If you have made a failure in your earch for health, don’t think of giving up the quest, but get the osteopath to examine you and locate the iause; forget your mistake of drugging and do not let prejudice keep rou from giving the osteopath a fair irial. The human body is a vitalized maihine which is far more complex and nor.' delicate than any man-made nachine. Hence, its proper adjustJnent should be entrusted only to ;hose skilled in the minutest details >f the body structure and who are ixperts in adjusting its defects, knowledge and work, one helping 'he other, make a real, successful physician. That the Spaunhurst tsteopathic physicians know what to jlo, how to do and do skillfully and successfully that which drugs absolutely can not do is evidenced by hany of the most cultured and intellectual men and women of this community.

LIGHTNING’S MYSTERIES. Again and again we are compelled to regard with mingled awe and wonder the inscrutable forces of nature. The latest demonstration of these resistless powers to arrest local attention was the flame that leaped from a cloud and In an Instant snuffed out the breath of life of two mortal beings. Scientific study of the phenomena of lightning is largely theoretical. The greatest progress has obtained from photography, because actual experiments are both difficult and daugerous. The most common and the most dangerous form of atmospheric electricity Is what we know as forked lightning. It has been calculated that It would require 34 hours for a 100-horse power engine to generate an amount of energy equal to that discharged in a single bolt of lightning within an almost imperceptible fraction of a second, which gives some idea of the destructive force of lightning. It is reasonable to believe that not all bolts of lightning descend to the ground, especially those followed by long and repeated reverberations of thunder, the forks and lateral branches of which probably are dissipated in the air. What often appears to the naked eye and also shown in a photograph as a direct descent of a livid stream of fire to the ground may be but an illusion due to the meeting of the cloud-line and the horizon. If every bolt of lightning descended to the ground there would doubtless be much more destruction by electrical storms, for the bolt that "strikes” leaves unmistakable proofs of Us contact. Many theories exist as to the attractive powers of various objects during a thunderstorm, especially different varieties of trees, animals and the human body, but the caprices of lightning are too numerous to fix any definite conclusions. All that it is possible to do to enhance safety during an electrical storm is to be guided by precautions against exposure that are almot: universally known, but which are not absolutely infallible.—L o 1 u in b ns Press Post.

In three working days ending last evening seven brain specimens with positive evidence of rabies were examined in the state laboratory of bacteriology at Indianapolis, a record not equalled in the history of the institution. The extent of rabies at this season of the year Is a source of alarm among the health officers, who pronounce it a signal for citizens to exercise unusual care to prevent a spread of the disease, as well as to protect themselves. Nearly all of the specimens were sent by persons living in or near Indianapolis. The last of seven specimens was received yesterday from inspector Buchanan, of the City Health Department, of Indianapolis. It was the head of a dog belonging to Ed Spahn It had bitten several dogs In the neighborhood of Roosevelt Avenue and Rural Street and had compelled a number of hangers-on In a saloon in the vicinity to barricade themselves behind the bar. The dog had attacked a bulldog In the saloon and it seemed likely that it had rabies. A policeman was called, but as soon as he stepped into the room the dog ran at him and the policeman lost no time in mounting a pool table, from from where he shot the dog. A laboratory examination showed the dog had rabies. A cat, found dead, was recently sent in from a farm near Calvertsville, but there was found no evidence of rabies. However, the head of a hog soon followed from the same farm which developed negrl bodies and it developed that the cat had bitten a number of hogs before it died. Twenty pigs and a number of fattening hogs on the farm died of rabies late last week. The head of a hog sent in from the Tex farm, near Indianapolis, showed negri bodies in abundance and It was learned that a number of hogs on the farm had died after showing symptoms of rabies. The department is expecting an increase in rabies and is preparing to make extensive examinations. “It will make it much more satisfactory to those who send tn the specimens,” said Dr. Slmonds, “if they will exercise proper care in killing suspected animals. The brain should be carefully shielded in the killing. The animal should not be shot in the head, should not be killed by striking on the skull with a blunt Instrument and the head should be sent tn intact. No alcohol should be used. Care should be taken to protect a suspected animal until symptoms have developed which strongly indicate the presence of the disease. An animal may he infected, but if killed too soon tin examination will not show the negri bodies. Such a suspected animal, unless the disease is in an advanced stage, should be placed where it will be secure and carefully watched until the Indications show plainly that it is infected. If the services of a veterinarian can ie obtained he should be called in to observe the animal for at least ten 'lays, at which time, if the suspoctej nimal lias rabies, it will bo shown."

Madison Township (juintet Beats the 1‘uttutuiville Basketball Team ami Then Loses to the Lena Independents Wednesday Night.

E. WRIGHT OF PUTNAMVILLE, STAR

In spite of the fact that they have had no chance for g oj practice, the basketball teams which played at the Banner rink Wednesday, showed exceedingly good team work and remarkable ability in goal tossing. In the first game the Putnamville five lost to the Madison town.drip quintet by a large score. Putnamville was outclassed from the beginning but put up a good game in spite of this handicap. Guy Wright, brother of Ernest Wright of this city, put up the best game for the Putnamvilleites, while Cleve Thomas of the Madison team showed himtolf to he ti e . tr.r of the evening. Following this game, the Madison team played a quintet from Lena, and their luck changed. Lena took the long end of the score in the first half and it '\ :s only through tin; playin . of Richards, DePa.i v’s star guard who was put in play on account if the absence of their regular guard, that Madison brought the score up to 20 to 21. Joseph reston referreed the latter game.

That there was a substantial increate In the amount of hay—especially clover hay—produced by the farmers of Indiana during the year 1908 over the year 1907 is shown in figures compiled for the forth omlng report of the Indiana Bureau of Statistics. Not only the acreage in clover was greater, but the average yield was higher. The timothy did not! turn out so well. The acreage for clover in 1908 was 1,157,075 acres, which is more than double the acreage in 1907. The acreage in 19n7 was 555,890 acres. The average yield in clover was 1.70 tons to the acre, while than In 1907 | was 1.18 tons. The clover crop for! the state in 1908 amounted to 1,972,1 09 tons, while that of 1907 1 was 058,874 tons. The acreage of timothy meadow for 1907 was a little less than that for 1908, but the average yield per acre was higher. In 1907 the acreage was 1,315,138, with an average yield of 1.41 tons. In 1908, with an acreage of 1,317,455, the total timothy crop for the year was 1,835,244 tons, while that in 1907 was 1,858,845 tons.
