THE TEMPERATURE

WENT TO TEN BELOW ZERO SATURDAY NIGHT. PEOPLE NOT EXPECTING SUCH A

GREAT CHANGE AND MANY SUFFER.

Most people have been made aware of the extreme drop in temperature Saturday night. While colder weather was predicted, the extreme low temperature of 10 degrees below zero took a great many people off their guard. The great quantity of snow made the cold seem more intense even than it was. Some thermometers registered as low as 14 degrees and there seems no doubt that it was fully as cold as was the coldest weather of December.

A good many people were unprepared again for extreme weather, it is said, and considerable suffering among the needy and dependant is the result. The extreme cold cut the church attendance considerably and there were very few people on the streets during the day.

The Hesperian Club met with Mrs. and Miss Pickett, on West Main street, Saturday afternoon. The hostesses proved themselves, as charming in hospitality as they are in other traits of character, dispensing music and dainty refreshments. Mrs. A. L. New read a most excellent and interesting paper on the '"Port of Hong Kong.1' By request. Mrs. J. F. Mitchell, Sr., reread her prize moving picture story, which created much mirth by its 'phantasies. The club pictures were distributed among the members.

This negative was taken at the residence of Mrs. Albert New, when that beautiful home was opened for the "annual jubilee." The members of the club are seated at the banqueting table dressed in Chinese costumes. The beautiful decorations show clearly and altogether it is a .•wonderful picture. Mrs. Hiram

Eshelman. Mrs. Clara Strickland and Miss Margaret Baldwin, the newly elected officers, were informally installed for the duties of the incoming club year.

POINTS THE WAY

The Statement of This Indianapolis Resident Will Interest Our Readers.

Our neighboring town. Indianapolis, points the way in the words of on of its most respected citizens:

James Hoard, 922 S. East St., Indianapolis, Ind.,says: "My opinion of Doan's Kidney Pills is that they are a most worthy remedy and will give relief whenever they are used right, I was in pretty bad shape when I began taking them. The tronble was chiefly with my kidneys. They were irregular in action and I often suffered from pain when passing the kidney secretions. My back very seldom stopped bothering me it was a sort of a dull, nagging ache that made me miserable. Doan's Kidney Pills had been used by one of my relatives with great benefit and I tried them. The first dose helped me and after I had finished a few boxes, my kidneys were all right and the backache had left me. I have been as hearty as a man could be ever since I was cured twelve years ago. I honestly believe Doan's Kidney Pills saved my life."

Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy—get, Doan's Pills—the same that Mr. Hoard had. Fosf"er-Milburn Co Props., Buffalo, N, Y. 4 .T (Advertisement.)

Mr. and Mrs. Frank Jackson, of South East street, entertained at dinner Sunday, Miss Kate and Nelson Watson.

Mr. and Mrs. Charles Byers entertained Dr. and Mrs. C. A. Robinson and Mr. and Mrs. Guy Kennedy Sunday, in honor of Mrs. Byers' brother, Elwood Preble, of Richmond,*

Mr. and Mrs. Darwin Herkless, of Carthage, were the guests of Mr. and Mrs. O. J. Ellis Saturday. Mr. Herkless was the winner of the silver cup at the poultry show.

Dr. C. A. Robinson will address the Sunday school class of Judge Edwin W. Felt, at Irvington, next Sunday.

Mr. and Mrs. "William G. Lambertson, of Bentonville, were guests of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. William Marsh, Sunday night and went to Indianapolis Sunday.

OBITUARY.

Henry JL. scott, son or James "and Jane Scott, pioneer citizens of Hancock county, was born in this county October 14, 1856 died Sunday afternoon, January 17, 1915, at his home, 421 Mechanic street, age 58 years, three months and three days. The last long illness of the deceased dates back to December 26, 1913, and from that time to the time of his death he suffered almost constantly, undergoing an operation on July 20 last and being treated at a hospital at Indianapolis for a time since. He had a desire to live and work for his family and home and was patient and hopeful through all his great suffering and discouragements.. He realized that all was being done for him that could be done and appreciated the interest of his friends in his welfare. During the last weeks of his illness he realized that he could not recover, talked of his condition with his wife and daughter and was prepared and willing for the great change when it came.

Mr. Scott spent all his life in this county. He was united in marriage to Vallie M. Cox, daughter of Benjamin H. and Charlotte Cox, on November 29, 1888. To this union were born two children, one being deceased, and one daughter with the widow surviving. He is also survived by two brothers, William and David Scott, one brother, Job, died at Indianapolis about three years ago.

Fraternally Mr. Scott was a valued member of the Modern Woodmen of America, a charter member of Wenonah Tribe of Red Men and Haymakers Association of this city.

Mr. Scott's calling was that of a mechanic in wood work and he was an expert workman. He was an honest laborer, always having the interests of his employers at heart and the quality of his work, his ability and faithfulness are shown in the fact that he was employed for almost a quarter of a century by the same firm, the Greenfield Lumber and Ice Company.

Mr. Scott had many fine qualities that originate from a kind heart, a clean life and a desire to do good. He loved his home and family and seemed to have them and their welfare constantly in mind in all that he did. He was a friend who could always be counted on in a time of need or emergency, he was honored as a fraternal brother and his'counsel carried weight in the lodge halls as coming from a man of mature and clean mind. As a neighbor he was all that the term could imply. He was never too tired or busy to do for a neighbor any act of kindness or to help him in any way possible with advice, a word of cheer or with personal service. Mr. Scott was a most liighly respected man in every relation of life. 25d-l-w '•(Advertisement.)

Card of Thanks.

We wish to express our sincere thanks to our many friends, neighbors and relatives and fraternal orders for their kindness and sympathy shown us during the sickness and death of our beloved husband and father, Henry L. Scott Rev. Charlton for his consoling words, and also the singers and undertaker and for the beautiful floral tributes. Wife and Daughter. 25d-l-w (Advertisement.) 'V

ONE CARRIER MADE COMPLETE ROUNDS

Carson Covered His Route Completely Both Friday anil Saturday. Other Failed.

Only one of the ten rural route carriers succeeded in making their routes complete both Friday and Saturday and that one was Fred Carson. The snow is the heaviest in years, it is said, although it is not as badly drifted as was the big snow last winter. The depth of the snow and the. crust on top made it hard to get through, however, until the roads were broken. Horses gave out in a few miles, as it was slavish walking and a rig was a dead pull all the time. The roads are getting pretty well broken now and the carriers will probably be able to make their entire routes,
