Do You Smoke?
Did you ever step in and buy a cigar in some new cigar store, light it, give it a few puffs, find it most excellent, go on smoking and find it continues most excellent for say ten minutes, and then have it turn out a genuine "cabbage" at the last half? You didn't rush right back rthere for another of the same sort, did you?
This is the kind of cigars DON'T sell.

THE INSTITUTE.
It Is Now in Full Blast and the Knrollinent Very Large.
Arthur Weller goes to No. 1 in Ripley. F. M. Lee will teach at No. S in Ripley.
Prof. Warfel is doing institute work elsewhere. D. H. Gilkey will probably teach a Shady Nook in Union.
Miss Ethel Talbot will conduct the primary at Fiskeville. Clyde H. Jones will spend the winter in Lapland, Scott township.
Miss May Talbot |will have charge of the primary at Longview. Prof. Ogg's talks on Civil Govern ment are highly appreciated.
The young America will be guided by E. C. Graham at No. 7 in Ripley Miss Mary Pickett has just complet ed a year's work at State Normal.
Miss Bertha Hyten will assist Ed Siavens at the Sliannondale schools?.--'?: Yountsville schools will be under the supervision of E. H. Cunningham assisted by Miss Lulu Munns.
Mexie Turvey has concluded to stay with old Montgomery and will teach the Bible school in Coal Creek.
Let the teachers all take an interest the school exhibits at the fair and urge the children to their greatest efforts.
C. S. Fink goes to No. 5 in Ripley. Mr. Fink is the smallest teacher in the county but he will oe equal to the occasion.
The Alamo schools will be in charge of the following corps of teachers: Principal, W. E. White intermediate, Miss Sarah Hanna primary, Miss Alta Griest.
The following teachers have been secured for the Ladoga schools: Messrs. Warfel and Brewer, and Misses Clark. Morrison, Dinwiddy, Quinley, and Mrs. Wilson and Mrs. Wingert. "What is the effect on the educational system of the county when the teachers apply to the clerk, instead of the superintendent for license," would be an interesting question for debate.
llome Again.
Jimmie Donovan has returned from Poplar Bluff, Mo., and again adds to the intensity of the heat by his sunny smile and the aurora-like rellection of his cherry colored nose. Jimmie brings the bad news that the Crawfordsville parties who were reported lynched are still alive.
THE MONON.
How this Road Will Handle tlie Passenger Traffic at the Eccampment.
The transportation departments of all lines entering Louisville are engaged in plans for carrying for the increased traffic, but that adopted by the Monon seems the most feasible, and is likely to be adopted by others. The care of the local traffic is the most perplexing task. From points within a00 miles from Louisville the greatest crowds will come. To handle this will put every road to its utmost energy. The Moiaon has- largely solved the problem of handling the local travel. Having been designated by Gen. Lawler as the oflicial route, its through trains will be so crowded as to leave no room for additional passengers from local stations. To care for the local travel General Superintendent Lowell has arranged to put on trains for this business alone. No through business will be handled on those trains. Mr. Lowell's plan is as follows One train will leave Chicago and stop at every station as far as Lafayette. By that time it will be filled, but not crowded, and will run on to Louisville without a stop, save for orders or water. Another train will start from Lafayette and do local work to, say, Crawfordsville, there becoming a fast train. Another starting at Crawfordsville will pick up all travel between there and Bloomington, while one starting at Bloomington will care for the local travel from there to Louisville. This system will be employed for local business, and as many as fifteen or twenty trains a day may be run. Of the through trains there may be more than ten or twelve a day, but local traffic being provided for the}' will all make fast time and avoid over-crowding. Oftentimes during large gatherings trains that start from a terminal point are so crowded before they reach their dBstination that not only are passengers competed to stand, but the trains are so-heavy that the scheduled time cannot lie made.
B. Y. P. IF. CONVENTION.
Art Interesting Session of Workers at N-ew Market.
The Freedom Associations! B-. Y. P. U. convened at New Market, Tuesday evening, Aug. 27, in connection with, the annual association. Delegates from the various local unions arrived early and the churcris? was Ebled some time before the appointed ho-ar. The church, in her new attire, together with the beautiful fier&l deceptions, looked her best, and nothing was spared to make the occasion ons? of exceptional profit and interest.
Bertha Canine, of Freedom ahurch, after a few introductory remarks by Chairman John Deere, talked c-a "The Holy Spirit in the Baltimore Convention." This was intended to be a reproduction of the convention, and if the great convention waa fuller of the Spirit and Christian enthusiasm than was Miss Canine's talk, it would indeed have been a trea.t.
Nellie White, of Wa.ve4a.nd-, tben sang an effective solo, after which Rev. M. Kendall presented' the aim and workings of the Christian Culture Courses (three C's). He dwelt at length upon the importance- of culture and education in the Christian life.
The Freedom quartette rendered a pleasing and appropriate selection, Miss Rowena Fulwider, of Rockville, following with a paper entitled, "Power and Influence of an Earnest Christian Life." After another selection by the choir, Ed Straughn read a very interesting paper entitled, "Iiow to Make the Local Union More Effective in Prayer Meeting and Soul Winning." A song was then sung and the meeting dismissed.
On Wednesday morning a very profitable consecration consecration meeting was held led by Harry Benninghoff, of Dana, subject, "Prayer." A short business meeting was held at which Bertha Canine was elected president, Rowena Fullenwider vice president, and Delia Strange secretary, for the ensuing year. The meeting was then given over to the association. CUM.

