Dr. Arlington makes st specialty of’ 1 electric treatment. - i Hurry Richmond, lite actor, will , start out from Winamac soon with a theatrical troupe. The South Bend Tinies says the county delinquent tax list this year is one of the largest in years. Tuesday night was another cold 1 night. At seven o'clock in the morn : ing the mercury stood at six degrees 1 above zero. The Tjiporte improvement Association has been incorporated with a capital of $1,000,1100. It will build an am pi t heat er with large seating capacity, bowling alley, etc. The K. of I*. of this city think they can secure the state encampment of the Uniform Rank witli proper effort. It will be necessary to raise $1,500 to defray expenses. LaPorte Argus. In welcoming the farmers' institute to Terre Haute, recently, (he Rev. W H. Hickman said: “We have the finest saloons, the best lilted up gambling dens, the fastest horses, the best race track and the poorest churches in this country.” An exchange says that physicians of Anderson are puzzled over the case of Alice Hart, aged 6. Her feet have turned to carbon. Six weeks ago she was well, but was attacked with pains in her feet. They gradually turned black and are now dead. Rev. Dr. Johnson, of South Bend, has been selected as principal delegate to the sixth general council of the al liance of the reformed churches throughout the world, holding the Presbyterian system, to be held at Glasgow, Scotland, between June and October, 1896. Colfax and Ingersoll. A contemporary relates the following interesting incident: Ex Vice President Colfax once met Ingersoll on n train in Illinois and the agnostic said to him in a loud tone. “Colfax, in ten years nobody will believe the infamous religions doctrines you believe new.” | Nr. Colfax said: “I do not widi io J debate with you on a train, but I will • make one remark and ask you one > question. I suppose that when you call my creed infamous that is free thought, but if I should call your doctrine infamous, that would be bigotry. Here is a mother caressing the golden ringlets of her babe; her face radiant with divine mother love. The infant is smitten by the untimely frost of death, and the mother’s heart is broken. As she sees the little coffin lowered into the grave the only hope and comfort she has is the thought that she will some day meet the babe in heaven. You are trying to take away that hope and comfort. What are you going to give her in return?” Ingersoll was pale and quiet for a moment, and then, throwing himself bao- in the Heat, said; “Colfax, let us t k polil \ — - — ===== I SDR.

Dr. Arlington has something new and effective for the treatment of catarrh. The Keeley jag cure institute nt Goshen has closed down for lack of business. If you wish to rid your cellar of rats says an exchange, sprinkle red pepper on the floor just at the holes. The rat comes out, steps on the pepper, chums his feet, with his tongue, and leaves your house never to return. The poor quality of the postage stamps causes an exchange to make this suggestion: Don’t, lick the mucilage on the postage stamp, but moisten the corner of the envelope instead. I’his is a good rule to follow whether the quality of the stamps is up to the standard or not. An exchange says: “If a doctor makes a mistake, he buries it; if a merchant makes a mistake he never tells of it; if a lawyer makes a mistake he crawls out of it; but If an editor makes a mistake be puts it on a sheet of paper for the world to look at and in every community there are cranks who think they me models of wisdom because they occasionally discover them. I he Indianapolis News tells a story on one of the representatives who was a* candidate for Speaker. Tuesday, after he had been in the swirl of the lobby for several hours, he suddenly found himself standing before a large mirror in (he hotel corridor. He reached out a hand to shake the man who appeared to be standing in front of him, ami as he did so, said: “How do you do, sir; your face is familiar, but I can not place you.” About the time he finished the salutation bis hand touched the minor. Scientists are still unable to account for the “brown snow” which fell in nearly all parts of Indiana early Sat day morning. Many theories have been advanced, but none seems to be satisfactory. It was at first believed that the sediment was carried from the prairies of Illinois, but no one will believe that particles of earth could be so evenly distributed. It seems cer tain that tin* brown substance fell from the heavens. Persons who were out at 3 p. m declare the sky was clear of clouds when the substance fell. Some of the scientists believe the dust fell from the stars. The strange oc cmieuce has set the superstitious to thinking, and some of them are pre dieting that a great calamity to man kind w ill follow.—Goshen News. An exchange says you often want to know what constitutes a carload. Well, paste this in your hat and you will find an answer handy. Normally, a carload is 20,000 pounds. It. is also seventy-nine barrelsof salt, ninety nine of flour, ten cords of wood, eighteen to twenty head of cattle, fifty to sixty hogs, ninety to one hundred head of sheep, 6,000 feet of boards, 17,000 feet of siding, 13.000 feet of flooring, 42, 000 shingles, one-half less of hard I lumber, one tenth less of joists,scantj ling and other large limbers, 340 ; bushels of corn, 400 bushels of wheat, 580 bushels of oats, 156 of ilax seed, 2GO of apples, 310 of Irish potatoes and 1,000 of bran. The Toledo Weekly Blade. Os the now nearly twenty thousand regular publications in the United States, there are but two or three weekly newspapers published for general circulation in every state and territory, and of these the Toledo Blade is the best and most popular of them all. It is the oldest, best known, and has the largest circulation. For more than twenty five years it has been a regular visitor to every portion of the Union, and it is well known at every one of tbe sixty thousand odd postoffices of the country. It is made es for r.onily reading. It gives the entire news of tho world each | week, in such condensed form as will : save reading scores of pages of daily i papers to get less information. Re ' I publican in politics, Temperance m j principle, always on the side? of justice and right, it is just the paper for the rising generation, and a great educator for the whole family. Serial ' stories, wit and humor, short stories, household department,question bureau, farm department, camp lire, Sunday < school and young folks are a few of the many other prominent features of this great paper. A specimen copy will be mailed free to any address on application, ami the publishers invite | any person to send in a long list of ad- ! dresses to whom they will mail sum j pie copies. They would be glad to j mail a couple of hundred specimens to , readers of this county, The Weekly i Blade is a very large paper, and the | price is only one dollar a year. AdI dress THE BLADE, Toledo Ohio. By special clubbing arrangements we are enabled to furnish the Walkerton Independent and the Toledo Blade one year for $1.75.

PICKED UP. Tho less a man talks the move time he has to think. A waste of time is about as bad as a ' waste of money. Ambition makes more sleepless nights than insomnia. Don’t contradict people even if you are sure you are right. Abuse a man unjustly anil you will make friends for him. It is bard to be grateful to the man who fights your buttles for you, ami gets licked. Every married man with a bundle or a baby m his arms, is a sort of warning to young men. The trouble with a church raffle is that when a man wins anything, the girls beg it away from him. The many occupations that are opened to woman wjll make it more difficult for a worthless man to get a wife. The man who uses a falsehood for [rolicy, like the woman who powders, soon gets into the habit of putting on too much. The woman never lived who didn’t! have a silent unknown rival in her I husband’s youthful ideal of what a wile should Ire. »!! ■ nw l — < — n- ■ Joe Clark, located next door to the express office, will make you a neat pair of shoes that will lit your feel perfectly at about the same price that you would pay for a ready-made pair.
