THIEVES SECURE MM AUTOS AS POLICE® BUSY Thirteen Machines, Valued at $12,445, Stolen During Night. With a large portion of the police department assigned to street car strike duty, auto thieves reaped a harvest Wednesday night, making away wisl thirteen cars valued at $12,445 by their owners, according to police records today. Most of the machines stolen had been parked downtown. . One of thet machines, a S2OO car, had been found by a citizen today. From past experiences it /was expected that a majority of the dozen unrecovered machines will be found deserted, stripped of tires, bumpers, windshields, tops and other parts easily removed. Report For Six Months A detective department report made June 30, showed that during the first six months of this year, 500 more autos were stolen than during the same • period last year. Thefts during the first * fourteen days of July are keeping up with the mark for the first part of the year. It has been some time since any rings of auto thieves have been apprehended. Detective reports disclose that most of the kuto thieves arrested admit stealing cars only for joy-riding purposes. A recent drive made by detectives on second-hanjJ dealers charged with failing to have license and to properly report purchase of second-hand property was expected to stop, for the most part, the practice of thieves of stealing cars, stripping them and then disposing of the parts at low prices to these dealers. Trucked Away * Police now believe that the stolen parts are being trucked away from Indianapolis to other cities and sold. That some autos are being driven away from this city to other cites and the engine numbers and other means of identification changed, is an assured fact. Hilton Crouch, former local dirt track auto racer, arrested in Chicago, on a robbery charge and who still suspected of having some knowledge of -the murder of Wilkinson Haag, drug company official, May 17, confessed in Chicago, it is said, that he was a member of a ring that stole cars here and other place and drdve them to other States.

WOMEN OF WAGE Praise Lydia E. Pinkham’a Vegetable Compound Mrs. Annie Kwinski of 626 Ist Avenue, Milwaukee, Wis., writes

that she became so weak and rundown that she was not able to do her housework. She saw the name Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound in the paper and said to her husband, “I will try that medicine and see

if it will help fne.” She says she took six bottles and is feeling much better. Mrs. Mattie Adams, who lives In Downing Street, Brewton, Ala., writes as follows: “A friend recommended Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound and since taking it I feel like a different woman.” With her children grown up, the middle-aged woman finds time to do the things she never had time to do before —read the new books, see the new plays, enjoy her grandchildren, take an active part in church and civic affairs. Far from being pushed aside by .the younger set, she finds a full, rich life of her own. That is, if her health is good. Thousands of women past fifty, say they owe their health to Lydia' HI Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. —Advertisement.
