This house buys and ships more produce than any house in Montgomery country because they know how to make friends with the farmers and treat them so they will come again.

We notice in the Darlington items of last week of the town undergoing a thorough cleaning. Not so here. The accumulation of filth and refuse of years is 6till clogging up the alleys and side streets. If the whole town was in danger of dying from malarial poisoning they would not be cleaned up.

Little Icy was a beautiful intelligent child when called by her loving Saviour to her heavehly home above to live as one of the angels where sickness and sorrow is unknown and winter never comes. She was a kind, industrious, loving and obedient child,loved by all who knew her. No one knows but the grieved ones how she is midsed from the family circle. The bereaved parent3 have the entire sympathy of the community. Mourn not for we know that thou art gone to live with our dear Lord and what is your loss is her gain. It is true that our life must have its bright and dark hours, yet none are wholly obscured for where the S'm of happiness has set. the reflected moonlight of hope and memory is still around us and into each life some rain must fall and some days must be dark and dreary.

Sleeponin thy beauty Thou sweet angel child. By sorrow unblighted, By sin undeflled.

Like the dove of tlie ark Thou has flown to thy rest, .v From the wild sea of strife To the bome of the blest.

The JouitxAi, last week gave the correspondents quite a talk about home visiting. We object to so much of this home visiting. We take both Daily and Weekly and they both contain a great deal of home visiting and they think it necessary to help make up the paper, and this ic the same way with the correspondents. It is hard to make up a letter without home visiting and in some ca.ses may be the cause of putting a new name on the Jouknat, list. [The above is rather misleading. The "personals" appearing in theJornNAi, relate to those who have left town for a trip to 8-nother town, or to those from other towns who are visiting here. The fact that people of Crawfordsville spend the day with other people of Crawfordsville is never chronicled as every reader of the Jouknal knows. When people leave a community for a trip out of the county, correspondents may note the fact as news but a mere visiting notice is not news.—Ed. JouuNAr, 1

The most wonderful invention of the present age is a Bicycle, a thing with two wheels. Thousands have them, and thousands are going to have them, while a few have them in their heads, but cannot use them, but after they see our beautiful line they don't do a thing but buy one of the lot and throw away the one they have in their head, or the old one they have been riding.

For a Marvel of Beauty and a Joy Forever, a

Cleveland or Rambler

heads the list for strictly high grade wheels. You must see them. While we follow up with a Halladay it is second to none in its elass. Now for the favorite of all, not only with us but with hundreds of the boys in the city and county who are riding the

flahorney Special.

It is all we claim for it and more. It is absolutely-the best wheel sold in Crawfordsville for the money. If you are contemplating the purchase of a wheel give us a call.

Mr. Jack Banta, an expert Bike repairer, has been employed by us for the season. If your bike needs repairing do not take it to an amateur to have it ruined, but let Mr. Banta take charge of it. We »liave an enamelling oven in which we can re-color your wheel any desired color. Don't forget Mr. Banta.

Remember again, we are strictly in the Carpet and Furniture business, as well as Stoves, Hardware, Dishes, Window Shades, Grille Work, Furnaces, Mantels and Grates, etc. We have another thing on wheels—Baby Carriages. They area good thing and we have lots of them. Come and see us. We will entertain you all right. Yours Respectfully,
