School in Milroy Township Had 100 Per Cent Attendance.

A report of the attendance of the second month of the rural schools has just been completed. It shows the banner school of the county to be that of Mary Jacks, of Milroy township, with a perfect attendance for the month. A perfect attendance for an entire month is something that does not often happen and it speaks- well tor the school. Gillam again held the banner attendance for any township with an average attendance of 96.9 per cent as against 97.4 per cent lasi month....--- -- 1 _ _ ■ The average' attendance for the county for the second month was 94. S per cent as against 96.1 per cent last month. This falling off was doubtless due to the bad condition of the roads and due to the fact that some of the larger boys were kept out of school to help husk corn. During the second month there was a total of 1629 days absence. This figured at the lawfull rate of tuition in the grades was a loss of 1182.90 to the county. As a matter of fact it costs more than this to run the schools, hence the loss is greater than above stated. The banner schools of the different townships were as follows: Township Teacher Per cent Carpenter, Belle Southard 99.2 Barkley, Day Jordan 99.2 Gillam, Pansy Ingle 99.65 Hanging Grove, Louise Strantz. 97.3 'Jordan, Esther Peterson 99.5 Kankakee, Nellie Stalbaum.... 97.7 Keener. Edward Koster 98.7 Marion, Jesse Knox 98.7 Milroy, Mary Jacks 100 Newton, La Vera Lee ... 98.4 Union, Clara Brushahan 97.6 Walker, Dolly Hershman...... 98.7 Wheatfield, Grace Poole 98. i

The Way to Wealth

I HAVE HEARD that nothing gives an author so great pleasure as to find his work* fespectruliy- quoted.. by others. Judge, then, bow much 1 taust have been granted by an incident-! am going to relate to you. 1 stopt my horse lately, where a great number of people were collected at an auction ot merchants* goods. The hour of the •ale not being come, they were couversing on the badness of the times; and one of the company called to a plain, clean old man, with white locks, “Pray, Father Abraham, what think you of the times? Will not these heavy taxes quite ruin the country? How shall we ever be able to pay them? What would you advise us to do?** Father Abraham stood up and replied, “If you would have my advice, I will give It to you in short; for *A word to the wise is enough,’ as Poor Richard says.” They joined in desiring him to speak his mind, arid gathering round him he proceeded as follows :

‘'Friends,'* said he, "the taxes are indeed very heavy, and, If those laid on by the government were the only ones wq had-to pay, we might more easily discharge them; but we have many others, and much more grievous to some of us. We are taxed twice as much by our idleness, three times as much by our pride, and four times as much by our folly; and from these taxes the commissioners can hot ease or deliver us by allowing an abatement. However, let us harken to good advice, and something may be done for us; 'God helps them that help themselves,' as Poor Richard says. "I. It would be thought a hard government that should tax its people one-tenth part of their time, to be employeu In its service; but idleness taxes many of us much more; sloth, by brlnglhg on diseases, absolutely shortens life. ‘Sloth, like rust, consumes taster than labor wears; while the used key is always bright,’ as Poor Richard eays. 'But dost thou love life, then do not squander time, tor that Is the stuff life is made of,* as Poor Richard says. How much more than is necersary do we spend in sleep, forgetting that *The sleeping fox catches no poultry,’ and that 'There will be sleeping enough In the grave,’ as Poor Richard says. ,j."Tf time be of all things the most precious, Wasting time must be,* as Poor Richard eays, ‘the greatest prodigality*; since, as he elsewhere tells us, ‘Lost time is never found again; and'what~we call time enough, always proves little enough.* Let us, then, up and be doing, and doing to the purpose; so by diligence shall we do more with less perplexity. ‘Sloth makes all things difficult, but industry all easy’; and 'He that rlseth late must trot all day, and shall scarce overtake his business at night’; while ‘Laziness travels so slowly that Poverty soon overtakes him. Drive thy business, let not that drive thee’: and ‘Early to bed, and* eavly to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise,’ as Poor Richard says. “Methinks I hear some of you say. 'Must a in an afford himself no leisure?’ I will tell thee, my friend, what Poor Richard says, ‘Employ thy time well, if thou meanest to gain leisure; and, since thou- art net sure of a minute, throw not away an hour.’ Leisure is time for 'doing something useful: this leisure the-diligent man will obtain, but tl.r lazy man never; for ‘A life of leisure and a Lfe of laziness are two things. Many, without labor, would live by their wits only, but they orepk for want of s'oek; whereas industry gives comfort, and plenty, and respect. ’Fly pleasures, and they will follow you. The diligent spinner has a large shift; and now I have a sheep and a cow. everybody blds me good morrow.' “11. But with our industry we musi likewise be steady, settled, and careful, and oversee our own affairs with our own eye, and not trust too much to others: for, ae Poor Richard says.

’I never saw an oft-removed tree. Nor yet an oft-removed family. That throve so well as those that set. tied be.’

And again, ‘Three removes are as baa as a fire'; and again, 'Keep thy shop, and thy ehop will keep thee'; and again, ‘lf you would have your business done, go; if not, send.’ And again.

’He that by the plough would thrive. Himself must either hold or drive.’

