Another new swindle is reported. A man and woman, who in one town gave the name of Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Miner, advertise for women to do light work at home at a good salary. When the women apply for particulars the couple sell them a fifty cent outfit for doing embroidery for $3.60, and before any of the work is done and the women bring it in for their money the couple leaves town.

We notice that th® subjects to be discussed at farmer's institutes the coming winter are more of a literary nature than formerly, which shows that as the farmer becomes better educated he thinks of something besides how to produce hogs and hominy. He is realizing very rapidly that if he keeps up with the procession that his mind and manners must be cultivated as well as his crops. This grand combination of mind and manner is what is making farming the most desirable of all sorts ef manual labor.— Agricultural Epitomist.

Adventists Prophesying,

EDITOR REPUBLICAN—I see in your paper of Dec. 5, an article headed "Overcoats and Wings Needed," which has caused considerable talk in regard to the Adventists prophesying the world coming to an end during this month on account of there being two full moons in this month. There is a sect of Adventists that do set times for the coming of the Lord on their own accord, but they have no scripture for it. Seventh Day Adventists never set any time for the coming of the Lord, neither do they have any use for any sect that doos. Dear reader, if you want to know what the Seventh Day Adventist believe in regard to the coming of the Lord, please read Matt., xxiv note what is said in verses 36, 37 also 23 27. ADVENTIST.

BLE DIFFERENCE.

Tennyson could take a worthless sheet of paper, write a poem on and make it wortn $65,000. THAT'S GENIUS.

Yanderbilt can write a few words on a sheet of paper and make it worth $5,000,000. THAT'S CAPITAL.

The United States can take an ounce and a quarter ofgold, stamp upon it an "En| le Bird" and make it worth $20. THAT'S MONEY.

A mechanic can take material worth $5 and make it into watch springs worth $1,000. THAT'S SKILL.

A merchant can take an article worth $1 and sell it for $1.50. THAT'S BUSINESS.

Some people will go to Indianapolis to buy goods when they can save money by trading at home. THAT'S FOOLISHNESS.

A laborer works ten hours a day for $3 per day. THAT'S LABOR.

The writer of this could write a check for $800,000, but it wouldn't be worth anything. THAT'S ROUGH.

But when we sell you dolls childrens sets of dishes, china, glassware, lamps and fancy baskets below all competition at home or abroad, and have the best line to select from, THAT'S REALITY.

'I WON'T UVK HEKE.'

Says Mrs. John Roland, of Railroad Street. "I won't live in Greenfield." Mrs. John Roland made the above remark this morning to her husband and left the house crying and started for Indianapolis.

Mr. and Mrs. Roland have lived bere only a short time, and it seems that their domestic relations have not been what Cupid intended, as they have, according to their neighbors, bad frequent quarrels.

Roland is a brick moulder, bnt at present is working lor Wm. Tollen & Co. picking chickens, and Mr. Tollen says he is a good hand, but it seems that he was not good enough to please his spouse.

When last seen she was out by the glass works, going at a speed that would be a credit to the ordinary Greenfield race horse, and bellowing at every jump. Getting to be a great place, this Greenfield.

Since the above was in type, Mrs. Roland has returned and now seems satisfied with Greenfield.

J. H. Rottmau's Hig Furniture Stove And Undertaking Establishment. A REPUBLICAN reporter was recently shown through J. H. Rottman's big furniture store in his new block on North State street. Much to our astonishment the stock fills the entire building from basement to garret. There is an elevator running from the basement to the upper stories so that transportation of both freight and passengers is easy. The store is divided into departments, certain goods being in the basement, others in the two big first floor rooms and still others more fully goods in the 2nd floor rooms, while the floor is used for surplus stock. Stock is large, new, first-class and up-to-date, with prices on them that all can well afford. Mr. Rottman especially desires that all call and inspect his stock. You will there find goods that will make elegant Christmas presents, both useful and ornamental. You will enjoy looking through the big store and seeing the beautiful goods, whether you buy or not, all are welcome.

The undertaking department is in charge of Alfred H. Rottman, who is thoroughly equipped, qualified and prepared to do work of this kind in a prompt, careful, considerate and courteous manner. The line of goods in this department is quite large and complete.

Changes in Law Firms.

The first of the year the firm of Felt & Jacskon will be dissolved. Mr. Felt will practice law alone and occupy the office in the Dudding & Moore block, recently vacated by trustee W. H. Thompson. Mr. Jackson will form a partnership with Robt. L. Mason and they will occupy the rooms now occupied by the firm of Felt & Jackson, in the L. C. Thayer block.

New Shoe Shop.

I have opened a shoe shop at the corner of Mechanic and 0s9g9 streets, and will be pleased to have you give me a portion of your patronage. Work on ladies shoes a specialty. Nothing but the best of leather used. Prices reasonable. 20t6 N. N. COONEY.
