SORTS.

BY GLEANER.

Democratic papers continue to howl in chorus that the tariff is the cause of trusts. The coffee trust was the first one organized and yet there is no tariff on coffee!! V The School Board should be bn the look out for good teaching talent for our public school. It is near the close of the year and about time for one or two to marry. It is the same old story. *♦* There should be a vigorous job of smelling done by the City Health officers. There are some hog and cattle pens that need cleaning, The Town Board ought to elect a health officer who has back bone enough to enforce the law -- - * * * The electric street lights are not as good as the gasoline lamps were, instead of 50 per cent, better. Tlie indications are that the company will need a strong “In-= dicator” to make good the promise. *#* If the Rochester, Rensselaer & St. Louis Railroad is built through Rensselaer our people must help do it. Ten years ago prominent citizens said the Chicago & Indiana Coal road could not miss Rensselaer, but it did about eight miles, and our people lost thousands of dollars by it. We should not depend upon “prominent citizens” but all go to work in order to get the road built through our town —it would give it a good boom. ,

Newton County Normal.

Every teacher should spend a part of the vacation in preparing for the next year’s work. To the teachers of Newton and adjacent counties an excellent opportunity will be afforded this summer.

From present outlook the attendance will be good. In order to get a suitable boarding place, or to obtain particulars concerning the Normal, addiess W. E. Morgan, 2t. Goodland, Ind.

We’ll be pleasarrt-rmd-irtnd; And I think that you’ll find, That we’ll sell as cheap as the res t, So give us a call, Come one and come all, And we’ll do our very best. Brothers, rememlxsr your vows, And bring your frows, And give them some ice-cream and cake. ———: ♦ - Mr. J. R. Grinstead, Ky. says: My children have sometimes had boils and other signs of blood impurities. with lbss of appetite, etc., at which times I have found Swift’s Specific a most successful remedy, in no instance failing to effect a speedy and permanent cure. “Swift’s Specific is a great blessing to humanity,” says Mr. P. E Gordon, of 725 Broad street Nashville, Tenn.,‘for it cured me of rheumatism of a very bad type, with which 1 had been troubled for three years. S. S. S. cured 1 me after I had exhausted everything else..

Mr. Russell Myrick, of the firm of Myrick & Henderson, Fort Smith Ark., says he wishes to add ■ his testimony to the thousands which have already been given as to Swift’s Specific. He says he derived the most signal benefit from its use to cure painful boils aud sores lesuhing from impure blood. When taken for a few days potash mixtures impair tho digestion, take away the appetite, and up the gastric juces which should assist in digesting and assimilating the food. Swift’s Specific has just the opposite effect; it improves digestion, brings appetite, and builds up the general health.
