v ; The Car Shortage The number of new cars ' needed to handle the freight offered by the factories of this coun- - try js estimated at from 250,000 to a half million. - The number of freight cars constructed in 1919 was 100,000. None was constructed in 1018. The Nation's Business, in an examination of the freight earv shortage, found that there were 2,400,000 freight cars in use when the governmep took pverthe' roads. With the 100,000 cars added in d919,-the ; roads started the year 1920 with '2,500,000 freight cars, counting wobblies Looking forward to the demand for, cars in the autumn of this year, The Nation's Business presents the following figures: ; , 4 "For a number of years prior to government operation the railroads of. the country had been building approximately 175,000 freight cars annually? and scrapping 100,000 cars, a net annual gain of 75,000- The record of scrapped cars dur-

fng government controTCs not available. If 100,000 cars were scrapped each year, and only 100,000 cars were constructed in the two years of federal control, the total number of cars in shape for use in January 1, 1920, was 2,300,000 or 100,000 cars less than the number in use January 1, 1918. , . , "The car situation is about as serious as it

possibly could be. No orders have , been placed for 1920 construction; none win-be placed by the government, and it is not likely that any will be placed by the corporations until the lines actually

are returned to them for operation. It would require a high grade of optimism tov prompt one to guess that 100,000 freight cars could be constructed in time for use next fall, even if orders were placed in the spring, considering the demand for other kinds of construction work, and the condition of the market on which materials must be purchased' Secretary of Agriculture Meredith, in a statement a few days ago, said he believed part of the high cost of living is to be attributed to weaknesses in the distribution system. It does not require a far look into the future to hazard a guess that if the railroads cannot provide - the farmers with cars to handle the 1920 crops, prices instead of declining will rapidly soar. The railroads will be hard pressed to replenish the freight cars that are so badly needed now. povernment control of the lines was not accompanied by brilliant success. The freight car situation is another contribution to the general fault that was found with federal control.

THE GEORGE MATTHEW ADAMS DAILY TALK

ON BELONGING

We always know when we are in the place that we belong for It la then that we feel comfortable. We don't feel as tho we were going to be asked to leave, or to "move over." Every faculty that we have has its place in relation to the world cutslde. And the work ot life is to find where all that we have and are belongs. And in proportion as we find the largest number of places in the world for the largest number of out abilities, are we given our measure of success. We may belong to our friends and when we do, our friends know it and are glad. We may belong to our job and when we do, the job grows big. As people study, observe, travel, and increase in usefulness, everything and everybody makes a larger space for them and they belong more than ever. v The belonging sensation is the natural one. It is the one that has kept "one's kind" together.' And how very .wonderful it Is to belong and to be sure that you are understood there.- Few men and women who are failures, belong that way. Mostly their wires became crossed, or something snaped at the wrong moment. For all people belong where their best intentions point! Let us try to belong where we are the best fitted, and desire those thingB that make us better known to ourselves so that we may be the more agreeable to others. Let us keep our nerve by keeping our place by belonging to everything which, we touch or attempt or are! ,.

"HAPPIEST MAN IN ALL INDIANA" SAYS LAMBERT

"You can tell them Tanlac has helped my wife, too, and of all the people who have made statements about being benefited I don't believe

any have more cause to feel thankful,"

said Grover Lambert, 24 South Sixth

street, Terre Haute, in conversation with a Tanlac representative, a few

days ago.

Mr. Lambert is proprietor of the Terre Haute Barber Supply Company

ana nis standing and influence as a

business man and citizen are too well

known to require further comment.

"Tanlac has brought health and

happiness to my wife," added Mr

Lambert, "and la so doing has made

me the happiest man in all Indiana. About a year ago, while the 'Flu' was

going the rounds, she had a very ser

ious case. I thought she would never

recover and when she did finally get up 6he was as weak as a baby and

nothing seemed to help her regain nny strength. She was left without

any appetite and such a badly deranged stomach that she could hardly

eat anything. She complained of

dnll pain in her, stomach and suffered

all the time with indigestion. Her

her back pained her so severely that she could hardly stand, it. She could

her housework and had to remain in

Led for weeks at a time. She was so nervous that the door bell or telephone ringing, or just any little noise, would

upset her. "She felt discouraged and despondent and several times I was worried rick because her chances of recovery seemed so slim. But. some wonderful things happen In this world and the way Tanlac has helped her is one of them. One afternoon" while looking over the paper I noticed Tanlac recommended so highly that, I bought a

bottle. The first bottle did not seem to help her much, but after taking the second bottle I noticed some difference In the way she rested at night, and by the time she had finished her fifth bottle she was an entirely different woman. She can eat anything she wants, as much as she wants, without ihe least trouble from it. Her nerves have quieted down until slie sleeps the whole night through and gets up

moraines brngglng about feeling so fine. She is now doing all her houseJ work including the cooking and we

sit down and enjoy our meals together like we did in the good old days before she was taken sick. She has a good healthy color and I can tell from the way her face has filled out that she has gained several pounds in weight. She says life is worth living now and words cannot express the sratitude I really feel over what

IF YOUR EARS RING WITH HEAD NOISES If you have roaring,buzzing noises in your ears, are getting hard of hearing and fear Catarrhal Deafness, go to your druggist and get 1 ounce of Parmint (double strength), and add to it M pint of hot water and a little granulated sugar. Take 1 tablespoonful four times a day. This will often bring quick relief from the distressing head noises.

Anyone who has Catarrhal trouble of the ears, is hard of bearing or has head noises should give this prescription a trial. Adv.

Concerning Epidemics In Epidemics the germ fastens most readily on fruitful soil a system that is in poor condition. Stoppage of food waste, and the resulting decay, generates poisons which are absorbed by the blood, lowering its power of resistance to withstand the attack of outside germs such as influenza. In plain terms, constipation encourages Epidemics. If you keep your intestinal passage clear and functioning regularly to get rid of this waste, your system will be kept in good condition to successfully cope with disease germs to which you may be exposed. That is what the Nujol Treatment does without straining, and without drawing on the vitality of other parts of the body, as do other forms of treatment. In plain terms, Nujol discourages constipation and its dangerous consequences. Keep your body clean inside with the Nujol Treatment. It is the best possible Sickness Prevention.

Nujol is sold by all druggists in bottles bearing the Nujol Trade Jtlark. Beware of products represented to be "the same as Nujol." You may suffer from substitutes.

Made Possible the Richmond You Know

Capital, the accumulated savings of thousands, the corner stone of industry, has made possible Richmond's industrial development. Local banks have directed this stream of capital along the channels where it would most effectively serve the best interests of the whole community, realizing that a bank-prospers only in the proportion as it serves. The Dickinson Trust Company, the oldest, largest and strongest trust company in Eastern Indiana has been an important factor in safe--guarding the people's savings and has contributed substantially to the record of Richmond's growth.
