Safe Storm Fronts at Worland's while they last at $4 eaoh. Rensselaer is becoming quite metropolitan these days, with a palmist, two five oent theatres, eto. Arthur Putt of Jordan tp., deposited un ear of corn on our table a few days ago that measured exactly 13 inches in length. It measured 13| inches when first shucked. It was well filled out and matured although.not planted until about the 24th of June. /"Torn Cain ia nursing a sore hand these days. Some three weeks ago he cut it slightly on a transfer wheel while working in the Babcock & Hopkins elevator. Blood poisoning developed and he has been having quite a serious time with it, but it is getting better now. Miss Lena Rioheson of south of town, mention of whose critical condition was made recently by The Democrat, died Saturday morning and the remains were taken to Ewing, 111., Monday, the former borne of her parents, for burial. Deceased was a little over 28 years of age and was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Howell Richeson, who moved to this county from near Ewing, 111., upon a farm near Sharon a few years ago.
The football game here last Saturday between the Rensselaer militia team and the First Regiment team from Chicago resulted in neither side making a score. The rain of nearly two days had made the ground in nice condition, like a hog-wallow, so that there was not much danger of any of the players seriously injuring themselves. There was a scrap or two, it is reported, and a few blows struck but no one was badly hurt. A couple of the Rensselaer players were temporarily placed hors de combat during the progress of the game.
Times have changed in many ways. In former times when a man got a pain in his stomach, his wife laid a hot stove lid on him and the next morning he was ready to slop the hogs, feed the calf and kick the cat. Now if he gets an uncomfortable feeling back of his waist band the doctor calls it appendicitis, lays him on a table, cats a hole in his anatomy and he dies, maybe. Again, in the old days you could take your razor or your jack knife and trim your corns, put on your boots and plough all day. Now if you even scrape the top of your horny toe, blood poison sets in and off comes your leg. This is a strenuous age, and don’t you forget it. —Ex.

No other remedy or treatment for catarrh has ever been as popular or made so many remarkable cures in Rensselaer as Hyomei. The best people attest its curative virtues, says B. F. Fendig, who is the local agent. The fair way in which Hyomei was sold, to refund the money unless it gave satisfaction, was the best proof when it was introduced that it possessed unusual curative powers. B. F. Fendig took all the risk of the treatment giving satisfaction, and left it to the purchasers to be judge. Later, when Hyomei was used and recommended by our wellknown physicians and business men and their wives as a treatment that absolutely cured catarrh no matter how serious or long standing, the sales rapidly grew and to-day there is no other remedy in B. F. Fendig’s stock that has such a large and staple sale. The first breath of Hyomei’s healing air kills all catarrhal poison.' Try Hyomei to-day on B. F. Fendig’s offer to refund the money if the treatment does not give you satisfaction. . ,„ r Cured of Bright’s Disease. Mr. Robert 0. Burke, Elnora, N. writes: “Before I started to use Foley’s Kidney Cure I had to get up from twelve tb twenty times a night, and I was all bloated up with dropsy and my eyesight was so impaired I could scarcely see one of my family across the room. I had given up hope of living, when a friend recommended Foley's Kidney Cure. One 60 cent bottle worked wonders and bej fore I had taken the third bottle the dropsy had gone, as well aa all other symptoms of ' Bright s disease.” A. F. Long.
