ARTISTS PAINT 640 FEET LONG PICTURE HERE Longest Canvas in World Will Be Used to Decorate Auto Show. TO HANG OTHER ART The longest picture In the world Is being painted In Indianapolis. It Is a picture 640 feet long and ten feet high. Were It stretched along Washington street it would reach from Meridian street past Capitol avenue. It is nearly three times as long as the Soldiers and Sailors' Monument Is high. Six artists, working eight hours a day and six days a week have been wielding their brushes upon 1t for two weeks and will continue to paint upon it until a day or two before March S in order that it may be ready to be hung as the principal feature of the decorations for the twentieth automobile, show in the manufacturers’ building at the state fair grounds, March 8 to 13. The artists are working on the picture in the loft of the stage of the Gayety .theater in East Washington street. It was necessary to hang the frames in which the clotlf upon which the painting Is being made from the celling so that the artists work upon a platform thirty leet above the stage level, so big Is the tndertaking. ITILL ENCIRCLE ENTIRE BUILDING. There is not a building in Indianapolis, >utside the Manufacturers’ building, big tnongh to provide room enough for the irtists to work upon the picture were it to be painted on one continuous piece of tioth from end to end. So it was found neeessary to break it into forty sections, “ach sixteen feet long and ten fe°t high. When completed these 'sections will be hung over the glass walls of the Manufacturers’ building in such sequence that they will f-oinpose one continuous panorama running entirely around the interior of the building. Being painted on muslin, the sections will have the effect of huge stained glass windows. The scenery contained in the panorama is designed to represent the country as it unfolds itself before the eyes of ths motorist. This will be suggested by the appearance of a big road here and there. Hills, trees, mountains, forests, streams, flowers and other landscape features will be painted. The long picture is the idea of Frank J. Zimmerer, art director of the Circle theater, and Charles Read, decorator, who has the contract for the beautification of the show building. Mr. Zimmerer declared the work to be the biggest single job of scene painting in history. Five thousand yards of muslin will be required to complete all of the decorations. OTHER WORKS OF REAL ART. Although the panorama will be the most spectacular feature of the decorations, other features will be upon a commensurate scale. Large art shades are being made to be hung over every electric light ih the building and gayly colored stre-amers will swing from lamp to lamp. The strictly utilitarian pillars which support the roof will have their utilitarian character camouflaged behind the colors and shield of the Indianapolis Automobile Trade association. "It is a peal task to plan and execute forty different landscapes so they will biend together into one continuous whole, keeping in mind that we must have lovely color and attractive design in the short time we have been given to finish the work." said Mr. Zimmerer. “It has required a lot of careful planning to get

