Farmer* have about finished sowing wheat. There has been a larger acreage sown in Jasper county this season than ever before.

The Fair.- At this writing (Wednesday afternoon) the prospects for a successful Fair, both as to large attendance and fine exhibitions, are decidedly bright. To-day (Thursday) some fine trotting and running races are promised, besides many other attractions. Hardman, the jeweler, announces to the public through our local columns this week that he is prepared to do every tiling in his line cheaper than the cheapest, and also that he has the finest stock of jewelry ever brought to Rensselaer. Joe is a first-class workman, and no mistake. Try him and be convinced.

Imes k Meyer have opened up for the fall trade with a fine stock of drugs and everything usually kept in a first-class drug store. 'They need no recommendation to our readers, as they are well known, and the.neatness of their store and polite attention to customers has become proverbial. Call on them during the fair. Themes for pulpit discourse at Presbyterian Church next Sabbath: Morning—“ The sovereignty of God does not annul the free agency of man, and the decrees of God are rules for the government of his own actions.” Evenings—“ Christian work enjoined for tile usefulness of believers, and as an evidence of their grncious state.

The greatest reduction in prices of clothing that we have ever known has just been made at Leopold’s, and his stock is new and fresh. We can’t give any reason why he makes this sacrifice, but, never-the-less, he has concluded to do so. In boots and shoes the reduction is the same, and in dry goods it beats all. Call soon and help yourself. We are asked about the school catalogues dearly every day. The catalogues were delivered to the secretary of the school board two weeks ago, and if they have not distributed them it is their fault, not ours. The fact of the matter is, the copy for the pamphlet was not furnished the printers until two weeks after it should have been in circulation.

Ren&selaer, Ind., Sept. U, ’Bl. Quite a number of the members and friends of the Presbyterian Church met in the Church for the purpose of advancing the interest in the service of song. On motion, Mr. John Coen was elected chairman, and E. H. Tharp secretary. After stating the object of the meeting a motion prevailed to proceed to elect a chorister and organist, which resulted in the election of E. H. Tharp chorister and Mrs. W. L. Hamar organist. * On motion of J. L. Funston, the secretary was instructed to publish the proceedings in the county papers.

Mr. Charles B. Wayman, Erie, Pa., writes: “My physicians had given me up to die. They told me my lungs and liver were all decayed and gone. I was very weak, pale and emaciated. By chance I saw Brown’s Iron Bitters advertised. I inftmediately realized that without iron in the blood life conld not exist With trembling nnxiety I sent a servant who procured for me a bottle. I must have taken it with great faith, for almost immediately I felt its beneficial effect. Soon all dyspeptic symptoms disappeared, my lungs grew stron?, pains in the region of the heart vanished, my urine became free of sediment, and in a word [ have regained j*erfect health. Now I feel able to thrash the doctor that attended me, and

The Cyclopaedia War] The month of July, 1881, witnesses the completion of the largest and most~ Important literary work this country and the century have seen. It is the Library of Universal 1 Knowledge, large type edition, in 15 large octavo volumes, containing It) per cent morn matter than Appleton’a, Cyclopedia, at less than one-fifth its cost, and 20 per cent mom than Johnson’s Cyclopedia, at a little more than one-fourth its cost. Chambers’s Encyclopaedia, which forms ’the basis of the Library of Universal KfiOwl* edge (the last London edition of 1880 being reprinted verbatim as a portion oi its con* tents), is the laborious prodoct I _ j, _ of the ripest British &nd£uro» pean scholarship. It has devel- jff I QTQ |V oped through a century ofC^-. clopaedia making; its various ” Jf editions having been many time* revised, in successive years, till it has come to be universally recognized, by those com* petent to judge, as standing at the very front of great aggregations of knowledge, and better adapted than any other Cyclopaedia for popular use. It contains such full and important information as the ordinary reader, or the careful student, is likely to seek, upon about 25,000 subjects in every department of human knowledge. Chamben't Encyclopaedia, however, is a foreign production, edited and published for a foreign market, and could not be ex- raw bum |_ * pected to give as much promt* nence to American topics as M M A American readers might desire. To supply these and ■ ■ ■1 • other deficiencies a large corps of American editors and writers have added important articles upon about is,ooo topics, covering the entire field of human knowledge, bringing the whole number of titles under one alphabetical arrangement to about 40,000. Thus the work is thoroughly Americanized, and the Library of Universal Knowledge becomes at once the latest and most completo Encyclopedia in the field, at a mere fraction of the cost of any similar work which hit preceded it. . • of the 15 volumes, complete, In extra cloth binding, [IC v Russia, sprinkled edges, §20.00. In half Russia, gilt top*. $22.50. In full library sheep, marbled edges, $25.00. The superlative value and importance of this great Encyclopedia lies e&pecidilly In the fact that it is brought within the reach of every one who aspires after knowledge and culture. It is really a libra- ra<a | - ■ ry of universal knowledge. It brings a liberal lIIT i M education easily within the reach even of. every “ V I alvl ■ - plowboy of the country and apprentice boy of the city. Every fanner and every mechanic in the land owes it to himself and to his children that such a Cyclopaedia shall henceforward form a” part of tho outfit of his home. To the professional man, and every person of intelligence in every walk of life, a Cyclopaedia is a necessity. Of course the old and wealthy publishers who have grown rich.(it Is said that tho Appletons have made a profit of nearly two million dollars on their Cyclopaedia) from tho sale of their high-priced publications are not pleased thatiheir monopolies are broken and their power overthrown. Of coutse the book agents and booksellers who have been oatd to getting from 40 to 60 per cent commission for selling these high-priced books $ 10,000 Reward KSSSS though those who are not short-sighted discover that their own interests, after all, am Identical with the interests of the people, and their real profits, in thfe end, are by the immense sales which result from meeting the people’s wants. The majority of booksellers, however, are better pleased to slander than to sell this and our numerous othtt standard and incomparably low-priced publications. But the Litorary Revolution &$• always looked to the people, in whose interests it is, for its patronage, and it has aevtft looked in vain, as our more than em 1 ■ JX • one million volumes printed last H m 1 i 0 MfC . year (this year being increased ■ V VIM M flgWlll9l to probably more than two millions) abundantly prove.
