The Stomach Is the Target'
At the Pennsylvania Crossing, Near Townsend Factory, Saturday Evening—No One Hurt.
Aim to make that strong—and digestion good—and you will keep well! No chain ia stronger than its weakest link. No man ia stronger than his stomach. With stomach disordered a train of diseases follow.
man, L. E. Dixon, and the automobile driven by Harvey Barrett, ran into each other at the crossing east of town. Mr. Barrett was returning from his farm, and when he approached the grade leading down to the crossing he looked both ways but saw nothing. As he can down the grade and was just a few feet from the track, the handcar, bearing L. E. Dixon and his men was coming across the cattle guards.
Mr. Barrett turned his machine toward the ditch, and subconsciously shut off his power, striking the handcar a glancing blow. The handcar was knocked from the track and the men thrown off. The auto was banged up considerably, the front wheels and steering gear being put out of commission.
No one was seriously hurt, Joe Jackson being bruised and cut slightly, and Mr. Barrett cutting his hands by flying glass from the broken wind-shield. Three wheels were broken off of the handcar and the men were compelled to secure another car. The automobile was hitched to a dray and pulled in for repairs. Mr. Barrett says "You couldn't knock a Ford to pieces if you tried."

It is indeed fortunate that the accident was no more serious than it was. The sunken grade crossing at that point is very dangerous, it being impossible to see either direction after one starts down the grade toward the tracks. Neither party blames the other in the least for the accident, but that would not have helped much if some one had been seriously hurt.

THIRD OF SERIES OF
Held at M. P. Church Last Night— Rev. J. B. Williamson Preached the Sermon—House Full.
The union services at the Meth-
were really enjoyed by all present. The coolness of the atmosphere left nothing wanting that could add to the comfort of the people, while a splendid sermon held their undivided attention throughout the services. After the opening prayer by Rev. C. H. Smith, and the Scripture reading by Mrs. Mary Miars Harrold, the choir sang an anthem entitled, "Lord of the Nations."
Rev. J. B. Williamson, who delivered the message last night, had for his subject, "The Hero of the Ages," taking his thought directly from the words, "Thanks be to God, Who has given us the victory, through our Lord, Jesus Christ." He said that the heroes of the world had been men who had done much for their people, but more especially that had helped by means of a struggle against odds. He asked of the Jews for their hero, and they brought back the answer of Moses of the Romans, who answered, Caesar of the Greeks, who presented the name of Leonidas of Germany, who gave the world the Iron Duke, Bismarck France, who chose as her hero, Napoleoti England, Welliugton Scotland, Wallace and Bruce America, Washington and Lincoln.
But when the question of the universal hero was presented, it was decided that he must stand head and shoulders above all others in every quality of character, in order that there might be no question of his supremacy. When the name of Christ was presented, an objection was raised because of His lowly birth. Born in a stable and cradled in a manger, it-looked as if He were a plebian, while a true hero should be nobly born. But the objection was overruled', because through His mother he had the royal blood of kings in His veins.
Then in well chosen, forcible words, Rev. Williamson showed that four elements made Him supremely heroic. First, because He started out to conquer the world single-handed no roll of drums heralded His coming His followers wore no common uniform. Mr. Lincoln issued a call and thousands of the best blood of our Nation answered at once Christ went to each individual and issued a personal call. Alone, He started out to conquer the world of sin, a thing never dreamed of before. From this, many pointed lessons were driven home for the present generation by Rev. Williamson. Second, He fought against all the forces of a mighty state and church third, He never flinched, never faltered, never failed fourth He was a hero by His suffering. "Modern heroes are eulogized during their lives ancient heroes, never. No roll of stirring drums, no stately procession, no funeral eulogies were given to Christ even in His death buried in a borrowed tomb, His body was borne along accompanied by the heart-cries of the anguished. Thus it was that Ideal Heroism found its glory not on a throne, but on a cross giving the world that great lesson that a hero lives not in the wounds he inflicts, but by suffering silently, bearing patiently, loving mightily^ The world gave Him no crown, but a crown of thorns no homage but a sneer yet today, millions would count it glory to die for Him—the Universal Hero."
The benediction was pronounced by Rev. M. S. Decker. The next of the series will be held at the Christian church, Rev. C. J. Kerlin, pastor of the M. P. church, to deliver the message.

