POLICE STATION

Locked Up.

When Frank Matis awoke and found
COW in the garden he had spent
hours in cultivating, he obtained a
rope and led the animal to the city
hall in Wilkes Barre, Pa, demanding
that the animal be locked up.
When he discovered that the head.
quarters OF the police were in another
building he drove the COW to the sta
tion house. Finding the doors wide
open, he led the COW to the main floor
and endeavored to drive her into the
Office of the chief of police.
Before this plan was carried ont
the station house officials demanded
an explanation. and Mats explained
by saying that he wanted the animal
locked up The police at first de-
clined to care for the COW and Matis
refused to move her from the prem
ises. Finally a compromise was agreed
upon and the police took the COW in
charge as city prisoner and removed
her to boarding stable.
Later the police looked up the own

Did you ever look at piece of linen
under the magnifying glass?
Or any other kind of cloth?
You see multitude of small threads
woven together with tiny open spaces be-
tween.
When soiled clothes are boiled, the dirt
is just softened, not loosened.
When you rub them on the wash
board, the soft dirt is partly rubbed into
the tiny spaces between the threads and you
might rub till Doomsday without getting
it all out.
That's why clothes washed in the boil
ing, hard-rubbing way are SO often muddy
OF dull-looking
They're not wholly clean.
Fels-Naptha cleanses clothes perfectly
because it attacks the dirt and dissolveS it.
Breaks it up into particles which are
easily rinsed out of the cloth mesheS.
FelS-Naptha Soap does this in cool or
hkewarm water.
No boiling; no hard-rubbing; takes
less than half the time of the old way.
Saves the clothes; saves fuel.
When you've once tried the
Fels-Naptha way of washing in the Winter
OF Summer you'll never go back to the
wash-boiler and hard rubbing.
Try it next waShday.
Follow the easy directions printed on
the red and green wrapper.

WHY BEvERIDGE IS FOR
FREE SCHOOL BOOKS

publishers and Mr.. Beverage may put
through their pet scheme.
Thu total cost Of all the books used
by n child in passing through all Of
the eight grades of the Indiana com
mon schools is 1851. under the present
Indiana school book law. And this sum
IS further reduced by the fact that in
many families the books are handed
down to young children and used over
again. School authorities estimate that
it costs but an average of 90 cents a
year for new books for the ahid
through the eight grades. and that by
the reuse by younger brothers and sis
ters this average cost is reduced TO 80
cents year And this is the awful
burden which Beveridge and the school
book publishers propose to remove
from the parents and place on the
state. There is no such thing free
school books. If the parents does not
buy them direct he must pay for them
with the tax money which he pays 70
the state. 1t al comes out of the same
pocket. no matter which way it is done.

MEDICAL TREAT
MENT FREE
For the First Thirty Days to
Each New Patient.

The object in making this PROPOSE
ton is 10 convince the skeptical.
There is in every community cases of
obstinate and chronic maladies that
are unsuccessfully treated by the fam
lily physician Ny office is equipped
with every modern appliance for the
successful treatment OF chronic dis
eases, enabling me to cure many. cases
not amendable to medical treatment
or medicine alone
In addition to our chemical and mi
croscopicaI laboratory. my Office has
also a perfect electrical equipment as
we'll as other forms of physical treat
ments. and these as well as all examin-
ations, both physical and analytical,
are virtually free to the public No
charge whatever will be made to each
NEW or BEGINNING patient EXCEPT
FOR THE MEDICINE THAT l USE.
Surely, the liberality of this propo-
sition needs no explanation. It is
more especially for the benefit of
those obstinate cases that refuse to
yield to the treatment of other doc
tors. One month is long enough to
enable you to find ct if the treat
ment will do you good. If l benefit
you, l know that you will continue
with me when Vol are in need of a
doctor. Not only this. but it is the
patients that We cure that brings us
our new patients. On the other hand
If l do you no good / have probably
lost your patronage forever.
The liberallty and fairness of this
proposition must appeal to the sick
and afflicted It gives them an OBJ
portunity to test the virtues Of ms
methods and treatments at a minimum
of expense and trouble Remember
the only charge is for the medicine
used
If you have male or female com
plants; ear, nose or throat affections;
stomach, bowel, liver, kidney or blad
der complaint; skin diseases or rheu
matism, etc, etc. come in for a fire,

on Exquisite Sartorial
Creation.

Everything Is in readiness for the AS
sembly hall ball tomorrow night when
Alderman Tim Englehart VIII astonish
the Gary elite by appearing in a gold

1t Rivals Description.
The aristocracy of the county will be
on hand. But the biggest attraction
will be the Ridge road dukes brown
suit. Yesterday Big Tim had the suit
fitted on. The golden rays OF an
autumn afternoon rested on it and
those who saw the spectacle say that
neither the brtlnancy of Josephs coat
OF many colors, the Offering purple OF
Gengis Khan nor the splendor OF the
sinks that Louis XIV wore in the palace
at Versailles exceeds the dazzling
gorgeousness Of the fun dress suit. The
brown flashed gold, it flashed mellow
ness and it flashed yellow under the
SUMS rays and there is no telling how
sumptuous it win look under the cleo
trio lights
According to one admirins constitu-
ent. A 2. Melton. city engineer. a mere
glimpse at the wonderful suit recalls
memories Of golden wheat fields set
. ting suns. and the lovely meadow In the
bloom of summer.
