Beautiful

is prized by most people—men and women alike. It gives a good personal appearance in both business and social life, so that it is to be considered just as much as good clothes. Nobody should put up with so great a handicap as dandruff, falling hair or partial baldness when with the timely use of

REXALL HAIR TONIC

a magnificent growth is so easily produced. It is a scientific hair food. It invigorates arid gives new life to the roots of the hair. It supplies the necessary sustenance to thin, straggly hair and hair that has begun to fall and even for those whose hair is in apparently good condition it is a splendid dressing to use as it is neither sticky, gritty nor greasy—has a fragrant odor and is altogether a delightful hair dressing.

If ladies want to make their hair soft, fluffy and glossy, arid produce an abundance of natural hair, then feed it on Rexall "93" Hair Tonic.

An Old Hancock County Citizen. A reporter for this paper recently had an interview with Lan Roberts, of Maxwell, one of the oldest citizens of this county. Mr. Roberts was 84 years old last May, and came to this county with his parents when he was 12 years old. He has been one of our most active citizens,'and became one of the most prosperous farmers and stockmen. He shipped stock to Buffalo, Pittsburg, New York and Cincinnati. lie and his wife had eight children, seven daughters and one son. One daughter, Mrs. Jacob Wisehart, of near Fortville, is dead. She left five children. Others are Mrs. Charles Pope, with several children Mrs. Wood Moore, Mrs. Moyer, with four children Mrs. Arch Garrett, with seven children Mrs. Ora Cooper with six children, all living. Mrs. James Kingen has four children Mrs. John R. Kingen has eight, and Joseph, the son, has quite a family. Mr. Roberts lias eighty-four grand and great grand children. He suffered a stroke of paralysis four years ago, which impaired his faculties, but he is quite hearty and delights to discuss old times. His wife, one of the best women that ever lived, left him forever eleven years ago, after a long and faithful struggle by his side. She was a sister of John T. Henry, of near Maxwell. His father settled in a log house on the Fortville pike, which is still standing. He killed many deer and wild turkeys in that vicinity, and he has come trading to Greenfield with his father when there was but one store here, located where the Masonic temple now stands. Mr. Roberts is one of the county's true pioneers, who has watched the magical progress of Old Hancock from the wilderness, to one of the best counties in the state. It is interesting to hear him relate the incidents that have impressed themselves on his memory. He is honored by all who know him, and although in his dotage he lives in the past, he derives much pleasure in speaking of the friendships of those who have preceded him to the other shore.

CHARITIES AND CORRECTIONS

Report of Twenty-First Annual State Conference Held at Logansport.

(Continued)

