His paper, entitled "Alphonse Daudet and His Intimates," appears in the Christmas numbe.- of the "New Lippincott." The Xmas number of the "New Lippincott" has a etriking frontpiece by Henry IL Poore, A. N. D., an artist who has several times interpreted lovingly the story of the Star of Bethlehem. There are also Christmas poems by Albert Bigelow Paine, "The Little Child," and by Thomas Welch, "At Nazareth."

Some of yon who think you are well up in spelling just try to spell the words in this little sentence: "It is agreeable to witüess the unparalleled ecstasy of two harrassed peddlers endeavoring to gauge the symmetry of two peeled pears." Head it over to your friends and see how many of them can spell every word correctly. The sentence contains many of the real puzzlers of the spelling book. Some people are not aware that the governor of Indiana has a distinctive Hag of his own, which is carried after him when he rides fourth in state. It is made of white taffeta silk, in size is about four by six feet, and has the eeal of Indiana hand-painted on either side. It adorns the governor's parlor most of the time, but when the chief executive reviews the troops, the tlag is used as a marker, to designate his position. An old maid stood on the steamboat deck, whence all but her had tied, and calmly faced a kissing bug that circled over head. The maidens shrieked and the matrons swooned, and the men all swore amain, but the game old maid like a hero stayed ind whispered "come again." There was a buzz a thunder sound the old maid was she dead? Nay, Bt ill she stood and cried for more, but the kissing bug had lied. Ex. The editor of the Hudson Banner has written up the divorce case of a brother editor in this spicy style: "Editor Nusbaum, of the Shipshewana Tribune, has been given the dirty shake by his wife, with assistance of the Elkhart county court. She couldn't endure the heading of the paper, which always started out wirh 'ShipBhe,' and ehe concluded to ship-he, and has shipped the editor whether he 'wana' or not." From Monday' Dally.

Heese, of Bluffton, Ohio, who has been visiting his brother David at Harris, passed though here this morning on his homeward j urney. A. A. Molter left this morning on a bnsiness trip to Kenosha, Wis., to be gone three or four days. He was accompanied as far as Chicago by his two little daughters.

A tramp got into a farm house near North Manchester a few nights ago and fell down a shaft into an open barrel of molasses in the cellar. Half of the sweet 6 tuff stuck to him and the balance will not taste just right. It is sail the Clizbe Bros, manufacturing company will make their addition 70xU0 feet instead of 00x150 feet. Mr. Clizbe hopes to be in running order by the middle of this week but if not then, by the first of December. The Times states that Warsaw is afflicted with an epidemic of typhod fever among the children, some six or eight children now being down with the terrible disease. There has so far been one fatal case, that of the six year old daughter of City Marshal Moon. There are many claims to the honor of being the youngest soldier in Indiana to enlist in the civil war. The lstest claimant is Joby A. Rowland, who declares that he was born Oct. 6, 1840, and enlisted in the 57th Indiana regiment of volunteers, was a prisoner in Libhy,and was exchanged. Yellow river has suddenly become exceptionally productive of large fish. Dan Myers, whose good fortune it was to secure a fourteen pound pike from the upper part of the river last week, has again brought to market a huge lish. This one is a little larger than the former and weighs 18 pounds.
EX. WALLACE'S TIM) ITT I'OND. Indiana Writer lur-liae Land ami Will Proceed to Beautify It. Gen. Lew Wallace has completed the improvements tt his study and will now devote time to trout breeding. He has purchased a tract of laud four miles west of Crawfordsville, and wiil make a preserve of it. This land is watered by some magnificent springs, which would supply by their output a large artiticnl lake: The water even in the hottest months is cold and is admirably adapted to trout. A trout stream will be constructed and properly dammed near its junction with Hock river, which borders the general's purchase, to prevent the escape of the tinny pete. It is likely that some rustic buildings will also be constructed on the property, part of which is beautifully wooded, and a sort of poet's summer retreat, established there. lieeember Weather. Parson Hicks predicts rouga weather for December. He did the same for November, and it didn't come true. He says: "December 1st and 2nd will be under the reaction period beginning in November. Moon Is new at an eclipse node on the 2nd, hence low barometer, warm weather and storms, and storms will continue over that date. Severe storms and seismic shakes in many parts of the globe. Cold wave from 3rd to 0th. A regular storm period from Cth to Oth, during which snow and rain will visit most sections. Another general cold wave about 7th to 11th. Heactionary storm conditions will again be central on the 12th and 13th, ending in change to cjlder from 14th to 16th. From the 16th to the 10th, many storms may be expected on sea and land, followed by blizzards and sweeping cold wave reaching far south and lasting up to return of storm conditions about 23 to 25. December ends in a combined Vulcan and Mercury period, caMing for heavy snow and blizzards, with great cold wave reaching in January, 1000."
Koss House Change Hand. John Bowell has closed the deal with Miss Bertha M. Carra, of Elkhart, whereby the manasement of the Hoss House passes to Miss Carra, she having purchased the fixtures and good will. For some time negotiations have been on but the deal was not closed until Saturday evening. Miss Carra conducted the Bucklen House at Elkhart for four years and is well acquainted with the business.

