MONEY is said to be very scarce. This la not true everywhere as John D. Rockefeller's income is over $10,000 a day.

EVERYBODY seems to be in favor of retirement. Cleveland wants to retire the greenbacks and -the people propose to retire Grover.

CLEVELAND is after ducks in the Carolina marshes but he is the duck that several million voters would like a chance at with their ballots about now. He would be a dead duck in the political puddle.

THE

Supreme Court, in a decision

written by Judge Hackney Thursday held that an agent has a right to deliver personally any goods sold in any manner, regardless of local laws. A man was arsested in Huntington for delivering books that had been previously sold by another agent and was acquitted by the local courts. The opinion sustains the lower court. r:.'-'!

is a fact that here is a regular monthly deficit in the National treasury of several million dollars each month. t? Much talk is indulged in of increasing the revenues to meet the expecses. It is a little peculiar that no congressman or senator ever suggests* scaling down the expenditures so that they do not exceed !^, ravenue.'-That is the old fashioned way of getting out of debt, spending less than your income and applying the surplus to paying the principal of the debt. Cleveiand thinks it is easier to sell hoeds.

JUDGE ELLISON,at Anderson has decided in a case against H. G. Bonner charged witli violating the 11 o'clock closing features of the Nicholson law that the defendant did not subject himself to a fine as he did not violate any other feature of the law. He holds that under the reading of the law a man does not subject him?elf to a fine by violating one of the sections of the law but must violate every one before he can be fined. We do not believe that decision has much common'sense in it. It may technically be Correct but if it is right the law is a farce.

TIIE Commissioner of Pensions is out \rith a recommendation that clerks in that department who have become disabled from work, from old age, or otherwise, be put on a civil pension list. That is arrant nonsense. We want no civil pension list in this country. The fact is, in the departments at Washington there are about two people or more for one job and the majority of them are paid much more than persons of equal capacity are earning at private employment. Then why pension them? Let them be provident and lay by in store for a rainy day, or do like other people.

ML JAMES WILSON, editor of the Indianapolis People, was on Thursday, sentenced to two years in the penitentiary and fined $250 by Judge Baker for sending obscene matter through the mails.

After summing up the matter Judge Baker, iu pronouncing sentence, said: "You have received a fair trial and have been ably defended, but the jury has found you guilty, and with that verdict I am inclined to agree. In my opinion this offense of which you have been foafi/l guilty is much more aggravated than that of a man who steals a horse, or who filches a pocket book, or even burns down a house at midnight over its sleeping inmates. The government of the

United States did not establish its mails for the evil purpose to which you have put them. They were estiblished for business convenience and to carry messages of love and affection between relatives and friends. "The man who deliberately scatters abroad publications that are calculated to lead the young, the rising generation, astray, it seems to me, does a thing that is almost unpardonable. The thought of destroying a human life by means of this •bscenity is a fearful thing. I would rather a thousand times that the midnight marauder should break into my house and rob me of everything I have in the world than that the disseminator of this kiud of literature should gain an audience among my children. "A poor man who steals a cow must perforce go to the penitentiary for two years, maybe fourteen that the use of the .mails-for such a purpose is a less grievous offense than that of stealing a C3WI am unable to see. I am not disposed to be severe, nor can I be so weak, or to regardless of the duty of the court as to refuse to guard the mails so that they shall not be used as the disseminator of obscenq. literature to be used for (he corruption and demoralization of the jouthof the State."

The majority of people will hold that Wilson gOtjust about what he deserved for be^ascertaiihly been running a disreputable sheet. Again there are other peOple whohdM that a paper run on the ilaaof41e People is viz to expose and

W up to their fallow citizens all. the eWean and trislawfnl acts of people

THE treasury gold reserve is now down to $75,000,000. We know treasury reserves that are down much lower than that, including silver, greenbacks, treasury notes, stamps, etc etc.

CLEVELAND will probably have kmcd more ducks and disgusted more Democrats during one te of office than any man who ever occupied the President's chair. ,^

New Superintendent at The Stove Works.

