Some fellow said the other day that corn was growing two inches a day. If that, is true, and something don’t head it off, the corn this year will be about thirty feet high. 'The annual message of the president of the Northern Indiana Editorial Association at South Bend last Thursday, xvas an excellent one. Editor Jernegau also presides with dignity. Tramps are becoming a very dangerous element, as well as unmitigated nuisances. They travel in gangs and do not hesitate to attack and capture trains, cutting and shooting in true banditti style. It is high time the outlaws were brought to judgment. —Jlishawaka Enterprise. Skeert, are you? Well, this paper told you fellows two years ago that something had to be done. Glad to see you frightened. The above confession makes Br’er Jernegan a full fledged member in good standing of the Anti-Tramp Association. Thieving tramps are reported all around us. If you have occasion to go to the door to answer a call from these fellows be sure that they are safely outside your premises before you leave them. Thursday a couple called fit a house in a neighboring city, and while the lady was gone after something to eat they stole a silver watch and other convenient valuables and left. The surest way to treat a tramp is on the theory that he is a thief naturally and will bear watching.—Michigan City Dispatch. Would Senator Francis favor Ihe passing of a stringent law against the tramp ? Ben F. Rinehart says mat the prospects for a butter and cheese factory at this place have not all vanished by any means. He says that if any difference the prospects look even brighter than ever, stating that he has recently conversed with quite a number of substantial farmers who in the start paid no attention to it that since investigating in favor of it and that they will take stock in the concern. Mr. Rinehart thinks that after harvest when the farmer is not so hurried with his work it will be no trouble whatever to raise the stock, and suggests that the matter be taken up right after harvest and pushed to a finish. Those ‘interested, those whom such an enterprise would surely benefit should walk right up like chickens to the dough and take their share of stock and hurry the work along.

Nervous women seldom receive the sympathy they deserve. While often the pictures of health, they are constantly ailing. To withhold sympathy from these unfortunates is the height of cruelty. They have a weak heart, causing shortness of breath, fluttering, pa : n inside, weak and hungry spells, and finally swelling of ankles, oppression, choking, smothering and dropsy. Dr. Miles’ New Heart cure is just the thing for them. For their nervousness, headache, weakness, etc., his Restorative Nervine is uncqualed.

[Continued from last wee’:.] UNDER FALSE COLORS. Sho was the most amusing woman in New York. Her conversation was like the coruscations of brilliant tireworks, so dazzling that it was almost impossible to analyze it; but those who had self-possession enough to close (.heir eyes against the flashing light, saw in her a thoughtlessness and carelessness for the feelings of others, and a thorough absence of heart in herself; sho was as brilliant as the rainbow, but as cold. Fanny was taken into society, after only a few months, by Mrs. Plessley who took every care to display whatever beauty or accomplishments her young relative possessed. Fanny soon made up her mind that Mrs. Plessley was using her for a speculative purpose, the desired end being a rich husband. While the widow was not particularly anxious to exchange her freedom for the matrimonial yoke, she schemed to gain for herself fortune and position by marrying Fanny advantageously. “The waited-for man came at last. He was a millionaire, and was infatuated with Fanny, and was 60 years old. 'I he girl recoiled from the proposed match with disgust; the venerable suitor pleaded; Mrs. Plessley commanded. Upon Fanny’s final refusal, the widow ordered her to leave the house, never to enter again. With the remainder of the money which she had originally brought with her, and which she had kept, because she had found no need to spend it, she went ant into the world.” "•Iff were only a man,’ sue said to herself,’ I could get on better; I would at least be free from insult and could seek my fortune much more comfortably. , “This set her to thinking, and by morning she had resolved upon a novel masquerade. Very early she set out, and a short walk brought her to a clothing ware-house. She entered, and thus ad tressed the shopman: ‘Have you ready-made suits for boys or young men ?’ ‘“Yes, 1 was the reply. ‘“Please show me some?” “She selected a suit of clot hes which she thought would answer the purpose had them put in a bundle and took them to her room, together with a cap which she bought on the way. Half , an hour afterwards she looked in the . mirror and saw a smart young fellow of 18—but with her hair reaching to ■ the waist. A pair of scissors skillfully used soon brought the hair into proper condition, and then she scarcely knew herself. “With the next train she started for the West, stopping at Buffalo, where she obtained a situation in a warehouse to lill a temporary vacancy; but that job lasted only a few weeks, and then she went to Chicago. There, siie looked for work in vain until her money was almost exhausted, and she found that being a man did not insure success. Her slender and youthful appearance debarred her from work of a heavy nature, and lighter situations, such as bookkeepers, clerks, etc., were sea rce. “At last, finding that starvation was her only prospect in the city, Fanny resolved to try the country. By chance she read in a newspaper of a railroad being in course of construction, and so she came here.” “Came here!” ejaculated John Marshall. “Then you are ” “I am Fanny Lamport,” was the blushing reply. A silence of some length ensued at the completion of Fanny’s story, broken finally by Jolin Marshall. “I don't see,” he said with some hesitation, “that we need part just because you have changed your sex; but then, you see it .wouldn't be exactly proper for you to stay here with me, now that 1 know you’re a girl.” Fanny was silent. She was thinking of the bitterness of leaving the man she had learned to love. The moments she had spent in his society had been the happiest since her parents’ death. “Do you wish to leave me?” asked John. “No, indeed,” replied Fanny, quickly •'Please don't make, me go away. Nobody but you knows of my sex.” “1 see but one way for you to do as yen desire.” Name it.” “By marrying me.” It was settled with a hug and a kiss.

IT PAYS J To be caution: in the choice of medi, 3 cines. Many are injured by trying ex' | periments witli compounds purporting I to lie blood - purifiers, the principal-1 recommendation of which would seeij J to be their “cheapness.” Being rnad^ up of worthless, though ‘not alway^J harmless, ingredients, they may well!, be “cheap;” but, in the end, they ar ( / ' dear, the most reliable medicines are J costly, ami can be retailed at mod-, erate prices, only when the manufactur-f ing chemist handles the raw materials in large quantities. It is economy, therefore, f To Use Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, the valuable components of which are imported, wholesale, by the J. C. Ayer Jo. from the regions where these articles tire richest in medicinal properties. “It is a wonder to me that any other? than Ayer's Sarsaparilla has a show in the market. If people consulted their own interest, they would never use any other; for it is not only- the best, but, on account of its concentrated strength and purity, it is the most economical."—James F. Duffy, Druggist, Washington st., Providence, IL I. Dr. A. L. Almond, Druggist, Liberty, Va., writes: “Leading physicians in tin's city prescribe Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. I have sold it for eighteen years, and have the highest regard foi its healing qualities.”, “Although the formula is known to the trade, there can be no successful imitation of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. Without having the enormous facilities of the J. C. Ayer Co., it is impossible for other parties to put together such valuable ingredients, at the low cost of Ayer's Sarsaparilla It stands at the head of all similar preparations."—Mark A.

It stands in the third place in 1890, when? it will remain ten years and then move up to second place in 1900, where it will rest for one hundred years. There is another “9” which has also come to stay. It is unlike the figure 9 in our dates in the respect that it has already moved up to first place, where it will permanently remain. It is called the “No. 9" High Arm Wheeler A Wilson Sewing Machine.
