Arrow Shots.

J shot an arrow into the air. It fell to the earth; I know not where. —Longfellow. Some fellows when they get drunk are so good natured about it that they offend no one. As long as a girl tells how old she will be on her “‘next” birthday, she is not very old. We do not see why anyone should want to get drunk in hot weather. Even a widower will take two or three of her relatives out buggy riding when he begins to get sweetLots of girls like to hold the lines when their beaus *-ake them out buggy riding. What would they do if there were automobiles? Did you ever notice how badly you want lemonade when there isn’t a lemon in the house? We notice that quite often the ugliest horse wins the race. - Whenever we see a girl exquisitely dressed in white, we wonder who ironed her dress. If a widower marries too soon, folks say he might have shown some respect for his first wife. If he doesn’t marry at all, they say, “Aha, he got enough of it the first time. When nobody but women call a man “sriritual” we would rather know more about him. Hot weather gets away with the fool fashions. Many a man wearing his coat buttoned may not do it to keep warm. He may not have on a vest. All kinds of music sounds bad on a real hot night. Nothing makes a man feel cheaper than to take out his handkerchief to wipe off the perspiration and to discover that he’s got his wife’s little bit of a lace trimmed handkerchief. A man who carries a fiddle around on a real hot day, loses the respect of the community pretty quick. It is a source of pride to some folks to have known people who knew how to get rich. How do you like to have a man ask you about your stoves when the thermometer registers 100 in the shade?

“I had headache and pain in the side.” If you will read the letter of Mrs. McKenzie, given below, you will find that she* says— ”l had uterine disease, also headache and pain in the side.” Uterine disease is a common cause of headache, backache, sideache, nervousness and other womanly ills.

My Hair “I had a very severe sickness that took off all my hair. I purchased' a bottle of Ayer’s H®j r Vigor and it nair back again.” w. D. Quinn, Marseilles, JJI. One thing is certain, — Ayer’s Hair Vigor makes the hair grow. This is because it is a hair food. It feeds the hair and the hair grows, that’s all there is to it. It stops falling of the hair, too, and always restores color to gray hair. tI.M a bottle. All dnirrlete. If your druggist cannot supply you, send us one dollar and wo will express I you a bottle.

When men get old, they know of a good many men the same age. The hottest morning last week we saw a man hauling stove wood. It may seem queer, but an ice house is the hottest place in town. This kind of weather everybody wishes he ran an ice cream parlor or a saloon. Well, there is some satisfaction in having the best. This|s the greatest drouth ever known in this country. A man who sells a burglar ajarm may still need watching. It is always more sensible for people to be economical. Old folks sparking always looks very funny.

Entertaining Fiction.

One advantage of reading a serial story in a daily newspaper is that an installment of convenient length is received every day that does not consume an undue amount of the reader’s time. An installment of a high-grade serial story appears in every issue of The Chicago Record-Herald—a popular feature of that enterprising Chicago daily. Every issue contains also a short illustrated humorous story on the editorial page. Readers of the Chicago Record-Herai d can depend upon a never-failing source of pleasant entertainmens in the noteworthy fiction that is always_to t e found in its columns. ,

Surprised the Minister.

As Rev. Ed Meads was spending a few days out of town, it was thought a good time to plan a series of surprises for him; consequently on last Saturday evening, at the home of Jasper Kenton, over one hundred members and friends of the Parr, Vaughn and Rensselaer Free Baptist churches met, as he was driven from the train to the house and found the throng, and it gradually dawned upon him that the gathering was in honor of himself, he was surprised. Later, as Rev. Ferguson told him to stand forth, and with some very appropriate and touching remarks presented him with a twenty dollar gold piece, a five dollar gold piece and three silver dollars, as a token of esteem by his different congregations and outside friends, his surprise and appreciation couid only be expressed by tears.

The evening was a most delightful cjne. A fine programme was rendered and refreshments served. Al) were glad to be there. »» The arrest of Graham, the optician? in Rensselaer not. long ago, will, it is hoped, have a tendency to check the tom foolery indulged in by certain traveling pectacle peddlers, who advertise to eradicate everything with their glasses, from hair in the nose to a cork screw pain in the cora-bellum. Better deal with your home optician. —Morocco Courier.