Dleiimore Anniversary.
August 27, 1895, will long be remembered by A. D. Messmore, wife and children. For the last six months the sons and daughters have aet aside one day in the year for^the purpose of returning to the paternal hearthstone.
A D. Messmore was born May 8, 1S16, in Fayette county, Pennsylvania. He immigrated to Union county, Ind., in 1837 where he met Miss Abigail Hunt, who was born May 3, 1823, and became Mrs. A. D. Messmore on Jan. 9, 1840. They began housekeeping in Union county, Ind., where they lived for two years, and then moyed to Fayette county, Penn., where they tarried for two years, then again returning to Union county, Ind., where they remained until the year 1856, moving thence to Montgomery county, Ind., where they resided for the three following years. Leaving there they settled near Newtown, Fountain county, Ind., where they haye since resided.
There have been born to them eleven children in the following order: Martha, wife of John D. Brown, who resides near Mellott, and also near the old house at home Charles Wilson, who married JVIiss Sidney J. Kellogg, is a wide awake man of affairs and is at present engaged in the erection of a large business house in the town of Mellott Henry K. met and led to the altar Miss Amanda Stevens. They live in Veedersburg where Henrj7 finds employment in the lumber firm of Osborn & Co. Mary A., wife ot John Stout, their home is near Crawfordsvillej Isaac Newton went down in death at the age of twenty years: John J. found a companion and helpmate in the person of Sarah E. Mclntyre. This amiable couple also reside near Crawfordsville Emily became the wife of Benjamin Stout. There was a kind c4 natural affinity existing between the Messmore g5rlr, and Stout boys. The old saying, "Two crows from the same na-st is not desirable,is not true in their case. Jans and Clara, twins Jane wife of David Jackson, lives near Darikigton Clara found the eboice and- companion of heir girlhcwd to be Alvin Breaks. Mrs. .Breaks was detained at hotne by the illaess of her daughter har son and his- wife were preset to graoa the occasions. Mr. Breaks lives-neasv
The table at the Boon hour- was piaced uaier a large canopy and was leaded with rick viands. R&v. LL H. Gott, of Mellott* retiorned thanks to the give-r of all good for his bounties t® the children ©f men. Afte? the repast muski-and sougs were She order ©f the hour. Miss Clara- Hunt, of Darlington, agedi ten years, gave a. brilliant Prohibition recitation that was warmly applauded. Uime sped away and soon good-byes ware in order. Rev. R. H. Gott made a few remarks by vray of reminiscence and: offered prayer, which closad the ceremonies of the sixth annual' reunion o3 the Messmore family. Soon will b3 the reunion in the great beyond. Wa hope Uncle Andy and Aunt Abigail will meet all their children in the "sweet by and by."

You can leave home after dinner and reach Louisville in time for an early supper. And then when you are ready to return home, all tired out, the Monon will be a prime favorite. Being the short line, and the only, direct line, it must of necessity be the popular line. Fare for the round trip, 8^.05. Tickets good until October 5th.
