Fashionable FooIishneSs.

There is no modern fashionable no.
tion quite so absurd as the generally
received idea that to be beautiful and
attractive woman must possess a wan,
spirituele face and and figure of sylf
like proportions-a fragility in nine
cases cut of ten the result of disease.
By many fashionable bellies it is con-
sidered special compliment to be
spoken of as frail ,,and delicate. They
forget that the naturally delicate face
and petite figure are very different
from the pale and stricken IA
ces that meet US in the city thorough
fares, look cut from the luxuriant car
riages of wealth, and glide Ianguidly
through our crowded drawing-rooms.
If disease were questionable, as it
ought to be, not lady in the land
but woui,. lake every possible pgecau-
tioa t. secure the fresh blooming face
and wcll-rounaed figure that only
health can give. Ladies should ro-
member that much as gentlemen may
profess to admire the face and form
paled and emaaiated by disease, when
they chooso u wife tney prefer "a
blooming, buoyant-spirited woman.
DR.. Pierces Fayorite Prescription is
the Acknowledged standard remedy
for female diseases and weaknesses.
It has the two-fold advantage Of cur
ing the local disease ard imparting a
vigorous tone to tho whole system.

4 DriGht Outlook.
MANY MILES OF sTEEI. RAILS TO BE
LAID DURING THIS YEAR.

st. Louis corr. Cincinnati Enqairer.
"If q railroad wants to buy steel
rails, said Oliver Garrison, brother
of Com modore Garrison and tie Vice
President Of tho, Missouri Pacific
Railroad, they'll have to pay for
them after this
"Why?' l asked.
"Becsuse, sir, tho price is going up.
We want four hundred tons of rails
now to lay III Missouri and to e1-
tend the Missouri Pacific cut through
Kansas, and we cant find them.
I've written to half the steel rail
mills in the United States, and they
are not to be had"
What causes this scarcity p
so many new railroads being
built. l tell you that the railroad
fever has started again. Tw elvo
thousand miles CT new railroads
are in sight now-to be built next
sumner--end eight thousand milos Of
new steel rails in one year will ex-
haust the supply"
"What new railroads are to be
built?"
"Well, We are going to build our
Missouri Pacific cut through Kansas
south of and parallel to the Atchison,
Topeka and Santa Fe road. We
shall lay our track from forty to six
ty miles south Of tbs Atchlson, Toe
ka and SAINT, Fe read, and run it
clear through to Albuquerque (Al-be-
kerk,) in New Mexico. Then the
Santa Fe people are building toward
Leadville in Colorado, and down into
New Mexico; the Southern Pacific
psople are building west aud south Of
Fort Yuma a mile day Abort
Pierce has gone down to San An
tonic to commence building his
Galveston and San Antonio road
from San Antonio west to the Rio
Graude, where he viii meet the
Southern Pacific people; the North
ern Pacific people are pillng up their
steel rails on the west bank Of the
Missouri at Bismarck, ready to lay
tic track to tho Ye lowstono with the
first grass; the Canadian Pacific peo-
pie are blasting through from Winni-
peg in Manitoba, and piling up steel
rails at Fort William and Winnipeg
to connect with Thunder Bay, on
Lake Superior, in the spring the ST.
Louis, Kansas City and Northern
goal will pass through from Chilli
cothe and Gallatin TO Council Bluffs
the Utah Southern will be built $50
miles south, and the Utah Northern
$50 miles north from Fort Hall, to-
ward Virginia City aad Helena, max
ilg continuous north and south line
right in the centre of the continent,
over 700 miles long Besides these,
arc dozens of other little roads all
over tho country, which you know
are always being built. .
"Then railroad and iron interests
look prosperous just now?'
Every. Never in ten years, has
the future and present looked 50 bright
as now for these interests.

The report as above given, was presented
to the council, but was not adopted by that
body, an order to spread 1t upon the records
being made, From this action it appeared
that the council wanted to get rid Of the
dirty job as quickly as possible, and With
committing itself regarding it's details.
There was associated with Mr.. Pe,tigrew
upon this committee work, Mr.. Valentine
and Mr.. Day. The former assisted in the
Of a portion of the report, and
was generally acquainted with the nature Of
its contents. He has admitted to us that it
did not exactly accord with his views.
Still, he signed. After the report was
signed, it was interlined by Mr.. Pe.tigrew,
or some one who writes his hand, and a stric-
ture against the public printers made to
appear as a part OF the report as agreed to
by Mr.. Valentine, when in fact he did not
so agree. Mr.. Day, the other member of the
assures US that he did not read
the report, and did not know its contents,
except in a general way. He says he signed
it, and of course agrees to it. 1t thus ap-
pears that the report was dictated and large
ly made up by MI. Pettigrew that Mr..
Valentine signed it rather under protest,
and was then made to say some things be did
intend to say by an after in,erlineation /;
that Mr.. Day did not know the contents, but
signed it upon the broad principle that re-
publican officials and printers should be de.
famed, and that Pettigrew was the man to
do 1t. I'VE draw this inference from the

as evidence. The revised codes of Dakota are
printed in small plea, and any man who is
enough of a printer to figure upon o Job OF
work would detect the fact at a glance and
would not be guilty of SO objectionable an
error as to write il down as plea. Figures
made upon the basis of plea as the body
type of the book would be no sort of a guide
for q comparative estimate in the discus
sion of this subject. The codes. as printed,
make a book of nearly one thousand pages.
A book of this size printed 10 plea type
would make less than seven hundred pages
when printed in small plea. The reader
will readily see that there would be a large
difference betweenthe cost of printing a book
of seven hundred pages and a book Of one
thousand psges. Whichever horn Of the
dilemma..Mr. Pettigrew may take he will be
compelled to admit that the bid he has 40
extensively paraded is based upon a false
proposition. If las We. strongly suspect) he
sent to St. Paul some other book than the
code as a basis for an estimate, then.the esti-
mate should be entitled to no weight. Ifhc
really sent the revised eide (which we do
not suspect) and the figures we're made upon
the supposition that the sample was printed
in plea, them the estimate is a stupid bunder
throughout. Upon the evidence Of this
letter we charge that the figures are a false
presentation Of the value Of the work. Mr.
Pettigrew received estimates from several
other printing houses. Why did he pro.
duce only the bogus one sent in by the St.
Paul establishment? Why did he not, IL
