Marott at Fall Creek and Meridian street and erect the $2,#00,000 temple on the creek bank, making jt one of the beauty spots of America.

Plans to push the probe of the city purchasing agent’s office vigorously are being made by Gustav G. Schmidt, president of the city council. Mr. Schmidt announced today that he will appoint a new Investigating committee at the next regular meeting of the council on Jan. 19. Mr. Schmidt was the chairman of the old probing ’committee, which was appointed by President William B. Peake In November. With his accession to the president’s chair last meeting it is impossible for Mr. Schmidt to serve as head of the committee looking into the official affairs of Dwight S. Ritter, the purchasing agent. The committee was appointed after reports became persistent that the purchasing agent and other city departments were making purchases of more than $2,000 value without submitting the contracts to the council for ratification.

Taie plain bltro-phosphate is the advice of these physicians to thin, delicate, nervous- people who lack vim, energy and nerve force, and there seems to be ample proof of the ofQcacy of this preparation to warrant the recommendation. Moreover, If we judge from the countless preparations and treatments ivlrich are continually being advertise} for the purpose of making thin people fleshy, developing arms, neck and boat, and replacing ugly hollows and angles by the soft carved lines of health and beauty, there are evidently thousands of men and women who keenly feel their excessive thinness. f Thinness and weakness are often duo to starved nerves. Onr bodies neOd more phosphate than is contained in modern foods. Physicians claim there is nothing that will supply this deficiency so wel) as the organic phosphate known among druggists as bttro phosphate, which is inexpensive and is sold by Haag's seven stores atop Hook’s drag stores and most alljlmggtote tinder a guarantee of satisfaction or- mxmiy back.

REDRAWS STATE HIGHWAY CHART Changes Made in Tentative List Connect County Seats. Another tentative designation of highways to be constructed and maintained by the state has been announced by L. H. bright, director of the state highway commission. The roads must be definitely designated before April 1. The tentative designation of roads connects nearly every county seat in the state. It calls for the construction of six roachs out of Indianapolis of which- four are -main market bfghways. A tentative selection of roads was made last spring, but a number of changes have been made since that time. Some objection still is being made to the roads to. be improved. f ßome of the strongest objection is being made to the fact that there is no direct route from Indianapolis to the southwestern part of the state. The road designated at present runs through Bedford, Bloomington and Martinsville to Plainfield, where It connects with the national road. Persons living along this road are insisting that a connection be made directly with Indianapolis from Martinsville, Instead of by wa yof Plainfield and the National road.
