POLICEMAN KILLED Orrin M. Shelmadine, aged about 55, a veteran member of the Elkhart police force, was struck and instantly killed, by New York Central passenger train No. 17 at the Main street crossing in Elkhart, at 10:45 a. m. Tuesday Officer Shelmadine apparently stepped directly in front of the train, without being aware of its approach. The gates at the crossing were down at the time. Shelmadine’s body was badly mangled by the train. The body was carried several hundred feet by the train, and the engine and one car passed over the body when it became dislodged from the pilot. The accident occurred at the same place that Mrs. John E. O’Brien met her death on December 1, and in practically the same' manner. Surviving Mr. Shelmadine are his wife and one daughter. o CARD OF THANKS a We wish to thank our friends and neighbors for the floral offerings for our son. Mr. and Mrs. John LeCount and family.

Break the shells of 1,000 eggs intn t huge pan or basin, and you have the contents to make a man from his toonails to the most delicate tissues of his brain. And this is the scientific answer to the question, hat is man?” Why Called “House Leek.’’ The leek, it is said, is called house leek because it was formerly common in the north of England to plant the house leek on the roofs of cottages ac ft was supposed that the leeks were protection against thunder and light Ding.

Now All You Good Fellows, Come Fill Up Your Pipes The Velvet tin is twice as big WvErSi as shown here IF eyer men are “Tom” and “Bill” to each other 9 it’s when good pipes are a-going. If ever good pipes go their best, ’tis when Velvet’s in the bowl For Velvet is a mighty friendly smoke. Kentucky Burley is the leaf that Nature made for pipes. Wholesome and hearty, honest as the day. And Velvet is that same good Burley leaf, brought to mellow middle age. j For eight long seasons Velvet “meditates” in wooden hogsheads, throwing off the rawness of “young” tobacco—truly “ageing in the wood.” Out Velvet comes—cool, calm and generous—the tobacco Nature made good, kept good and made better. Velvet’s sweetness is the sweetness of good tobacco, not “put on” like “frosting” on a cake. Its mildness comes from natural ageing, not from having the life baked out. Its fragrance is true tobacco fragrance, not a perfume. And Velvet makes an A Number One cigarette. Roll one. w As good old Velvet Joe says: “Fill yo’ heart with friendly thoughts, Yo’ mouth with friendly smoke — An’ let the old world wag.” / * -the friendly tobacco ■''VY S ~ , ‘ l> -- •' . . ■ -i—r— ———

Our grandmothers used to hang a red Manner petticoat over the window of a smallpox patient’s room, asserting that it hastened the cure, and also prevented “pitting.” Scientists have now discovered that the red rays do actually exert a bad effect on the bacteria of the disease, and a correspondingly good effect on the patient; C ' L ■" r: 1 ' Achilles Shivers. “I have worn nothing else for the last six months.”—Testimonial for rubber heels.