"Sabbath jjiorning opened bright and clear, and favorable in getting out to this day's services. My room-mates and I made our way to the First M. E. Sunday school, situated on Twelfth and Broadway. They had had a joint rally of their schools the previous Sunday and over 3,000 were in the parade. They also made a canvas of the city as to Sunday Schools, and two hundred had expressed a preference for this school. So they were enjoying the fruits of their efforts. "Representatives of the State Board of Charities spoke in the different churches of the city. The attendance at each church was excellent. Dr. J. N. Hurty, secretary of the State Board of Health, at the Ninth Street Christian church, gave an address on Pub.lic Health. He told us what has been done in the state, what it is hoped can be done, and put it up to the individuals to assist. "In the First M. E. church Mary T. Wilson, of Indianapolis, gave the sermon. She has been in the charity work for thirty years, never missing one of these state conferences. Her text was from the beautiful painting on the church window—that of Jesus carrying a lamb in His arms—and others following at His side. She said: 'Which will we carry and which will walk?' thus making an exceedingly appropriate text for the charity work. 'Some by just a little discreet help, can sooft be on their feet and walking, instead of being carried.' She said: 'Keep the mothers and children together, instead of building more orphans homes. The poor houses or county homes (the latter name far preferable) are not as densely populated now as heretofore. 'That one blot has not been removed—that of the jail—that the moral atmosphere of it is so very bad. Let us all get to work at the jail business.' She said that organized charity should be in every county, giving an illustration showing the value and need of investigation before helping. It was that of a woman who was getting help right along from five churches when she might have helped herself. Another illustration was that of a Catholic woman who asked help of a church member and charily worker, who instead of helping her himself, s»:nt or tried to send her to the organization. But. she declined going, saying: 'I know it will not help me.' We must not Jorget to look after the spiritual side also. And finally, there are means of help for everyone who cannot walk. "Sunday, Oefobor lain, ar a p. m., in the Broadway Street opera house was held the mass meeting. The meeting was addressed by Thomas R. Marshall, governor of Indiana. The following are some of the things he said: 'It is appropriate that this meeting of the State Board of Charities and Corrections should he held on Sunday, for it is upon this day that the hearts of men turn to the great things that this great organization is doing in Indiana. The most beautiful thing about this State Board is that every law proposed by the board has been a good law, and every step taken has been a step in advance, so that it has never taken a backward step. Thirty years ago this meeting would not have been possible, but it is possible now, as the result of the toil and struggle and Christian self-sacrifice on the part of the members of the State Board, and much of the credit is due to Amos W. Butler, the State Secretary, who has worked unceasingly to bring about many changes that have resulted. It has reformed human character, brought about a higher plane of civilization, and has worked wonders in a field that has heretofore been sorely neglected.'* "Mr. Marshall claims to be an individualist that one must get right himself before attempting to make others right that without this principle there would be nothing doing in the line of progress in the state or nation that all of us must answer Cain's far-off cry— 'Am I my brother's keeper?' That we are in the final judgment in some way or another, responsible for our brother. We must look solely to the stale for aid. The church and societies must assist. Part of the business in the Master's command, 'Follow Me' is to feed the sheep.

And so the people must feed the hungry, clothe the naked and visit those in prison. The state should be the last resort for doing these things, and not the first. "The state moves through ma chinery, while the individuals and groups move the hand-shake and heart throbs. Notwithstanding that millions are appropriated to take ^G^of the poor

and helpless,

tHk

yet

we must not get away from the fact that if we are to follow Him, we must do it through the individual, and not through the machinery ofv the state. As to the improvement of tfie present over the past under the new system, in less than ten years the number of paupers have been reduced about onehalf. The cost lessened by twothirds, but the greatest result is in the 41,000 more self-respecting people. "Prof. Graham Taylor, president Chicago School of Philanthropy, and Warden of Chicago Commons, addressed the people at the Sunday evening sessions of the conference, at the Baptist church on' the subject, 'Church and Community Their Dependence upon Co-Opera-tion with Each Other.' Some of his thoughts were as follows: He declared the church to be the uniting unit of the charity organization, of the country, and the government from national divisions down to the township officers, and showed the necessity of expert work in order to bring about better social conditions, and to rid the country of poverty. He said that the church must aid in the work. That charity and religion go hand in hand that charity must give the advice as to how the change can be made, and the church should assist in getting the needed legislation. That several years ago he was in Germany, and saw 60,000 Socialists march. They were earnest, hard-working men and they demanded better conditions. "This great wave of Socialism, a movement which will divide the people into two classes—the laboring people and the Capitalists—will reach this country, and that soon, unless conditions are changed. This government must be conducted to the satisfaction of the working people, and the standard of living must be raised. The church organizations art/ now taking the place of what the church did in aiding the poverty-stricken arid defective people. A lot of religion has broken loose through the stained glass in windows of the churches. The church and community are not strangers, nor are they friends, but these two must be friends. "There has been great loss of life and suffering because of neglect on the part of the government to have proper laws to regulate our industries. And had we had these in the past five years, it is safe to say that there would not have been fifteen thousand employees of the Pennsylvania railroad killed in that period. We cannot care for the man at the altar and not care for him when he is one of the workers endangering himself for the sake of his daily bread. "As to former conditions existing in Pittsburgh: For twenty-four years that city had the highest death rate from typhoid fever of any city in the country. Deaths occurred from among the working class, as the wealthy could afford to buy spring water brought to the city. A filtering plant was installed, and the city water cleaned before it was sent to the people, thereafter the death rate was very much lower and it has been decreasing every year since. These social conditions must receive our attention. Religion gives us a vision of what the men, women and children need, and the government is the, generator to see that these conditions are changed. Now it is the duty of the charity organizations to see that the church and the government are connected. (To Be Continued) "MARTHA J. ELLIOTT, Delegate"

