SEASON OF FARM SALES RE-OPENS ON AUGUST 1 1

Jones and Pike Are First Men to Announce Sale Others Follow in Swift Succession. By WILLIAM R. SANBORN The opening gun in the farm and breeders' sale campaign for the fall and winter season, 1919-20, will be fired at Centervllle by Jones & Pike on Monday. August 11. One would scarcely class August as a fall month, come to think of it, but regardless of that the "season" will be on from that early date. Jones & Pike believe In centering their fire; they confine their efforts to hogs, if you please, Big Type Poland Chinas, exclusively, and to the Wonder" family in particular. Many will recall their last sale, held on February 21 at which there was a large attendance and much spirited bidding. These gentlemen are not to have a clear field for August; there will be something like twenty farm sales held In this vicinity during that month of Dog Days. Frank Williams, up Williamsburg way, will also sell a few Big Type Polands in August, and also mayhap, some other plunder. His sale is set for the 25th. But Charles Benson will get there first his sale is booked for the 14th; to be followed by that of William Meerkamp on the ISth. Ollie Hodgin comes next in order with a sale billed for August 19th, after which Will Wilcoxen has one ribbed up for the 21st, while Jerry Snodgrass decided to wait until the 28th before pulling off a sale. But what's the use, we are not going to tell you the name of every farmer v ho Is to have a sale in August in Wayne and adjoining counties, but there are a raft of them you may be sure. September Farm Sales Beginning with the first day of September, the day for which the Robert Wilson sale is set, we find that fifteen tales are already arranged for as follows: Robert Wilson. Sept. 1; Ringley & Crow, Sept. 2; John Null, Sept. 3; Frank Taylor, Sept. 4. Mr. Taylor lives on the John Beeson farm and is to remove to the farm owned by Frank M. Jones, near Bethel, a little later on. Mrs. Leslie Raper will hold her sale on Sept. 5th. The next sale on the September callendar comes on the 8th, and Charles Wickett picked that as a lucky date; while Cornelius Connell decided that the 9th of the month would suit him just as well. The Oscar Lamb sale is set for the 10th; Delbert Funk's for the 11th; Earl Holmes picked the 12th; Addleman & Brown the 17th; Olier Meyer the 18th; John O. Baines gets the 19th; Clem Gaar the 24th and Arthur Hale the 25th. But we must not overlook the Homer Estell sale, which is 6etfor the 16th, Tuesday being his lucky day. Many Sales In Sight The record of sales made last year bids fair to be surpassed this fall and winter. Men are beginning to figure on sales dates much earlier than they did last summer, not only in Wayne county .but throughout the entire field. As all are aware, not only were the number of sales a record last year, but so also were the prices paid. This was not only true at to live stock, but with reference to grain, hay and farm machinery. Many expect to do as well, or even better, during the com-J ing season. No Palladium reader went to a sale expecting to find things being given away, but with the expectation of paying what every animal or article was worth, at a fair valuation. He was informed as to what his neighbors were paying at the general run of farm sales, from the complete reports made daily. It would be interesting to know just how much money changed hands at Wayne county farm cales last season, to say nothing of those reported for Preble, Darke and Union counties. Take one day's Wayne county record for instance, February 17th, the date of the Newton Snyder, Dan Boyer, Frank Clevenger and Simpson, Hodgin and Raper sales. These four sales totalled $24,055, an average of more than SG.OfiO ' The farm sales is an old and established institution which now means much in history of the farmer's year. Time was when a farm sale meant retirement from the farm; a clean up for keep. Not so today. The farm pale is now taken as a matter of course, and is such looms larger in the business of farming, from year to year. Daniel Kiser, Aged 90, Dies At Cambridge City CAMBRIDGE CITY, Aug. 1 Funeral services for Daniel Kiser, who died at his home near Cambridge City, were held Wednesday afternoon at the Oermantown Lutheran cemetery, the Rev.

Thirteen Cattle Killed When Lightning Hits Tree OXFORD, O., Aug. 1 During an electrical storm yesterday afternoon, thirteen beef cattle which had taken refuge under a tree on the farm of Otis Shultz, west of here in Franklin county, Ind., were instantly killed when lightning struck the tree.

