Female Beauty.

render themselves comedy by natural
means. Prizes are TO be given to those
who a move With ease and grace,
and SO furnish evidence of good health
and physical unconstrainmel t. some
thing of this kind Is needed here.
Although American women have, to a
great extent. seer the folly and the
uglinesS of lacing and going thinly clad
in cold weather, there are still those
who think an absurdly small waist
attractive. and any number that so
pinch their feet that they cannot walk
comfortable or becomingly. They do
these ridiculous things generally be
cause they imagine that men admire
them. Ii men have done so, they do
SO no longer. They prefer healthy and
graceful women to lnvall and awk-
ward ones, as all women must be who
cramp their waists, wear shoes too
small, or dress In IN way, to interfere
with their freedom and satisfaction.
Nature and Beauty are one. No wo-
man al be beautiful who letters or
hinders nature. The more nearly she
approaches the natural the closer she
comes to loneliness. Women have
heard this a thousand times. and ac-
cept 1t mentally. Yet in their blind
worship of false gods, they sacrifice
themselves to %intirnity and detormity.
1t is entirely incomprehensible to men
that SO many women will endure pain
and incur disease from a mistaken
notion of beauty. ". Y. Tunes.

COnjugal DiscOrds.

The Weaknesses and follies of VIC
men, are a theme on which men, from
the sage to the clown, have at all times
been eloquent. Her natural
in dress, her maternal vanity, her
devotion to the little elegancies of
the home, to clean windows an
fresh curtains, are IN i~nexhaustible
source of mlsculine merriment
and abuse. What housekecper ever
complained of IN aching back or
OF nervous irritation without being
scolded by her lord for some
extra WORK she has done in beautify-
ing the home? Men never seem to
learn that women as a rule cannot
find life endurable in the atmosphere
of dust and disorder which cha
racteriZes bachelor housekeeping. and
which seldom disturbs the eoua-
nimity of the masculine mind in the
least. Men and IN are SO different
must always be discord and unhappi-
ness in the household until the sexes
give over trying to change or remodel
those tastes and ways, and learn to
respect them. Men must accept as
inevitable the fact that women TO be
| happy must nave artistic, or at least
dainty and coy, environments: and
women must learn to preserve their
souls in quiet when men spill their
tobacco and ashes I'VE The CARPETS and
tables, for probably no man ever lived
who could fill a pipe, even from a
washtub, without scattering the to-
bacco over the premises.
That the sexes will give over irving
to reform each other does not seem
likely to happen very soon. Indeed.
one might BE- pardonei for believing
that matrimony is specially adapted to
develope all the imperfections and
WEAKNESSES OF human character. that
even of those matches that are made
in heaven the devil all the
subsequent conditions. There is hard
ly a pure and Innocent delight that
unmarried women enjoy which they
can carry into that blissful world
bounded by the marriage-ring. One of
those delights Is that of squandering a
little money, which is merely the
equivalent of mans spending it as he
likes, without accounting to n one.
Few wives can do this and not be sub
Jected to the humiliation of hearing tina
husband say, MY dear, are you not a
little ~extravagant! Is all the money
gone that gave you last week? {"

WHEN WE DEmoRALlzE THE sromAcl

WHEN WE DEM0RALlZE THE STOMACH
By excuses or imprudence In eating, we cannot
hope to escape the consequences for any great
length of time. The most robust digestion must
succumb to abuses Of that important function.
But supposing that we have been foolish enough
to enfeeble the stomach, is the damage irrepara.
BILE? BY no means. The dyspeptic has only to
do two things to insure his ultimate recovery.
First. he should adopt an easily digestible diet.
Second, he should use with regularity and per-
~sistence Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, the leading
gastric invigorant OF the age. The multiform
symptoms of dyspepsia, and the almost invarla-
bly, attendant disorders, biliOusness and cOnsti-
patton, will assuredly cease to prosecute the suf-
ferer il the above advice is attended to. Who
that has suffered the torments that chronic in
digestion inficts will neglect to take advantage
Of remedy which, If the most positive evidence
of the medical profession and the public is to be
received with due %credence, is an absolute spe-
ciflc for the complaint.

Tho BIDS for the Baildinss At spotted
Tail and Red Cloud A.encies.

The Bids for b Baildings At Spotted
Fail and Red Cloud Agencies.
The proposals for the erection Of . resi-
dence for the agent at Red Cloud agency, on
Wounded Knee creek, and for a residence
for the agent, a warehouse, stable, slaughter
house and cattle corral at Spotted Tail
agency, were opened at Bray 4 Fletcher's
Office last evening BY Gov. Bulls and T. N.
Bray. Proposals were received and opened
from the following persons:
Cation 4 Woolworth-For buildings At
Spotted Tail agency, $25,so2; At Red
Cloud, $7,169.
P. G. Olson Treader, of Elk Point-For
buildings at Spotted Tail, $24,25O; At Red
Cloud, $500. Since the opening Of the
bids a dispatch has been received from Mr..
Treader saying that he can not raise the
money to do the work, consequently his bid
will not be considered.
|. Edward Dwight, Sioux City-For build.
ings at Spotted Tail, 81, $50; At Red Cloud,
$3.50.
John Thornton, Yankton-For buildings
at Spotted Tail. $22,3oo; no bid for Red
Cloud.
Beggs & Kent, Elk Point-For buildings
at Spotted Tail, $s,62s.76; at Red Cloud,
$S,S65.l0. This bid is the lowest, and
would probably receive the award were il
not for the fact that Mr.. Beggs has tele-
graphed to the gentlemen in Yankton hav.
ing the matter in charge, that he is in no
wise associated with Mr.. Kent, and that
Kent had no authority to use his name in
making a bid.
This will dispose of the last bid, which
leaves Ed Dwight, of Sioux City, the lowest
bidder. Mr.. Dwight is an employee Of D.
T. Hedges.