THE IVORY QUEEN.

By HOBMAN HURST,

[Copyright. 1899, by American Press Association.] [CONT’NUED.J Darrent. much to the amazement of Dobson, turned on his electric lamp and made for an old writing desk ip the corner. There was no need for force. Every drawer had been feft open, and a pile of burped paper in the grate showed that Mr. Silas Gosnell had had a good clear out and had destroyed everything be did not require before he shook the dust of Norcombe from his feet. A sheet or two of plain note paper lay in one of the drawers, a sheet or two with the watermark of a five star diamond, and Darrent placed them carefully in his pocketbook. “I think this is for “you, sir,” Dobson exclaimed, handing Darrent a note he had picked up from the table, and Darrent as he read the superscriptipn felt a horrible desire to kick some one, or, for the matter of that, even himself, failing a bette target. “To the smart ( ?) detective in charge

“I think this is for you, sir," Dobson exclaimed, handing Darrent a note. of the Norcombe murder case. " With a 'cuise he tore open the envelope and p <ed the contents, written in the same sprawling hand as his note of the afternoon: Co the American Lecoq: Really, sir, I fancy you’re hid a nice long sleep. Wake up and own yourself a fool. 1, Silas Gosnell, killed—not murdered, but killed— Josiah Marsden. He had been kind enough to pay me an annuity, and I went, as usual, to collect my allowance on the night of the murder. The old man was madder than efrer, talked about blackmail and all that sort of thing, worked himself up into*, the fury of a maniac and suddenly went bang for me with the poker. I reeled back, and my hand touched a knife. I wish it hadn’t, but it did. It was his life or mine. I preferred his. As to that paper, you’ve all been tricked. I wrote it—wrote it because that soft brained ass of a policeman, that old fool Dobson, smelled a rat. I thought the best thing was* to give hint a chance of bleeding Astray Marsden to keep him quiet. The idiot gave the whole show away. I thought when I wrote it if anything went wrong Jt might be pleaded that the old man was going to write “a stranger,” but I did not think such a brilliant young detective as yourself would take up the case and effectually condemn an innocent man. Things are too hot me. I’m off. Goodby. I am, my dear Lecoq, ever indebted to you for your blind stupidity and so sign myself, always gratefully yours, Silas Gosnell. Darrent ground his teeth together in rage. He had been fooled from start to finish in this great case—he, Herbert Darrent, the famous detective, the American Lecoq. Bah! Completely fooled by an Englishman who despised him so heartily that he had even left him a mocking letter admitting everything on the eve of his flight I ’ “He’s in New York by this time, possibly on his way to England, but I’ll have him yet if the thing is possible!” Darrent cried, striking his knee in his vexation. Hurrying to the nearest telegraph office, Darrent sent a careful description of Silas Gosnell to the chief of police of New York and then started for New York himself, firmly resolved to follow Gosnell to the ends of the earth if necessary. Up to this point in the case he had been anything but a bloodhound of the law, although various people had referred to him as such, but now the appellation described him perfectly. Disappointment, chagrin, wounded vanity, bad given him a feverish interest in the chase of the Norcombe murderer that he had not felt before. At Buffalo he was notified by the chief cf detectives of New York that an Englishman exactly answering his telegraphed description had sailed a week before on the liner Strelesia. He learned nothing further upon his arrival in New York and was about to sail for England—was on the dock, in fact—when he heard a newsboy shouting? “Extra, extra! Terrible loss of life! Liner Strelesia sunk! Two hundred and fifty drowned I” “Total wreck of the Strelesia,” he read, in glowing headlines. “Fearful loss of life.” And then: “A boat was picked up in mid-Atlantic by the Majestic, having on board five of the crew of the missing steamship Strelesia, these being the only survivors of the ill fated vessel. ’ ’ Then followed some brief personal

