Will Bore For Gas.

The business men and citizens generally of Covington, are awaiting impatiently for Oct. 10, to roll around. On that date the boring for gas by tho company recently organized there, will commence, and upon the result of that boring it is felt that much of the commercial future of the town depends. Visions of another Muncie, but on the banks of tho Wabash this time, are flitting through the brains of the denizens of the quiet river town. James Allen, jr., one of the stockholders of the company, says the company expects to meet with succese. In company with several other stockholders, be has just returned from a tour of investigation throughout the gas belt. A Muncie Arm has been engaged to do the boring and contracted to begin October iO. In the meantime, the well on the Billsland farm near Covington, is stronger than ever.

Roasted the l,atayettc Carnival.

Several of the Lafayette ministers took occasion Sunday to preach sermons in which the late carnival and street fair in that city was handled without gloves. One of the reverend gentlemen stated that the muscle dancing and the poses plastique by several coy females was a very disgusting and immoral exhibition and condemned the carnival managers very severely. The association made $3,000 out of the carnival. None of the people from this city evidently saw th'e attractions criticised, a8 they never mentioned them at all, but pronounced the carnival a very warm number. They were evidently not onto the'ropes.

Center of Population.

The center of population of the United States has been accurately determined by Professors John A. Miller and W. A. Cogshall, of Indiana University. The exact spot is about six miles southeast of Columbus, and the exact measurement shows it to be in the barnyard of James Marr, on the farm occupied by Henry Marr, one of the farmers of Bartholomew county. The spot will be marked by a stone shaft which will be placed in position by the Indianapolis

News.

In chapter xxxiv the devil is seen iw his work of sin and death chapter xx.w tells of God appeiiriiiL: to Jacob at Keihel, where lie had mati.v years before opened heaven to him in the vision ol' the ladder, and it tells also of the deatli of Isaac at the utrc, ot' 1.S0 years of Deborah, KebekahV nurse, and of Ilaehel, the wife ot Jacob, as she jjave birth to IScujamiu it give.-i the names of Jacob's 12 sons and leaves him at Hebron, where Isaac died and was buried. 12-1-1.

Front Hebron to Shochoin. and from Shoehem to Dothan. lie patiently and obediently and lovingly sought them only to experience at their hands their hatred and murderous intentions. When they saw hint al'ar off, even before he came near unto them, they conspired against him to slay him. In Joseph, as in Isaac, we have a womlrous type of the Lord Jesus. When He came unto Hi own. seeking their peace, not only did they, not receive llim. but they persistently took counsel to kill llim (John i, 11 xi. r, Math. xii. 1-1). 21. 22. "Let us not kill him." Thus said Reuben, his oldest brother, desiring to rid him out of their hands ami deliver him to hi.-: father again, for they were not all so hard of heart, these cruel brethren. Wo may hope that Ueuhen. whose name signifies "see a son" (chapter xxix, o2, margin), saw more in Joseph than the others did. but it would only be eternally well with him if he saw by faith Hiin whom Abel and F.noeh and Noah und the patriarchs' saw. '23. 24. "They took him and east, hint into a pit. and the pit was empty: there was no water in it." By the grace of

God and according to His purpose. Josoph did not die in the pit. but was delivered from it that he might in due time perform the pleasure of the Lord. Consider Zech. ix. 11, "As for lliee also by the blood of thy covenant I have sent! forth thy prisoners out. of the pi! wherein is no water." However great or many may be the trials of the righteous, by virtue of the blood which redeemed them they shall be delivered from every evil thing and presented perfect: in the day of the kingdom ill Tim. iv. 17, IS). 25-28. A company of Ishmaolites passing by. Judah manifests his interest in his h'-other by suggesting that they soli him to them. His brethren were content to have ft so. and therefore Joseph was sold for 20 pieces of silver and taken to Lgypt. ITow many things in this sad story are suggestive of the sufferings of