As Mr. J. W. Ramsey goes to Charleston, 111. to take charge of a stove worksrecently purchased by him and his brother in-law, Jas. A. Wells, Mr. Alig the proprietor employed a new man. The new Superintendent, John M. Meade is now in charge and is quite a pleasant gentleman. He came here from Salem, O., where he was connected with the "Victor stove works. He is a thoroughly competent man as he has been in ... the business 25 years.

He is much pleased with Greenfield, especially the spirit of progress and enterprise shown by our citizens, and natural gas is also anew thing for him. He will shortly move his family, consisting of a wife and daughter, to this city. Greenfield always extend3 a warm welcome to business men who cast their lots with us.

The postoffices at Frankton and Summitville have been raised to the rank of presidential offices, with $1,000 per year salary, making five presidential offices in Madison county. The change takes place Jan. 1.

The Commissioners of Hamilton, Montgomery and Spencer counties, have at their December session appropriated money to build a county home at the State Soldiers home at Battleground, near Lafayette. Many of the counties are doing this.

The Jary Its Own Boss.

Judge Stephenson,- of Noblesville, .has inaugurated a new departure in jury service in the Hamilton county circuit. In civil cases, after charging the jury, he sends them to their room with directions to adjonrn foj meals and reconvene, the Same as sessions Of court, and -to' hold a night session after supper if necessary to reach a verdict. During their adjournments they are instructed not to converse about the case. This obviates the necessity of boarding the jury and gives them reasonable working hours, without keeping them up all night, as frequently happens under the old system. The Jtidg says this pian is an experiment with him and so far has glven satisfaction. ^'If the hair is falling oat, ,ot turning gray,, requiring a stimulant with

Read what the New Castle Courier says of him. ... "That was a delighted audience at the ^Alcazar Tuesday evening which listened to Dr. Nourse, in hi* graphic and dramatic discourse on Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. After "briefing" these two characters the able lecturer went on to prove du^l lives of all individuals,' and the causes leading to these double lives. His illustrations were eo well drawn, and so true to the real, that the Doctor held the closest attention of his large audience for nearly two hours."

IS CATARRH CURABLE?

Mrs. Mary Alexander Says it is lu a Recent Letter.

Mrs. Mary Alexander, of Piper City, III., writes: "My health had been failing for seven years. The doctors pronounced my case one of bronchil catarrh. I could get no ho^e of recovery from any of my physicians. My friends urged me to take Pe-ru- -a. At this time I was confined to my bed. After taking one bottle of Pe-ru-na I was able to sit up and the swelling on my body and limbs began to disappear. When I had finished the third bottle I was entirely well and felt as well as ever in my life. I can heartily

say

that I believe Pe-ru-na

saved my life." Catarrh attacks any part of the human system. Not only are the head and throat liable to catarrh, but all other parts of the organism affected by it. There is catarrh of the stomach, kidneys, liver, etc. Pe-ru-na is an internal systemic remedy, and cures catarrh wherever located.

What use is there iu eating when food does you no good—in fact, when it does you more harm than good, for such is the case if it is not digested.

If you have a loathing for food there is no use of forcing it down, for it will not be digested. You must restore the digestive organs to their natural strength and cause the food to be digested when an appetite will come, and with it a relish for food.

The tired, languid feeling will give place to vigor and energy, then you will put flesb on your bones and become strong. The Shaker Digestive Cordial as made by the Mount Lebanon Shakers contains food already digested and is a digestsr of food as well. Its actionals prompt and its effects permanent. *. fih

THE TIME HAD COME,

WHY THE COMING OF CHRIST WAS yp&t DELAYED 4,000 YEARS. T*

fv-t

Dr. Madison C. Peters Says It Was In Entire Accord With Divine Arrangement. People Believed That Deliverer Would

Come—Prepared For Salvation.

