HAPPENINGS IN OUR NEIGHBORING VILLAGES

1 WHEATFIELD Wheat and oats are looking ver* promising. : Part of our soldier boys are in Texas. Would appreciate a letter from them. Miss Fern Goin of South Bend visited her father and friends here last Sunday. Darrel Dewey visited at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Roy Blue Saturday evening and Sunday. A pickle storage plant is being built at Tefft. That is surely good news. Congratulations. Mr. and Mrs. Grover Stembel and son visited at the home of Mr. and Mrs. G. M. Dewey Tuesday evening. Louis Misch went to Rensselaer Tuesday evening to take his last degree in the Knights of Columbus lodge. Morris McCullough and Trustee Davis of Kankakee township were in town Monday evening. The former came to take a degree in the Masonic lodge. John East is building some fence on the Dewey ranch. We suppose that Mr. East has built more fence than any man in northern Jasper, and we can say that what he does build is built right He knows the business from top to bottom. The program committee of the Wheatfield Farmers’ club is getting up a fine program for the next meeting. We want to see a full house of interested people. The Wheatfield ladies’ quartet is preparing to render some fine selections. The election results last Tuesday show very plainly that the ladies intend to make good use of their ballots in the future. The old moss-worn talk that they would not vote if given the right was surely given the knock-out blow Tuesday. The local option election held Tuesday put Wheatfield in the dry column by over fifty majority. A majority of the votes cast by the men were in favor of the saloon; but the votes of the ladies were, with the exception of about twentysix, in favor of a dry town. " A large number from here have visited the scene of havoc caused by the cyclone Saturday evening. They report - that Kouts is badly wrecked, with almost all of the trees in the town either blown down or broken off. West of Kouts and all the way to Hebron, which was in the path of the cyclone, is one continual scene of devastation. Hebron was badly damaged in the northwest part of town.

Sloan’s Liniment for Rheumatism The pain goes so quickly after you apply Sloan’s Liniment for rheumatic' pains, neuralgia, toothache, lumbago, sprains, and its so easy’ to use. It quickly penetrates and soothes without rubbing and is far cleaner and more effective than mussy plasters or ointments. Keep a bottle in the house and get prompt relief, not only from all nerve-pains but from bruises, strains, sprains, over-exercise and all external aches. At your druggist, 25c, 50c, $1. —Advt.

FAIR OAKS Health still continues good in our village. Amy Bringle returned ,to Valparaiso Wednesday to attend school. We were favored Wednesday night with a good rainfall, which was very thankfully received. Miss Lola Moore came up from Lafayette Monday to visit a few days with her aunt, Mrs. Bringle. Crops are doing splendidly now, although it has been quite cool. We had quite a heavy frost Monday night. A. D. Washburn of Kentland came up Saturday to see how his son Howard and Peck are getting along with the farming. Jacob Rouns and family of near Brook and Harry Odel and family of Lake Village visited Grandma Manderville and Can Sunday. Tom Johnson got a letter from his soldier boy George Saturday. He is still stationed at El Paso, Texas, with the Fifth artillery. Mrs. John Thorn moved ' her household goods back from Demotte the latter part of the week into her father’s house at the nursery. Grandma Cox of Momence, who was visiting her granddaughter, Mrs. Fred Iliff, of Parr, made her regular Memorial day visit her also. She is moving along up in the eighties and nearing the ninety mark.

We celebrated Memorial day here in the ■..usual way,- although the crowd was not as large as usual. It appears as though a good many have gotten out of the way of observing the day who used to do so. Hon. W L- Wood of Parr delivered a fine address, to which everybody gave him their entire attention. The mechanics, who were repairing the elevator, got the job completed Friday. It was quite a job as there were considerable on two sides rotted away and it required quite a bit of jacking up to . get it level. New lumbejr was put in, besides considerable concrete work in the foundation where the stone had crumbled out. It is now in good shape for the new crop. Jacob Hownld. the old gentleman in Newton county whose condition we have mentioned several times before, passed away Saturday. The funeral was conducted Monday at the residence by Rev. Downey, who once was the M- E. pastor of this charge. After the sermon a specialist from Chicago and Dr. Martin of Mt. Ayr held a post-mortem, but gave out no report. W. J. M right of Rensselaer had charge of the body, which was shipped to Chicago for interment.

never neglect a cold A chill after bathing, cooling off suddenly after exercise and drafts, give the cold- germs a foot-hold that mav lead to something worse. Safety requires early treatment.

