KOENING IS PAID.
County Compromises With Accountant
for $3.50.

After repudiating his report and pub
fishing all manner of statements con-
corning the inaccuracy of his work,
the county commissioners got together
compromised Accountant Koening- s
claim for $3.50 with a check for $3.50.
Then KOening dismissed his suit
against the board.
The late action makes more compli-
Gated the movements of the board and
of certain officials at the time inter
views were given leading to the pre-
sumption that Richard L. Thomas
clerk of the court, had embezzled coun-
ty funds. These interviews and quota
lions from Koening's report were
ditched the following day when Thomas
filed suit to verify the reports.
Then it was that County Attorney
Simon and County Clerk Zimmerman
found errors" in Koening's report.
That same day the county board Off
clally repudiated Koening's work They
refused to pay him and suit was filed
against the board At the time the
suit was filed, 1t was freely rumored
that the board would never permit the
case to go to trial
Records showed that Koening's work
had been rejected officially the day
after the board had discharged him
from the job In the face of the dis
charge interviews were given to news
papers based on the report which the
board repudiated. But the same facts
and figures which the board gave the
newspapers were not sufficient to con-
stitute a defense in the courts and
after the filing of the Thomas action,
the board met hurriedly and denounced
and his work.
The experience with Koening cost
1922. His attempted whitewash of the
sheriff's office netted Col. J. D. Norton
no profit. His attack on R. L. Thomas,
clerk of the court, was damaging and
malicious and became doubly so, when
follo-ved by voluntary interviews from
several county officials.
Since the Koening episode. the board
has employed new set of accountants.
Their services are costing Shawnee
$3.50 a day. They are still
on the books in Thomas office
and it may be several weeks before
they complete the audit of this office.

Stomach Sufferers
Squander Millions
In Search of Relief.

The world is full of disordered stom-
achs and 80 per cent of the money
spent upon physicians and drugs goes
in an attempt to cure the stomach.
People are made to believe that in
order to gain health they must doctor
their stomachs and use cathartics. So
the doctor gets his fee for the stom-
ach treatment and the druggist for the
physic, until the savings of a lifetime
are exhausted and yet no cure.
Let's be reasonable.
The sick stomach is in every case the
result of over-eating, hurried mastica-
ton and improper choice of foods. The
mucous lining all the way down the
food tract loses its sensitiveness, and
when food is forced down the muscles
fail to respond. They do not churn the
food as they should. The glands no
longer give out gastric juice to dissolve
the food and render it capable of ASST
initiation. The man has become a dys-
peptic.
There is one sure way and only one
to bring positive relief. Put into that
stomach of yours the very elements
that it lacks to get that food into liquid
form. It takes pepsin, diastase, golden
seal and other ferments to accomplish
this. The healthy stomach contains
these elements The dyspeptic stomach
lacks part or all of them. Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablet is made up of just
what the dyspeptic stomach lacks
Natures digestives.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are not a
medicine, not a drug, not cathartic.
They do not cure anybody of anything
but Dyspepsia and Indigestion and
such ailments as arise from poorly
digested food.
While they digest the food the stom-
ach recuperates. The mucous mem
brane is coming out of its stupor, the
gastric juice is coming to the surface,
the muscles are regaining their power
Every organ of the body takes on new
life, the skin gains color, and the eyes
are no longer tinged with yellow. You
live.
Why doctor and why drug yourself?
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will take
care of your food while Nature cures
you.

CEMETERIES ARE CUT OFF.
Chicago Must Pay High Price for
Funeral Professions.

Chicago, Oct. 3.-The village of For
est Park has cut off access to five large
cemeteries west of Chicago. The vii
lage council last night passed an ordi-
nance authorizing a toll to be charged
to every vehicle which traverses the
streets of Forest Park. The ceme-
teries can only he reached now by the
payment of a vehicle tax, which will
place q prohibitive cost on every fu-
neral procession going that way. The
rates are as follows:
For single horse vehicle, 81
For double horse vehicle, S.
For single seated automobiles. $40.
For double seated automobiles, $50.
In accordance with this schedule,
drivers of -hearses must pay IS to use
the streets of the village Every We
hicle in the procession will have to
pay from 81 to $40
The ordinance, which is said to
amount to a measure of spite, is be-
lieved to be aimed at the Chicago city
administration, which refused to CO.
operate with Forest Park in the late
traction fight affecting the suburb.
