LONDON PLANS
 MUNY FESTIVAL

London (UP)-Plans for the celebration of the centenary of To. cal government next year already are being discussed by authorities.
 The County Councils Associa- tion, the Association of Municipal Corporations and the ministry of health will be in charge of the festival.
 It was in 1885 that the Munich pal Corporations Act created the still followed to-day.
 English local government goes back to the time of King Alfred, and is much older than parlia- ment, but 1t developed in a very haphaZard manner through tho centuries. When parliament took it's reconstruction in hand, 1t was practically in d state of chaos.
 There was no coordination among local bodies, divisions over. lapped and interlaced. Disputes were interminable, every authority was q law unto itself, and "job- bery and corruption" prevailed.
 Down to a hundred years ago local government was more or less Independent of parliament, and the evil system of "close corporation" flourished.
 So many abuses entered into the administration of local aaffirs that a royal commission was appointed to investigate. It was the recom- mendations of this commission that were brought into force by the i 1885 Act.

Following is his statement:
MY rheumatism kept getting
worse all the time and finally I got
TO where I was in CONSTANT pain
and misery with it," said Mr.. Am
brose. Il had this rheumatism in
my legs, and the joints of my knees
were so stiff and sore that whenever
1 walked I would simply FINCH
with the awful agony, and as 1 am
employed as a collector and would
have to walk 10 to Is miles day
this rheumatic condition made it
almost impossible to carry on my
work
Il tried medicine after medicine
trouble at all, but finally 1 found
Indo-Vin and it proved to be what
l HAD ALWAYS NEEDED. When
I started in to take it, all of that
rheumatism seemed to go right out
of me, and now 1 don't have ANY
PAINS at all. You don't know how
wonderful it is to be free of those
awful rheumatic pains. This med
icine is the most wonderful thing
of the kind that EVER HEARD
OF and I am glad to publicly in
dorse IT,"
The Indo-Vin Man is now at
