THE EVILS OF CONSTIPATION Constipation is one of the main reasons why the average human life is below 40 years. Leaving waste material in the body, poisons the system and blood and makes us liable to sick headaches, biliousness, nervousness and muddy skin. When you note these symptoms, try Dr. King’s New Life Pills. They give prompt relief, are mild, non-griping in action, add tone to your system and clear the complexion. At your drugist, 25c. —Advt.

Sloan’s Liniment for Rheumatism The pain goes so quickly after you apply Sloan’s Liniment for rheumatic pains,, neuralgia, toothache, lumbago, sprains, and its so easy to use.

Keep a bottle in the house and get prompt relief, not only from all nerve-pains but from bruises, strains, sprains, over-exercise and all external aches. At your druggist, 25c, 50c, $1. —Advt.

A fire which started aboqt 2:30 o’clock Friday morning, June 1, burned the large two-story frame building owned by Mrs. C. M. Rice and occupied on the lower floor by Dr. Rice’s office and Jay Weaver's barber shop. The second story had been used the last two years as a school room. The origin of the fire seems-fcTbe a mystery, as there was no fire in the doctor s office stove or in the barber shop during the day or night of the fire. We understand the building was partially covered by insurance, but the contents of the doctor’s office ‘and Weaver’s shop were a total loss. Fortunately for the rest of the town the wind, what little there was blowing,, was from the northwest and carried the heat and flames away from nearby buildings. Whether the building will be rebuilt we were unable to learn at this time.

Croup, Whooping-Cough Relieved Children’s diseases demand preparedness. When the child wakes yon at night, gasping and strangling for breath, how thankful you are to have Dr. Bell’s Pine-Tar-Honey at hand. This effective remedy loosens the mucous and permits free and natural breathing. Its soothing balsams heal the irritated membrane and arrests further inflammation. Pleasant to take. Keep Dr. Bell’s Pine-Tar-Honey in the house for all colds and bronchial troubles. At your druggist, 25 c.—Advt.

appointment here Sunday. Owing to the fact that a good many from here attended the Sunday school convention at Brushwood there were but a very few at the morning service. We are still keeping watchful waiting for signs of a new school house in our town for our next term of school. The time to erect a new one in time for school is short, so somebody will have to get busy soon. Lew Moffitt, who had been employed as ticket agent at Gary for the interurban, enlisted in the infantry last week and went to Fort Wayne Monday, took the examination and went on to Ohio where he will take training. We have been having plenty of high winds and rain the past week. A very heavy rain fell both Monday and Tuesday nights and now we are saying: "Too wet to work in the fields and the weeds are growing pretty rapidly.” Small grain generally never looked better at this time of year than it does no*.
