GRIEVANCE OF FARMER
Railroad Crossing Made Impauabl by Graders. Farmers residing east of Plymouth and who customarily use the Jacoby crossing over the Pennsylvania railroad are complaining loudly of the manner, in which that crossing is obstructed by the grading operations now in progress there. The bed of the highway l as been cut down and scraped away, a rough, temporary sidetrack has been laid across it on the surface and without ballast, and worktrains are permitted to stand there for indefinite periods. The attention of public officials has been called to the situation, but so far without effect, and the farmers are threatening to invoke the law un less the trouble is remedied very shortlv. The railroad people say that the improvements under way will necessarilv cause some inconvenience but the work at such points will be hast ened forward and crossings will be left in better and safer condition than before. The grade at the Jacoby crassinsr is being cut down verv ma terially and it will be impossible to prevent some interference while this is done.

A MEMORABLE AND SUMPTUOUS EXPOSITION
THE GRAND BIBLICAL SPECTACLE Solomon, His Temple, and the Quten o! Sheba. The Enquirer, The Commercial Tri bune and other leading papers, both German and English, of Cincinnati, are prolific in their praises of this new and most impressive of all spectacles, which at an expense that would seem fabulous, the enterprising manager of John Robinson's 10 Big Shows Combined produce this year in connection with their myriad other attractions. There is no scene so vivid, so lasting and so conclusive as the sense of seeing, and however studiously we may search the Scriptures or other sacred history, the ideas that we may form and the impressions we may receive concerning the patriarchs and sages,and the scenes and incidents and events consequent to their time, can be but fractionary and imperfect. To have reproduced those personages and events and have placed sccneographic effect before you; to hear Solomon re-utter his wise and prophetic words; to sec in person Sheba's illustrious Queen; and the pomp and circumstance of her surroundings; to view the great Temple of Solomon, not by description, but by actual in spection; to witness personally the sumptuous and resplendent festivals of the great Solomon's court these are the inestimable privileges which the John Robinson 10 Big Combined SIiqws occords its patrons in connection with the great circus, the menag erie, and the royal Roman hippodrome. The spectacle of Solomon, His Temple and the Queen of Sheba, will be exhibited at Plymouth Monday July 29. ADVISORY BOARDS Interpretation of Apparently Conflicting Laws About Meetings. The trustees and advisory boards of the various townships have been at sea for some time in relation to the meetings which the boards are called upon to hold in accordance with the statutes, sinc2 the act of 1899 pro vides one date of meeting for the an nual session and the act of 1901 seems to conflict in that it provides a differ ent date without repealing the section stipulating the time in the old law. The new law stipulates 4 hat the an nual meeting shall be held on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in Jan uary of each year, but does not change that portion of the law of 1899 with reference to the fixing of the tax levies on the first Tuesday in September. There was a question as to whether it would be nccessarv to make two settlements and also two publications of the township business, one in September and another in January, but the law is interpreted to mean, according to the attorney general, that the township advisory boards must meet in regular session on the first Tuesday in September for the purpose of fixing the levies for the year, and that previous to that time the trustees must give notice by publication in two newspapers of general circulation of opposite political parties of the expeditures and tax levies of the year. In accordance with the new law the townshiy advisory boarns must also meet in annual session on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in January for the annual settlement with the trustees, at which time the trustees must make publication of their reports as provided for by law. DAIRY INSTITUTE Plymouth Chosen to Entertain a Notable Convention. Inasmuch as the state appropriation for farmers' institutes this vear has not been exhausted, - Professor Latta, superintendent of the Purdue agricultural experiment- station, has suggested that the balance of the fund may well be used for four or live district dairv institutes in different portions of the state. Through the efforts of Schlosser Bros., and the Business Men's association one of these institutes will be held in Plymouth, probably between the 10th and loth of August, the exact date to b announced later. The program, soon to be made pub lic, will contain the names of some of the best posted dairy men in the state and the 'occasion will be interesting and profitable. The attendance will come from the entire north part of the state and the city is honored in being chosen for the purpose. The Episcopal Picnic.

OU never cut off
cake of soap and throw it away! Yet you pay twice the price of Ivory Soap for a cake of "tinted" toilet soap less than half as
large. Your little cake of toilet soap costs you four times the price of Ivory, for it lasts only half as long and costs twice as much. No money can buy purer or better soap than Ivory. If it came in dainty paper, all scented and colored, you would pay fifteen cents for a very small cake of it.
