The threshermen that do not join the trust will get the work this year. We overheard a conversation between a boy and a girl on this wise. The boy opened the dialogue by saying: "Weil, wrhat do you think? I have traded try git] off for a pair of suspenders.” "You

have," said the girl, with a smile of sur» prise, “why I have been trying for the past two months to trade my fellow off for a pair of shoes but no one seems to want to trade." OUR CELEBRATION.

Hanley of Rensselaer, Our sister -.owns did their share in furnishing large delegations. The interest that they'took in making the celebration a success, will always be fresh in our minds.

V. have demonstrated that they are stalwart, progressive, up-to-date, and that they know the way to manage affairs. In behalf of the D. V.

Treat Your Kidneys for Rheumatism.

When you are suffering from rheumatism, the kidneys must be attended to at once so that they will eliminate the uric acid from the blood. Foley's Kidney Cure is the most effective remedy for this purpose. R.T. Hopkins, of Polar, Wis., says. "After unsuccessful doctoring three years for rheumatism with the best doctors, I tried Foley's Kidney Cure and it cured me. I cannot speak too highly of this great medicine. A. F. Long.

MARSHAL COUNTY LETTER.

Plymouth, Ind., July 6. Mr. Editor:—Dear Sir. I thought I would write a few lines once more. We have been having some very heavy rains in this county, making it difficult to save the wheat crop. The most of the farmery have a pretty fair crop of wheat. There is not as much oats raised in this county as in Jasper, the main crops being corn, wheat and hay. On July 2d we bad one of the worst hail storms this county ever had. I expect there was more broken wiudow glass in this city than ever was before at onetime. One factory had 491 glass broken and another bad about 300. Stores and dwellings suffeied about the same proportion. I bad four large glass broken which cost me $4 to replace. Some of the people report hail as large as hen's eggs; I saw some as large as hulled walnuts. There were several fields of wheat almost ruined and corn and potatoes were almost beaten into the ground. We have not had any rain to amount to anything since the hail storm. Huckleberries are just beginning to come in to the market. I guess there is a pretty good crop of them this year. There will be no pea< hes here this year but there is a fair crop of ail kinds of small fruit. If it does not rain this week there will be a great deal ol wheat and hay cut aroundhere. We hear some great fish stories from the lakes around here but whether they true or not I could not say as I have not fished any. It seems a little funny to me to see no plows around the blacksmith shops to be repaired. Nearly all use the cast plows, they dont have them sharpened. I must close as this is too long now. Print this if you see fit. Yours truly,

E. M. Timmons

Very Remarkable Cure of Diarrhoea.

“About six years ago for the firstUme Id my life I had a sudden and severe attack of diarrhoea," says Mrs. Alice Miller, of Morgan, Texas. “I got temporary relief, but it came back again and again, and for six long years I have suffered more misery and agony than 1 can tell. It was worse than death. My husband spent hundreds of dollars for physician’s prescriptions and treatment without avail. Finally we n oved to Bosque couuty. our present home, and one day I happened to see an advertisement of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy with a testimonial of a man who had been cured by it. The case was so similar to my own that I concluded to try the remedy. The result was wonderful. I could hardly realize that I was well again, or believe it could be so after having suffered so long, but that one bottle of medicine, costing but a few cents, cured me.” For sale by A. F. Long.
