SULLIVAN, Ind., March 28.-Thc fight which has been brewing in this county between Democratic county officials and county offlcers-eleci for some time resulted to-day in Tllham Ogle, who was elected county clerk in 1902, demanding office from the present incumbent, Robert Taylor. Mr. Taylor refused to abdicate in favor of Ogle. He claims that his term as clerk of the county does not expire until Jan. 1. VXSö, according to an act passed by the last Legislature extending the terms of certain county officers. Ogle has retained attorneys, and it is likely the case will go to the courts. A similar condition exists in regard to the county auditor's oßice in this county. Edward Russell was elected auditor of the county In 1!C "and will soon make a demand for the office from James M. Lang, the present incumbent. Mr. Lang claims an extension of term on the same grounds as Mr. Taylor.

Nearly every man has a craving for a bit of candy now and then, but nearly every one "wishes he hadn't" after eating it, for there follows more or less disturbance? and "don't feel good." That Is because cane and beet sugar candy has to be handled by the liver and generally that organ has hbout all it can do already, so the sugar and candy is a heavy tax on the liver and sets up a congestion of that organ, showing in coated tongue, fevered stomach, bilious skin and too often in serious liver and kidney troubles. Knowing this the food expert has been at work again, this time to give the people candy they can enjoy and not suffer from. These are known as Dextro Candies, made from l'ost Sugar. This sugar is of the "fruit fcroup" which does not tax the liver at all but is ready for quick assimilation when eaten. Children and adults can use Dextro Candies freely and thus obtain a most valuable body food with noae of the 111 effects following the use of ordinary candy made from cane sugar. The food element is a strong feature In these candies and every variety Is delicious. Made by the Postum Cereal Co.. Ltd.. Battle Cretk. Mich., und sold by Grocers aud Druggists, at 25 cents pkg.