And again, 'The eye of a master will do more work than both his bands'; and again, ‘Want of care does us more damage than want of knowledge'; and again, 'Not to oversee workmen, la to leave them your purse open.* Trusting too much to others* care is the ruin of many; for Tn the affairs of this world men are sailed not by faith, but by the want of it*; but a man'e own care is profitable; for *lf you would have a faithful servant, and one that you like serve yourself A little neglect may breed great mischief; for want of a nail the shoe war lost; for want of a shoe the horse was lost; and for want of a horse the rider waa lost, being overtaken and slain by the enemy; all for the want of a little care about a horseshoe nail.' “HI. So much for Industry, my friends, and attention to one’s own business; but to these we must add frugality. If we our Industry more certainly successful. A man may, if he knows not how to eave as he gets, k>ep his nose all his life to the grindstone, and die not worth a groat at last. *A fat kitchen makes a lean will'; and 'Many estates are spent In the getting. Since women for tea forsook spinning and knitting. / And men for punch forsook hewing and splitting.* 'lf you yould be wealthy, think of saving as well as of getting.

“Walting for Thoel"

“Axe you watting for me, dear?*' she said. Axing her hat as she came downstairs. “Waiting?” exclaimed the lin patient man. "No, not waiting—Mfounlag."

Please Partea Oar Airs; We Are In the New Depot.

We will admit that we are a little .swelled up. And why not? Bless you. it is the first time in the lives of most of ns that we have ever moved into a brand new depot Agent Beam got word Sunday morning to move into the new depot and he got a move on himself, for none of us were nearly so anxious as he to get into it He called his son Den and a wheelbarrow into service and it*

only took a couple of loads to get everything there was to move, for this new depot is fully supplied with everything new. No. 32, north bound at 10:05, was the first train to stop at the new station. The news soon became circulated about town and during the day half the population visited the station and part of them spent most of the day there. Well, it is a dandy station. Travelers on the trains strain their nec-s to see it and when the conductor called for Rensselaer passengers in the future won’t say. “My, what a dirty looking little hple.” The old shack of a depot has been sold, to Babcock & Hopkins, who are said to have paid <BO for it. They will move it over near the elevator and use it for a machine shed. We are not only proud of the station, but proud to realize that the olficials of the road have been fair enough to give us a building fully comensurate with our needs and a very creditable building In every way. The depot is a beauty and should be seen to be fully appreciated.

Mrs. John W. Poole Visited Jasper Couney Farm Sunday.

Mrs. John W. Poole, accompanied by a hired hand, drove from toe farm near Swianington to the Jasper county farm, 10 miles north of Rensselaer Sunday and remained there until this morning, when she started back to the Benton county farm. Simeon McCloud still lives on the Jasper count}’ farm and he reports that Mr®. Poole is very anxious that Poole be punish”. I for the killing of Kemper. She fears him, according to McCloud, and is in hopes that he will be confined in prison so that he can never again bother her or the family. Mrs. Poole and the man made the trip between farms in a buggy. The distance is close to 40 miles each vrtiy.

HANGING GROVE.

’ Mr. and Mrs. Robert Drake went to Monon Saturday. Ethel Parker and .Charles Miller were at Lee on business Saturday. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Cochran and family called on relatives in McCoysburg Sunday.

Lowman went to Rensselae* Saturday morning to take an examination for fourth class postmaster at McCoysburg to succeed Reed McCoy, who has resigned to take effect Jan. Ist. Teachers’ institute was held at McCoysburg Saturday. This was one week earlier than the regular time, but was done in order not to conflict with the teachers' association at Rensselaer next Saturday. Mr. and Mrs. Richard Foulks have their goods packed and are going to move to Wheatfield Tuesday, where they will make their home this winter, at least But they will probably hunt some climate that will benefit Mrs. Foulks’ health. They will be near their daughter at Wheatfield.

Sunday was quarterly meeting at Lee. The business meeting took place Saturday evening. Roy Bussell was appointed church treasurer for McCoysburg to succeed Reed McCoy, who resigned on account of going to move away. Superintendent Briggs preached at Lee at 11 o'clock Sunday morning and at McCoysburg at 3 o'clock in the afternoon.

Miss Hemphill, of Rensselaer, the nurse that has been taking care of Elmer Ross for the past two weeks, returned to her home Friday morning. The boy is still very bad and the outcome quite uncertain. Mr. Ross* friends here and in the neighborhood where they lived formerly, are lending financial aid toward paying tho nurse. A dollar spent in this manner is surely well directed and will be c/eatly appreciated at this moumt Mias Lydia Sands, a trained nurse from Lafayette, came Friday to tak .- Miss Hemphill's place. The boy rested fairly well Saturday night and Sunday, but is very weak and is only con* scious a little while at a time.

Henry Bahn, former township trustee, living near Clay City, Spencer county, was kicked to death by a mule on his farm.

DON’T WAIT.

Take Advantage of a Rensselaer Citizens Experience Before Its Too Late. When the back begins to ache, Don’t wait until backache becomes chronic; Till serious kidney troubles develops. Till urinary troubles destroy night’s rest. Profit by a Rensselaer citizen’s experience. Charles Malchew, Harvey Street Rensselaer, Ind., says: ’.‘Kidney complaint and backache kept me in misery for years. The attacks came 6n so frequently that it seemed as if I was never free from the trouble. The small of my back was the part most affected but often the pain extended through my shoulders and even into my neck. The kidney secretions annoyed me by their irregularity in passage and proved that my kidneys were at fault Years ago I learned about Doan’s Kidney Pills and getting a supply at Fendig's Drug Store, I began their use. After taking a few doses, I knew that I had at last found the remedy I needed. My kidneys were strengthened and the pains in my back were disposed of. I have taken Doan’s Kidney Pills since then when having similar attacks and I have never failed to get prompt and lasting relief. This remedy lives up to all claims made for it” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, New York, sole agents for the United States.
