WE'RE NOT THINKING OF "TAKING 'EM OFF" YET, HOWEVER —PRESENT COLD SNAP

NOT ENJOYED

Warmer weather is promised for the next few days, but that does not keep one from shivering now, at the thought of "taking "em off," which usually intrudes itself about this time of year. The facts are that winter clothing and a cheerful fire are about as enjoyable now as they were several weeks ago. After several days of comparatively mild weather, the present cold snap hit pretty hard, as it is stated by some that there were a few scattered flakes of snow fell this morning.

With nearly a week of April gone, however, we may look for real garden-making weSther soon, and fishermen are looking forward to some happy days along the creek with the fish biting like old times.

KILL THE CATARRH GERM USE HYOMEI

It's the Direct-to-the-Spot .Method— You Breathe It.

Why delay and continue to needlessly suffer the ravages of catarrh germs? It is not only unnecessary, but dangerous. Try now—tottay— the Hyomei treatment for catarrh, head colds, or bronchial coughs.

The Hyomei process of destroying catarrh germs relieving head colds and healing the raw and inflamed mucous membrane is not only most effective, but is quick, entirely harmless and pleasant to use—it's nature way—you breathe it—no bad tasting drugs to upset the stomach.

You cannot successfully reach the organs where the catarrh germs thrive except with antiseptic and germicidal air. The common sense method is to breathe a few times daily health-restoring Hyomei. Being medicated air, it goes right, to the spot and immediately reaches all the diseased tissues. Tts antiseptic healing begins at once. 'If suffering from frequent colds, headaches, raising of mucous, spasmodic coughing, difficult breating, or that weak and run-down feeling, surely try Hyomei. It's your duty to yourself, friends and family, for no catarrh victim ever enjoys good health.

Get from your druggist at once a complete Hyomei outfit, $1.00 size. Early Drug Co. always sells it on money back if not benefited plan.

ARBOR DAY is WOMAN'S DAY

By MISS VIDA NE WSOM

President of the Indiana State Federation of Clubs

Arbor Day in a very large sense, is woman's day. It is an occasion! which appeals to the finer sentiments. brings us closer to the outdoor life and to a better apprecia-! tion of Natures riches, and for these reasons, and more, the worn-1 en of Indiana, both members of! clubs and those who are not, should! lead in its observance on April 17 that all communities may derive from it all of the splendid possibilities it- offers.

Arbor Day stands for cleaner and more attractive cities, towns and rural communities. It stands for more than speeches and parades. It$ stands for the real planting of trees and shrubs, and for the gen-5 eral adornment of home and public grounds, streets and parks, and a general betterment of conditions which will make a community a more attractive place in which to live. The Indiana Federation of Clubs stands(for all of these things, so, in. promoting Arbor Day celebrations, the club women of the state will promote the interests of the Federation.

Arbor Day is a civic occasion which opens to women's clubs an unusual opportunity to show their aggressiveness in advancing the physical development of their community,. and these clubs should take the leadership in organizing Arbor Day celebrations in a large way. With parades, speeches and

OBITUARY

Andrew J. Beagle, son of John and Nancy Beagle, was born near McCordsville, December 9, 1847, and died at his home in Eden, Indiana. March 25, 1914, age 66 years, 3 mouths and 16 days.

He was united in marriage to Mary J. Reeves, May 28, 1876. To this union were born three children. Noble Beagle. Leora Beagle and Blanche Hazel Beagle, the latter having preceded him in death. September 29, 1890.

He united with the Friends church at Maxwell about 20 years ago, under the ministry of Rev. Sister Carter. Since that time he has been an ardent member of the Friends church.

His afflictions in his last few years were so great that he \\tas not permitted to attend church, but often said that he would like to go. He was very calm in his religious affiliations with the church, and was often heard singing. "I'm a Child of the King," and "The Far Away Home of the Soul."

In his last sickness, he remarked several times that if it was* God's will for him to die that he was prepared to go and rest with God's angels in Heaven.

He leaves a widow, Mary J. Beagle, one daughter, Leora one son, Noble one step-son, Dallas Reeves, who was as near to him as his own son two grandchildren, Herschell and Dale Beagle one sister, Affa belle Beagle one brother, 'Maurice Beagle, and other relatives, and friends to mourn his departure. "Life has a burden on everyone's shoulder

None may escape from trouble and care Miss it in youth and 'twill come when we're older,

And fit us as close as the garments we wear. Sorrow comes into our lives uninvited,

Robbing our heart of its treasures of song Lovers grow cold and friendships are slighted.

Yet somehow or other we worry along. Every day toil" is'*an everyday blessing,

Though poverty's cottage and crust we may share Weak is the back on which burdens are pressing,

But stout is the heart that is strengthened by prayer. Somehow or other the pathway grows brighter,

Just when we mourn there was one to befriend Hope in the heart makes the burden seem lighter,

And somehow or other we get to the end. II. D. REEVES.

LEORA BEAGLE.

the actual planting of many trees in public places, the women's clubs can spread a civic message through a community on April 17th such as cannot be done on any other day. It is an occasion, too. when clubp can pay tribute to their presidents and others who are or have been active in club work, or to other women who have also given signal service to their town, by naming the trees for them.

The on-coming generations wrill be reached by the good influences of Arbor Day through a law which compels ail public schools in Indiana to observe the day. While the lessons in civic patriotism are being so taught the children of the time, the active observance of Arbor Day by the women is needed to ive the occasion still more impressiveness to the youthful minds.

In every place, too, there is* a need for immediate results in the way of community adornment in the form of trees, shrubs and flowers, and to get these results it is essential that Indiana has the power of her women in Arbor Day affairs. To plant a million trees a year in this state is not a great task. If it is done for the next ten or twenty years, the people of today will restore to those who come in the future what has been taken from our state in the past generations—the priceless legacy which nature gave us in the form of trees.

Yetter Will Upheld.

The jury which tried the Yetter will case at Noblesville, on a change of

avenue

from this county, made a

verdict Wednesday evening, upholding the will. Walker & Cook and Arthur C. Van Duyn, of this city, were attorneys in the case. The plaintiff was Raleigh B. Yetter, who filed suit against Clara Yetter, widow, and Leora Horn and Josephine Yetter, daughters, of Andrew Yetter, who died several years ago. He left an estate of $20,000, which he willed to the three women, cutting his son off with $5. The son contested the will on the ground that the maker of the will' was of unsound mind and that undue influence was used to secure the making of the will.
