Roosevelt Turns Tables Colonel Roosevelt is irrepressible. v William Barnes, one time boss, is suing the former president of th United t? States for $50,000 for an alleged, libel, yet a perusal of the testimony offered at Syracuse and of the course of the trial seems to indicate that Roosevelt is the plaintiff and Barnes the defendant. Instead of being on the defensive, to quote a military expression, Roosevelt is on the offensive, and Barnes seems to be hard pressed to meet the vigorous attack of the aggressive man he is suing. . Perjbaps no case in American court annals shdwucha strange and unexpected reversal. When Barnes after introducing testimony that took only five minutes, rested his case" and Colonel Roosevelt took the chair in his own behalf, the case took' a sudden turn that has given

, a new surprise each day. Justice Andrews has permitted the defendant almost free hand in substantiating his statement, the basis of the suit, that Barnes was a "boss," and the colonel has taken full advantage of the opportunity. Mr. Ivons, chief counsel for Mr. Barnes, has given out the impression that his heavy artillery will get into action in the rebuttal testimony and that he pins his hopes for victory on that phase of the contest. It seems, however, that the plaintiff will have rough sledding to explain away the many damaging statements that Colonel Roose

velt has read into the record ' from the correspondence he had with Barnes and from the reports of legislative committees that investigated the Barnes regime in Albany. Roosevelt was satisfied when the first week of the trial closed, while Barnes undoubtedly was on the defensive and badly in need of reinforcements to bolster his position. Keeping the City Clean Clean up week will be here soon. The appeal

to co-operate In the movement already has been sounded. Hundreds of school children have been pledged to aid in the movement and give the city a cleaning from one end to the other. This is not the first time "clean up week" has been observed in Richmond. It has become an annual affair. This leads to the observation that the holding of a "clean up week" seems to indicate that the city during the other months of the year is lax in observing the old maxim "Cleanliness is next

to Godliness." One might infer, without being called a carping fault finder, that for eleven

months, rubbish and dirt accumulates and no effort is made to keep yards, alleys and premises free from dirt. , "Clean up week" ought not be an annual affair, but a daily occurrence. The sentiment of the enterprise ought be with us from morning till night, day in and out, so that when spring

arrives, it would not be necessary to set aside a

week for a general "cleaning up." The tidy housewife indulges in "house cleaning" once a year, but she, nevertheless, sweeps her" house thoroughly each week, and daily "goes over" it to remove dust and dirt. This plan ought be applied to municipal cleaning. If rubbish and old paper were destroyed at once and not be permitted to accumulate from season to season, there would be no need of "clean up week," and the city would be a "spotless town" from January 1 to December 31. Let the spirit of "clean up week" be with us every day in the year.

Want to Spend Gash? Agents Start Annual Invasion of Richmond

"With the advent of summer weather, Richmond, ' like many other Indiana cities and towns, is becoming a mecca for agents 'and salesmen. representing every conceivable article of manufacture, design and use. Scores of tbese men and women alight weekly from trains and interurban cars to canvass the city in search of trade. Already the vanguard has been received, hut this is composed of the "regulars," who make their, annual visits. With the close of schools and colleges, ambitious youths whose fathers fondly hope that their sons' salesmanship, ability .will lead them, to , sell sufficient wares to pay . next, year's , college expenses, take the road,. Wives Called to Door. Each proves himself , a Nemesis.'to the housewives of Richmond. . It', is she who wrathfully answers the bell or knock which has , interrupted the very work which she. has postponed for this occasion, knowing that at no other time she could complete it. She hastens to the door and glares at the one who has had the "audacity to call. Her stare has fastened itself on a young man of prepossesing appearance, who politely attempts to sell her the article he represents. The frown deepens and then slowly

fades away and perhaps after a few minutes' conversation even a smile takes its place. The opportunity to bargain is presented, and womanhood will ever assert itself. No power on earth could prevent her from at least

hearing this official representative of

"His Majesty, the King of Barterers." and besides he has such cute eyes. Finally the agent leaves and the housewife returns to her work, won

dering whether she won or lost if she purchased the article, and wondering if she had done right in refusing to

buy if she did not make the purchase Opportunity Knocks Again.

In an hour or two 6he has forgotten the incident, and ' another knock and

another agent and another opportunity

to get a bargain interrupts that partic

ular niece of labor which she has

striven so conscientiously to finish.

