High Quality—Low Prices
Guard Your Home From Disease The invisible menace that threatens every home all the time, is the disease germ. Millions of deadly germs will, in a fews hours, breed in a garbage can, an unwashed milk bottle, a clogged kitchen sink, or anywhere small food particles or any other matter subject to decomposition can collect v Yet you can make a better fight against disease than It can make against you, if you will fight with Lysol; will make your home germ-proof. Lysol is the ideal home disinfectant because it unfailingly and immediately kills germs, no matter what their nature. Its frequent use is simple, easy, economical—and wise. t Get aonie Lysol today. Don’t use it full strength, tor that is wasteful. Mix it with water in a jug or large bottle (23 cent bottle aaake* a two-gallon solution, a 50 cent bottle makes five gallons). Uae a little of this solution every day in the garbage pail, the toilets, the kitchen sink, the stable, the cesspool, the outbuildings, etc. Always put tome in scrubbing water, for soap alone will not MU malignant germs.

Expected Federal Authorities Will Look Into MetzdorfFs Record. |Special to The Indianapolis News] RICHMOND, Jnd., January lO-Heil-muth Metzdorff. German alien, who is in Jail here, charged with disloyal utterances against the United States, probably will be taken to Indianapolis tonight by federal officers. The police denari ir.ent has received word that Metzdorff will be taken in charge and hH record Investyrated. Despite the fact that Metzdorff faces internment until the end of the war. he apparently does not worry over the situation. He Impresses on those who have talked with him since hi* arrest that he is proud of hts stand for the fatherland and that he feels that he is something of a martyr to the cause of the kaiser. The police do -lot share the belief of some persons that Metzdorff is a German spy. At no time since coming to Richmond, it is said, has he made a secret of the fact that he was a subject of Germany, and he has been outspoken in his loyalty to the kaiser. The fact, however, that his case did not come to the attention of the council of defense or the police until recently has caused some surprise. REVISES RATE OF PAY. !

Provost Marshal General Changes Ex emption Board Figures. A telegram was received today from Provost Marshal-General Crowder by Major Robert c. Raltzell, state conscription agent, providing for the repeal of a section of the military service law- regulations, which stipulated the rate of pay for members of exmeption board* for classifying registrants under the draft law. The new rate of pay provided will he 30 cents to the aggregate membership of each board for each man classified, in case the board members wish to ask for any pay. Many of * the Indiana boards have asked for pay in the past, but some of them have given their services. The new regulation also stipiilates that in case the board members wish they may permit one member of the beard to draw more of the 30 cents’ allowance than the others. This provision Is to permit those who may do more of the work than others on the hoards to receive pay The new rate of pay is much less than the former rate.
