You can’t afford to risk your letter going eslray when you can get envelopes neatly printed with your name and address at 50 cents for a single hundred, at the Independent office. Don't delay giving us your order. The Walkerton Milling Co. have been obliged to run nights lately to fill the orders pouring in for their flour, “Delightful” and “White Rose.” These brands have a large foreign as well as domestic demand. Which is wors*, imprisonment for life or a life-long disease, likescrofula, for example? The former, certainly, would be preferable were it not that Ayer’s Sarsaparilla can always come to the rescue and give the poor sufferer health, strength and happiness. While the Three I company placed the time limit at Jan. 1, 1895, for the completion of the extension to South Bend, they expect, to have the. road completed and trains running by Nov. 15. They will probably be running a construction train from Knox toWalkerton by the first of October. Earth. Yawns at Elkhart. A dispatch from Elkhart, Aug. 24, says: “It wuis noticed last Thursday | that a crack about three inches wide had started back from the south bank of the St. Joseph river, and that it extended to a considerable depth. Noth ing was thought of the matter until it was observed soon after that the crack was rapidly increasing both in depth and width. At this time it is between fifty and sixty feet in depth and three feet wide, and is still growing. In length it is 400 feet. A portion of the foundation of the Stone Bottling Works building has fallen into the fissure. If it continues its course for any length of time us it has the past three days great damage must result to property, as that portion of the city is thickly built up. No one has ever known anything of that kind to occur here before, ami some attempt to explain it on the theory that an underground stream branches off from the river at that point.” Bargains in Heat Estate Abstracts of title, deeds and mortgages.

Ayer’s Sarsaparilla is one of the few remedies which are recommended by every school of medicine. Its strength, purity and efficacy are too well established to admit of doubt as to its superiority over all other blood-puri-tiers whatever. Ayer’s Sarsaparilla leads all. The Liberty township republicans, last Saturday, nominated she following ticket: Isaac Reamer was nominated for trustee; John S. Weaver, for assessor; J. A. Naragan, justice of the peace, first, precinct; Stephen Bain, just ice of the peace, second precinct; constables, Harvey Houser, first, precinct; M. E. Irvin, second precinct. The American Farmer and Farm News says: A correspondent who is evidently very much discouraged at the out look, writes to ask us “what is the use of trying to raise big crops, when we can’t get half price for what we do raise, and if everybody doubled production, the price would be lower still?’ Dear friend, there is not the least danger in the world that everybody will try to double production. It. costs just as much to grow a half crop as it does a double one, and if you cannot get more than half price, you should try to get twice as much on the same number of acres. We know several farmers who do this, and they do not talk of ha. J times. Opening a watch ease with a knife or fingernail is needless in our day. I'he Keystone Walch Case Companv, of Philadelphia, Pa., furnishes free a handsome watch case opener which makes, besides, a pretty charm for the watch chain. If you can’t get one from your jeweler, send to Philadelphia. This company is the largest of its kind in the world, and makes ail kinds of eases. Its specialty is the Boss filled case. Jas. Boss invented and made the first tilled case in 1859, j and many of the cases then made and worn since are still intact. Later the Boss patents passed into the hands of the Keystone company, which has the sole right, to make these cases. It has also the sole right to use on its cases the patent Xon pull out bow or ring, which prevents loss of the watch by theft or injury to it by accident. The Keystone Company does not retail, but all jewelers sell the Boss and other Keystone cases. THE F^D OF FADS. In the September number of Demorest’s Magazine, Henry O. Havemever, Theodore A. Havemeyer, Frances Wil lard, Hamilton W. Mabie, Edward E. ! Rice, and Senator W. A. Peffer talk • entertaingly about their hobbies, and , it is very interesting reading, the inter jest being heightened by the accompanying portraits. “Spongers and , Sponging in Florida” is a handsomely I illustrated, readable article, which I everyone who uses a sponge will ap- ' preciate. “Submarine Lights” should :be read by every lover of the sea. “A Day Among the Shakers” is a romantic story accompanied with most exquisite piqfnres; and the other stories are exceptionally bright and amusing. “Sanitarian” contains a helpful article i ion “Corpulence Considered as a Di I I sense.” “Fans in Decoration” abounds j i in suggestions that will be appreciated ' ! by every housekeeper; and “Summer I Guests and their Entertainment” is esI pecially seasonable. The children are : not forgo! ten ; “A Failure in Business” I will be read by the small ones with I pleasure that will be shared by those of a larger growth, and Ilie “Puzzle” page is also of general interest. A’together, this is an exceptionally bril liant number; ami the beautiful watercolor, “Goldenrod,” is worth much more to lovers of the beautiful than the I subscription price for the whole year, which is only $2. Published by W. ’ Jennings Demorest, 15 E. 14th St., New York. - THE CAUSE OF SUMMER SICKNESS. Do you know that many of the summer ailments are due, to constipation?

Before using the New Heart Cure 1 Lad taken different so-called remedies and been treated by doctors without any benefit until I was both discouraged and disgusted.

I weighed 1& pounds w hen I began taking the remedy, and now I weigh 13014. Its effect in my case has been truly marvelous.
