company to insure in should be de-
cided by finding out which compa-
MES settle their claims in the most
satisfactory manner. And in this
connection it is important to find
cut where these companies send
damaged cars for repairs and re-
finishing.
If the company sends it work to
a cheap body and fender shop,
there is no use paying out good
money in premiums. But if the
company sends its work to a first
class. modern auto body plant, a
collision coverage policy with this
company really is good investment
1t is significant fact that Don
Herr Company, 122 Kentucky ave-
nue., is getting q large amount of
insurance claim business from all
over the city.
The better class of insurance
companies operating in the state
have learned that it pays to settle
each claim satisfactorily in order
to hold their pohcyholders, and
they have selected the Don Herr
Company because of the consist
emily high quality of workmanship
which has been turned out. by this
plant during the years it has been
in business here.
One of the reasons for the out
standing success of this company
is the efficiency of the organization
itself. The work is divided among
different departments, and the men
in each department are doing the
work for which they are best fitted.
BY combining each man to one
particular job, he becomes highly
skilled and experienced, enabling
him to turn out unusually high
class work.
Damaged cars pass through these
various departments much in the
same manner as new cars pass
through assembly rooms of an
automobile factory-each man has
his work to do and does it in the
most efficient way.
The services rendered by the Don
Herr Company include washing,
polishing, waxing, duco refinishing.

always is ready to respond to
hurry-up calls. The company also
builds special truck and pleasure
car bodies to meet individual re-
quirementS.

ICE REFRIGERATION
KEEPS FOOD MOIST

moisture generated by slowly melt
ing ice is an essential to the best
condition of foodstuffs. Drying
out not only loses favors, but it
actually increases the difficulty Of
digestion.
With good refrigerators, the quail
ity of the ice came under examina-
tons. Living a considerable dis
stance apart, usually homes were
fairly free from dangerous bacteria,
and the streams and lakes from
which the ice came a century ago
were much purer than the present
Congested population permits.
So ice gradually came under sus-
picicn as a source of possibly harm
full bacteria. Hence the manufac-
ture Of ice was begun. The process
in general use consisted Of the
freezing Of pure water into large
cakes of ice by mechanical processes
involving the use of some quick ex-
panding gas to absorb heat. This
method gave an ice of absolute
purity, and with refinements of
processes still is the general course.
That gave the woman in her home
a sanitary refrigerator filed with
pure ice-a most healthful combina-
ton, as well as an economical one
by which no food was wasted, no
fiavors lost and the crispness of
fresh salads and vegetables re-
tanned. No one can have anything
better designed for the purpose of
preserving food.
When the ice supply is obtained
from reliable sources, delivered with
regularity, and the deliverers are
courteous and conSiderate, it would
seem that the acme of comfort and
convenience has been reached.
For years the Polar Ice and Fuel
Company has been supplying that
service. 1t delivers, is equipped for
emergency calls and has cash sta
lions all over the city.

MACHINE SHOP
AIDS FACTORIES
Services Valuable When
r. Parts Are Needed.

A good machine shop can be of
great service to the entire COM
munity.
In the repair or construction of
special parts for manufacturing
establishments, engineers, inventors
and many others who use machin-
cry that is out of the ordinary, the
machine shop can replace broken
parts or design and construct new
parts, thereby saving much time
and expense.
Many firms have had the expert
ence of having a part give way on
some piece of machinery and have
faced the necessity of losing valu-
able time waiting for the part to
arrive from a distant point. When
a special part is needed, it is need
ed badly and in a hurry.
The Many 81 Mayer machine
shop. SIT North Ellsworth street, is
a machine shop which has solved
this problem in indianapolis For
twenty-five years this firm has been
making special parts in a hurry
for those who need them quickly.
With complete facilities for build
Ing machinery to order, general ma
chine work and the manufacturing
of all kinds of parts in large or
small quantities, the Many & Mayer
machine shop is performing val
liable service that should be appre-
ciated by every citizen.
The Many & Mayer Company has
built an organization for handling
this work that operates as smoothly
as the modern machinery in its
shop, Each Job is handled in a syS-
tematic, efficient manner, which
assures promptness and a minimum
labor cost.

Our grandfathers did not enjoy

and food were piled Unfortunately
in the bottom of the receptacle.
Yankee ingenuity soon made
boxes with side doors and shelves,
and the modern refrigerator is a
growth of this idea.
Such refrigerators have been
built with the modern idea of sani-

AUTO RADIATOR
IS VITAL PART
CIOgged Cooling System
Nav Iniure Motor.

