TRUCK CAPITAL OF NATION NOW INDIANAPOLIS City's Selection Follows New York and Chicago Auto Show Activities. JIG FUTURE FOR STATE Indianapolis bad been chosen as naional headquarters of the Motor Track Iwners of North America, an association if motor truck operators and users ’ormed at the recent auto shows at New York and Chicago, It was announced at the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce today. Indianapolis has not only been chosen 'or national headquarters but Indiana, because of Its highly developed motor ransport system, is to be the experinental laboratory In which the various Steps looking to a higher development of motor transportation will be tested out. “I have made a tour of the United States and found the motor transport work of the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce far superior to that being lone by any other commercial organitaion of the country,” said Joseph Husson, ■ditor of the Commercial Vehicle. Tom Snyder, secretary of the highway ransport division of the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce, attended both iuto shows and spoke before the highway transport conferences at both New York and Chicago. Mr. Snyder has been isked to accept the position of executive secretary of the new national organisation, which work he will conduct In connection with his division In the local chamber. MOVEMENT RAPIDLY GAINING MOMENTUM. •‘The organization of the Motor Truck Owners’ Association marks a big step in a movement which has been rapidly gaining momentum throughout the country." said Mr. Snyder. ‘‘The practical application of the motor truck to distribution has been made possible through the development of our national high ways and the motor truck. It has resulted naturally from the growing demands of manufacturing and commercial interests of the country. "Evidences of the growth of motor transportation in Indiana have been quietly manifested from time to time, but the extent to which it has already developed is but little appreciated by the average business man of the state. "Interesting facts along this line were brought out at the recent state convention of the Indiana Transfer and Warehouseman’s association in this city. This organization has a membership of 280 truck owner In the state, operating of trucks in a rapidly growing lnterurban system. A survey made by this organization showed that more than fifty merchants within a radius of 100 miles of Indianapolis were hauling all their merchandise from Indianapolis jobbing houses on their own motor trucks. ‘‘lt was further brought out that In the event of a railway strike or the tying up of railway transportation from any other cause, the motor truck interests of the state were so organized that more than 1,000 trucks would have been immediately available, operating over a system that would thoroughly cover the state for a radius of 150 miles from the capital. TRUCKMEN BACK BETTER HIGHWAYS. "The truckmen of Indiana are cooperating actively in the establishment of the state highways system, with a view to seeing that roads are made to stand up under heavy motor trucks, that they are sufficiently wide, while cuts and fills are being advocated with a view ,U> the more economical operation of ■trucks on the level roads. The day of road built for the driver of the pleasure car is past: the economic demands jf the country require a highly developed national system of highways for commercial use. "The new National Association of Motor Truck Owners ts the outgrowth of a tri-state organization, including Indiana. Ohio and Pennsylvania. I have called a trl-state meeting for Feb. 20, at Philadelphia, at which plans of organization of the na r lonal association, to comprise the various state organizations, will be worked out. “The success of the new movement is 'assured. It has the backing of the federal highways council and the National Automobile Chamber of Commerce, an organization of the big manufacturers of commercial aud pleasure cars.

transport system, so that all that is necessary is the formation of a national association for the further development of ths movement of nation-wide character. The advanced steps taken by Indiana along this line were brought out at both the New York and Chicago conferences. "For example, there is not a day but I arrange through my division of the Chamber of Commerce for loads to Chicago, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Lor.isville and other large cities. This morning a truck brought in household goods from , Grand Rapids, Mich., and I connected j the owner with another family wishing to have thetr goods moved to Grand Rapids. I think it can safely be said that more than half of the moving of household goods Into and out of Indianapolis is now done by motor truck because of the decreased wear and tear resulting from less handling and the lack of delayin transportation. "I am confident that the day of transcontinental motor truck hauling ts but 3 few years ahead of us, and the organization of the motor trucks Into a national organization will be a big step 1 k that direction.” At Last! “Fat Salary” CLEVELAND, Feb. 4.—The Garfield Heights administration was attacked in the courts for allowing a "fat salary" in- j crease to the treasurer.

