The local health officers, and; in fact, all the local physicians, are cooperating with the office of the secretary of the state board of health in making the visit profitable to the public in the prevention of disease and in the education of people as to what the pure food law aims to accomplish. The room is hung with various carts, illustrating many of the dangers that beset the public health, and largely devoted to tuberculosis. The best methods of treatment for the white plague are shown and numerous illustrations showing the stage of the disease, the cause and the best methods of treatment are shown. Spitting is doubtless the greatest cause for a spread of consumption, and one purpose of the exhibit is to teach consumptives where to spit, and well people how to guard against the dangers thus caused. The diseased lungs are shown in covered cases, and Dr. King and his assistants will be pleased to talk with all who visit the exhibit, and to try to sow the seed of health in Rensselaer in a manner that will have a permanent benefit. Mr. Tucker has been with the state pure food inspectors for a long time and is familiar with most of the deceits practiced in the effort to self adulterated and cheapened foods and hap a number of interesting experiments showing the frauds practiced by some food preparations. Every person in Rensselaer and vicinity should see this exhibit. Each may learn somethiny that will aid in saving of life. Remember it is entirely free and you are urged to come and get all the information and instruction that you can. Thursday night at 7:30 o’clock at the Presbyterian church there will be a free stereoptican lecture by Dr. King. You can learn something about consumption if you attend it. The church should be crowded.

This afternoon at 2:30 the 6th grade of the schools visited the exhibit. Other grades will visit it during the week and Friday morning at 8:30 Dr. King will talk to the high school "and the older grades in the assembly room. Friday the township trustees will meet at the county superintendent’s office and after visiting the exhibit will listen to a discussion of things vital to the health in the schools by Dr. King. This exhibit is sent here for the good of the public. There is nothing to sell, nothing to give away, except knowledge accumulated by hard study and the people should give it the heartiest encouragement.

New Time Table on Monon In Effect Next Sunday.

The Monon railroad is to have a new passenger schedule with two new passenger trains. It will go into effect next Sunday, Dec. 11th.

The running of these trains between Chicago and Indianapolis will alter the schedule of several other trains.

No. 32, the northbound morning passenger, will continue to run at 10:05, and will meet No. 5, the Louisville train, at Lowell, and No. 37, the new train, at Cedar Bake. No 5, now due here at 10:55, will not arrive until 11:23 and No. 37 will arrive at 11:41. The latter train will make only one stop en route here from Chicago, that being at Hammond.

, Jasper Kenton and wife, who came recently from Mitchell, S. Dak., have not determined positively on their future movements. They will go from here to Oklahoma and may remain there all winter, although it is possible that they will go down into Texas to remain part of the time. They are also undecided about whether they will again return to Mitchell to reside permanently. He says there are good opportunities to invest money in South Dakota land to the west and north of Mitchell and then wait for it to advance, but don’t look for such sudden advances as those that favored the purchasers in the neighborhood of Mitchell a few years ago and in which he and his brother Mason shared so abundantly.

WEATHER FORECAST. Cloudy tonight; Wednesday fair; continued, cold.

A postal request is that Christman presents be mailed before the rush. It is a good idea. Get them early and send either by mail or express a little ahead of time. This will not only save clerks in postoffices and express offices and on the train a lot of work, but will assure that your bundles reach their destination on time and they will stand less chance of’injury in a big Christmas jam. < ■ Mr. and Mrs. Isaac N. Childers, of Crawfordsville, who had been attending the fat stock show in Chicago, -stopped off here Sunday and remained until Monday afternoon with his cousin, J. W. Childers and family. It was his first visit to Rensselaer for a number of years. From here they went to Delphi for a short visit with other relatives before returning to their home in Crawfordsville. Arlle Rowen thought he would take a shot at a rabbit with a little 22caliber revolver Sunday and as he took it from his coat pocket the pistol was discharged. The bullet struck the index finger of his left hand and was buried in the bone. The attending physician probed some for the bullet, but did not locate it It was decided to keep the wound open a few days and then make another effort to extract the bullet. From two of the very best candy kitchens known to/modern candy making, the Home Grocery is now receiving the Christmas candies and confections. It is opening exceptionally fine * and the prices are ranging very low.
