Drinking Men
Not Wanted

The above sign is now seen in many
shops and offices in this city, because
drinking men are unreliable.
Competition is too keen and life is
too strenuous for an employer to keep
men on his payroll whose nerves are
unsteady and whose brains are not
clear.
Every line of business is beginning
to close its doors to drinking men.
Drunkenness is a disease and like
most diseases-has its remedy. Orrine
is the reliable treatment and is sold
under a positive guarantee to effect a.
cure or your money refunded. Orrine
is in two forms: No. 1 which can be-
used without the patients knowledge in
tea, coffee or food; and No. 2 for those
who wish to be cured.
The guarantee applies to both forms.

Several merchants between Lafayette
and Napoleon streets on Main street
upon hearing that their ward had been
declared a residence ward by the city
council in order to knock out the sa-
looms therein, sowed grass seed in
front of their business houses. Among
the places of business whose pro-
prietors are expecting fine lawns to ap-
pear and thus carry out the spirit OF
the new residence ordinance, are a
blacksmith shop and a garage. These
merchants should be encouraged in
their efforts to beautify the city. Why
not have a flower garden and plant q
few trees on the other side Of the
street.

CURES ECZEMA QUICKLY.
New Drug, PosIam, Now Obtainable in
Small Quantities.

Since its discovery one year ago. the
new drug, poslam, has successfully
cured thousands of chronic cases Of
eczema and other distressing akin
Affections. Heretofore poslam has been
dispensed solely for the benefit of &C.
zema patients in large jars sufficient
for a months treatment. This was
to be an inconvenience to many thous-
ands who use it for minor skin troubles,
such as pimples, blackheads. herpes,
scaly scalp. complexion blemishes, itch
ing feet. piles. ETC., which require but
a small quantity to cure. The over
come this, and in response to urgent
appeals, the dispensers of poslam have
been obliged to adopt, IN addition to
the regular two-dollar package, a spe-
cial fifty-cent size, which in future may
be found on sale at ]. w. Weis' and
other leading drug stores in Hammond
or may be ordered direct from the En-
Urgency Laboratories, No. 80 West 18th
street, New York City. In all eczema
cases poslam stops itching with first
application, and proceeds to heal i'm
mediate1y; chronic cases being cured
in two weeks. In less serious skin
troubles, results are seen after an over
night application.
Samples for experimental purposes
may still be had. free of charge. by

Lee Jewett, 265 Fayette street, Ham
mond, Ind, says: Il feel that I am
justified in telling others how much
benefit I received from the use Of
Doans Kidney Pills. About two years
ago, I commenced to suffer from kid
ney trouble. I doctored but received
only temporary relief In the morning
and at night, was bothered the most.
Sometimes 1 would be so stiff that I
could not stoop or move quickly with
out terrible twinges catching me in
the back and loins. The kidney secre-
tions were much too frequent in action
and bothered me greatly owing to the
number of times I would have to get
up at night. Hearing Doans Kidney
Pills highly spoken Of 1 bought box
at Bicknell & Co.'S drug store and
started their use. In a short time, I
noticed an improvement in my condi-
ton. The backache subsidized, and the
kidney secretions became normal. Feel
ing that the time was almost too short
to be sure of a complete cure, I kept
on taking them until had finished the

sponsible for keeping a great many
who otherwise would have come at

that at times it was impossible for
all to dance and it is believed that had
the night been fair, many would have
bad to be turned away from the doors.

the officers to be present during the
entire evening. but in order that all
should have an opportunity to enjoy
the occasion they were taken in relays.
The crowds began to arrive at $50
but the grand march was not started
until 10 o'clock and during the interim
those present enpoyed a social time
chatting and laughing in merry mood.
Although the program called for twen-
ty-four numbers, all were not given,
the dancers seeming to prefer to take
their time between dances for social
intercourse. The party did not break
up until the wee, sma' hours.
Most of the city officials were pres
ent with their wives, Mayor DeBraie
and Mrs. DeBraie being much in evil

gracious manner. There were quite a
number of out of town guests from
