Weak Nerves People cannot help worrying when their nerves are weak. That feeling of languor, dullness and exhaustion is the featful condition which often precedes insanity. The power to work or study diminishes and des|x>tideucy depresses the mind night and day.

Bishop of Kokomo, will ship a solid train load of oak logs from Kokomo to Chicago in a short time. There will be in the load 150 logs 12 feet long and three feet in diameter. A veneering company takes the timber, and the wood will be worked up in fine veneering. Quite a fuss has been made over the quadruplets at Chicago, and the mother of them is at present living in luxury. However, no such fuss or eontri bution will follow the next set of quadruplets. In order to claim attention and get liberal donations in the future, it will be necessary to produce a flock of five babies quintets as it were. Greensburg, Pa.. July 11. 1898. About four weeks ago one side of my abdomen began to enlarge from a growth inside. It grew to such pro portions that it seemed to fill the abdomen. Then dropsy began and swelled both legs and stomach to twice their normal size. The doctors ■called the trouble enlargement of the spleen, and told me I must die. I was removed from the hospital and sent for Dr. J. H. McLean's Liver and Kidney Balm. I took seven bottles and continually gained and am well in every way. The dropsy entirly disappeared and left the growth very small. Michael O’Neill.

This might refer to J. P. Morgan, but more than likely it is intended for a slap at 'Carnegie, who will never see it. How’s 1 his?

Porter, has recently purchased a Landis hard wax.lock stitch, harness machine costing 5250.00. After ten years of practical experimenting by the inventor, this machine was first placed on the market about seven years ago and therefore is no experiment. It has been improved from year to year since that time until it has reached such a state of perfection that it does better work than it is possible to do bv hand. As compared with hand work the machine uses a smaller awl. larger and stronger thread, twice as much hard wax which is melted and pumped into the stitches making them water proof, more stitches to the inch and every stitch pulled in tighter than is possible by hand. A man sewing by hand pulls the thread through hole after hole in the leather thus weakening the thread with each stitch taken before its place in the completed work, whereas the machine uses a new piece of thread for each and every stitch. Buyers of harness on first thought consider all machine made harness as being factory harness, but this is not right, as there is a vast difference between factory made harness and harness made on a Landis machine in Mr. Porter’s shop, because he uses better stock and will exercise greater care in selecting the i>est part of the leather for parts of his harness subjected to the greatest strain: he will also use better thread and give closer attention than the factory to the details which go to make a first-class harness. Mr. Can field, representative of the Landis Machine Co., says he has a standing offer to forfeit 81,000 if harness made on the Landis machine will not out wear hand work when the same stock is used. The general public is respectfully invited to call at Mr. Porter's shop and see this machine work. On Saturday. Nov. 9, Mr. Porter will restitch ripped traces free of charge. Bring in some work and see what the machine will do. Public Sales. Joseph Somers will offer for sale at his farm one-half mile east of Hoagland, beginning at 10 o'clock a. tn., on Friday.

A great many people think a newspaper should have about a page of local news, whether anything happens or not. Deluded mortal! Local editors cannot make people break their necks, commit suicide or do any other exciting things that go to make up the material out of which the local reporter delights to weave paragraphs. The Standard Oil company has drilled a freak well in Liberty township. Delaware county. It is producing fifty barrels of oil daily, has a natural gaa pressure of 250 pounds and throws a heavy stream of artesian water from the same hole. If their is any man in the world who l\as a monopoly it is the farmer. He has it but lads to take advantage of it. Should the farmer put a price on his corn at the close of husking time as does the trust magnate on his coal, oil, and hundreds of life’s necessities, he would come very near getting what he asks.
