RECENT BIRTHS.

DRUM, MAJOR BLUE AND HIS BAND.

Last evening old Hump Pied Piper Blue, attired in his quaint cut costume and bright flowing tie of red and yellow, tripped lightly over the village green wielding his magic baton and at the same time chirping some mystic notes, unintelligible to the populace but well understood among the jazzbo’s. Down in the loop there soon came Jorth from the theatre foyers and 'cafes expert tympany men and clarineters. Around the corner from down in Front street came peck horn artists and loud trumpeters. Piccolo runners and reed men from up about the five points appeared and even from the adjacent fields came cymbal beaters and bassoon players. The amazed villagers- looked on while Hump the' Pied, led them on. On up a steep incline he led them when suddenly th(?„ portals opened wide and soon he arid his men disappeared into the side of the massive stone mountain-like structure, the county capitol building. Then, from out the land of the piper came sounds of music. Everything from rhapsody to jazz. In the meantime, the council of the village deliberated like their predecessors of .Hamljn. It is rumored that an agreement will be reached between the council and the piper when the band will furnish music on Wednesday evenings. The gathering last night was called to rehearse for the Decoration day parade. The next excursion to the Rio Grande valley of Texas will leave Chicago Thursday night Come and join us on this excursion. A low rate for the round trip from Rensselaer will be made. You can make this trip cheaper than you can remain at ■ home and you will have the most en- ! joyable time of your life on the trip. 'See me for particulars. J. P. Hammond.

RECORD OF THE PAST.

No Stronger Evidence Can Be Had In~RenMelaer. Look well to their record. What they have done many times in years gone 7 by is the best guarantee of future results. Anyone witht a bad back; any reader suffering from urinary troubles, from kidney ills, should find comforting words in the following statement. Mrs. Wm. Moore, Elm St., Rensselaer, says: “I suffered from kidney trouble. I had backaches and headaches for a long time, I had no strength or ambition and- couldn’t sleep well. I could hardly turn in bed on account of the lameless in my back. I couldn’t do my housework and I knew that my kidneys were weak. Finally I got Doan’s Kidney Pills and they cured me of all those ailments. I have never had an attack since.” (Statement given May 31, 1907.) On February 29, 1916, Mrs. Moore said: “I am never without Doan’s in the house. They are the best kidney medicine I know of.” Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mrs. Moore had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfgrs., Buffalo, N. Y.

S. chairman for Jasper county. Mr. Wood will have complete charge of the county sales organization for the 1919 campaign. The appointment of Mr. Wood is part o?f a general reorganization of the state forces, following the selection of Robert E. Springsteen, of Indianapolis, as director to succeed J. D. Oliver, of South Bend. Fred B. Johnson replaces Frank E. Hering as vice director, and state headquarters will henceforth be in Indianapolis. This year’s campaign will be on an educational as well as a patriotic basis, Director Springsteen announced today. Last year the plea of war savings stamps chairmen was patriotism. “Help Win the War” was the slogan. This year the war savings stamps forces will emphasize the educational and moral value pf training in thrift. The public schools, newspapers and advertisers will. be called upon to help spsead the gospel of thrift. Witjh the foundation of advertising and sales organization laid last year, officials in charge for 1919 expect to improve on the state’s record for sales made in 19'18.
