Tellmer, proserutlnff attnrixcy, who has taken charge of the circuit cov.rt grand jury. The prand jurorswill probably sit for 10 days, Mr. Jelli.son declared. "In my judtrment hasty consideration of evidence against residents of St. Joseph county should not be made." tiie prosecutor said. "An indictment returned by the prand Jury, while not necessarily fastening any proof of pruilt upon the individual, may tend to destroy what reputation it hau taken him years to build up. I feel that every citizen is entitled to have more than 15 minutes spent considering evidence against him and the prosecuting attorney'. office will see to it that no indictment 3 are returned on mere suspicion." In addition to the usual grist of matters to be called to the attention of the grand jury including bound over cases from the city court, a number of shooting affrays will occupy their consideration.

In the history i ih:s country there never w r- sti ii big opportunities for working men as exist today. Production i- low ;.nd eeryhHly wants ri.mpetep.t helj. A t5.rtclai's mi n can almost ilictato his own terms. Of course, there will always bhard times for these v. ho are u d physic-ally tit. Many a S'-uth IVnd working man, who. a few months ago was bordering in the v rire of a breakdown, has molded himstlf into phical fitness with the ..id of Pepgen, and today holds a responsible position that l.rincs him co-d wnces. Pepgen is made from a number of different kinds of roots and b.trk well known for their tonic, appetizing ar.d laxative powers. Dir.y

spells, sick headaches, sleeplessness, nervousness, stuffy, .bloated feelings after eating, nausea, underweight and other ailments) are frequently caused by feeble or slow digestion, or by habitual constipation. When fuch is the case. Pepgen seldom fails to relieve. Testimonials have been received from people who say that Pepgen is

the best medicine they have ever t:jod. All over the country they are praising it. As a matter of, interest, to the citiens here, the ftatements from people who live in other cities are published. Throngs in Louisville, Ky.. have given endorsements telling how Pepgen has relieved them. Amonc the latter ia W. J. Knight, i:3 X. .Seventh SU lie says: "I had indigestion lor several years. My appetite was poor and so I got into a weak. run-down condition." Mr. Knight Is a carpenter and is employed by the Progress Stove L Uange Co. Continuing, he tjs; "I could not eat greasy meats, cabbage, or any foods that are hard to dicest. If 1 did I had sharp pair..' tu my Steina h. I was easily exhausted and so very nervous I could not sleep soundly at night. "Sometimes I would roll and toss and moan for hours. I pgen. however, lias helped me wonderfully. It relieved my indict stioti. I can at meats, eabbaue, beans or any of the so-, alb-,1 'Indigestible' lods. I never have had t. pain in my stomach since I began taking Pepgen. I get sound sleep a.t liiLrht. My nerves are steady and I sure Ay have a good appetite 'I have gained in weipht and am feeling better and stronger than I have for years. I heartily recommend Pepceu."
