BUTCHER IS REPENTANT.

Asks Forgivness of Public for Mixing Tallow with Lard. Warsaw, Ind., Nov. 21.—Because his conscience hurts him, Frank Spera, a former resident of Akron, Ind., has caused to be inserted in various newspapers in this vicinity the following announcement: "I want to make restitution and beg pardon of the people through the newspapers. When I was in the butcher business in Akron, I mixed tallow with lard and Bold It to my customers. I ask all of these people in Jesus’ name to forgive me of the offence; and if there are any who are *hot satisfied with just forgiving me, if they will send me a statement of the amount that they think they were wronged, honestly, between God and man, I will make all wrongs right.”
