Afraid of Ghosts • I'ZA? ' Many people are afraid of ghosts. Few people —■ are afraid of germs. Yet the ghost is a fancy and X -*/••’ - A the germ is a fact. If the germ could be magnified I F l y to a size equal to its terrors it would appear more V- jy yML terrible than any fire-breathing dragon. Germs \ 1 **■ can’t be avoided. They arc in the air we breathe, the water we drink. The germ can only prosper when the condition ©f the system gives it free scope to establish it- w== ’ IM, , self and develop. When there is a deficiency of vital force, languor, restlessness, a sallow cheek, • hollow eye, when the appetite is poor and the I sleep is broken, it is time to guard against the germ. You con ■ fortify the body against all germs by the use of Dr. Pierce’s Gold- fl en Medical Discovep'. It increases the vital power, cleanses the A system of clogging impurities, enriches the blood, puts the stom- R < aoh end organa of digestion end nutrition in working condition, so u") V) that the germ finds no weak or tainted epot in which to breed. i\ i\ 1 “Golden Medical Discovery" contains no alcohol, whisky or UI l| habit-forming drugs.

Miriam was playing with other children at school and fell or was pushed down on the sidewalk, striking on her right hip. She complained of the injury, but it was regarded as only a bruise and was treated as such, but this Tuesday morning she was unable to rise and the family physician was called and it was found that the hip was dislocated and as it had become very sore, it was necessary to administer an anesthetic while the injury was reduced.

Rensselaer Boys Playing On College Football Teams.

Ray Hopkins, at Wabash, and Leonard Elder, at Franklin, seem to be the only Rensselaer boys who are certain of positions on college football teams this fall. The failure of “Husky” Bowman, one of last year’s Wabash etars to return to school, leaves a big opening in that team, as he had been counted on for behind the line. Hopkins will play at tackle, but it is hardly probable that Wabash will be as strong as during previous years. Elder had no trouble making haif back at Franklin and he will probably run over most opposing players in the second grade colleges from an athletic standpoint. Floyd Meyers is also attending Franklin and can probably make the team if he tries, and he is mentioned as a possibility for full back. If he goes into the game and the other players are any good, Franklin football stock should take a big boost.
