Jake Evans, of LaPorte, came down Wednesday to spend a few days visiting among the children of “Uncle” Samuel Parker, deceased. He was here a short time to attend Sam Parker’s sale. He lives in about seven miles of the Gunncss farm which has been the subject of so much controversey since April last. Mr. Evans tells us that It is pretty generally believed by the people of that immediate locality that Lamphere was innocent and that Mrs. Gunness is still living, also that the jury convicting Lamphere will be, severely censured for so doing. About fifty friends and neighbors of Mr. and Mrs, H. N. Moulds and family gathered at their home on Thanksgiving day about 11 o’clock and sprung a neat little surprise on them by bringing in well filled baskets of eatables, reminding Mr. and Mrs. Moulds of their seventeenth weding anniversary, also presenting them with a rocking chair to remember the occasion. In the evening the young folks came in again and surprised them a second time, leaving at a late hour wishing Mr. and Mrs. Moulds many more happy anniversaries.

CEMENT The Modernßuilding Material This is really a cement age. Wlthing’ the past ten years cement has been tested in the construction of every sort of building, and it has proven to be the best and most lasting in every respect of all building material except natural stone. And the more use that has been made of it the greater has come the demand for it. Great business buildings are being erected from cement in the cities, fine residences are being built from cement all over the country, the farmer is using cement for building barns and cribs and for all structural purposes. The chances of fire loss is much reduced by building from cement, and the buildings are longer llfed, warmer, the paint expense is eliminated and the buildings more handsome than frame structures. The uses to which cement has been put have been increased by the unreasonable rise in the price of lumber and building material, for which the lumber trust is responsible. This has caused the capitalist who erects great city structures and the small city home builder and the farmer everywhere to turn to the use of cement for every, sort of building. This has been a fortunate thing indeed for cement has proven the most economical, durable, strongest and after a few months by far the cheapest of all building materials ever used. Travel in any direction and you will find in the city or through the farming districts that the up-to-date man is using cement almost exclusively for building purposes. Therefore the man that contemplates putting up any kind of a structure owes it to himself to Investigate before he builds. He should not allow some lumber dealer for the sake of his own personal profit to persuade him that cement is too expensive and unsatisfactory in many respects. Investigate before accepting such statements, CONTRACTOR M. V. BROWN Of Rensselaer, will gladly show you the goods to substantiate any of these statements. He can show you that the users of cement are more than satisfied. Hot-Air is Cheap But you want to see the man who knows and can put your ideas of a building in the form of an intelligent plan with the figures so that you will know that he knows. M. V. BROWN stands as the only contractor in Jasper, county who combines a long building experience with a thorough knowledge of architecture, and who can give you blue prints and full details of what he proposes to do for you. Don’t Deceive Yourself If you intend to build either frame or cement see him and he will gladly help you work out your plans until they are what you want and will make an estimate on any job, cement or frame. His residence is just west of King’s Green House, in the nodth part of the city. I want you to know that I want to do your building and can make your plans, make the blue prints, and build your work from start to completion. Now is a good time to plan for next year’s buildings, far enough in advance to learn all about cement. M. V. BROWN, Contractor.
