(TfREE TRIP TO KNOX I GUS REISS’ Public Sale Of $30,000 Worth of Clothing, Shoes, Furnishings, Hats, etc., a at the Mercy of the Public for 9 Days only, I Beginning Saturday, July 30,1910 I A SALE WITH A REASON. Cii cumstances h« ve ’ combined to make this sale advisable at this season of the year. I bought very heavily, anticipating a big trade, but disastrous weather conditions have left me r heavily overstocked, and I am compelled to sacrifice my big stock in order to sell while merchandise is in ‘ demand. I must sustain an immediate loss or risk a greater loss later, so prefer to face the situation squarely and start this Public Sale now at a time when my friends and patrons can benefit to the fullest by this great bargain treat, right in the heart of the season, just when other merchants are charging you big profits. The loss I sustain in this sale will be fully compensated by the accomplishment of my purpose—turning my surplus stock into cash as quickly as possible. A word to the wise is sufficient. The Store with the reputation. For twenty years this store has been established and doing business in Knox. For twenty years our word has been our bond. I will continue to do business on the same honorable fines that have marked my in Knox for the past man}' years. I herein guarantee every price, every statement, and will absolutely and cheerfully refund the money on every garment not satisfactory to the purchaser. You may take it home, keep it five days, and if not entirely satisfactory you can return it and your money will be cheerfully refunded. I will continue to give the people the best and greatest values in clothing, etc. Our 16-store purchasing power, coupled with our wide knowledge of the mercantile business makes us masters of the clothing field in Indiana forever. This sale is bona fide and legitimate and will be for 9 days only. Every man, woman and child in Knox and surrounding country are well aware of the high grade merchandise that I have carried for the past twenty years.

All report an enjoyable time. We understand Perry Marlatt is going to move to Rensselaer, and take the world easier. We are sorry to lose Mr. Marlatt’s from this vicinity as they are good neighbors. The latest news from friends in North Dakota is not very encouraging. T. G. Brown’s crop is all lost, and he went back to his old trade of blacksimthing. Walter Brown received a fractured jaw, hut we did not learn the cause for it. Walter, and Frank Brown are coming hack to old Indiana as soon as they can. James Stanley and Samuel Holmes are working on the railroad. Boys, ora Jasper is mighty hard to beat.

A failing tiny nerve—no larger than the finest silken thread—takes from the Heart its impulse, its power, its regularity. The Stomach also has its hidden, or inside nerve. It was Dr. Shoop who first told us it was wrong to drug a weak or failing Stomach, Heart or Kidneys. His prescription—Dr. Shobp’s Restorative — is directed straight for the cause of these ailments-^ —these weak and faltering inside nerves. This, no doubt, clearly explains why the Restorative has of late grown so rapidly in popularity. Druggists say that those who test the Restorative even for a few days soon become fully convinced of its wonderful merit. Anyway, don’t drug the organ. Treating the cause of sickness is the only sensible and successful way. Sold by A F. Long.

The pickle company have got their tanks lined up in their building, and have put in the flooring. They are about ready to take in pickles. Dr. Fyfe was called in Sunday to see ‘Mat Karr’s little girl, who was very ill. It was feared that she had an attack of typhoid fever, but she is all right at this writing.

A LETTER FROM ('AMIiRIIMJK, IOWA.

Mr. Editor—l will drop you a few lines if you want to give space in the standard paper of Jasper county, so the readers of The Democrat can see I am yet alive and in the lau© of lowa, and am very well pleased. The weather Is very dry here, pastures all dried up, meadows look dead and most all the farmers are feeding their stock on hay. We had a light rain last night that did a little good and was highly appreciated, but would have been better pleased for a dozen times as much more. This is the first rain since June 3. lowa people thought it was dry last fall, but it’s dryer now than then. The river is the lowest since '69, so I, hear the old sutlers say. Corn looks well considering the drouth, oats fine, wheat very goon, rye fine. Hogs are $8.60 per 100 pounds; beef cattle $4.25 to $5.40: corn 56 cents; wheat 90 cents; rye 61 cents; timothy hay sl2 per ton. out of the meadows. The lowa wild hay has a ready sale at $8 per ton. Old hens are 10 cents per pound; turkeys 15 cents per pound. The threshing machines start in our neighborhood’ to-morrow morning with a case of beer and whatever the other may be; Our township is supposed to be dry, but t if some of the Hoosiers would see OHr Norwegian town they would think it had stole the center plank out of the republican platform. I see
