of the enforcement campaign,

"The menace which these liquor

especially with the airplane as a vehicle
for bringing it in, is very serious,"
says Mr. Cherrington.

fertile, but now inaccessible, farm
lands, byt the construction of good
roads' and the means of prompt and
efficient hauling between the fa^m
and the town.
A farm situated on a good road
and using motor truck transportation
is independent of the railroad.
Indeed the farmer can select his
own markets, operate on his own

of delivery, than if his farm were lo- .

___
In answer to the thousands of inquiries
about El Vigor, that have
Ibeen made in the past week, Dr. R. ^
L. Eaton, the manufacturer, gave
.out the following statement for
> nnhliceition:
"1 do not claim to have made a
new discovery in the field of medi- p
cine,*' said Dr. Eaton, "for the in- j
gredients of El Vigor have been t
prescribed for treatment of blood, c
liver and stomach troubles ever t
' since mankind began to have such
troubles. The Indians used roots t
and herbs to treat both young and ^
old. The ancient Monks prepared
medicines from peculiar rocks and p
stones and modern medicines are v
founded on the discoveries of the n
great men of science. c
"El Vigor contains no opiate or jj
harmful drug. It contains less L
than ten per cent alcohol, and that|e
only in combination with such medi-l
cinea as require it to make them t
in solution. L
"On every hill in the South, may g
1 ' in tV,o onrinclf
I ue 1UUHU UIVVUIIIIB >u ??V W, o .
the herbs and roots that are used g
!in making El Vigor. The other in- ?
gredients are taken from nature's i
laboratory in forms of minerals that j
have a special duty to perform in i
medicine.
"The chief ingredient in El Vigor t
is a laxative that regulates the ^
| eliminative organs and rids the i
I system of impurities. Next in im- j
. portance is one of the most efficient
* WHor tnnii> aeents known to i
science, for regulating the stomach'
and digestive organs. Then, of no
| less importance, is an ingredient
designed to act on the liver and
| kidneys. Another ingredient is di|
rected to th$ purifying of the
blood, and the treatment of skin
' disorders. The entire formula is
printed on every bottle and the patient
may know what he is taking.
"I have the signed statement of
hundreds of southern people telling
? how El Vigor has relieved them of
Rheumatism, Liver Trouble, Indigestion,
nervousness, skin disorders imf
pure blood, rundown condition, and
< kindred disorders. These will soon
s appear in the papers."?(adv.lt.)
mon task for the Indiana Farm Truck
This particular truck is absolutely
without an equal in its record of performance
for farm use.
It will go anywhere in the fiel''
where a team can pull an empty wagon,
and it is built exactly in the
right capacity, with oversize pneu->
matic tires, to make riding as easy a
a passenger car.
No other truck is built that so com-1
pletely meets the all the year around
needs of the farmers of this section
as this Indiana Farm Truck.
It provides an economical farm
lighting plant, grind y^ur corn,
saws your wood, runs a threshing machine,
or any piece of machinery requiring
a belt drive and in case of
emergency it will make an excellent
fire fighter.

"W^res, letters and telephone calls

or El Vigor, and that fact is very
;ratifying. I want the leading druggists

"It is encouraging indeed to note
hat the druggists who bought El
figor four or five months ago, have
e-ordered time and time again, and
ire still buying it in large quantities.
"While the demand is already great
t is increasing with every mail, and
