Gately's Universal Educator.

This book is properly defined as an
educational encyclopedia and business
guide. Within the space of almost 1900
pages, nearly everything that an ordi-
nary person need know, is briefly but
inteiligently treated. It has been pre-
pared by competent persons, each a
specialist of the subject treated by them.
1t is solid, complete, and thoroughly
useful work, especially adapted for
teachers, who wish to have at hand a
book of reference, and for those whose
early education has been neglected. It's
best service will be, perhaps, to young
mechanics and to the energetic young
women, who are anxious to take in the
whole range of education, and have not
the means to purchase many books. 1t
should be companion to Webster s
Unabridged Dictionary in every school
house in the land, and should be found
in every private library. We commend
it to the public as by far the most de-
sirable work of the kind that has ever
been issued. 1t is in short, fair sized
and we'll selected library in itself.
Those who buy it will more than get
their moneys worth. The same amount
of information could not be obtained in
any other way for double the price Of
the book.

The vast amount of damage already
done in this country bv prairie fires and
the prospect of continuance of the
dry weather naturally causes consider
able anxiety amongst stockmen lest the
destruction should go on till there ism t
sufficient grass left to sustain life in
their herds. Several prominent cattle
men are at present in possession Of
thousands of cattle above the number
their experience tells them they can
carry with safety, having lost thousands
of acres of fine winter pasture by fire at
this early date. We often hear the re-
mark that vigorous measures should be
taken when it can be proven who starts
these fires, and in this we fully concur.
We do not, however, believe the mis-
chief is caused purposely, as some sug-
gest. We think, rather, if traced up
nearly every fire could be traced to care
lessncss Oh the part of travellers and
campers. The throwing away of ci-
gar stamp without proper precautions
is liable to cost thousands of dollars
worth of damage at any time.-Mobee-
tie Panhandle.

will make an excellent officer. He was
backed by heavy endorsements from

following is from the Washington dis

Mr.. Niles is thorough business man.
a courteous gentleman, and will dis
charge the duties of the Office with

Prohibition in AtchiSOn.

An Atchison telegram says: The whis-

torney General Bradford, against five
prominent saloons in Atchison, October
8, were taken up by Judge Martin on
the 18th. Attorney General Bradford
represented the State, and the defend
ants were represented by three leading
attorneys of the Atchison bar.
The FIVE cases occupied the entire
day, but at the close Judge Martin
promptly granted the restraining orders
asked Other suits will be commenced
forthwith unless the saloon keepers
agree to close up.

An Immense Brick Yard.

There will be large demand in the
spring for brick, and it will require
considerable outlay of money to meet
the demand. Charles Van Tromp has
secured ten acres of ground for brick
yard and has ordered steam brick ma
chine which will cost $1,000 90. With
this machine the best quality of press
ed brick will be made and which will
equal any brick made in the country.
Mr.. Van Tromp has had several years
experience in brick-making, and he is
the man to take hold of this enterprise.

We notice almost Every DAY group
of small school children standing near
the track at the lower end of the yards
as the noon passenger train goes by.
Some of them seem to try and see how
close they can come to being run down,
by crossing the track as the Grain APP
proaches. If the practice is continued
there will be slip and a fall one of
these fine days, and somebody's darling
will be gathered up with a shovel. "a
word to the wise is sufficient" and We
hope parents will warn their children
against such fool-hardy acts.-Kinsley

Mistlet0e for Kissing Purposes.

No English lacy considers her home

on this day, s.if gentleman discovers
lady standing under the Mistletoe, he
has right to kiss her.
If this ancient and honored custom
becomes as popular in America as it has
been for centuries in Europe, it will be
largely due to the Emporia (Fiosis!s)

A Cash Business.
To OUR PATRONS:

To Our PATRONS:
We have concluded to change cur
system of business after January l, 1856.
thereby dispensing with al! credit and
making our business absolutely cash.
We are convinced from years Of ex-
perience that, by selling goods for cash
only, they can be sold much cheaper,
with greater net profit, than by sell
ing them on time; therefore, we propose
to give our customers the benefit OF the
difference which We know we must do
to replace the loss of credit patronage.
While you may think that by the
adoption of cash rules we will not ac-
commodatc, we claim that you pay dear
ly for your accommodations derived
from credit business. We aim to place
our business on such basis that we
will not make Jones pay Smiths ac-
counts, but will give value received.
Nothing added for bad debts. This is
what we call genuine accommodation.
1t places money i, your pockets instead
of taking it out. You will also find our
prices uniform. We want the conf
dence Of the people. and will offer no
goods as draw. For instance, if we
sell soap for FIVE cents bar, we will
sell everything CORRESPONDENCE cheap.
1t is the footing of bill that counts,
and not one or two of it's items.
We thank you for your past patronage.
while we trust that honest dealing and
Low Cash Prices will cause your con-
tinuance Of trade with US, we remain
Yours,

There is good deal of talk being in
dulged in about the Dodge City saloons
being closed since the attorney general
visited that place recently. The writer
was at Dodge City the next day after
Mr.. Bradford was supposed to have put
an end to the whole business there and
saw the saloons running with open doors
as they were previous to his visit. This
thing of shutting saloons with ''shoot
mouth is becoming monotonous.-New-
