IJEIVS OF THE COUNTY SEAT
From the Diary of SL Lence
Since they're bin a-placin' so menny obetructsh'uns in th way o" a successful practice o' th legal perfeshun In Lake county resently. Noncompus Mentes, Crown Point's legal lite an' able practlshuner, ses as how he's a ;oln' ter take a change o' venue frum th practis O law t' th' Junk business. Noncompas ses they'se a payin a good 'price fer brass at present, of which he's got plenty an' of the best quality. Taking Much Interest. "l Crown Pointers are nearly as Interested In the outcome and trying; of the Gary blind pig cases as those who .come daily from Gary, and quite a 'number of its cltlsens and business men are. regular attendants at the trials. "Whether they are Interested only In the legal phases of the trial or are learning1 the up-to-date names for the drinkables drank In Gary so that they -will know what to call for and to be -at sea when a visit to the steel town Is made Is not known. But . the fact -remains that numbers of them can call for a peruna cocktail, and a "white stuff tixz with all the eclat of their more practiced Gary brethren.
Settlement Affected. A settlement is being made In the .business tangles of the Hamilton Life Insurance company, who recently opened their main offices at this place, and from reports the local men who are stockholders in the company will rid themselves of their holdings at about part and the office will be reopened here by the new concern to take charge of the business affairs.
Rev. Both will preach his farewell aernfbn to his Crown Point congregation at the Lutheran church next Sunday, after which the popular pas".tor will leave for his new charge In Chicago. Rev. Beester of North Judon has been called to the pastorate
here and has accepted this call. Crown
(been highly successful and the fam
ily has endeared Itself In the hearts of the congregation.
The presentation of St- Elmo last
night at Central Music Hall proved '
be one of the best atrtactlons that nas appeared in Crown Point for some time. The dramatization of Augustus E. Evans' popular novel, was rendered in excellent manner by a good cast and the large audience assembled to hear the play were well satisfied and
expressed appreciation of Manager Leh
man's efforts to secure for Crown Point
playgoers a better grade and class of
attractions. The attendance last even
ing is evidence tlfat Crown Pointers will
attend shows of merit.
It was reported here yesterday that
Ernest "Wilson has sold his dray busi
ness to Fink and Joern. Mr.. Joern will move his family here from Chicago and become a resident of Crown
Point, where he was formerly employed
some years ago. The new firm will no
doubt make a success of the business as they are old and experienced hands
at the business.
Charles "Wolferman, it is roprted, will
change the location of his concrete in
dustry, moving from his present quar
ters in the Seberber building, south of the Panhandle tracks, to the north of
the Schroeder elevator, north of the
tracks.
The roads between Crown Point and Gary are kept .hot by the 'sheriffs and bailiffs on trips to subpoena witnesses and do other legal work connected with
the trying of the blind pig cases. An
Interurban line would have reaped
quite a harvest had one been in exist
ence between Crown Point and Gary
during the last two weeks.
The "Woman's Study club met at the
Library assembly room yesterday aft
ernoon and listened to a well prepared and Interesting papers by its members,
Mrs. Kate Ott and Mrs. Howell V. Par
ry.
Crown Point Is now free from all contagious diseases, and although we have had two epidemics of diphtheria and scarlet fever the fatalities have
been nil, which la considered lucky.
Attorney Ballard of Gary transacted
legal business here yesterday.
It begins to be evident that some of
the official Garyites do not look with
any special favor upon Crown . Point and Gary being connected by an Inter-
Point neoDle are loathe to see Rev. Both
and family leave, as his work here has urban line In the near future.

IW GO
ES INDIGESTION. GAS
1
AND OTHER STOMACH MISERY
As there Is. often some one In your family who suffers an attack of Indigestion or some form of Stomach trouble, why don't you keep some Dlapepsin In the house handy. This harmless blessing will digest anything you can eat without the lightest discomfort, and overcome a sour, gassy Stomach five minutes after. Tell your pharmacist to let you read the formula plainly printed on these 80-csnt cases of Pape's Dlapepsln. then yon will readily see why it makes Indigestion, Sour Stomach, Heartburn and other distress go in five minutes and relieves at once such miseries as Belching of Gas. Eructations of sour undigested food,' Nausea, Headaches, Dizziness Constipation and other. Stomach disorders. -
Some folks have tried so long to find relief frm Indigestion and Dyspepsia
or an out-of-order stomach with the
common every-day cures advertised
that they have about made up their minds that there is something else wrong
or believe theirs is a case of Nervous-,
gastritis. Catarrh of the Stomach or
Cancer.
This, no doubt, is a serious mistake. Tour real trouble is. what you eat does
not digest; Instead, it ferments and
seura, turns to acid. Gas and Stomach poison, which putrefy in the digestive
tract and intestines and, besides, pol son the breath with nauseous odors. A hearty appetite, with thorough di gestion, and without the slightest dls
comfort or misery of the Stomach. Is
"waiting for you as soon as you decide
to try Papers Dlapepsln.

For Constipation
A Medicine That Does Not
Cost Anything Unless It Gives Satisfactory Relief.
If you suffer from constipation in
any form whatever, acute or chronic,
we will guarantee to supply you medi
cine that we honestly believe will effect
permanent relief if taken with regular
Ity and according to directions for a
reasonable length of time. Should the
medicine fall to benefit you to your en
tire satisfaction we promise that it
shall cost you nothing.
No other remedy can be compared
with Rexall Orderlies for the easy
pleasant and successful treatment of
constipation. The active medicinal in gredients of this remedy, which is odor
less, tasteless and colorless. Is an en
tirely new discovery. Combined with
other valuable ingredients, it forms a
preparation which is incomparable as a
perfect bowel regulator, intestinal in vlgorator and strengthener. Rexall Or
derlies are eaten like candy, and are
notable for their gentle and agreeabl
action. They do not cause griping or
any disagreeable effect or inconven
lence, and may be taken at any time,
day or night.
We particularly recommend Rexall
Orderlies for children and for delicate or aged persons, because they do not contain anything injurious. Unlike other preparations, they do not create a habit, but instead they overcome the
habits acquired through the use of or
dlnary laxatives, cathartics, and harsh
physic, and remove the causes of con
stlpatlon or irregular bowel action that
are not of surgical variety.
We want you to try Rexall Orderlies
at our risk. We know of nothing that
will do you so much good. They are
prepared in tablet form in two sizes
36 tablets 25 cents, and 12 tablets 10
cents. Remember you can obtain Rex
all Remedies to Hammond only at our store, The Rexall Store. Lion Store