“EVERYBODY’S TALKING ABOUT THIS PEPGEN” Mrs. L. Lancaster of North Street, Indianapolis, Says It Seems That Way, and She Describes Her Own Experience. “Every one around here seems to be talking about Pepgen,” says Mrs. L. Lancaster of 523 East North street, Indianapolis, who proceeds to do a little talking about it herself from personal experience. Mrs. Lancaster, who Is a young widow, has always lived in Indianapolis. She makes her home with her brother. In describing the benefit she received from Pepgen, Mrs. Lancaster says: "I had not been in good health since I bad a case of ivy poisoning. The nervousness that it caused upset my system generally. "I felt sick all over and had severe headaches. I got only a little sleep at night. My appetite was decidedly poor. In fact, most of the time food would nauseate me. "A neighbor of mine told me about Pepgen being such a good blood tonic and I tried it, I want to say that Pepgen worked wonders. “Pepgen purified my blood, resulting in the healing of my ivy poisoning sores. It relieved by headaches and strengthened my whole Bystem. It steadied my nerves, too. "I am glad to recommend Pepgen to others on account of the benefit I received from it.” Pepgen may be obtained at Henry J. Huder's Drug Stores, Washington and Pennsylvania streets, Illinois and Michigan streets, or from any other first-class drug store anywhere.—Adv.

I was troubled with backaches and at times my right side i would become sore. My condition wis j becoming worse right along, i "My son Merle had worked during va (cation for the Hook Drug Company, and | one day when I mentioned that I was feeling badly he said: ‘Mother, try Pepgen. Every one Is buying it and ! they speak mighty well of it.’ ‘‘So I got the Pepgen, and I think It Is rightly named, for it certainly put pep In me. I was relieved of my liver trouble ■by Pepgen. It gave me, a good appetite and built up my entire system. I also took the laxative tablets with good i results. "Pepgen has deserved my recommenda- ! tlon and I earnestly give it for the benefit of other sufferers.’’ Pepgen reaches those Ills of the stomach, kidneys and liver that sap your (energy and "set your nerves.” It Is like comldned health and life insurance, because it not only shields you from the Inroads of failing health, but prepares you to withstand the trials of the future.

Frequently I would have such a dej pressed feeling that I would sit down and cry, I was In such a run-down con- ! ditlon. I have tried many different medicines which failed to help me. “Pepgen proved the remedy I had been seeking. It relieved my Indigestion. I now eat bananas, beans, turnips or anything I want and they do not /hurt me. a bit. My appetite has increased. I p *" gained In weight. I feel stronger healthier than I have for yfars.

MACHINIST CAN SLEEP LIKE LOG Welcome Change of Restfulness for Edward Eastley Is Brought by Pepgen. Edward Kastley, machinist at the Norflyke & Marmon Company, is experiencing the joy that comes from good sound sleep at nights—the solid, strength-build-Ing rest that puts a man In fine shape for bis dally work and gives him keener enjoyment of the pleasures of life. Just a short time ago Mr. Eastley was a hnrd tiro** of it as far as sleep was concerned. He felt out of sorts altogether as a consequence. The change that has come about is due to Pepgen, according to the statement made by his mother Mrs. Francis Eastley. They live at 2412 South Meridian street, Indianapolis. Mrs Lastley says: “My son Edward was in run-down condition and his stomach bothered him a grpnt deal. He said it felt heavy nil the time. He did not have a good ‘ appetite and he was nervous and restless. He got 'ery little sleep at ulght, on account of the nervousness due to his stomach and naturally he felt tired. “Pepgen has given my son a good appetite and he actually sleeps like a log now. He certainly looks a lot better than he did. He says that It has done him more good than anything he had ever taken. We are very glad to recommend Pepgen to others." Pepgen mny be obtained at Henry J. Huder's drug stores, Washington and Pennsylvania streets, Illinois and Michigan streets, or from any other first-class drug stores anywhere.—Adv.

