The Democrat is in receipt of a letter from the Lewis Publishing Co., of St. Louis, Mo., who recently purchased the good will and subscription list of the Chicago Daily Review in which they state that they will not be ready to issue the Woman’s National Daily until early in January, when all subscriptions to theJßeview, will be filled out for the unexpired term. The largest newspaper press in the world, they state, with a capacity of 300, 000 eight page papers per hour, is now being constructed for them and will soon be in place. They state that the new paper will be superior to the Review in every way and that subscribers to the latter will not regret the change. The Democrat believes the Lewis Publishing Co., to be thoroughly reliable and financially able to carry out its obligations in every way. The concern is capitalized at $3,500,000. Subscribers to the Review who were paid in advance will receive the new paper for the unexpired time, beginning with the first regular issue in January.

EVERGREENS. We are in the lead with many different kinds of well shaped 4 to 15 feet trees, for church, school or home use. I order direct from the nursery, so a little time is required. Price list sent on application C. L. Parks, R-R-3. Rensselaer, Ind. MORE CORN. Raised on what has long been known as the Jared Benjamin farm. This particular field has been farmed ever since 1837, yielding this year 80 bushels per acre. The ears are down where you can reach them; the kernels are deep. The seed was obtained last spring at a high price from one of the best corn producing sections of Illinois. This corn is yellow and was a winner at the St. Louis Exposition, as well as Illinois State fair. Will sell a limited amount this fall at $1 per bushel. It will pay you to see this corn whether you buy or not. O. C. Halstead, R-R-3 Rensselaer, Ind. THANKSCHVINU BALL. ~ There will be a grand ball at the Armory on Thanksgiving eve, Nov. 30.
