Mrs. Mattie Wasson returned Thursday evening from a visit with her daughter, Mrs. A. E. Coen, at Berwyn, 111. Mrs. Coen was taken to St. Luke’s hospital, Chicago, Thursday where she underwent a successful operation for appendicitis. Elijah Stevens, who was called to Hammond last week by his wife, who is visiting there, having been injured, it was thought, very seriously from a fall, returned home Monday. She was considerably improved, but not able to return home. Mrs. Sam Wiles, who had been over at Monon with her father, Edward Webb, who was in quite a critical condition for some time, returned home Monday, leaving her father much improved. Mrs. Wiles herself was ill for several days while there from tonsilitis. Mrs. Ida Pierce came up from Greencastle last week to visit her daughter, Mrs. James Thompson, of south of town, and to gee what damage the wind did to her farm buildings.

Two big new square houses are being erected over in the northeast part of town, south of the railroad, one by Frank Miller, th,. Monon section boss, and one by Vein Hopkins. Hiram Day is also putting up two more houses for rental this spring, both of cement block construction. One is located north of the railroad, east of Mr. Day’s own residence, and one on Pine street, just east of Division. We have had showery and disagreeable weather fpr the past few days. Saturday was a very decent day and there was a large number of country people in town, but Sunday and Monday were rainy and nasty, and the roads have become in a terribly bad condition once more, the Rensselaer Remington road in places being almost impassable. Yesterday was cloudy and drear, but “fair and warmer” was the prediction for today. New Spring Hats Stetson spring styles now in. Begin with your head and you’ll Hamillize all over. The worst extravangance is waste of time; but it is not extravagance TO READ THIS AD I have three makes of buggies for sale that can not be topped by any firm in four states—Binkley, Page Bros, and Studebaker. All are guarantee jobs. Just received the Binkley car, call and inspect same. All three styles have been sold off my floors for years. All these buggies are up-to-date in style and quality and the prices are right, too. No advance at my shop nor loss of quality. On Front Street, Rensselaer, Ind. Yours respectfully, CHAS. A. ROBERTS.