She was knocked about ten feet back into the room, but escaped injury. Franchise League News v Indiana Women Side-Tracked Again. TERRE HAUTE, Ind., August 1. "I hope to live to see the day when women's most .vital concerns are considered of any importance, when they are opposed to the convenience of men," said Miss Benbridge, president of the Woman's Franchise League of Indiana, when commenting on the announcement from the state house that the special session of the legislature to ratify the Federal suffrage amendment, would not be called for the present. "This Is just one more Illustration of the fact that we and our affairs can always be pushed aside for any trivial matter." "The reason given for the postponement is that the money needed to run the state can be arranged for witnout an appropriation, and therefore there is no hurry. This is in the face of the announcement sent broadcast over the state that the session was to be primarily for the ratification. "Governor Goodrich tells us that a number of the legislators do not want to go into session in August, but that the call will be sent out some time later. Personally, I do not believe that a little hot weather will hurt any of the legislators, and in any case, they are elected to legislate whenever legislation is needed. A great number of them are strongly in favor of an early session, and have so express ed themselves in letters to me." "We want to start our citizenship schools so that our new voters will go to the polls for the first time well informed and prepared to cast their votes intelligently. We cannot do this, we cannot do anything, until suffrage has ceased to be an issue in this state. We learned long ago that our cause will not triumph because it is righteous. It will only triumph if we keep everlastingly at it, and this last delay has showed us that the time to cease our efforts along the old lines has not come. Women all over the state are taking the governor's announcement hard, but they are not disheartened. They see a bright linChildren Prefer Jersey Corn Flakes Because They Stay Crisp in Milk.

Arkansas swung into line this week by ratifying the federal amendment In the special session of their legislature, by an overwhelming majority. A signal victory has been won by the women of Nebraska through the decision of their supreme court, recently handed down. This decision brings to an end the hard fought battle waged against the women of Nebraska by the anti-suffrage Interests of the state, In the hope of invalidating the Limited Suffrage Act passed by the 1917 legislature.

As no decision has been handed down by the supreme court of Tennessee, on the constitutionality of their recent partial suffrage law, the women of Chattanooga voted in the election held there on July 8.

RAINBOW COLORS RECALL PROMISE

Appear Silently as Dark Clouds of Storm Roll Away. As we stand on a summer's day, and look at the beautiful colors in the rainbow, the thought of promised safety comes to us. This marvelous blend of colors can be compared to the glow of health produced by Pepgen, the great reconstructive tonic. Pepgen radiates happiness while the clouds of sickness disappear. Pepgen relieves stomach trouble. It is especially valuable for distress after eating, bloating, gas, cramps or colic, dyspepsia and a general run down condition of the digestive organs. Pepgen. is a good investment for anybody who needs better health. It is designed to aid catarrh sufferers. As catarrh progresses there are pains in the stomach, back and kidney regions. Loss of appetite and increase in nervousness mark the catarrh sufferer. There finally comes a feeling of general lassitude that Is generally characterized as "that run-down feeling." Men and women, who suffer from loss of appetite, sour stomach, irregular circulation of the blood, sleeplessness and loss of strength will find Pepgen starts the work of reconstruction. Pepgen aids digestion, promotes healthy, refreshing sleep and strengthens the nerves. Adv. STOP AND THINK POPULAR GOODS MUST HAVE MERIT Why Does Pepgen Sell in Such Tremendous Quantities? The production of Pepgen now is unbeaten. Stop and think. Of course, it pays to advertise pays tremendously when the product advertised has absolutely no competition and "makes good" to the last word. But do you think advertising alone would create such a monster demand for any article as Pepgen has? Don't you agree that merit so extraordinary as to stamp Pepgen as absolutely unique in Its powers to "make good" is necessary to make such a record? Pepgen is a tissue builder, appetizer and invigorant. It reaches, with its reconstructive qualities, those ills of the stomach, liver and kidneys and catarrhal affections of the mucous membranes, that are the common maladies of the day the strength sapping, lethargy-creating ailments that "get your nerve" whether you be merchant, or artisan, employer or employe, man or woman. Pepgen is purely vegetable. The ingredients are brought from many parts of the world. In the Pepgen laboratories these are compounded with absolute accuracy, so as to obtain the high standard of efficiency that is maintained in the tonic. Weak, run-down men and women, who need better digestion, more strength and a toning up of the nervous Bystem will find Pepgen an ideal tonic, appetizer and Invigorant. Get Pepgen at Thistlethwaite's and other first-class drug stores everywhere. Adv. TOO MUCH STEAM WEAKENS BOILER Crowded With Higher Pressure Than Builders Intended Ends Usefulness When a boiler carries more steam than is necessary, it Is under too big a strain, and is weakened. When the body is overtaxed by excessive nerve force, it is quickly broken down. There are many people who need some sort of a brake to slacken their speed of living. The most natural thing would be a frequent stopping for needed refreshment and rest. However, the stress of modern business methods, the cares and duties of the household, the constant attention demanded of the farmer by his fields and stock do not admit of rest. To restore the body !n the natural i way, by rest, would often spell f lnanI cial ruin, so the average man and i woman just "keeps on going." The I tissues of the body become weakened, ! the stomach revolts, the liver tails to do its work and then follow dyspepsia, indigestion, dizziness, heartburn, headaches and later come rheumatism and catarrh. The most reasonable, rational method of restoring health, when weakness first appears is by the "Tonic Route." A tonic builds, refreshes and rejuvenates. Pepgen has been proclaimed by thousands as the most valuable of all tonics. Pepgen is especially intended for nervous, run-down men and women. It gives them better digestion, makes them eat better and sleep- better. It gives strength and energy for work. A gain in weight is usually the hall mark of returning health and Pepgen is a flesh builder for thin people. Adv.

