There can be no answer to this state

unlawful to refuse it. So it was in

twenty years in the peniteniiary for
refusing it, yet it became worthless

Wisconsin State Prison.

we'd from Warden Smith, slip sho W
ing the financial condition of the
State penitentiary for the fiscal year
ending Sept. 80, the figures being for
the Colonies private information, as
one of the Directors of the prison.
The statement shows the institution
to be entirely out of debt, with near
ly $4,000 cash on hand, and bal
ance of assets over liabilities of over
S27, 000-neasly $4,000 better than
last year. So admirable is the con-
dition of the prison that the Direc-
tors have concluded not to ask for
any legislative appropriation, the
coming year. Of the cash on hand,
$4,000 is invested in Government
four per cents. There has been ex.
pended for material and labor on the
north wing, 81, 900 during the year.

Business for Ladies.

Our attention has been called to new ar
ticle for the use of ladies, the invention OF
which has conferred an everlasting blessing
upon every lady. We refer to the Queen Ci-
~ skirt suspenders for supporting the ladies'
skirts, the most desirable and beneficial arti-
Gle ever invented for the relief of women,
many of whom have suffered years of misera-
Bile health caused solely by carrying the
weight of a number of heavy skirts, complete
ly dragging them down. Something to sup
port ladies' clothing is absolutely necessary
These suspenders are recommended by our
leading physicians to all ladies' and young
girls. Every lady should have them They
are sold only through lady agents splen-
did opportunity is offered to some reliable la
dy cauvasser of this county to secure the
agency of pleasant and profitable business.

TIP Til the time oftbe ron,

Up till the time of the remoEetiza-
ton of the silver dollar all silver dol
lars in circulation passed for 100
cents value. Then all dollars except
the remonetized dollars became cur.
rent only for 80 cents. Greenba
ers tell US it is lalo that makes the
now dollar pass for 100 cents. But
what law is it that reduced tb0 cur
rent value OF the other dollars is it
not the same law that will take eff.
feet Oh the new dollars when there
is superabundance of them among
the people The people are paying
100 GEMS per dollar for them. The
chances are that the present Con-
gressional law will remain in force
until there are one hundred million
of them ia circulation more than the
demands of trade have use fer. Then
when the laws of trade, which are as
effective against congressional law
as July sun against snow bank,
take effect, who will lose the ten to
fifteen per centum that it will cost
to retire the superabundant silver
Ii will be among the people. Who
ever has it will lose it.
