Tom Callahan visited his wife at the Rockville sanitarium last Sunday and found her getting along vejy nicely. Absolute rest is required of all patients and the treatment is proving beneficial to her. Mrs. Richard Dunn, of Wheatfleld, is also a patient there. Also a man named Snyder from Gifford. Calmly sitting on the track near a crossing and refusing to heed all warning signals which were sounded, William Schroeder, 47, foreman in the car shops at Michigan City, yesterday allowed a South Bend and Northern Indiana car literally to cut him in troubles is the supposition. Several young men about town have made arrangements with the Douglass (colored) orchestra, of Indianapolis, to be here on the evening of September sth, to furnish the music for a big dance. Attempts were made to secure them for a date this month but they are engaged for the entire month to play at Culver.

Tomorrow is the date set for the hearing by the state railway commission at Wheatfield of the petition so liberally signed, asking for passenger service on the C. & E. I. railroad. It is probable that several Rensselaer citizens will go there to testify before the commission. Judge Hanley and Senator Halleck will probably go. Mr. and Mrs. William R. Jones, of Francesville, celebrated their fiftieth -wedding anniversary yesterdays Mr. and Mrs. Jones are still in good health and have never had a death in their family. Their children, grandchildren and other relatives were there for the event. Mr. and Mrs. Leslie Clark and daughter, Ruth, attended the celebration in the evening. Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Mills, of Chicago, came yesterday for a visit of a month with Mr. and Mrs.-John Murfltt, of near Mt. Ayr. A year ago while sojourning at Benton Harbor, Mich., they became acquainted with Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Coen, of South Bend, and formerly of Rensselaer. They were pleased to learn that Mrs. Coen’s health has improved since that time. Local grain dealers report that wheat is in a very bad condition and is not nearly the quality that was expected. The kernel is soft and is shriveled and while the market on wheat is about 90 cents they are not able to pay more than 70 cents a bushel for much of the local product. Fortunately there is but small acreage if this poor quality is to maintain. Steward, Jacob and Abe Moore and their sister, Miss Eva, returned last evening from a visit since Sunday with their uncle, Dorset Jagers, and family at Columbia City. They made the trip overland in their big Jackson touring car, going via Remington, ,Wolcott, Monti cello, Idaville, Burnettsville, Logansport, Rochester, North Manchester and South Whitley, and returning through Warsaw, Winona, Culver, . Bass Lake, Winamac and Francesville. They found the roads in pretty fair condition and had no trouble at all, not even a puncture.

The annual Fountain Park assembly will begin next Sunday, August tOth, and last until August 25th. There is a splendid outlook for a good attendance there as far as the ground is concerned. Every cottage will be occupied and several more could be rented. More rooms in the hotel are engaged than ever before, and many tents have been erected, besides the rooms for light housekeeping in the Pioneer Hotel and Restaurant. The program is one of the very best in the history of the park. Probably two of the biggest days will be the Gov. Glenn Day and the Old Settlers’ Day, when S. M. Ralston, of Lebanon, democratic nominee for governor, will be there. Next Sunday will be Sunday School Day and a big crowd -is expected as a fine program has been prepared.

Cort Theatre to Re-Open in Chicago Monday Evening.

The most important theatrical offering Chicago has had in many years will be H. H. Frazee’s all-star production of Eugene Walter’s new play, “Fine Feathers,” which will have its opening at the Cort Theatre on Monday evening, August 12. The cast is a remarkable one, including the names of Robert Edeson, Wilton Lackaye, Rose Coghlan, Max Figman, Lolita Robertson and Amelia Sumers —a cpnstellation of stage celebrities unequalled in any proddtstion since the famous all-star production of “The Rivals” or the celebrated cast which presented ‘The Two Orphans” a few years ago. As a vehicle for these players, Manager Frazee has provided a modern, gripping play by Eugene Walter, the author who wrote “Paid in FulF’ and “The Easiest Way” and who is without doubt the foremost American playwright of today. “Fine, Feathers” is a tremeudous American drama, setting forth clearly and vividly certain conditions that exist in our present day life, and told with characters that are true to life and situations that confront more than half of the country’s population. It is a fine indicment of business conditions in America, a virile preachment against those ethics that pardon dishonesty in business and —condone those practices in the office that would not be permitted in the home. And again, the play sets forth woman’s craving for fine clothes and expensive luxuries, which strain and stretch the family income beyond the breaking point. Eugene Waite? has never drawn a more life-like set of characters than those he has created for “Fine Feathers,” and in the hands of Robert Edeson, as the husband, Wilton Lackaye. as the man of business’ Max Figman, as the friend, Lolita Robertson, as the wife, Rose L’oghlan, as the well meaning but misguided neighbor, Amelia Sumers, as the servant, and the others in the cast, a perfect. performance is assured. Mr. Frazee has spared no expense in producing the play, and scenery and effects are in keeping with the cast. Performances at the Cort will be given every evening, commencing Monday, August 12, with matinees on Wednesday and Saturday.

