Ed Thacker Points Out a Few of Life’s Inconsistencies.

Ed N. Thacker, who writes Tippecanoe Currents for The MonticeNo Journal, finds a lesson in the humble garbage man as follows: “Life is a great big humbug and you can’t get away from it. The garbage man has everything you have, including twb arms, two legs, a head and, a torso. But you wouldn’t "treat him as an equal. And if he happened to inherit a million dollars and could make you look like a cheapskate you would be in line trying to shake the ex-garbage man by the hand and telling him what a fine fellow he is.”

Take Advantage of a Rensselaer Citizen’s Experience. a— When the back begins to ache, Don’t wait until backache becom.es chronic; ’Till kidney troubles develop; ’Till urinary troubles destroy night’s rest. Profit by a Rensselaer citizen’s experience. (Mrs. F. W. Rutherford, College Ave., Rensselaer, says: “My back ached most of the time and I felt languid and had no ambition. I had dizzy spells and headaches and there were many other symptoms of kidney trouble. I got a box of Doan’s Kidney Pills at Fendig’s Drug Store and they brought prompt relief. I am seldom without a supply of Doan’s Kidney Pills in the house and I find that a few doses now and then keep my kidneys in good working order.

STRAP OIL LOOKS PROPER TREATMENT

Big Boys Interfere With Class Party and Some Are "Suspended—Whipping Post Better. There are a few school communities that have fallen in the habit of foolish class rivalries that have led to a tot of fool stunts,, some destructive, some simply annoying and others of a character that brands the participants as sadly needing in home training. Rensselaer is unfortunatefly one of the communities. Recently at the schoolhouse the freshmen held tiheir class party. Some twenty-five boys, some from the senior class, went to the schoolhouse and performed a num-' ber of tricks to cause trouble to the boys and girls and the teachers who chaperoned them. Their tricks had no element of humor but were rude and ungentlemanly and some of the boys stood outside the window and composed rude couplets insulting to the teachers. Some of the boys turned off the lights and left the room where the party was being held in darkness. Prof. Swindler, the principal, caught the boys responsible red-handed and they were properly suspended. Later one of them is said to have supplied the names of 22 others who participated in the rude event*. Last year a shameful occurrence resulted in humiliation for the participants and their parents and almost cost the boys their right to attend school. The lesson, however, does not seem to have left sufficient impress on the scholars and we believe that a little strap oil vigorously applied might come nearer correcting those responsible for this breach of discipline than the suspension methods. It it about the blackest mark Rensselaer has to contend with and every parent and patron should stand by the faculty and the school hoard in breaking it up for good and all. ’

BEST THING POSSIBLE FOR CITY’S GROWTH

Building & Loan Association Endorsed By All Who Have Seen Their Prosperous Effect. With less than half of the business section of the city canvassed for subscirptions of stock in the proposed Building, Loan & Savings Association, Delos Dean reports something like 250 of the 500 shares of stock pledged, while many others are simply debating how many shares they will take and others are waiting fbr the calling of a public meeting to learn something more about the plan before signing for stock.

That the organization will be formed and that it will prove a great thing for this city is assqred. Those who had stock in the term series association in this city some twenty years ago recall that it was a great thing for both investors and borrowers and that many secured homes in this city that would otherwise still be renting property. Others saved the money and when their stock had matured had money to put them into business. Others withdrew their money and made other investments. Several who have lived in other cities where there are active building and loan associations have first knowledge of the excellent effects on the upbuilding of the towns. Strangers who have moved here during the past few months have expressed surprise that there was no association here and are giving the organization the assistance of their enthusiasm.

Practically every businessman has signified his intention of taking stock and Mr. Dean met objection in only one or two places, usually from persons who had made unfortunate wildcat investments at some time and Who could not distinguish the difference between a home impfovement association and promoter’s scheme in Timbucktoo. A number are taking out stock for their children and in this way providing a little nest egg for some future time. This is a very commendable thing to do and is urged for others. This association should have the assistance of -the small savers, of the laboring men, mechanics and small wage earners and it is organized to inspire thrift on their part and to make it possible that many will build homes for themselves that otherwise would pay rents indefinitely. Mr. Dean will be pleased to have you call him at Phone 31 and subscribe for stock. There may be some details of the investment that can not be fully explained, because the full plans will be developed by the stockholders, themselves. The wbrking plans of the association, however, will be patterned after the other associations in the state and a study is being made of by-laws of several associations and the best features of each will be worked out. Possibly a plan for small weekly savings will be developed. A preliminary meeting of the stockholders will be called soon and it should be largely attended. In the meantime all who want to see Rensselaer a hive of building industry are urged to subscribe for stock. Less than 200 shares remain to be sold.