There is nothing of greater i'm
portance in the maintenance of an
automobile than the cooling
system" said Vern Reed of Reed
Mueller, Inc. at 111-119 Kentucky
avenue when questioned about the
subject of radiator repair recently.
1T is a fact well-known to ex-
perienced motorists and mechanics
that car will give a great many
miles more service if it never is sub
jected to the damages that always
come from allowing the motor to
become overheated.
Warped valves, scored cylinder
walls, burned out bearings, and
many other calamities are the direct
result of not keeping a sufficient
supply of water in the radiator in
many instances.
OF course, if the radiator is new
or in good condition, the problem of
keeping the water up to the proper
level is not a difficult one; but if
the radiator leaks, even though the
leaks may not appear to be serious;
it is just human nature to forget
to fill it sometimes, and few miles
of driving at high speed may spell
the doom of a motor.
When one considers how costly
the repairs may be when motor
has become damaged through over
heating and on the other hand, how
little it costs to have a radiator
boiled out, soldered, and placed in
first class condition, it is surprising
that so many folks keep on driving
their cars with leaky radiators.
1t is quite likely that there are a
number of motorists in Indianapolis
who really should take the hint
and drive around to the Reed
Mueller shop. Then they can en-
joy the carefree pleasure that comes
from driving a car with good
radiator.

MOVING DAY NO
LONGER FEARED
BY HOUSEWIVES
Modern Service Removes
Danger of Furniture
Being Damaged.

Time was when the man who had
to move his household goods was the
recipient of the sincere pity Of his
neighbors. That was the time the
adage started about three movingS
being equal in damage to one fire.
Then goods we're loaded on dray
with solid steel tires and often frisky
mules, and jolted over streets that
we're little more than graveled
paths. Such thing as care in NOV
ing was not expected-nor was 1t
received often. And when mother
got together what was left of her
things there we're often heartaches
over the damage wrought.
Nowadays, although people say the
world is getting worse in every way
no such football tactics are per-
mitted in moving household goods
The job is done with care by men
who know how, and on equipment
that permits the protection of a
fine piece of furniture.
Each Load Insured
When householders call upon the
Shank Fireproof Warehouse Com
pany, they receive a maximum OF
care and attention to their needs
whether they want to move to the
next corner, or from here to the
west coast. The distance no longer
matters much. Household goods are
moved clear across the country
without a scratched chair or a
broken mirror.
The Shank superior service is
accompanied by insurance on every
load. They put the household
goods in a big padded van with a
capacity of seven rooms of furni-
ture, place special furniture pads
around it and in between, and take
it across country at thirty miles an
hour.
Service Ranks High
The Shank company, 1880 North
Illinois street, under management
of Mrs. Samuel Lewis Shank, presi-
dent, and Irwin Walker, treasurer
and general manager, for many
years has been offering the public
service that ranks among the
highest of it's class.
In a magnificent storage building
about five years old, every provi-
sion is made for storage of goods
in safety and fine condition. This
includes special vaults for valuable
draperies, carpets and similar ar
ticles, with temperature regulated
rooms for pianos and articles af
fected by temperature changes, in
dividual lockers and safety deposit
boxes, and special moth-proofing
service.
Founded by Former Mayor
The firm was founded more than
thirty years ago by the former
mayor, Samuel Lewis Shank.
The Shank company is local agenC
for Allied Van Lines, Inc, a ma
tional long distance moving organ
iZation.
The company gives the best serv-
ice possible, and it costs little.

HOTEL ANTLERS
TURKISH BATHS
PROVE POPULAR
Fatigue Relieved Quickly,
Health Restored by Easy
Method.

One Of the worlds distinguished
philosophers has said there is moth
ing new except that which was
forgotten.
Probably this applies as much tc
the rapidly growing therapy that
makes the bath the medium Of
healing. Scattered all over the
country are famous resorts where
the weak become strong and the
diseased are freed Of their shackles
through the medium Of baths.
All Of them operate on practi-
cally the same principle, and most
Of them claim special merit for the
water used.
There is no doubt that certain
waters are more beneficial than
others, but the great outstanding fact
is that the baths help, regardless OF
the difference in waters, principally
because they aid the elimination OF
bodily poisons.
Perspiration Is Forced
Then, Of course, there are differ
ent techniques employed One
however, distinguishes all of them
remaining in the bath until free
Precipitation is established. And in
the judgment of most medical men
that is what does the trick
This being the case, one is tempt
ed to ask what there is new about
these treatments in comparison to
the Turkish bath. Usually he will
ask in vain, for the Turkish bath is
che of the greatest eliminators OF
toxic matter in the blood yet
thought Of 1t will clear up the
system quicker and more effectively
than one will believe until he has
received its benefits.
That is one of the reasons why
the Hotel Antlers baths are becom-
ing so popular in Indianapolis. A
man wakes up in the morning with
muscles sore and stiff.
PoisOns Boiled Out
He may HE himself to the Ant
lers end literally boil out the

let it go until the doctor sends him
to some water resort where a three
weeks course is necessary.
Under the direction of William
Green, who has had long expert
ence in the famous baths at the
Kellogg sanitarium at Battle Greek,
Mich, and who is familiar with the
methods employed there, the Turk
ish oath may be applied as needed,
and if anything will clear away
fatigue toxins and the rheumatic
poisons the Turkish bath may be
counted upon with confidence.
At the Antlers, too, is the famous
swimming pool, open to the public
every day. This pool is unique in
the arrangements made for the
automatic publication of the water.
Swimming classes are held regu-
larly, free instruction is given, and
water carnivals are on the pro-
gram.

