trouble was more severe at these
times. Sometimes I would be so stiff
I could not stoop or move quickly
without terrible twinges catching me
in the back and loins. The kidney Sc
cretions were much too frequent in
their action and in this respect bothered
me greatly owing to the number of
times I would have to get up at night.
I tried two or three kidney cures put

GET IDEA OF HOW HAMMOND
MEN WOULD PROPOSE
Mrs. Flint Causes Subjects to Plead for
Hand and Heart of Dressed broom.

The veil of secrecy and romance that
surrounds the proposal of marriage on
the part of youn lovers was rudely
torn aside at the Towle Opera House
last evening, and the people of Ham
mond had the opportunity of learn
ing how some dozen young men from
this town would propose to their lady
lovers, Gid the opportunity present.
The scene was what was known as
the broom scene" AS a climax of
an evenings fun, Mrs. Flint gave the
young men the suggestion that they
were all in love with one girl. Then
a broom was brought upon the stage
dressed to represent a woman, ard one
by one the young men dropped to their
knees and under the delusion that the
dressed broom was their best beloved
one, they poured out their love and
desire into the broom corn's ear.
This was but ono of the many funny
scenes, as both DR.. and Mrs. Flint
seemed at their best.
The Flints are here all the week, and
the program is entirely new every even
ing.

How They Found Out.

When the Iawtons had lived in Will
low Park about month they were in
vited to a succession of little dinners
Mt the houses of their new neighbors.
Mr.. Lawton was on dyspeptic's diet,
and Mrs. Lawton was endeavoring to
reduce her weight. 81 suppose we shall
have to eat all sorts Of things we don't
wish or else seem rude" said Mrs.
Lawton mournfully as they set out for
the first dinner.
To their growing surprise, the bills
Of fare placed before them at each din
ner, although not remarkably varied,
were all composed of such dishes as
they could both enjoy
II don't see how you all hit on just
the right things when Mr.. Lawton and
really are such difficult guests" said
Mrs. Lawton in burst of confidence
one afternoon when the neighbors were
taking tea with her.
The ladies looked at each other. and
then one of them spoke.
''You know Mary Sloan, who comes
to wash for you Tuesday mornings?'
she said. "Well, have her Mondays,
and Mrs. Green has her Wednesdays,
and she irons for Mrs. Porter Thurs
days and scrubs for Miss Homer Fri
days, so you see"-
Her voice trailed off into silence, but
Mrs. Lawton no longer wondered. She

BREAKERS AHEAD
FOR sen. BOWSER
Tenth District Man Breed
ing Trouble For Himself
at Convention.
ON TEMPERANCE LEGISLATION
Wants To Be Named on Resolutions
Committee to Introduce
DRY" Plank.

Senator A. ]. Bowser. who represents
this district. is making for himself q
thorny bed so far as Lake county is
concerned. He is a delegate to the
state convention and will, together
with Henry w. Marshall of Lafayette
put UP q stiff fight to be made mem
her of the committee on resolutions.
This in itself IS no crime. But when
it is mentioned that he wants TO be
named on that committee for the pur-
pose of embodying a temperance plank
In the platform which will follow the
ines OF two temperance bills, which
it is his interyion to Introduce in the
senate next winter, the wherefore of
the thorns is apparent. For the ma
jority of Lake county is in favor of
letting the liquor interests alone.
Il an a temperance man." he said,
and / have been unjustly criticised
for voting against the thousand dollar
license bill at the last session of the
Legislature. At that time I had good
reason to believe that this bill was a
brewery DILL and that it would create
a monopoly of the retail liquor brsi-
ress. Now, / have Ideas OF my own
on this matter, and want to get on
the committee on resolutions, where 1
can try to have them incorporated In a
temperance plank. Also l have pre-
pared two bills that I will introduce at
the next session of the Legislature for.
the control and regulation of the liquor
business.
The first bill will, In brief, make
these provisions: Confne saloons to
incorporated cities and towns, limit
them to the business districts of such
cities and towns, and keep them out of
residence, factory and suburban dis
tricts; limit the number of saloons to
one for each 1900 population of such
city or town. make the saloon license
50, 900, and divide this money $1,000 to
tn the city or town and $500 to a
fund for the purpose of maintaining a
hospital for the cure of inebriates; ere
ate a State Board Of Liquor License
Commissioners and permit no licenses
to be issued except by this board. The
second board will provide for the es-
tablishment of the inebriates hospital.
Il don't know whether / will meet
with encouragement from this con-
vention or not. but do know that these
two bills will be presented to the leg
| islature, and they will either have to
pass them or turn me down"

Much is said in these days about the
Importance Of training the young to
habits of observation. 1t is well to
keep ones eyes open, but as there are
two sides to every shield, so there are
times when it is not q mans first duty
to see everything that is going on.
A farmer hired a man, the story goes,
and put him into his field to work.
After awhile the farmer came along
and accosted the new hand:

OIL TO LAY DUST.
Cleveland Park Officials Believe it Is
Cheaper Than Water.

Cleveland Park Officials Believe Il IL
Cheaper Than Water.
Hundreds of gallons Of crude oil will
be used by Cleveland. o.. the coming
summer in laying the dust on the bou-
levards and park roads.
It has been decided by park officials
that oil for dust laying purposes Is
cheaper than water Experiments
were conducted last summer by SUI
perintendent Starke and Park Engi-
neer Stinchcomb, and 1t was announced
recently that the crude oil compost
tion would be used this season in place
of water for sprinkling purposes.
A composition Of crude oil and soap
is used, and this is diluted with water.
At first the proportion of the crude oil
mixture Is great. but after coating
forms on the roadways 1t is necessary
to use but small amount in the wa
ter, and the necessity for sprinkling
also becomes less and less. A well
coated roadway win be sprinkled but
once in two weeks at the height of
the summer season after the system
is In force.
''The use Of oil will be great labor
saver" said Superintendent Starke.
I'VE will net need nearly SO many
men and teams"
