Ayr, went to Lafayette to day to spend a few gays with her husband who works for the Johnson Hardware Co., and who will be in Lafayette for several days. J. F. Nelson received visits the past week from his brothers, P. Nelson and H. L. Nelson and wife, of Chicago. The former returned home this morning and H. L. and wife are remaining for a longer visit. Theodore George,who is now traveling for the Marshall Field.company, is here selling goods, Rensselaer having been placed in his territory. He is getting a good start on the road and likes the work. Mr. and Mrs. L. E. Chaney, of Dayton, Ohio, who have been visiting her brother, Frank Alter and wife, left this morning for Lafayette and will visit relatives there and at Frankfort before returning to their home. The Monon route is planning to depopulate Rensselaer next Sunday. They rre giving a 75 cent excursion to Chicago, and it is probable that from 100 to 200 people will visit the windy city that day. The Cubs and Brooklyn will play ball. E. M. Parcells returned this morning from Brook where he was for several months with the Racket branch store. The room vacated there by the Racket store has been occupied by B. Forsythe with the balance of his big stock which he expects to close out there. Mrs. John R. Phillips came from McCoysburg this morning to see her little grandson, Jay Wood, son of Mr. and Mrs. Van Wood, who underwent an operation Monday to have the pus removed from the pleurial cavity. He recently had pneumonia and the pus formed following his partial recovery. He is still in a rather critical condition and it is probable a drainage tube wil! be inserted to keep the pus drained oft He is 4 years of age. Lyman Zea is recovering from his broken arm accident very slowly. The plaster cast was removed from his arm Monday but it will be several weeks and possibly months before he can do any manual labor. The injury was sustained on May 28th and the break was a severe one. As Mr. Zea is a poor man and has to depend on his daily labor for the support of bis family the injury has been a great hardship to him. Some charitably disposed people have given him some help and others doubtless will be pleased to help him. “Generally debilitated for years. Had sick headaches, lacked ambition, was worn-out and all run-down. Burdock Blood Bitters made me a well woman.”—Mrs. Chas. Freitoy, Moosup, Ccnn. “This is a very swagger novel, I hear.” "Oh, Very. The hero puts on a dress suit to sit alone and think about the heroine."
