In later statement Mr.. kessinger
said
This condition was brought about
not only by the enormous demand
for Orgatonc tablets but by the
districts which seem to be having
quite an epidemic Of Dysentery at
the present time. to say nothing OF
the great difficulty experienced by
the manufacturers in securing sup
plies in the way of necessary In
gradients. etc.
when so many cases of diarrhoea
broke out in several sections of the
country few days ago, we made

WORKING AT TOP SPEED
although the Orgatone labora-
tories have been running at top
speed for the greater part of the
time for weeks and months, and
turning out their full capacity we
have been wholly unable to meet
the demand for this new discovery
In medical science which has been
created during the past few months.
THE wonderful growth and de-
velopment of Orgatone tablets has
been the marvel of the commercial
world ever since It was placed on
the market, and the amazing success
achieved by the preparation seems
almost incredible. From state to
state this new scientific discovery is
known and honored and is now the
most widely talked Of preparation OF

A BILARY DIsINFEcTANT

Thousands of people realizing the
value OF protecting their health
against epidomlcs 80 prevalent at
this season OF the year are now
taking Orgatone five grain tablets,
IL is the people who are suffering
from lowered vitality, who are weak
and run down and who have not
strength enough to throw II off who
are the immediate victims 10 com
plants OF this nature. These tablets
are true cholagogue and hilary
distinfcctant producing an abundant
flow OF limpid bile thereby directly
stimulating the liver cells.
Famous scientists have demon
strated, not only by physiological
work on dogs and guinea pigs, but
also by means of carefully conducted
observations on human subjects with
hillary fistula, that the functions of
the principal ingredients OF Orgatone
tablets are TO increase the formation
and liquify the bile, thus preventing
its stagnation and acting as a solvent
Of cholesterin.
Another valuable property OF
these tablets are their antiseptlc
tendency, thus preventing putrefac-
ton. dysentery and toxemic absorp-
ton.

WEST GOING
REPUBLICAN,
SAYS CHIEF
Manager of Western Head
quarters Says Situation is
Settled Into Final Form
Enormous Majorities.
DEMOCRATS TRADE COX
(By Associated Press)

CHICAGO, Oct. 27.-The political
situation in the middlewest, now set
tied into its final FORM" indicates Re-
publican majorities so enormous that
one hesitates to even mention them"
according to John T. Adams, vice
chairman of the Republican national
committe in charge of western head
quarters who today gave out the fol-
lowing review of campaign conditions
in that territory.
Minnesota will go for Harding by
a very large majority, undoubtedly
above 100000. AS a national organiza-
ton the Democratic party in Mime
sofa has almost ceased to exist
In Nebraska the Democratic Or
ganization is moribund. The Repub-
lican majority in that state will be
unusually large, at least $4,000.
In Iowa, Harding and Coolidge will
win by well over 100000 Senator
Cummins will pull through but he viii
run considerably behind the national
ticket.
Wisconsin Considered Certain.
''In Wisconsin the certainty of an
enormous majority for Harding has
taken the life out of the national canl-
paign. The governorship is in doubt.
I'm Illinois the Harding and Cool
idge majority is problematical 1t may
be around 250,000. l expect to see
Mr.. Small win over Colonel Lewis.
Indiana is expected by the closest
figures to go for Harding by $4,000 or
10000. In Michigan, Harding is safe
and sure, by majority of more than
100000.
In st. Louis an enormous Repub-
lican majority will be piled up. The
state as a whole will go Republican
by more than 10000.
North and South Dakota will show
vote about three to two in favor of
Harding and Coolidge. The majorities
will not be enormous but they will be
sure.
The National Democratic ticket
has been given up as hopeless, and
Mr.. Cox is being traded off for state
candidates.

COLORADO SENATOR
TAKES new ATTITUDE
ON LEAGUE QUESTION
(By Associated Press)

DENVER. Oct. 27-The peace treaty
itself and not the league of nations is
the greatest reason why the United
States should not ratify it, Senator
Thomas, of Colorado, declared in a
campaign address here last night
LAS long as | am in the United
States Senate | will never vote to
ratify it, he declared in asking sup
port in his campaign as national
ist" candidate for the Senate seat he
now holds as a Democrat.
The platforms of both major parties
are silent, practically, on the treaty
and both are ready to accept it with
some reservations" he said. 1T is
rot treaty at all. Every treaty is
a contract and the pact of Versailles
has failed in that regard"
The Senator charged that the United
States SIS directly violating its prom
ise to Germany. made before the
armistice. in demanding indemnities,' -
which he declared were indefinite and
such as Germany never can pay"
Some say Germany had no business
forcing this war on civilization and
that the indemnities are her only just
dues" he continued. Il agree to that
provided we had not contracted to the
contrary beforehand"
Says Treaty is inconsistent.
He said the treaty was inconsistent
even with the idea of a temporary
peace and that the receiver for the
German empire" the reparation COM
mission "can never serve equitably."
"No enduring peace" he said. "can
grow out of conditions which give
such a body more power than the
Kaiser had at the crisis of his rule,
than that of Ivan the Terrible of Rus
sia and of the Caesars"

HECK DAMAGE CASE
DECISION SUSTAINED
BY INDIANA COURT

The Indiana appellate court has sus-
tanned the decision of the Wayne cir
cult court and the verdict Of the jury
in the case of Charles Heck against
Clem Thistlethwaite, proprietor of a
number of Richmond pharmacies, for
damages for personal injuries received
in the Thistlethwaite store on North
Eighth street.
The case was tried in the Wayne
county circuit court over two years
ago and was the first case brought be-
fore Judge Bond as judge pro tenn
of the Wayne circuit court. The jury
awarded Heck damages in the amount
of $500.
An interesting point of law was in
volved in the case. Thistlethwaite ap-
pealed on a denial of liability, con-
tending that Heck, who fell through a
trap door, which employees had left
open, as he was going to the toilet in
the rear Of the store, was present in
the store as a mere licensee in which
capacity he was obliged to accept con-
ditions within the store as he found
them
During the hearing of the case in
circuit court attorneys for Heck ar
gued that he was in the store in the
capacity of an invitee, in effect. hav-
ing been invited into the store to
trade; that the toilet in the store was
for the use of customers.
Judge Bond ruled that the point in
volved was question Of fact for the
jury to determine rather than a ques-
tion Of law for the court to rule upon,
which decision is sustained by the ap-
pellate court.

pcharged that Mrs. Gregg was a patron
of fortune tellers.
AIIese PIagiarism.
The defense charged that Mrs.
Gregg had no literary talent and was
nothing more than a plagarist. The
defense introduced one OF Mrs. Gregg's S
manuscripts which she had submitted
to a magazine for publication and
which had been rejected and at the
same time introduced book, publish
ed number of years ago, from
which Mrs. Gregg was alleged to have
copied her magazine article, word for
word.
Evidence was also introduced to
show that Mrs. Gregg had submitted
song lyric to a publishing concern.
which song had been copied verbatim
from a poem written by Robert Her
rick. Mrs. Gregg admitted these acts.
She also testified that on few oc-
casions her contributions had been ac-
cepted and she had received pay for
them, but the testimony did not bring
out whether her accepted contribu-
lions were plagarisms
