HEAT WAVE KILLS 17 IN MIDDLE WEST Whole Country Swelters With Mercury Above 90 and No Relief in Sight.

CHICAGO, 111., June 9 Practically the entire country from the Pacific to the Atlantic and from Lake Superior

to the Gulf of Mexico sweltered today In its third successive day of above ninety degrees temperature. Three deaths have already been recorded in Chicago, as a result of the heat and there were many prostrations there as well as in numerous other sections of the country. Central Illinois, Indiana, Pennsylvania, and all the gulf states, and even northern Michigan were parched in temperatures that ranged as high as ninetyeight. The weather bureau held out little pr no prospect of relief except that which might come from thunder showers in scrattered territory. Sporadic storms were reported from sections of Minnesota, Western Wisconsin, and the Dakotas. Considerable damage was done to property and crops by lightning, high winds, and torrential rain. FIVE DEAD. PITTSBURG, June 9. The temperature reached ninety before 11 o'clock on top of the highest building in the city. Five deaths and a dozen prostrations have been the toll thus far during this heat wave. NINE IN LOUISIANA. NEW ORLEANS, La., June 9 Nine rersons are dead and five suffered from serious injuries as a result of the intense heat that prevailed today over Louisiana and Mississippi. Eight persons have attempted suicide within the past twenty-four hous here and scores have been prostrated. TWO AT HAMMOND. HAMMOND. Ind., June 9. Peter Reinert, a carpenter, collapsed from ttie heat here today and died shortly afterwards. His was the second death hpre in twenty-four house resulting from the torrid weather.

LEE NUSBALIM HEADS BOARD TD ADVISE CITY OFFICIALS

COMMITS SUICIDE. LOUISVILLE, Ky., June 9 "Good bye, we will all go to heaven when we hit the ground," shouted Julius Bronston, a janitor, as he leaped from the sixth floor of the Kenyon building here today. He was dead when picked up. Physicians believe he became temporarily insane, from the intense heat. NO RELIEF COMING. With no relief in sight, with the mercury standing at 92 degrees at noon and with the sun sizzling down from on high, Richmond sweltered Sigain today. Electrical supply houses and hardware stores were kept busy supplying the demand for electric fans. Business men, clerks and professional men, shed their coats and worked as little as possible in their vain efforts to keep cool. About the time the average citizen begins to convince himself it is not so uncomfortable, after standing in range of an electric fan for five minutes, a well-meaning friend comes along with the remark, "Gee, ain't this a scorcher." Immediately prespiration breaks out and courses down his friend's face, forcing him to the cover of the fan again. Although the other drouth and heat wave was broken by a light shower, the unusual heat lias again baked the ground, causing farmers to "worry again. Genera! advice of physicians for hot weather is to avoid meats, to worry as little as possible, avoid violent exercise during th' hot part of the day, and to drink plenty of cold water, not ice water. No prostrations have been reported in the city although persons working near ovens and furnaces are suffering a great deal.

The mayor's advisory board, if you please not his "kitchen cabinet," as it has been referred to held its first meeting last evening and perfected an organization. Ten of the twelve mem

