Carnival Companies
Seldom does a carnival stay in Richmond a
week without creating a disturbance or giving
occasion for offense. The one that closed its exhibition here last week is no exception, and we may rest assured that others, booked for the season, will also invite criticism for acts of omission and commission. A carnival company spends very little money in a city. It takes out money in large sums. Kichmond has a number of legitimate amusement places that offer wholesome and clean recreation to the public the year round. The owners of these theatres and amusement houses pay taxes in Wayne county, employ Richmond labor,
spend their money. here, and contribute their! share toward the general prosperity of the "community.
The public keeps a close watch on the kind of
amusement offered in the home theatres. Un
savory and shady productions are taboo because public opinion will not tolerate them. But it seems that a carnival has the right to conduct shows which no Richmond manager would think of booking. Obnoxious and often obscene per
formances are conducted in violation of public
morals and without fear of disturbance.
Betting boards are under ban here, and yet forms of lottery in which the element of chance
predominates are permitted at carnivals. The inconsistency is too great to be overlooked with
a shrug of the shoulder. If Richmond business men are not permitted to operate punch boards because they are inimical to the best interests of the public, then a carnival show should not have
the right to invite the public to spend its money on similar features. The carnival nuisance will be tolerated in Richmond until some major infraction of the law, or, worse still, some tragedy, gives the city unsavory notoriety all over the state. Carnival companies should be made to obey the laws of the state and the ordinances of the city. They are not exempt and have no claims to immunity.

Dinner Stories
"What are you doing in the kitchen, Thomas?" inquired the inquisitive wife. "I'm opening a can of tomatoes if
you particularly wish to know," he impatiently rejoined.
And what are you opening It' with?" "Why, with a can opener. Did you think I was using my teeth?" he added savagely. ''Oh, no, dear," she sweetly replied; "but I do know you are not opening it with prayer." Guy Oyster, the brilliant secretary
of Samuel Gompers. said at a tea at the Rltz: "The trouble with us plebeians Is that we won't admit we are plebeians. We claim we're Just as good as any Cortlandt-Bleecker or Astorbilt that walks Fifth avenue. "You know the story about Tommy Jones. Tommy's ma forbade him to play with common boys.

v ; THE INVISIBLES. The great t nines in this world and lifp are the invisible things. Time, love, enthusiasm, faith, honor, truth you can't. see these, but they creep into your existence to influence and shape you as nothing material and tangible, ever could. Imagination Is another great Invisible. And I make it work overtime a good deal. At night time, when the stars gather for their nightly convention, and after I have put my workaday body upon Its rest place. I gather a thousand or more Invisible chords (all Imaginary) about me as one would pull
tightly some garment, under a chill. I pull at one chord slightly, and from some distant place no matter how far I catch the warmth of one who believes In me and whom I must, not disappoint. I touch another, and a mother's .smile floods my heart with the whitest sort of light. And still another, I draw to me eves so gently and a score of happy memories appear to make night beautifully right through the long hours of hidden silence. We climb upon the ladders of our Invisibles! The press of a hand is visible but what goes from hand to hand is. heavy with invisibility. In loneliness do we grpoe through our Invisibles. But by great belief in them do we reach our ports no matter how rough the seas. God Is Invisible. But if you want to know Him and have Him b3 as visible and real as His sun and stars and flowers, all you have to do is to feck after him in spirit and in truth, and He will walk around with you everywhere you go Invisibly though In inspiration, as a noonday light I

Richmond turned out in holiday garb to welcime the arrival of the delegates to the twentieth convention of the Indiana Municipal League. Each visitor to the city was given a card bearing his name and official position, and a unique metal souvenir bearing a horseshoe on which was the inscription "Richmond, the Panic Proof City "
Good Evening By Roy K. Moulton
PERSONAL PREJUDICES I never have any truck with a man
who throws his arm about my shoulders or who edges his chair up close to me while talking business. I never repeat risque stories. I cannot remember them. I am not passionately fond of the best Mexican I ever heard of. I think there must be something wrong with a man who wears a derby hat all summer. I am very fond of the Australian woofus cat because there is no such cat. I dislike men who add "Thanking you in advance for the favor" to their
letters. I could never fall in love with a woman who used a lipstick in public. I have no ambition to meet the former crown prince of Germany nor to read anything more about him. I always feel like a boob when I keep my hat on in an elevator full of ladies. I think women will vote as Intelli
gently, if not more intelligently than
men. I don't like kitchen gardening, nor cold plunges in the morning. I never envy a writer any money he can get. I believe the link cuff-button is tha personal invention of Satan. I would rather read one of Zane Grey's novels once than one of Harold Bell Wright's twice. I frequent tea rooms because my doctor has told me not to eat much.
It is difficult to stick to conventions
when some of them are so unconventional. WE'LL BITE WHY NOT? Dear Roy: Why doesn't some hust
ling publishing company get "Babe"
Ruth to write a book of poems and.
then advertise him as the modern

WAS CRIPPLED FROM
RHEUMATISM OF JOINTS
One-fourth of all the printed matter in die United States emanates from New York city.
Fingers were bent, knees stiff
and painful; gives credit to Dreco for recovery. "I feel that any remedy that will benefit sufferers from rheumatism of the joints should be gtven, the support of every right-thinking man and woman," said Mr. Gordon Miller, a well known farmer living on R. R.
No. 9, Logansport, Ind. "I suffered from rheumatism off and on for years. Some years ago the disease became very severe, the joints became stiff and painful, so that I had to remain in bed. My fingers became drawn to the palm of my hand, the knuckles enlarged and it was impossible to straighten them. My shoulders were stiff and painful, ag well as the muscles from my head to my ehoulders. My knees gave me a lot of trouble on account of the stiffness ami pain; it was impossible for me to climb stairs without great pain. After
remaining quiet I could hardly move because of the stiffness." "For months I never left the house
and could not attend to my duties. I know that the average physician will not give encouragement to anyone suffering as I was from this form of rheumatism, and for that reason I decided to try Dreco, as it was being so
widely praised by many people suffering this way. At first I could see very little change, but by continuing the treatment I began to 6ee some improvement and gradually the pain and stiffness left me. My fingers returned to their normal condition and
I can open and shut my hand without
trouble." "I am recommending Dreco to all
who suffer from rheumatism of the
joints." Dreco is not a cure-all but is an ex
cellent remedy for rheumatism, catarrh, blood disorders, liver and kidney trouble and constipation. There are many diseases that are due in the beginning to faulty action or sluggishness of the organs of elimination. If these organs fail to perform their duty as intended by Nature, the poisons that should pass out of the system, remain and are sucked up by the blood and carried to different parts of the body. Such troubles as gas on the stomach, indigestion, sick-headache, poor circulation, cold feet, poor appetite and nervousness can be traced in many cases to poor elimination.
Dreco is now sold by all progressive j druggists throughout the country and j is highly recommended in Richmond by Clem Thistlethwaite's Seven Drug j Stores Advertisement.
