The Tenderfoot Farmer! Z.

Mrs. Oscar Sackett, of Cloverdale, a Greencastle visitor Wednee-

It was one of l!iese experimci.tcl farmer*, who put itreen spectacles on Ins cow and led her shavings. His thco. / was that it d.dn't matter whut the cow ate so Iou4 as she was led. The questions of digestion and nourishment had

not entered into his calculations.

It’s only a “tenderfoot” farmer that v/oul l try sac'i

r an experiment with a cow. But many a farmer feeds Ai.'jsr'f regardless of digestion and nutrition. He might almost cs well cat shavi ig for all the good he gets out of his food. The result is that the stomach grows “weak” the action of the organs of digestion and nutrition ire impaired uud the man suffers the miseries of dyspepsia and the r.gonics of nervousness.

To atrenQthtn the etomach, restore the ac'./. / of the or* Hans of digestion and nutrition and brace up ..v nervee, use Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discover . It 'n an nr.* tailing remedy, and has the confidence o'' a.iysiriaae well as the praise of thousands healed by J rise.

In the strictest sense "Golden Medical Discovery” u a temperance medicine. It contains neither intoxicants nor narcotics, and is us free from alcohol ns from opium, coo tine and other dangeroua drugs. A I ingredients printed on its outside wrapper. „ _ .. . , . Don’t lei a dealer delude yoa for his own profit » here is no medicine tor stomach, liver and Mood “just as good” as “Golden Medical Discovery.

The marriage of William H •Stanley and Miss Edith Rae Evans, of this place at the home of the ■bride's sister Mr. and Mrs. P. V. Roberta at Kentland Thursday caused a surprise among the friends of the young couple here. Mrs. Stanley is a graduate of the R 1 achdale high school and a musician.

Stanley, formerly a surgeon at the State Soldiers' Home, I^afayette, atnl a brother of John Stanley and Mrs John Foster, of Ladoga, and Mrs. R. H. Williamson of CrawTordsville. An editorial in the Danville Republican Is as follows: “I/ebanfon scored heavily against the wets and the city will remain 'dry. Crawford/sville, Greencastle and Lebanon, county seats of counties adjoining Hendricks, have now voted dry. The people in those towns know the evils that grow lout of the licensed liquor traffic and •exp'rionoe has taught them that a dry town is better than a wet town. Martinsville another adjoining 'county seat, voted wet. Of course it is well understefod that this was done by the most brazen purchase Of votes. It is doubtful if any coun\y in the state has a larger proporVion of floaters than Morgan dounty and this Tact contributed to the success 6f those who were financially interested in having the saloon restored Danville voted wet because of a lack lof experience with the licensed traffic. There was not nearly the interest taken by the drys at the election in Danville that there was by the drys in the neighboring county seats.’’

In last week's News there appeared a clipping from an Indianapolis paper in regard to some samples of cotton supposed to ctontain vermin of some kind, and which had been sent in to the State Board of Health by a Roachdale physician; the whole proposition sounded extremely "Ashy," aside from the fact that the article reflected on the professional knowledge of the local physician. Investigation of this matter proves that the entire article was the imaginafton of a city reporter (?) We have a letter from J. P. Smonds, Superintendent of the Indiana State Board of Health in which he says "the specimen did not come from Roachdale.” This is a fair sample of indianapolis journalism, but just why the follow turned in his dopy as coming from Roachdale cannot be explained unless it be the mere lack of gray matter—some people have a small reserve to draw from.

The Governor told Mat Murphy, the local attorney who carried the petition asking that he interceed in their behalf that he would not intercede for the the men further than that he would make a statement of fact as he got it from the attorney and petitioners, to the board, and would let it act as it would in the matter He said he would neither ask that the licenses be granted or that they not be granted A repr sentative of the Fairbanns Srale Company was here Thursday afternoon and this morning conferring with the city council regarding the installing of a set of scales to be placed on the lot just east of the fire station.