B. F. KEITH'S THEATER

George Iieban, the engaging legitimate actor, and his company, will be headlined at B. F. Keith's Indianapolis theater next week beginning Nov. 1th, in a highly elaborate short-drama entitled, "The Sign of the Rose," a beautifully written story dealing with kidnapping, the complexity of city life and racial misunderstanding. The piece is luxuriously staged.

Litlle Lord Roberts, the smallest but one of the "biggest" comedians on the stage, should prove another diverting feature. An octette of dainty maidens. The Yassar Girls, have a dashing musical offering and Madden and Fitzpatric-k will feature their successful short-com-edy, "The Turn of the Tide." The Stewart Sisters and Escorts are one of the newer vaudeville successes who offer a smart mixture of comedy and song.

Keith's theater will be open every Sunday afternoon and evening with entertainment offered by professional singers and instrumentalists, augmented by displays of the latest imported motion views. d-w

Indian Summer.

Nature has done her work of coloring in a thoroughly artistic manner this fall. Little by little she has added her tints by light frosts every night until now the woods are blazing with brilliant autumn coloring. Even the oak trees, which a heavy frost usually makes brown and ugly, are colored with red.

Flagged Train With Shirt Tearing his shirt from his back an Ohio man flagged a train and saved it from a wreck, but H. T. Alston, Raliegh, N. C., once prevented a wreck with Electric Bitterrs. "I was in a terrible plight when I began to use them," he writes, "my stomach, head, back and kidneys were all badly affected and my liver was in bad condition,, but four bottles of Electric Bitters made me feel like a new man." A trial will convince you of their merit for any stomach, liver or kidney trouble. Price 50 cents at M. C. Quigley's.

A celebrated scientist has made the interesting announcement that there are more microbes in the air at 9 clock in the morning and at 9 clock at night than during ai*y other periods of the day or night. He has also discovered that the percentage of microbes jn the atmosphere is less at 3 o'clock in the morning and 3 o'clock in the afternoon than at any other times. The explanation advanced for the partiality of the microbe for 9 o'clock a. m., and p. m., is that the microbe hour is controlled by the movements of people. From 5 to 9 in the morning they are going from their homes to their working places, and from 5 to 9 in the evening they are again journeying through the street either homeward bound or in the search for pleasure.—The Farmers' Guide.

Porto Rico's New Wonder. From far away Porto Rico come reports of a wonderful new discovery that is believed will vastly benefit the people. Ramon T. Marchan, of Barceloneta, writes "Dr. King's New Discovery is doing splendid work here. It cured me about five times of terrible coughs and colds, also my brother of a severe cold in his chest and more than twenty others, who used it on my advice. We hope this great medicine will yet be sold in every drug store ifc Porto Rico." For throat and lung troubles it has no equal. A trial will convince you of its merit. 50c and $1.00.

Missouri's Big Apple Crop. A Springfield item in a Missouri paper states that in the Ozark mountain regions of that state a bumper crop of apples has been raised this year. The Frisco railroad alone has hauled out of that country thus far this season 1,300 carloads of apples. The crop is so great that thousands of bushels of fine apples will be lost. Farmers are failing in their attempts to secure buyers, and fine apples are being offered on the trees at the extremely low price of 20 cents per bushel. In this market apples are selling from $1 to $2 per bushel.
