The snow is about all off the roads aud sleighriding is at an end Health is much better. Nearly all have had the grip and most all are getting well We have got plenty cf gas now, and would have all the time if the pipes were kept up off of the ground. It appears that wherever the pipes touch the ground there is a frost accumulates until the pipes are entirely stopped up. We are in hopes that we will have no more trouble this winter... .The hands that are cutting logs for Newman & Albea caught two coons, one squirrel and one rabbit one day last week. Mr. Newman coming upon the scene was led to ask the question of his men which they were doing hunting or cutting logs. .Robert Murphy got his feet frozen hauling logs last week but is getting along nicely at this time..

Mohawk Sunday-school has been a bandoned for want of attendance Dr. Bell paid a short visit to our place this week on some business with Dr. O. A. Collins The rabbits in this part of the country laughed and kicked up their heels all night when the crust formed on the snow so they could run over it... Mrs. Maroska is visiting at her brothers near Indianapolis this week.... A. O. Steele having his little boys treated at Indianapolis by some specialist on the eyes there

Hence Wilson says he can eat lots of onions but like them, he cant... .If we could only have the snow to stay with us until March some time, we would have some wheat, more than if it leaves now.. ... .We have had quite a succession of fruit crops the past few years, that people have begun to plant more fruit and care for the orchards, they already have much better than usual. The present good fruit crops came when unexpected by many and found what orchards, thero were in a dilapidated and run down condition. If people will plant and take the proper care of their orchards, as they do their crops of wheat and corn, they will receive much more for the same amount of labor. Do not hesitate to manure your orchards this winter, spring and throughly cultivate them for ona season, and note the result in the quaytity the quality and size of your ft .tit. It seems to us that some one of the county papers ought to give a column of space to the Horticulturists of the county to exchange views on fruit growing John P. Murphy is able to be out some this week... .When items are scarce, I have to write about something else.

LaGrippe.

No healthy person need fear any dangerous consequenees from an attack of la grippe if properly treated. It is much the same as a sever© cold and requires precisely the same treatment. Remain quietly at home and take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy as directed for a severe cold and prompt and complete recovery is sure to follow. This remedy also counteracts any tendency of la grippe to result in pneumonia. Among the many thousands who have used it during the epidemics of the post two years we have yet to learn of a single case that has resulted in pneumonia. 25 and 50 cent bottles for sale by V. L.

Mr. and Mrs. Ben Kinney and their niece, Mrs. Otis Snyder, who makes her home with them, aiv ail quite sick with la grippe. Ask Otis how he likes house work Chas. Umbersol and wife and Mrs. J. M. Buchanan, of the city, attended the tin wedding given by Mr. and Mrs. Jep. Lynch last Thursday evening. This vent was a very pleasant affair and nr.en enjoyed by all iu attendance.... Mrs. E. C. Huntington is seriously ill with the prevailing epidemic ...Mrs. Wesley Rice, of the city, has been critically ill for several days at the .home of Mrs. Hudson. 13ut she is now convalescing.... Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Amos, of Indianapolis, were guests of her parents, Mr. and .Mrs. .John E. Whisler over last Sunday Chas. S. Darrach, of Indianapolis, was home a part of last week on account of his mother's illness... Henry Greer, of Fortville, spent last Sunday with his sou, Jim, who lives a short distance south of here John Hanlein is quite sick with lung fever... .Mrs. E. E.

