GRASS

TRIHLIER

Being Manufactured in This City by Fisk & Jay. It may not be generally known, but it is a fact that Ifisk & Jay, of this city, have been granted a patent on a grass trimmer, and the same is being manufactured in great quantities by the above firm in this city. ; The Fisk grass trimmer is a shear, made of high-grade steel, with a powerful construction, which enables it to cut a rank growth of grass and weeds. The material and workmanship used in its construction are of the very best and it is unquestionably the only grass trimmer ever construct ed entirely on mechanical principles. While of new and novel construction, it is of great simplicity and .its usefulness and easy operation makes it a necessity to a well-kept lawn. Re member, the Fisk grass .trimmer is a shear and is to be used as a shear, and not as a lawn mower. Your lawn mower will cut your lawn quicker and better than anything else. It is intended to trim your lawn around the flowerbeds, walks, drives, terraces, fences, buildings any place where your lawn mower cannot cut, and this it will do better and easier than anything else made. There' is nothing to get out of or der, and if taken care of should last a life time. They are sold by the Hardware trade generally. PRESIDING ELDER An Important Question For Settlement at Conference. The campaign of Dr. II. W. Ben nett for presiding elder of the Muncie district is warming up and becoming one of the interesting features of the approaching annual conference of the Methodists to be held in Muncie. Another matter that is interesting the members of the church is the proposed change of boundary lines and the organization of a new district to be known as the Logansport district. For several years the Northwest Indiana conference has had covetous designs on a good slice of territory lying along the old Michigan road which, if granted by the general conference which meets in Los Angeles in May, would take Logansport, Mishawaka, Russiaville, Kempton, Circleville, Sheridan and several other good charges, thirteen in all,' from 1 the ..orth Indiana conference. This is desired by the northwest conference in order to make the city of Logansport the head of a district. The Logansport charges, as well as the others which would be effected bv the chamre are, it is said, verv much opposed to the proposed change. This scheme will be fought to a finish at the Muncie conference. It is said that President Elder Herriek has a plan on foot that will forever set the matter at rest, and which will probably be adopted at the coming conference. His plan is to make a new district within the bounds of the North Indiana Conference, with Logansport as the head of the new district. This can be done by taking a small slice from the Kokomo and Wabash districts. In turn the Kokomo and Wabash districts would draw from Muncie and Ft. Wayne districts. There are now six districts in the North Indiana conferenceFt. Wayne, Goshen, Kokomo, Wabash, Muncie and Richmond districts. Whatever changes in ministers are made will be made by Bishop C. C. McCabe and his cabinet, which is made up of the presiding elders. The Rev. J. O. Bills ras resigned the Alexandria charge. If the Logansport district is created it will open up two or three first-class places to be filled. ' rafllfER Mr. and Mrs. B. F. Parker entertained Mr. and Mrs. Chas.

H was not a bad young fellow, but ha carried the habit of self glorification beyond the possible point, so that he got himself disliked, and ordinary men said that he was a romancer. A son of the house took him aside and spoke to him delicately upon the subject. "Waal," the American said, "it would hurt me to offend any of your insular prejudices, but the fact is that when I commence to bluff my tongue sorter runs away with me. I'd take it kindly if you'd give me a nudge or a kick or something when you think I'm spreading it too thick." The son of the house said he would.
