This precip1ta- ted another argument during which Mir. Heard offered the following let ter as evidence that no such endorse ment should be made by the conven- tion:

Grip.

The grip is heli-roaring imitation
of a cold in the head which has done
more to enrich the medical fraternity
than toying with a PROSTATE appen-
dix. 1t is called the grip, because
it has one which would make Frank
Gotch's toe-hold look like the high
hand shake Of a Bar Harbor belle.
The grip is always introduced into
the family circle by a series OF high
explosive sneeZes, which sound like
the muller cut-out on an eight cylin-
der truck. 1t then locates immed-
lately back of the eyebrows and
causes the owner to see the entire
solar system every time he stoops
over to lace his shoes If not attack
ed in the right flank by a. quinine
pill it will settle in the neighborhood
of the thoraX and hang on longer
than an agent who has not made a
sale in two weeks. Sometimes it at
tacks the lungs and causes the pa
tent to converse in loud and sus-
tanned wheeze. One of it's most mel
ancholy effects, however, is to paint
the nose a deep carmine color and
force people to use the shiny, highly
starched department store handker-
chief.
The grip has been used in this
country only. few years. 1t was
brought over here from FRANCE, which
accounts for the large pro-German
sentiment among people who have
had it. A man who has had the grip
once will recognize it at once when
it runs up to meet him, and will try
to compromise with it by wearing
rubbers and drinking deep, noisy
draughts of hot lemonade and home
opathic pills. This generally causes
the grip to take a fresh hold and
linger around the premises until
shaken off by the magic touch OF the
spring nerve tonic.
Some people have the grip harder
than others and are obliged to call in
a doctor, who prescribes medicine
which is intended to fit the standard
bred Influenza. BY the time the mis-
take is discovered, the patient is too
far gone to take anything but oat-
meal cruel and sitz bath, and is
surprised on recovering to learn that
he has consumed $94.75 worth of
automobile mileage. This accounts
for the popularity of the family
medicine chest, which does not need
new rear castings every three months.
The grip would be more hlshly
though of if it would not jump from
one member of the family to anoth-
er and cause the home to resound
from morn till night with the forty
two-centimeter sneezes.

Corydon enjoyed visit Monday
from four of the distinguished citi-
tents of Decatur county. They were
Capt. J. D. Brown, James R. Bowsher,
Attorney Ed H. Sharp and William
Kimport. They drove over in Mr..
Bowsher's big Cadillac touring car
for the purpose of meeting a few of
our citizens. Mr.. Bowsher's friends
are urging him forward as a candi-:
date for delegate to the republican
national convention from this dis
trict. His candidacy has met with a
very warm response all over the east
end of the district and it now ap-
pears that he will receive unanimous
support. It might be said in this
Connection that he is pledged to sup
port Albert B. Cummins and work for
his nomination and he has long been
warm personal friend of Senator
Cumn1ins SO there can be no doubt OF
his loyalty to Iowa's candidate. The
party drove on to Centerville and
back to Corydon in the afternoon and
we're entertained by Judge and Mrs.
III. K. Evans to dinner Tuesday even!