MILROY Irma Clark visited home folks Sunday. The church is now painted, Mr. Remington having completed the work last week. A program is being arranged for the joint commencement exercises of the Hanging Grove and Milroy graduates. Betson McCashen came Sunday forenoon to attend his sister s funeral and visit relatives and friends for a short time. « Marie Fisher closed her school last Friday in Wolcott and left Sunday forenoon for Terre Haute to take work there. John Mitchell was not as well again the first of the week. Mrs. Samuel Mitchell of Remington spent the first of the week with the family. Mrs Fred Saltwell, while painting at the church last Friday, fell from where she was standing and struck her shoulder, fracturing the bone of her arm, a very painful injury. Ettie McCashen passed from her suffering into rest, last Thursday evening. The funeral services were conducted Sunday at 3 p. m - by Rev. C. W. PostilL Interment was made in Crockett cemetery. She leaves her mother, three brothers and numerous relatives and friends who will sadly miss her. Last Monday noon the commnnitv was shocked to hear of the sudden death of Mrs. E. C. Marchand, who had had the measles, but grew suddenly worse and died almost before her children could get to her bedside. Mrs. Marchand Was born in Ohio, and with her husband and family had resided in this vicinity for a number of years. She was called suddenly away from the earth May 28 at the age of 43 years. 11 months and 17 days, leaving to mourn their loss her husband, three daughters, two sons, one granddaughter and a large number of neighbors zhnd friends. A precious one from /us is gone, A voice we loved is stilled. And in our hearts a vacant place Which never can be filled.

Catarrh Cannot Be Cured with LOCAL APPLICATIONS, as they cannot reach the seat of the disease. Catarrh is a local disease, greatly influenced by constitutional conditions, and in order to cure it you must take an internal remedy. Hall’s Catarrh Medicine is taken internally and acts through the blood on the mucous surfaces of the system. Hall’s Catarrh Medicine was prescribed by one of the best physicians in this country for years. It is composed of some of the best tonics known, combined with some of the best blood purifiers. The perfect combination of the ingredients in Hall’s Catarrh Medicine is what produces such wonderful results in catarrhal conditions. Send for testimonials, free. F.

THE CRY OF NEED

Awake, arouse, O Ranks of Brown, And strike the armed foeman down! With dire destruction on he speeds, And fiendish fury marks his deeds. Old Ocean’s breast is much perturbed By fierce outrages yet uncurbed; o' Sailor Boys, in loyal blue, The call is loud and long for you. Thy loved nation calls thee out With steady strength this ill to rout; For cause of righteousness and truth Wield thou the lance of lusty youth. Our cause not gore, nor worldly gain, # But human hearts that writhe in pain, , Helpless beneath the despots heel. For these rush on with strength of steel. O Ranks of Brown and Jackies Blue, Our country’s heart beats brave In you. ’ , , For righteousness and love and truth Bring thy rich gift of holy youth. The victory thine —at cost how great— Only the future can relate In years to conie, when peace shall bless Nations secure in righteousness. —Elizabeth Charpie Ash. May 27, 1917.

LOOK HERE FOR IT Many a Rensselaer Reader Will Be „ Interested. When people read about the cures made by a medicine endorsed from far away, is it surprising that they wonder if the statements are true? But when they read of cases right here at home, positive proof Is within their reach, for close investigation is an easy matter. Read Rensselaer endorsement of Doan’s Kidney Pills: E. M. Parcells, barber, Front St., Rensselaer, says: "I nse Doan’s Kidney Pills now and then and they always give me relief frbm kidney disorder. For people afflicted with a dull ache over the kidneys or any other kidney weakness as I had, I feel there is nothing so good as Doan’s Kidney Pills.” Price 50c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney * Pills—the same that Mr. Parcells recommends. Foster-Milburn Co., Props., Buffalo, N.

SPRAY YOUR APPLE TREES

(Continued from page one)

the loss from the codling moth at not less than one-half of the value of the fruit produced in the state, a little time spent in the further care of these orchards would feeerfl' advisable. The time required to spray an orchard is comparatively small and the equipment required is very inexpensive. This promises to be one of those years when fruit will be abundant and apples of high quality will find a sale while inferior grades can not be disposed of at any price. A little time and attention now may add many dollars to the revenue derived from the average farm orchard. STEWART LEAMING, County Agricultural Agent.
