Auburn (Ind.) Dispatch: ‘‘J. I. De

his father, iVm. Depew, in Jackson
township, and other relatives. Mr. De
pew is a leading citizen and mayor of
his home city. He is now engaged in
making the preliminary arrangements
for putting on the market an invention
of his, consisting of a machine which
will tighten or set tires on the wheel
without heating or removing the tire
from the wheel. He has used it in his
shop for two years, where it has proven
a success in every particular. At first
the machine was nut strong enough to
set 3-inch tires in this manner, but he
has now so streligtbened it that this is
done successfully. By the use of the
machine much time is saved, as by act
ual count of minutes he Iihs set the four
tires of a buggy in ten minutes. No
doubt he will find ready sale for the
machines and we hope it will make him
a little fortune.

course Sunday morning, and elicited
much favorable comment from a critic
al audience, and we believe will prove a
worty successor to Itey. Madelv. He is
a comparatively young man, but shows
good oratorical ability, coupled with in
tense earnestness that augurs well for
his future ministry in Loud City. We
were very favorably impressed w'ith the
gentleman in the pulpit, and believe
that impression will be angmented by
a personal acquaintance, with which
we have not so far been favored.

the Round Oak '

plenty of testimonials as to
its superiority. In its new,
up-to-date dress it is the
handsomest stove on the
market, and in tight fitting,
fine workmanship and “busi

not mistake other stoves for
the genuine. Look for the
name on the leg, “ROUND

have always heard about.
We will be pleased to explain
