ELECTRIC LIGHT RATE INCREASE IS HELD OVER

City Council Postpones Decision in Matter Until Investigation Can Be Made. After much unpleasant' discussion over the change In rates asked by the Municipal Light plant, city council voted last night to postpone the matter until next council meeting In order to give the councllmen an opportunity to make Investigations. The changes asked for by the plant virtually mean to the city an Increase of one per cent In the petition which the city proposes to submit to the public service commission some of the present rules and regulations of the company are Btruck out and some new ones are inserted. A new section is added to the present constitution concerning a guarantee for applicants. An insertion is vmade which provides for an additional 10 per cent charge for non-payment of bills. The section which reads that a discount of one per cent per kllowat shall be given on all bills before they become delinquent will be eliminated. The section which provides a discount of one-half cent for prompt payment of bills and the section which provides for an additional charge of 20 per cent for furnishing direct current for power will be struck out. The reason for the latter elimination Is that the city does not Intend to furnish direct current , After the petition had been read and explained to the council by City Attorney Byram Robblns, Councilman

ord rose and proceeded to talk at length about the unreasonableness of ihe petition, and expressed his opposi

tion to tno raise in rates. Mr. Ford criticised the present administration

of the plant and lauded the former administration, but admitted that the

former management of the plant did not know, any more about electricity than the present one. . The matter of the Ashe property was brought aaln into the limelight. Approve Telephone Petition. Councilman Thatcher stated that someone out in Colorado Springs said that the people In Richmond had more money than sense, because he said the light plant had purchased the electrical plant of the Light, Heat and Power for $150,000. when the- company would have taken $50,000. There was a great deal of objection among the councllmen to the change in rates. The matter was postponed until next council meeting when all of the councllmen will be expected to have made thorough, intelligent Investigation. Council voted to Join the Richmond Home Telephone company In a Joint petition to the Public Service Commission of Indiana for an increase in

rates. - City Attorney Robblns went into detail to explain the present rates and the franchise which the company holds.,.'.";". The meeting was opened by Councilman Ford who brought up the matter of the water fountain which had been moved from Eighteenth street. Mr. Ford Implied that the removal of the fountain was spite work on the part of the Board of Public Works. Ford moved that the board be compelled to move the fountain back and Councilman White seconded the motion. - At this conjunction the city attorney asked for a few remarks. He made plain to council the power of the board and of the council in this particular matter. He said that the board had acted In a manner which they considered just and reasonable and in the best interests of the persons con cerned. In this . particular Instance Mr. Robblns stated that council had only the power of reommendatlon. Ford withdrew his motion.

Nothing you can do will so effectually protect you against the Influenza or Grippe epidemic as keeping your organs of digestion and elimination active and your system free from poisonous accumulations. Doctors and health authorities

everywhere are warning people of

ine danger or constipation, and

advising, and urging everyone to see that the bowels and other eliminative organs act freely and recrularlv.

Ordinary laxatives. Dartres and

cathartics, salts, oik. calomel and the

like, are good enough to clean out the system, but do not strengthen the weakened organs; they do not build op vitality. Why don't you begin right today to overcome constipation ana get your system in each shape that you can feel

reasonably sure of resisting disease. You can do so if you will juct get a 25c. box of Nature's Remedy (NR Tablets) and take one each aight for a while. NR Tablets do much more than merely cause . pleasant, easy bowel

There are any number of people who for years have been sick and ailing, weak, run down and in a poor physical condition who will be surprised even dumbfounded to learn that their trouble has just been an acid -etomach, which is merely another name for what doctors call superacidity. Yet it is now positively known that acid-stomach is the cause ot a very large number of diseases. Excess acid in the etomach prevents proper digestion and assimiliation, thus causing the blooa to become thin and impoverished as a result of which people become sallow-skinned, emaciated and anemic. Excees acid causes irritation all along the intestinal tract -irritation so severe and aggravating as to frequently result in catarrh and even cancer of the stomach. Excess acid causes stomach and intestinal fermentation, producing poisons which, absorbed into the blood and carried throughout the By stem, cause auto-intoxication, insomnia, nervousness, irritability, mental depression, melancholia, dizziness, vertigo and, often times, valvular heart trouble and heart laiiure. . Yes, many people will be greatly surprised to learn that such a long train of physical ailments can be traced directly to an acid-stomach. But there is no need tor surprise. Think what acid mouth does to the teeth. The acid eats right through the enamel the hardest substance in the human Dody. And that is exactly what makes teeth rot and decay. No wonder, then, that excess acid in the Etomach plays such havoc; causes so much illhealth and misery makes so many people weak and ailing unfit for either work or pleasure and brings on premature old age. So often you have heard the remark: "'I've taken all sorts ot tonics and medicines and tried many different doctors but nothing seems to help me. Nine times out of ten the person making such a remark has an acid-stomach. And until the excess acid is removed, nothing WILL help. Remove that excess acid and the results are truly wonderful. Health and strength return almost like magio. You can now rid your stomach of its excess acid. A wonderful modern medicine called E ATONIC literally wipes it out It does the work easily speedily and thoroughly It makes "the stomach pure, sweet, coot and comfortable It helps you get full strength out of every mouthful of food you eat; and unless you DO get full strength from your food you cannot enjoy robust vigorous health.
