hopelessly bankrupt, and Spain either cares
not or cannot relieve her. What would
be the worth of the purchase of such q
country to the United States? The opti-
mlsts in Cuba and here say that every>
thing would be lovely once if the island
were united to us. Perhaps; but it takes
long time to bring such loneliness
about in land two thirds at least, of
which is still uninhabited and unexplored
where everything has been undone and
everything remains to do; where the peo
pie are alien in religion, race and natural
bent; where the. population is of very
mixed character, and where ignorance
largely prevails. The purchase of Cubs
would entail far larger cost than the
mere purchase money involved and many
years of vexatious labor to bring about
any fruition from the bargain. On the
whole, We are better just at present with
out Cuba even as a gift.
The Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1877-1885, 1885-07-09

Now is the season when the maidens
fair dress them in gossamer garments,
and expose themselves with more than
masculine courage on open car and rail
way and steamboat to the sun and the
moon and the stars of heaven, and to all
the whims and changes of climate more
tickle than their own sex. Lovely are
they to look upon, these airy fairy Lii
ans, at once the delight and envy of the
men who perspire in their sober raiments.
But the chills, OH the chills. The chills
it is that kills. There springs up sud
den breeze, there falls a sudden shower
there is long ride home in the cool
night after the gay picnic and the heated
dance, and fell pneumonia, ever on the
watch for victims, pierces the light gauze
and the muslin and claims the fair weaTel
for his own Sensible giils should re-
member that 1t is just as needless and fal
more dangerous to go half clad IN thest
days as to suffocate themselves. They art
just rs pretty and fascinating if they
dress sensibly, and the men will think
none the less of them for doing so.
