CASH CITY CASHIER.


Cash City, Clark county, comes to the
front with a newspaper called the Cashier.
Exchange.
Cash City is named for Mr.. Cash Hen
derson. Of Wichita. If the new city and
its paper are animated by title Of the
life and spirit of Mr. Henderson, Cash City
will make town which Will be heard of
in the futare. They say it is located in a
splendid country, rich, fertile and beauti-
ful, and we guess that Cash City is one of
the coming important towns of Kansas.
LATE Merritt, formerly of the Cheyenne
Transporter, and Il very bright newspaper
man, is the editor and proprietor of the
Cashier, who will do his part i, keeping
Cash City and Clark county before The

PETTICOATED OR WINGED ANGELS,
WHICH?

The way Mrs. NJ Z. Lease did up our
biblical correspondent and ancient scholar
was 2 caution 10 all bipeds in whom brains
rather than heart predominant. But what
bothers Us is how our fair proved and
warm. hearted correspondent manages To
produce such replies without employing
some brains. We intimated to our Pauline
patron that while his quotations were evil
IDENTIFY very sound, his communication
would elicit some warm replies We
guess the one will prove sufficient. We
only know of one individual in this neck O
woods whose ex reriense and brains would
warrant his entering the lists against those
beings whose hearts rather than their brains
compel the worship Of every true man,
but modesty forbids the mention of his
name Besides he thinks there is an easier
and more direct road to heaven than
through purgatory Moreover, when ii
comes to a battle Of hearts and brains with
the Bible as the only ammunition and no
fence in sight to straddle, we would rather
take the side of the hearts, which not only
includes our fair correspondent and the
Hvpatia club, but Susan B. Anthony and
all the angels, whether in petticoats or with
wings.
Il is tie brains which promises to pro
tect the timorous, quivering angel when
the aureole Of orange blossoms are placed
upon her smooth brow, but after awhile
when the husband gets torn up lay care ana
trouble comes to steal away the peace Of
these brains, how is it then? The heart
he promised TO protect becomes his protec-
tor. She sees the sunshine through the
clouds. She smoGths out his corrugated
brain receptacle and stays his tagging
spirits. She puts new life in his bosom,
turns his eizzard into a heart and inspires
him with new hope, strength and zeal to
wres,le with life and It's responsibilities
Woman may be the weaker vessel, bat
she neither breaks up nor goes 10 pieces Is
soon as man. and Paul would never have
talked as he did had his angel been one Of
petticoats rather than one OF imaginary
wings.