Notice to Encampment. Rensselaer Encampment No. 201 will give work in three degrees the evening of November 26. Lunch will be served. All members should turn out. There will also be election of officers.—<M. E. Griffin, C. P. See our new line of 23c books in west window—all new ones.—Fendig’s Rexall Drug Store.

CARD PARTY TONIGHT MEANS A GOOD TIME

Many Are Expected to Attend “Exposition” Charity Seven-Up Party at Armory This Evening. It seems that several to whom invitations to the charity card party were sent did not receive them and that some feel that they have been slighted. This is very unfortunate for it is the plan of the committee that is managing the card party for the purpose of raising funds for the charity board to it a very public occasion. The invitations are merely a form of the advertising and if there are any who enjoy spending an evening playing seven-up they need not remain away because they did not get an inivtation. They are wanted. All they have to do is to pay a quarter at the door, get a place card and prepare for the pleasant rivalry that Will doubtless be a part of the excursion trip to the coast. The plans for the party have all been made and all that remains now is to appear at the armory in time to start the game at 7:45 o’clock. Remember the invitation is extended by the committee to all who care to attend. The receiving of an invitation was not necessary. You will be expected.

J. H. S. Ellis 11l At Home of Son In Chicago.

J. H. S. Ellis, former mayor and owner of the Ellis Theatre, has been ill for almost two weeks at the home of his son, Dr. John Ellis, in Chicago.

friends to buy the Franklin medicine. I have received more benefit from it than from any of the medicines I have ever taken. All this week the Franklin man Jias been busy explaining his remedy to many people. In speaking of his success in Renssealer, Franklin said: “It is as I said before, the stomach causes most of the ill health of this generation. I am successful because my medicines put the digestive apparatus in shape, then -nature does the rest. It is also valuable ifi chronic diseases of long standing, such as rheumatism, bowel trouble, liver and kidney trouble and other diseases of men, women and children, arising from impure blood.” The doctor is in his office every day from 10 to 12 a. m. and 2 to 4 p. m. Examination free.—Adv.

J. J. Montgomery Learns That Trouble Comes Fast.

J. J. Montgomery learned during about twenty-four hours that trouble does not come single-handed. Monday about noon he received a telegram from Des Moines, lowa, stating that his sister had fallen downstairs and received quite severe injuries. That evening he saw in the Chicago News that his old home town, Oneida, 111., was 'being destroyed by fire. Then he received a message from his brother-in-law in Chicago that his wife’s father, Eugene Wemple, of Rockford, 111., was dying, and his wife was spending the day in Chicago. He informed her brother there and he found her on the train ready to start home, but she at once left with her brother for Rockford. Jack has a sister living at Oneida who is in the news business and received a telegram from her stating that their .home was not burned but that the property loss in that city would reach $30,000.

URIC ACID IN MEAT CLOGS THE KIDNEYS

Take a Glass of Salts If Your Back Hurts or Bladder Bothers. If you must have your meat every day, eat it, but flush your kidneys •with salts occasionally, says a noted authority who tells us that meat formas uric acid which almost paralyzes the kidneys in their effort to expel it from the blood. They become sluggish and weaken, then you suffer with a dull misery in the kidney region, sharp pains in the back or sick headache, dizziness, your stomach sours, tongue is coated and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine gets cloudy, full of sediment, the channels often get sore and irritated, obliging yo utd seek relief two or three times during the night. To neutralize these irritating acids, to cleanse the kidneys and flush off the body’s urinous waste get four ounces of Jad Salts from any pharmacy here, take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the avid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia and to neutralize the acids in urine so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder weakness.