MARMON BUILT IN NEW PLANT I The No. 3 plant of Nordyke Sl Mar- | mon Company, the second great addition j :o the'lndianapolis factory In two years, :is rapidly nearing completion. The main j portion of this last addition, the 800j foot final assembly building, one story : high, is finished and Is now in operation, j The largest building of the new adrtli Hon, the body plant, a five-story coni crete structure 600 feet long, Is In tbe ! last stages of construction ar.d also will i be ready for production soon. | The new series Marmon 34 is anew ! product, built in a brand new plant, with new machine tools by an organ!- ! zation fresh from the completion of a I most exacting war motor contract. The ! workmanship of the new engine, Its re- ! markable finish and accurate parts reflect the perfection of the new plnnt, ! its methods and standards and the ex- ; traordinary production skill of this or- ! ganlzation. j Speaking of the company's expansion I program and the building of the third i factory, Walter C. Marmon, president ! of the Nordyke A Marmon Cos., said : "The fact that there is a shortage i of 2.000.000 motor ears in the country ; Is sufficient guaranty for the increased i production we and other motor car mak- ! ers have undertaken. From early 1017 j until the spring of 1919 the automobile j industry was busy on war work. The country’s normal demand for a million and a half cars was not half filled. Consequently even the 2,200,000 cars which are proposed for 1920 will flail to meet present requirements, and it may be well into 1920 before the industry catches up with the shortage.” The local distributors of the Marmon are at Eleventh and Meridian streets. the whole scheme in mind, It is on such a vast scale. "I have had the opportunity of seeing about everything there is to see in this country in the way of theater and stage decoration, and I know that nothing like this has ever been accomplished before. To give a comparative idea of how big the plan is, ahe decorations for tbe Manufacturers' bulldiug would be Just a little bit In excess of what would be required were one to set out to embellish the interior of the Hippodrome In New York." Besides Mr. Zimmerer and Mr. Read the men working on the decorations are Robert Read and Emil Nelglick, well-known local scene painters; Carl Graff, who has had several of his more serious works exhibited, and Moyses Gutteres. native of Portugal, who is are director of tbe Apex Film Corporation of this city. Gutteres studied in Shanghai. China. Arrangement of the various materials in tbe building will be one of tbe most strenuous tasks In connection with the coming show. The artists probably will bo compelled to work until a short time before the opening date. Then It will take a small army of men to hang the various parts so the doors can swing open on time. Ballot Labor’s Best Weapon—Gompers JACKSONVILLE, Kola.. Feb. 27. -He clarlng that Ibe ballot would prove labor's most potent weapon In combatting the forces of reaction. Samuel Gompers. president of the American Federation of Labor, In a speech before the executive committee of the federation here, said that organized labor has turned to the vote to keep the privileged classes from depriving the masses of the freedom en joyed before the world war.

By DON STEDFELD. Nothing in the business world has been more remarkable than the of the automobile. What in pre-war days were the refinements of the few are now standard equipment on most automobiles. The old-time one-lunger' has given way to the four, the six, the eight and the twelve-cylinder motor. Carburetion and ignition troubles haCe been overcome to such an extent that they do not longer constitute an automobile problem Bodydesigns are now truly remarkable. Little, It seems, can be added In the way of comforts and conveniences. Motor, axle and other troubles have been reduced until they are really Insignificant. And these Improvements have been made in the face of constantly increasing handicaps. Gasoline, for Instance, has advanced more than 100 per cent In price and has been greatly lowered In quality. But Improved motors and better carburetion have practically overcome the price Increase by putting power and . added mileage into the present low-test gas. The Motor Mart, 140 North Delaware street, has been opened by W. B. O'Don- '

It’s the testimony of thousands of women that it has benefited or entirely eradicated such distressing ailments as women are prone to. For over fifty years some of Dr. Pierce’s home medicines have been selling over the drug counters, so that more than fort>-eight million bottles have been sold during that time. This speaks well for the reliability and value of Dr. Pierce's standard home remedies. Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery is a blood tonic and strengthbuilder which contains no alcohol, yet has tonic qualities that have endeared it to the American public. Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets, composed of May-apple, aloes and jalap, have long been considered the best vegetable laxative, in the same way that Dr, Pierce’s Favorite Prescription has long been known as the best tonic for diseases peculiar to womankind. More recently that wonderful discovery of Dr. Pierce’s—namely, Anuric (anti-uric-acid), has been successfully used by many thousands of people whojwrite Dr. Pierce in unqualified terms of the benefits received —that their backache and other symptoms of kidney trouble have been completely conquered by the use of Anuric.

My limbs would ache and I would chill. 1 wouldn’t be able to stay up, no matter what I wanted to do, or where I wanted to go. My people tried giving me different medicines and teas and tonics, yet I didn’t get any better. "Someone told me of Cardui, and I began to take it. I noticed it helped me. I kept it up. After a months I didn’t have any trouble. For about six months I used it, before . . . “I found I was all right, and from that day to this have never had any trouble at this time. I have taken it since, a bottle or two In the winter, especially when I have been exposed, and would take a cold, for I consider It the best thing a woman can take to tone up Uie system, keep off nervousness, and increase the appetite. I certainly know it has been of great benefit to me.” If you are weak, nervous, or suffer from womanly troubles such as Mrs. Oswalt mentions, take Cardui, the Woman’s Tonic.
