Elect School Supervisor. Reuben Koch, of We.t Sonora, was ' .-Jeclrd supervisor of the Preble county school district in a meetins of the presidents of the school boards of the district. Until recently the county had two supervisory districts and a supervisor in each district, but because of the fact that one less than the required number of school teachers employed in one district, as prescribed by the school laws, the two districts were merged. Dairy Prices High. In comparing butter and egg prices in Dayton with prices in Eaton, a Dayton morning newspaper presented inaccurate figures in its comparisons, which fact created no little amount of local comment. The comparisons were made upon Tuesday s quotations. The paper said creamery butter in Dayton was retailing at 5S cents a pound, while in Eaton, identical brands were retailing at 40 cents a pound. The fact of the matter is creamery butter was retailing in Eaton at f8centK a pound, the same as in Dayton. It was represented that eggs in Dayton were retailing at 48 cents a dozen while in Eaton the retail price was 39 cents a dozen. Eggs were retailing here on that day at 42 cents a dozen. Prices obtained from several local dealers showed they were paying 40 cents for country butter and retailing it at 45 cents a pound. Extra good country butter was retailing at 50 cents, as against a buying price of 45 cents. However, country butter is very scarce. The dealers say they were paying 39 cents for eggs and selling them at 42 cents a dozen. When asked what makes or brands of creamery butter is sold in Eaton, several dealers said they knew of only one brand that made by the Eaton Creamery company, local concern. Will Address League. Miss Edwlnna Morrow, of Jackson township, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. E. Morrow, who saw service in Italy as a Red Cross nurse, will address a meeting of the local Sivic league, to be held here Tuesday evening on the lakn at the home of Mrs. John Randall.

SUB-DIVISION REVENUE

OFFICE FOR RICHMOND The Internal Revenue Service Is to be taken to the people of the State of Indiana, according to an announcement made by Commissioner Daniel C. Roper today. Division and subdi vision offices, open at all times, which will serve as personal service stations to taxpayers are soon to be established In 2 lof the leading cities of the state This city is to become a subdivision office of the Muncie division with an office open at all times. Consolidation of the two Indiana Internal Revenue Collection Districts effects a centralization of the office work, which is largely of an accounting character, and permits the exten sion of the field service by the establishment of twelve general divisions. Headquarters will be established as early as possible in each of those divisions, where anofflce will be maintained open at all times, with men in charge especially qualified to assist taxpayers on income and all miscellaneous tax matters. The general plan now 'provides for the establishment of headquarters for the division into which the state Is divided in the following cities: Indianapolis, Terre Haute, Evansville, Gary, South Bend, Fort Wayne, Muncie, Logansport, Lafayette, Columbus, New Albany and Bedford. Sub-division offices offering the same facilities for serving taxpayers will be established at Richmond, Marion, Anderson, Kokomo, Hammond, East Chicago, Michigan City, Elkhart, and Lawrenceburg. In addition, when this plan is under ful headway, Zone Deputies will be stationed for the first week of every month in every city having over 5,000 population in the state, as well as many other cities and towns which now have no representative of the Revenue Service. The Zone Deputy will spend the remainder of the month in surrounding territory, usually one or two counties. The reorganizaion of the Internal Revenue Service in Indiana is part of a general program being carried out by Commissioner Roper to unify and expand the revenue service so that it may more intelligently serve the growing needs of the great number of Federal taxpayers. In addition to the Division and Subdivision offices, Zone Deputies will be stationed in the following places in the Muncie Division: Elwood, Newcastle, Portland, Winchester.

BILL FOR MAIMED SOLDIER

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1. A special law to provide an extra war risk inburance payment of $100 a month for Henry Biter, Dubuque, la, the only American soldier in the war who lost both eyes and hands, was parsed tpday by the senate and now goes to th president. KERSHNER WAS AFRAID HE WOULD LOSE HIS JOB Was So Rundown He Could Hardly Do His Work Tanlac Builds Him Up. "When a man has had stomach trouble for years, bo bad he couldn't eat even an egg without suffering af terwards, and then finds a medicine that fixes him up in Just a few weeks time so he can eat just anything. I think it is time for him to talk for the benefit of others. Well, Tanlac has done all this for me and more, for I am ten pounds heavier than I was when I began taking it and I am enjoying better health than I have in a long time." The above remarkable statement was made by C. H. Kershner, stationary fireman for the Marion County Construction Company, living at 2310 Cornell avenue, Indianapolis, in an interview, recently. "I have been five years," he continued, "trying to get my stomach in fchape so I could enjoy a square meal and at last I have succeeded, for Tanlac has certainly done the work. But nothing ever helped me, except just for the time being,- and at the time I started on Tanlac I was in a wretched condition. I was having to live on milk and toast and even that would cause me so much trouble at times that I could hardly go about my work. I was often so nauseated and my stomach so upset and sour that I couldn't retain anything and would have awful pains in the pit of my stomach, extending through my left side and back. I would bloat up as tight as a drum and the gas seemed like it was pushing my heart out of my body. I got to having bilious attacks every few days and was constantly taking something for constipation. My complexion got to be as yellow as a pumpkin and black spots would float before my eyes. My back was in such a bad shape that I couldn't stoop over to put coal under the boiler and straighten up without just suffering agony. 1 couldn't sleep at night on account of my stomach and terves and had lost about thirty pounds in weight, and was worried all the time for fear I would lose my job. "Now, this is Just the condition I was in when I read a testimonial in the paper that described my case almost exactly and I lost no time in getting a bottle of Tanlac. I am just row finishing up my fifth bottle and the results have astonished me. Why. just a few weeks ago I couldn't even eat an egg for breakfast and now I have pan cakes every morning and drink coffee, too, and these things I didn't dare touch before, and at my other meals I eat meats, vegetables and Just anything I want. Before taking Tanlac meats acted like poison with me, but now they don't hurt me the least bit. I never noticed much improvement until I had about finished my second bottle of Tanlac. but since that time I have gained ten pounds and am feeling like a brand new man. "It has been years since I could eat and enjoy it like I do now and with all my aches and pains gone life is worth living again. I used to have to sit down and rest every little while but now I can keep regular at work and I don't have that tired, exhausted feeling any more. Even my color has cleared up. And sleep, why I simply sleep like a log every night. Tanlao has done me bo much good that I just want to tell everybody about it." Tanlac is sold in Richmond by Clem Thistlethwaite; in Greensfork by C. D. Sornine; In Cambridge City by Mr. Dean House; in Pershing by Sourbeer & Rodenberg; in Centerville by Centerville Pharmacy.
