A Kind Act.

The neighbors of E. A. Livengood, near Salem church, in Franklen township, got together one day last weeit and cribbed about 500 bushels of corn for him. Sickness and death in his family were the causes which led to this kind and neighborly act. It iB a blessing to live in such a neighborhood.

Card of Thanks.

I wish to publicly thank my many neighbors and friends who gathered in at my home, a mile and a half northeast of Shunnondale, and husked and cribbed all all of my corn. As I sat by the window and watched the corn come in I felt that Thanksgiving day had come on the 24th for me. I have found during my sickness that good neighbors area great blessing to anyone either in sickness or in health.

From Lafayette.

Speaking of the Randolph-Binford wedding the Lafayette Journal of Wednesday remarks as follows: "Mrs. Randolph is regarded as one of Crawfordsville's most estimable young ladies and possesses much refinement and culture. She has been a great favorite in society ever since her debut and has a great many warm friends to leave behind in becoming a resident of Lafayette. Mr. Randolph is the junior member of the firm of Bryan & Randolph, and is one of the brightest young attorneys at the Tippecanoe county bar. He is a graduate of Wabash College at Crawfordsville, and it was while attending college that he met his bride. Mr. Randolph has just been elected joint representative for the counties of Clinton and Tippecanoe and the future before him, measured by his talent, must be regarded as exceedingly bright. Mrs. Randolph will be given a cordial welcome to Lafayette."

A Colored Tribune Supplement.

The American people live such busy and bustling lives, whatever their occupations, that they do not take enough time for recreation. In many cases, there is no opportunity even if there were time for enjoyment. It is in response to what it considers a need of the times, that the New York Tribune has resolved to issue a colored supplement of 10 pages, full of political cartoons, portraits of prominent people, comic pictures, jokes and entertaining matter., to the readers of its Semi-Weekly paper.

While primarily intended for the young and for those members of the family who have a craving for lighter reading than politics or business, this suppliment, which is entitled "Twinkles," promises to be of interest to every member of the family. There is great need for a low priced popular humorous weekly in this country The present pictorial weeklies, whether printed in black or in colors, all sell for 10 cents a copy, or for $5.00 a year. The Tribune's colored supplement is virtually a 5 cent pictoral weekly, in several colors, worth $2.50 a year. At this price, however, it would be expensive, if sold separately, but it is to be sent free to every subscriber to the Semi-Weekly Tribune who sends to the Tribune direct theregular price of $2.00 a year. This is a bargain, considering the fact that the Tribune is incapable of sending into any family anything which is unfit to be read there.

It is to be noted, in connection with this matter, that the craving for color and innocent entertainment, if not gratified by reader's favorite paper,, will, in these times, lead him to buy less desirable publications. The Tribune is a great, safe, clean family paper, and in adding "Twinkles" to the attractions of the Semi-Weekly it has borne distinctly in mind, in the makeup of the supplement, its obligations to the family.

To get "Twinkles," subscribers must order from the Tribune direct.

The Republicans of Darlington and vicinity were the most harmonious in all their workings during the late campaign that they have ever been. This is just the right spirit, so let. us continue thus in the future throughout our municipal campaigns. We have no doubt long since repented for the way we have done in the las*- two elections. We are on the eve of having a new postmaster and we can't afford to back-bite in this matter. We can rest assured that he will be a Republican, and a good one, too.

Considerable talk is being indulged in now about an electric light plant for Darlington. Some seem to think that an electric light plant can be built and maintained for almost nothing but on investigation they will find out quite different. It is said that Waynetown has contracted with the new plant there for 12 arc lights at $50 a year each, which is very cheap. While in Darlington it would require 18 or 20 which at the Waynetown rate would cost $90 to 8100. This would be nearly three times as much as the 2S gas lamps cost the town now which is S12.50 each. Now can we afford to pay
