Farm Gumption.

Have you saved a little money this year? Invest some of it in the old farm; do something to make the place better. You could have no better bank than your own farm. Every dollar thus invesetl will come back with tenfold interest If a farmer wishes to find out the amount of corn he has on the ear, multiply the length of crib in feet, and divide by two and one-fourth. The easy way to divide by two and one-south is to multiply by four and divide by nine. A neighbor who is visiting in the city since corn-husking is over, writes home about taking chances on a six-cylinder motor car, and last summer he objected to his wife buying a gasoline stove because he was afraid to have the peeky thing around It is very annoying to te’ephone subscribers to find during the very busy hours in the evening, when they want to use the phone, that some couple are sparking over the wire, or somebody else is holding a long conversation. Some people use the telephone almost any time for almost anything.—December Farm Journal.

Fun at Royal Center.

Winamac Democrat: Royal Center people bad an exciting mix-up between the boozers and the anti-boozers la t Saturday o er the possession of a wagon load of beer which the marshal had previously confiscated as contraband goods. The temperance people, etood massed around the beer; which had been unloaded from a dray to the gutter by the owner of the dray, George Icemasters, a temperance man, who objected to his mules drawing a wagonload of “booze.” Headed by Marshal Wellington Gaby, the temperance people wished to get axes and destroy the cases of beer, but the friends of Wesley Huffman, who has charge of the beer, threatened to start trouble, if the beer was molested. Royal Center is a “dry” town, and the feeling between the liberal element and the temperance people is very bitter. A riot was only prevented by counsel of Attorney James Fry and other heads. The beer was consigned to A. J. Conn, a former saloon keeper, who keeps a restaurant. After the two factions had faced each other for some time and almost come to blows, Huffman got a friend to hitch up his horses and the beer was removed to his home. His mother refused to let him store it in the cellar, so it was piled inside the fence. ' Geo. Myers, an old time trapper and fisher, of Elwood, caught a fine specimen of the stork species, the only one ever seen alive there, and will ■end it to President Roosevelt. One of the greatest novelties of the season is cloth for evening wear. Most coats will be semi-fitting and will extend below the hips. Michigan City's water supply is bad, according to a report just made by H. E. Barnard, chemist to the state board of health, and J. H. Brewster, wafer chemist In the state toryThe fastest run ever made by a Baltimore & Ohio train for long distance was accomplished last week when a train carrying J. P. Green, first vice-president of the Pennsyl Tania and a director of the Baltimore & Ohio, was hauled from Chicago Junction to PlttAburg, 147 miles In ’JW minutes. For the distance this I 'ls held tty motive power offices to be a speed record.

A GOOD NAME fer; ‘0 i 3 -jj 1 ,L,A

EVERY one desires to establish for himself a good name, but it takes time to win the confidence of your fellow men. Truth and perseverance are the alternate rungs on the ladder of success, and he who reaches the top must make no false step. There are hundreds of cough medicines with all sorts of names, each claiming to be the best, but the test of time will prove whether or not they have established the right to be called the best.

ANOTHER BIG FOOTBALL GAME

£. T’a - » d t-1 t W FT • Rensselaer City Team is to Play Lowell Here Wednesday, Dec. 2. Lowell Will Bring Rooters Along.

Wednesday, Dec. 2, will be the Bth anniversary of the great football contest between Pat O’Dea’s South Benders and the old guard that for many seasons kept the local goal line from being crossed by the enemy. It was the Monday after Thanksgiving, but it was the 2d of December. And strangely enough the Bth anniversary of that contest has been selected as the date for the game between the present Rensselaer city team and the Lowell Athletic Club. For several years Rensselaer has organized a team annually for the express purpose of playing Lowell a game and Rensselaer has always either won or tied until this year when Bruce Hardy took a crowd of huskies to Lowell and got them slimmed to the tune of 15 to 4. Lowell gave our boys a fine reception, showed them a splendid time and didn’t rub it in because they won the game, but they were mighty greatly tickled, for they had been striving year after year to get a team that would beat Rensselaer. Our boys didn’t mind the defeat so much, either, on account of the fact that the two towns have always maintained such friendly relations and if some one had to beat us we would sooner have it Lowell than any one else. Of the game the Lowell Tribune says in part: Until Sunday Lowell has, on four different occasions, left the field the vanquished, while the bloody red and somber black of Rensselaer has been flaunted to the breeze, the victor. But Lowell’s long sought

Beveridge Calls Bible Best All Round Book.

When In search of good matter turn to the bible. When in need of hard, material advice on hard material subjects, turn to the bible. When in search of exciting tales of battle, of love, of tales of the goodness of humanity, always turn to the bible. It contains all this and much more, according to United States Senator Albert J. Beveridge, of Indiana, who spoke on “The Bible as Good Reading” before the Chicago Sunday evening club last Sunday. Every seat in the »auditorlum and on the stage was occupied when the evening services began. “No stories published in the magazines of today have such gripping Interest as the stories In the bible,” c'ecjsred Senator Beveridge. “Purely as a volume of entertainment I have often wondered that the bible Is r.Q$ more widely read. Like other gifts of God, It is so common that we fall to appreciate It”

Married at Methodist Parsonage.

