Fishing is good at the river. Nappanee is organizing a gas company. Walkerton wants a bank. Talk it up. Walkerton wants more manufactories. Talk it up. Jake Taylor has been sorely indisposed for some time. G. R. Allen gets up a tasty sign. The proof of the pudding is trying him. Finest brands of cigars constantly on hand at O. F. Townsend’s tonsorial parlor. Mrs- Harriett A. Caswell has favored the Independeet with late papers from San Diego, California. If you want an attractive sign, go straightway to G. R. Allen, the painter and paper hanger. THE A M ERICA NFA RM ER, an excellent agricultural monthly, will be given as a premium to all cash in advance subscribers of the IxbEPENi»KNT. The State geologist states that gas is not found in all of the Trenton rock. It is only found in the porous parts of this rock, and it is therefore not certain that it can be found wherever this rock is struck. The New York San well says that “if Country newspaper proprietors were to publish the names of the subscribers who take, read and enjoy and are gratified by, yet. refuse to pay for their home papers, the reputation of most communities for moral honesty would depreciate twenty per cent. An editor’s labors are seldom esteemed or compensated. A lawyer will give you five minutes advice on one topic and charge you five dollars for it. An editor will give you advice on a hundred different topics and charge you three cents a copy for it. Three cents given to an editor would save five dollars given to a lawyer. In fact no other busi ness men are so universally robbed and swindled out of their labor and capital as the country newspaper publisher.” ANOTHER ART CRAZE. The latest art work among ladies is known as the “French Craze,” for decorating china, glassware, etc. It is some thing ENTirhly new, and is both profitable ami fascinating.

To every lady oidering this outJit who encloses the address of five other ladies interested in Art matters, to whom we can mail our new catalogue of Art Goods, we will enclose extra and without charge, a beautiful 30 inch, gold-tinted placque..

The late.'t scheme of the sharps is t<> get a farm* r to sign bis name “merely to show how it is spelled” or for some similar excuse, and after awhile the name turns up at the bottom of an order for some kind of a machine.
