While playing around a corn sheller last Saturday a three year old son of Mr. and Mrs. Nick Weingart, who reside on the Hogan farm east of town, the youngster had the first joint of his While returning to her home on the J. J. Flusky farm after bringing hef husband to the depot here last Satur day evening, the horses driven by Mrs. Charles Johnson took fright at three passing motor cycles. Mrs. Johnson, who is a very good driver, attempted to run the team into a fence and before she was able to check the dashing horses the buggy was upset and the occupant was thrown to the ground with terrific force. The accident happened on the south highway near the home occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Charles Gibbs. Mrs. Gibbs witnessed the accident and im mediately ran to assist the unfortunate woman. Mrs. Johnson was unconscious when picked up and it was first thought that her injuries were very -serious. Dr. Wells was summoned to the scene and the woman was taken to her home in the doctor's auto and her injuries, which consisted of very bad head and neck wounds, were cared for. At this writing Mrs. Johnson is doing nicely and her many friends hope that it will not be long ere she has fully recovered from the effects of the accident. ;.

Farmers' Review: Trustees of the university are elected by the people. Political parties, however, control the nominations to this office by making the selection of candidates at the state conventions. There are nine elective trustees, and the term of office is six years, three being chosen at each bi ennial election. It is the custom of the alumni association of the univer sity to suggest and recommend candi dates for nomination, and, in most cases, party conventions honor them. This, however, is not always the case, as was demonstrated at the late Re publican convention, when the alumni endorsement was ruthlessly set aside. Trustee Fred L. Hatch, one of the old est, most efficient and active members of the board, was not renominated. Mr. Hatch was not an active candi date to succeed himself, but was will ing to serve and was highly recom mended by alumni and everyone inter ested in the welfare of the university. He is an alumnus of the college of agriculture, a successful farmer and just the type of man the state needs as a university trustee. His work on the board has been earnest and efficient and has been characterized by a great amount of self denial and personal sac rifice to serve the people of the state in an office which provides no remu neration. The only reason for his not being renominated was a play at petty politics. The forces th^t be in party organization attempted to even up a few old pofitical scores, aiming not so much at Mr. Hatch as at the voters of his particular section, and at the same time took the opportunity to gather in a few more political strings leading toward additional campaign funds. Invariably, this is the way of the self ish politician. The good of the people is callously overlooked when it comes to a matter of pulling votes. The ser vice of an untiring public official whose record as trustee is unimpeachable has been lost to the state because of the whims ofrffrofessional politics.

When this is done the "craving" disappears, because, like a cough, it is merely h symptom of a disease and not the disease itself. - Thetreatment is absolutely non-injurious and causes no sickness. There is no restriction or confinement of patients. The general health improves from the first day. Result of the Keeley Treatment It frees patients, absolutely, from all crav ing, appetite and necessity for alcoholic stim ulants. The man is also vastly improved mentally, physically and morally. His head is clear, mind active, appetite and digestion good, eyes bright. His desire for drink is gone, he is disgusted with his former life, and filled with ambition to "make a fresh, clean start."

Abuse will not cure a man of typhoid fever, or smallpox, or brain fever. Neither will it cure him of the liquor habit, which is a disease of the nerve cells requiring special treatment. Dr. Keeley*s definition of drunkenness is now universally recognized as absolutely correct. He says: "It is a condition wherein the nerve cells have become so accustomed to performing their duties and functions under the influence of alcohol that they will no longer perform those duties and func- tions properly and painlessly except when under its influence." There is little or no hope that, unaided, an inebri ate can or will stop drinking of his own accord or by the exercise of his own enfeebled will power. I Information Coupon THE LESLIE E0 KEELEY CO..
