INDIANAPOLIS. Aug. IS. In the abandonment of the system of cleaning every stock tar that arrives at the Indianapolis stock yards the Indiana Livestock Sanitary board contends it has struck a blow directly at the high cost of living. The practice had been in vogue four years and has been adding often from 25- to 30 per rent, to the cost of transporting live stock. Thi? charge was assessed against the shippers following a ruling by the Indiana public service commission that the railroads need not pay it. "It had come to a point where -Indiana was the only Mate in this part of the country that was requiring the cleaning, disinfecting and fumigating of every livestock car every time It was used," said Dr. Ii. K. Northrup, state veterinarian. "I am informed that when a car reached I-ouisville or Cincinnati in filthy condition, it immediately was routed to Indianapolis, where, at the expense of the shipper, it was put in lit condition again.

WHAT IS IT? The greatest novel ever written bv

Clarice Wardham and Nancy Smith had gone through high school together and their friendship was of the sort that could not be altered, even when Nancy went to business school and later took a stenographer's position In a business office, and Clarice, through her father's acquired fortune, became one of the most soucht after young women in what chose to be called, and was called Society, with a capital S. Clarice did not give Nancy her old dresses, nor did she try to persuade her to attend the parties she gave, to which only folk with very much more money to spend than Nancy had were invited. When she asked Nancy to her house it was either to enjoy her alone or with a few of the old friends with whom Nancy could be most at her ease. Thus Nnncy was never made conscious of the fact that fortune had dealt less kindly with her than it had with Clarice, if indeed it really had.

When Clarice first met

Harrow and somehow unwittingly charmed and then captivated that inveterate man of business, she did

which Harrow was president, "war conditions" had meant 25 per cent greater profit than usual. "Take this." he threw out again. "It is for my housekeeper, Mrs. Hawkins. 'Owin gto war conditions I have found it inadvisable to dispense with any additional money in the wages to the servants this year."

Nancy wrote these and a dozen or so similar letter that Mr. Harrow dictated, and gave no inkling of her own attitude toward the contents of the letters. That night, when Harrow had left rather earlier than usual, the letters were still on Nancy's desk, and when she left a little later, the letters were l'.nw in a mail basket where it might seem that ti.ey had been forgotten, but where, as a matter of fact, there was no danger of their being mailed. Nancy hurried from the office to the nearest public telephone booth, called up Clarice and told her she wanted to see her at once and would board the next car toward her house. She hurried to Clarice's room and to.'ked with her for a short 10 min

Experience has taught thousands of housewives that a preserving syrup made of lA Karo (Red Label) and V sugar is the sure successful syrup for putting up fruit. They get clear, firm jellies, preserves witn . rich, heavy syrup, and delicious jams. Then, too, "candying" is avoided when they use this Karo method instead of all sugar alone. This fine, clear Karo Syrup is a wonderful help in all kinds of preserving. It blends the sugar with the fruits, brings cut the rich, "fruity" flavor, and keeps your jams and jellies mellow in the glass. For Cooking, Baking and Candy Making Kan (Red Label) is used in millions of homes. In al' cooking and baking recipes use Karo instead 0; sugar. It is sweet, of delicate flavor, and brings out the natural flavor of the food.
