And I y OU won/V / der, too, how i / \\ ty/ we manage to j sell them for so very little. Ellis & Murray. ~ THE PEOPLE’S PILOT.

A. W. Conner, of Irvington, lectured here last Tuesday evening, to a small audience. We must say for those who was not there that they missed a rare treat. It was first-class and those present enjoyed themselves for a fact. Mr. Conner is a man that will leave an impression, with any audience. We would be glad to have him with us again.

A. McCOY & CO. are now prepared to make farm loans at 6| to 7 per cent, depending on the amount desired, with commissions as low as are quoted elsewhere. The usual privilege of partial payments allowed. They would be glad to hear from parties desiring loans. Will cheerfully answer all inquiries. 42-4 t

The Republicans of Rensselaer nominated the following ticket on last Monday evening: M. B. Alter, coucilman Ist ward; C. W. Coen, councilman, 2nd ward; J. M. Wasson, councilman 4th ward; Chas. Starr, town treasurer; Thos. McGowen, town marshal; Chas. Blue, town clerk. John Healy has opened a shoe shop in Uncle Charley Rhoades’ harness shop, and is now prepared to do all kinds of custom work. His terms are cash to all. If you need repairing done in fir.-.t class style, give him a call and he will give you satisfaction.

The Republicans of this township held a primary at the court house last Saturday, for the purpose of electing delegates to the congressional convention at Hammond next month. The vote stood as follows: Johnson, 118; Landis, 110. Uncle John Waymire, who was taken suddenly ill, last week, of which we mentioned, is now slowly on the mend. It has developed that he had a stroke of paralysis. We have been having winter weather of all kinds during the past week. There was no need of anyone growling about it, for they were surely suited. We are prepared to sell you millinery cheaper than any one else. Call and see before buying elsewhere. M. &A. Meyer. The bad weather during the past few days has been bad on business. The town has almost been deserted. John Reynolds came down from Roby last Sunday and spent the day with his family.

BUTTERFLY BRAND FLOUR, only $4 per barrel at Laßue Bros.’ Cheapest ever known. They’re selling the groceries. ■*’ . **•

BUCKLIN’S ARNICA SALVE.

The best salve in the world for cuts, bruises, sores, ulcers, salt rheum, fever sores, tetter, chapped hanps, chilblains, corns and ail skin eruptions, and positively cures piles, or no pay required. It is guaranteed to give perfect satisfaction, or money refunded. Price 25 cents per box. For sale by F. B. Meyer.

Our better halves say they could not keep house without Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy'. It is used in more than half the homes in Leeds. Sims Bros., Leeds, lowa. This shows the esteem in which that remedy is held where it has been sold for years and is well known. Mothers have learned that there is nothing so good for colds, croup and whooping cough, that it cures these ailments quickly and permanently, and that it is pleasant and safe for children to take. 25 and 50 cent bottles for sale by F. B. Meyer Druggist.

We doubt if there is a town in the state that has as much musical talent as Rensselaer. Including the college, we have three brass bands, two orchestras, two mandolin clubs, and almost every church has a good choir. Our vocal talent is far above the average and we are certain that we can furnish as good a musical entertainment as the next one. We have music teachers on almost every instrument.

It will be an agreeable suprise to persons subject to attacks of bilious colic to learn that prompt relief may be had by taking Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. In many instances the attack may be prevented by taking this remedy as soon as the first symptoms of the disease appear. 25 and 50 cent bottles for sale by F. B. Meyer Druggist. B. F. FERGUSON is now prepared to make farm loans at 6| per cent. Interest per annum, commission as low as any one else. He does his own abstracting and can save you money there. Be sure and call. We can make your loans quickly. We make it a specialty.

Some thing wrong when you tire too easily. Some thing wrong when the skin is not clear and smooth. Some thing wrong when the Blood is impure. Everything right when you take DeWitt’s Sarsaparilla. It Recommends itself. A. F. Long & Co., Druggists.

