BATTLE OF TIPPECANOE.

There will be Memorial Exercises at the Tippecanoe Battlefield, to-morrow (Sunday), in memory of the heroes there buried. ft There will be an address by Rev. George W. Switzer Gabriel Godfrey, from the Peru Reservation, the last of the Miamis, has promised to be present and relate the pathetic story of Frances Slocum, The Lost Sister of Wyoming—a story which fiction has never equaled. The grounds will be handsomely decorated, and there will be vocal and band music. The Battle of Tippecanoe was the greatest battle ever fought on the soil of Indiana. It was really the first shot in the War of 1812. In 1836 General Tiptpn donated the land on which the battle was fought to the State of Indiana, and since that time the State has cared for it.

HAVE YOU GOT IT?

A new disease has appeared recently, says an exchange, and is known as Mortus Sabbathicua, or Sunday sickness, and is a disease peculiar to church members. The attack comes on suddenly every Sunday. No symptoms are felt Saturday night; the patient sleeps well and eats a hearty breakfast, but about churdh time the attack comes on and continues until the services are over for the morning. Then the patient eats a good dinner. In the afternoon he feels much better and is able to take a walk, talk polit cs and read the Sunday papers; he eats a hearty supper and about church time he has another attack and stays at home. He retires early, sleeps well and wakes up on Monday morning refreshed and able to go to work and does not have any further symptoms of the disease until the following Sunday morning.

MUST DISPLAY SIGNALS.

On and after July 1, 1906, patrons of the rural delivery service will be required to display signals on their boxes when they leave mail in them for carriers to collect, as, after that date, carriers, when serving their routes, will not be required to open and examine any mail boxes except those to which they have mail to deliver and thosp on which signals are displayed to indicate there is mail for carriers to collect. Those patrons whose boxes are not provided with signals must attach thereto some device which, when displayed, will plainly show passing carriers there is mail to be that such device shall be either complicated or costly; a very simple arrangement will answer the purpose. Carriers must lower the signals on the boxes after making collections, provided no mail is left therein; and must display the signals when they deposit mail for patrons, unless the patrons have made request to the contrary.

THE VEGETARIAN’S INNING.

Ciiioluiiati Eugiiirer: Not many men and women have opportunities to witness the operations of the great slaughter house, and perhaps those who have restrained their curiosity are the happiest. It is not a sweet smelling and appetizing spectacle, even when the establishments are conducted with the best possible approximation to cleanliness. A humape family hesitates to take the life of a favorite dog, even when it becomes blind, deaf and a helpless and a miserable burden to itself. But we tolerate the deliberate killing of prime cattle in the pink of life and physical perfection, for the purpose of eating them. We look complacently on the awful hammer which knocks the animal on the head, and, with napkins tucked vulgarly under our chins, gloat and gormandize in tenderloin and “booze.” The vegetarian may be a crank, and opposed to the means of sustenance supposed to be provided by a pow, er transcending human purposes, but he bas splendid defense when he sees the cattle killed by the wholesale for his stomach’s sake. There are people too sensitive to witness the wringing of a chicken’s neck. They would “drop dead” if they could behold the direful executioner wield the hammer in a Chicago slaughter house. Allowence must be made forthem. They have as good a right to be “finicky” as others have to revel in blood, horns and hair. It is altogether a matter of how a person has been raised. The vegetarian has a right to live and promote his idea, and the Administration haa been of remarkable assistance to him of late. Mr. Roosevelt is entitled to the Vegetarian nomination for President in 1908. 10 to 25 per cent off on clothing and shoes, June 4 to July 4. Chicago Bargain Store.

Protect Your Vitality.

B. F. Fendig’s Sensible Advice to Take Care of the Digestion. Did you ever stop to think of the duty that you owe to yourself and to your family to protect your vitality, so that your powers may be always at their best? Just a wonderful and complicated maebnie, perpetually working and wearing out. The vital part of the human machine is the stomach. When it is strong and acts naturally, so that the digestion is perfect and the food that furnishes our steampower is stimulated, and the waste properly removed, then we can do our best work and get the most enjoyment out of life. On the other if the stomach gives out,All the vital organs will soon become weakened and diseased. There will be headaches, back-aches, pains in the sides and limbs, specks before the eyes, loss of appetite, sleeplessness, weakness and debility. B. F. Fendig’s very sensible advise for people to take care of the digestion by' strengthening the stomach with Mi-o-na tablets, a remedy which he absolutely guarantees is a positive cure for all stomach troubles, except cancer of the stomach, and sells it with the understanding that it costs nothing unless it cures. Just as soon as you feel that your food does not properly digest, that you taste it after eating, that the tongue is furred, the breath is heavy, the appetite poor the head dull and aching, begin the use of Mi-o-na stomaclt tablets. This is not a patent medicine, and its formula is furnished to all intelligent people who may desire it. It makes positive and lasting cures, and is sold under an absolute guarantee that it cures all diseases of the stomach excepting cancer. Ask B. F. Fendig to show you the guarantee be gives with every 30 cent box of Mi-o-na. A

OVERDRAFT WAS WORTHLESS ALL THE SAME.

Here is a little clipping from Blodgett’s report of the McCoy i trial that has not appeared, we bei lieve, in any of the republican I papers of Jasper county: During the cross-examination of Mr. Chapman he testified as to the worthlessness of the overdraft for $l5B of the Jasper County Republican Central Committee, of which Moses Leopold, one of the attorneys for the State, is secretary. “Wnat are your politics? ’ asked Mr. McHugh. “I am a Republican,” answered the witness “Do you mean to tell me that the Republican central committee of Jasper county would allow an overdraft of this nature to go unpaid?” queried Mr. McHugh. “I do. The overdraft is worthless.” “Did you ever know the Republican party to fail to redeem a promise of any kind?” thundered Mr. McHugh, whois a well-known Democrat. The answer of the witness was lost in the laugh that followed.
