MRS. COFFMAN ILL SEVEN TERRS Saved from an Operation by Lydia L Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound Sidell, 111.—“I was a newous wreck. I was snff jring from a pain in my left uiae, wmcn was al most unbearable, and I could not even let the bed clothing rest on my body at night. I had been sick for seven years, but not so bad until the last eighteenmonths,and had become so run down that I cared for nobody, and would rather have died than live. I couldn't do my work without help, and the doctors told me that an operation was all there was left I would not consent to that, so my husband brought me a bottle of Lydia E. Pink ham’s Vegetable Compound and begged me to take it. I have taken fourteen bot tles of it and I feel ten years younger. Life is full of hope. I do all my house work and had a large garden this year. I never will be without the Vegetable Compound in the house, and when my two little girls reach womanhood I in tend to teach them to take it. I am never too busy to tell some suffering sister of my help, and you can use my name and letter to spread the good news of Lydia E.Pinkham’s medicines." —Mrs. Ida M.Coffman, R.B.2, Sidell 111 CHKSEBROUGH MANUFACTURING OX tCoaooUdatod) SIAM Itmt N«« Tor* Vaseline RegU&Ru.OS Yellow or White PETROLEUM JEIUT I Coughs, Colds, Distemper, Influenza, I I Heaves and Worms among horses and I I mules.

THOUSANDS SEE CORN PALACE Big Crowd Attends Open* ing of Exposition at Mitchell Monday Night Mitchell, S. D., Sept. 24.—Mitchell’s first night audience at the opening ehow of the corn palace this year was composed mostly of home folks, but the big building was packed and jammed to capacity, it being estimat ed that upwards of 5,000 people saw the first show. Lowering clouds and a slight chill in the air Monday night seem to preage rain for Tues day. But in spite of the outlook it is expected that Tuesday will be one of the biggest days of the week, for it is Patriotic Day and members of both the 147th Field artilery and the old Fourth (South Dakota) in fantry will hold their reunions here. Gen. G. B. Duncan, commander of • the Seventh army corps, who saw service on the front line in France, will speak to the veterans. Streets are crowded yith concession men and the big free acts, which cul of the Gates flying circus, are pro ing big drawing cards. Reservation of seats at the corn palace itself is proving a highly suc cessful plan and both telegraph and telephones were kept busy Monday placing sdat reservations. Ann effort was made to break in to the corn palace Sunday night and steal the pearl costumes, which Ernie Young uses in one of his fea ture numbers of the Passing Parade of 1923. The effort was unsuccess ful, but as a result, W. H. King, chairman of the corn palace commit tee, immediately engaged two night watchmen who will be on duty the remainder of the week. DISLIKES PLAN OF GOVERNMENT ■» Governor Bryan Asserts It Will Not Bring Cheaper Coal to People Lincoln, Neb., Sept. 25.—Governor Bryan of Nebraska, when informed that tihe U. S. coal commission had recommended to President Coolidge the creation of a division of the in terstate commerce commission to supervise the coal industry said that he could not see in this move "any reduction of coal prices for the peo ple.” “The people want results” the Ne braska executive declared, "and they would like to have the results from individuals they have elected a’nd not from appointive officers.” "These investigations of the coal, oil and gas industries by congress have resulted in nothing of value to the public” Governor Bryan stated adding that “the federal govern ment has the authority to take over and operate the coal mines the same as it had to take over the railroads and in my opinion the federal gov ernment should take over the mines and the oil industry and operate these in tihe behalf of the people until plans could be made to regulate the industries in the interests of the people of the U. S.” LOCAL TAXES ARE UP AND STATE DOWN. Lincoln, Neb., Sept. 25.—While state taxes undier the 1923 levy have been reduced $943,392.66, a net in crease of $174,545.08 Is shown in the local taxes of the ninety-three coun ties in Nebraska, according to a ta ble compiled by State Tax Commis sioner W.

