THE EVENING REPUBLICAN, RENSSELAER, IND.
Child Not Unlike Adult
The child in its disposition is not unlike an adult. Normally, both are happy and contented as long as they are feeling well, and the healthier they are the more responsive is theif disposition. But if the head is dull and the brain is sluggish and the muscles have a tired feeling from a poor digestion, then both the adult and the child become irritable and quick tempered, doing only those things which one wishes to do, unresponsive and discontented.
Cromwell's Last Words.
Of the great Oliver, who brought Charles I to the scaffold, Thomas Carlyle has written a notable book, and in the fine description of the death scene Cromwell’s last words are recorded. When, being restless, he was offered something to drink, he said: “It is not my design to drink or sleep, but my design is to make what haste I can to be gone.”
Man's Unselfishness.
Man is unselfish on a thoroughly reasonable basis. His unselfishness is a rational development in a being whose whole personality is built on association with others and on participation in the common life. He cannot disregard the demands of that common life without disregarding his own largest interests. —Exchange.
Basis of Bay Rum.
The basis of bay rum is Jamaica or Saint Croix rum, made from the skimmings of the sugar boilers, the scrapings of sugar barrels and the washings from sugar pots. For the best grade of bay rum the rum . must be free from foreign odors and almost colorless. ; J—,
Velocity of Sun.
Professor Boss figures the transcontinental velocity of the sun through space at 14.9 miles per second. He regards the speed formerly obtained by spectroscopic methods, namely, 12.4 miles per second, as subject to systematic error.
Apothecaries of Old.
Tn Biblical times a person whose business it was to compound ointments was called an “apothecary” (Nehemlah 3:8; Ecclesiastes 10:1). The work was sometimes carried on by women “confectionaries.” (I Samuel 8:13).
Difficult Navigation.
An old lady was on her first ocean voyage. “What’s that down there?” she asked the captain. “That’s the steerage, madam,” he replied. “Really?” she exclaimed. “And does it take all those people ,to make the boat go straight?”
No Occasion for Worry.
Tm afraid,” said the junior member of the law firm, “that we are causing our client unnecessary trouble.” “Oh, that’s all right,” rejoined the senior member; “we’ll charge him for it”
Whalebone King.
A New Bedford man, with whom both Europe and America have to deal, is said to handle the entire whalebone supply of the world in his small store. And this man’s corner in whalebone amounts to only 100,000 pounds.
Swindled.
De Speed (after the spill)—"The agent lied to me about this car. He said, There was a car that would knock my eye out,’ and it only knocked six teeth out.”
A Pleasant Course.
Somebody says that the course in au* tomoblling which a Western college has inaugurated should be a pleasant course in fair weather. Yes, if It’s coeducational.—Cleveland Plain Dealer,
An Oversight.
Harold was out walking with his mother* when they passed a legless man. "Goodness, mamma, did God let that man out of heaven without his legs?** he asked.
Prosperous but Lonesome.
"A tricky man in business" said Uncle Eben, "is mighty likely to wind up by flndin’ hlssef prosperous but lonesome.”
Welding Aluminum.
▲ welding compound for aluminum has been evolved, It successfully joins that metal to copper or brass without the aid of flux,
The Accordion.
The accordion, the proverbial instrument of rural musicians, was invented by a Viennese, Damian, in 1829.
Encouraging Him.
"Pm doing »y to set ahead," asserted ChoHy, "Well. heaven knows you need one,” asserted Dolly,—Puck.
Powerful Can Opener.
A foot’power can opener far reatau* rants cuts the entire top from a can aa a pedal la pressed. —>

J. L. Hogan, of Kankakee, 111., came today to look after his farm just east of Rensselaer. Mrs. Jessie Harris returned to her home at Roann, Ind., after a. visit with her sister, Mrs. Dr Hemphill. Mrs. A. G. Work went to Lafayette and she will return with her husband today. He has been tn the hospital for three weeks but is recovering nicely from his operation. E. Hufty returned to his home at Pueblo, Colo., after a visit with his relatives at Mt. Ayr. Mrs. Hufty is a daughter of W. D. Sayler, of Mt. Ayr. B. Forsythe is improving his 285 acre farm in Kankakee township by the erection so a bungalow and barn. The most of the lumber used in the buildings was sawed on the place. The place has also been improved by building wire fences and . partially clearing the land of timber. Better get your threshing coal now’. We have a good supply of all grades and are in shape to take the best of care of you now. On account of the uncertain conditions in the coal fields and the possible railroad tie-up, it is wise to get your coal at once.—Farmers Grain Company. The rumor has gone abroad in a number of places that the colleges and universities of the state may not continue their regular work this coming fall semester on account of the war. The rumor is, of course, baseless. One of the greatest services the colleges and universities can render at this time is to keep going. President Wilson has said, “Such a suspecnsion would be against the public interest.” The heat for the past few days has been terrible. The mercury hovered in the neighborhood of 100 degrees throughout most of today. "Farmers are delighted with the weather and corn is making great progress and bids fair to do nicely if the warm weather is interrupted with occasional showers. In some parts of the Country come reports that the weather is too hot and that the crops are burning up. Kansas corn is said to be suffering severely from the warm wave which has struck that state and in many vicinities the crops will be almost a total failure unless cooler weather sets in.

THE rRISMO HEADLIGHT GLASS $1.50 a Pair Why pay $3.50 to $4.50 for lenzes for your headlight when you can buy the PRISMO/ the best headlight dimmer made, for $1.50 perpair?
Night motoring may be a fascinating sport—it may be dangerous and nerve-racking. It all depends on your automobile headlight glass. To enjoy night driving your headlights should have long range. The whole road should be brilliantly illuminated. At the same time your headlights must not glare, or approaching motorists and pedestrians will be dazzled. The range of your headlight is particularly important. When your car is going 25 miles an hour it is eating up the road at the rate of 37 feet a second, so the headlight that dumps the light in front so the car is inefficient. You must have long range to be safe and feel secure. With the scientific automobile headlight glass—the Prismo—night driving is a new and wonderful experience. ' ~ The rays from the glass of which the Prismo is made, light up the road
I have secured the agency for Jasper Co. for the PRISMO and would be pleased to have your order. Equip your car with a as the present Indiana law requires a device of this kind. Office with the Republican, where orders can be filled if I am out. B. S. FENDIG Agent for Jasper County.

brilliantly. Along this bright path your car speeds swiftly and safely. There is ample side light. The Prismo light makes the bushes, trees, etc., along the roadside stand out. And there isn’t any glare. The light is kept on the road by the patented corrugations on the in-ner-face of the Prismo. A unique feature of the Prismo is that its rays pierce fog and dust. This is due to the Prismo glass which was developed in the technical laboratories of the Prismo glass works. You will fin dthe Prismo easy to install on your car.- Sizes are made to fit all cars. Simply take out the glass now in your headlight and put the Prismo in its place. Be sure the lamp bulbs are in focus. In ordering give pame, model and year of your car and diameter of your present headlight glass. The Prismo has a smooth front surface and is easy to wash clean.
