STEUBEN CAN ANGOLA, INDIANA, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 21, 1904. KEPUBLI HELMER NEWS. To Help the Saloon Business. Angola Bank, ANTA Poplar, Practical Christmas (lift HEADQUARTERS AT Jackson's Store Is where you can get anything you want. The cheapest place in the state to buy toys.

Everything onethird to one-half off Our goods have just come in, so ther are not all picked over. If every one in the county knew how cheap we will sell, our goods wouldn't last a week. Kentucky Letter. Liberty, Dec. 12, 19 04.

Editor Republican: You will see by the beading of this that we hare moved and wish our old friend, the Republican, to follow us. We have been here one week and like it very much. Liberty is a town of about 1,000 people ard is located on the Green river about forty miles northeast of the old battle field at Green River Bridge, Perhaps some of our old veterans of Steuben will remember it, as it was at this place they met Morgan's band of raiders. Our town lies in a rich valley. We have four churches, two good hotels, fifteen stores, good schools and one of the finest Court Houses in tbe state.

We have had no cold weather yet but have had some warm showers of late that make the wheat fields and pastures look like spring again. We are now in the Blue Grass belt and while out quail hunting the other day I saw my first field of Blue grass. Thera is not so much old was's land in this county, (Cosy) as in Taylor county and the ridge lands are not so rolling and on account of being so far from the railroad land is much cheaper and there is more timber. We are seventeen miles from the railroad but with pike roads it does not seem any farther than Metz is from Angola. We have two mail routes here dally, Or Organ At a meeting of the State L'quor Dea'- ers of Oaia at Wirthwein's Hall, Columbus, one of the delegates in the course cf a speech on "How to Up the Saloon Business," gave the fol lowing suggestions: "The Success of our business is de pendent largely upon the creation of appetite for drink.

Men who drink liquor like others, will die, and if there is no new appetite created our counters will te empty as will be our coffers. uar cnuaren whi go Hungry, or we must change our business to that of some other mora remunerative. The open field for the creation of ap petite is among trie dots. Alter men have grown and their habits are formed they rarely ever change in this regard. It will be needful, therefore, that mis sionary work be done among tie boys, -and I make the suggestion, gentlemen.

that nickles expended in treats to the ooys now will return in dollars to our after the appetit9 has been formed. Above all things Create appetite. A Thousand Dollar's Worth of Good. A. H.

Thurnes, a well known coal operator of Buffalo, writes, "I have been afflicted with kidney and bladder trouble for years, passing gravel or stones with excruciating pain. I got no relief from medicines until I began taking Foley's Kidney Cure, then the result was surprising. A few doses start ed tbe brics dust like fine stones and now I have no pain arcoss my kidneys and I feel like a new man. It has done me a 11000 worth of good." H. Kratz.

The Approach of Death, The approach of death is described by Otto Pollock of Cleveland, who while bleeding to death, told of his sensations to the end. When he arose from his bed on the morning before he died, to go to work, he began to cough and a hemorrhage resulted. He called his wife and seven children around him His neighbors and friends were sum moned, as were physicians. As he lay on the bed, his life's blood ebbing away he talked. First to his wife and an intimate friend and fel'ow-worker, Albert Lubahu, he gave instructions regarding his funeral.

"I can feel my life slipping away," and he whispered. "Drop by drop as the blood falls, I can feel my strength going. 1 feel no pain. This bleeding is an easy death. I can hardly see you.

1 feel as if I were going to sleep. It is a little dark now. I can't see any one. I can feel each second that I am dropping out of life. I now see a great light, but cannot distinguish anything." A few more incoherent whispers and Pollock sunk into unconscious.

The Secret of Success. Forty million bottles of August Flow er sold in the United States alone since its introduction! And the demand for it is still growing. Isn't that a fine showing of success? Don't it prove that August Flower has had unfailing success in the cure of indigestion and dyspepsia the two greatest enemies of health and happiness? Does it not afford the best evidence that August Fiower is a sure specific for all stomach nd intestinal disorders? that it has proved itself the best of all liver regulators? August Flower has a matchless record of over thirty-five years in cur ing the ailing millions of these distress ing complaints a success that is becoming wider in its scope every day, at home and abroad, as the fame of Au gust Flower spreads.

Kratz. Don't. Don't attempt to gain time by steal ing it from sleepy Don't try to get the last word when talking with a woman. Don't think that pestilence kills more fools than cigaretts. Don't think your sins won't call again If they find you out.

Don't think because a man is a poet he can't appreciate lobster salad. Don't try to make a man eat his words. Some men would rather fight than eat. Don't you believe that It's hard to be poor. It's the easiest thing in the world Don't think because a man is a millionaire that he suffers less with the tooth ache than a poor man.