PURE CASCARA FINE LAXATIVE

There Is probably no better laxative known than pure cascara, but cascara alone will not always relieve an aggravated case of constipation. Another well-known remedy Is senna leaves, which have been used from time immemorial to relieve a congested condition of the bowels and never yet has anything been discovered to surpass their effects. But senna leaves alone, like cascara alone, will not always answer the problem. To get best results senna leaves and cascara should be mixed. A little dose of each is like two small horses pulling together In the same

Concern Over Condition of Mrs. Mary Goucher Quickly Eliminated by Pepgen, According to Statement— She Praises Remedy. I The keen appetite enjoyed by Mrs. Mary Gouoher ni wadays is a subject for good-natured "Joshing" on the part of her husband, whereas, a short time ago her lack of appetite, as well as her general condition, was a matter of serious concern with him. The change Is attributed to Pepgen. The Gouchers reside at 655 Underhill street, Louisville, and Mr. Goucher is connected wtth the Kentucky Laundry. Mrs. Goucher says: “I suffered with nervousness for Bins years: that is, ever since my last baby was horn. Gas formed too freely in my stomach. It caused bloating. The least little shock or noise started an inward nervousness—a twitching, nervous sensation began in the pit of my stomach and went all over my body until I would literally shake like a leaf. “I had little or no appetite. I was so constipated T had to take laxatives right along. 1 did not know what it was to get one night's good, sound sleep. And I always felt tired and d-aggy In the morning. “Pepgen has eliminated my nervousness. I do not have that twitching sensation in my stomach. I Jleep aoundly at night and fell flue when I get up. "Mv appetite has increased so that my husband told me the other day that 1 am almost eating him ont of honse and home. “My indigestion is relieved and I do not have to take laxatives. I have no more bloating. Neither do I have smothering spells arty more. I recommend Pepgen on account of the wonder"Tul results it has given me. Pepgen may be/obtained at Henry J. Hnder’e Drug Stores, Washington and Pennaylvanla streets, Illinois and Michigan atreeta, or from iay other flrstclass drug storofe anywhere.— Adv.

It is the only medicine that ever helped ray daughter,” is the statement of Mrs. Kate Springer of 430 E. Merrill street, Indianapolis. The daughter she refers to is Mrs. John. Lamb, who is 25 years old. Continuing her statement, Mrs. Springer says: "My daughter, who makes her home "lth me, was in a serious condition with stomach trouble. "She had attacks of bloating and would be In terrible distress. There was nothing that she could eat without bad effects. Her appetite was very poor. She had bad sinking spells and nearly every night she would have attacks of choking. She thought her heart was affected. "Some statements published by people regarding Pepgen attracted our attention and she got this remedy. She found that as soou as the condition of her stomach had been Improved and her food was •digesting properly those choking and sinking spells no longer occurred. It seems there was nothing really the matter with her heart; it was the disordered condition of her stomach. “Pepgen has improved her health In more ways than one and we are glad to have the opportunity to recommend It t others In need of such relief.”—Adv.

direction, they always out-pull one larger horse of equal weight. To get right proportions of each ingredient requires a chemist’s skill, but you can obtain cascara and 6enna tablets, already prepared, under the name of Pepgen Laxative Tablets at the Weiss Pharmacy or any other first-class drug store. When constipated it is a good idea to take Pepgen Laxative Tablets In connection with Pepgen Tonic. The tablets keep the bowels open, while the tonic acts as a general builder, furnishing strength through the liver, stomach and blood.—Adv.

MRS. MARY GOCCRF-R. NEWSPAPERS ARE FULL OF PEPGEN STORIES Pepgen has received enthusiastic editorials In many of the big newspaper* This significance lies In true merit. Such comment from the newspapers can not fail to have lta weight In the minds of those who are In the least doubtful. Never before In the history of journalism has a proprietary medicine received such ardent pralae.