We are in receipt of Bulletin No 50, relating t© field experiments with -corn and oats, from Purdue University. To our farmer friends in these are valuable instruction and can be had by writing to that place and they will be sent to you free of charge.

In the letter from S. E. Sparling of the issue March 9th, we desire to correct the mistake in which the title of Luther’s great song of the Reformative—“Unser Gott” appeared as “MuserGott.” We make this correction for the benefit of our German readers.

It cures blood and skin disorders. It does this quickly and permanently. Is there any good reason why you should not use DeWitt’s Sarsaparilla? It recommends itself. A. F. Long & Co., Druggists. Wrank Lyons has severed his connection with the Redkey Times, of which Leslie Clark is proprietor. Mr. Lyons will still remain in Redkey and will engage in some other business.

Rev. Kent, the evangelist, who has been holding a series of meetings, here for the past two weeks, is now at the Vaughn church near Surrey.

RENSSELAER. IND., FRIDAY, ARPIL 13, 1894.

Those who never read the advertisements in their newspapers miss more than they presume. Jonathan Kenison, of Bolan, Worth, Co., lowa, who had been troubled with rheumatism in his back, arms and shoulders read an item in his paper about how prominent German citizen of Ft. Madison had been cured. He procured the same medicine, and to use his own words: “It cured me right up.” He also says: “A neighbor and his wife were both sick in bed with rheumatism. Their boy was over to my house and said they were so bad he had to do the cooking. I told him of Chamberlain’s Pain Balm and how it cured me, he got a bottle and it cured them up in a week. 50 cent bottles for sale by F. B. Meyer, druggist. The new shops of the Monon to be built at Lafayette, it is stated, will be very complete and provided with new and mod ern machinery. The company will not only be able to repair its locomotives at these shops but to build engines and cars. Most of the car repairing will be done at New Albany, however, as the company will not abandon those shops.

“I see,” said the republican orator as he arose to address a political meeting, “a number of populists present. Now, I would like to know what you were before you joined the populists?” A lank old farmer in the back seat rose and said: •We were damned fools.” The speaker fainted and fell back in it. —Citizen, Elk County, Kas. A gentleman, who fully understands the situation, says had A. W. Conner lectured in Remington he would have been greeted by a crowded house. He says that Rensselaer is far behind Remington on such cultured entertainments as these.

What makes a house a home? The mother well, the children rosy, the father in good health and good humor. All brought about by the use of DeWitt’s Sarsaparilla. It recommends itself. A. F. Long & Co., Druggists. B. F. Ferguson is agent for the Cunard Mail Line of Steamers. This is the oldest and most reliable route between New York, Liverpool and all principal points east. 41-3 t Through an “ad” an Idaho man got a wife in Pennsylvania who is only twenty-six years old, and weighs 338 pounds. Advertising pays.

A. Leopold has moved his Remington stock of goods to Wolcott, and the store there will have a grand opening on tomorrow. The Louisville, New Albany & Chicago earned in March $226,808, a decrease as confpared with March, 1893, of $50,794. J. W. Clear will preach at the Sorghum Valley church, on Sunday, April 15, at 10 a. m. All are cordially invited.

Should it become necessary to replant the oats that have been sown, we doubt if there are enough seed in this county to supply the demand. In some places the crop was badly injured, which in others it will probably be all right. Pure blood means good health. Re-inforce it with DeWitt’s Sarsaparilla. It purifies the blood, cures Eruptions, Eczema, Scrofula and all diseases arising from impure blood. It recommends itself. A. F. Long & Co., Druggists. Gus Phillips has joined the Scott Raymond Comedy Co., and they are filling dates in Illinois. Gus is leading man and it is said that the company is an exceptionally good one. The teachers of the Rensselaer schools attended the association meeting at Frankfort last week. Prof. Bohannon was elected president for the ensuing year.