Mr. Bowell has already leased the vacant room on the corner of Lapirte and Center streets and will put in a stock of dry goods at once. He expects to go to Chicago yet this week t. purchase his 6tock.
AT Till: CIIUIU HKS. ST. PAUL'S liEKOKMED CHUKCII. Sunday had been set aside by synod as "Good Literature Sunday," the object of which was to present the interest and profit of reading religious periodicals and books. In a brief introductory to the morning sermon the pastor spoke upon the subject. The Hev. Mr. Nichols was present with the Sunday-school and fpoke a word of encouragement, and urged the importance of the Home-class department. This work will be immediately undertaken. The Junior C. E. S. is steadily gaining in interest and promises very soon to become an indispensible part of the work. The Senior society considered the subject of Thanksgiving. Miss Vinall was leader. The attendance upon the evening service was encouraging. PKESBYTK1UAN CHUKCII. Sunday was one of the most enjoyable and profitable days the church has known during the present pastorate. The congregations were large and a thoughtful interest was manifest in them that was good to see. The sermons seemingly could not have been belter or moie timely. They left, an impres sion that is certain to result in much fruit. Hev. Mr. Shirey is an earnest practical gospel preacher, and brings to his hearers in i most forceful and con vincing way just the things for which they are hungering and thirsting. No one can hear him and not be benefitted. UNITED UK ET 1 1 KEN. There was a good attendance at all of the meetings. There was a slight increase in the Sunday-school, and tha Junior Y. P. C. U. in charge of the Misses Estella Wihdbigler and Viola McGowen added to its roll a number of new names. The morning theme was "The Holy tlhoBt." There was considered Ilia nature, His ollices, and the danger of committing the unpardonable sin against Him, and also of grieving Him, which is so often done by both saint and sinner. The theme at night was ' Abraham's obedience," or "The trial of Abraham's faith." The offering up of Isaac as recorded in Gen., 22d chapter, was in many respects a mysterious transaction and must be interpreted in the light of that later transaction, presumably on the same mount, when God offered up His only begotten son. The new song books were a source of inspiration in all the services. Hevival meetings will continue through the week being held each night at 7:30. M. E. CHUKCII. The Methodist church people enjoyed a mest excellent day Sunday. Inspiring congregations greeted the pastor both morning and evening services. The text for the morning sermon was from Titus 2: 12, "Teaching us to live soberly." To live soberly means to live thoughtfully and seriously. If the great pleasure-loving world would look upon life seriously, our saloons and gambling dens, and sporting rings and club houses would be closed. These are all forma of intoxication. Society is intoxicated, not so much by rum as by a desire to haye a good time Sobriety in the business world would change the order on the board of trade tomorrow. Witness Hutchinson and Leiter as samples of intoxication in trade. Jay Gould was intoxicated for a quarter of a century with the ambition to be the railroad king of the world. The industrial world is staggering under the stroke of intoxication. Men who wring their profits out of the sweat of labor are heartlessly drunken. Merchants who overcharge or underpay are intoxicated by the spoil of gain Better be drunk with wine thau avarice. Sobriety in the political world will send men to the polls with a proper appreciciation and responsibility of sullerage and elect men to oflice for service and not for spoil. Sobriety in church means the Golden Hule in every thing, and the Kingdom of God never to take a secondary place. The pastor preached an earnest, practical sermon in the evening from Eph. C: 15, "And having your feet shod with a preparation of the gospel of peace. The Sunday-school and Epworth League were largely attended and greatly enjoyed by all. Name of Novelty Changer.

M. LAUER a la;;aki. A DroiM' in the 1 1 1 - Mity Cause Serious Trouble. ODe lazy man in the factory or on the farm may hamper the entire force of workmen. A few minutes lost each day by only one man may cause serious inroads on the profits. The man who desires to sleep at his post of duty must be dismissed or change his habits. At some time during the lite of everyone the liver becomes inactive and torpid. It's a drone in the hive of the human organs, and refuses to do its share of the work. Then the whole system soon becomes run down and serious loss Is the result. It is not a loss of money, but a loss of health, which is far more valuable than tons of gold. When the liver become torpid, the blood impure, and the stomach refuses to do its work, the case needs attention, and it is ample time to take steps to compel the liver to do its share of the work 88 intended by nature. There must be no drones in the great hive of nature. Every organ in the body was placed there by an all-wise Creator and given some work to do. If any of them becomes diseased and unable to accomplish the task assigned them, the wrong should be speedily righted. Impurities of the blood quickly affect the stomach and serious results follow. The trouble may show in dyspepsia, catarrh, constipation, scrofula, nervous prostration, or eruptions of the 6kin. The system needs a remedy that will go directly to the seat of the disease, make the torpid liver active, the blood pure, and build up the patient generally. Knox Stomach Tablets are a new com- i bination of the best remedies known to medical science to accomplish this end. They have been thoroughly tried and tested. A single box will be worth more than gold to the sufferer. Knox Stomach Tablets are sold at fifty cents per box of lifty, by drugRists. If unable to secure them, send fifty cents and the address of the druggist, who does not sell them, to the Knox Chemical Co., Hattle Creek, Mich., and a full-sized box will be mailed postpaid. Armer, Attention! Remember O. K. Porter wants your butter, eggs, potatoes and everything that the farmer has to cell in the shape of produce. Come and see him before selling elsewhere.
