grand Opera Company gave last year, and we are promised even finer and more elaborate presentations of a larger and more attractive list of operas this season. Prompt attention will be given mail orders. d-w

ENGLISH'S OPERA HOUSE The two attractions which will divide the week at English's opera house, Indianapolis, during the week of October 14th, are so varying in character as to enable every theater-goer in Indianapolis and the surrounding towns to find at that house the kind of amusement he likes best.

The first half of the week, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, October 14-15-16, will be seen the famous Fritzi Scheff, who has been delighting the American public in her light operas for a number of years. Since she gave up grand opera for the lighter music, she has been one of the stars whose coming meant one of the big events of the season. Her brilliant voice and her winning personality have made for her thousands of friends throughout this country. Miss Scheff appears this year in a new opera, entitled "The Love Wager" and it is said to give her ample opportunity for the display of her vocal powers which means that all music lovers will wish to hear her again.

The last half of the week at English's opera house, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, October 17-18-19, the attraction will be Thomas Ross in "The Only Son.' Not in years, it is said, has Mr. Ross had a vehicle so well suited to his splendid acting ability as in this piece. The opening of the play finds him a young man whose whole life has been spent in having a good time and spending his father's hard-earned money. Repeated efforts on the part of his father have failed to arouse in him an interest in commercial affairs or a sense of duty in the matter of earning his own living. On the same day, in which his father gives him*up as a hopeless case, the girl with whom he is in love tells him that he connot hope to retain her respect or love so long as he does not make any serious effort toward becoming a man. This double blow brings the young man to his senses and the remainder of the play is devoted to the telling of how he sets outj to overcome his shortcomings and in the end gets things very much his own way. Both comedy and pathos go to make up this play and Mr. Ross is an actor who can portray both equally well.

Mrs. T. A. Town, 107 6th St., Watertown, S. D., writes: "My four children are subject to hard colds and I always use Foley's Honey and Tar Compound with splendid results. Some time ago I had a severe attack of la grippe, and the doctor prescribed Foley's Honey and Tar Compound, and it soon overcame the la grippe. I can always depend upon Foley's Honey and Tar Compound and am sure of good results." M. C. Quigley.

Land History Repeats Itself

(Private Car Excursion, October 15th.)

IN 1612 farm lands in America sold for beads or trinkets. IN 1712 for tobacco. IN 1812 for $1 or less an acre. IN 1912 as high as $500 to $1,000 per acre. From 1612 to 1912 every generation said: "Oh! How we would like the chance to get land our fathers had." Some who saw the opportunity in their own day bought land and laid the foundations for some of the world's greatest fortunes.

YOUR GRAND DAD HAD SOME excuse for neglecting land opportunities, because 75 or 100 years ago the "unearned increment" came slowly, and there was seemingly an endless amount of land to be had. In this generation, we find men kicking themselves (and they ought to) because they did not buy even ten years ago, and now be enjoying double and treble returns on the investment. THUNDER and LIGHTNING could not trumpet forth and emblazon more plainly to the thinking man the fact that when any agricultural land in this country is worth $500 to $1,000 per acre, then any other good farm land that can be bought for $10 to $35 per acre, is a great opportunity. A HUNDRED YEARS may have been required to double land values in the age when men fought for land with lance and sword but in these times, when peace reigns practically throughout the world, it has taken less than ten years, as is shown by the census statistics. Since the multitude went from Egypt to the promised land several thousand years ago, land history has been repeating itself. AS SURELY as the price of land in the U. S. has doubled in the last ten years, just so surely will $10 to $35 land in the Swirat Tract at least double in value in the next ten years. It ought to do far better. Much of this land is now selling at $17 per acre, and is ridiculously under-priced, and I believe will sell for $150 per acre in the year 1920. lou can see it right now producing staple crops of as much money value per acre as the average $150 land in Illinois. THERE'S A CLAIM ON YOU, Mr. Investor, Mr. Home Seeker, Mr. Farmer, Mr. Fruit Grower, in this tract, because it has things you want. It has things you need. Plants take their food, 1,000 parts of water to one of dry matter. A pound loaf of bread takes two tons of water from the time of planting the wheat. A ton of hay pumps 500 tons of water through the soil. You want pure water and plenty of it. This land has it. Good markets, short hauls, good transportation are things you want. This tract is worth more because it is only 170 miles from Chicago, and is nearer Grand Rapids, Milwaukee and Detroit. It has four railroads, several steamship lines, and no 40 acres more than five miles from a shipping point, and 30,000 people to buy its products in Ludington and Manistee, cities located on the edge of the tract. YOU WANT a healthy climate doctprs recommend ours. You want good schools, churches, roads and

telephones. We have them. Yotj. want good crops we have a-plenty. If you know soils you know the productivity of rich, warm, sandy loam. Now is the time to come and. see splendid crops of clover, rye, alfalfa, hay, beans, potatoes and all vegetables. I want doubters and skeptics—those who find it hard to believe that such low-priced land will produce such good crops—to come now and be convinced. IT IS EASY to read the past. It is an open book. Knowing the same things will happen over again, why do you not act? The terms on the land permit of your taking hold at once. They are as low as $10 to $50 down and $5 to $10 per month on 40 acres. While paying for the land, if you should die, the land will be deeded to your family free from any further payments. Five per cent, off for all cash, or annual payments, if preferred. There are a thousand 40-acre and many larger and smaller pieces from which you can choose. It is the largest and best selection in Michigan's Fruit Belt. WHAT are your future prospects? What are your plans? Ever feel the independence of owning a piece of land you could call your own, and make your home? I want you to send me your address so I can send you a booklet telling about this district and showing photographic views of the lands and things of special interest, also literature showing the development and improving going on, including electric power dams that are being built in the center of the tract at an expenditure of millions of dollars. 10-ACRE TRACTS, especially selected and laid out near towns.

Team Captured Game

The Gray Brothers' base ball club played the Fortville team once too often, it seems, as the latter team won back their lost honors in Sunday's game, the score being 7 to 4. The game was hard-fought and was witnessed by a large crowd. It was the fifth game between the two teams, the first four having been won by the local team.

The football game between the Ft. Benjamin Harrison team and the Greenfield team, which preceded the base ball game, was ar play for the local boys, who won by the score of 37 to 0.
