! the ''North Iowa girls =
"North Iowa girls need not use pear
! powder, rOugeO or crimson silk. Our girls ar,
industrious as bees. Pure prairie air ant
plenty Of it is what does the business. W.
don't feel like Dragging particularly, bu
we do certainly think that North Iowa ha
: as many rosy-cheeked, healthy, handsome
looking girls as any portion OF this LITTLE
world. # any country can do better w
would like to know it,
Come down, Mr.. Felt, and attend oul
State Fair, and we will show you some
+" rosy checked and handsome looking
girls in this locality. We don't bras
much, but we think Burlington can bea
the world In good looking girls.
The Dubuque Times says that 'the Dress
Reform excitement runs quite high in Keo'

The Muscatine Daily Journal has again

during the week. A large amount has
changed hands within few days, and

THE SANITARY FA1R-FACILIrIEs FOR
VISITING IT.-Ample arrangements have
been made by those having the matter in
charge by which people within several
hundred miles of Dubuque can visit the
Fair with economy, both as to expense and
time. We refer especially to the fact that
the d. & s. C. r. r. will run q special train
during the whole week Of the Fair, the
time for leaving each station being noted
in q table in another column.
It will be seen that visitors can leave Ce- |
dar Falls at o'clock A. NJ, and arrive at
Dubuque at noon and return on the half |
fare tickets any time during the week, |
vivNR NH o.
at Cedar Falls ut 8 o'clock in the evening"
This will be the most interesting occasion |
that Dubuque ever presented to the public \
in addition to the patriotic and commenda-
bic object in view.
We hope and expect to see hundreds
Of people from counties at least as far west
as the Des MOines river, and we believe
that any farmer or other citizen who visits
Dubuque at that time, with his family, will
never regret it.
The Fair commences on Monday. June
10Th. and will end on Saturday, the 18th.
In order that the public may know the
extent OF the preparations by this road. we

Of the 18th, in the valleys in Muscatine
