away." Thus runs one of the old, old conga. " There is always a note of sadness and regret attached to the coming of gray hair prematurely, as if the hand of time were ruthlessly checking oft the pleasant hours of youth and "laughter. Remedy after remedy has been exploited for the restoring of gray hair to its natural color, but the one that has stood the test of years and proved the most pleasant and reliable, is HAY'S HAIR HEALTH. This timetried preparation succeeds where others fail. It is one of these safe and dependable remedies that it is a pleasure to recommend. HAT'S HAIR HEALTH restores gray hair by furnishing nourishment that revives and gives them new life and vigor. It is not a dye. It works pleasantly and effectively.

John Lehman Is making a strenuous effort to book, some good shows for Crown Point, and If the public show their appreciation by turning out a paying audience it will be possible to
arrange for some good atractions in the future. On next Monday evening, as a sort of a "feeler," Manager Leh- . man has booked the George Amustment
Co. (Inc.) in the powerful dramatization of Augusta E. Evans' great book, "St. Elmo." Mr. - Lehman guarantees this show to be one of the best traveling the circuits, and Crown Pointers should not miss the atraction. The Erie road held ,up. a crowd of forty or fifty people bound "for Gary or Hammond each day from one to two hours, by the lateness of its eastern afternoon train. Certainly there should be some way of obtaining recompense by law from a railroad that operate a time schedule and pays so little regard to it.

held on Wednesday. The body was
placed in a vault in Oak Hill ceme

so sudden, proved to be a great shock
not only to the members of his fam
ily, but also to his numerous friends.
The Gillmurray family have lived in
Whiting for the past eighteen years
During all this time Mr. Gillmurray held a very responsible position with
the S. O. Co., having been foreman for
a number of years. He could have re
tirea, being placed on the company s pension list, but wishing to continue his active duties yet for a few years, he refused to retire on the company's monthly allowance. His health con
tinued to be very good, and owing to
this fact his death was more surpris
ing. One fact worth mentioning was that a large number of the men who had worked for the deceased for years were present at the funeral and all
were deeply grieved at the sudden tak
ing away of their boss. Mr. Gillmurray was 65 years of age, and is survived by his wife, one daughter, Mrs. John Nyhoff, of Gary, and one son, F. A. Gillmurray of this city, all of whom have the sympathy of the community In their bereavement. The K. N. S.

They are: I. Laboyitch, I. Tipper, and Michael Conscieskl. Men who work nights at the steel mills and are compelled to sleep In the day time are annoyed very much
by the venders shouting their wares and goods for sale, thereby awakening the men who are attempting to get a few hours' sleep. South Water
street merchants and the Junk Dealers association of Chicago are fighting against the law. R. Blackburn, the White Sox's shortstop, is in South Chicago as the guest of Walter Leverens, with whom he became acquainted with while playing on the Wooster (Mass.) team.

New York Medical Authori
ties Claim Dyspepsia to be a Pre-Disposing Cause of Consumption The post mortem statistics of the big
New Tork hospitals show that some cases of consumption are due, at least Indirectly, to unchecked dyspepsia, especially when the victim was predisposed to tuberculosis.
Dyspepsia wears out the body and
brain. The weakened, irritable stomach being unable to digest food, the bodydoes not receive the required nourishment, anfl the victim become thin, weak
and haggard. As a result, the body becomes a fertile field in which the germs of disease may lodge and flourish.
Therefore, the person who permits
dyspepsia to progress unhindered Is
guilty of contributing toward the de
velopment of one of the most insidious and fatal diseases known to mankind.
' Dyspepsia may be completely eradicated if properly treated. ' We sell a remedy that we positively guarantee will completely relieve indigestion or dyspepsia, or the medicine used during the trial will cost the user nothing. This remedy has been named Rexall
