The cost of the insurance should not

Why. an Oil Polish7

And here, heme-makers, is
why: The oil element in polish is
absolutely essential to all fine
wood! For the same reason that
we oil machinery-water our
plants-massage cream into the
facets oil polish used! The same
principle applies-for wood def
nitely requires this attention to
keep it "alive!" The best oil pol
ish has a fine, non-greasy oil base
and it is just this-when rubbed
or massaged into the furniture
that prevents the wood from
checking, drying out, splitting or
cracking. Furniture will not do
any of these things, when cared
for-and it is the combination of
the soil'' and the rubbing that
prevents it! For the quality oil
polish ''feeds" the hungry finish
keeps the wood young! Other pol
ishes may give quick, easy-to-
achieve luster-but little time
and energy Git should not be la.
bor) on the part of the housewife,
will pay dividends in the looks and
long life of her furniture and
woodwork. All experts agree that
an oil polish properly used (apply
on damp cloth-as directed) is not
only better-it is vital And so,
home-makers, take this important
tip: Always use an oil polish-and
the best one!

= TIPS to
More Combinations

CROP combination is useful with
~ vegetables such as tomatoes,
melons or corn, as well as with
sssmall garden" crops like rad
ishes, lettuce and carrots which
require comparatively less space.
The following combinations are
suggested by Harold Coulter, veg
etable expert of the Ferry Seed
Institute:
Sow dwarf peas early in rows
four to six feet apart; plant radish
between rows of peas, and plant
one row of cucumbers between
every two rows of peas.
Set cauliflower early in rows two
feet apart; one foot on each side
of each cauliflower row plant spin
ach; sow radishes between spin
ach rows. When radishes are used
set tomato plants in the space
thus vacated. Peppers or egg
plant may be substituted for to-
matoes.
Sow early turnips in rows three
to four feet apart; later plant a
row of corn between the turnip
rows.
Give ground ample supplies OF
fertilizer when combined cropping
is practised extensively.

w atch Indians

Oscar Witt has very good chance
Of finishing second this year with the
Cleveland Indians. There are a
number of ''ifs' involved, but his
team could easily provide the key
to the 1898 battle.
If such pitchers as Bob Teller
Johnny Allen, Mel Harder and Will
lis Hudlin get into an early winning
streak, other teams will have a
tough assignment trying to keep the
Indians out of second place. If Roll
lie Hemsley is really serious about
his reform, the team will have
Grade A catching.
The Indians are not an imposing
club at the plate, but with pitching
staff of their caliber, they don't
need the power of other teams.
A while back it looked as if the
Chicago White Sox would be the
team the Yanks had to beat, but
troubles have piled up on Jimmy
Dykes and at present fourth place
looks like the best he could expect.
When Shortstop Luke Appling broke
his leg in a preseason game the
hopes of the Sox went glimmerfng.
The team will be without the serv-
ices of this offensive and defensive
sparkplug for at least the first three
months of the season.
There is plenty of power in the
Detroit Tigers batting order. Pitch
ing will, Of course, be the problem.
Early performances of Schoolboy
Rowe would not justify the hope
that he has regained his once SEN
sational pitching form. But Mickey
Cochrane has the club steamed up.

Hail VS.. Farewell

THE pathetic collapse of Paul
= Deans comeback effort is bal
anced by the optimistic tidings that
Dizzy Dean has apparently regained
his pitching wizardry. The st. Lou
is Cardinals have been worried
about Dizzy's arm. He never recov-
cred any real form after his per-
Torrance in last years An-Star
game. So his showing this spring
was a barometer Of the teams PEN
nant hopes. Now the boys say con-
fidently, ''The big fellow looks
right"
The wise ones in the Cardinal
management didn't permit them
selves to be overoptimistic about
Paul, for they reasoned that few
arms that were as bad as his ever
really recover. But Daffy had high
hopes of making triumphant re-
turn to stardom.
He went frantically from one
specialist to another. Some days
his arm would feel better, but the
moment he tried to warm up, the
old pain would afflict him. His try
out during the spring training sea
SON brought only gloom, culminat-
ing In the announcement by Branch
Hickey that Paul would be waived
down to one Of the Cards minor
league farms.
With Paul Dean back in shape the
Cardinals would have been a men
ace to the Giants and Cubs and
would have to be considered lead
ing factor in the National league
pennant race. Now Dizzy Dean and
Lonnie Warneke will have to bear
the principal pitching burden.

gallon barrel. Muscles, liver and
kidneys are about 80 per cent wa
ter, the brain IS per cent. Even
bone is made up of more than
one-third water, so you can see
that the old adage "dry as a
bone" is not strictly accurate.
No cell can function unless it is
constantly bathed in fluid. Fur
thermore, the cells depend upon
water to transport their foods
through the blood. This alone re-
quires ten pounds of water in
constant circulation.
We may term these functions
an incoming service. But it is
equally important as an outgoing
stream. The cells need water to
flush away their waste products.
And if the surface of the lungs is
not kept moist, there can be no in
take of oxygen, no output of car
bon dioxide.
Without water, no waste would
be carried out of the body. Poi
sOnOuS substances would remain
to wreck the system within a short
time. Water Pushes the countless
channels of physical existence
even while we sleep, for it con-
stantly passes from the body
through the lungs and skin, as
well as through the bowels and
kidneys.

SERIOUS ACCIDENT TO
MRS. H r. MASSEY

On Monday morning Mrs. Henry
P. Massey residing on the Kenton
road three miles west of this town,
met with a very serious accident,
the full effect of which cannot yet
be determined. She was upstairs
attending to her household duties
and in descending a back stairs
which were without bannisters or
railings, by some means she lost
her footing, and fell from the turn
in the stairs to the bottom. When
found she was lying there unable
to help herself. DR.. Dwight was
sent for and on examination found
the back had sustained the greater
injury, the most alarming thing
being that the body was paralyzed
from the chest down and devoid Of
sensation of feeling. 1t cannot yet
be determined whether the back is
broken or the loss of sensation is
the result of a concussion of the
spinal cord. 1t is to be hoped the
latter, in any event it is serious
affair for Mrs. Massey.