The Thrift Zone
(Private Car Excursion, Tuesday, August 5th)
WITHIN A RADIUS'of 400 miles of Chicago, there are three-fifths (23 billion of the 40 billion dollars) of the Nation's Farm Property. The six states within this radius comprise the Thrift Zone of America's farming, having the smallest percentage of farmers earning less than $1,000 per year. THE LANDS OF THE SWIGART TRACT are in the inner circle of the Thrift Zone, being only 170 miles from the heart of it. They have outstripped most lands in th3 percentage of increase in value in the past 10 years, and will again double and triple in value before the next census.
MEN WHO OBTAIN the land now will get first hold on the opportunities in this district. There are no lands so good for so little money so near Chicago. To buy them is not speculation. It is an investment in which nothing can stop the advance in value. The demand for land here at the population center of tha Nation guarantees rapid acquirement by agriculturists of every acre. Every acre of arable ground must be tilled to help provision our increasing millions. The time seems approaching when only intensive cultivation will suffice to feed the people. You will receive the increase in value incident to the building up and development in the new district on all sides of your land. NOWHERE does land yield a wider diversity of crops than in the Swigart Tract. Crops of potatoes on 5 to 8 acre patches have often in one season paid for the cost of 40 acres. The story of the Swigart Tract is one of development. Come and share in this upbuilding where you will find welcoming hands and pleasant living conditions, where the soil is good and nature speeds you on the road to competency and comfort. WITHIN GRASP of most any man earning wages is this opportunity in Michigan. Practically no chance is left in other North Central States unless you have a barrel of money but in the Swigart Tract you can buy land for $10 to $35 per acre, and an average of $17 per acre and the terms are as low as $10 to $50 down and $5 to $10 per^ month on 40 acres. Think of the market leverage of these lands located within such a short distance of Chicago by both lake and rail.
Send at once for' literature. Also get a large map, and all particu lars about the excursions. Post up and come with us. Address Geo. W. Swigart, Owner, R1250 First National Bank Building, Chicago, or his agent,
During that week a total of 215 fires occurred with a loss of $114,347. Of this amount $81,481 was on buildings and $32,866 on contents. In the recorded cause of fires, fireworks took the lead for that week, forty fires being attributed to this cause. The loss from fireworks was $4,563, showing a small average loss from this cause.

This was somewhat a surprise and is attributed to the watchfulness of local fire departments and the fact that fires did not get much of a start before they were handled. Fire Marshal William E. Longley is gratified with the showing and commends the fire-fighting organizations. He says that many large losses could be prevented by watchfulness on the part of those charged with such responsibility, and the quick response of the firefighters.
Sparks from chimneys and from locomotives caused the second largest number of fires during that week, sparks being credited with 42. There were six fires of incendiary origin and all these are now under

July 4 Fire Loss Less Than Anticipated Large Number of Small Fires.
The number of fires occurring in Indiana during the first week in July, according to the reports made to the state fire marshal's department, were the largest of any week since the department began making official records. The total loss, however was only about the average. There were more small fires because of the Fourth of July.

investigation by the department. Two over-heated furnaces in the list, varied the usual causes for July fires.
An unusually large number of fires have been caused by lightning lately, and the fire marshal is urging his assistants over the state to make report of all cases of lightning striking buildings, whether there was actual loss or not. They are also urged to report whether buildings struck were equipped with lightning rods.

A Big Class
Judge E. W. Felt and wife, of Indianapolis, visited Walter Fisk and family on North East street, Sunday. The Judge states that his Bible class has a contest on with one at Zionsville, and that the attendance in his class yesterday was 225, and the Zionsville class, 214. He said that autos are used by his class to "bring them in," instead of taking them away from the services, as is usually the case in a. community where autos are still a novelty. That eventually they will become a help to religious work all over the country, as they now are in the larger cities.
