The money will jingle in the pockets of the farmers for a time, old debts will be paid, new ones contracted, and the local business Held will be temporarily stimulated. The late Cornelius Vanderbilt, it is stated, contributed more money to encourage the establishment of railroad brauches of the Young Men's Christian Association than any railway oHicial in the country, although M.

Tb? new copy books for the schools of Indiana have been put together in an objectionable way. The writing is vertical, and is done with a pen, before being engraved and printed. The punctuation is poor, and the whole work is crudely done, and must be changed before the majority of the educators of the stale will accept the books. There was carelessness in the letting of the contract. J. V. Kirk arrived from Mentone today, after a two weeks absence from this city. Recently he has been engaged as lawyer on the side of the defendant in the case of the State of Indiana vs. 1'axton at Mentone.

The public schools in Rremen opened Monday with a large enrollment, not withstanding that one more new teacher v.'a8 added this fall, every room is crowded to its fullest capacity, and the school board is at a loss to know how to accomodate the increased attendance. An odd, but expensive conflagration, took place on the Keenly farm east of town last Thursday. During the noon hour a threshing machine belonging to the Caspars, which had been in use all

morning caught fire and almost ruined the machinery before ir could be put out. The origin of tht odd conflagration i? thought to bt a hot box, though no one remembered of seeing smoke before they went to dinner. Daniel K. Shenelield and Miss Rosa Miller were married at the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs John Miller, in Bremen at live o'clock on last Sunday evening. The ceremony was performed by Kev. W. Ci.

The lawyers beat the doctors in that game of base ball yesterday with u final showing of 54 to It is hinted tht a case of prosecution is about to be en tered acainst the wary physicians who t sems ran the lawyers so many times around the diamond that the latter are foot worn and crippled. Of course the whole thing was the mere execution of a preconceived plan on the part of the physicians. Their patronage is a little dull, it is thought, and they 6eized upon the opportunity as the best way in their power, to create a demand for doctor ing. From Monday's Dally.

In the game of ball between Plym onth and the Lake of the Woods yester day Plymouth was again victorious. It was a hard fought contest though and before the finish neither side was certain of winning. The recruiting ollicers who are in this city have made their headquarters with Dr. Wilson. Their lists are a! ready tilling up and it is a safe conjee ture to say they will take a large num ber from this county.

The business men of a Minnesota town of COO inhabitants get together a day in each week and offer a prize o ; to the farmer who drives the greatest distance to town on business No tramp will be considered. He must market some hogs or some pro duct of the farm, or do some trading either buy some hardware or general merchandise, get a shave or patronize the doctor or dentist.

It has proven the drawing card for the town, and men with families come a distance of forty-live miles or more. Kind NVgro Iturled hi Tlii County.

Women in Kfderal Offle-. It is very sugaestive news that comes to us from Washington City that women are practically being barred out of the government departments there. Every sort of an excuse is given for this discrimination against women but the true one. The discovery of these feminine disabilites has only recently been made. Ever since he experiment of appointing women was first tried, nearly forty years ago, successive heads of departmnnts have testified to the

satisfactory work of their women em ployees. They have even in some cases given women credit for greater punctuality, industry and etliciency than men. The U. S. Labor Commissioner, Hon. Carroll 1). Wright, says in a recent re port that, where women are employed hey are regarded as more reliable, neat, ndustrious and polite than men, and consequently are more desirable in places for which they are fitted. Wy oming ana utan, me commissioner ayp, are the only states where women receive equal wages with men in reurn for equal work by legislative en actment. Although some progress hes been made in this direction in the last ew years, Mr. Wright thicks there is still too much inequality. Civil-Service Commissioner Harlow says that me commission nas a ioDg ist of excellent women eligible for apwintmeiit, but that it cannot get the appointing otlicers to take them. The heads of the departments are ashamed to confess the real reason for this un just dsscrimination which is a political one. Women have no votes and are therefore without political influence the places which women hold are needed as perquieites, and are given in pay ment for political services. There is an immense pressure brought to bear by local i oliticians throughout, the country for these places. Consequently, when ever there is a vacancy to be rilled, the heads of the departments and chiefs of bureaus almost invariably ask for a man. The civil-service regulations recognize the right to discriminate be tween the sexes, and whenever a requisition is made for a clerk, steno grapher or typewriter, the commission certifies only the names of men. The Roston, Mass., Gazette, very sig nificantly asks: " hat is the opinion of the national government as to the rights of women to earn a living and what . m . ft. can be said lor the dismissal oi so many women employees of the govern ment? An otlicial answer tc this question would prove most interesting reading." Such an injustice would never occur in a 6tate wrere women nave tne uailot, and the working womau will sooner or later learn that the ballot is ueces sary to protect her in her right to earn her own living. Elinoka M. Raiscock. Itrightsitle Xott'tt. House-cleaning will begin at the in stitution next week, and this fact and the confusion incident to building, will close the home to Thursday visitors un til after the first of November.

U. H. Appointments. The U. 1J. conference hld at Bourbon is over and the several divines have received their appointments.

What it did: It spoiled fishing; it broke up croquet parties; it made driving miserable; it caused a prevalence of colds; it caused the dust to roll from umbrellas; it increased the sale of rubbers; it increased the sale of shingles; it brought joy to the hearts of farmers; it moistened the ground for plowing; it saved the pasturage for a few more weeks; it tilled the cisterns with pure, clean crystaljit washed away the tiltby accumulations of the drouth and thus prevented pest and woe. Advance in L.iiinltr. The price of lumber has advanced phenomenally in the past six months owing to the unusual demand. A man engaging in the lumber business now is forced to carry the same stock with an outlay of 50 per cent more capital than was required sometime ago. In this vicinity there has been much lees building than in former ynars, but comparatively the country trade has been much better than the local city trade. rfiilr-'r:iwforl WimMIiijj.

They have been in receipt of many handsome presents since the announcement of their marriage. THE ILKI I.KillT. Tln laitirT .signal That Must Alwnyn lie Oheyt'ri. When there is danger on the railroad a red light is displayed. To run by this signal means death or injury to the passengers. All through life we see the danger signals and, if unheeded, sorrow, despair, and sometimes death result. These warnings are sent out by man or nature for our protection. Nature sends out a warning signal when her laws have been disobeyed and there ia danger of going farther before the wrong has been righted. The best machinery needs oil, so does the human machine. The system becomes run down and needs to be built up. It must be placed in a healthy condition before it will do its work properly. If the blood is impure and the liver torpid, the stomach fails to do its work and dyspepsia, nervousness, catarrh, hef.daches and constipation are the result. These are nature's signals. Heed them before it is too late. A new combination of thoroughly tried and tested remedies called Knox Stomach Tablets are now offered to suffering humanity. This new vegetable remedy goes to the se3t of these disorders, buildc up the whole system and transforms the weak and infirm into hjalthy men and women. A single box will be a most forcible argument to the sufferer. Knox Stomach Tablets immediately relieva indigestion and are a positive cure for dyspepsia. If your druggist does not sell them, 6end fifty cents with your address and that of the druggist to the Knox Chemical Co., Battle Creek, Mich., and a full sized box will be sent postpaid.
