ACKNOWLEDGE IT

Hammond Has to Bow to the Inevitable Scores of Citizens Prove It. After reading the public statement of this representative citizen of Hammond given below, you must come to thia

conclusion: A remedy which cured i years ago, which has kept the kidneys In good health since, can be relied upon ' to perform the same work in other cases. Read this: Mrs. Maggie "Heckleman, 414 Truman avenue. Hammond, Ind.. says: "For years I suffered from kidney disease and lameness across my loins. At times I had severe attacks of backache and there was a dull, dragging-down pain through my kidneys. My back, was weak and in the morning when I got up, I felt so tired and languid I couli hardly begin my housework. Whenever I caught cold. It settled on my kidneys and made my condition worse. One day a friend advised me to try Doan'a Kidney rills and I accordingly got a box at Summers' Pharmacy. I soon found prompt relief and I continued to improve until I was cured. I am now enjoying good health." (Statement given March 4, 1907.) A Second Statement. On Feb. 19, 1910 when Mrs. Heckleman was interviewed, she said: "I still think highly of Doan'a Kidney Pills. I am pleased to confirm all I have ever said about this remedy." For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.

Ed Laws will be the target for the pop bottles in right field, while Henry Junker will make considerable real estate move in deep center anrl John Fojs will attempt fo check the onslaughts in left field. The courthouse team, all men good and true, have all been Introduced to an American league ball during the last two days and three of them came out of the ordeal without having a fit on the spot, although a doctor had to be called lat-

to toss 'em from the mound and Tom Grant has been subpoenaed to run after "era to backstop and carry 'em back to Shortridge. Judge -Kopelke will hold court at first base, while Charley Johnson will audit a few at second. Albert Maack will tax his ability at third

H. S. Jones will scoop 'em up at short. Judge Mc.Mahan will serve injunctions against any ball coming his way in left field, while John R Peterson will

it will be the gran Jest exhibition of i

ball ever witnessed. The

team Is composed of several players j who will make good in the Northern

Indiana league next year if given the

opportunity.

Mrs. John Bremer of this place has commenced action for divorce in the. courts against her husband, John Bremer, charging cruelty nd Incompatia-' bility and also asks that he be enjoined from selling property until the action Is decided.

will be assumed tomorrow, Sept. 1, no

tlce to the effect that the appointment has been received from the accounting

department, signed by S. W. Tracy au

Mr. Appleyard takes the position of

C. J. Lindemann, resigned, and the

change Is made following the taking

over of the Indiana Harbor Belt by new Interests. Mr. Lindemann still retains his position as freight claim agent for the New York Central lines, as formerly, but under the New York Central regime, his position embraced the Indiana Harbor Belt along with the other roads and branches owned by that corporation. Mr. Appleyard had practically the same responsibility before the change as he will have beginning tomorrow, but he was wltheut the title and other emoluments. His appointment is a distinct promotion, fnd his many friends throughout the Calu-

His cave-cabin Is located In the woods

near the B. & O. right of way. There

Is but one window in the place and when the visitors entered the hole they found the old man cn a bed. He had a coal fire to warm up the damp Interior.

When asked if he had food the aged

hermit replied that he had bread an-j tea. Asked whether he wanted any

thing he made a request that his visitors bring him to day some pickles and

some " fresh milk. Evans has been around the dunes for five or six years. In his youth he traveled around the wor'd. Boyfl saying that his peopls live in Boston the hermit will say nothing of his past life. Sometime ago he was sent to the poor farm but he escaped and returned to his mean habitation. Evans has e!ed out a precarious existence by secu.j?1ng food scraps at th

OH. GEE! WHO HAS THIS THIN6?

Jewell the accident happened. John

had the pajamas neatly tied up In paper parcel. The subject turned to

pajamas. "I have a very pretty suit ol pajamas in this paper," said the banker.

And then he proceeded to unwrap the

garments. The machine had just struck

the Pennsylvania right of way and

treacherous wind sweeping up the

tracks, seized the coat and made away

with It. It was swallowed up In th darkness.

Mr. Farvoid will give a suitable re

ward for the return of his treasure' bnt prefers to have it laundered before re

turning. However It might ease hi a

mind If the finder will call him up aft

his office and assure him at once of th

garment's recovery.

(Special to Thb Times.)

Indiana Harbor. Aug'. 31. Who nas

found a klmona of dainty material with white ground and striped In delicate baby blue, that looks as though it

might be the coat section of a suit of

pajamas?

The Jest seen of the garment it was

floating down the Pennsylvania tracks just off Michigan avenue, having been caught by the wind from an automobile that was going twice too fast to be stopped for such a mere trifle as even a whole suit of pajamas, howevtr

dainty of hue and silken of texture. The finder of the garment, if such there be, is erspectfully referred to the Citizens Trust and Savings bank, for the suit of pajamas from which it was lost belongs to none other than John R. Farvoid, .the president of the house.

COMPANY HAS MANY ORDERS Today's Gary steel news reveals ths fact that the American Bridge company Is well stocked with orders, enough ir. fact to keep the plant going for several months. Manager of the Gary plant. George M. Hunter, today stated that the working force would be increased 10 per cent when a new suit is placed In

opera! ion in October. The report that the increase would be within a few days is erroneous. Considerable activity is also reportel In the Kirk yards where there is now a congestion on account of the heavy volume of coke, coal and export steel traffic. " .
