Bookkeeping Service Helps
Small Companies.

Bookkeeping is an important part
of the conduct of any business, but
employment of a full time book
keeper often is found too expensive
by small companies.
However, such firms may have
their business transactions recorded
at a very nominal cost by a firm
which specializeS in keeping records
for small companies.
Many companies either keep no
records at all, or only keep partial
or memorandum records, which do
not disclose the full facts concern
ing operations and financial condi-
ton of the business.
A good set of records, properly
kept, is source of much Satisfac-
ton, relieves much unnecessary
worry and imparts to the owner of
such business valuable information
from time to time as to the volume
OF business transacted, profits, op-
eratiCn cost and numerous other
facts.

Product of City Company
Has Won Recognition
in Three Years.

Three years ago, the first Atlas
Concrete Burial Vault was manu-
featured by Edward P. Egan.
This vault, compared to the article
marketed by Egan and his brother,
Irwin D. Egan, doing business as the
Atlas Burial Vault Company. with
Office and plant at 2120 South Me-
ridian street, was crude affair.
However the brothers saw pos

of the outstanding concrete vaults
manufactured. 1t is Endorsed by
leading morticians the country over.

caskets at the present time is tend

one soon will be on the market, a
still larger vault will be made
shortly.
This concrete case is made of the

inspection of Sheet Metal
on Roofs Is Advice TO
Home Owners.

Sheet metal work on roofs Of
homes, and all metal work exposed
to the weather, should be inspected
carefully before winter arrives, to
prevent the metal being eaten away
by rust.
Protecting the surface of metal
prevents rust from obtaining a
start. Galvanized metal is designed
to overcome the destructive nature
of rust, but even this may be
scratched by ice or other objects
so that rust may enter.
It is not unusual to find that
metal has rusted from the under
side, so that to the eye it appears
sound when, in reality, it only is
awaiting a load of ice or violent
wind to break through.

GARAGE CHOICE
is IMPORTANT
TO MOTORISTS
Drivers Forced to Rely on
Honesty of Mechanic
in Repair Work.

Automobile repairing is one of those
services that are not easily esti-
mated in advance. Sometimes what
appears a small matter may be
found to be rather serious when the
trouble is laid bare.
Consequently the motoring public
is at the mercy of the garage me-
chanic. If the repair is necessary
and the work can be done at once,
the owner wants it, but there have
been instances where trivial repairs
were made the basis for a big bill.
That is one of the many reasons
why drivers should know something
about the garage to which they in
trust their repairs, and should select
one that can be depended upon not
only for skill but also for fair treat
ment.
Location Is Convenient
Because of its fair treatment,
among other reasons, the Service
Motor Inn, operated by ]. B. King
/. at the convenient location of 100
South Capitol avenue, has repair
business which has grown to large
proportions.
Patrons who know what has been
done for them spread the word to
their friends. These are so well
treated that they too become boost
ers. Here motorists will find cont
petent mechanics, proper equipment
and the spirit of service.
They will be able to get work done
without the time wasting efforts OF
mechanics who do not know how, a
feature that costs dollars. Here they
will find their work undertaken with
system. prosecuted with dispatch
and billed with reason, a pleasing
combination.
Work Is Conscientious
Motor ignition, battery, carbu-
rotor work-all of the things needed
to put the car into perfect working
order-can be done by the Service
Motor Inn, and is being done every
week for many satisfied persons.
The list of pleased owners daily is
growing larger.
Motor work with conscience has
proved a mighty good combination
in this company.
Motorists may leave their cars at
the Service Motor Inn and do their
shopping, or attend to other duties,
and return to find their troubles
solved. Also they may leave their
cars to be washed and creased while
attending to business downtown.

is superintendent of Holy Cross

WASHINGTON, Nov. 25. - New
varieties of grain from the oldest
wheatlands of the world have been
brought to the United States De-
partment of Agriculture here by DR..
j. D. Dickinson, who has. just re-
turned from a half-year's botanical
exploration Of the Caucasus region
and other parts of Russia. On these
great plateau grasslands, where
wheat has been grown for many
centuries, DR.. Dickinson found
species of wild wheat growing side
by side with cultivated varieties.
In his search for grain varieties
which may be useful in America, DR..
Dickinson had the assistance of
leading Russian economic botanists.
One of the Russian scientists has
identified seven distinct forms of
wild wheat in the Caucasus region,
which he regards as separate
species. He also has found three
species of wild barle,r.

HEALTH AIDED
BY DRINKING OF
PROPER WATER
..iineraI Product Supplied by
City Firm Is Gaining
Public Favor.

OF all the ills of the human and
animal kingdom nature has devised
some corrective substance OF cure
In many instances this cure OF
article of correction has not been
discovered.
But for that tired, sluggish feel
ing early in the morning, caused
by faulty elimination Of poisons
from the body and sometimes by
acidosis, the Aquos Products Com
pany, 1925 East Tenth street, has
discovered one of natures best
restoratiYes, Jason Water.
This water is entirely natural.
1t is not compounded by the use of
chemicals. It is just as nature
made it, and it has all Of the min
erals essential for the perfect
functioning OF the human body.
Contents Well Balanced
Jason water has been analysed
and ali minerals in it are known
but should a product be manufac-
tured and all these minerals sup
piled the resulting fluid would not
be as complete and healthful as the
one supplied by nature. Man has
completed some wonderful feats
but never has been able to com
pete with nature.
Jason water is not a panacea fol
all human ills. 1t is not a cure-all
However, its astonishingly higf
mineral content is so well-balancec
that its value in the treatment OF
stomach ulcers, liver and kidney
disorders, constipation, acidosis anc
the many ailments arising from
these conditions definitely has
bcen proven.
Sour stomach, gas and headache
after eating often are caused by toe
much acid. Jason water, being ar
alkaline water, relieves this condi-
ton.
Good Health Priceless
The word Jason" in Greek means
Health Giver." Jason, the myth
illogical argonaut, was sent on a
mission to recover the Golden
Fleece" which was guarded by a
fierce and hideous dragon. This old
myth has been taken by the pro-
ducers of Jason Water and brought
down TO the modern day.
The priceless treasure Of good
health has been compared to the
Golden Fleece" which may be
threatened by the dragon of faulty
elimination, and through many re-
peat orders from consumers of
Jason Water, the producers know
that it will give protection from i'll
health if given a fair trial.
Analysis Is Given
According to the Aquos Products
Company officials, prospective users
or any persons interested are urged
to let their own personal physician
pass upon the analysis of Jason
Water. It was made by Paul Smith,
indianapolis consulting and analyti-
cal chemist, and is as follows:
Silica, z grains a gallon; iron, II;
calcium carbonate, %; calcium sui
phate, A; sodium sulphate, So;
magnesium sulphate, "A; sodium
chloride, IT; potassium sulphate,