narratives ana the list of passengers, among which was the name of Silas Gosnell The sea had avenged the murder of Josiah Marsden. Silas Gosnell had gone before a higher court, a greater Judge. It was useless to proceed further. Consequently Darrent returned to Chicago, where he found another note awaiting him, another of Gosnell’* mocking epistles: Dear M. Lecoq-Why don’t yo» have * look at Silas Gosnell’s house by the river I “Well, there’s one thing in favor of the poor wretch,” Darrent soliloquized as he placed it with the others in his pocketbook—“he didn’t intend to let in innocent man suffer for his crime.” Little remains to be told. Shortly after Darrent’s return to Chicago the governor of Illinois pardoned Astray Marsden, and Astray soon found himself the possessor of a snug fortune—the fortune that had been his uncle’s. Not long thereafter there was a happy wedding at Norcombe, and one of the guests was Herbert Darrent, the American Lecoq, who had not long before braided a hangman’s noose for the bridegroom. But all this was forgotten. “Let bygones be bygones,” said Astray Marsden as he heartily grasped the detective’s hand. “I am glad you are so forgiving,” was Mr. Darrent’s reply, “and, while this case has been a great disappointment to me professionally, I freely forgive you, Astray, for not being guilty of the murder of your uncle. We all make mistakes, and thus far this case is my very worst. In the future I ehall be more suspicious of circumstantial evidence. Here’s to the health of the happy pair I May long life and happiness be theirs I" THE END.

Wallace Circus Stars.

It is difficult to say in just what department the Great Wallace Shows excel, but when it visits Rensselaer on Tuesday, August 27, our citizens can judge for themselves. Those who are versed in the business and ought to know whereof they speak say that the riding as seen with the Wallace Show this year has never been equalled, much less excelled. The riding of Mike Rooney and Orrin Hollis is a revelation to the public. Their consummate skill and beautiful grace are always greatly admired. They do everything on a horse’s back that an ordinary acrobat can do on the stage. They never falter or lose their balance, but perform feat after feat in such an easy manner that their act is one of the most admired of the entire program. What Orrin Hollis and Mike Rooney cannot do on the back of a galloping horse never could be done. They- do all of the old-time tricks and then do feats of their own invention which have never been attempted by others. For Hollis and Rooney to turn a backward or forward somersault upon a horse is as easy as for an ordinary man to take a step. There is also a friendly rivalry existing between Hollis and Rooney; each one of them would rather lose a week’s salary than to make a mistake or a failure in any feat, since he knows the other one would chuckle over his misfortune. Tnis friendly rivalry between the two celebrated riders not only amuses the other preformers connected with the Great Wallace Shows, but it also results in better riding than can be seen with any other show. Mike Rooney and Orrin Hollis are second to none. These champion bareback riders will be seen with the Great WaLace Shows when they ex hibit for one day only in Rensselaer on Tuesday, August 27.

THE "INDIANA MONTE CARLO.”

Chicago Gamblers the Originators of the Ant nirnous Circular Sent Out Last Week. The anonomous appeal to the citizens of Indiana and the circulars ad vertising an alleged “Mon e Carlo” in Lake county, which were sent to all the newspapers of the stnte last week, was the work of rival Chicago gamblers, it is said, who hoped to break up cool selling at Long Beach, in that county. Besides betting on horse races, which is the sole business of the place, they advertised roulette and taro as an enticing adjunct. In the center an advertisement appeared inviting generous attendance and setting forth in bold letters that the place afforded protection both from county and state officials. The charts were printed by a Milwaukee lithographing flrm as the rival gamblers did not wish to expose their fraud by hav ing the work done in Chicago. The typewritten copies of the “fake” appeal were pri ited in a little printing office over 121 South Clark street, Chicago, the latter place being the headquarters for the rival faction of gamblers who were envious of the apparent success of the Long Beach concern. As a general thing newspapers are not easily trapped with anonomous communications, but many took the bait sent out by the Chicago gamblers and published their communication, as expected. The Lake county officials will probably do their duty in the matter, since their attention has been called to it. Mr. and Mrs. M. P. Warner attended the old settlers’ meeting at Delphi.
