vigorates the whole system and ban
ishes the poisons of constipation
which usually causes dizzy head
aches. bflliousness and fatigue"
Just a few days ago. Mrs. Mary
l.. Conley. popular indianapolis lady,
living at S34 Prospect Street, this
city. made the following statement
about Kcnjola:
My liver was in a torpid, disor-
dered condition" said Mrs. Conley.
Eat times during the day 1 got so
dizzy that 1 could hardly keep on
my feet, and I was subject to such
awful sick headaches that l was
afraid to go down town. My head
would just swim, and spots appeared
before my eyes and I would think
] was going to fall.
Constipation had always been
great foe to my health, SO thac my
tongue was coated all the, time and
| felt tos stiff and achy each morn
ing when I got up that I hated to
see another day come. My nerves
were all shattered and every little
thing would upset my whole system,
get me excited so I would feel like
screaming, and 1 generally felt blue
and melancholy. I never could get
to sleep until way after midnight,
so my rest waa broken up, which
caused me to feel so bad each morn
ing. My stomach was also affected,
so that food wouldn't agree with
me and I found that 1, was getting
into a badly rundown condition, but,
try as I did. I couldn't find a
medicine which would help me.
FINALLY I got Konjola, and this
new compound proved TO be just
Chat my upset system had needed.
Now the headaches and dizzy spells
are gone, and my kidneys are not
disordered as they were before, and
my liver seems to be in a better
condition than it ever was. The
constipation is relieved, and instead
Of feeling bad every morning I get
up in the best of health and have
more energy all day long. I sleep
good, and I am not afraid to eat a,
hearty meal now, for 1 don't have
any trouble from my stomach. The
spots don't appear before my eyes
like they did before, and my nerves
have been strengthened. so my
whole system is in fine condition
again.
Il owe every bit of my health to
Konjola, and I will always praise
this medicine, for 1 am glad to
recommend it to everyone"
The Konjola Man Is at Hooks
drug store, Pennsylvania and Mar
ket Streets. Indianapolis, where he
is daily meeting the local public and
introducing and explaining the mer-
its of this remedy. Free samples
given.
Konjola is also for sale by every
Hook drug store in this city, and
by good druggists in the nearby
towns throughout this section.--Ad-

Should End Fusion

Democratic identity will be preserved in the state
primaries next June. The leaders of the party
made wise decision at Valley City and spiked the
pernicious propaganda released from Fargo which
encouraged perjured registration on the part Of
Democrats. 1t was fitting rebuke to the Twin at
any price faction in this state whose lust for office
is paramount. The Democrats in session at Valley
City have decreed that the ends do not justify the
means and there may be some honor even in de-
feat.
Out Of the next election should come the strength
enng Of party lines. Republicans and Democrats
should return to their parties and fight within
their own lines. If the primary law is destructive
of party solidarity. and there be no question but
it is, then the leaders should forward frankly
and fight for the repeal of that law Subterfuge
and sharp practice advocated from the Fargo
headquarters poor substitutes for consistency.
If much effort were directed to restoring the
Republican party to power in this state is cx-
pended in perfecting mongrel fusion. mugwump
alliance many Of the economic would have been
cured by Fusion has done nothing but place
Democrats in jobs they would not otherwise have
had 1t has not made for better government or
cured one Of the ills its champions fought.
1t is good thing for North Dakota that party
lines are to be revived even to the embarrassment
Of the fusionists.

A Useful Life

+ Luther Burbank who passed away in California a
few days ago, won fame in the field of plant biol
ogy. His lifc's work to make more perfect the
propagation of various flowers, vegetables and
fruits He approached his work with daring and
skill that won him international reputation.
He was the acknowledged dean Of plant breeders.
Plants rather than animals, were his pets. His first
success was the Burbank potato. This triumph he
achieved at the early age of %. 1t brought him
neither fame nor money, but what was better it
gave him the confidence and enthusiasm to continue
his experiments in California where the climate made
continuous experiments in plant biology possible.
Continuing farm laborer, he earned enough
to purchase land which was to be his laboratory. He
converted the cactus, worthless growth Of the des
ert, into valuable forage crop. He developed some
3S5 vegetable growths that proved of benefit to
mankind
A useful life has ended, but his name will long
endure, for he has opened up endless field Of

but alcoholic beverage labeled malt tonic fails to
satisfy drinking mans desire to wrap his inner
anatomy around a stein of prc-war, fluffy suds.
Malt tonic appears to be good argument for prohi-
bition, for it is a revelation to who thought
that any liquid containing so much alcohol could be
associated with the discouragng and dsagrccabc
taste accredited to the medicine.
Malt tonic is medicine and as long as it appeals

Get Yours Back Yet?

A magazine man recently told us something
tcnishing about the people in this country who are
trying to write for the magazines.
One Of the magazines he represents, he said, re-
ceives about 200 manuscripts day. The editors
think times good when four Of the manuscripts
received during whole month can be accepted.
Think Of it! Four out Of six thousand
Many people think they need pull to get manu-
script accepted. They don't. The editors are
hungry for talent every manuscript gets
reading
There the first readers and second readers.
The first readers have a hard life Out Of that
mass Of very bad copy they must pick out what
ever at all promising. The manuscripts
they have passed then 60 to the second readers.
These more experienced persons They reject
many the first readers send them, and pass on
the previous few that are left to the editor.
The editor finally chooses the stories that meet
his requirements The writer has good reason to
feel encouraged if his work gets far the editor.
The reason why we sec the same names time after
time in the magazines appears to be because they
are the only ones who turn out the stuff. Of
course, eight million people who trying to
break in will deny this But there the facts.

In other words, wives, many Of thcm have always
believed that husband turned thumbs down a
wife who beautfcd herself and stopped to the folies
of cream and powder and rouge, but solaced himself
by looking upon smcbody eses wife's cheek when

my husband won't let bob my hair MANY
a wife of this type complains to the secret and
fiendish amusement Of her audience, who knew very
well that my husband" enjoys the company and
sight Of bobbed-harcd ladies not his wife.
Is today's wife really given farer deal than
her predecessor? Is it true that she can hold 4
husband by doing what he wants other wives to
do, or does she still play the winning hand when
she is sedatcy old-fashioncd, letting him get his
esthetc satisfactons elsewhere?

Proper Action

: Truth trumphed over political expediency in the
vote on the Steck Brookhart election contest. After
a careful hearing and examination of the ballots, q
Senate committee returned almost unanimous vote
recommending the seating Of Senator Stcck. Poll
tics Immediately began the usual mancuvcrs in be-
half Of Brookhart and for time it seemed as though
the Senate would weaken and vote along party lines
rather than in support of the preponderancc of evil
dencc.
The Senate has displayed backbone in this respect
and the nation generally will approve of the action.
Those who have studied the Iowa senatorial cleo.
ton convinced that the Republicans of that
state did not want Brookhart. They followed out
too literally the instructions in the newspapers
which showed them how to scratch Brookharts
name in the Republican column and over to the
Democratic side in the support of Steck. Marks
were placed on the ballots to make the intention
more apparent and some election officials threw
out such ballots, giving Brookhart very scant
plurality.
Upon careful examination, the judgment Of the
election officials has been overruled by the Senate
committee. The country has been Injured to hav-
ing matters of this kind settled along party lines
that action Of the Senate is quite refreshing and
boosts the stock Of popular government.
