“Our little girl was unconscious from strangulation during a sudden terrible attack of croup. I quickly secured a bottle of One Minute Cough Cure, giving her three doses. The croup was mastered and our lictle dar ling speedily recovered.” So writes A. L. Spafford, Chester, Mich. A. F. Long. Geo. W. Zimmerman, formerly of Barkley township, but now of Kiowa county, Kans., in writing to have his address changed, says: “Wheat is excellent; never saw a better prospect than everybody has around here. Corn looks good. A poor nfan can do ever so much better than back there. Land is cheap but has raised some since we came.” A man described as pale-faced, tall, slim and light has been working the widows of soldiers and sailors at and around these parts. He claims to be from a firm that is publishing a historical work and that the proceeds of the sale of that work are devoted to pushing a bill which all such widows will secure large pensions. He collects a dollar and that is all he is after. You will waste time if you try to cure indigestion or dyspepsia by starving yourself. That only makes it worse when you do eat heartily. You always need plenty of good food properly digested. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure is the result of years of scientific research for something that would digest not only some elements of food but every kind. And it is the one remedy that will do it. A. F. Long.

In case the new east and west road from Toledo to Keokuk is built Rensselaer will be an important point being about half way between the terminals. The building of the road would doubtless mean a good deal for the Jasper county town and the citizens of the place are doing their best to get the road and are willing to give the company a good-sized subsidy.—Delphi Herald. “I have been suffering from Dyspep sia for the past twenty years and have oeen unable after preparations and physicians to get any relief. After taking one bottle of Kodol Dyspepsia Cure I found relief and am now in better health than I have been for twenty years. I can not praise Kodol Dyspepsia Cure too highly.” Thus writes Mrs. C. W. Ro erts, North Creek, Ark. A. F. Long. An illustrated lecture was given at the College auditorium last evening by Rev. Geo. D. Heldman, of Chicago. The subject of his lecture was “A Trip Through the Yosemite Valley,” which is situated in Mariposa county, California, a national park since 1864. The trip extended from Chicago to San Francisco, and included views of the principal cities along the line, as well as the principal views of the park. Rev. D. Oonvers an Episcopal minister, of Delphi, will hold services in Jasper county as follows: May 26, being Whitsen day, a celebration of the Holy communion, at the home of Alford Peters at 7 a. m., near the Slaughter school house: Sunday school at the same place at 10 a. m.; evening prayer and sermon at the Slaughter school house at 2:30 Evening prayer and sermon at 7:30 p. m. at the Primitive Baptist church .in. Rensse’aer. If people only knew what we know about Kodol Dyspepsia Cure, it would be used in nearly every household, as there are few people who do not suffer from a feeling of fullness after eating, belching, flatulence, sour stomach or waterbrash, caused by indigestion or dyspepsia. A preparation such as Kodol Dyspepsia Cure, which, with no aid from the stomach, will digest your food, certainly can’t help but do you good. A. F. Long.

Arrow Shots.

I shot an arrow into the air, It fell to the earth; I know not where. —Longfellow. Probably nothing pleases a boy more than when his girl has a boy friend from another town visiting her, to go to the train with the visiter and see him off. If people are rich, that ought to be enough without being smart or good looking. A new house keeper can be told by the frequency with which she dusts her house. Nobody likes to hear folks say they do not care to go to a certain play because they have seen it played so much better in the city. A girl never comes home from visiting that she does not carry some slips of flowers along. Boys in a small town are considered “dressy” who are not even noticed in a bigger town. Frequently men will mention a debt they owe you just to keep you from asking for it, still they do not pay you.

PASS MAKES NO DIFFERENCE.

Railroad Company Liable For Damages Just the Same. A railroad company can not exempt itself from liability for the negligent injury of a passenger who is riding on a free pass by indorsing a release of all damages on the back of the pass and calling the passenger’s attention to it. The Appellate Court so held in reversing the case of John R. Payne vs. the Terre Haute & Indianapolis Railroad Company. Payne was injured by the carelessness of the railroad employes in permitting the two parts of a freight train on which he was a passenger to come in collision while trying to make a “flying switch.” The pass on which he was riding expressly provided that “By its acceptance and use any and all claims for injuries to person or for loss or damage to baggage that may accrue to the person or persons named on the face thereon are released.” The trial court held that this defeated his right to recover damages, but the Appellate Court, said that it is contrary to the public policy for a common carrier to contract against liability for its own negligence, and that its liability for injuries to persons riding free resulting from negligence is the same as its liability for injuries to those who pay full fare.

A News Service Without Parallel.

There is ample justification for the claim made by The Chicago RecordHerald that its readers enjoy every day in the week, Sundays included, a news service that is without parallel in range and completneess. The. reason is obvious—the combination of the varied and extensive facilities of the two great dailies, The Chicago Record and Times-Herald. In addition to the independent news facilities of both papers, The RecordHerald receives the complete news service of The New York Herald, The New York Tribune and The Associated Press; and when it is considered that its news columns are supplemented by all the special features so popular in The Chicago Record and The Chicago TimesHerald, it will be seen that The Record-Herald holds an unique place among the great newspapers of the United States.
