WHY ENDURE SUMMER COLDS. It isn't necessary to have a stuffed head, running nose. To cough your head off as it were. All you need do is to use Dr. Bell’s Pine-Tar-Honey. The soothing and healing balsams open the clogged air passages and in a, short time you get relief and start on the road to recovery. You* nose stops running, you cough less and you know you are getting better. Get a bottle, use/as directed. Keep what is left as a cough and cold insurance. (2

Nine young fellows in an Automobile passed through Rensselaer on their way to Marion, Ind., after a fishing trip to the Kankakee river. Before arriving in Rensselaer they framed up on one of their pals and had him placed under arrest when he arrived here, on a fake charge. J. J. Montgomery was called and let in on the joke and a fake arrest followed. The young fellow was allowed to .'make his escape while Officer Montgomery “was looking the other way.” He headed for the south part of iown, having previously made it up with the rest of the party that they pick him up latcd. When last seen he was going down the road at a merry clip, giving the rest of the bunch a good laugh at his expense. They were a good live bunch of young fellows and seemed to be'‘having a great time notwithstanding the fact that their automobile was several years behind the times. The young fellow who was made the butt of the joke was Philip J. Middleton, democratic candidate for county surveyor of Grant county. He was made the “goat” of the party after having tried to shoot' some wood duck in the Kankakee marshes. Mr. and- Mrs. L. Thomas, of Foresman, spent yesterday with his sister, Mrs. Oscar Layman.