bers who have been selected by vari

ous civic organizations represented, were present. The Fairview Improvement association has not selected its representatives. Lee B. Nusbaum, of the Commercial club, was elected president; Miss Bertha Larsh, representing the Federation of Women's Clubs, secretary, and Adolph Blickwedel, of the South Side Improvement association, vice president. Other members who attended were G. M. Guyer and C. C. Hubard, West Richmond Improvement association; Charles Kirk and James Coyle, Central Labor Uunion; Mrs. F. W. Stephens, Federation of Women's Clubs; Isaac Winburn and Dr. W. W. Anderson, Citizens' Union (colored). The absentees among the appointed members were Folger Wilson, Commercial club, and B. A. K-nnepohl, South Side Improvement association. The board will hold its regular meetings the second Monday evening of each month in conjunction with the meeting of the mayor's cabinet. Objects to Name. After the organization had been perfected Mrs. Stephens made the suggestion that the newspaper title for their board, the "kitchen cabinet," was not very appropriate, whereupon one of the guilty newspaper men suggested that the organization be known as the mayor's advisory board, which suggestion was complied with. At the opening of the meeting Mayor Uobbins informed the board members he desired no part in the conduct of the board's affairs, and his purpose was to be to let it' have a clear field in all work it undertakes. It was then definitely decided that the organization was to serve as a. channel by which the desires and the suggestions of the people in all parts of the city would be brought to the attention of the city officials, and that the board would discuss any question of public benefit it so desired, and then advise with the mayor and the other city officials. A few subjects were brieflv discussed before the board adjourned to meet with the mayor's cabinet. Mrs. Stephens said that she thought some use should be made by the city of the splendid energy of the children during the vacation period. They should be taught to take more interest in civic matters, she thought. She was of the opinion that their services could be secured in work pertaining to the beautification of the city. Suggest T ree Planting. Mr. Hubbard suggested that a treeplanting campaign would be a very profitable undertaking on the part of the city. Many citizens, he said, would be willing to pay the city the cost price of planting trees in front of their residences, and he said there are any number of vacant lots in front of which young trees could be set out. He be

lieves it would be possible to plant ten thousand trees In Richmond. Mr. Hubbard also complimented the county commissioners for the way they had beautified the court house grounds, but said that some of the buildings on Main street opposite the court house cheapened its magnificance. He said the Robinson company officials had informed him they would gladly sell their warehouse property on Main street if the city would take it off their hands, but he did not suggest what use the city could make of this property. Miss Larsh made a very practical suggestion of placing the street name signs in conspicuous places for the benefit of strangers. During the recent automobile invasion, she said, tourists had much difficulty in locating streets, because the street signs were placed in the sidewalks instead of in conspicuous places.

LODGE DECORATES

MILTON, Ind., June 9. Sunday was a red-letter day in the calendar for Bentonville. In the morning the Chrlstion church Bible school met at the usual hour, and owing to so much going on the attendance dropped to 78. The collection amounted to $2.01. In the afternoon the Soldiers and Odd Fellows' decoration services were observed, and a large crowd was present. The main feature was th address of Rev. Cary McCullum. His talk was along patriotic lines, and was concluded with a short address to the Odd Fellows. The music was furnished by the Falmouth orchestra and a double quartet composed of Loren Miller, Thomas Saldwell, Charles Freeman, Homer H. Doneker, Will Sheets, Mrs. Abram Kinder, Mrs. Loren Miller, Mrs. Charles

Freeman and Mrs. Porter Myers. In i the evening the Bible school of the

Christian church observed Children s day at the township hall. The building was filled to capacity and many were unable to get in. The exercises were very interesting.

A Message to Thin, Weak, Scrawny Folks An Easy Way to Gain 10 to 30 Lbs. of Solid, Healthy, Permanent Flesh. Thin, nervous, undeveloped men and women everywhere are heard to say, "I can't understand why I do not get fat. I eat plenty of good, nourishing food." The reason is just this: You cannot get fat, no matter how much you eat, unless your digestive organs assimilate the fat-making elements of your food instead of passing them out through the body as waste. What is needed is a means of gently urging the assimilative functions of the stomach and intestines to absorb the oils and fats and hand them over to the blood, where they may reach the starved, shrunken, run-down tissues and build them up. The thin person's body is like a dry sponge eager and hungry for the fatty materials of which it is being deprived by the failure of the alimentary canal to take them from the food. The best -way to

! overcome this sinful waste of flesh i building elements and to stop the leakI age of fats is to use Sargol, the reicently discovered regenerative force j that is recommended so highly by phy- ! sieians here and abroad. Take a little

Sargol tablet with every meal and notice how quickly your cheeks fill out and rolls of firm, healthy flesh are deposited over your body, covering each bony ancle and projecting point. Your druggist has Sargol, or can get it from his wholesaler, and will refund your money if you are not satisfied with the gain in weight it produces as stated on the guarantee in each package. It is inexpensive, easy to take and

! highly efficient. Caution: While Sargol has producj ed remarkable results in overcoming nervous dyspepsia and general stomach troubles, it should not be taken j unless you are willing to gain ten

pounds or more, for it is a wonderful flesh-builder. Leo H. Fihe.
