THE NAPPANEE NEWS NAipPANEK, EIKHABT COUNTY, IND. /- >' T ■ " —t " *C .-f . ..... ISiiterednt the PosDoflice (*t Alappanee Jnd., as second-class matter. . A Paper For < lkt People. TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION: / One copy, one year , $ 1 50 One copy, six months ...‘ 73 One copy, three months ; 40 Whkx-Nappanee was first incorporated, some twenty years ago, It took on a few needless frills that it after- ■ ward discarded. We recall now that the town had a “stovepipe inspector.” Are people anxious to return to those days? Or won-’t they lie down unless a building inspector and a brlClt inspector come to town? The first issue of the Semu Weekly News (so named for mere convenience) was simply a duplicate of the first daily edition. This will not be the case hereafter, as the news matter for the regular weekly edition and its second edition will be made up from home and county news appearing from day to day in the daily issue during the three weeks it is published. The weekly edition of the News is retained for the reason that most legal advertising must be published in a weekly paper. It is sail} that the authorities of the Ohio state asylum for insane are using /the picture of Christ as an assistant cure for insane patients, with considerable effect. Some people might think this sacreiigious. But after all there are people outside of asylums who need the same object lesson to get their minds centered on the Personality of Christ and what He taught while on earth as a saving power. That peace which passeth understanding was newer withheld from the poor, the lame v , and the blind—even the insane came-in for a share of its blessings. The morally insane who infest the big cities might be gi ven the same object lesson with profit to themselves. FROM THE ANTILLES, Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy Bene- - fits a City.

Shipping corn into Nappanee is something that has not been necessary for many years, but oh account of the ; shortage and the poor quality of the corn crop in this part of the country many farmers and firms find that they will not have enough to carry them over for feeding purposes, and are shipping a great deal of it in. Geo. Freese’s Sons received a car load from Illinois yesterday, they have over two-hundred head of hogs to feed besides their horses, and sometimes ”lols"ot poultry, and they use a great amount of. corn.