Chicken Supper at Parr. A fried chicken supper will be given at the park at Parr, Thursday evening, August 15th, for the benefit of the U. B. church. Everyone invited. COMMITTEE. The Senate Tuesday performed its annual function of saving the eighteen pension agencies which the house wishes to abolish. By a vote of 33 to 24 it refused to agree to the elimination of the agencies and sent the pension appropriation bill back to conference. Bilious? Feel heavy after dinner? Bitter taste? Complexion sallow? Liver perhaps needs waking up. Doan’s Regulets for bilious attacks. 25c at all stores. Ten hours a day for five days in each week and five hours on the sixth day will be the working schedule in the locomotive department of the Pennsylvania shops in Ft. Wayne. The car shop department has been working full time for several months and there will be no change in working hours there. Business in the shops is unusually heavy this summer and skilled and common laborers have been in demand. Norman J. Compton, advance agent for “The Town Fool” company, was in town yesterday on business. He stated that the manager, Harry Green, and his company will be down here today to begin rehearsals for the first production of “The Town Fool,” the new play written by Mr. Green? Harry Green has visited Rensselaer every winter for several years with his show, “Eli and Jane,” and is quite well known and a general favorite among Rensselaer people. No doubt a packed house will greet Mr. Green and his company in the initial presentation of “The Town Fool.”

On Sunday, August 4th, 1912, friends and neighbors to the number of 41 came to the home Qf Orpheus C. Halstead and son, Roscoe, with lunch baskets filled to overflowing with all manner of good things to eat. Shortly after noon lunch was spread out on an ynprovised table in the shade of some trees in the yard and all partook of a splendid dinner. After the things were cleared away, and beford leaving, all assembled in front of the house and their picture was taken. Eveyone present had a splendid time and the picnic was a success in every v. ..<•. way. **— The name—Doan’s inspires confidence—Doan’s Kidney Pills for kidney ills. .

NOTHING IS EVER DESTROYED

Matter Changes, But Doea Not Cease to Exist—Simple Experiment That Proves Proposition. When a candle burns It is not destroyed. What seems like destruction Is merely change. Any one can prove this for himself by a very simple experiment. Take a glass tube uid fit a cork into each end. Bore some holes in the lower cork, one of them in the middle large enough to hold a candle.' Bend a smaller glass tube to U shape, fill It with small pieces of caustic soda and cork one end. Now connect the two cylinders,by a small glass tube through the corks. Insert the candle through the lower cork and suspend the whole apparatus from one beam of the chemical balance. Weigh it carefully. Connect the free end of the U tube to an aspirator so as to establish a uniform current of air through the tubes. Remove the candle, light it and instantly reinsert it Let it burn down until entirely consumed. Now reweigh the apparatus. You will find that it actually weighs more than it did before the candle was burnt! What had happened? The carbon and hydrogen of which the candle was composed have been separated, have drawn oxygen from the air and combined with it, forming water hnd carbon dioxide or carbonic acid gas. The caustic soda has absorbed the carbon dioxide and made sodium carbonate, and has also caught the water. The extra weight is simply that of the oxygen taken out of the air. This is a practical illustration of the great truth that nothing is ever destroyed. Matter changes, but does not cease to exist St. Thomas Aquinas taught this in the thirteenth century —thus as in so many other ways anticipating modern scientists —and some of the ancient Greek philosophers understood it. It has only been proved experimentally in recent years.

