i completely ended the neuritis trou* ble I had been suffering over 15 years,” said Mr. iVm. J. Donelson (home address "D.jl Stout St.. Denver, Colo., in a report made to the Konjola Man at Hook's Drug Store, T'ennsylvania and Market Sts., Indianapolis, where he is explaining this surprising new medicine to large crowds daily. Mr. Donelson reports that he is SO years old and served in the Civil War. He states that Konjola was (be first medicine that'really ended his neuritis pains in 15 years, and said that he wants other sufferers to know about this medicine. "My shoulders had been a mass of pains,” said Mr. Donelson. "I was constantly suffering because this neuritis became worse in recent years. I couldn’t use my right arm or hand. The pains would center in my head, and the muscles and leaders in my neck seemed to pull and draw. Finally rpy limbs became afflicted, and I had to limp when 1 walked, dragging one foot after the other. I felt sore and achy all over, and people looked upon me as a cripple. "When I reached Indianapolis I had no idea I would find the medicine to help me. I read about Konjola in the'papers, and started taking it. Within a few days I felt much better in general and some of the pains were gone. I continued with Konjola and the second week T was entirely well. All the pains had gone, and now I can walk without limping and I can use my right arm as good as anyone. I never have the headaches any more and sleep better than I have in years. In fact, I arm-feeling like I never had neuritis in my life. “Konjola. also benefited me in other ways, because I was subject to night rising, due to weak kidneys, and this trouble is entirely gone. I gladly indorse such a medicine to others.” The Konjola Man is at Hook’s Drug Store, Pennsylvania and Market Sts., Indianapolis, where he is daily meeting the local public and introducing and explaining the merits of this remedy. Konjola is sold by every Hook drug store in this city and all druggists throughout this section.—Advertisement.

‘THUMBS DOWN,’ ' MOB'S VERDICT (Continued From Pago 1) she tells her story on the witness stand. They bristle at her "rows of preserves”—they have no rows of preserves. And there’s a rippl* of indigatlon at her smug denial of smoking—who Is this sash weight widow to rebuke them? Laugh at Tears She mentions her child her “baby”—and bursts into tears—they laugh. And again when she mentions her fainting. A bitter laugh, cynical, non-believing, that might have grown into a roar or a hiss If bailiffs had not pounded tables. No sentimentalists here, with tender concern for the brave little wife and mother. They’re not to be taken in, these women. And, yet, somehow, even if the tears were faked (only God and her lawyers know), it was hideous to hear them laugh at a woman on trial for h<?r life. Yes, the mob Is ye(®g “Thumbs down!” but the mob is likewise on trial. Why are they here? Are they concerned merely in hearing the sordid details of illicit love, the hideous descriptions of a brutal murder. In short, is It just a chance for a little second hand sinning?

Public and press—are they sincere in their desire for swift and dignified administration of justice, or does a killing mean to us a chance for a Roman holiday?

A National Asset Railway service is one of our country’s most valuable assets. It fosters national unity and thereby stimulates both social and economic progress. Before the railroads came to serve our people, travel was difficult, communication was slow, and shipping hv land was highly expensive. Lack of efficient transportation impeded social progress, confined trade to small areas and restricted the development of our abundant natural resources. As railway construction progressed, these conditions changed. Travel became easy. Communication was speeded Distance no longer constituted a barrier to trade. The railroads found and developed new markets for producers, new sources of supply for consumers. Sectional lines gradually disappeared. The history of the Illinois Central System strikingly demonstrates the benefits of railway expansion. Several years ago this railroad began to operate fts original 700 miles of line, all of which lay within the borders of Illinois. Its principal stations were smaf and widely separated towns; for the most part its lines ran through the virgin prairie—a land uninhabited, untouched by plow, unchanged for centuries. Today the Illinois Central System operates more than 9,000 miles of line in fifteen prosperous states of the Middle West and the South-states in which good transportation has greatly stimulated the development of natural resources and of argicultural. industrial and commercial possibilities. This region now teems with activity, and it is constantly advancing in population and wealth. The development of railroads, the Illinois Central System among them, was an important factor in this veritable economic revolution. Such railway ment, in turn, however, depended upon another factor —the steady inflow of new capital for the improvement and expansion of railway property. For example, the Illinois Central System today represents an investment equal to the cost of thirty railroads such as #ie Illinois Central of seventy years ago. Moreover, its ability to render greatly improved service today is intimately related to its increased investment. Investment enabled the railroads in the past to lead the way in national development. Similar investments m the future will have further beneficial effects. We as a people must do our share to encourage such investjnent by indicating clearly our intention to safeguard railway credit. Constructive criticism and suggestions are invited. „ L. A. DOWNS, President, Illinois Central System. CHICAGO, May 2,1927.
