The Incentive of the Stomach. I look forward to a time when man shall progress upon something worthier and higher than his stomach, when there will be a finer incentive to impel men to action than the incentive of today, which is the incentive of the stomach. I retain my belief in the nobility and excellence of the human. I believe that spiritual sweetness and unselfishness will conquer the gloss gluttony of today. And, last of all, my faith is i:n the working class. As some Frenchman has said, 'The stairway of time is ever echoing with the wooden shoe going up, the polished boot descending."—Jack London, in George Wharton James' article "Jack London," in National Magazine for January.

FOOD FOR IS HOW QUESTIONED

Marion and Other Indiana Homes Said To Be Deficient When Question of Proper Food

Has Been Considered

Charges to the effect that the food is bad and other allegations of a rather sensational character affecting the Soldiers' Home at Marion and other cities were filed on Monday in Washington with the Indiana delegation in Congress with the request that a congressional investigation be ordered at once.

As this is a time when investigations are strictly in fashion, Congress may decide to probe the Marion institution. A resolution calling for such an investigation may be offered soon by a Democratic member of the Indiana delegation, who has the matter under consideration.

Nothing is said in the charges filed today against Col. Steele, the commandant of the Home, but the conditions prevailing there are especially scored in the hospital and culinary department.

The author of the charges, who is a professional man of standing, says that he is willing "to appear before an investigating committee, and confirm the above charges and many others under oath." He asks, however, that until such time his name shall be withheld from publication.

Mrs. A. R. Tabor, of Crider, Mo., had been troubled with sick headache for about five years, when she began taking Chamberlain's Tablets. She has taken two bottles of them, and they have cured her. Sick headache is caused by a disordered stomach for which these tablets ar^ especially intended. Try them, get well and stay well. Sold by all dealers.

B. F. KEITH'S THEATER

Don, "The Talking Dog,1' the surprising linquistic canine that has created such a sensation in the east since his importation from Germany early this fall that he has played a number of "return" engagements in all of Mr. Keith's eastern houses, has finally been secured for Indianapolis, and will headline the bill at B. F. Keith's theater next week, beginning Monday matinee, Jan. 13th. The offering is entirely legitimate and Don actually possesses a human vocabulary of some dozen words which he speaks distinctly and clearly and which can be plainly heard in all parts of the house. Don will be introduced by Loney Haskell, the well known entertainer.

L. Bowmeister and Julia D'arpe, the celebrated Continental violin virtuoso and pianiste will offer a superior musical repertory of wide appeal. Owen McGiveney, the distinguished Irish actor, recently imported from the English stage for a tour of the Keith circuit, will give a baffling protean feature. Kaufman Brothers are tuneful originators who promise adi verting quarter hour. The Max Welson troupe are aerial acrobats who will give abundant "thrills" to Keithgoers. There will eight new "1913" Keith acts on the bill.

B. F. Keith's theater will be open Sunday afternoon and evening with programs offered by professional singers and instrumentalists, supplemented by displays of the latest imported motion views.

Lovell Leary, who has been spending several days of his holiday vacation with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Elam Leary, has returned to Valparaiso, where he is a student in the great Northern Indiana Normal College. He is taking a special course in wireless and regular telegraphy.

OBJECTS 10 PRIME Of FATHER'S WILL

John L. Milbourn Says He Believes Father Has Left a Will, Cutting Him Off Without Any of His Large Estate.

John L. Milbourn has filed objections to the probate of the will of his father, William Milbourn, whose death occurred Thursday evening, and his brother, Charles R. Milbourn, and sister, Katherine C. Myers, are made defendants.

The plaintiff says in his complaint that he has been informed and believes that his father, the late William Milbourn, has left a pretended will in which all of his large possessions of real estate and personal property is willed to the defendants, cutting this plaintiff off without any share in the estate. He cites as his objections to the probate of the will, several reasons, alleging that his father was of unsound mind at the time the will was executed and that he was unduly influenced in executing the will.

The plaintiff says that-he and the two defendants are the only heirs at law of the deceased, and that the property should be equally divided between them, after any advancements made to either have been adjusted.

DROPSY TREATED FREE

Dr. Franklin Miles, the Great Specialist, Will Send $3.75 Treatment Free—Many Cured

After Doctors Failed

At first no disease is apparently more harmless than dropsy a little swelling of the eyelids, hands, feet, ankles, or abdomen. Finally, there is great shortness of breath, smothering spells, sitting up to breathe, cough, faint spells, sometimes nausea and vomiting, even bursting of the limbs and a lingering and wretched death if the dropsy is not removed.

Dr. Miles has been known as a leading specialist in these disease* for 30 years. His liberal offer is certainly worthy of serious consideration. You may not have another opportunity.

The Grand Dropsy Treatment consists of four dropsy remedies in one, also Tonic Tablets, and PuraLaxa for removing the water. This treatment is specially prepared for each patient and is many times as successful as that of most physicians. It relieves usually the first day, and removes swelling in six days in most cases. Delay is dangerous. Dr. Miles' book contains many wonderful cures.

Send For Remarkable Cures inYour State. All afflicted readers may have tho new Dropsy Book, Examination Chart, Opinion, Advice, and a twopound Treatment FREE. Write atonce. Describe your case. Address Dr. Franklin Miles, Dept. 855 to 865, Main St., Elkhart, Ind.