Sunday morning, Dec. 15, at Bloomingdale Reformed church,New Xork. Dr. Madison C. Peters preached the first ol a series of Advent sermons. His subject was, "Why Was the Coming of Christ Delayed 4,000 Years?" The text was Galatians iv, 4, "When the fullness of time was come, God sent forth his Son." The preacher said in part:

The fullness of time—the full time appointed by the Father. The exact period had arrived when all things were ready for his coming. But why did not the promised redemption immediately appear in place of being delayed 4,000 daErk and gloomy years? Why did the world not at once receive the benefit of his incarnation and atonement?

This delay of redemption was in entire accord with the whole system of divine arrangements and interpositions in favor of men. On all subjects con nected with human improvement and comfort the same question may be ask ed. Why were the medicines, the sci ences, the arts and the inventions which ward off disease, promote the intelligence, the happiness and comfoit of men so long delayed? They were made known when the fullness of time had come, and so with redemption. Christ came at such a time when all the world would be most benefited by his coming.

It was a time when the prophecies had centered in him and when there was no question as to their fulfillment. And such an important event must be prophesied so far before even as to makj it impossible for men to say that it was mere guesswork.

The fitness of the time appears in the undeniable fact that there was at this time a general expectation throughout the world that a great prophet and deliverer would come who should change the aspect of human affairs. The rumor seems to have advanced from the east, and to have reached the ears of the Roman emperor. Josephus, Suetonius and Tacitus mention that all the people at this very time believed that some one from Judaea should obtain the empire of the world. There are many passages in heathen authors which prove that this expectation was prevalent at this time in th£ oriental world, and especially iii Judaea. And the many instances of persons who appeared in Judaea about this time, pretending to be the Messiah and collecting vast numbers of deluded Jews around them (facts repeatedly mentioned by the historians of that day), are additional proofs of this general persuasion. If we turn to the New Testament we find this state of things corroborated there by many incidental circumstances. The state of the public mind is indicated by Herod's anxiety upon hearing of the birth of a remarkable child in Bethlehem, and by the visit of the eastern Magi. Still more illustrative is the thronging of the multitudes to John the Baptist upon his first appearance and the message of the Pharisees and priests, to inquire if he were the Christ. "And all the people mused in their hearts if he were the Christ or not." Notice also the conversation of the Samaritan woman her eagerness of the Messiah as a prophet as well as a prince. Observe how the people pressed around Christ, demanding from heaven the sign which they expected of the Messiah.

It was needful that men should be prepared for salvation and also that salvation should be prepared for men. Sin could not at once be abolished by a single effort of power, and salvation could not appear suddenly without due preparation. Like everything else that has a beginning, it must unfold itself in regular succession.

The world also bad to be brought to jee the need of a Saviour, and a fair opportunity had first to be given to men to try all the schemes of human redemption, and an experience of 4,000 years taught the human race that salvation eould not be obtained through man's own wisdom and strength not through the law of which Judaism was a proof not through intellectual culture, science, art, eloquence or political power, of which the history of heathenism furnished the evidence. When Judaism was felt by the religious sense of the enlightened to be a type of a future and a better service, and when t!he cultured intellect of heathenism could not resist the conviction of its own emptiness and of its entire inability to sat^qfy the wants of man's moral nature, and when the various systems of religion devised bad failed to arrest crime, to purify the heart, to elevate public morals, to support man in liis trials, conduct him to the true God and give him a well grounded hope of immortality, man's extremity: became God's opportunity* Thfen it was a proper time for God to send his Son and reveal abetter system.

It -was prophesied that Christ's kingdoiick was to be a universal kingdom benc6 there must lie' a political preparation. Rome (hen was the mistress of* the world, and hex' conquering legions bore her banners from the isles of Britain iki the west to the' oriental cities in the east. In Europe* Asia and Africa there was but bhe vast empire, and the magnificent idea of a universal temporal kingdom, toward which the great heroes had hopelessly declined, was once more revived. The Greek language combined the whole world. -The gates of the temple of Janus were closed far the second time during Roman history. The nations were waiting for a hero. Then the angel of history closed the old book and opened the new, and the namci that is writted.cn it« title pag&is-^Je-«os /Gfcrist.ir He thf foaqtftln