Christ! They stripped Him of his raiment: when they had crucified ITiin, they sat down and watched llim: He was sold for some pieces of silver (Math, xxvii, 0. 28. 3.-1. ."(V). The archers sorely grieved him and shot at him and hated him. but his bow abode in strength, and the arms of his hands were made strong by the hands of the mightv God of Jacob (Gen. xlix. 2.°,. 24). 20, .10. "The child is not. and I. whither shall I go?" Thus said Reuben when he returned to the pit and found not his brother, for tlie.y had taken him up ajd sold him in Reubcu's absence. His brethren would not be apt to enlighten him, so probably he, as well as his father, continued in ignorance as to Joseph's fate. Twenty years after this Reuben reminded his brethren of their guilt and of his desire ,to save his brother (chapter xlii, 22). He did not say. like Cain, Am I my brother's keeper? but he felt a responsibility for his brother's welfare. 31. 32. "They took Joseph's coat and killed a kid of the goats and dipped the coat in the blood." The phrase "a kid of the goats" makes one think how often it is used in connection with sacrifice: "one kid of the goats for a sin offering." See it 12 times in NUVH. vii alone. One cannot but think of God's beloved Son, who for us became a sin offering, but He did it willingly and in love to us, and in love the Father gave Him up to be our sin offering. As they brought the blood stained coat to their father and said. "This have we found know now whether it be thy son's coat or no," they both told and acted a terrible lie, showing themselves for the time beiug in the service of the father of lies. 33, 34. "Joseph is without doubt rent in pieces." So he believed, and his cruel sons let him believe, and he mourned for his son many days, and for 20 years counted him dead. It is trying enough to see a loved one die, but there is a sad consolation in being privileged to carp for and lay carefully away the precious body. To have loved ones go out from your presence in health and never see them again in the mortal body, but only hear that they in some way suffered a violent death, is inexpressibly snd, anil cruel indeed must have been the hearts of sons that could let their father thus believe. "And all his sons and nil his daughters rose up to comfort him, but he refused to be comforted." We do not know how they tried to comfort him, but he might have said, as Job did, "Miserable comforters are ye all." How vain ofttimes are the words of those who really want to be a comfort, but God is theFather of mercies and the God of all comfort, who so comforteth in tribulation that those who are comforted can comfort others (II Cor. i, 3). 30. A slave in Egypt, the property of

Potiphar, an officer *of Pharaoh and the chief of the executioners (see margin), is where our lesson leaves Jacob's best loved son, but God is with him, and we shall yet hear great things from him and concerning him. He is a chosen vessel unto God. and God is dealing with him In love, though it does not look like

"Will bo upon us before we realize it, because of the pleasant weather wo are now enjoying, it would be well to anticipate your wants. There is no better placo to prepare yourself for the wintry blasts than the Big Store with its immense assortment of tho necessities and luxuries in cold weather merchandise. If there's anything neglected in our assortment we've faikd to detect it even in the unusual demand we've already experienced, and if you have aiskod for something we have neglected to supply we would thank you to call our attention to your wants and we will correct tho omission. Our assortment of Hosiery, Underwear, Flannels, Blankets, Dress Goods, Silks, Cloaks, Suits, Millinery, Men's Furnishings and Staple Dry Goods, Domestics and Notions has never been surpassed in tho state, and we have never been able to offer such good values in all our long career. Yes, we say that every season, because it's true. We are progressive, and the values we offered last season, while better than those offered in previous years, are not good enough for this year. "We must be able to offer better each year or we are not satisfied, so it is a constant effort with us to get more value for our money each year. That is the reason the Big Store has grown so wonderfully and is one reason why it pays to trade here. Other reasons are because wo guarantee everything we sell to be juBt as we represent it or your money goes back to ,r just as free as we took it. All prices are marked in plain figures and there's just one price for everyone. Also we never advertise au untruth, so its no wonder our patrons and friends are increasing every day. Just give us a trial for your fall needs and see how- well you will be treated. A trial is all we ask.

Dress Goods and Silks.

Perhaps our strongest departments- While the line of what is usually called Novelties is loss than some former seasons, because of the dictates of fushion, the showing of plain fabrics

so beautitul. Every wanted shade is here in tho materials fashion has decreed for the season's wear.

Cloaks, Suits and Furs.

Preparations have been making for more than half a year in this department. Every garment has been selected with great care and all have been made to order. We pursue this course because we can get better results than to buy from a ready-made stock. It means better linings and trimmings and more careful tailoring, giving our garments a different look from those from other storeB.

Millinery.

Until the Big Store set the pace Crawfordsville lacked fashionable millinery such as cities know, but there is no lack of Btyle and chic now. Our millinery is above the offerings of some cities times larger, and it is our constant endeavor to improve it. Madame Leah is the most artistic and only French milliner ever in the city and commands a better salary than any other trimmer the state. This is one reason the Big Store millinery is better.

Flannels.

Such a collection of French flannels and waistings as we are showing for the fall was never brought together in Indiana before. We invite comparison of assortment and prices with any city store. Thirty-eight shades in three qualities of plain cloths and upward of 200 designs in fancy styles gives a remarkable collection to choose from.

Fall and Winter---The Necessities.

Under this head we group the things you always need for use in the home and for personal

Prints, Muslins, Hosery, Underwear, Gloves, Mittens, Corsets, etc. Not an item has been neglected. Not a thing in tho list you can't buy here as cheap or cheaper than any store in the state, quality considered. The price is not always lower than other stores, but if it is higher the quality is better.

A Few Special Offers:

All over the store we are making special prices on seasonable merchandise that will make a visit to the Big Store profitable. Here area few samples of the many good things we are offering:

Just give/The Big Store an opportunity to quote you prices on fall and winter merchandise before you buy. We are satisfied you 11 buy here if you