SINCE TIME OF GRANDMA

Remarkable Changes Effected In Drees and Social Activities In Feminine World. The modern society woman has a multitude of expenses that her grandmother never even dreamed of; her visits to the masseuse, the hairdresser, the chiropodist, are a necessary part of her grooming today. While grandma tucked her switch guiltily away In the drawer of her dressing table and could not be bullied into the admission that she used powder, today her granddaughter unhesitatingly admits that she wears false braids and curls and that the soft glow of health on her rounded cheek was skillfully applied by a "perfect wonder” of a beauty doctor. Soclaifeffairs have increased in numberas well as in variety, and this has brought about a great change in my lady’s wardrobe. Our grandmothers talked about their “best dress” and “best hat,” the up-to-date" lady speaks of her bridge gown, her dinner gown and her dancing frock. She has not one gown for dress up affairs, but 12 or 16. She has an appropriate outfit for each occasion. Not only must the gown be suitable, bpt all the accessories, including hat, wrap, gloves, shoes, veil, Jewelry and even lingerie must be in absolute harmony. When one stops to consider that the woman who is “in society” does remarkably well if she keeps within |IOO for a year’s supply of gloves, some idea may be formed as to the amount which she spends for such items as tailored suits, ball gowns and furllned evening wraps.

Arsenic Found In Vegetables.

Arsenfo has been found as a normal constituent In man and animals, and now Drs. Jadin' and Astrug, t two French biologists, show that it may be derived from edible plants and fruits. They examined thirty-nine vegetable substances, and obtained arsenic from all, the quantities ranging from 0.03 part per million in the leek to 0.25 part per million in almonds and beans. Other vegetable matters, containing arsenic are the common cabbage, the turnip, the potato, cultivated mushrooms, black truffles, Japanese rice, red haricots, white haricots, gray peas, split peas, lentils, artichokes, salsify, chicory, lettuce, spinach, green peas, celery, carrots, watercress, cauliflower, wild asparagus, hazelnuts, filberts, chestnuts, apples, pears, oranges, pineapples and bananas.

Potted Roses.

There was a time when Englishmen could celebrate St. George’s day by feasting on roses as well as wearing them- Old cookery books abound in recipes into which rose leaves enter. One writer tells how to make potted roses. “I first pound some of the most fragrant roses in a mortar; then I take the brains of birds and pigs well boiled and stripped of every particle of meat I then add the yolks of some eggs, some oil, a little cordial, some pepper and some wine. After having beaten and mixed it well together, I place it over a slow fire. When this dish is brought to table the most delicious fragrance issues forth, covering the guests with delight.” Every good housewife in the seventeenth century made rosewater, which was used for flavoring food.

SPORTING RESUME.

(By B. B. Bug.)

Yesterday’s Results. National League. Philadelphia 4 Chicago 1 Pittsburg 7 New York 2 Cincinnati 11 Boston 3 Brooklyn 8 St. Louis 7 American League. Washington 10 Chicago 1 Philadelphia 7 St. Louis 2 Detroit 7 New York 0 Boston 4 Cleveland 4 The speeding Pirates copped the third straight from the leading Giants by pounding the mighty Matty and Kirby, a recruit, who followed him for 17 safe drives. Byrne, Donlin and Carey didj the heavy stick work for the Pirates. O’Toole opposed New York and had little trouble. Sweeney, of the Braves, combed a double and four singles off of Benton, while Zimmerman, who is a few points ahead of him for the league batting honors, did not get a safety. . Dubuc, the Tiger pitching find, held the Highlanders to two hits. In addition Dubuc got two hits, one good for a round trip. He has a pitching record of 16 wins and 4 defeats. Luderus, Cub cast-off, was a big factor in his team’s victory over his old teammates. He secured a homer -with one on the runways in the Bth which put the Cubs down for the count. Washington crowded up % game on the Red Sox, who were held to a tie by the Naps. Hugh Jennings signed a contract manage the Tigers two more years. Reports were being circulated that Jennings would be at the head of the Boston Nationals next year. Milan, Washington center fielder, is leading the American League stealers with over 50 to his credit. Chick Gandil smashed out a triple and homer in four times up off of Lange. Frank LaPorte has been sold by the Browns to Washington. The White Sox purchased Ted Easterly, catcher, from Cleveland. It is probable that he will be used in a trade as Callahan is well fortified in catchers. The White Sox have won but nine games in the last month. This is a pretty poor showing for a team which has pennant aspirations. Heinie Zimmerman has obtained but 3 hits in the last 27 times at bat. Del Gainor, who had his wrist broken in the spring, will be back in the Tiger line-up soon. The Cubs lost an excellent chance to close up on the Giants ,by losing to the Phillies. Bill Mitchell, who returned to the Naps from Toledo, held the heavyliitting Red Sox to a 4 to 4 draw. The Athletics won the series from the Browns by taking yesterday’s game from them. Home Run Baker collected 4 safeties. Eppa Rixey, the sensational twirler, picked up by Dooin, added another victory to his string when he defeated the Cubs 4 to 1. Eddie Grant is as frisky as ever at short stop for the Reds.
