. number of deaths Increased, being 889 against 716 yesterday. . Reports made public last night by l the public health , service show that I outside of Massachusetts the epidemic lis severe throughout New England. : Not a Elngle state east of the Mississippi is clear of the disease and In most of the coast states from Maine to Florida conditions are serious. War Work Curtailed. The number of cases reported also is increasing in Oregon, Washington and California, while the malady has appeared in all mountin states and is epidemic in most of them.

System In Condition to Resist the Hardships of Winter. It is the strong-blooded men and women who are vigorous and healthy in winter, and who are not inconvenienced by vthe cold, wet days.

Wet feet don't bother them, sudden changes cause no inconvenience, and even when a cold is "caught," because

of contact, in a close, stuffy room, with

some one already infected, the trouble seldom lasts over a day or two. This highly desired state of health is brought about by having rich, pure blood uncontaminated by Impurities of any kind. You may possibly think your blood is all right you are not troubled by outward signs. Yet you have felt tired and languid, you have lost some sleep or had some minor ailments at times, but you regard yourself as in "fairly good condition physically." This may be true, but you should take nothing for granted, you should not "guess" that you are all right. The thing to do is to make yourself right by taking a good blood tonic and invigorator such as S. S. S. It is the best known blood tonic on the market today. There is hardly a man, wom-

heard of it It has helped to restore many people to health. It has brought relief in thousands of cases of blood disorders during the past fifty years. S. S. S. is a standard treatment for all blood troubles. It is a true blood tonic, that purifies and brings new vigor and new life to the blood stream. It is guaranteed to be pupely vegetable, to contain no mercury or other mineral drugs, but to be made from herbs and roots carefully selected for their known medicinal properties. For chronic sores, ulcers, catarrh, rheumatism, eczema, psoriasis, salt rheum, tetter, acne and other such diseases as are due to infected blood, S. S. S. acts quickly and satisfactorily. It counteracts the germs and poisons, cleanses the blood of att-onhealthy accumulations, literally washes all foreign matter from the blood and renews its life-giving properties. Be sure to take S. S. S. this winter. The renewal of vigor that it will give

you is well worth while. One thing i

you can be sure of and that is If you take S. S. S. you will be benefitted.

Balance in State Treasury, Oct. 1,1916, under Democrats was $2,149,756.44 Present Balance in State Treasury under Republicans, is - - - $3,700,161.36 On October 1, 1916, when the Democratic Party was in power in Indiana there was a balance in the state treasury of $2,149,756.44. Since that time, under a Republican State Administration, the state revenue tax levy has been reduced from 7 cents on each $100 to 4 cents and the total state tax levy has been reduced from 40.1 cents on each $100 to 39.6 cents. Since that time the nation has entered war and the cost of everything has mounted at an alarming rate

However, at this time, with a Republican State Administration in control, there is a balance of $3,700,161.36 in Indiana's treasury and. in addition th? state has a salable supply of binder twine on hand at the Indiana State Prison that will add $599,000 to this handsome balance. If the tax payers of Indiana approve this record and want a continuation of this business administration of their affairs, the way to get it is to
