WEST SIDERS WANT RELIEF FROMFLOQDS Revive Discussion of Need for Annexation of ‘Territory. Discussion of the need for annexation of territory along West Washington street from the present corporation line west to Lynnhurst drive has been revived with the recent rains which flooded basements in more than one hundred houses. Residents have talked of annexing the territory in recent years to permit construction of sewers to abate the recurring nuisance from heavy rainfall. Each time an element of citizens has been opposed to taking the territory into the city because of the expense. It is estimated that more than one hundred citizens in the vicinity of 4000 block West Washington street frequently are annoyed with water backing up and flooding basements because of the failure to provide sewers or ditches along the National road. Repeated efforts have been made to obtain temporary relief from the state highway commission and county authorities. Some property owners have bought pumps to keep basements dry. In many cases the water has risen several feet, destroying furnaces and other basement equipment. Paul R. Brown, county engineer, promised to look over the conditions with the county road superintendent and see if some relief can be provided. If storm sewers are not sea sable, ditches on both sides of the present level roadway would provide temporary' relief, it was argued. Councilman Herman Liebcr said city officials had agreed not to annex any more territory this year because of the additional burden on school authorities.

Napper. serving a. five-year robbery term in the penitentiary did not see why his imprisonment should stand in the way of a “little deal” now and then. Observing that his cellmate. Hugh Scurlock appeared discouraged over the prospects of serving a similar sentence, Napper generously offered to obtain a parole for the latter for the small sum of SSOO. He was merely “taking the rap for a friend.” he explained and really had great influence with the parole board. The melancholy prisoner obtained the money from a brother. Napper went on a buying spree. Guards I became suspicious of his sudden affluence and salvaged S3OO of Scurlock’s donation. In his cell today scurlock was even I more gloomy.

HE COULDN'T SLEEP, STOMACH HURT SO

Back Ached for Years. Finally Found Relief. Perfectly Well Now.

Friends of Mr. Henry Remillard. 294 No. Dearborn St., Bradley, 111., were recently surprised by his sudden return to good health. He explains it as follows: “For many years. I had chronic indigestion, and for the last six months I never knew what, it" was to have a good night's sleep, my stomach hurt so. I had gas and bilious attacks whenever I tried to eat. and my heart palpitated so I could hardly breathe. My kidneys were weak, and I had terrible headaches and pains in my back. I was constipated, felt tired and worn-out all the time, and was absolutely discouraged. But anew hope came to me the day I started taking Viuna. promptly gave me the help I heeded, and today I can hardly realise that I was ever so sick. My stomach never gives me a moment of trouble, and sound sleep is surely a blessed relief. The gas pains, biliousness. and shortness of breath are all gone. I am rid of the head-aches and back-ache, and feeling splendid in every way. I owe my health to Viuna. and can never hope to praise it enough.’’ There must be something different. something truly wonderful about a medicine which has promptly ended so many severe cases of back-ache, stomach trouble, kidnev pains and rheumatism. Try one bottle of Viuna under positive guaranty. $1 at druggists or mailed postpaid by Iceland Medicine Go.. IndianaDolis. Ind. VIUNA The Wonder Medicine
