jCOMHADK :

I You are conlially invited to join with j McPherson Post in forming a battalion ! of veterans, to be commanded by our {distinguished comrade, General l.ew { Wallace, in the parade at the national j encampment at Louisville, Ky., Sept. 11, 01 ox. Each member of the battalion is expected to wear the G. A. K. uniform or a blue coat with brass buttons. a black slouch bat and dark col-

I ored pants.

It is the desire of General Wallace ] that all members of the battalion assemble at Crawfordsville, at 1 :.'10 p. tn., Friday, slug. 2:1, for drill and instructions. If all who enlist in your post or vicinity cannot attend this drill, please felect one or two of your members to come and receive instruction, that they may drill and instruct those who cannot come. An effort will be made to secure quarters for the battalion in i camp or barracks, thus greatly reduc- ■ ing expenses while at Louisville. You will be further advised about this. The members of the Battalion from I this place will leave via the Big Four j route at 8:17 a. in., on Tuesday, Sept. ; 10, joiring the headquarters train at Indianapolis and leaving there tor Louis- ! ville about noon same day. Fare from | here $:U5 round trip. Tickets good ti'l ; Oct. o. If you cannot accompany the lutallim from (Tawfordsville you can {join it at Indianapolis.

Please have all Ibe comrades of your post, as well ns all the veterans of your vicinity who are not members of the order, and who a*re willing to uniform and drill, to join ns on ibis occasion, and write us as soon as possible the names of all who will go, giving company and regiment.

St. \mv\s Globe-Democrat: The importation of shoddy has increased over 1000 per cent., in the last seven months. A full explanation of what this shoddy is and what becomes of it would be of interest to the American people. It was the republican policy to shut out the stuff as belonging to the Peter Punk and cholera microbe department of trade.

A spasm of virtue is weeping over < rawfordsville and the Sunday closing movement is being worked for all n is worth. It is now thought the natural gas company the artificial gas company and the electric light company will in all probability lie obliged to cease operations at midnight Saturday and stay quiet until midnight Sun day. If they close down, says the Journal to give their men tile much needed rest the churches will be compelled to suspend services on Sunday evenings, and everybody will be required to “at a cold dinner. Hut then this will give the domestics a rest. It will be a rest for everybody.

ing loO pounds and moving at the rate of ten feet a second (which is only about seven miles an hour)

has a momentum of

leaving out of the account weight of the wheel. This is sufficient to upset any pedestrain with terrible force. It has been sug gested that the pneumatic tire forms a sort of fender which would prevent serious concussion in case of a collision. It would undoubtedly have a slight modifying effect, hut it would he of little account. A collision between two wheels, each with a 150 pound rider, spinning at the moderate speed of seven miles an hour, would result in asmushup with a force of ffOOO pounds. In view of these facts, it is no wonder that bicycle accidents are often

very serious.

The tractive forces required to propel a bicycle over a smooth leve surface is estimated at one-tenth of file load; ealing the load of 150 pounts, a force of pounds would he required to move the wheel forward. and this calls for a pressure on the pedals ol 0'j pounds on the wheel geared in the usual manner. When, however, the road is rough, or on an up grade, the case is different. On a grade of 1 to 10, for example, the rider, in addition to the tractive force, actually lifts one-tenth of his weight and that of his machine. With a ragid or semi rigid tire the rider is obliged to exert sufficient force to lift bimselt over every obstruction encountered hy the wheel; the descent from the obseruetton gives back a portion of the power expended in surmounting it, but not ail of it. In the case of the pneumatic tire, however, the small obstructions are not an opposing element of any consequence, as the tire yields, in lieu of the wheel being raised, and the result is the wheel travels

upon a smooth track.

taught in the following story: “Two bull frogs found themselves

. | in a pail of milk, from which they

could not jump out. One ot them was for giving up. and said to the other: ‘Good by; I sink, I die.’ Said Ins mate: ‘Brace up, you duffer! Keep a jumpin' and see what turns uw.’ So they kept jumpin’ up and down all night, and hv morning had so churned the milk that it turned to butter, and they jumped off the butter onto land. This is no milk and water tale, as you see by the results—the butter.

Applied to business, it reads like ^ this: If you want the business ol ^

this year to heat that of last year.

‘keep a-iumpiii’!’ Don’t cry:' 1 ^ sink, 1 die.’ The business man gL

who keeps looking for‘bud times’ will not live long enough (in business) to see ‘good times.’ The man who ‘keeps a-juiupin’ and adyertises his business liberally is the one who will see ‘good times’ first.'’

I-ust Day of the Teachers' Institute. The annual meeting of the teachers’ institute of Putnam county closed this evening. The meeting has been exceptionally well attended anil there has been excellent attention. It is the testimony of the older teachers that it was the best institute that has ever been held here. The work of Dr. An drew Stephenson of the university, deserves especial mention. He has his subject thoroughly mastered ar.d he presented it in such a way that any one could grasp it. Prof. Stalker’s talks have been very in teresting and instructive, and he has shown remarkable ability in hanu ling his subject. Today’s sessions wete perhaps the best of tbe meeting. The instructors finished their subjects and all matters were dis posed of that were ot importance that had been brought betore the institute. Rev. Y\ r . K. Weaver led the devotional exercises this morn ing and Dr. Stephenson continued his talk on history reviewing the founding and development of our institutions and their westward march. A report of the uomina tions for otlieers of the Putnam County Teachers’ association was heard. Mr. Edward L. Day, of Raccoon, was unanimously elected president and Miss MeVey, ot Floyd township, was elected secretary. The time for the next association meeting was set for Dec. 23 ami 24. Prof. Stalker continued his talk on Child Study showing the development of the child from the sensous to the intellectual and emotional. Mr. Beil closed the morning sessioh with a short talk on the study of geography and Ins tory. At the afternoon session Dr. Stephenson concluded his lecture showing the later development and present conditions of our institutions. At the close of his lecture he was most enthusiastically applauded. Misses Fidelia Lester and Cherry Smith rendered a piano number and Prof. Stalker conelud-

If so the best plaee to find relief is at IVtoskey. Midi, famous the country over as possessing climatic advantages unsurpassed for the relief of that tioubesomedisease. The cool invigorating lake air laden with odors from the forests give almost instant relief and aj few days stay removes all traces of the trouble. It’s a delightful place tospend August or September even if one is not a sufferer, and is one of the most popular of Michigan resorts. The Big Four through sleeping ci.r service via Benton Harbor and ('.<& \V. M. Ky., oilers a most desirable route.
