The MODEL

We have made every effort to close out our stock of goods in bulk as we proposed last spring, but owing to the unlooked for financial depression and scarcity of money, buyers of stocks like ours have been deterred from investing; the result is we have been forced to continue business through the coming season. We have had an extraordinary sale of spring and summer goods and reduced our stock so very low that to continue we will have to go into the market for a Brand New Fall and Winter Stock of Goods,

And with the cash at present we can buy from manufacturers at prices never before dreamed of; consequently our customers may look for the greatest bargains of the day. In the purchases of new fall and winter clothing manufacturers need money and we are ready for them. iF 1 . 331^'Y'e.

Dnggy, formerly of this city, is Vice President, failed to open its doors for business on Monday morning. The Directors issued a notice explaining the condition of the hank, in which it was stated that the deposits fell off in the last few months from §173,000 to less than §8. l 5,000. The assets of the hank are §60,000 in excess of its liabilities. A Good Place to Go. Dan McDonald, of the Plymouth j Democrat, says truthfully and well: When you go to the World’s Fair take your lunch basket and walk right into the Indiana building without knocking and have it checked. It won’t cost you a cent. At lunch time you have the privelege of eating your grub in the large airy room on the third floor where there are plenty of chairs and tables and you will b« provided with iced water all free of charge. You can also eat your luncheon on the north verandah where there are plenty of easy chairs and fresh water. On the second floor you will find the reading room where are nearly all the Indiana State papers, and a hook case with nearly six hundred books by as many Indiana authors. Across the hall you will find the chairman of executive committee Hon. B. F. Havens, who will take pleasure in showing you genuine hoosier hospitality. On the first floor you will find the postoffice where you can receive your mail promptly if you order it sent there, and near by is the check room where every day are deposited hundreds of hinv.h brokets, boxes, satchels, etc., for safe-keeping until needed. Near by are convenient dressing apd wash rooms for women and men. In front is the general parlor and waiting room finely furnished with finely upholstered easy chairs and sofas. The building is entirely surrounded with a sixteen foot verandah with outside railing, supplied with hundreds of rocking and easy chairs, and it is generally Jtnown all over the fair grounds that the Indiana building is the most hospitable and home-like State building on the grounds. When visiting the Fair don’t fail to make that your headquarters. That is what it is for. It was built by Indiana for Indianians. It belongs to you as much as anybody else, and if you fail to avail yourself of its benefits it will

be your own fault.

Explanatory. Two weeks ago the paragraphs below appeared in our local columns, in the order in which they are here re-

printed:

Died, in this citv, onsumption, at the

on August 14, of

consumption, at the residence of his mother, George Parker, aged 19 years.

He dreamed he was an angel And on strong, snowv pinions rose,

But the only wings he found when he woke Were the wings of the fly on his nose. There was no malice or forethought in this arrangement of these items in our columns, neither was there any connection direct or implied between

the notice of death and the humorous

verse following. On Thursday afternoon, however, the mother of the deceased called at this office, her feelings much injured because some malicious busybody had induced her to believe that the two items were different portions of the same article, and had purposely been published to wound her feelings and reflect on the memory of her son. We would not intentionally wrong or injure the feelings of any person in the manner here referred to, and we hope all interested will deem satisfactory the full explanation here made.

Obituary. Omar Jordon was born in Jefferson county, April 17, 1877, and died in Greencastle, Aug. 29, 1893. About three years ago the family removed from Richmond, Ind., to this place to avail themselves of the educational advantages. Omar attended the public school for two years and last fall entered the Junior class of the Preparatory School of the University. The year's work was completed creditably and he was looking forward with much pleasure to entering the Middle "lass this fall, when suddenly he was prostrated by typhoid fever, which terminated his earthly career. Although he had been here but a comparatively short period, he had won the esteem of all with whom he was brought in contact. He was one of those bright, wide-awake boys that almost invariably attractattention, by reason of their candor and cheerfulness. Whatever he undertook, whether play or study, was prosecuted heartily and vigorously, nor was he any less zealous in the discharge of his rehgeotis duties; having been received into full membership, in the College Avenue M. E. Church, a year ago last May. The funeral serviies occurred Wednesday afternoon, and were participated in by Drs. Town and Swahlen and Prof. Ogg The pall bearers were his schoolmates, Charles Arnold, Clarence Bassett, Omar Newhouse, John Hunt, Curtiss Frank and Lauren Cane. xx

Osgood, 4 Lowell, Moss. •* Castoria is the best remedy for children of which I am acquainted. I hope the day is not far distant when mothers will consider the real interest of their children, and use Castoria instead of the variousquack nostrums which ore destroying their loved ones, by forcing opium, morphine, soothing syrup and other hurtful agents down their throats, thereby sending them to premature graves.” Da.

IL’iiu'inlu'r In all cooking receipts calling for Baking Powder, or Cream of Tartar and 5oda, Dr. Price’s Cream Baking Powder Will give better results. Simply use one teaspoonful of Dr. Price’s Cream Baking Powder to each pint of flour, or in the proportion of two teaspoonfuls to every pound of flour. How to avoid Alum and Ammonia Baking Powders: First, All powders offered at twenty-five cents or less a pound can safely be discarded as Alum, for a Pure Cream of Tartar Powder cannot be sold at such price. Second, Avoid all brands labeled “Absolutely Pure,” Chemical analysis, as revealed by the Scientific American report, proved that brands so labeled contained, in every instance, either Ammonia or Alum. The first aim of a dishonest man ufacturer is to deceive by his label. Dr. price’s Cream palung panther not only does finer and better work, but its purity has never been questioned.
