The Kimball graphic. (Kimball, Brule County, Dakota [S.D.]) 1883-1905, 1884-05-16

A late fashion journal brings the
startling announcement that bustlesy
are to be enlarged. Old papers at
this Office at fifty cents per hundred.
-GRAPnIc.
We are ahead of you on that, Ii
nan. We sold all of ours the fore
part of last week.-Index.
We referred to old exchanges.
Pleased to learn the Index has found
a way TO get rid of its edition.
Wouldn't care to have the GRAPHIC
"set down upon" by the young ladies.
The junior editor OF the Index will
raise a hustle in the family if he fits
out too many young ladies with bus
ties.
b .B. Colborne owns a CLAIM shanty
which has proved up nine claims. 1t
Is warranted not to rip, ravel or run
down at the heel. 1t has never mics
ed proof and its owner claims it
never will. He is getting ready to
move it across the r1ver to the reser-
walton where its usefulness may be
extended.-Alexandria Herald.
And yet there are some papers in
Dakota that clicked" at the GRAPHIC
because it opposed the opening of
any more public lands for settle
ment (?) under existing land laws,
which have allowed such proceedings
as the above. 1t is the only paper
that has advocated the extension from
six months to five years of continuous
residence before allowinga settler to
prove up, a similar law of which will
soon take effect.
No, Horace, YOU can't tell
what a girl will do. The GKApn1c
would advise you to give her up.
Girls are mighty uncertain things to
handle. Word comes to us from
Iowa that a girl there while playing
"Copenhagen" jumped over two
chairs, tipped oyer a table, smashed
a kerosene lamp all to pieces, tore a
lace curtain to shreds, ran behind the
door, shrieked, howled and yelled
like a Sioux Indian and scratched the
fellows face in seven different places
and when he kissed her on the tip of
the ear, tainted dead away and they
carried the poor thing home on a
stone boat. She declared she never
could look a person in the face again.
The next day she raj away with a
cross-eyed book agent with a hair lip
and six children.
MARR1Ep--At TT. Dodge, Iowa,
Tuesday, May 9th, 1884, Mr.. Thos.
+. Kigg, and Miss Kate Baldwin.
Mr.. Rigg is the editor of the
Plankinton Standard. The GRArn1c
congratulates Mrs. Rigg upon the
wisdom of her choice. 1t has always
occurred to us were we a girl we
would demand an editor or death

manifest a decided preference as be-
tween the two for the latter. Bro.
Rigg will also accept the GRApH1c's
kindest wishes for the future happl-
ness of himself and bride and let it
be hoped that sometime when a little
winsome cherub with sunny smiles
and an assortment of collie that will
keep him awake three nights in a
weeks trotted on bis knee until he
is in danger of becoming knee-sprung
he will not say with Whittier: Gwen
If it once was so it must never be so
again.
