Some one calls attention to the fact that all soaps do not require stamps, but such soaps as have wrappers, commending them for disease, such as chapped hands, eczema, etc., must be stamped as proprietarv articles. It is this that grocers and druggists should remember, is the distinction.

The liquor interest at Ft. Wayne is making a determined fight against Geo. V. Kell, Democratic candidate for state senator, because he voted for the Nicholson law while a member of 1 the legislature of 1895. The Sentinel i defends Mr. Kell and strongly urges ' I his election.

Remember that the last legislature changed the manner of marking ballots. If you do not fully understand how to vote, have some one who does know to explain it to you. A pencil is used now instead of a stamp, and to vote the democratic ticket all you need to do is to make an X in the circle containing the rooster. Indiana oil is up to 72 cents. It looks as if the advance was the result of market conditions not brought about by speculators. Stocks are being reduced'. It is said that at the present rate the reduction for the entire month would decline nearly I,ooo,ooobarrels. Oil men say that new discoveries must be made or the prices will continue their upward tendency. The vegetarians of Chicago are saying that the slaughter of cattle, sheep and hogs is is the prolongation of the red hand of war and a barbecue is a most in appropriate form of peace jubilee banquet. They further declare that prunes, cauliflower and tomatoes are, from an epicurean point, the real emblem o f peace. A great many Episcopal clergymen probably would sympathize with the English bishop who said recently: “The two things of which I am most tired are The Church’s One Foundation’ and cold chicken. The hymn seems always to be chosen wherever I go. and kind hostesses, with quite extraordinary unanimity, provide cold chicken for luncheon.” There is a powerful breed of dogs along Smith’s Sound that does not hesitate to attack the most ferocious wild animals. These dogs hunt in pairs and a big bear is a joke to them. One dog can bring dowm a reindeer and kill it in a few minutes. Their thick coat is tawny in hue and in winter a thick fleece of wool covers them. They look so much like wolves it is hard to tell what they are at a little distance. Yellow Jaundice Cured.

Many sailors believe that the frigate bird can start at daybreak with I the trade winds from the coast of Africa and roost the same night on the American shore. Whether this is a fact or not has yet been determined, but is certain that the bird is the swiftest of winged creatures and is able to fly, under favorable conditions, 200 miles an hour.

Holthouse, Callow & Co. o The farmers have no reason to complain ot the weather clerk this fall, nor in fact, have no reason to grumble at the weather for the past nine months. The Lord has been very good to them, and blessed them with abundant crops and fine weather in which to care for them. The only kick they have coming is against the gold standard, for keeping down the price of produce. In parts of the state the condition of the wheat is causing considerable worry. On the account of the backward frosts, it has advanced much too rapidly, and is in poor condition for the winter. Much of it was sowed early, and is as far advanced as it should be March 1. South of Indianapolis many farmers are arranging to pasture the wheat fields or to mow them with a mowing machine. Russian battle songs are written in minor keys and instead of being brilliantly martial are sad, telling of the soldiers fate. The Turks hare no war songs except those they have translated from other tongues. Germany has much military music, and that those in power appreciate the influence music has on soldiers is shown bv the fact that the German army contains 10,000 musicians. This is the time of year, says an exchange, when people like to preserve beautifully colored leaves. This is a goal way to do it: Dissolve somegum arabic in" water, immerse the leaves in the gum water when it is cold. After a minute or two let them dry. The thin coating of gum will preserve the I leaves in color and shape for months. ' Flowers can be preserved in the same ! way. ■ State Natural Gas Supervisor, J. C. I Leaeh. of Kokomo, says that the InUliana natural gas field begins the winter in excellent condition and that no shortage is expected. His constant personal examination of the gas territory leads him to believe that the supply is abundant and sufficient for all purposes, and that if the production l>e limited the cause can l>e found in local companies neglecting to keep their plants in good condition.

