Tuesday June 3. 12-1 Reports from the May bulletin of the state statistician, now m press, corroborate the early indications that Indiana’s fruit crop will be unusually short. Many of the trees fiowered. but later the fruit did not set. The peach crop was onlv 20 per cent, the first of May. Apples were G- pears 7;>. plums 72 and cherries 74. Many of the peach trees have Iteen killed. Small fruits are in a bad condition and many of the blackl>erry and raspberry bushes have been killed. There is an increased acreage of tomatoes in the counties where that vegetable is largely cultivated. Hold* Ip a Congressman. “At the end of the campaign,” writes Champ Clark, Missouri’s brilliant congressman, “from overwork, nervous tension loss of sleep and constant speaking I had about utterly collapsed. It seemed that all the or gans in my body were out of order, but three bottles of Electric Bitters made me all right. It’s the best allaround medicine ever sold over a druggist’s counter." Overworked run-down men and weak, sickly women gain splendid health and vitality from Electric Bitters. Try them. Only 50c. Guaranteed at Blackburn A Christen's. m Caution i This is not a gentle word - but when you think how liable you are not to purchase for 75c the only remedy universally known and a remedy that has had the largest sale of any medicine in the world since 1868 for the cure anil treatment of consumption and throat and lung troubles without losing its great popularity all these years, you will be thankful we called your attention to Boschee's German Syrup. There are so many ordinary cough remedies made by druggists and others that are cheap and good for light colds perhaps, but for severe coughs, bronchitis. croup and especially for consumption. where there is difficult expectoration and coughing during the nights and mornings, there is nothing like German Syrup. Sold by all druggists in the civilized world. G. G. Green, Woodbury. N. J. ts

Brother!incn In Brockton. Here is a story told by Professor Barrvtt Wendell about Or. William Everetl: The latt r was going out to Brockton one night to deliver an address and ran across Mr. Wendell in the Old I‘ark square station. “Come along. Wendell." he said. "I am going out to Brockton to speak, and I want some one respectable to sit on the platform with me.” So the professor went along.* When Everett arose to speak, the ball, which was a large one. was only passably well tilled, and even the comparatively small number present began to grow smaller as one by one people slipped away. Mr. Wendell began to think that Brockton must be a singularly cold hearted place when suddenly he noticed people com’-g in by twos and threes and silently taking seats wherever they could find them. Soon the hall was full, with standing room only, but still they came till the aisles and walls were lined with interested listeners. The supposed deserters bad simply gone out and told the people of Brockton that here was the greatest man they’d ever heard and gathered them in by the score.—Boston Herald. Won by Hla Wit. A story is told of an English clergyman who owed his appointment to a rich living to a lucky pun. He was tutor to the son of a nobleman and had not long taken orders when 1 _• attended the funeral of the rector of the parish in which the nobleman’s seat was situated. The father of his pupil was patron of the living and was also present at the funeral of the deceased rector. There was a young clergyman present also whose grief was so demonstrative that the noble patron was much affected by the sight aud asked if the young man was a son of the deceased gentleman. “Oh. dear, no, my lord—no relation at all.” said the tutor. “No relation!” exclaimed the nobleman in a surprised tone. "None, my lord: he is the curate, and I think he is not weeping for the dead, but for the living.” His lordship, who was something of a wit and a cynic himself, was 60 delighted with the bonmot that he conferred the living upon the ready punster. How They Do In China. In China liquids are sold by weight and grain by measure. John buys soup by the pound aud cloth by the foot. A Chinaman never puts his name outside of bis shop, but paints instead a motto or ti list of his goods on his vertical signboard. Some reassuring remaik is frequently added, such ns “One word hall,” “A two feet high would not be cheated.” Every single article has to be bargained for, aud it is usual for the customer to take his own measure aud scales with him. When you engage a servant or make a bargain, it is not considered binding until “the fastening penny” has been paid. Although his bad faith is notorious in some matters, yet, to do film justice, when once this coin has been paid by you he Chinaman, cooly or shopman will generally stick to bis bargain even if the result to him be loss. Cigars Are Rights and Lefts. “It is not always because a cigar is badly made that the wrapper curls up and works off.” snld a tobacco dealer. “It is often because a right handed man is smoking a left handed cigar. Sounds strange, hey? Well, a left handed cigar is one rolled by the maker's left hand, for all cigar makers must be ambidexterous. A piece of tobacco for a wrapper is cut on the bias aud is rolled from left to right on the filler. The other piece, for reasons of economy, Is then used and must be rolled the opposite way by the operator’s other hand. Hence a smoker who holds Ills cigar in his right hand sometimes In twisting it abopt rubs the wrapper the wrong way and unloosens ft”—Philadelphia Times. Magnanimity.

A woman who has had experience with this disease, tells how to prevent any dangerous consequences from it. She says: Our three children took whooping cough last summer, our baby bov being only three months old, and owing to our giving them Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy, they lost noneof their plump 1 ness and came out in much better health than other children whose parents did not use this remedy.

Constant motion jars the kidnevs which are kept in place in the body by delicate attachments. This is the reason that travelers, trainmen, street car men, teamsters and all who drive very much suffer from kidney disease in some form. Foley’s Kidney Cure strengthens the kidneys and cures all forms of kidney and bladder disease. Geo. H. Hausan, locomotive engineer, Lima, Ohio, writes: “Constant vibration of the engine caused me a great deal of trouble with my kidneys, and I got no relief until I used Foley's Kiduey Cure.” Holthouse, Callow’A Co. m

The only explanation that is plausible and wise Is the fact that he has stubbornly refused to advertise. Marvelous Work. Many hopeless cases of lung trouble that have been given up by physicians have been cured by Dr. Marshall’s Lung Syrup. This medicine has done mefvelous work that can not be surpassed. Never in the historv of cough syrups has its equal been produced. A medicine that has been tested for years with unbounded results. you cannot afford to pass it by. Try it, is all we ask.

The most singlar circumstance about Arundel castle is that its owner, by mere right of ownership, is Earl of Arundel in the peerage of England, Il Is believed that there is no similar example of a peerage held on such conditions. Apparently there would be no legal obstacle, were the house of Howard to fall upon evil days and the castle be sold to some millionaire, to prevent the millionaire taking his seat in the house of lords as Earl of Arundel. <5 This signature is on every box of the genuine Laxative Bromo-Quinine Tablets the remedy that cures a cold in one day ...Legal Ate’Bing...
