Geo. Robinson, who has charge of telephone line work on an exchange at Connersville. Ind., is visiting relatives here this week. To date sixteen deaths have occurred as a result of the Big-4 wreck at Indianapolis last Saturday, and at least two* more of the injured are in a critical condition. Jack Montgomery went to Indianapolis on business Saturday afternoon. He went out and saw the Big 4 wreck and says it was a terrible mess of twistod iron, broken up cars and wreckage. It was a miracle, he thought, that any one in the front coach escaped instant death. Advertised letters: Miss Carrie Smith (2); Mrs. J. B.

Anothertellow said that Montgomery Ward spent a hundred dollars in advestising among the farmers of Benton county where the village druggist spent a cent and for that reason be got the first corn money. For my part, I am perfectly to admit that there is something in that.— Fowler Leader. Two sons of A 1 May, residing a few miles northwest of town arrived home from the Klondike gold fields a few dayß ago and will remain for the winter. One of the boys who has been located there on a claim for four years has accumulated quite a handsome fortune. His younger brother was there only two years.— Wolcott Enterprise.

Momence Reporter: At one o’clock yesterday afternoon, Oct. 22, occurred a pretty home wedding when Mies C. M. Styles of this city and Mr. George Holly of Beaver City, Ind., pledged their troth. Following the ceremony a wedding feast was partaken of. The young people departed on the afternoon train for Chicago where they will visit for a few days 'before taking up their residence at Beaver City.

True to the letter is this advertising advice: The concern whose advertisments appear only occasionally loses one of the most valuable elements in attracting business —the cumulative effect of regular announcements, which makes the name familiar and associates it with the article advertised. This effect can be produced only by persistent use of appropriate mediums, and when once secured it can be maintained only by the same means. It requires just as much effort to hold prestige as to gain it, and there can be no “resting on the oars’’ for the man who would keep abreast of or beyond competition.

The Democrat is placed in the postoffice every Friday evening in time to be sent out on the 6:15 mail train south and the 6:35 north. In addition to this there is an 8:00 p. m., mail sent out from the Rensselaer postoffice. "Wolcott, Remington, Goodland and Kentland subscribers should get their Democrat on the early east-bound mail Saturday morning, also rural route subscribers from said towns. In addition to this every subscriber in Jasper county should receive his Democrat on Saturday. If it fails to reach your office, call our attention to the matter and we will try and locate the difficulty and have it remedied. The Democrat would again call the attention of prospective range buyers to the advertisement of the Monarch range in another column. This firm is reliable and responsible in every way, and as they send ranges ont on 30 days free trial and pay all charges if it proves unsatisfactory, vou take no chances whatever. You can save from sls to $25 on a range by baying it direct from the Monarch people, who are large manufacturers of malleable iron ranges. This matter is worth looking into. One of these ranges may be seen at the home of the editor of this paper, and prospective range buyers are invited to call ana examine it and learn ite cost. 'sow .
