Judge Tuthill, of Chicago, has made a very timely and sensible ruling to the effect that children shall not be subjected to “Christian Science,” “faith cure” and “divine healing” theories or beliefs, but shall have regular medical treatment. Adults may trust their ills to any treatment they pledge, but children must have intelligent guardianship and protection until they reach the age when they have a right to judge for themselves and do with their bodies as they choose

THURSDAY LOCALS.

Mrs. F. B. Meyer and daughter Thena and A. H. Hopkins went to Water Valley this morning to prepare the Fort Meyer club house for summer occupancy. Hon. E. P. Hammond and wife, of Lafayette, came to Rensselaer yesterday and remained until 10:55 today, guests of their daughter, Mrs. W. B. Austin. Mrs. M. H. Hemphill went to .Hammond today to be at the bedside of her niece, Mrs. Henry Zoll, who is very seriously sick with heart trouble. Mrs. George M. Robinson and Mrs. Charles Robinson are this afternoon entertaining quite a number of friends at the home of the former on River street. Albert Mathena, of Lexington, 111., who was here looking for land returned home today. He did not purchase this trip, but will probably come again, later. The rain poured down here at a tremendous rate for quite a while, last evening, and it seems to have been quite general in its extent. A good deal of water fell but farmers, for the most part, think it was none too much. Tuesday was the day set for opening the bids for installing a steam beating plant, at the Rensselaer school buildings. Only one bid was received and the School Board say they will not let the contract without some competition. The subject at the Methodist church next Sunday morning will be “The Bible Way to Study the Bible.” In the evening Rev. Henry Arlen district representative of the Anti-Saloon League will speak. Mrs. Dr. Hamar and son, of Franklin, Ind., are visiting the Laßue families, for a week or two. Mrs. Hamar’s husband is a dentist who was formerly at Rensselaer but is now at Franklin, and very prosperous.

The rainfall here last night, as shown by the U. S. rain guage, was one and eight-tenths inches, or very nearly two. It is a good deal of water to fall in one shower, and especially as short one as that was. “Jack” Knight, formerly a painter and paper hanger here, now a resident of Oklahoma City, only recently recovered from a severe attack of the small pox. He is now able to attend to his work again. Lightning struck the Presbyterian church at Remington yesterday at 7 o’clock p. m. setting fire to the steeple. It was at once discovered, the fire company turned out and the fire was put out before any serious damage resulted. W. H. Coover writes back that he is delighted with Oklahoma, that crops are fine, the weather ideal and everything hustling. He is at present at Oklahoma City and has met all of Rensselaer's colony there. He will not reach home until June 25th. Mrs. J. W. Powell, of Washington, D. C. and Mrs. Wilmer E. Griffith, of Huntington, Ind., arrived in Rensselaer today to visit Mrs. Charles G. Spitler. Mrs. Griffith was formerly Miss Hattie Powell and this is her first visit to Rensselaer since her marriage last February. Her husband is a physician at Huntington.

Sweet breath is a companion to a well ordered stomach. Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin keeps the stomach in order—the breath pure and sweet. Sold by A. F. Long.

WEST CARPENTER.

There will be a lawn social or picnic with ice eream and strawberries at Alter’s grove, 5 miles northwest of Remington Saturday evening, June 220 d. Everybody invited. Lewis S. Alter spent most of last week laying out a sewerage system for the town of Fowler. They have water works, electric lights and are preparing to de considerable brick paving this season. Fowler is keeping right up to date. The past ten days of hot weather has made wonderful change in the conditions of crops and the farmers now wear a smile that would cause £ feeling of envy in the heart of a political candidate. The Ist church house in Jordan Tp., is in a fair way to be built at once on the corner of Howard Burr’s farm. The foundation is laid, part of the lumber on the ground and the carpenters will commence this week. Howard Burr, John Bill, Jordan township’s trustees, and Lewis S. Alter, are the trustees. It is built for the Methodist Protestant church. This is a move in the right direction, school houses were not designed for churches, and should not be used for snch when it can be well avoided.
