MR. FIXIT Hoosler Traveling Man Says Policeman Violated Traffic Law,

Let Mr. Fixit present your ease to city officials. He is The Times tive at the City Hall. Write him at The Times. Awakening from a lull in correspondence which Mr. Fixit hopes resulted from better business, the Hoosler Traveling Man returned to Mr. Flxlt’s column today with an elaborate diagaram showing a traffic law violation by a police officer in front of the city market. The map shows the officer, accompanied by his wife, driving into a safety zone to purchase a bit of nourishment from one of the sidewalk vendors and it is asserted that tlie officer replied, in a “.sassy” manner, to a rebuke for violating the law. Mr. Fixit believes that the conversion of the north lawn of the courthouse into a parking place and removal of sidewalk stands will relieve the traffic conditions considerably. Os course, there is no excuse for a police officer’s refusal to obey traffic regulations. Sometimes we common folk don't know what the rules are all about, but we obey them just the same. DEAR MR. FIXIT: Just a few lines about Southern Ave., from Shelby St. east t.o Boyd Ave. It is in a bad condition. Can there be anything done to make it so that it ca.n be used as a street instead of a mud hole? In the middle of it. near Shelby St., there is a big hole nearly twrf feet deep. Have heard it is going to be paved this summer. Is this so? X. Y. Z. There is no record that it will be paved. The city engineer’s department will investigate for repairs.

SAYS IT IS HARD TO REALIZE SHE IS SAME PERSON Indianapolis Lady Had Great Change in Health After Taking Konjola. “For several years I was in a terrible condition with neuritis and kidney and bladder troubles—l had pains across my shoulders and arms that would get worse as the day went on, so that by evening I would feel like I couldn't stand the agony

any longer. But finally I found Konjola, and let me teiy you that it has made such a ehangfe in me that it is hard to realize I am the same person. This wonderful medicine has also benefited my whole system so 'thoroughly that I am* like an entirely new woman now,” said Mrs. S. A. Norton, well-known Indianapolis lady, living at 447 East Tenth Street, this city, while talking a few days ago with the Konjola Man, who daily meets crowds of people at Hook's drug store, corner Pennsylvania and Market Streets, Indianapolis. "My health was surely terrible before I got Konjola,” continued Mrs. Norton. "My limbs were also affected with neuritis pains, so bad at times that I could hardly stand on my feet. I had still worse off, because my ankles would get swollen, due to kidney troubles, and oh. It Is hard to put in words Just how miserable my suffering had been. At nights I couldn’t rest, for I would have terrible back pains on account of my kidneys, and such awful burning sensations, caused from bladder troubles. My general health had about failed me, and my nerves gave way, so that I almost became despondent, for I couldn’t find anything that would reach my trouble. “Well, my husbahd had begun to take Konjola first, and it made such a great change in his health so quickly that I started on this compound, and as I said, it is hard for me to realize that I am the same person now. Instead of getting up and feeling all worn out in the mornings, I am now able to go about my housework with no thought of the neuritis pains. They have entirely disappeared, and I can hardly believe myself when It comes evening and I still feel active and fine. My arms, shoulders and limbs are free of all pains now. The swelling has disappeared from my ankles and my kidneys are in good order. The burning sensations, which I used to suffer, ate also relieved. I rest soundly every night, and that is why I feel so fine every morning. I don't have the pains in my back any more, and my nerves are steadier and my general health is just like it was years ago. “J have Konjola to thank for the splendid way I am feeling, and I hope everybody who suffers like I did will try this wonderful medicine.” The Konjola Man is at Hook’s drug store, corner Pennsylvania and Market Streets, Indianapolis, where he is daily meeting the public and introducing and explaining the merits of this remedy. Free samples given. Konjola also Is for sale at every Hook drug store in Indianapolis and by all druggists in the nearby towns. —Adveillsement.

“The bankers of the police department,” is a title that might be given Trafficmen Kurrasch and Sweeney, who sit in the “sticker room” at police headquarters and receive "deposits” from motorists who have failed to heed certain portions of the city's traffic code. This month, to date, more than 5,000 autoists have visited the sticker department to pay for traffic violations. More than $1,200 lias been collected, as compared with about $2,000 for the first three months of this year. "Alibi Room” “I think we had better change the name of this department to the ‘alibi room,” as ninety-nine out of every hundred autoists who get have plenty of alibis to offer,” Sweeney said as he received $2 from a driver who had parked overtime. “Say, you ought to see some of the women come up here and try to vamp us as they tell us a hard-luck story of how they received a tag on their auto,” Kurrasch said. Overtime Parking Overtime parking brings the majority of the motorists to the sticker room, according to the officers. If they admit their guilt, the drivers are allowed to pay $2, and if hey plead not guilty they are slated in court, where they stand a good chance of paying sll. For the second offense the cost Is $3 and for third offense $.5.
