Mr. and Mrs. Swank of Chalmers, spent Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Tribby. It is said that E. F. Emery, now of Jennings county, was married some tnonths ago. Stephen Yeoman of Indianapolis, was the guest of his parents here several days this week. Mrs. Hal Sheetz and mother, Mrs. Spencer, left Wednesday for their new home in Indianapolis.

Miss Lula Coppock of Indianapolis, came Saturday to trim for Miss Harper during the spring millinery season.

E. Harlacher, at Monticello, the happy man being Mr. Charles Tevis, a well-to-do young farmer of near Monticello. The numerous friends of the bride here extend congratulations. A fire broke out in Goodland last Saturday night about 10 o’clock and destroyed five business buildings, Burgess' hardware store, the postoffice, Toyne’s grocery, the Goodland Bank and Stein’s clothing store. A crowd from here took the <ld fire engine and went down but arrived too late to give them much assistance. The wisdom of Mr. Babcock, while conducting the Press here, in advocating and finally, through his efforts, securing a fine system of waterworks in preference to electric lights, has olten been demonstrated in Remington. Several times our town would have been practically wiped out by fire had it not been for our waterworks. The recent experience of Wolcott and Goodland makes us appreciate them the more.

BLACKFORD.

Ccorge Jenkins is seriously sick. Mr. Lesh has four horses for sale. And "Doc" Nichols wants to be county *rea surer! “Winter still lingers in the lap of Spring," it seems. Abe Miller has moved on his new farm just north of Blackford. There have probably been more changes in Barkley tp., farmers this year >than ever before in its history, Nathan Eldredge, who is a candidate for the nomination for county commissioner against Fred Waymire, is an old and much respected resident of Barkley tp. He is a straight, upright, honest man, against whom not one word can be said. His opponent for the nomination is a newcomer who has held his residence in another district until three weeks ago. Which of these men, good people, should receive the nomination by all equity and justice? Now that the county council has appropriated money to pay that Burford judgment and the commissioners have allowed the same, perhaps some of our misguided republican friends will believe there was something in The Democrat's statement r three years ago, that Jasper county was paying for two sets of stationery and receiving but one. Like sts expose of the Gifford railroad fraud and numerous other steals, time has proven conclusively that it was correct sn its statements.

The parents of the deceased have the sympathy of the community in the ir affliction. Frank McCarthy says that love is a grand delusion, fantastically gowned in the clothes of a Nymph, which is sent forth to crush the jnner nature of un-i-uspectii.g young men and to place upon their once fertile head the round bald spot.

OBITUARi.

Joseph Klanska, whose death occurred March 14, was born in Germany, March 27, 1854. He came to America in the spring of 1872, locating near Sheldon, 111. He united with the United Brethren church shortly after, of which church he remained a member until the time of death. He was united in marriage with Malina Caughenour, Sept* mber 10,1878. He leaves a wife, two brothers and many friends to mourn his loss. One brother, August Klanska, resides in Kankakee tp., and the other in Germany. He came to Jasper county about six years ago. He was a member of I. O. 0. F. lodge No. 340, at Sheldon, 111., and was also a member of Encampment No. 81, at Watseka. 111. The funeral was conducted by members of the above lodge of which he had been a member for twenty years. The remains were accompanied to Sheldon by members of Wheatfield lodge I. 0. O.

BRAIN-FOOD NONSENSE. Another ridiculous food fad has been branded by the most competent authorities. They have dispelled the silly notion that one kind of food is needed for brain, another for muscles, and still another for bones. A correct diet will not only nourish a particular part of the body, but it will sustain every other part. Yet, however good your food may be, its nutriment is destroyed b) indigestion or dyspepsia. You must prepare for their appearance or prevent their coming by taking regular doses of Green’s August Flower, the favorite medicine of the healthy millions. A few doses aids digestion, stimulates the liver to healthy action, purifies the blood, and makes you feel buoyant and vigorous. You can get Dr. G. G. Green's reliable remedies at Long's Drug Store.
