MEXICO, Mo-, Nov. 25.-Notic.
ing several communications IN the
LEDGER of late on the "boycott"
and "reform questions, | con-
cluded to meet the petted beauties
on the battle field and defend the
rights OF injured innocenco.
How do you expect marriage to
be anything else than a failure
when the matrimonial market is
flooded with girls whose highest
ambition is to attend balls, sup
pers, operas, chew gum and bleed
the boys for every cent and more,
very often, than they can afford?
/ heard a young lady remark, a
few days ago, that she did not
think any the less of her gentle
men friends for not taking her out
to every opera that came to town ,as
her parents would accompany her
at any time she felt disposed to go.
| consider this young lady a para
gon of perfection and | think Miss
Uppershelf would do well to emu
late her example,, and she would
then be sought for by young gen.
tlemen who r well worthy of the
love and respect of all true and
noble women. She would.not then
have to set up a howl for company
to the theatre.
When girls are educated to as
pire to something higher than to
sit up and paint their checks, fold
their hands, chew candy and nuts,
you can then expect marriage to be
not a failure, but brilliant success.

Obituary.

Little Willie, daughter of Clar-

to the loving Savior's arms on Sun
day evening, Nov. II, 1888, age 10
months. The beauty ana sprght-
illness oflittle Willie won all hearts.
Though her stay was less than one
year, time cannot efface the pic
ture of her innocent loneliness.
Her little three year old brother
said: "Mamma, don't cry /; sister

A WORD FROM BOTH SIDES.
Shall the Theatre Going Reform
be Effected P-The Readers
Shall Decide.

1t has been said that the good of
a thing may be measured by the
opposition with which it has to
bear. Assuming that there be
truth in this saying, the move on
foot by the girls of this town to Sc
cure a much needed reform, is in
deed a laudable one. This office
has been deluged all day by letters
and messages OF complaint from
young men about town who say
that they can paddle their own
canoe. The truth is, they see a
righteous cause behind the efforts
of the young ladies', and for fear
they may be forced to yield to it, a
violent opposition is set up. But
the young men were not alone to-
day in agitating this interesting
subject. The girls came up right
nobly with with their pleas for
fairness and so it remains for the
LEDGER to give to the public sam
pie letter of each class. The first
is from the opposition, as follows:
To the Editor of the Ledger.
MEXICO, Mo-, Nov. 1S.-It was
with no small amount of disgust
that l read the howl of "Miss Up
pershelf'' in the LEDGER of Satur-
day afternoon. In a few words,
I can tell you what is the matter
with the lady in question: l think
she does well in signing herself as
she does. I think it possible that
Miss Uppershelf has always occu-
pied her present exalted position,
not on account of age, but for rea-
sons that only a block-head could
fail to see. In short,I think"Miss
Uppershelf" has no right to ex-
press herself on a subject of this
sort. am of the opinion that if
this so-called"reform" were effect
ed, "Miss Uppershelf' would be
the last one affected by it.
