Call at the Independent office and get a free sample copy of ‘•Womankind.” Dr. H. S. Dowell has a. new process by which he extracts teeth without pain or sleep. One hundred dollars was raised for the benefit of the poor by giving a charity ball at Goshen recently. Remember that Dr. 11. S. Dowell extracts teeth by the use of vitalized air as well as by other processes. The cheering news is given, and it is claimed with good authority, that the last of this month will see from 5,000 to 0,000 employes at work in the .South Bend factories. The venerable Judge Printiss, of Albion, is reported to be very sick at this writing— Tuesday evening—and all hope of his ultimate recovery seems to have been abandoned. An exchange says that the bay crop of this country, for the year 1893, is estimated at a value of an even billion dollars. Day stands at the head of the list of emr agricultural products. Corn comes next. « -~auCin Farm for bare. A farm of l(>0 acres, in Norton county, Kun., located 12 miles from county seat, for sale or trade.

Two years ago last October I had spells of vomiting; I could not keep anything in my stomach; the Doctor said I had consumption of the stomach and bowels; continued to run-down in weight; I was reduced to GO lbs. I would vomit blood, and at one time as much as three pints; we had two of the best Physicians and they said my case was hopeless. “Oh, my sufferings I were terrible.” A neighbor told us of your : Swamp-Root, and ray husband got a bottle; I ; took it to please him. I used six bottles of Swamp-Root and I am now nearly as well as ; ever. I iceigh 108 lba. 3 do my own work and take care of my baby. Every one says, J was raised frem the dead^ and many will not believe that I am still living until they come and see me, and then they can't believe their own .eyes, I am looking so weli^ Very gratefully.

Riley Fox, a Monon postal clerk, was sentenced to 18 months in the penitentiary at New Albany, recently, । for robbing the mails. Is There? Sam Miller was sentenced to two years in the penitentiary nt Muncie, Riidiiy, for forging an order for 50 cents.—lnd. Sun. Cmdrnst this with the sentence given Armstrong, the ex-Treasurer of Tipton county, who stole s4o,ooo—two years in the penitentiary! Is there a law for the rich and one for the poor? —Knox Republican. The following paragraph from the Elkhart Truth shows one method that city takes in assisting the poor: Sergeant Coley yesterday shot a uuin i" E out Gf^ Urw’mb. - • ’ Ais not am^B

to buy foo?'’Hum'is two horses. The) 1 horse which was not shot was younger and not so poor as the other, and was sold by its owner to a farmer south of town. The Marion Chronicle, published at Marion, this state, says that, when the Dunkards held their annual convention at Muncie last May, it was agreed ; with the railroads that each coinpanv should give 10 per cent of its earnings to the church. According to the agree ment the Big Four company has presented the church with $894.85, and the Lake Erie N Western, both branches, $287 20. In all, the church received the magnificent sum of $1182.05 from the two companies. It appears from this that it pays to hold annual meet Ings. R. G. Dim’s weekly report of Saturday, Dec. 30, says: Starting with the largest trade ever known, mills crowded with work, ami all business stimulated by high hopes, the year 1893 has proved, in sudden shrinkage of trade, in commercial disasters ami depression of industries, the worst, for fifty years. Whether the final results of the p.uiic of 1837 were relatively more severe the scanty records of that time do not clearly show. The year closes with prices of many products the lowest ever known, with millions of workers seeking in vain for work ,:ind with charity laboring to keep hack ' sufteiiiig and Sliuvulion in —aTT —viTr , cities. All hope the new year mav , bring brighter days, but the dying year leaves only a dismal record. The review of different departments of trade t given today exhibits a collapse of industry and business which is almost , without precedent. A Fortune Swept Away. 'I he Indianapolis Journal savs: ‘’One of the strikingly sal features 'connected with the misfortunes of I those interested in the affairs of the Indianapolis National bank is that of the widow of Schuyler Colfax. • The entire possessions of Mrs. Colfax and son, amounting to $27,000, were in vested in the late institution. On (lie 'collapse of the bank the Colfax family found themselves with their possessions tied up in a ruined institution. . Then the assessments were ordered and Mrs. Colfax was unable to meet tlm i demand. The deputy United States i marshal who served notice on her recently found himself in an embarrassing predicament. Although Mrs. Colfax bore up nobly through the reading of the writ, she was evidently on the verge of prostration and the deputy, finding himself too humane to witness tlm poor woman’s emotion, hurried away. His exit from the room was followed by the sounds of deep .sobbing.” SPECIAL OFFER. fnoruvi k> wiiik —i-U< ui.c JMion of the IxDF.CENm ST up to Hie mark, । which will require about 100 more subscribers, we will offer for a few weeks ' the Independent, lb v .

Wayne A' Mongoqiiinong road. It was a double Io;; Irmse, cn two buildings with an entry betwien and was used for n hotel and Boarding house and one room was used as a sample room or a place to sell goods. 'l’his was one of the pianos whero Comparet used to st 11 m • tiles f<>l It Llii: f,,। u ^piH^K " pair. He told them the needle’in)^ 1 was dead and that be eot any more, (’omparet was an niisei upnlous trader and in buying furs the Indians Im adopted a ruse riweighing the goods that was simply scandalous. He would balance a board evenly, lav his fi-J, which he said weighed a pound, on one end, and com pel Ilie Indians to put furs emmgh qn Ihe other end to balance it! On the same ‘scales’ his foot weighed ten pounds. Compaitd thrived hen* be fore mv time, but 1 have heard Ihe story from good authority ami I remember the Tamarack House well. Later it was succeeded by a hotel that was lu a Iqnarters for the black-legs ami many a dark crime was concocted under its roof.” Do ok /cno/o that Mercer Xeal. the leading graih dealers, are a Drags to tin I'ront iciih the JDiest grades (>J‘ a,i ^ seeds, ana dc[g competition.
