With pleasure ......born of experience we beg to inform you that we have this day received from the Contin - ental Tailoring Co., of Chicago, thei r complete line of samples for the coming spring and summer seasons. It is no exaggeration to say that such an elegant display of woolens has never been issued by" any house in the trade. The samples represent all that is choice and fashionable in Custom Tailoring, and comprise suitings in Cheviots, plain black or blue, as well as in all the latest weaves and shades, in wide and narrow wales, silk mixtures in various colors, all the novel tie? in dress Suitings and Overcoatings, as well as a handsome selection of Trouserings, superior to anything ever offered. The styles are shown in endless variety, patterns never so beautiful, and all at prices so surprisingly low. The superior character of the work turned out by the ’‘ContinentaLTailoring Company” is accounted for by the fact that all their garments are made in their own care and attention being given to every detail, consequently we are enabled to guarantee you absolute satisfaction on any order you may place with us. We therefore trust to have the honor of a call from you, and we shall be only too willing to show you through our line, feeling assured that a visit will repay you, and be the means of saving you quite a large amount by the early purchase of a suit, pants or overcoat.

A New Presbyterian Church.

And A Fine One Too, And To Be Built This Season. The Presbyterians of Rensselaer have decided that they will, this yearerect a spacious and elegant brick church edifice, to replace the ancient and far from artistic wooden structure they now occupy. The Financial Committee, which is already appointed, consists of the following. T. J. McCoy, chairman. . Geo. K. Hollingsworth.Seeretarv, E. L. Hollingsworth, Treasurer. E. D. Rhoades, John Coen, M. F. Chilcote, John Eger, F. Monnett, W. B. Austin, D. E. Hollister, F. J. Sears, J. W A McEwen. The building proposed to be erected will be a handsome and modern brick structure, to cost about $lO,000. It will be ornamental and architectural without, and all the modern

conveniences within. The auditory will be divided by rolling steel partitions, separating the Sunday school from the church, proper. When desired these partitions are rolled up and bothyooms are thrown into one. The seating capacity will be 500. This movement on the part of our Presbythrian brethren for a new church building of a style and size commensurate with the strength and standing of the congregation; and in keeping with the rapidly advancing architectural demands of the cown, is one that will meet with the most hearty general approval, as well as with that liberal encouragement of a more substantial sort, to which it is so clearly entitled.

The Town Board.

The Town Board, Monday night, passed an order requiring a general cleaning up of yards, alleys, <fcc. before May Ist. Also the removal of obstructions from streets. Thos. Thompson and ‘Jas. F. Antrim were appointed election inspectors for the ensuing town election. On petition of property owners, a sewer was ordered constructed on Dayton street, and Weston street expended. It will begin at the north limits of town and end at Makemself ditch, near Robt. Randle’s place. C. C. Sigler and Delos Thompson asked for a franchise granting them the right to erect poles for a proposed telephone system. The matter was postponed until an adjournment m eeting, to be held Thursday night of next week.

The anniversary of the Jasper County Bible Society was held Sunday night at the M. E. church. The Rev. Dr. Vigus, Dist. Supt. American Bible Society made a stirring address in behalf of the Bible cause. The collections reported were: M. E. church, $6; F. W. Baptist church, $1.25; total, $7.25. The following officers were chosen for the ensuing year: Pres. R. P. Benjamin; Treas and Depositary, F. B. Meyer; Cor. Sec’y. R. D. Utter. The local society now has a credit of about S6O on the books of the American Bible Society, N. Y., and is entitled to a return of that amount in Bibles. A fresh supply of Bibles, it is understood, has been ordered. The new books may be seen, as soon as received, at the depository, Mr. Meyer’s drug store. Call and examine them. All Bibles bearing the imprint of the Am. B. Soc., remember, are sold at the bare cost of publication. (They are given to people unable to buy.) The prices range all the way from twenty cents (Testament, five cents) up to twenty-five or thirty, dollars. The twenty cent Bibles are just the thing for the churches and Sunday Schools.

Mothers should be careful in use xjf as simple a remedy as a cough cure with their children. Many socaUed cough cures depend upon the stupefying effect of the opium they contain to hush the cough.
