THREE ELKHART BUSINESS MEN Who Make Advertising Pay and are Rolling in Wealth. Three Elkhart men have each built up an immense business —H. E. BuckJen, the manufacturer of King's Discovery and other medical specialties; Dr. Miles, proprietor of the nerve and heart remedies, and J. I’. Primley, the chewing gum fiend. Bneklen has be come a millionaire, and the other two are on a fairway to gain that financial point. The fotmer has for a long time advertised his medicines all over the country. Dr. Miles, at the head of a corporation, has advertised extensively for some years, and has now decided to cover the West clear to the Pacific coast with his advei tisements, while Primley has for some time carrieil r,,u mi»-<•«♦tim* merits In leading magazines and is about to open an Eastern office in addition to the one in Chicago, Verily, advestising pays.—Goshen Times. A Critique From The Wild West. Paganini was undoubtedly the greatest violinist that ever lived, if half what the critics of his day wrote about him is true. His technique was the purest chro matic roulades, his wonderfully clear intonation, including even humorous bizarreries, excited the astonishment even of people who manufactured bizarreries and knew all about them. They sounded at a distance like a grand frog concert, or feebly put in words: Kung demung—kung tung, Koo de kung, to koo; Titteri, titteri, mong, koboo, Bung de kung—kick a koo Diggany kum, de kum de boo, Titteri te kung de koo. His broken accords across all four strings, from the lowest depths to the giddiest heights, could not be distinguished from the noise made by a frecEled-faced boy runnings stick along a picket fence. His rapid octave playing of the B string, with the bridge down, his silvery chime of bells, his robusto cres ceudo fortissimo, followed immediately by the sweetest, most charming pian* issimo, can only be compared to the voice of a woman who is paddling her wayward offspring for tearing his pants, and suddenly changes when she hears the voice of her pastor at the door asking if she is at home. All this was inconprehensible, incon ceivable, and therefore indesci iable. And yet Paganini was allowed to die a natural death. He was not even shot at. —Texas Siftings. When To Be Gentlemen. One very frequently hears a remark made that such and such a man “can be a gentleman when he pleases.” Now, when our reader next hears this expression made use of, let him call to mind the following: He who can be a gentleman when he pleases never pleases to be anything else. Circumstances may and do, every day in life, throw men of cultivated minds and refined habits into the society of their inferiors; but while, with the tact and readiness that is their especial prerogative, they make themselves welcome among those with whom they have few, if any, sympathies in common, yet never by any accident do they derogate from that high standard which makes I them gentlemen. So on the other hand, । the mau of vulgar tastes and coarse ■ propensities may simulate, if he be able, the outward habitudes of society, speaking with practised intonation, and bowing with well-studied grace; yet he is no more a gentleman in his thoughts and feeling than is the tinselled actor who struts the boards the monarch his costume would bespeak him. This being the “gentleman when he likes,” is but the mere performance of the character. It has all the swell of the stage and footlights about it, and never can for a moment be mistaken by one who knows the world. A cloak too large cannot be gracefully worn by a small man.—Ex. It Is Expensive To experiment with all advertised remedies at §I.OO per bottle. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin, that great remedy for constipation, indigestion etc., is now put out in 10c bottles (It speaks for itself as well in a small as in a large quantity.) Try a 10c bottle (10 doses lOcts) at Bellinger & Williams’. A neat canopy top buggy of the Studebaker make, brand new, will be sold at a sacrifice. Call at the Inde?£NDENT Office.

Dan Beall planted an acre of alfalfa clover this spring and the crop is flourishing. Eight weeks growth has developed the stalks to over a foot in heighth. The crop was planted in marsh ground. Three crops a year of alfalfa can be raised. It, is a very profitable crop to cultivate where theconditions are favorable. The News says that the initial steps have been taken towards securing a system of fire protection for Liberty. Just, what kind of protection will be adopted is yet undecided, but that the town will have some effective means for fighting fire in the near future seems quite probable. North Liberty is showing snap. The Independent office is well equipped for all kinds of job work. Wehave a nice variety of type to give work a neat and tasty appearance.