The Rensselaer Pilot this week contains an excellent write-up of the business interests of that growing prosperous town.—Goodland Herald. For Sale.—7 good cows, 3 have calves by their side, and the other 4 will have calves in 2 weeks. Call or address Fred Kroeger, Kniman, Ind. D. B. Nowels’school at Wheatfield closed last week and he is with us again. He is now a member of the firm of the Nowels Milling Co. Creates health, creates strength, creates vigor; DeWitt’s Sarsaparilla. It recommends itself. A. F. Long & Co., Druggists. The Hemphill & Honan room has been receiving a new coat of wall paper, which helps the appearances of it.

We will publish another interesting letter from Sam Sparling next week. '

If dull, spiritless and stupid; If your blood is thick and slug gish; If your appetite is capricious and uncertain. You need a Sarsaparilla. For best results take DeWitt's. It recommends itself. A. F. Long & Co., Druggists. Remember when in need of hard lumber for ariy purpose, sawed from white oak, burr oak, or hickory, do not fail to call op D. H. Yeoman & Son. They will fill your order on short Notice. Work guaranteed.

We would invite our readers to peruse the speech of Senator Teller, of Colorado, and we are sure that you will gain much information from it. It appears on the fifth page of this paper. If the proper light was turned on, we think Rensselaer could show some pretty rotten scandal cases. We doubt if the Breck-enrikge-Pollard case would be a circumstance.

Let us remind you that now is the time to take DeWitt’s Sarsaparilla, it will do you good. It recommends itself. A. F. Long & Co., Druggists. J. W. Swan, of Wadena, will soon begin a series of public speakings throughout Jasper county. His dates will be published later on.

If you want to buy a McCormick Reaper or Mower or repairs for either. See Sa n Yeoman, at Nowel’s mill. Ferd B. White, the temperance lecturer, will be here tonight and will lecture at the Court House. The Monticello papers of last week contained fine views of the past, present and future of their court houses. Say, Farmers, G. M. Wilcox at Surrey, is selling galvanized two point hog wire at $2.50 per 100 pounds. Mrs. Sallie Wood and daughter, Miss Mollie, of Lee, visited with relatives and friends here this week.

Robt. H. Gibbon and Maggie I. Baker have been grant* I marriage license by the county clerk.

Rev. L. E. Conner will preach at the Church of God, next Sunday morning and evening. Bdrt Bartoo spent Sunday at Remington.

A reduced rate of one and one-third fare on all railroads has been secured for the Lease— Gougor meeting, at Rensselaer on April 19th. It’s all the same, a slight cold, congested lungs or severe cough. One Minute Cough Cure banishes them. A. F. Long & Co., Druggists. There is not much sickness in or around Rensselaer, at present. Asa rule, we have one of the healthiest towns in the state. B. F. Ferguson is agent for Gaar, Scott & Co.'s steam engines and threshers and solicits correspondence.

B. S. Fendig returned from Redkey the first of the week and reports things booming at that thriving town. The quiet condition of affairs around town during the past few days, makes news items very scarce. If you haven’t paid your taxes, you had better. Time expires with next Monday. Don’t forget that D. H. Yeoman & Son can supply your wants for hard lumber. Joe Reynolds and Aaron Wood, of this office, spent last Friday in MOROCCO. Leon Schaffner, of Stoutsberg, was here last Wednesday and gave this office a call.

As 4 pants man was in town this week taking orders. He did a good business. Advertised Letters: Mrs’ Martha Biggs, Mr. Louis Brown, Miss Minnie Bard. Old newspapers, nice and clean, at this office, for five cents per bundle. It won’t, be long until we will begin to hear about those “sweet girl graduates.” Harry Wade has, gone to Morocco where he has opened a barber shop.

Wes Karsner, of Chicago, is here. He is employed on the Record. Mrs. Dr. Washburn visited with relatives in Monticello last week. B. F. Ferguson is still selling, buying and trading in real es- ■, $ tate. Joe Hammond’s school at Faw Oaks, closes to-day. A ' A. '