WHY DID THE STATES

Realizing the importance of preserving the health of the nation over everything else, thirty-six sovereign states of America, at tremendous loss of revenue, ratified the Prohibition Amendment to the Constitution of this great republic on January 29, 1919. marking an epoch which is undoubtedly the greatest advance for welfare known in Its history. After years and years it has, at last, been recognized that alcohol is a detriment to morals and a danger to life, whether used by citizens in the largest cities or in the smallest communities. This is due, of course to the effect that alcohol has upon the human system. In action alcohol is a violent stimulant. It Irritates the tender mucous membranes of the body and thus hinders digestion, circulation, assimilation and every other function, often destroying vitality itself. Alcohol has frequently been known to cause hardening of the liver, to promote rheumatic pains and seriously harm brain power. There is a time when the extensive use of alcohol, for internal purposes, might have been excusable owing to the lack of knowledge that this poison caused. It was due to the same reason lack of knowledge that the Puritans executed some of their most intelligent and high-minded women under the "Witch Ordinances," believing that in so doing they were "casting out devils." Nowadays everybody knows this "was wrong and the practice of the Puritans in this respect will always remain as a blot against those God-fearing and otherwise righteous people. Since the injurious qualities of alcohol have been acknowledged, the question is, "Why should alcohol be issued in medicines any more than sold in beverages?" When absorbed into the blood the consequences are the same In either case. Formerly It was thought that all tinctures, fluid extracts and cordials required alcohol. If statistics published by the London (Eng.) Temperate hospital are correct then the above theory is wrong. TheBe statistics show that this hospital has obtained

Merchants and Manufacturers Willing to Pay Big Salaries for Competent Men and Women

There Is work for practically every person who has good health. Merchants and manufacutrers are willing to pay well for proficient help, but there is no room for the weakling who always has dyspepsia and a "grouch." Opportunity is knocking at the door of every man and woman in this city. If you have stomach, kidney, liver or catarrhal ailments the opportunity has arrived for you to be benefited. Pepgen, the great constructive tonic, has relieved thousands. It has placed many a man and woman at the head of the industrial procession. It has given workmen strength to win promotion. It has made the business WALL PAPER WAS NEEDED TO HOLD HOUSE TOGETHER Frame Was Not "Pasted" When Scaffold Was Moved and It Fell. "Boss," said the foreman to the contractor, as he rushed excitedly into the office, "that house you put up for Silas Jones fell down last night." "How is that? What was the matter?' hurriedly ejaculated the contractor. "Why, It was the mistake of the workmen they took down the scaffold before they put on the wall paper." "This old Joke has a very, very serious side, as well as a funny one, for it goes to show the frailness with which many things are built. The human body that house In which we live when it is attacked by disease is Just as Insecure as the house held together by wall paper. The fibres and tissues, which compose the network that holds the frame together, become weak and the result is many ailments, such as dyspepsia, indigestion, rheumatism, backache. headache, constipation, stomach, liver, kidney and catarrhal ills. It is at times like these that the value of a great reconstructive tonic is most apparent. You can't amend the human constiution but you can live up to it by taking Pepgen, the reconstructive. In thousands of instances Pepgen has given relief. Throughout the United States men and women of various walks of life have found Pepgen the ideal tonic tissue builder, appetizer and Invigorant. The proof of Pepgen is in the taking. Get Pepgen at Thistlethwaite's and other first-class drug stores everywhere. Adv.
