ONE GERTAIMTV Some Hammond People Fully Realize it Now. When the back aches from Kidney fll. When urinary troubles annoy you, There's a certain way to find relief; A sure way to be cured. Doan s Kidney Pills will do it. Hammond people endorse this ciaim. Mrs. Maggie Heckclman, 414 Truffian avenue, Hammond, Ind., says: "For years I suffered from kidney disease. The pains in my back were almost unendurable, and there was a feeling that I can hardly describe, a sort f dull dragging, bearing down pain that at times was terrible. I had no strength, and in the morning when I first got up would be so tired, weak and languid that I could hardly do my housework. Whenever I caught a cold It would settle in my kidneys thus aggravating the trouble. A friend advised me to try Doan's Kidney Pills and I bought a box at Blcknell & Co.'s flrug store. Before I had taken half of the contents, I noticed a great improvement in my condition and I steadily grew better until at last I wm cured entirely. I have not had any re- ! turn of the trouble since, although the cure was performed several, months ago." For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.

WHERE DID THEY JHHI HOW Gary Young Men Win Out Waist - Buttoning Contest. Where did J. V. Montgomery and Edward Morgan, two young men of Gary, who are still single, learn to button shirtwaists. At a shirtwaist buttoning contest, held last night in the beautiful home of Mrs. W. TV. Dick. Mr. Montgomery buttoned a shirtwaist in 30 seconds. Mr. Morgan buttoned another one in 36 seconds. The contest was the feature of the evening but It was not without its disappointment. All the men. single and married, both expected to see a pretty damsel step into their midst and present herself as the subject upon whom the contest was to begin. The men were all expectation. Two Dummies to Work On. The moment arrived, the door opened and two dummies shrouded In shirtwaists were brought out. Two men at a time were put to ork and such a squirming as there as to get a button that looked as big as a wagon wheel through a hole seemingly as small as s needle's eye. Several times the waist ripped but there was no complaining woman's voice telling the men what clumsey fellows" they were. The strange part about the contest was that the single men outbuttoned the married men who were thought to be in good practice. Thirty seconds was considered a good record, but allowances had to be made that there were no interfering woman's hands to feel if the second button from the top had been buttoned, etc. There was other entertainment at the Dick home, which came in little surprise packages, and a peanut race with a spoon, which was on by W. C. Covington. A musical program as also carried out and later in the evening refresh ments were served. BACHELORSORGANIZED Rules Promise to Be Hard on First Man to Become a Benedict.

UNIQUEVIND0WD1SPLAY Lion Store Pharmacy Has a Unique . Window Display This Week. The display is featuring Orrine, the standard liquor habit cure, which this store has handled for a number of

years with much success. Four beautiful panels, handsomely illustrated, depict scenes of every day life, forcibly brought to the attention of passersby. who are interested In some one addicted to the curse of drink. One picture shows the workman be ing discharged by his employer with the statement, "Drinking men not wanted." Employer nowadays do not keep men on their payroll whose brains are not steady and whose heads are not clear. Drinking men are not reliable. Another scene shows the druggist endorsing Orrine and advising the customer that drunkenness is a disease and that Orrine will cure it. Orrine has the hearty endosement of dnfgsts selling It as they know it is doing much good in every vicinity. The next two scenes show, the man who has previously been discharged for drunkenness now reclaimed by the use of Orrine given to him secretly by his wife, who, standing by his side, ays: "I am the happiest woman in the world. Orrine cured my husband." Next, the man is shown at his work rawing full pay and in the picture of health. This display is a remarkable exhibit and Kaufman & Wolf state that much nterest is being taken In it and that they are glad to talk to anyone inter ested In Orrine, of which they have sold a large quantity and know of excellent results from its use in this city. Orrine costs but J1.00 a box and a complete cure costs less than the avrage drinking man will spend for liq uor for himself and friends in a Jay. It can be given secretly If desired and a cure Is not effected, the money is positively refunded. Be sure and see the display and get free booklet.

