has been cooking in Indianapolis restau-
rants. How much food he has cooked,
neither he nor any one else knows. But
it must have been huge quantity in the

How She Overcam e

one OF the most distressing experiences
Of life is inability to get sleep when

relaxation that a weary mind and body
Graves and the lack of which imposes
severe strain on both.
All sorts of experiments are adopted
by people to get sound sleep, and Mrs.
william Waters is not the only Indian
apolis woman who has piled pillows high
to get different position to make breath .
ing easier in an effort to induce slumber.
In some cases, inability to sleep is due
70 nervousness over some purely mental
worry, but IN ninety nine cases out Of a
hundred the cause really is lack of phys
ical fitness. That Is, the stomach. kidneys.
liver or some other part Of the physical
system has become disordered and it's
troubles communicated to the nervous
system. With elimination Of the trouble
at Its real source, the nerves become
steady and not only permit but actually,
induce healthy, refreshing sleep
Mrs. Waters, who makes this state
ment, lives at 537 Lord street she has
been resident OF Indianapolis since she
was little girl She is a member of
the Fletcher Place Methodist church She
says;

dered. had to be very careful about

CHILDREN SHOULD
BE- WATCHED WITH
VERY GREAT CARE

One of the greatest mistakes a parent
can make is to neglect looking after a
child's digestion.
The tissues OF child's body are very
delicate They have not acquired the
powers of endurance which older people
possess. The greater portion of the food
they eat is required for growth and
development
Together with the double strain OF
studying and growing a child's digestion
is taxed to the limit and parents should
see that their children have prompt at
tention should stomach disorders occur.
Thousands of parents say that Pep
gen, the great reconstructive tonic. has
benefited their childreu-given them bet-r
ter digestion-made them stronger-less
restless
Pegen has been a real help to many
an anemic child because it puts blood
of good, rich, red quality into their little
veins and makes them want to laugh
and play.
Parents who want 10 know more OF
Pepgen, how 1t should be given and the
results that may be expected from its
use, may learn of it by asking at leading
drug stores.-Adv.

Are your meals paying dividends az

Every meal you eat should give you

Some folks viii not get plump. The
more they eat the thinner they set.
Something must be wrong. These peo-
pie eat plenty of flesh building food.
still they gain very little strength.
The man who ate and did not get fat
suggested that it made him poor to carry

The too slender man or woman rarely

Plumpness of the body derends upon
the stomach extracting the fats from the
foods that are eaten. When the stom-
ach fails at fat-making, the whole ays-
tenn suffers.
Plumpness does not depend upon the
amount of food that is eaten: it de-
ponds upon the amount Of food that Ia
assimnated by tie stomach. In cases oe

Mrs. Mary Collier of East

Relief by Pepgen.

"I could not walk a block without
being so weak that felt that my knees

says at was practically a breakdown.
My weakness was extreme. Ny food did
not taste good to me. l could not get

Pepgen and decided to try 1t. The change

made the same pledge publicly IN
at least three speeches since, it Is
to be assumed that he means what
he says and should have credit Tor
it. The other disconcertlng point
is that it has been brought to light
that Mr.. Herring has been rather
too active in opposing equal sui

pleasing to find him now asking so
earnestly the support OF those

However, the only result OF the

readers as it has tried in vain to
find the answer.
For secretary of state, Mr.. Ram
sew, the republican candidate,
seems to be the proper choice Tor
the reason that he will be, If
elected, the only old member OF
the executive council to hold over,
and there should be at least one
such member on this important
body.
For treasurer Of state, the prefer
ence as plainly should be given to
Mr.. Craven, the democratic candl-
date. The reason for this is that
he is the only farmer candidate
for a position on the executive
council; and the farmers should be
represented there for the particular
reason that there is soon to'be a re
vision of property values for pur'
noses Of taxation and the executive
council has an importantIipart tt
play in this proceeding.
For auditor Of state, the choice
is less clear, though Major Haynes

In County Affairs

A feature of the campaign in
Audubon County that is to be re-
GREETED is that the democrats failed
to nominate candidates for several
important offices. While the coun-
ty is normally republican by con-
siderable majority, it has nearly
always in the past seen to it either
that both parties were represented
at the court house, or that there
should be an occasional change as
to the party in control. There can
be no doubt that this policy is an
excellent one to follow from the
taxpayers standpoint.
During the past four years, the
republicans have been in practically
exclusive control OF the county Off
ces. This year some really strong
opposition would have been whole
some especially because there is an
important issue that needs to be
fought out and settled once for all
i by the voters: viz, that Of put
ting an utter end to the "spoils
system" in the business affairs OF
the county. II we may Judge by
the action Of the present board, We
may be certain that so long as there
is no dangerous opposition, nothing
will be done to put an end to thi
evil, which is costly one to tax
payers generally, in the manage
ment Of county affairs.
AS an indication of the truth G
this statement, voters should OF
serve that the one sole step tina
will be taken this year toward tn
right solution of this issue, is com
ing about as the result of one {
the very few real contests that ar
: under way for the county office:
5 1t is the one for county supervise

' AS stated elsewhere, the two cand
dates for this office are Mr.. A. I
