Daniel Webster said “Trade with the .firm that has the largest business, there is a reason.” We have the business because we have the goods and we give the service. Among our many bargains is our automobile tire offering:—Kellner & Callahan. Life of a Thayer, Ind., farm is more appealing than chasing criminals to Sergeant' Charles Amstedn, of Chiacgo, who retired from the police force recently after forty yeans’ service. Nine-tenths of all battery trouble is due to short circuits in the battery itself. Eliminate the short circuit and you have lengthened the life of your battery two or three times over. Vesta plates ape locked apart, which prfedeAts short circuits. But Vesta goes still further.; They -are impregnated separators wluic’li do not rot nor turn to a soft wood pulp and ’ fall apart. On top of this the lead plates are hanrdened by the use of titanium, which almost eliminates sediment, and gives much longer life. These three patented Vesta featui'es, the only important automobile battery improyements in yeans, have placed the Vesta in a class by itself. No other battery can be like the Vesta.—Rensselaer Garage. -p ' . You would confer a favor by calling No. 68 when the paper boy fails to leave you a paper, and notifying us. We have no <way of knowing when your paper fails to arrive if you do not tell us. Stallion Record Books on sale at The Republican office.

“For the Benefit of Gossipers,” Be Careful What You Say.

hfn "speaking of a person’s faults Pray do not forget your own; Remember, those with houses of glass Should seldom throw a stone. If we have nothing else to do But talk of those who sin, ’Tis better we commence at home .Amd. from that point begin. We have no right to judge a man Until he’s fairly tried; Should we not like his.,company • ~ We know the world tis wide. Some have their faults'—and who has The old as well as young; Perhaps we may, for aught we know, Have fifty to their one. I’ll tell you of a better plan, And find it works full well, To try my own defects to cure Before of others tell; And though I sometimes hope to be No worse than .some I know, My own shortcomings bid me let The faults of others go. Then let us all, when we commence To slander friend or foe, Think of the harm one word may do To those who little know. Remember, curses, something like Our chickens, ‘ixx>st at home’; Don’t speak of other’s faults until We have none of our own. ‘ —Contributed.

Customer Does Not Like Mouse in His Raisin Pie.

Wm. of Indianapolis, was fified ten dollars in the Indianapolis police court because a customer found ■a dead mouse in his raisin pie. Mr. McGinn is the owner of a dairy lunch. This was the fourth time within 15 months that McGinn has been found guilty of violating the pure food laws. Don’t know whether a ten dollar fine would appease our anger or not if we were eating the pie. Perhaps a mailed fish pre perl y planted would do the offender more good.

John O’Connor returned from Cincinnati this morning, where he had gone on a short trip. He states that the land between Rensselaer and Cin-' cinnati is very wet and that there has been practically no oats sowing due to this condition. The land about Lee is very wet accordin'” t<f Mir O’Connor. Between Delphi and Indianapolis there were but five fields noted in which any oat sowin'- had taken place. Between Indianapolis ajnd the Ohio river but four more fields werd found. The Qhio river at the present time is very high. While passing through Indianapolis the traveller’s attention was drawn to the American flag, which he saw floating about five hundred feet m the air, and it presented a“ very pretty sight with the sun shining on it. Mr. O’Connor’s curiosity as to how the flag was held in position was aroused and he finally discovered a box kite somewhat higher up which was holding it there. The flag was almost directJy over the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Monument. A singular thing was noted by Admiral John. The flag was turned upside down, which was a sign of distress, and Mr. O’Connor states that this was the second time in his life time that he has witnessed such a sight, the first time being at sea when a burning ship flew a dis< tress signal.

To demonstrate.the wonderful features of the Vesta indestructible isolators we opened up a starting battery, removed the wood separators and assembled again minus its insulation. It worked and tested like" any new battery. Think of it, a battery that will light your lamps and crank your engine without insulation betaween the positive and negative plates. No other battery-in the world can do it. When we say “double life” we mean something.—Rensselaer Garage.
