learned that Ireland, though but spot on the

is forced to send out thousands and thousands of

BARGAINS.
-[Cassell's Family Magazine.

Nothing appeals to the feminine heart with such
direct force as bargain. Some philosophical OBJ
servant person has said a man will pay so cents
for % cent article he wants and a woman will
pay rs cents for 30 cent article she don't want
because it is cheap. This sounds like libel, yet
it is one Of the clevery expressed truths we women
smile at and say nothing. An old story is still
rife of the woman who bought the door plate at an
auction because some day one of her daughters
might marry man whose name was writ thereon
Just at this season in the larger cities we read of
enormous underwear sales-cambric embroidery
trimmed articles that the well-informed thrifty
housewife well knows the work and the worth con-
nected therewith-at prices that truthfully an
nounce themselves Slaughtered" Of course
women buy with scarcely thought of how such
prices can be made Helen Campbell in her ex-
posure of the ways and methods of the manufac-
turing of this underwear is doing work which
should walk ahead of all otherreforms. Her book
prisoners of Poverty" should be put in the
hands of every intelligent woman in the land to-
day. 1t tells the story in plain English and brings
the figures to show the practically inclined how
dear is the price they are paying for the under
wear, inasmuch as the poor working women pays
three-quarters of its worth in her own life blood
The following lines are from the New York Sun
of last week. So much truth is not often told in
so few words
BLOOD ON THE BARGAINS.
Ye ladies' Of fashion, who the stores through
Alike in the sunshine and wet,
Look sharply, and see, in the shopping you do
If bloods on the bargains you get
You need now and then of an elegant line
OF garments so cheap and so NICE
And greatly you marvel that clothing so fine
Can ever be sold at the price
You hasten to buy them but what do you buy?
The blood that is wrought in the stuff
The lives of your sisters who suffer and die
That you may have bargains enough
If raiment you find that is fit for your wear,
In texture and finish gem, .aI.rgl
Look closely look sharply, and what see you there?
Starvation from collar to hem.
The bargains you get, do you know what they cost
Though plainly the price marks be set?
The lives of the starving, the souls of the lost
Yes, those arethe bargains you get ;st ~
Justthink! Only thinkl Youhave money enough
And home pleasures wait for you yet.
Just think of starvation worked into the stuff,

The chicago, EasI II West Railroad.
1t ia learned from the Geneseo Republic
that Judge Wait. of Geueseo, met Presi-
dent Willard of the proposed East &
West railroad and Hon, Jno. J. Bennett,
n master in chancery of the circuit court
of the United States, in Chicago last
week. He learned that Mr.. Bennett had
been rendered and had under cOnsidera>
ton, proposition which will place him
at the head Of the enterprise, and that 1t
is the intention to build the road, and
that securing right of way from Chi
cage to Muscatine without compensation
is what is expected from the people
along the line. Three feasible routes
are offered: One an air line from CHS
cago to Muscatine, through Geneseo;
another bearing south touching Princes
ton and Cambridge and thence to
MusCatine or Wapello third
running north of Green river district to
Rock Island and Moline. Mr.. Bennett,
who formerly lived in Galva, Henry
county, has written Judge Wait since his
return from Chicago, announcing his
present and prospective relation to the
enterprise, AMI to secure from his friends
or those interested. an impression rela>
tive to what may be expected in the way
of giving right of way to the road.
The letter will be submitted to the Gene>
SEQ Business Mems Association and
others interested. 1t seems almost cer>
tain that the road is to be built. and just
as certain that to secure it on any of the
routes mentioned above, the people must
do some active work. Mr.. Bennett is
said to be a man of much energy and
would not touch the enterprise unless he
saw a good prospect of the accomplish
ment.

The pleasing intelligence is made public
here that nearly all the oysters which Chicago
epicures and others have been eating are sub
jected to such vigorous hydropathic treat
ment as to render them practically without
flavor. 1t is explained that the ''shuckers"
in the Baltimore packing houses in opening
the oysters throw off all the liquid, as they
are paid so much gallon for 'sold meats"
The oysters are then thrown into a larger
colander holding about barrel, and as soon
as it is filled a stream of cold water in the
shape of a spray is turned upon the oysters
for considerable length Of time, for the
purpose of bleaching them and bloat-
ing them The practical effect of this is
completely to deprive them of their original
flavor; but, as if this was not enough, large
piece of ice is put in barrel and the oysters
are then poured into the barrel and the
barrel headed up. In this condition they are
shipped to Chicago Over 1000 carloads of
oysters were shipped to Chicago from Balti-
more last year, and after being subjected ia
the cheering process of an all rail ride to thii
city their condition is in no wise improved,
