Business for Ladies',

Our attention has been called to new
article for the use of ladies', the invention
Of which has conferred an everlasting bless
ing upon every lady. We refer to the
Queen City skirt suspenders for supporting
ladies' skirts, the most desirable and bene-
icial article ever invented for the relief of
women, many OF whom have suffered years
of miserable health caused solely by carry
ing the weight of a number Of skirts, CON-
pletely dragging them down. Something
to support ladies' clothing is absolutely
necessary. These suspcnders are recon-
mended by our leading physicians to al Ia
dies and young girls. Every lady should
have them. They are sold only through Ia
dy agens. A splendid opportunity is offer
ed to some reliable lady canyasser of this
county to secure the agency for pleasant
and profitable business. For terms and

What is "Tucking!"
Reno (Nev.) Gazette


A bothered looking citizen came into
the Gazette Office yesterday afternoon
and respectfully asked to be let look ut
the dictionary. He sat down and
rather anxiously thumbed Webster a
while.
"What word are you looking for?" ask
ed reporter, seeing that the stranger
had failed to strike the trail. E
"Well," said the man in burst of
confidence, "you see Pve only been
married n short time, and my wife's
gone up to Truckee on visit, and she's
written to me to look in the bottom of
her trunk for lot Of 'tucking' and send
it to her. Now, what want to know
what in blazes is 'tucking?' 1t amt in
the dictionary"
"Tucking?" said the reporter briskly,
"why, tucking is the stuff the girls make
by poking sort of short-turned fish
hook through hole and catching the
thread and drawing it back again."
Then the editor spoke up contemptu-
ously, and said that a man who was so
ignorant as that ought to hold his tongue.
What the reporter had described was
crocheting. Everybody ought to know
what tucking was. The ladies in maxi
ing it used little continuance shaped
like mussel, with thread wound up in
side of it. Tucking could be purchased,
he believed, for 10 or 10 cents yard,
and why intelligent girls should waste
whole day in making what they could
get for short bit was more than he
could understand. In answer to ques-
ton from the admiring reporter, the ed
itor said he had been told that tucking
was used in trimming the under-gar-
ments of the fair sex, but why things
should be ornamented which Il fellow
would get licked for trying to look at
or perhaps shot-was beyond his CON-
prehension.
The married stranger said the editor
was mistaken: that the article he men.
toned was not tucking-it was tatting.
This he knew for fact.
The editor observed that when a man
came to the Gazette office for information
the editor, when he gave it, didn't like
to be told he lied. If the stranger want
ed to avoid trouble he had better get out
and go to the devil. AS the editor had
grown red in the face and his eyes were
blazing the married stranger coughed
feebly and skunk down stairs.
In the mean time, what is tuckins?'

upon angry words passed, when Ever
man assaulted Brandon with : corn
knife, striking the retreating boy sew
eral strokes across the neck with it,
seyering the spinal column, and almost
severing his head from the body, caus-
ing instant death. This seems all to
have been enacted in the presence of
young Brandon's sister and some other
witnesses. Brandon's father ran to the
scene Of conflict Immediately, found
his boy . corpse, carries the body to the
house, mounted and came at ence to
Sullivan and swore out . warrant for
the arrest of Everman. Officers have
gone out with q posse to effect the ar
rest. but have not yet returned. Great
excitement prevails. This is the first
homicide committed in MoultIie coun-
ty for many years.

shore. A. they gazed, the bow Of the
last canoe was suddenly lifted into the
air as it struck a brown rock in the
channel, which the occupants tried in
vain to avoid. The fierce current caught
the stern, and in an instant there was
nothing left of the craft save broken frag-
ments, while the occupants, with loud
shrieks Of terror, were borne swiftly on
by the resislless tide. THAT ends them"
said Rip Ford. "Be careful. Sam, for
your life"
On, on, borne by the power which
they could not resist, the two canoes
were hurried. There was a scene of
wild exultation in the hearts of the
white men, for they could see that their
enemy would have gladly escaped il
they could from the perils that sur
rounded them. Their mad desire for
scalps and plumber had led them into
a trap, and they no longer thought of
the canoe in advance. They knew, az
the whites did not, the terrible danger
before them, for they had explored the
banks Of the stream on foot many times.
The river suddenly narrowed, and the
trappers rushed into q canon barely
twenty feet wide and nearly rooted over
by the cliff on each side. The current
was not quite SO rapid here, and they
guided the canoe easily.

The swift current caught them, and
the canoe, hurled forward with terri
BILE force, went flying toward the verge.
A moment more and it shot out into
the midst and went down into the I'M
known depths. Each man chung to his
paddle as he went down, held by an
invisible power, whirled to and fro, as
in a maelstrom, and then shot up into

The Indians,appalled by their danger,

the trappers never knew, for when they
reached the foot of the rapid, far below

made no pause, but hurried down the

Its sunshine and storms Of rain
Look not away in the distance,
On relics Of grief and pain:
Look up, dear friends, instead
Let the dead year bury its dead
What if our pride have suffered,
What if the hour Of need
Have shown that the friend we trusted
Was worse than broken reed
Look up, though our hearts have bled
Let the dead year bury its dead.
Let us count the abundant mercieS
Oar one great Friend has sent;
The days of our light and darkness
All gifts of one sweet intent.
No matter the tears We shed:
Let the year bury its dead.
All, youth has been taught stern lessons,
Aud we of maturer years
Have learned yet keener knowledge
Ofllfe's vain hopes and fears.
How surely Gods hand hath led
Let the dead year buryits dead.
And the newborn, wear shall find Us
Courageous, alert and strong;
Grit up for the strife before Us,
Though sharp the trial and long.
On, on with lim,r tread,
While the dead year buries Its dead.
