county, township and municipal taxation.” To this the Elkhart Review adds: The inattention is probaby due to the same causes that operate in private attairs. Many a man who spends his money freely for gratification and for his family will grumble vigorously over taxes of all kinds. Somehow we look upon local affairs as of a family matter, but the customs duties and national expenses are for the benefit of some one else. But the necessity ot attention to local officers and affairs is far more vital to all interests.

First warders are beginning to talk about that “remonstrance.” It is thought the new telephone line will officially open next week. It now looks like Trusler would win against Taggart at Indiana

Take a walk through a cemetery, says a contemporary and you will pass the last resting place of the man who blew into the muzzle of a gun to see if ft was loaded. A little futher down the slope is buried the crank who tried to show how close he could pass in front of a moving train. In strolling about you see the modest monument of the hired girl who started the fire with kerosene, and the grass covered knoll that covers what is lelt of the boy who put a corn cob under a mule’s tail. The tall shaft of the man who blew out the gas casts a shadow acoss the bosom of the boy who tried to jump a moving train. Side by side the etheral creature

Greencastle is not alone in the city for more school room. New York is short of commodations for 0000 pupils and Chicago is several thousands. In Kokomo they are using a church and in other towns the march is towards education. This is a most encouraging TwENTV-five years ago the practical application of electricity was unknown. Today untold millions are invested in electrical machinery and steam is creeping out of sight to make room for harnessed lightning. If our great-grand fatliers were to make an excursion of a couple of weeks to their old homes they would grow so dizzy that they would hardly be able to find their way back to heaven. Recently the Indianapolis Journal stated that “To the management of county and township affairs, the expense of which comes out of the pockets of tax payers, and which constitute with muuici-
Here reposes the remains of the doctor who took a dose of his own medicine and just over there with the top of a shoe box driven over his head lies a rich man who married a young wife. Away over there bj r a side gate reposes the remains of the boy who went tieshiug on Sunday, and the woman who kept strychnine side by side with baking powder in the cupboard. The man who stood in front of a moving machine to oil the sickle is quiet now, and he rests by the side of the careless brokeman who fed himself to a seventy ton engine, and so it goes.

Chaplain McCabe entertained the preachers with a talk this morning, and got $200 of their money in a very few moments. Rev. J. H. Newhouse, of Green castle, was appointed postmaster for the conference. Rev. S. B. Town preached the missionary sermon this afternoon. It was one of his best efforts and well received.
The father who supports an idle boy and encourages him in the belief that in some way he will be able to get through life well dressed and well fed is training his son for the penitentiary or gallows, euj’s an exchange. Even if he is too celever or too timid to plunge into crime he is looked upon by the mn jority of the people as a drone who is of no use to the community.' Industrious men are reluctant to permit these fellows to associate with their daughters, and make their old playmates, who are making their way into the world, shun their companionship.

Veterans Of the war often need the toning, ■treH~theninif effects to be found in Hood’s Sarsaparilla. Head this: “My husband has suffered for years wit h catarrh,rheumat ism and chronic diarrhoea contracted in the war. In the fall he had thegrip and came near death’s door. He could not eat or sleep and was much emaciated. One bottle of Hood’s Sarsaparilla did him so much good that he kept on taking it. He now has a good appetite and has gained in flesh, I think it saved my husband’s life. I shall not be without it in my house hereafter.