D„ states that he is not the John Shilvin of Hot Springs, S. D., who is alleged to have been found guilty of fraud in Federal Court through the sale of worthless stocks on April 12, at Sioux Falls. Under the proclamation the pas sive resistance in the Ruhr is ordered abandons dwithout conditions at tached, although the government ex pects concessions from the French in the Ruhr and Rhineland, lncludigg resumption of, German administra tion, the release of prisoners and the return of all deported Germans. Tension at High Pitch. The iinmience of German surrender has kept the tension at a high pitch. All day Monday the danger of a “putsch” seemed so real, that extra ordinary measures to cope with any uprising were taken all along the line. The minister of defense sent the Bavarian reichswehr contingent (na tional guard) to Wurtemburg; orde rd the Wurtemburg contingent to Saxony—and sent the Saxon troops to Bavaria. The government believes these dislocationas will break up whatever connections may exist be tween certain reichsw’ehr formations and secret organizations. Police in Readiness. The Saxon contingent, which is regarded as the most dependable for the republic, has been concentrated at Grafeonwoerth, and Commander in Chief Von Seeckt has assured Chancellor Stresemann that the reichswehr will be able to crush any “putsch,” either from the right or left The Berlin police are held in readi ness for any alarm. Among the important conferences was one occupying many hours in which the cabinet met with repre sentatives of the occupied territory. Hugo Stinnes was amonw thos« present. TUMULT GROWING. London, Sept- 24.—Berlin dispatch es declare that “tumult grows hour ly,” but the Central government is not intimidated by the stream of condemnation for its action in order ing unconditional surrender. Chancellor Stresemann bluntly I asked one protesting deputation: “Do you want to go to war with France? The government has made up its mind that is must either fight or capitulate, as passive resistance is no longer possible.” The London Daily News parlia mentary correspondent says that it is probable that the German sur render will be followed by an allied conference. GIVEN $10,000 FOR WIFE'S LOVE Sioux Falls Man ins Case on Two Counts—Divorce Action Next Sioux Falls, S. D„ Sept. 25.—Ten thousand dollars for the alienation of his wife’s affections must be paid to Fred Huizenga by Henry Groenewald, by decision of a jury of 12 men in Judge John T. Medin's court. Testimony of unusual nature was introduced when various witnesses ap peared upon the stand. 'Several ex hibits held the undivided atention of the jurors and spectators through out the proceedings. Among the exhibits was a letter al leged to have been written by the defendant to the plaintiff’s wife some time ago. This communication began “Dear mamma,” and closed with own papa”. Written at some length, the letter revealed the writer's ap parent strong affections for the re ceiver and in one place emphasized. “My God, Lena don’t work too hard packing; better let someone come in and help you.” SOUTH DAKOTA RANKS FOURTH IN FLAX SEED Brookings, S. D., Sept. 24.—South Dakota ranks fourth among the states in the production of flax seed, being exceeded only by North Dakota, Min nesota and Montana, according to John Martin, of the Agronomy de partment of State college here. The total production for South Da kota is rapidly decreasing and the in dustry wil soon be lost, if measures are not taken to prevent it, Mr. Mar. tin said. THREE IN LINE FOR WAYNE POSTOFFICE, Wayne, Neb. Sept. 25,(Special)— The civil service commission, has qualified the following three men, as eligibles for the appointment of post master at Wayne—Albert Ber ry, J. H. Pile, and B. F. Strahan. These three ranking the highest out Inheritance Tax Reform. From the Chicago Journal of Com merce. James H. Collins, writing in the current Collier’s, estimates that 40, 000.000 workers In this country earn $60,000,000,000 or about $1,600 apiece. Federal taxes consume $5,000,000,000, or about $125 a year per capita, and local taxes require $3,625,000,000, or about $90 per capita. In other words, each of us works one month for Un cle Sam and three weeks for local governing bodies, to meet our tax bills. These figures will Impel all of us to cheer the administration and the budget bureau In their efforts to re duce Federal taxation, and likewise j move most of us to declaim against state and municipal governments which still are deep in an orgy of spending. In discussing these figures, Mr. Col lins makes a few suggestions we can not support. He offers others, how ever, that seem commendable. Among the latter is the thought that our in heritance tax laws require immediate revision ai\d co-ordination. It is sug gested that greater leniency be shown in the matter of small legacies and that, while it may be Just and economic to assess a heavy tax on large inheritance^, some arrangement that tax by installments over a period of years. If a man builds a business valued at several millions of dollars and leaves It to his son, that son Is im mediately faced with the problem of raising a huge amount of money to pay the inheritance tax. To demand liquidation of the business, or a sale of part of it, to meet the tax bill, is unsound. It destroys the unity of the business and may divide it among Its competitors. To ask the government to take an ownership interest in the business is merely to add the govern ment to the management as a tax col lector on the board of directors. It would scem(a logical suggestion that the total of the tax be determined and the heir to the property given g period of years in which to pay. MY FRIEND. By Anne Campbell.
