Mean and wicked men are those who admire women that wear dresses, ent rainy-day style at both ends. Mrs. Nation, although married twice, has no children. As she can’t rock the cradle, she rocks the joints. “To Hell for Three Cents” is the heading in a church paper, but it is doubtfal if a cm rate will increase travel in that direction. Suggestion for a Carrie Nation medal: Amazon rampant, bartender couchant, crossed hatchets, with a background of broken bottles: Motto “Ich Swat.” Those able editors who have been telling Edward VH how be ought to run his kingdom should send marked copies to his Majesty. Otherwise a good deal of choice counsel is likely to be lost. “Nurse tied to a bed with a sleeping child,” Says an exchange in its recent heading of an article. Which appears to us to be one of the first instances on record of an infant being made to do duty as a rope. Ella Wheeler Wilcox says that “woman is advancing.” That is just what keeps the Kansas saloon keeper in a cold perspiration, and causes him to barricade his front door when he hears the rustling of a skirt. A boy’s worst friend is his mother, when she indulges him in idleness and . is blind to his vices. The best friend a boy can have is a dad who will escort him out to the wood shed, and, with a strap, convince him of the errors of his way, and indelibly impress upon his anatomy that the way of the transgressor is hard. The man who thinks a newspaper should regulate the individual conduct of everybody in the community is a pumpkin bead whose brain would not keep twenty-four hours in a warm climate. And the fellows who are always finding fault with the news papers for doing this or that are the last people on earth to defend a newspaper when it does do the right thing. On a chicken ranch, not far away, a few days ago an incubator went wrong. In order to repair it, the eggs had to be removed from the machine, and to save them from getting chilled while the repairs were being made, the woman of the house put the eggs in bed and got in with them to keep warm. The repairing went slowly, and the lady remained in the bed for the space of twenty-four hours. Now the question to be settled is: Who will be the mother of the chicks—the hen that layed the eggs, the incubator or the woman? And can these chicks lay claim to having a mother, a stepmother and a grandmother? Are You COuatipatear Do you have that tired feeling? Are you Billious or out of sorts generally? Do you have Sick Headache? Pimples? Sores? Liver troubles? or other results of constipation? To be healthy, the sewer of the bowels must be kept in active, healthy condition, and nothing does it so well as Bailey’s Laxative Tablets. They cure Constipation, bring clear, . rosy complexion and make you feel energetic. lOC packages contain 20 tablets and 25 ct. pack. 60. Chocolate coated. A tablet or two > at night makes you feel fine in the morning. Sample free. Made by Lakeside Medicine Co., Chicago. Sold by A. F.Long. Great Bargains In Wall Paper. We have the beet line of wall paper ever shown in the city, and are selling it at the lowest prices ever offered Call and see us before buying. Rensselaer Decorating Co. Patronize Home Industry. The Rensselaer Steam Laundry meets Lafiayette, Indianapolis and other larger cities in competition in the surrounding country and gets the business at the same terms they offer. The above speaks for itself. When you have a good home laundry lay ASIDE YOUR LITTLK HAMMER. Don’t KNOCK AGAINST YOUR Home INSTITUTIONS and IHDUHTBIES. That does not make a city or even help to. BE GOOD. Bend your linen to a good laundry and you will be happy. Ri, lg up telephone M and have our wagon call, or leave order at G. W.
