Less than three weeks remains be
fore Christmas. The merchants, in an
ticipation of big business, have provided
themselves with very largo stocks of
goods. The rush during the two weeks
mmediately preceding the holidays will
be unprecedented. Therefore, In ordajr
to avoid the annoyance Incident thereto,
wise buyers will proceed to make their
purchases early, when the stocks are un
broken and the clerks have more time to
devote to their customers. The argu
ments In favor of earlv niirnhases am mn
apparent that the chance are a large pro
portion of them will be made before the
linal rush.
For some time there have been no
final papers of naturalization granted in
Forest county on account of the new law
passed by the last Congress. Hereafter
the system of naturalization will be uni
form throughout the United States. In
many particulars the procedure does nut
vary from what has been in effect in this
judicial district for many years. The ap
plicant, or alien, must reside in this
country five years before he can present
his petition for naturalization, lie must
also file bis declaration of allegiance two
years prior to presenting the final peti
tion. It Is necessary that the applloanl
be able to speak the English language.
Heretofore an alien could go before any
judge in the State and make application
for citizenship, now It is specified that
final papers must be filed at least nine
weeks before the sitting of court, and the
first applications for naturalization under
the new law will be acted upon at the
February torui of court.

been hit five times with Winchester rifle
balls. The present snow is affording
bear hunters excellent opportunities for
pursuing their favorite sport, and the

some control over the ruptured triceps
muscles and can move bis upper arm
considerably. The elbow Joint Is still
stiff but that will come right as. the
wound heals and the inflammation dis
appears, Tbe granulations are perfect
and there Is no reason why he should not
recover the full use of bis arm. This in,

No town will become a good business
centre so long as Its business men rely
on a few merchants to make tbe effort to
bring trade to town, says the Brock way
ville Record. Too often tbe men in i
few Hues of trade are about the only ones
that go out after custom. Other merch
ants will wait until these men induce the
people to come to town and content them
selves with trade that naturally drifts to
their place. A public-spirited man
should ask himself if he is doing his
part to attract people to come to
town to trade in helping tbe entire busi,
nesa community, and no town is a suc
cess unless all lines are working to ex
tend the trade as far as possible and try,
ing to bring a larger territory In tbe clr
cle In which the town is the business
centre.

To send a card asking for our catalog,
setting forth the advantages enjoyed by
the students who attend Tbe State Nor
mal at Indiana, and it may be the turning
point in the life of your son or daughter.
An education obtained In a good normal
school fits for life and business, as do
other schools, but Its diploma has a pe
culiar legal value that should not be
overlooked; it makes Its possessor a le
gally qualified teacher in the State for
lire.
None of us can look very far into tbe
future. Your daughter may not neod to
leach now, aud may lay her normal di
ploma away, ueyor intending to use It.
But some disaster later In lite may make
it nocessary for ber to earn her living,
aud that diploma would prove her most
valuable possession. Is it not best to be
educated lu a school whoHe diploma has
such value?
The Indiana State Normal was fouudod
by the General Assembly in 1871; it is
one of the best known schools of its kind
lu the land, and the expense of attending
it is as low as can be found in any first
class institution of learning.
Our Winter Term will open January 1,
