Should Sloan's Liniment Go Along?
Of course it should! For after a
strenuous day when your muscles
have been exercised to the limit an
application of Sloan's Liniment will
take the soreness and stiffness away
and yet you in line shape for the mor
row. You should also use it for a sud
den attack of toothache, stiff neck,
backache, stings, bites and the many
accidents that ore incidental to a va
cation. "We would as soon leave our
baggage as go on a vacation or camp
out without Sloan's Liniment." Writes
one vacationist: "We use it for every
thing from cramps to toothache." Put
a bottle in your bag, be prepared and
have no regrets. (Adv.)

certain to be recompensed In some

all other crops are reviving from the
moisture of the soli In these days of
lengthened sunshine and heat. The
potato crop for one has advanced at a
fabulous rate since the rain began and
the beans are not behind In growth.
Much more land than heretofore has

Its high price. N'ow and the almost
certain prospect of a still higher one

The Force Feed Elevator and the Relief Rake Make the
Champion Binder the Best Machine You Can Buy
These two features alone should be sufficient to convince any care
ful buyer that the Champion Hinder Is the most serviceable machine
in the field, but when you consider, the many other advantages
found on the Improved Champion Uinder. among them the balanc
ing Sectors which keep the machine perfectly balanced in all heights
of grain, the ball and roller bearings which maka It light running
and easy pulling and the simple, efficient driving mechanism, there
remains no room for doubt of the superiority of the Champion. It
represents the greatest possible Binder value for the money.

EASTERN HEAT WAVE
I CHICAGO, July 13. Heavy rains in
the east and parts of the middle wetit
, served to halt the deadly heat wave
temporarily today, but weather fore
; camera say the torpidity will return
i inside of 48 hours and continue sev-
eral days.
i A two-day respite from the heat
1 was granted to Chicago today, due to
a cool wind that came from the north
! across the lake. It also served to di-
vert the rain and thunder clouds, and
only a trace of rain fell in this dis-
trict. There were no heat deaths to-
day, and only four prostrations and
one drowning. The annual peril of
I rabid dogs, driven mad by the heat,
! appeared today, three persons being
I bitten.
Yesterday's fierce heat was follow
ed in Massachusetts and Pennsylvania
' and adjacent states by heavy rains
I and considerable wind. Wire service
j to Philadelphia Is badly crippled to
' night, indicating destructive storms.
I ft is of ! local nature, however, as
, wires to New York are working unin

mariners, in addition to her crew of
70 men and 12 officers, sank off
Charleston lato today, according to a
report tonight from Captain Hunt, of
the tug Vigilant, which tried to go to
the Hector's assistance. Ho was un

sponneq 10 ner cans wtien she wns
disabled some 60 miles offHhore In

high.
Tho Hector left Port Itoal for Santo
Domingo yesterday. She uttomptod lo
put Into port hero whnn the storm
disabled her, but, acordlng to Captain
Hunt, went down about nlno and one
half miles from tho Charleston light
ship. Captain Hunt said part of the col
lier's superstructure retnalnod about
water. The Hector displaced 11,200
tons, was 381 feet long and was built
In 1908.