Rev. H. L. Kindig performed a marriage ceremony at the parsonage Thanksgiving day, the principals being Mr. George Culp, of Monon and Miss Olive M. Osborne, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John L. Osborne, of north of town.

•* p. I ji Careful selection of the drugs, intelligent and skillful compounding, the entire absence of opium, chloroform, or* any other harmful ingredient, and the absolute purity of every article that goes into its. composition, has built up and sustained its good name. These are the things you should remember, and the next time you want a cough medicine, it is worth while to see that you get Chamberlain’s and secure the virtues which a good name implies. Every dealer who sells a bottle of Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy guarantees it to give satisfaction or he will refund the money.

victory was not gained in any easy manner. Rensselaer fought well and nobly, never faltering for an instant and even with odds against them, in the matter of score, played most brilliant foot ball and for a time in the second half it seemed as though Lowell would again be defeated. Forward pass followed forward pass, end runs, line plunges, all the tricks that go with good foot ball were tried successfully and Lowell was forced back, back to within 15 yards of their goal. Then on off-side play by Lowell she lost 7 1-2 yards. Then they held; with their goal threatened, with Rensselaer striving for that touch down, fighting with every ounce, Lowell held. That was a gallant stand and well done. The ball went to Lowell and an instant later Shurte’s trusty boot put the ball out of danger; but not for long. Rensselaer came back more determined than ever. A splendid end run by Collins placed the ball on the 20 yard line and Morgan in a well executed drop kick put the ball squarely between the uprights and the score given. Lowell can at last say she has defeated Rensselaer. But we cannot help but admire the pluck, nerve, perseverance and fighting spirit that we find its equal. Nowhere with the we find its equal. Now her e with the odds against them, can you find a team so dogged, so determined, so full of fight until the final whistle blows. Rensselaer, even in your defeat, you are game, we admire and respect you.

Not While Taft is President.

Major Wheeler, a Union veteran and editor of the Lake County Star, has this to say of the proposition to pension ex-Confederate soldiers by the government: “Many of the ex-Confederate soldiers In the South are signing a petition which will be presented to congress later on asking that they be pensioned the same as the Union soldiers, and give as reason that they have now been peaceable citizens under the stars and stripes for 43 years. They are supposed to need the pensions, but it would be funny for a government to pension men who fo.ught four years to ruin the country, and then get paid for it by the nation.”

Manual Training.

Manual training is gaining favor more and more in the public schools of Indiana. Gary, the working man’s town, is well equipped for this, an* is planning new improvements. Eighty five cities and towns of Indiana have manual training in some form* Thirtyfive have domestic science and are equipped for cooking. This is cer-I talnly taking a great step in favor of the working class, who have so often raised Abe objection that the High School course Is not practical enough.

Weak Kidneys Make Weak Bodies.

KIDNEY DISEASES CAUSE HALF THE COMMON,ACHES AND ILLS OF RENSSELAER PEOPLE. As one weak link weakens a chain so weak kidneys weaken the whole body and hasten, the final breaking down. Overwork, strains, colds and other causes injure the kidneys, and when their activity is lessened the whole body suffers from the excess of uric poison circulated in the blood. Aches and pains and languor and urinary Ills come, and there Is an ever increasing tendency towards diabetes and fatal Bright’s disease. There Is no real help for the sufferer except kidney help. Doan’s Kidney Pills act directly on the kidneys and cure every kidney 111. C. L. Westbrook, Broadway, Monticello, Ind., says: ‘‘Doan’s Kidney Pills did me a great deal of good and I am glad to recommend them. My back was very lame and sharp pains would often dart across my loins. I could not rest well at night and had but little strength or energy. I noticed that the secretions from my kidneys were disordered and seeing Doan’s Kidney Pills advertised for such complaints, I procured a box and began their use. They benefited me greatly and I have not been troubled In any way by my kidneys since.” Plenty more proof like th’S from Rensselaer people. Call at B. F. Fendlg’s drug store and ask what customers report. For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, New York, sole agents for the United States. Remember the name —Doan’s —and take no other. Beginning next month all emplpyes ts the Pennsylvania railroad -company will be paid In cash. Circulars have been sent out to all employes exp aiuing the new system of paying In ctsh and final arrangements for affecting the change were made at Phllacelphla last week. It Is also reported that the Baltimore & Ohio will abandon its present plan of giving checks instead of cash. The officials claim that the expenses are much heavier than under the cash system. a Don’t forget the Christian church bazaar, the 4th and sth of December.
