CONSCIENTIOUS VOTERS.

To conscientious republican and democratic voters who do not want to perpetuate the liquor traffic. I suggest that you get together and “pair” and vote the prohibition ticket. This would not effect the result between the old parties and would increase the prohibition vote, and the only thing that will put down and keep down the liquor traffic is a majority of prohibition votes, Yours for a pure, peaceable, sober conmmunity.— A. G. W. Farmer. A carload of nice Winesap eating and cooking apples, $3.50 a >arrel; $1.25 a bushel; 35c a peck, at — John Eger’s.

The report has been circulated in certain quarters that if Felix R. Erwin is ejected clerk fre will not give the office his personal attention. This report is wholly false. If elected Mr. Erwin will move to Rensselaer and take sole charge of the office and give it his entire attention, and he will make one of the most competent and popular clerks Jasper county ever had. If there is any taxpayer in Jasper county who believes the county got 140 fool of extension —for which it paid five, years ago —oh the Burk’s bridge, let him take a tape line and go out to the bridge and measure it from the point where the old gravel approach appears, to the south endt and he will soon have his mind disabused. Take nobody's word for it. Go measure it and see for yourself. Perhaps one of the largest and m ; °st enjoyable “hen” parties ever given on hallowe’en in Rensselaer was given by Mrs. C A.

Women who are polite in practically all other places sometimes are positively rude at card tables. It would perhaps help them to be self controlled and civil when the game is going against them to remejj)l*er that, after all. it Is ouly a game and, though they lose, their defeat is only temporary. However, different oue may be la fact when one Is losing, and few persons are as Interested when the cards are against them. It is a matter of good breeding to pretend as much enjoyment as when success is on her side. It is not politic to be snappy and dull just because one is losing. Such conduct makes the winning couple extremely uncomfortable. Courtesy, at all times desirably at cards should be regarded as imperative. To comment unfavorably upon the placing of a hand ia the height of 11l tnanuers and need not be excused on tbe ground of instructing the ignorant. A woman who might sincerely wish to play a better game does not care to be criticised and drilled In public, and tbe one giving information la a self appointed teacher who is not desired. At a bridge luncheon recently the players at one table were amused to bear at the completion of every hand a lecture by one of the guest*. Tbe woman who talked played well—all admitted that—but tbe afternoon was not a class In card playing. It was a social meeting where each woman wan supposed to stand upon tbe merits of her game. Tbe woman who did the talking waa not diiiagreeable, nor did she select one person for her victim. Impartially she instructed tbe whole table, with tbe result that when she had gone at the end of tbe afternoon those remaining later declared that she bad almost spoiled their game. Tbe correct thing for her to have done was to remain quiet, no matter bow poor the playing of others might be. If she were asked any questions as to what to do she might have answered briefly and courteously, but she should have remembered that the afternoon was oue of relaxation and. amusement, not of instruction. Tbe woman who loses her temper with her partner commits ~an unpardonable breach of good manners. No is it enough to control tbe tongue alone at such times. Manner as well must be courteous, and one who cannot regard these dictates of good breedln* should never play cards.