WAVEOFPROSPERITY STRIKES THE HARBOR

Foreigners Assured by Taft Election Send Home For Families. (Special to The Times). Indiana Harbor, Ind., Nov. 6. "Asurance by the election of ullam Howard Taft that the country is to experience four more years of exceptional prosperity, has resulted In the sendng of transportation to many families on the other side of the Atlantic. This was the statement made, to a Times representative yesterday afternoon by John Campian. foreign ex change manager at the Harbor State bank. Mr. Campian is in touch with the the larger portion of Indiana Harbor's foreign element, and consequently able to Judge their actions. He predicts that at least two hundred employes of the local mills all residents of this city will send to Hungary. Austria, Roumanla and Greece for their wives within the next three months. Many Inquiries Come In. Ever since Tuesday evening, accord ing to Mr. Campian, there has been a steady stream of Inquiries from the foreigners. Many have forwarded money to their families on the other side of the waters, while a greater number have merely instructed those waiting for information how to get to America. Pamphlets of the various teamshlp lines have been distributed freely among the inquirers, and it is the general expression that Indiana Harbor's population will be somewhat ncreased in the very near future. Mr. Campian declares that this is not an unusual feature of republican vie torles, for foreigners having flrmly ac cepted the necessity of republican legslation as a productive power of pros perity. To them it means higher wag es, and their simple mode of living per mits them to save goodly sums of money with which to pay the trans portation of their wives and children WHEN THEYWILL BEGIN January First Will Mark the Inaugural Dates for County Officers.

A BALD-HEADED WOMAN

Shorn of Her Crown of Beauty Loses in Love and Marriage. Hair is certainly most necessary to woman. Who could love and marry a bald headed woman? What charms could one array to offset such a dis figurement. A woman's goal is usually love and marriage. Her crowning glory is her hair. The loss of her hair mars her beauty, happiness and success. Vet. right here in Hammond, there are thousands of women who are neglecting or Injuring their hair to such an extent that it is only a matter of time when it will be utterly ruined. Many women destroy the beauty of their hair through thoughtlessness or Ignorance of certain facts. They use curling irons over-heated, or to excess. which destroys the natural oil of the hair, causing it to split, break and come out. They do not shampoo their hair often enough, or too often. They use soaps or preparations which contain ingredients positively harmful to the scalp and hair. As a result of such treatment, dand ruff is created, the hair loosens, loses color, falls out, and baldness com mences unless proper and prompt precautions are taken in time. Then again microbes and certain diseases bring about unhealthy scalp and hair condi tions. Almost anyone may rid themselves of dandruff and diseased scalp and hair if they will but use the right remedy. We have that remedy, and we will positively guarantee that It will either cure dandruff and. baldness or it will not cost the user anything. That's a pretty broad statement, but we will bark it and prove it with our own money. Rexall "93" Hair Tonic is the remedy that will grow hair and overcome all scalp and hair troubles. It 111 grow hair even on bald heads, unless all life in the hair roots has been extinguished, the follicles closed, and the scalp is glazed and shiny. It gets its name from the fact that It grew hair in 93 out of 100 cases, where it received a thoroughly hard, impartial and practical test. We want you to try Rexall "93" Hair Tonic at our risk. You surely cannot lose anything by doing so, while you have everything to gain. You had bet ter think this over, and then come in arfd see us about this offer. You will te wen repaid ror your visit to our store. Kaufman & Wolf, Hammond, Ind. Two Sizes, 50c and $1.00. Ancients Were Wise.

TADT'S Hammond, Ind.

SMITH SHOWS PRISONER LENIENCY Andrew Johnson, Whiting Man Charged With Forgery, Sent to Crown Pt. (Special to The Times.) Whiting, Ind., Nov. ti. The case of Andrew Johnson, of East Chicago, came up before Mayor Fred J. Smith yesterday morning. John was given thirty days in Crown Point. Johnson Is charged with trying to pass a bogus check on the firm of Migatz & Stleglitz of the Hub Clothing store. He went into the store and offered the check for $24 in payment for goods he had purchased. When the check was given to Mr. Stieglltz. he at once doubted its validity and called an of ficer to place Johnson under arrest. Did Xot Realise Enormity of It. The case could not be called one of forgery, but seemed to be one of extreme Ignorance, which was easily seen by the way the check was made out. The amount and the name of J. A. Patterson, an East Chicago attor ney, was all on the same line. The check was on off the Firt National Bank of East Chicago. When ques tioned as to where he had received it. Johnson said he found the check on the street. He answered all the questions put to him In & straightforward manner, and all in the court room sym pathised with him Instead of censuring him ii, is usually the case in an affair of this kind. Has a Good Reputation. The man's past reputation was look ed up, and it was found that his repu tation was the best, and thdjt he had been employed in the acid department of the Standard Oil company for eleven years. He is married and has a wife and four small children. John was taken to Crown Point this morning where he will be given an opportunity to ponder over his wrong doings for thirty days. Another freak election bet will be paid much to the amusement of those who happen to be on Broadway tomorrow night. Edward Morgan will wheel George Sitker down the street for six blocks and return. It is expected a large crowd will be on hand to cheer Morgan and lighten the burden of his toilsome journey. The bet was the result of a wager several weeks ago when the two men met and started to discuss the chances of Bryan and Taft. Each were confident over the election of their candidate and as a result the bet was made. IF YOU ARE BCSY, TRY TO FORGET A . LOT OF THINGS AND REMEMBER THE WANT API "52
