A new heating furnace is being installed at the interurban station by the ’Schafer hardware company that is a beauty.

A Kansas man is convinced that advertising pays. He advertised for a lost $5 bill and a stranger, who had picked up one on the streets, read the advertisement and restored the bill to the advertiser. A few days later, while looking over a waistcoat he had laid off, the original bill was in a pocket. He says advertising pays 100 per cent.

The two packing houses are now the busiest places in Decatur in the way of getting poultry ready for, the eastern market for the Thanksgiving trade. Hundreds of barrels of poultry will be shipped from Decatur in the next two weeks and many an eastern home will thus be made happy by an Adams county turkey. The price of these fowls is still quite highNo longer will the young maidens and the gentlepien of Markle need to sigh in vain for some place of amusement as a ten cent theatorium will soon be an addition to the business of the little town. Markle is too small to support a theater but has long felt the need of a popular and refined place of amusement and the vaudeville will probably be welcomed by large crowds.

Superintendent Carns, of the King piano factory, announces that he has reinstated Homer Bolenbaugh as foreman at the factory.

The saloon men of Crawfordsville are preparing to give the Nicholson law another test and will contribute money to back William Lane in the fight on that portion of the law which prohibits pool and billiard tables from saloons. The saloon men contend that partition between the saloon portion of the building and that devoted to the tables, even though the partition may not reach to the ceiling or may have a large archway, does not come within the meaning of the law prohibiting the amusements.

The Packard Music House of Decatur Is a salesroom, selling direct from the Packard factory at Ft. Wayne, to the consumer. We are in position to sell you a better piano or organ for less money than the small dealer, who buys one or two instruments at a time. Besides the instrument you buy of us, has the Packard factory back of it, and your banker will tell you that no better guarantee is needed, because the Packard factory has been tuning out satisfactory instruments for nearly half a century, and hardly any neighborhood can be found but that the Packard Music House has a number of pleased customers, all of whom will recommend the Packard instruments.
