This is an age of investigation. Everything has been investigated or is being investigated. that can possi- hle bear investigation. Even ihat hardworking body Of men thr cltv council of Nome Is on the brink of an Investigation according to Judge B0ltz. We have not been able to ascertain just what the charges arc in this case but We are under the impression that il will he something along the lines of wasting the city's valuabl" time by allowing q discussion of the ways and means ot building bridges al meet ing whcreat Jndgc Boltz had given notice that he desired to speak. Bc that as it may the awful abyss of in' vestigation yawns before the city fathers.
 It seems to bc everywhere in tho air, this investigation habit It start cal with tho trusts and has Goic OH from had to worse until now the pro- pcnsity to investigate has hc"ome su strong in th" American people that n" official and no department of the ecv- crnment is safe.
 These invest igations. with tl" rS- ccl,tion of that started by Mr. noltz. usually originate in the halls "f tho national legislature.
 Some congressman who is diligently searching for some reason for attach Ing unto himself the large salary and other cmolumcnts that he finds in his pay envelope every month suddenly awakcns to the fact that he has heen drawing down a goodly sum from the people of the United States ani has not started anything.
 Then hc looks all around Washing ton to sec what there is left to start.
 Washington has been where IL is so long and so many congressional pix CTS have searched it's highways anal hyways that there is not much ma tcrial left. Upon discovering this the congressman finds that if he would get his name in tho papers hc must q, farther afieid than the nations capital.
 What on earth can bc find TO in- vcstigatc. It scms that everything under the sun has been covered al- ready.

MALARIAL DISEASES.
How to Avoid Them and the &c., rious Consequences of Neg Iect.

"Fix me up something to knock the malaria, doctor" remarked sallow faced, sickly looking man, entering a prominent physician's office the other day.
 The doctor stepped to his medicine case, took down couple of bottles, mixed a preparation which he handed to the patient with the customary advice to shake we'll and follow directions and resumed Iris seat.
 "Such cases are frequent" ,"replied the doctor i'll answer to question. "The warm days and damp, chilly nights are certain malaria breeders and are most serious in those who have neglected to keep their stomach, liver and bowels in good condition. Such persons are full of the impurities on which the malarial germ thrives, and it is from this class that typhoid fever, pneumonia, Bright's Disease, small pox and yellow fever claim most of their victims whenever these dis. eases are prevalent.
 The proper way to guard against the malarial germ and the serious diseases which follow it is to get into good condi- ton by taking reliable remedy that will keep the bowels clear and the liver healthy, and to continue with it at ire quent intervals during the sickly season.
 A dose of Prickly Ash Bitters three or four times week will do all of this, be- sides stimulating the digestion, improv- ing the appetite and keeping the bodily energy at the highest pitch.
 Prickly Ash Bitters is known every where as system tonic and bowel regu. lator. It not only removes all traces oi malarial poison from the system, but tones up the vital organs. gives new strength and vigor, makes the body strong and the brain active.
 "Prickly Ash Bitters is the best all around medicine for the family ever used. During the past ten years have always kept it in my house Whenever any of my family show signs of mala ria, kidney trouble, indigestion or constipation few doses is all that is needed to make them we'll and hearty again.-W.

DIARY OF FATHER TIME

In the little village of Dormowo,
East Prussia, lives peasant woman
named Hedwig Strawna, who is 11S
years old This in itself is remark
able enough but what makes it little
short of a miracle is the fact that her
principal diet for years has consisted
of pork and sailed cucumbers, and
her favorite drink is undiluted BRAN
dy Hedwig has never heard of the
kaiser, the only emperor in her re-
membrance being Napoleon, of whom
she is great admirer, mainly be-
cause he would allow his soldiers to
steal chickens only. Every morning
she is up at half past five and winter
and summer goes to mass. Then she
works in the fields. She has never
been more than three or four miles
out of her village and declares that
she would like to live for another
hundred years.
Hedwig is in fair way to Guido
Peter Cummin who was buried in
Scotland in 1924, having lived 120
years. 1t is related of him that, COM
ing to the house of a certain Mr..
Brown, he looked round him and ex-
pressed wonder at the great changes
that had taken place since he was
there last. He was asked how long
that was ago, when, on comparison
of circumstances the family found it
was just 100 years.

The Quickest, Simplest
 Cough Remedy Easily and CheapIy Made at EROmee Saves You S2o

This plan makes @ pint of cough syrup-enough to last a family long time. You couldn't buy as much or as good cough syrup for $2,50.
 Simple as 1t is, 1t gives almost in ordinary cough in 24 hours This is partly due to the fact that it is slightly laxative, stimulates the appetite and has an excellent tonic effect. It is pleasant to take-children like it. An excellent remedy, too, for whoopine cough, spasmodic croup and bronchial asthma.
 Mix one pint of granulated sugar with minutes. Put 21a ounces of Pinex fifty cents worth in a pint bottle, and add the Sugar Syrup. It keeps perfectly. Take teaspoonful every one, two CT three hours.
 Pine Is one of the oldest and best known remedial agents for the throat membranes. PineX Is most valuable concentrated compound of Norway white pine extract. and is rich in guaiacol and other natural healing elements. Other preparations will not work in this combination.
 The prompt results from this mixture have endeared iF to thousands of house. wives in the United States and Canada. which explains vnv the plan has been initiated often, but never successfully.
 A guaranty of absolute satisfaction, or money promptly refunded, goes with this preparation. Your druggist has Pinex or will get it for you. If not. send to The PiDex Co.,, Ft. Wayne, Ind.
