NOW EASILY ENDED
Says Mr.. James H. Allen of Rochester,
N. Y.

1t does not matter to me whether
you are disabled with cursed rheuma-
tism or have only occasional twinges.
| know that Allenrhu, my W discov-
cry, will stop the agony, do away with
the gnawing pains and reduce the
swollen joints,
| know it will dissolve the uric acid
deposits that have become deeply i'm
bedded in joints and muscles and
quickly drive every trace of rheuma-
tism from your body. l know this be-
cause | was crippled for years and
many times was unable TO work, and
Allenrhu made a well, robust, healthy
man of me.
| know because since l cured my
self, hundreds have taken Allenrhu
and speedily rid themselves of this
agonizing disease.
No matter how severe your case, |
urge you to put your faith in the pre-
scription that it took me years to per-
fect-a prescription that made a new
man of me after doctors tried and
failed.
Allenrhu is no laggard; it starts
right in at once; 1t gets into the
blood. searches out the poisonous uric
acid deposit and in two days starts to
drive the concentrated impurities that
cause rheumatism out of the body
through the natural channels.

guarantee one full pint bottle in every

HOME PROVES
LOAN INCENTIVE
National City Bank Accom-
modateS Many People,

Practically nobody has ever
achieved financial independence or
business success in the true sense
of the word unless he has borrowed
some capital during the earlier stages
of his career. Borrowing money Is
one of the most commendable of all
processes, provided it is being bor-
rowed for some worthwhile purpose.
1--WE find" said Miss Josephine
Henley of tho National City Bank,
that home building furnishes a bet
ter incentive for regular saving than
any other. We assist the builder in
saving enough for his first cost, and
then it is always possible for him to
make terms or borrow for the rest.
Somewhere in the hearts of every
man is the desire to own a home Of
his own, the desire to have a house
that will embody the ideals of home
as he has dreamed them. The joy and
satisfaction, the pride of ownership
and the comfort, is worth far more
than it costs.
N"House financing sounds a lot big
ger than 1T really is-it doesn't take
a lot of money to begin, and the eff
fort it entails is outweighed by the
wealth of satisfaction. Rent paying
amounts to a lot of money, and there's
no satisfaction in 1t. At the end of
the year there is nothing to show for
the money expended but some re-
ceipted bills. That same amount of
money. spent for building. would show
a real return--a home of your own. :"

MANY HOMES
NOT INSURED
Stein Insurance Company Has
Speedy Service.

Surprisingly inadequate is the fire
insurance carried in Indianapolis by
property owners, people who seem to
take care of the details of business
very carefully. People whose whole
estate is confined to one piece OF
property will often overlook this very
important matter and in time of fire
will be without means of counteract-
ing the devastating effects.
During the first three and one-half
months of this year the fire loss In
this city totaled 1878, O0S; on one day
alone there were sixty-eight alarms
answered, and yet many people will
go without adequate insurance.
According to Theodore Stein, Sr.,
Of the Theodore Stein, Jr., Insurance
Company, 240-244 Consolidated build
ing, this company is urging property
owners and all other citizens to take
certain precautions against the start
ing of fires; especial attention is
called to the necessity of keeping the
premises free from rubbish, of care
with matches and to be sure that the
wiring for electricity and pipes for
gas are properly AHS1oiAcU anu AZ SOoN
condition.; particular care should be
taken on the Fourth of July and
Christmas, for many fires are caused
then by use Of fireworks and Christ
mas tree candles. Great care should
be taken with benZine, kerosene, gaso-
line and other inf1ammable fluids.
Our establishment is one of the
oldest in the city and our clientele
appreciate the promptness with which
their claims are met through our Of
flee and service that we render them.
Fire is ruthless and pathetically
quick in its destruction, and the peo-
pie who suffer such great losses are
in need of immediate attention, and
it is our policy to see that they get it."
