Business for Ladies.

The opportunities for ladies to find
employment that is both suitable and
remunerative are limited; their pay is
usually poor as compared with the salar-
les paid to men in same line of occupa
ton But there are some very noted
exceptions; journalism, the drama,
music and platform offer equal advantages
10 men and women, and there is one
occupation in which women are some
times more successful than men, and
that is in the management of.agencies.
In this line The Queen City Suspender
Company, of Cincinnati, O., are offering
inducements to ladies that we think
ought to attract attention. They are
now manufacturing and introducing their
new Stocking Supporter for ladies and
children. and their uneGualed Skirt
Suspenders for ladies. None should be
without them; our leading physicians
recommend them, and are loud in their
praise These goods are manufactured
by ladies who have made the wants of
ladies and children study, and they ask
us to refer them to some reliable and en-
ergetic lady to introduce them in this
and we certainly think that an
earnest solicitation in every household
would meet with a ready response, and
that determined woman could make
handsome salary, and haye an exclusive
agency. We advise some lady who is
in need of employment to send to the
company her name and address, and
mention this paper. Address QUEEN

A brilliant society event in WATERFOWL
circles occurred at the residence of Mr..
and Mrs. Jervis A Hall on Thursday
afternoon, May %, 1884, being the mar
riage of their daughter, Miss Jennette, to
Martin Luther yesterday, of Lincoln,
Nebraska. Born and reared in our midst
the bride through her we'll defined love-
illness of character and sweet disposition
had acquired wide circle of friends, a
large number of whom were present to
witness the nuptials with the one of her
choice. Those from abroad in attendance
were Mrs. S. B. Waller and daughter,
Kittie, S. H. Barstow, Mrs. Geo. Hard
ing, WauKesha; G. Ransom, Past Asst.
Engineer, U. S. n. and wife, Milwaukee;
A. O. Hall daughter, Alice and son,
William, Mrs E. M. Wood, Chicago;
Mr.. and Mrs. G. G. Eaton, Eau Claire.
At the hour appointed for the marriage
ceremony while the sweet strains of a
wedding march were waited through the
apartments, the happy couple, waitedIup-
on by Miss Alice Hall as, bridesmaid,
and Master William Hall as groomsman,
niece and nephew, respectively, of the
bride, stood in the parlor of the brides
beautiful home before an embankment of
natures choicest floral gifts. surmounted
by large monogram "E" tastefully
wrought of fragrant blossoms, and were
pronounced man and wife in fifty chosen
words by Rev, ]. M. Campbell, of the
Congregational church. At the close of
the ceremony the newly welded pair
were fairly showered with congratulations
from their friends, and the desire was
expressed by all that the journey of the
couple through life might be both pros
porous and happy. A splendid wedding
luncheon was next served, and the choic.
est viands, substantials and delicacies
disposed of as only sharpened appetites
can perform function of this character.
The balance of the afternoon was taken
up with social intercourse, music and
defamation, all going "merry as mar
riage bell'' until the departure of the
bride and groom to lake the 5 o'clock
train for Chicago. Mr.. and Mrs. Easter
day make short wedding trip to Ke-
waunee and Carthage. Illinois, before set
thing down in their new home at Lin
coin, Nebraska, where the groom is in
the enjoyment of good, lucrative legal
practice. The bride was made the re-
cipient of a collection of choice, useful,
beautiful and costly wedding gifts pre-
sented by her family and friends as
tokens of the high estimation she is held
in by them.

PrOhfOitiOa IN IoaUft.

Mr.. NoRRIs:-Upon my return I am
informed that during my absence you
have advertised me in the WATERFOWL
REPUBLICAN and the Milwaukee Sentinel
as intending to investigate the prospects
OF prohibition, to take effect on the 4th
of July, In the state of Iowa. [ passed
through The middle of the state, from east
to west, on the Council Bluffs line of the
Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway,
and made inquiries in regard to the mat
ter on all possible occasions, and have
come to the conclusion that the prohibi-
tory laws will be inforced, at least for
while, SO far as the saloons, breweries and
distillers will become the one side of the
contest. Drug stores to some extent will
usurp the place of the saloon. I have
heard enough to convince me that fana-
ticism on the subject of temperance, or
the evils of drunkenness, are not the only
melting motive of the prohibition advo-
Gates, but an Unborn dislike of the foreign
element becomes an ally to the prohibi-
zionist pure and simple. The law will be
enforced in the smaller towns and cities
without struggle-you do not even hear
the subject discussed, everybody treating
the question as matter of course, though
even the advocates of the experiment
freely admit that, for a time at least, the
state will sustain serious injury. In the
larger cities societies are forming, pledged
to the enforcement of the law, with
agents, spies, &C., SO that if there be such
a thing as compelling courts and other
Of n inf of sfo .,h T..
of the saloonkeeper, &c. will soon become
burden, and they will prefer to gnaw a
file and flee unto the mountains of Hepsi-
dam where the lion roareth and fhe
Wangdoodle mourneth for his first born
ah. | think there is no denying the fact
that if the Germans were not such siren
uous advocates of beer drinking, Ameri-
cans would not be so determined to COM
pei them to drink water, and pice versa.
| believe the contest between Mayor
Stowell and the saloonkeepers of Milwau-
kee was terrible mistake on the part of
the latter, and that the influence of the
conduct of the beer interest in this in
stance, has been to awaken a sentiment
in favor of high, higher license, if not
total prohibition, in Minnesota and Dako.
ia as well, as | have learned by personal
observation. 1t is not to be denied that
selling beer is not considered so indis-
pensable pursuit as running a Touring
mill and that the saloonkeeper must al
ways feel the humiliating consciousness
that his business exists only by the suffer
ance of his fellow-citizens. Iowa will
enforce the law though she perish in the
attempt, F. p BROOK
