the olvjectP of the new longue is to create a moral sentiment in fav< r of liquor laws. That feature is ull right, but the new society does not ?lo|) there; it goes too far, and. it is s.iid, proposes prohibition. That I is too much ingratitude to the I party in power, which passed the j present laws. Whenever republicans go to hobnobbing with such side issues they invariably get the I worst of it. The Nicholson bill is I all right, but Mr. Nicholson should now retire to private life and ufliliate with the party that placed him I in prominence by endorsing his measure, and not self-constitute himself a leader of a movement I that can only bring harm to the re-

| publican party. IIIn Liver Kxaiiiined.

The Banner Times can see no dire necessity for a “good citizens’ league” such as Mr. S. E. Nicholson, author of the bill bearing his name, is preparing to organize over Indiana. The republican party has given the people of Indiana wise and efficient temperance laws, and provided for such enforcement of them as will place the liquor trallie where it should he. It is now a mistake for Mr. Nicholson to assume the position of leader and go over the state, ns he proposes doing, to organize and recruit a new political party, expecting to get about two thirds of such recruits from the republican party.

Society Notes.

Wednesday afternoon from two to six o’clock Mrs. T. Abrams and Mrs. D. W. Riggs entertained their lady friends in a charming manner at the residt, . e of the former. The lavlies were only assisted by Mrs. II. S. Rcnick, Mrs. James Stone, Mrs. A. H. Morris, Mrs. Clias. Meltzer, Mrs. E. G. Fry. Mrs. J. T. Allen and Mrs. James Riggs. About sixty guests were present, who spent the afternoon very pleasantly. The residence was handsomely decorated, the front parlor in pink French roses and palms; the back parlor in red carnations and palms, and the dining-room in yellow dalfodils and ferns. Last evening a large party of ladies and gentlemen were invited by Mr. and Mrs. Thus. Abrams to indulge in a delightful participation in a “Modern Improvement Society.” Each guest upon arrival was presented with a card of instruction, the ladies to ask the gentlemen their opinions of politics, latest business, literary and social questions, and other subjects, and the gentlemen in turn were to ivsk the ladies how about woman's rights, latest gossip, music, latest novels, Tiilby, or other fads and fancies. The conversation was limited to titteen minutes, which were improved to the advantage of all present. After the guests had been duly unproved mentally, a list of seven conundrums was given to each to answer correctly or incorrectly, according to the skill in the delusive amusement. Some were adept, others just so so, while still others were decidedly mediocre. The successful among the ladies, according to a committee’s decision, was Miss Lillian Southard, although there were some righteous objections made because the winner mispelled a word, but this was finally adjusted. Mr. James T. A1 len and Dr. F. H. Lamtncrs tied for first place in the gentlemen’s list, and the former won by virtue of [lulling the longest straw in a drawing contest. Miss Southard was presented with a handsomely decorated pitcher vase, and Mr. Allen captured a silver paper knife, Mr. S. A. Hays making the presen tation speeches. Following the contests came refreshments, tasty and substantial, partneis for the tables being allotted by numbers previously distributed. During the evening's amusement MissMollie Black played a violin solo, Miss Rose Joslin gave a Riley reading, and little Miss Marie Allen, in a pretty declamation, told the guests they had done their full duty in the eating line. Altogether, the evening was delightfully spent, and the guests gave their host and hostess assurances of the same that were truly genuine upon their departure from the cosy home, No. 7 west Poplar street. Mrs. Abrams was assisted by Mrs. H. S. Renick, Miss Anna Stone, Mrs. Alex. Lockridge, Mrs. E. B. Evans and Miss Nellie Hammond, with Misses Edith Morris and Pearl Meltzer at the punch bowl. Trip«l to Reform Its Town, The Bloomington World says very truly the following: The Franklin daily News has s,flit- \ wuh a *ph-n-did paper, and we shall sadly miss its familiar form among our exchanges. The News, however, was vounir. This in itself would be ex cusable, but it committed one of the greatest fellies of youth, it tried to reform the town. The town was lough, ami the innocent euilot thought he would receive the patronage of all the good people if he uncermoniously jumped onto the, as he called it, rotten city government. Herein was his mistake. They patted him on the back, but failed to leave any coin in his pocket. Consequently the sad demise. We cite this as an example to those good people w ho are continually asking the editor to ‘ jump onto something.” There are some people in Greencastle who do considerable of the same kind of patting.

gjj The Most Important Matter demanding attention at this season i» the condition of your blood. Ai our health depends upon it, for as the quality and quantity of the blood vary, you are better or worse. The blood convoys all the elements ■which go to make up the organs, nerves anj tissues of the body, and carries away all dissolved, useless material. Every bone, muscle,nerve and tissue, Uvjs upon what the blood feeds to it. The whole world knows that Hood’s Sarsaparilla is the standard remedy for making pure blood. It possesses merit peculiar to itself and by which it effects marvelous cures even when other preparations fail. When you bu/ your spring medicine get the best, and that is HOOD’S Sarsaparilla N. B.