Cattle Thieves in Marshall County!' South Bend Tribune: Fred Len^U, the Miunlhill county imui arrested week on suspicion of having stole® th reo eat tie which ho offered for siA here, was released Saturday, nooueaM pouring to enter a complaint agnmul him or to claim Iho cattle. This mofnA ing, however, the owners of the atoaH appeared at the police station, furnish® ed proof of their ownership and were® given possession of the pmpeify. I One is a farmer near Tyner City, Ed^ win Monroe, the other Frank Johnson,® residing at TVegurden. They state thaO Lemen belongs to a gang of thieves® who have been committing a grew*® many depredations in the northern® part of Marshall county. The mime.o* | >»>—• a- «... by Leui*’ 1 as • the owner of the cattle, is really nmein- ' her of the gang, and that is the reason * of the delay in getting replies to word | sent to Teagarden from here after the I capture of the thief. Lemen after his release went directly back to Teegnr- j den and slept in his father’s barn Sat- ! urday night. The Marshall county I authorities were notified of the theft ‘ and of the release of Lemen, but they | were a little too slow, so Lennen skipped out Sunday and got away. Nicholson Law Squibs There is a movement on fool among the laboring men at Michigan City to celebrate the different holidays on the day following, thus evading the Nicholson law. To avoid conflict, with the Nicholson liquor law Um Turners, a puwerfiil German organization nt S-mth Berni, have ordered 300 keys fur members with which to gain entrance to their building or grounds on Sundays. At Michigan City, Charles J. Then nes, proprietor of the Vreeland hotel, was arrested for violating the Nicholson lew, it being alleged that as the entrance to the bar room of the hotel is on an alley the Imsiness cmihl not Ite operated under the provisions of the , , Nicholson law. The defense asserts that an alley is a public highwnv, amt consequently Theunes is not unlawfully conducting his business. The very latest in circumvent ing the Nicholson lull is being worked in Anderson with success Fourth of Joly and last Sunday and every night after II o’clock watermelons were and are being sold at <1 apiece. They contain a pint of the very best whisky made. A slice has been made in the melon, a place grooved out huge enough for the bottle ami then the piece is put back with the bottle inside. The cut place is lined with wax and the melon 1 turned over. It looks perfectly legit imate and no kick is made. Let Moderation Prevail We hope there will be no repetition of the temperance crusades under the Nicholson law. When the Baxter law was in effect along in the 70's, bunds of praying women visited the saloons and made sorry exhibitions of themselves. No good results followed and the Baxter law was promptly repealed. The temperance crusades made the law odious. It appears that the ultra temperance fanatics in some localities are enlisting the Sunday school childien in the temperance crusades. This is®Hy and will end in a farce. There be a respectful observance of fhc'^ 0 ’ 1olson law because it is law and’Jjßeiy good citizen is obligated to .®berve law, but that does not imply Ilia* women and children should be culled up on to assist in its enforcement. The legally constituted authorities can look after that. —Logansport Pharos. A Cure for Heart Worms in Corn. Mishawaka Enterprise.? Elom Eller asserts that if farmers will sow buckwheat on their corn land, it will kill the heart worms which are so troublesome, and destructive. Another pointer for farmers in this direction is the statement, that a kernel | of buckwheat planted with potatoes will i keep the potato bugs away. j A little kerosene mixed with corn i when planting is also said to boa sure preventive of worms and other pests. It will pay farmers to remember ami try these remedies, ami it tlmv prove useful, publish the fact for the benefit of others. An all leather net, at <2 a pair at' Ake’s.

Ji I Full oft with starch and gloss serene, * The linen collar starts the morn; Full oft at noontime it is seen i All wilted, wrinkled and forlorn. That’s what you must expect of such a collar; it’s the linen of it. The stand-up collars won’t stand up, and the turn-down collars will wilt down. The easy, cheap, and pleasant way out of this is to wear “ Celluloid ” Collars and Cuffs. These goods are made by covering linen collars or cuffs on both sides with “Celluloid,” thus making them strong and durable, and waterproof, not affected by heat or moisture. There are no other waterproof goods made this way, consequently none that can wear so well. When soiled simply wipe them off with a wet cloth. Every piece of the genuine is stamped like this : 11 TRADf k j3p£LLui.Olo MARK’ A Insist upon goods so marked if you expect full satisfaction, and if your dealer doesnot keep them, send direct to us enclosing amount and we will mail sample.
