Mrs. Watson recently made the following ( ■statement to the Konjola Man: , “Konjola proved to me that it is a medicine of merit, and I am thankful for the wonderful results I got from this new medicine. Over a vear ago I underwent an opera- . lion, and my old strength and vitality did not return as I thought it would. I didn't have any strength, and was always nervous. I tired easily, and felt far from the way I knew I should. I tried medicines and treatments galore, everything that was recommended, but never was able to get any results that amounted to anything. I was growing discouraged. "I had about lost faith in medicine. but a friend urged me to try Konjola so strongly that I finally did. Right from the start I noticed improvement, and it is really remarkable the way this new medicine has built me up! I have used m all. fifteen bottles, and I feel that I am safe in saying that this new medicine kept me out of the hospital. I am again enjoying good : health. I am much stronger and ' have more vitality. My nerves are • calm. Konjola did what all the ' others failed to do—it restored me to health! I hope that my experience will help others to find relief from their health troubles!” Konjola is not designed to give nere temporary relief, but to banish *he very cause of the trouble. A Enhance "to prove its merit is all it r The Koniola Man is at Hook's De- : rcndable Drug Store. Illinois and Washington streets.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

CITY HELD SAFE FROM CHEMICAL ICE GASMENACE Health Officials Say Ban on Methyl Chloride Use Unnecessary Here. City and state health authorities in Indianapolis said today there was no occasion here for a ‘‘refrig-erator-gas scare” such as has gripped Chicago. Believing every precaution has been taken in electric refrigeration installations here to prevent methyl chloride gas deaths, Indianapolis health authorities do not contemplate the stern measures invoked at Chicago where the escaping gas caused three more fatalities Tuesday. There, seventy-five thousand refrigerating systems using methyl chloride gas were ordered out of operation by the coroner while the city council moved to ban the use of methyl chloride gas as a refrigerating agency. Methyl chloride gas Is no more deadly than illumination gas but it has no odor and can not be detected when escaping, doctors say. “If investigation discloses that the matter takes a public health angle in Indianapolis the same methods adopted in Chicago should be followed here. We have had no trouble here, but the health department has taken cognizance of the Chicago situation,” Dr. Herman G. Morgan, city health officer, said. Building Commissioner Wiliiam F. Hurd stated that there are no regulations in the building code pertaining to electrical refrigeration systems. Dr. William F. King, state health officer, declared the majority of electric refrigerators in Indianapolis do not use the methyl chloride gas. “Nothing has come to my attention either personally or officially that would warrant regulation. We would not hesitate to adopt regulations if we find that, Chicago is not ‘grand standing,’ ” Dr. King said.

MURRAY BODY PLANT STRIKERS RENEW RIOTS More Than 100 Cops Are on Guard to Protect Detroit Plant. DETROIT, Mich., July 19.—Rioting at the plant of the Murray Body Corporation broke out again this afternoon when seventy-five of seven hundred workers striking against adjusted wage schedules threw rocks at police guards and seriously injured patrolman Henry J. Hardy, who was taken to receiving hospital. Another policeman was less seriously hurt. Four of the labor men were arrested before the strikers were dispersed. Trouble started when police took banners away from the strikers. More than one hundred patrolmen today guarded the plant. Three hundred police quelled a near riot late Thursday when a crowd of 2,000 resented an attempt to disperse picketers. Several persons, including two company officials, were injured. More than one thousand men walked out when wages for work done on a piece basis were reduced in various instances. The strikers’ demands for $1 an hour and an eight-hour day were to be presented formally to the corporation after a mass meeting today. In the event their petition is rejected, the strikers say they will ask the rest of the 14,000 workers in the plant to join them.