The result is the same. At least, she consents to hear him and usually buys.

And so it goes daily. On some days

she is hostess to as many as six agents and at nightfall she wonders why every canvasser who comes to Richmond should choose her particular house at which to call. Of only one thing is she satisfied whether she bought or not, she got the best of the bargain.

Thin Folks Get Fat On Three Meals a Day Specialist Explains Why Food Does

KING GEORGE KEEPS TAB ON WAR MOVES

LONDON, April 27. Few people here are aware of the intense interest which King George has taken in the war from the very opening of the hostilities. As a matter of fact he is in far closer contact with his army and navy than is the Kai6er.

In the suite at Buckingham palace

Most people who are thin and under normal weight eat heartily but get no ! increase in flesh, while plump, chunky ' folks of normal weight eat less than they do and keep stout all the time. , The ' underweight ones finally decide Nature Intended them to be thin, that the amount or nature of their food has nothing to do with flesh-making and that nothing can make them fatBut this is not so. A stout, strong, robust body can come alone from food nourishment. Food is the source of aU fat and if you are thin and underweight it is merely a certain indication that only a small portion of the flesh-making nourishment in your meals is reaching your blood and tissues. The assimilative functions ' of your stomach and Intestines are not working properly and the larger part of the food value is leaving your body as waste. To correct such a condition, to gain flesh, increase weight and get 100 per cent value from your food, a single Sargol tablet taken at each meal will work wonders. Sargol is a scientific

combination of six splendid aseimila-

Economy Happenings

USE FOOT MEASURE TO COMPUTE LOADS FOR ROAD BUILDERS

The outgrowth of a suit in the Wayne circuit court of Herbert Green against Sisk, Sprinkle & Level, in which the contracting firm alleged about 30 per cent of a bill for gravel was erroneous because of the small size of wagon beds in which the gravel was hauled, is an order from the state ccmmlssioner of weights and measures advising the use of cubic feet instead of cubic yards in figuring the capacity

of wagon beds. The following notice has been sent out to contractors: "It has come to the atention of the department that wagon beds used in hauling sand, gravel, rock and similar material commonly hold less in terms of cubic yards that the amount for hich the bill is rendered, or othervise do not comply with the terms of 'he contract under which the material Is hauled and sold. The use of a wagon bed which does not hold the stated amount of material is just as fraudulent as the use of a short half bushel measure or a short weight scale. "The most satisfactory method of estimating the capacity of wagon beds is in terms of cubic feet instead of cubic yards, and in no case should the load be measured except at the point of delivery. "Contractors, supervisors and all interested persons are requested to raeaer all wagon beds and to see that the load delivered is that for which charge ir made. lnspectors of weights and measures and all police officers are instructed to 6ee that the law requiring honest measures is obeyed."

of the fats, oils, sugars and starches of your food from the waste matter and prepares the former into rich, ripe, flesh-producing nourishment which the blood readily absorbs and distributes throughout the body. Weight increase usually begins within a very few days after Sargol Is used with meals. In my opinion two ordin

ary hearty meals eaten with Sargol la equal in flesh-making value to six ordinary hearty meals eaten without it. Try it, you people who are thin, run down and underweight, and see if I'm not right. You can buy Sargol from Leo H. Fihe, Richmond, or practically any druggist hereabouts and every package contains a positive guarantee of weight increase or money back. 'While also valuable as a treiment for nervous indigestion, it should not be used by people who do not wish to increase weight. Adv.

No man or woman who eats meat regularly can make a mistake by flushing the kidneys occasionally, says a well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which excites the kidneys, they become overworked from the strain, get sluggish and fail to filter the waste and poisons from the blood, then we get sick. Nearly all rheumatism, headaches, liver trouble nervousness, dizziness, sleeplessness and urinary disorders come from sluggish kidneys. . The moment you feel a dull ache in the kidneys or your back hurts or if the urine is cloudy, offensive full of sediment, irregular of passage or attended by a sensation of scalding, stop eating meat and get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any pharmacy; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast, and in a few days your kidneys will act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush and stimulate the kidneys, also to neutralize the acids in urine so it no longer causes irritation, thus ending bladder weakness. Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot injure; makes a delightful effervescent llthia-water drink which every one should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and active, and the blood pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney complications.
