nEAR ANNIE LAURIE:

L am a young man sixteen
years old. For the past few
months l have been going with a
young lady and we have gotten
along very congenially. The other
evening l saw her with one OF nv
boy friends. Seemingly they were
enjoying themselves. much to my
d~ispleasure.
Would you advise US to continue
our friendship. II she Is wiling or
should I seek another? JACK.
JACK: What a foolish boy! Sixteen
- and getting cross because you see
a girl friend with another boy! Ny
dear boy. you are entirely too young
to be taking things SO seriously. You
should be glad and proud that your
friend Is sought after by others,
You are not engaged, therefore YOU
have absolutely no right to attempt
to limit her friendships. Be a good
sport and continue the friendship,
without allowing any silly jealousy
to break up what Is evidently a
pleasant comradeship.

MRS. CARL WHITE

MRS. CARL WHITE
Photo by National Studio, Illinois Bldg.
Store, Illinois and Washington
streets, Indianapolis, does not spend
all his time explaining the merits
of this Super-remedy, for it is his
happy privilege to listen to the sin
Cere and grateful statements of men
and women who found their first
and only relief through the use of
this master medicine. Just a few
days ago Mrs. Carl White, GOA Fort
Wayne avenue, Apartment No. 2, In
dianapolis, called on the Konjola
Man and told of the work of Kon-
lola in her case. There is a world
of hope and cheer in such amazing
experiences and what Konjola did
for Mrs. White it will do for you.
Read every word of the statement
she made to the Konjola Man:
How happy I am that I gave
Konjola a trial and my only re-
greet is that I didn't try it in the
first place. Think of the suffering
and expense 1 could have been
saved.
For the past six months had
been the victim OF a very disordered
stomach. Meals had long ago
ceased to be a pleasure for the food
I ate failed to digest and always
caused intense distress. 1t is hard
for me to describe the suffering
] endured. After each meal bloated
with gas. Pressure of this gas

wildly and often seemed to skip
beat. I was so short of breath that
it was impossible to walk any dis
lance. Belching spells were very
frequent. Due to the liver trouble
I was subject to dizzy spells and
headaches. The weakness Of my
kidneys made me rise many times
night and brought on dull pains
across the small of my back. Final
ly neuritis developed in my Shout
ders and arms. Indeed, 1 was in a
most pitiful condition.
But all that is ended now and
owe it all to Konjola. I had no
idea that medicine could work such
wonders. I was induced to give it
trial by my friends who told me
of its wonderful accomplishments.
Ny case was stubborn and chronic
it was a hard pull for Konjola.
But this medicine did the work in
less than three months. It is amaz-
ing the way Konjola drove the diff
ferent ailments from my system,
one by one. Stomach trouble van
ished first, then the liver trouble
disappeared and finally my kidneys
stopped bothering me. Then the
neuritiS pains we're swept away. To-
day there isn't a trace OF those
ailments. I eat what I please. sleep
sCundly, and am free of all pains.
No words of mine can ever describe
my gratitude and praise for Kon-
lola. It is. indeed, the master medi-
cine"
An unusual case, you ask? Not
at all: the files of Konjola are filled
to overfiowing with the sincere and
grateful Endorsements such as the
one Mrs. White made.
The Konjola Man is at the Hook
/ Dependable Drug Store, Illinois and
Washington streets, indianapolis.
where he is meeting the public
daily, introducing and explaining

new DEAL WILL
Be SOUGHT FOR
POSTAL CLERKS
Workers Object to Being
Scapegoats on Deficit
in Department.

BIZ ScriDDs-HOt0ard Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON, Aug. 30.-Next
week in New York campaign viii
be launched by the National Fed
Grafton of Postal Clerks for adop-
ton of a new national policy in re-
gard to the postof1ce department.
Postal clerks object to the charge
that their department has an an
nual deficit. If an accounting Sys-
tenn were set up that gave proper
credit for free and public welfare
service rendered, the department
would show an annual surplus, in
stead of an annual deficit, they
contend.
The present method Of account
ing, with the talk of deficit, is re-
sponsible, they believe, for their
failure to get new salary increases
and shorter working hours.
The postofice department not only
carries franked mail free, but sub
sidizes private air mail companies
to build up efficient air lines, and
subsidies steamship companies car
rying foreign mail to encourage a
merchant marine, the clerks point
out.
These services, they feel, should
be paid for out of the national
treasury and not made charge
solely against the postoftice depart
ment. Other departments of the
government should be charged with
the cost of their franked mail, they
declare.
Representative Clyde Kelly of
Pennsylvania will introduce bill in
the next session of congress calling
for recognition of the principle that
the poStoffice is run for service, not
profit, and specifying that COM
pensation and working conditions of
postal employees shall be based upon
American standards, without re-
gard to postal revenues.
He will propose also that postage
rates on all mail matter shall be
determined by the cost of service for
such matter, and that the cost of
preferential rates and franking shall
be borne by the national treasury.

southern Ireland and six in northern

 Physical Director III
 George Blickley of 65 Woodland street, physical director of the Bris- tol public schools, is being treated at the Bristol hospital for septic poisoning. His condition was termed critical by Mrs. Fife Simpson, hos pital superintendent, this morning.
 "Envelope' Game Worked
 Bristol was visited again last eve- ming by an envelope" worker. whose activities netted him a lone ten dol- lar bill at the expense of clerk in q Main street store. From the de- scription given the police. it is believ- ed that the visitor last night is the same one who victimized clerk here about two months ago.
 AS in the previous instance, the stranger walked into the store and asked the clerk to give him a ten dollar bill in exchange for a handful of change. He placed the bill in an envelope, which he then sealed, while the clerk prepared to count the money. The count, however. dis closed the fact that there was but $9.75, whereupon the stranger ex- pressed surprise and without hesita- tion handed the envelope. which ap- contained the ten dollar bill, back to the clerk He then took his departure with the explanation that he would return in a few min- utes with the necessary quarter to make up the ten dollars.
 When he failed to return the clerk became suspicious and opened the envelope. only to find that it con- tained nothing but blank slip of paper. While he was counting the change. the stranger had switched pocketing the one con- taining the ten dollar bill.