Working Woman’s Home Association. 21 S. Peoria St., Chicago, 111., Jan. 11, 1896. Our Working Home Association used Foley’s Honey and Tar six years ago, and are using it to-day. It has always been a favorite, for while its taste is not at all unpleasant its effects are very beneficial. It has never disappointed us. Wishing you all possible success, sincerely yours, Laura G. Fixon, Mgr. Holthouse, Callow & Co. o The Indianapolis Journal utters a solemn truth in saying: “It may [be meekly suggested to the clergy who are reported to propose a campaign against divorce that it may be well to begin with a reform in the matter of marriage. Many clergymen are conscientiously particular of solemnizing marriages; still, there are so many who are not that any couple can get a minister of the gospel to marry them. Such marriages are the cause of a large part of the business of divorce courts.” Discovered bv a Woman. Another great discovery has been made, and that too, by a lady in this country. “Diseasefastened itsclutches upon her and for seven years she withstood its severest tests, but her vital organs were undermined and death seemed imminent. For three months she coughed incessantly, and could not sleep. She finally discovered a wav to recovery, by purchasing of us a bottle of Dr. King’s New Discovery for consumption, and was so much relieved on taking first dose, that she slept all night; and with two bottles, has been absolutely cured. Her name is Mrs. Luther Lutz. Thus writes W. C. Hamnick & Co. of Shelby, N. C. Trial bottles free at Page Blackburn’s drug store. Regular sixe 50c and SI. Every bottle guaranteed.

Usual services at the Baptist church next Sunday. Subjects by the Rev. G. W. Pearce Morning, “Guidance in this life Glory in the next.” Evening, “No room for Jesus, no room for you.” This is one of the most Remarkable True Statement on Record.—lt Is made by an Indianian. He has spent SSOO in patent medicines and doctor bills without being cured. One dollar’s worth of Morrow’s Kid-ne-oids done the work. Many Decatur people are interested in the cure of Mr. Josephus Osbourn, who lives at 925 Jackson street Columbus, Ind. Listen to the repetition of his story and perhaps you will find, you have had similar experience: "For the past throe years I have been afflicted with kidney complaint. M v symptoms were as follows: Fearful kidney backache, urinary disturbances and nervousness from which I was unable to sleep well at night, which produced a general broken down conditian of my health. My condition was so serious that I would lose two weeks at a time from work. I grew so weak that I felt unable to perform my day’s work. I have taken several kinds of kidney pills and all the various kinds of kidney remedies I ever heard or read about without being benefitted in the least. I have been treated by doctors in this city and by specialists for kidney and binder trouble without getting any relief. A short time ago I read about Morrow’s Kid-ne-oids and my wife advised me to give them a trial. I got a sample package and used them, being greatly relieved in three days’ time. Up to date 1 have taken less than a dollar's worth of Kid-ne-oids ami I consider myself cured. During the continuation of my illness I have spent fully SSOO in doctor bills and medicine which amounted to nothing. This makes quite a striking comparison, which is worth your time and consideration. My wife declares that I appear like a new man since my cure; that I am more pleasant and agreeable and not so nervous and irritable. You may also understand that our hearts are filled with thankfulness to be relieved from this great burden, which made our home miserable and unhappy. ’ To confirm the statement of Mr. Osbourn we want you to write him about Kid-ne-oids, enclosing stamp. He is a grateful man and will be glad to write you how much he was benefited by their use. Do not confound Morrow’s Kid-ne-oids with any kind of kidney pills: they are not pills at all but Yellow Tablets and are put up in wooden boxes which sells at 50 cents a box, and are never sold in bulk. Morrow’s Liver-Lax will cure constipation and sells at 25 cents a box. Both of these remedies are for sale by all first-class druggists and at Holthouse, Callow & Co’s drug store, or I will be mailed by the manufacturers 'on receipt of price, John Morrow As I Co., Chemists, Springfield, Ohio.