Mrs. Coleman spent Monday with the Mrs. Evans of Greenfield. .Sickness has a "grip" on Miss Anna Ferguson.. .Lewis and Miss Linda Wessling came home last Sunday on a visi.. Miss Linda has come with the intention of remaining until her sisters health improves. Miss Katie remains quite .sick. .. .Mrs. Satiford King, of Martinsville, Ohio, is visiting friends in Cumberland and vicinity this week. Mrs. is a former resident of this place and will probably be better known as Mrs. Doxie Kester King. One to see the hap py amiable Mrs. K. would certainly not believe iu the old saying, Change the name and not the letter, change for worse and not for better. Mrs. K. has relatives iu Cumberland, Philadelphia and Fortville and if she wishes to keep posted we wouid advise her to subscribe for the REPUBLICAN Mrs. Tishner, who has so faithfully performed her duties here as washer-woman for the past eighteen years has gone to the city where she obtained work at a hotel. We hope her work, though it may be more confining, will be less exposing. She will be greatly missed and is especially now, as she was a splendid nurse. But our best wishes attend her... Henry Husted and Julius Lynch were felling a tree last Wednesday and both of them being somewhat inexperienced in that kind of work found, to their sorrow, when the tree fell that they were on the wrong side. When they began to pick themselves up, Julius learned that he was hurt so seriously as to be unable to walk, Ileury being only scratched a little, obtained a buggy and brought him home. Julius has taken to woodenfeet but will probably be able to discard them in a few days. This accident might indeed have been a gr«at deal more serious as the body of the tree barely missed them... .There is a shadow -of a possibility that the Pan Handle Car Shops will be moved to this place. There was talk of this once before but we sincerely hope that this time the move will materialize. Between five aud six hundred men are given employment at the shops and of course that would mean as many subscribers for the REPUBLICAN, and a great deal more news. To be sure other benefits of minor importance might be derived but this would be, by far, the one most appreciated by the citizens in general An article was noticed in last weeks paper which read thus:—A net work of gravel rosds extends to all parts of the county, meaning Hancock county, there being not a town, liamlet or church in the county but may be reached by a gravel road. Doex the Rambler's buggy proclaim the same great blessing or does it silently yet impressively assert its tale of woe? Or is this outer covering the accumilation of clay gathered in years gone by when said county was iu its prime and gravel roads were unknown? Or perhaps the trip taken through ihe southern part of the State last spring, of which he gave such a glowing description, and others, like unto it, have all added to its decorations. Be that as it may we firmly believe the Rambler considers this dust far too sacred to be removed. We would advise him, now that the muddy season is drawing nigh, to confine his travels to the picturesque haunts of the beloved county.

The Laborer Should Ho TteMCfcd. The real dignity of labor is tvell symbolized and set forth in those single acts at the beginning or end of a great work which represent to the imagination the whole enterprise.

The corner stone of a great building is fi generally laid by some official dignitary who, in an unaccustomed apron and with a trowel which he uses clumsily, makes a pretense of doing the actual work of putting the stone in place. Crowds stand about to witness the work,» and orations are made and hymns sung.

The knocking away of the prop which a sends a vessel olx the ways ftid into the water is an event of equal consequence and interest, because it represents the noble task of constructing a great ship.

When one of the greatest engineering works of all time was completed—the const ruction of the Pacific railroad—i was regarded as a great honor to dri the last spike that bound the last the earth and the spike which servi least temporarily for the workj made cf silver.

Emperors, Icings and presidents start with their own hands the machinery of great industrial exhibitions, themselves! typical in a high degree of the import-j ance of manual labor.

Jr. a certain sense it wouLl be more fitting that these ceremonies, which concentrate into a single instanj's act lorn periods of hard labor, should bo performed by one of the reai workingmen who are engaged upon the enterprise. It is they who do the work, and they might well claim that the honor of the key ceremony belongs to them.

This was what was done, indeed, when the first blow of the pick was struck in the construction of the buildings for the World's fair of li!!}3 at Chicago.—Youth's Companion.

Where Gold Goes To.

A considerable part of all the gold which goes to India never returns. Having been obtained in the west by the sale' of exported productions, it is retained in the east as realized profits, wealth stored up, and to a moderate extent for use in the arts, for the rest as a representative of value on the credit of which traders buy and sell with the bills of exchange, they issue and the book credits they open, and settle up the differences withi the silver money of the country.

But the vast stock of gold accumulated there undergoes no diminution. There is no ebb and flow under the reciprocal action which commerce enforces in the case of countries trading together on a common metallic basis. The three millions sterling (or thereabout) of gold bullion which India annually adds to her 6tore are, under the monetary law of that country, just as much lost to the nations of the west, by being withdrawn from the general commerce of the world, as if the money had been lent to a South American republic.

Between the years 1835 and 1889 (April) this depletion amounted in value to £130.292,758. Between that date and? the month of September, 1890, a further accumulation, to the value of £5,065),272, took place, bringing this portion of the gold treasure of India ijp to & value" exceeding £135.250.000 Blackwxulta Magazina

Ibsen's Curious Flgnre.

1 cannot recollect having ever met a man of more peculiarly striking appearance than Mr. Ibsen. He reminded me to a certain extent of those fabulous creatures the gnomes, who play suchpn important part in Scandinavian mythology, and are vividly described in the old songs of the Edda. He is a man of less than medium oize, but very heavily set. The upper part of his body is very large in proportion to his lower limbs, but still small in comparison with that immense head, which, with its bushy hair, white .is snow, overtowers the compact bodily frame
