present. Dr. A. D. Reynolds is in town every Saturday prepared to treat diseases of the horse. Corn for sale at Mrs. Mary Gensinger’s, miles southwest of Teegarden. 18th Archie Williams, who has been laid up with white swelling on his leg most I of the time for two months past, is : able to be out again. Rev. Gillette's Thanksgiving sermon is highly spoken of as having been a very able discourse, in fact one of the ! best ever heard here. The county commissioners met in ! regular session at South Bend last Monday. Beyond examining and al- , lowing claims no other business of importance was transacted. Dr. E. A. Guy, the missing 'Mishawaka druggist, has finally turned up. He was recently arrested in Ohio and ! taken to Berrien Springs, Mich., and placed in jail, charged with obtaining $250 under false pretenses of a charming widow, Airs. Eunice Spangenberg, of Galien, Mich. There are some old . offenses of a similar nature standing against the doctor. Keep onions in the house. They are one of the best medicines known. Boiled onions taken about an hour be- - fore going to bed will. usually relieve any but the worst cases of insomnia. The heart of a hot boiled onion placed in the ear will often relieve an earache The syrup obtained by sprinkling a, sliced onion with sugar and baking it : in the oven will ordinarily relieve a ! t croupy child. Eating raw onions will ' < generally cheek a “cold in the head.” ■ i A Happy Husband.

As a last resort I tried Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Boot, and before I had used the third bottle I realized that I was gaining in every way. The use ol Swamp-Root has made a Marvelous Cure in my case.

Wanted. 1,000 cords of wood at ’ the Globe clothing store. The Boston clothing house at Michigan City has failed for $20,000. Office room for rent. Front, room, bay window. J- Endly. Drop in at Townsend's barber shop, near the postoffice, when you want a slick hair-cut or shave. There are 853 inmates in the Michigan City prison. 'The prison is in a flourishing condition and has more than paid expenses during the past year, so it is reported. When you want sale bills remember that the Independent otlice will do you a neat job on water proof paper at the lowest price. In addition we will give a. notice of sale in the paper free of charge. An exchange says that the Adventists, at Battle Creek, Mich., think the end of the world is at hand, and are selling off their goods for what it will bring, and spending the proceeds in trying to convert sinners. At a guessing contest at Albion re-

cently a young lady guessed the exact number of seeds in a pumpkin. She guessed 733 and when the pumpkin was cut open it was found to contain exactly that number of seeds. A writer says that whenever a horse driven by him has balked, he has got out of the carriage, gone to the horse's forefoot, lifted it from the ground and struck the shoe a few blows with a stone. He has never failed to start a horse in this very simple way. The Independent, Womankind and American Farmer all for $l5O. This is a special offer that will hold good only until the first of January. Come in at once and secure the benefit of this liberal offer. Three good papers one year for $1.50 is ridiculously cheap and you can not afford to miss the bargain. This from an exchange is a very simple way to construct a barometer: Take a piece of string about 15 inches long, saturate it in a strong solution of i salt and water, let it dry and then tie a light weight on one end and hang it up against a wall and mark where the weight reaches to. The weight rises for wet weather and falls for fine. The string should be placed where the outside air can freely get to it. A man who was a prosperous country merchant up to ISG7, then became a banker in a flourishing Northern Indiana town, and in 1872 was elected a ' member of the Indiana legislature, I now fills the position of church janitor at a salary of $8 a month. He considers himself in luck to have succeeded in getting the latter position with its small pittance of compensation. Fate has dealt severely with him, —undeservedly so, for he never was and is not now a bad man.—South Bend Times. An exchange says that, an appeal , is made in the press to the farmers of I the country to be on their guard I against the nmv agricultural pest, the j

I I | Russian thistle, which is said to be i even more dreaded than the Canadi- | an thistle which lias gained such a ' . foothold in our country. The Russian ; thistle was in.ported in some flax seed to Scotland, South Dakota, seventeen ! years ago, and has in that short space of time spread over 30,000 square miles ।of territory. The damage to crops the past year from this enemy is placed at $2,000,000. A coming town is Porter, Porter county, this state. A dispatch from Valparaiso states that the Chicago Porter Home Investment Company have just sold 200 acres of their land at that place to a syndicate of Chicago, Cincinnati and Boston capitalists. The new company oh Monday put forty-eight bricklayers at work to erect | three large brick buildings for a large brass manufacturing company of New York, who will remove their plant, January Ist. They will start up with 150 men. The syndicate has contrac- ; ted with one large manufacturing comI pany of Chicago and one from Cincinnati to remove to Porter as soon as buildings can be erected for them. Holiday Excursions. Dake Brie & Western railroad will j sell for the Christmas and New Year holidays, excursion tickets between ■ all stations on its line, at the very low rate of one and one-third fare for the round trip.

Picked Up. Empty vessels make the greatest sound. It is the street sweeper who frequently “skips the gutter.” ' Do be natural: n poor diamond is bet ter than a good imitation. , The man who continues to back racehorses seldom gets to the front. A dude is much a peacock. He only lives to show his fine feathers. If you wish togain one’s friendship don't ask him for an ironclad note. lie is a misguided youth who does every thing his sweetheart asks him to do. Don’t try to encourage a man to follow his bent when he bus • an attack of bilious colic. The man who publishes his charities in the newspapers expects to gain more than he gives. The whistling of the winds and the whistling of a woman are very much alike in one respect. Neither can stop a street car. There is one satisfaction for a man whois in debt. If he gets sick Lis creditors will be bis watchers; if "■ dies, his mourners. , 1" If florists keep on increasing the s®of the chrysanthemums something wf * have to be done to increese the status? of the young men who wear them. f, Keep in mind the Chrstmas ball to be held in Bender's opera house. The Auburn Dispatch very truthful ly remarks: “There never was a time when there was greater need of honesty ami stei ling manhood in young men. The newspapers are full of crimes mostly commit ted by young men, or men not yet past middle life. The courts ' are crowded with criminal eases and, the penitentiaries are running over I with young men. There is too much; racetrack, too much gambling, too much ignorance, too much getting some-( thing for nothing in the min )s of young । men t > produce the ideal manhood, j. The young man who will succeed in I the twentieth century is the one who] is pushing, honest, thorough and con-1 scieutimis; the one whois determined I to win by fair means and hard work.” !

Tiie important experiences of others are Interesting. The following is no exception: “I had been troubled with heart disease 25 years, much of that time very seriously. For live yeans I was treated by one physician continuously. I was in business, but obliged to retire on account of my health. A physician told my friends that I could not live a month. My feet and limbs were, badly swollen, and I was indeed in a serious condition when a gentleman directed my attention to Dr. Mlles’ New Heart Cure, and said that his sister, who had been a filleted with heart disease, had been cured by the remedy, and was again a strong, healthy woman. 1 purchased a bottle of the Heart Cure, and in less than an hour after taking the first dose I could feel a decided improvement in the circulation of my blood. When I had taken three doses I could move my ankles, something I had not done for months,and my limbs had been swollen so long that they seemed almost putrilied. Before I had taken one bottle of the New । Heart Cure the swelling had all gone down, I and I was so much better that I did my own I work. On my recommendation six others are ; taking tills valuable remedy.”—Mrs. Morgan, 569 \V. Harrison St., Chicago, Hl.
