looking printers, was in the city last
Saturday.

tice of the Peace at Argos, was on
our streets last Monday.
Chas. Andrews, one Of the sturdy
tillers of the soil OF this county, came
in hurriedly Thursday morning, paid
for his paper, and departed in peace.
He is a printer, has been in the
newspaper business many years,
knows what a good paper is, can't
keep house without the REPUBLICAN,
so came in last Saturday night and
enrolled as a subscribers. A. T. Met
calf is the chap we are speaking of.
Adam Rinehart, OF West township,
who read the first number OF the first
paper ever published in Marshall
county, and who has never missed a
number from that day to this, came
in Friday and renewed for another
year. Adam is happy and prosperous,
owns one of the best farms in Mar
shall county, and feels that the money
invested in his county paper has al
ways returned to him hundred fold.

his own paper.
Mrs. Emma Speicher, of North
township, came in Saturday and paid
for her paper. She says she never
takes any interest in the discussion
Of political questions, but then you
know she gets more news and solid
literary reading, and general informa-
ton, In the REPUBLICAN than she
would in half dozen Of the o-called
literary papers.
A playmate OF our boyhood, Uriah
Frush, Of Pleasantville. Iowa, sends
us dollar, and says. at have seen a
copy Of your paper and concluded to
become a subscriber. I don't like Its
politics, but as I think the Republican
party will not live long. and the paper
is newsy and well gotten up, guess
I can swallow the political part for
six months, so send on your paper"
or course we'll send it, and shall not
be surprised IL twenty years from now
Uriah, like almost everybody else, is
voting the Republican ticket.
Rev. F. H. Mckee. formerly of Ar
COS, now Of Logansport, shows that
he desires to keep posted by sending
the money necessary to enable him
to become a subscriber to the Re-
PUBLICAN. We are glad to know that
ministers of the gospel generally are
acquainting themselves with the news
OF the day, and the fundamental
principles OF government. 1t is GER
tainly not sin for them to know as
much as other people.
Just before going to press we re-
ceived pleasant call from the genial
Postmaster Of Maxenkuckee. Come

Than common friendship intertwines
And deep DER mastering surprise,
With our love and grief combine.
All selfish grief that counts our loss
Forgetting that now darkened home;
Dear friends beneath thy sudden cross,
IT'S God that smites, and he alone.
For you shall be my thoughts and prayers,
For you the meanings of my lips;
God help those pare nts in their tears;
Lot not their grief thy love eclipse.
Fond, fearful, weeping eyes through faith
Behold thy child forever lives;

Which Christ 10 his dear ones gives.
Lookup and read again thy loss,
Through what to thee, and us remains
His name, his work, shall gid thy Cross
And change to trusting faith, thy pains.

Which from thy child, the now divides;
At Gods great rising of the just,
We shall stand with him, side by side.

there should be those who Will take steps
for which they will be sorry. They argue
from this that il is not best TO have any
excitement at all, aud especially that
nothing should be done under excite
ment. II so happens, however, that the
path Of progress has always been marked
by sudden steps upward and onward.

There are communities that would never

stolid, immobile condition which nothing
but public excitement can break up.
This condition may relate to a single sub.

to temperance, or church debt. Now
II Is quite possible that man under ex-

known TO be right, and be sorry for IL or

have started him on the right path, Or led

mR. HHYANT's PERSONALITY.

Mr.. Bryant was a poet who could take
care Of himself and get a living. lie
could not only do this, but he could do a
wise aud manly part In guiding the poll.
ties Of the country, He could not only
manage his own private and family affairs
in a prosperous way, but he could dis.
charge his duties as citizen and q mem.
Der Of society. In bis own personal char
actcr aud history he associated probty
with genius, purity with art, and tho
sweetest Christianity with the highcst
culture. He has proved to all theyoung.
er generation OF poets that Mysteries are
not inspiration, that improydeuee Is not
an unerring sign of genius, that Christian
conviction and Christian character are
notindicatons Of weakness but are rather
a measure Of strength, and that man
may be poet and apoet man. So much
OF certain sort of eceentricily has been
associated with the poetic temperament
and with poetic pursuity, that In some
and homely virtues is supposed to inyali-
date all claims TO genius. II Mr.. Bryanps
life had accomplished nothing more than
to prove the falsity Of this wretched no
ton, il would have been fruitful one.
II certainly is TO be hoped that the
world Is OUTLYING the fancy that man
In order TO be a great poet must be ex.
ceptionally an ass in every other depart
ment Of life aud effort, that he must DO
an inddel in the realm of religion, a
spendthrilt IN bis habits, an unsafe man
with women, wine-bbber at his table,
and man whose butcher and tailor are
sufferers by whatsoever sums they may
trust 10 him, Let us be thankful that
Mr. Bryant has made il cminently proper
for genius TO be respectable and well be-
haved, aud that laziness aud improve
dence and RIGHTEOUSNESS can never quote
bis example among their excuses. At
time when :eeblemen with poetic streak
in them running through worthless ma.
ture and character are striving to attract
attention, and when irreligion and Inn
morality are determined to assert re.
spectacle place for themselves In tho
worlds regard, the celebration of Mr..
BryaDps virtues, even though II be held
above his grave, comes like benign re
proof and sweet benediction to his
conntrymen. - From DIR. Hollands Top

There i a great change from the aus
terilY Of former times regarding the

that need The great danger OF ycge-
tables and fruit is that decay may taint
item, or too great age render them
tough aud iusoluble, in which case they
become a poisonous obstruction to the
digestive system, rather than food.
Complaints Of digestion in summer
arise almost entirely from two causes
The person has been exposed 10 draught
of air which has closed the pores of the
skin and turned al the waste matter OF
the body (arge portions Of which nor-
malIy escape in unconscious prespra-
lions) back into the central sewer Of the
system, or else the bowels have become
elogged with excess OF food or with some
thing in decay or indigestible In either
case the digestive system Immediately
deuges itself with secretions, In order to
wash away the offending matter, This
diarrhGa, as il is called, so far from being
checked, should often be encouraged un-
ill the occasion for it is removed. Due
attention to the simple modes of treat
ment suggested by this explanation
might save long periods OF running down,
which adults suffer at this season and the
lives Of many children who annually pie.
Our medical societies could not do bet
ter thing than TO print upon a card plain

children SO attacked, for distribution
among the poorer classes, Perhaps il is
unnecessary so long as they have the city

Some Of our contemporaries raise a
elamor against ice water, but we very
rarely hear of an injury from its use. OF
course, it should be drunk with modera-
tion, but swallow or two is all that
most men care 10 drink at once. Like
hot tea, the extremity of temperature is a
sufficient guard against immoderate
draughts.
There is great increasing consump.
ton of milk, we think, and bread aud
milk is quite fashionable evening meal.
MIX, however, doesn't agree with every
body, and with quite young children is
most treacherous diet.
