No Electric Fans In Aden.

Shameful Libel.

The first man to use a bathtub as a coal bln was not an untutored Immigrant, as many persons suppose, but a conservative old New Englander, who regarded the new-fangled tub as * sinful folly and remained loyal to the Saturday night washtub in the kitchen. The new bathroom, being off the living room, was found to be convenient for stor-ge, and they used the tub for the coal for th* Franklin stove. —Exchange.

Who Invented Ice Cream?

While it has lx en-confidently asserted for many years that “Dolly” Madisofi, wife of lly president of the United States,- invented ice cream, the truth of the matter is that this delicacy was introduced to the English aristocracy of the eighteenth century by a London confectioner named Gunther, who may or may not have been 1® inventor.

SHE SURELY DOES THE WORK

ASKED TO MAKE RETURN TRIP. So large have been the crowds, and so well pleased are the people with her work, that MARY A. ROSE the healer has been urgently requested to again visit RENSSELAER AT THE MAKEEVER HOTEL NEXT THURS., DEC. 27 Levi'- Booher, Albany, suffered twenty years with chronic Dyssentery; child of Mrs. Harvey Hillen, Elwood, St. Vitus Dance; Mr. Wm. Coffin Gaston, Sciatica Rheumatism; Jacob Rector, Anderson, full of Neuralgic pain all over his body; are loud in their praises for this noble woman. They will gladly tell you all about it, above date and place. Do not miss this opportunity and you will never have cause to regret it later on. For life is a struggle enough under the very best possible conditions, without being handicap-1 ped with some miserable disease, too. It is every child’s inalienable birthright to be well born and well reared. And the very best legacy you can ever leave it is, a sound mind in a sound body. Education, great wealth, social position, or even much talent are nothing in comparison to health—the greatest of all blessings.

MARY A. ROSE

Say* Hi* Recovery I* Wonderful. Mr. J. A. Mijler, (Amish Reverend) Mexico, Ind., says that after suffering forty nine years, with Lumbago Rheumatism, Nervous Prostration, etc., it is really wonderful how his recovery came about. He is 68 years of age. And although he was not expected to live much longer, he says he now feels twenty years younger. Mr. Chas, Allman, Peru, Ind., aged 61, was from an apoplectic stroke, was barely able to get around with a cane for three years. He has fully recovered, threw his cane away, worked in harvest field same year, and now for the past two years does all kinds of farm work. Now what do you think of that? It is not reasonable to suppose, that if the above named reputable citizens of this state and close vicinity speak so highly of the work of Mary A. Ros?, she surely can help you, also? Why not go to see her while she is near, and while you yet have so grand an opportunity? She welcomes you. Consultation free, and strictly private and confidential. English and German spoken.