Insurance Valuable Only If

Repair Shop.

Many more motorists today are
carrying collision insurance on their
cars than ever before.
The chances of meeting with a
serious accident on The streets and
highways has been increased many
times during recent years because
of the more crowded condition OF
thoroughfares and the higher speed
at which modern cars are driven.
Considering the investment repre-
sented by the average car, it is good
business to protect this investment
by insuring the car against dam
ages which may be inflicted by COLI

Pinchot's Little Boom.
Seattle Times)


 Political observers at Washington, D. C.. note with passing interest the efforts of Gov. Clifford Pinchot's friends to stir sentiment favoring his candidacy for the Republican nomination for Pres ident. Several western Senators have received overtures from unnamed friends of the Pennsyl- vania Governor but except with Senator Norris whose hatred of MT. Hoover is impacable these approaches have not aroused any interest.
 It is true that Senator Brookhart has urged Republican independents to enter the Presidential race of 1882, and has mentioned Pinchots name; but his proposal has failed to excite en- thusiasm anywhere. It is the consensus of politi- cal leaders that should any member of the in surgent bloc win the nomination, it would prove to be Dead Sea apple.
 It is inconceivable of course that Gov. Pinchot, or any member of the so-called independent Repub- lican group, could be nominated. The Republicans would not rally to the standard of man who has done his utmost to disrupt the party and in season and out has derided it's motives and challenged ts leadership. If the party should find itself so poverty stricken politically that it would be in- clined to turn to Pinchot Norris or Brookhart, it would be time to wind up its affairs and call it day
 AS between Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt the probable standard-bearer of the Democratic Party, and the "blameless woodlander" of Pennsylvania, regular Republicans would have no hesitancy in choosing the former. Happily the party has not been reduced to such dire straits that it will need to make the choice.

MT. Baldwin on the Churches Sphere.
Manchester Guardian)

(MancneSLer GuarQlan)
 It is generally agreed that MT. Baldwin never speaks better than when he speaks matters that are outside the political sphere of the moment so that an invitation to address the National As sembly of the Congregational Union Religion and national life" would to be an opportunity after his heart. But, as he truly enough pointed out to his hearers Tuesday, the subject is too vast for successful treatment in twenty min utes; it would be like trying to get not quart but the Seven Seas into pint pot Nor is it a subject which lends itself to sparkling treatment; brilliance in this sphere usually resembles the head lights of motorcars which dazzle only to deceive. So in the end MT. Baldwns reflections and cita- tons really seem to be reducible to the blameless proposition that religion in national life is in the effect of the religious outlook personal character. There is no proposition he told his hearers 'so convincing good life" so that if religion itself with the producing of such lives its relations to science politics of what secondary importance. Tn so far 1t is an influence character it's place in national life is secure; 1t is not really it's function to challenge either politicians men of science in their own province. "The Churches" said MT Baldwin, should cultivate their own "garden-the garden of religious life, which offered attempt at layman's answer to the question What is the function of the Church in time like the present'?" It is laymans answer, but it is that many who entitled to speak for the Churches would have no difficulty in accepting. Perhaps their number is greater than it would have been twenty thirty years ago, for the secular world bcomes more and interested in mass production the religious mind tends to dwell more and more on the shaping of individual character.

How One Woman Lost 47 Lbs.
In 3 Months and Feels Years Younger

Mrs. s. A. Solomon of New Bern, N. o., lost AT lbs. in 3 months with Kruschen Salts. She reduced from PIT to ITO lbs. She feels much stronger, years younger and pains in sides, back and abdomen that bothered her for years are all gone She says she not only feels better but looks better as all her friends tell her.
 T shall never be without Krus- chen Salts, will never cease taking my daily dose and more than glad to highly recommend it for the great good that is in it."
 A bottle of Kruschen Salts that lasts weeks costs but 85 cents at Juneau Drug Go. and Butler Mauro Drug Co., and druggists the world over. Take one half teaspoon in a glass of hot water every morning before breakfast.
 Attention to diet will help-cut out pastry and fatty meats-go light on potatoes, butter, cream and sugar-the Kruschen way is the safe way to lose fat. Try one bottle and if not joyfully satisfied money back.
