Smith, Yager At Falk. s The man who spends a few months or years in newspaper work has a splendid opportunity to discover the weakness in the human race, and nearly every man has his weak spot. It is also a place to form the acquaintance of people who are given to exaggeration. This word is used simply because it is not quite so harsh as the word lying. Working Night and Day.

A man who rocked the boat, indolently upsetting it ami causing the death of one of its' occupants all in pure fun, of course has been indicted for a murderer by a Maryland jury.

Many physicians are now prescribing Kodol Dyspepsia Cure regularly having found that it is the best prescription they can write because it is the one preparation which contains the elements necessary to digest not only some kinds of food but all kind and it therefore cures indigestion and dyspepsia no matter what its cause. Smith, Yager & Falk. s Farmers are now busy breaking their fallow ground for wheat. Many are of the opinion that next year will be an auspicious season for wheat. The farmers are progressing year by year, especially in the line of economy. Hearetofore they would break most of the ground that was to be sown in wheat but now wheat is sown mostly among the corn, thus avoiding a large amount of extra work. Geo. W. Lane. Pewamo, Mich., writes: “Your Kodol Dyspepsia Cure is the best remedy for indigestion and stomach trouble that I ever used. For years I suffered from dyspepsia, at times compelling me to stay in bed and causing me untold agony. lam completely cured by Kodol Dyspepsia Cure.

The auditor of state has notified all state bank directors that they must see to it that every president and cashier shall execute and constantly maintain seperate bonds with sureties in such sums as the board of directors deem proper. These bonds should be kept on file with the secretary of state. The letter is written in answer to inquiries for executing annual bonds. The auditor says in his opinion it is not necessary to give a new bond annually. There is more catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to lie incur able. For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease, and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treat ment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitutional disease, and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney Ac Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the market, it is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoon ful. It acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. They offer one him dial dollars for any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials. Address, F. .1.

Mr. G. A. Stillman, a merchant of Tampico, 111., writes: “Foley’s Kidney Cure is meeting with wonderful success. It has cured more cases here that physicians pronounced incurable. 1 myself am able to testify to its merits. My face today is a living picture of health, and Foley’s Kidney Cure has made it such.” Holthouse, Callow & Co. s A good many people will stand around and keep mum about a good item of news, when the reporter asks them for au item they say they don’t know any. Then when the paper is printed they come beefing with “Why didn’t you print about so-and-so? I could have told about that if I’d s’posed you wanted it.” The best way is to tell what you know and allowjus to be the judge of what should be printed. A communication. Mr. Editor - Allow me to speak a few words in favor of Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy. I suffered for three'years with bronchitis and could not sleep at nights. I tried several doctors and various patent medicines, but could get nothing to give me any relief until my wife got a bottle of this valuable medicine, which has completely relieved me. W. S.

It is said that a larger percent of applicants for teachers' licenses failed this year than for several years past. The questions are more difficult and are intended to raise the standard for teachers. Another reason why a larger percent of the teachers have failed is that many old teachers, who have been exempt from examination, have been required to pass in order to have a basis for their salary. No teachers will teach in the state of Indiana this year who have license that are not in force. A Night of Terror. “Awful anxiety was felt for the widow of the brave General Burnham of Machins, Me., when the doctors said she would die from pneumonia before morning,” writes Mrs. S. H.
