Little 6cm Bakery iimrContccnoiicrt Tee Cream Parlor Cl ME used to be that every dealer made his own Ice Cream. Of recent years almost all dealers have had.it shipped in to them, and they are ignorant of the ingredients used and the methods of its manufacture. Cream is cheaper in the small town than it is in the city, and it is therefore more expensive to manufacture in the city, and add to this the manufacturer's profit and express charges, and if the Ice cream is sold at the same price the local manufacturer sells it for, there is a cheapening of the ingredients. The “Little Gem” uses pure cream, separated by local' dairymen—you know the product is pure and free from the ' cheapening processes employed by the manufacturers in the big cities. Our gasoline engine makes it possible to freeze ten gallons of cream in eight minutes. Orders delivered to any part of the city Try it and you will agree that the Little Gem Ice Cream is the best ever sold in Rensselaer. A large room with every appointment for the retail trade. 1 Make Us Your 100 Croom Makars. , A. E. BOLSER.

Close Call for “Billy” Eiglesbach.

Will Eiglesbach, 10 years of age and son of J. J. Eiglesbach, had a, close call Sunday morning. He was watching the workmen clean np the wreck aud was struck over the left eye by a tap that one of the workmen knocked off the end of a holt to ielease a steel rail. The tap was about an inch aud a half across and contained the broken .-J *. end of the bolt and weighed almost half a pound. He would have fallen but for the support of men standing near him. The tap only missed his temple an inch but struck on the heavy frontal skull bone and aside from causing a bad wound that bled profusely and re quired two stitches to close, no injury resulted. Today his eye is swollen shut aud it will be some time before the soreneis disappears.

“Our corn crop is worth, roughly one billjou of dollars* each jear. It is equal in valne to two-thirds of all our exports. Its value is twice that ol the world’s yearly output of gold and silver. The corn erop for ten years would nearly buy the; world’s production of gold for the last 400 years, and 80 per cent of the world’s corn crop is produced within an area of about one day’s ride irom Chicago.’’ The uatidbal corn exposition is now being held at the Coliseum in Chicago, and 10,000 people attended the opening Saturday night. The corn grower cuts a mighty important figure in not only the agricultural but the business world but the above statement of Harlow N. HigiuDothani, of Chicago of the magnitude of it) accomplishments by comparison will be news to many people. Truly corn of the pro duets of the farm and when it is worth 50 cents a bushel the crown of its supremacy is diamond studded. The show is said to be the biggest exhibition of corn ever held anywhere, and it would no doubt welLworth The while of any progressive farmer to go to the windy city to see the cord show.

Hopkins-Yeoman Wedding.

The many friends of Miss Harriet Yeoman and Mr. Bert Hopkins had rathet expected to attend their mar-riage-some time in November, but Cupid, the little god of matrimony, had made such rapid progress in their case lately that they decided to no longer resist the darts from the bow of the tiny archer, aDd at the same time haud their friends a surprise.

They waited Saturday to get the license until the Daily Republican repci ter had made his final court house rounds, but this precaution was not sufficient to fool the wise ones whb comprise the bride’s friends, aud scarcely had the license been issued than plans were started for a lively depot chariv iri. The marriage took place at the' home of the bride’s parents at 6 o’clock, only the immediate relatives being present to witness the ceremony, which was prouounced by Rev. H L. Kindig of Trinity M E. church.

TJhey went to the railway station shortly after the ceremony and ran into a bi£ crowd of friends fresh from ihe rice fields, and they got busy at once. There was a deluge of rice and a simultaneous expres sion of congratulations that surprised the eurprisers. The groom was marked by red and white bows pinned to his shoulders and both bore every symptom of ‘(jast married” bliss. After a short stay in Chicago they will retnrn to Rensselaer and begiu housekeeping in Miss Maud Spitler’s beautiful new home on north Van Rensselaer street. Miss Spitler will retain rooms there and Mrs. Spitler will go to Oklahoma to spend the winter with her sofa, Mariou L. Spitler.
