Isaac Glazebrook run a sharp pointed wire through his foot a few days since and has suffered a deal of inconvenience from it since. Lots in the Leopold addition in pro moxity to the court house are very much fought for atjpresent by local real estate buyers.

HAPPENINGS ©F A WEEK.
Pass the good word along the line. Piles can be qnickly cured without an operation by simply applying DeWitt’s Witch Hazel Salve. A. F. Long Corn shucking will begin in September this year. The recent storms have materially damaged the crop for in many fields the stalks have been broken down by the wind. Luther Strong, Walter Porter, Jay Williams, S. Makeever and Mrs. Stockton have just had new cement walks finished in front of their residences on Main and Division streets. John Jesson is still struggling with the elements and quick sand in pushing his work on the court house sewer. He certainly has no large net profit awaiting the conclusion of his contract. Married—Sep. 2, 1896, by Rev. R. D. Utter, of the M. E. Church, Miss Elizabeth A. Hilton, of Rensselaer, and Mr. Charles G. Harrington, of DeMotte, Ind. The ceremony was celebrated at the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. David Hilton, in the presence of a few intimate friends. J. D. Babcock, trustee of Marion township, is reported to have told some free silver men a few days since, that no honest laborer would vote for Bryan. It is to be regretted that any man wteuld. so forget his American citizenship as to so brutally stigmatize those of his fellowmen who happen to differ with him. Mr. Babcock will hardly repeat the statement to the same parties.
The local money brokers have received instructions from their eastern principals that no further farm loans Will be made until the financial policy of the government is settled. Hollingworth and Hopkins, who have been extensively engaged in this line are among those who have been obliged to reject numerous applications of late on this account. It is to be regretted that the citizens of our county should be made to suffer inconvenience of this kind because of agitation of the silver question. John Reynolds arrived home Monday from Milwaukee where he has been having a very successful season with his newrunning horse, Lou Hopper. He won second money in a race last Saturday, upon which race a fortunate backer won so handsomely that he made Mr. Reynolds a present of a 8200 gold watch. He left for Lexington Tuesday to purchase other horses. It is reported Lou Hopper has started six times, winning one first, three seconds and two thirds. So far it has been a very profitable season for Mr. Reynolds and he has high hopes of still other victories this fall.
“Wake up little Jacob, day is breaking!’’ so said DeWitt’s Little Early Risers to the man who had taken them to arouse his sluggish liver. A. F. Long.

The Discovery Saved His Life.
Mr. G. Caillouette, Druggist, Beaversville, 111., says: “To Dr. King’s New Discovery I owe my life. Was taken with La Grippe and tried all the physicians for miles about, but of no avail and was given up and told I could not live. Having Dr. King’s New Discovery in my store I sent for a bottle and began its use and from the first dose began to get better and after using three bottles was up and about again. It is worth its weight in gold. We won’t keep store or house without it.” Get a free trial at F. B. Meyer’s Drug Store. • Eli Hill Lumber City, Pa., writes,“l have been suffering from Piles for twenty five years and thought myself incur able. DeWitt’s Witch Hazel Salve was recommended to me as a pile cure, so I bought a box and it performed a permanent cure.” This is only one of thousands of similar cases. Eczema, sores and skin diseases yield quickly when it is used. A. F. Long.

McClure's for September.
McClure’s Magazine, with a stirring barrack-room ballad by Kipling, a thrilling installment of Anthony Hope’s “Phroso”, a dramatic sea story by an actual sailor, and characteristic stories by Mrs. Spofford and Clinton Ross, maintains, in the September number, its usual enticing aspect. In scanning a table of contents of McClure’s, one never experiences, it must be allowed, the familiar difficulty of finding something one really cares to read. More interesting even than the fiction, in this number, are some of the graver articles. Mr. Low’s recollections of his art-student days in Paris and of the not able painters whom he came to knowmore or less intimately there; Mrs. Morton’s intimate account of the heroic labors of her husband, Dr. W. T. G. Morton, in overcoming incredible prejudice and obstruction and getting his humane discovery of anaesthesia perfected and introduced, and so giving painless surgery to the world; the vivacious, yet sympa thetic account of the painter Whistler (that most picturesque of men) and his eccentric ways and witty speeches; and Elizabeth Stewart Phelps's account of her life down among the Gloucester fishermen, —all of these are the very best of good reading in their several ways. All are fully illustrated with portraits and other pictures. Considering abiding value as well as immediate interest, the feature of the number is Lincoln’s ‘‘Lost Speech”— raised to the fullness of life as it were from the very dead. It is truly a great speech, as persons who heard it have always so ardently testified. Delivered at Bloomington in 1856, it practically created the Republican party in Illinois. But the reporters were so absorbed in listening that they forgot to report, and the speech was supposed until now to be irrevocably lost. Mr. JosephMedill, editor of the Chicago “Tribune”, who heard the speech, introduces it with an interesting description of the occasion.

Beautiful eyes grow dull and dim As the swift years steal away. Beautiful, willowy forms so slim Lose fairness with every day. But she still is queen and hath charms to spare Who wears youth’s coronal beautiful hair. 4 Preserve Your Hair and you preserve yotfr youth. “A woman is as old as she looks," says the world. No woman looks as old as she is if her hair has preserved its normal beauty. You can keep hair from falling out, restoring its normal color, or restore the normal color to gray or faded hair, by the use of Ayer’s Hair Vigor.
Summer Resorts on the Monon.
The summer resorts on the Monon Route are more than usually popular this year, West Baden and French Lick Springs, in Orange Co., are overflowing with visitors, and the hotels have all they can do. Paoli, the county seat, has opened a rival sanatorium, which is well patronized. The waters of the various springs differ materially in their constituents, and are successprescribed for a great variety of maladies. The woods in the neighborhood abound in game and all the streams teem with fish—some of them having been stocked by the government fish commission. All indications point to West Baden (and the neighborhood springs) as the great sanatorium and popular summer resort of the west. Cedar Lake, forty miles from Chicago, is a favorite picnic and outing spot where the Monon has a fine wooded park of nearly 400 acres. The fishing is first rate.
