If the fire bell should ring wou.4
you run and stop it or 90 and help
to put out the fire? Il is much the
same WAY with cough A cough is
a danger signal as much as fl "

suppress it than to stop a fire bell
when it is ringing, but should cure
the diseas that causes the coughing
This can nearly alwa,s be- done
by taking Chamberlain's Cough

Jacob BollenbacheT, and physicians.
He was carried home and DR.. Brumm,

suited in Mr.. Bollenbacher being TAX

ried and has two children.

Greek, Michigan
HOpewell German Voter NOtFOOI-
ed by Alliance Declaration
and Other ROarbacks.

The endorsement OF Chas. T..
Hughes for President Of the United
States by the German-American Alli-
ance should not be taken to seriously
on November 7th, 1916, by the
German American voters, A little
careful thinking will convince any
German American that Chas. E.
Hughes is supported in his campaign
by those most hating Germany and
the German people and is also sup
ported by Wall Street.
How about r. Roosevelt? He is
the blaekest of the German enemies
There isn't one bit of a doubt when
the money lenders of this country are
placing their money in this campaign.
They are placing II with the Republi-
can party. Why? Because they could
not influence Woodrow Wilson to
come their way and do their bidding
The submarine controversy has
been settled long ago. That contro-
versy is scOrchingly denounced by
Roosevelt, who claimed at Battle
Creek, Mich, that he would have seiz-
ed all German ships interned in
America. That would have meant
war with Germany, and Roosevelt is
supporting Chas. Il. Hughes for Pres
ident.
Now, Mr.. Voter, do you want war?
If so, Vote for Chas. T. Hughes for
President If not, cast your ballot
for Woodrow Wilson for President of
the United States.
Where Is there a President since
Washington who had more to contend
with than our President, Woodrow
Wilson, of today.
The Foreign war, the Mexican trou-.
BILE and we are still at peace with the
world. What would it have been had
T. X. been elected President of the
United States. 1t would have been
war and plenty Of it, you may bet.
Now, Mr.. Voter, if you are for
peace and prosperity make your cross
in the circle on the Democratic ticket
and let the Rooster do the scratching.
Yours,
A GERMAN VOTER.

COMMISSIONERS

The engineer in charge of the Fish
er joint ditch reported to the Boards
of Auglaize and Mercer counties that
no bids were received at estimate and
therefore no sale was made. The
Joint board thereupon ordered the
work reestimated and fixed Oct 81
at 10 a. m. as the time for the hear
ing on the reestimate and reassess-
ment.
The Board found in favor of the
Hattery ditch in Union township,
granted said ditch as petitioned for,
and granted the extension asked for
by E. A. Coil, as follows: Beginning
at the outlet of a tile near the north
quarterpost of Section IA; thence fol-
lowing a natural water course to
whore the petition of Mary A. Hat
terry starts. The Board fixed Nov. 10
at 10 a. m. as the time for the hear
ing of all final matters on the i'm
provement.
The engineer reported the sale of
the Eichenauer ditch as follows:
Part one to Yorkshire Clay Co., for
$1323; estimate $133S; to be com
pleted Feby 1, 1917.
Part two to VIM. ROettger for S47S
estimate same; to be completed Mar.
l, 1917.
Because no work had been done
upon the John H. Blase joint county
ditch, the commissioners of Mercer
and Auglaize counties, on application
of assessed parties, instructed the
auditors of said counties not to place
said ditch assessment on the 1916 du-
plieate for collection as formerly or
dered to collect the assessments in
December, 1917 and June, 1918.
The Board ordered the Brock
ditch sold at public outcry at the
Commissioners office on October rs
at 9 u. m,
An agreement was made between
the board and w. H. Bryan & Sons,
sub contractors on the Mutt road in
Blackcreek township, to deduct $75
from the contract price, parties af-
fected having requested the Board
not to construct said road with berms.
Meeting for a hearing on the re es-
innate of the Addy ditch the engi-
neer reported the increase of the esti-
mate from $1532.22 to $173255,a and
the assessments raised proportionate-
ly Is per cent, No objections being
made the report was approved.
No appeal having been filed the
Board then fixed October "a at 10:30
a, m. as the time of the sale of the
work of constructing said improve
ment,

PROVISIONS
OF New Pension Law for widows
of Civil War Veterans Ex-
pIained by OhiciaI.

Because of considerable confusion
in regard to the provisions of the
law, the following Interpretation of
the provisions of the act has been pre-
pared by H. L. Williams, of Indiana
polls, special pension examiner:
"The new pension law, approved
September 8, 1916, does not grant an
increase to all Civil war widows, but
only to those who are 20 years old,
except when the widow was married
to the soldier before he was discharg-
ed from the service, in which case
the pension is increased to $40 per
month regardless of age.
THE second section of the act
gives pension to those who were wi
dows of Civil war soldiers and who
lost their title because of remarriage.
but who are again widows or divorced
from their last husbands on their own
applications and without fault on their
part.
"The third section of the act allows
pensions to all widows of soldiers
who served as long as ninety days
during the Civil war and were hon
orably discharged regardless of the
cause of soldiers death, provided the
marriage to the soldier took place
prior to June 27, 1905. (Prior to this
law, this date was June 2, 1900
''The divorced wife of a soldier. on
the death of the latter, is not entitled
to a pension under any law.
ITO sum up briefly, a Civil war wi
dow is entitled to $40 a month when
she reaches the age of seventy. II
she married soldier before his dis
charge she is entitled to said rate re-
gardless Of her age.
"All widows of Civil war soldiers
who served ninety days etc, are en-
titled to pensions If they were mar
ried prior to June 27, 1905, the rate
to be determined by the age of the
widow.
In order to secure the increase al
lowed by the law, a widow pensioner
should if she has not already done
sol write a letter to The Commiss-
ioneT of Pensions, W ashington, d. c.
giving the number of her pension
certificate, the name of the soldier,
his company and regiment, the date
and place OF her birth and her pres
cnt pcstoFhce ADDRESS.
Her pension certificate should not
be sent"

memphis Commercial-Appeal,l
There Is nothing so filled with con
tent as the home where happiness
presides. II may be simple one,
but kiss will sometimes make a
humble meal satisfying and sustain
ing; IL will make a meager repast a
banquet.
When man and woman live con-
tentedly together the old theory of
bread and cheese kisses Is no longer
a myth.
When God breathed life into the
lungs of Adam, and he awOke In Ed
en-, to find Eve by his side, even I'm
that earliest day OF the worlds his
tory to Adam paradise was home.
To the good among his descendants
home is a paradise. The first sure
symptoms OF a mind in health Is rest
of heart and the pleasures that can
be found only at home.
When once we awaken TO the real
benefits that home affords we become
convinced that our home joys are the
most comforting that the earth eX-
tends. The joy of parents is in their
children, the holiest JOY of humanity.
1t makes the lives Of men and women
pure and good, IL lifts the parents, in
the eyes Of their children, up to hea-
ven.
When home Is ruled according to
Gods Word declares Spurgeon, an
gels might be asked to stay with us
and they would not find themselves
out of their element.
To the young man and woman who
are beginning the better part Of their
life as husband and wife, home be-
comes, and should always remain
resort of joy, of peace and plenty,
where supporting and supported,
friends and relatives can mingle as
nature intended.
The strength of a nation is to be

Yes, home is the one spot in all the
world supremely blest, a dearer.
sweeter spot than any other that may
be found, and 1t rests with us to pre-
serve and keep it such.
