A certain shoemaker says: "Worn shoes
60 ahead of the art of fortune telling from
the lines of the hand. In your shoe for in
stance, see irresolution, changeableness,
inclination to slovenliness and occasion par
oxysms of illhumor. Show me any PERSONS
foot gear after two months wear, and I will
describe the character of the person. If the
soles and heels are worn evenly then the
weareris a resolute. able business man, with
clear head, a trustworthy official, or an ex-
celent wife and mother. If the sole is worn
on the outside the wearer is inclined to ad-
venturous, uncertain, ftful deeds, or, if a
woman, tobold, self-willed, capricious tricks.
The sole being worn on the inner side shows
hesitation and weakness in man and mod
esty in woman.

EpOCh,

The translation from long, lingering
and painful sickness to robust health
marks an epoch in the life of the indi-
vidual. Such a remarkable event is
treasured in the memory and the
agency whereby the good health has
been attained is gratefully blessed.
Hence it is that so much is heard
in praise of Electric Bitters. So many
feel they owe their restoration to
health, to the use of the Great Alter
native and Tonic. If you are troubled
with any disease of kidneys. liver or
stomach, of long or short standing you
will surely find relief by use of Electric
Bitters. Sold at SOC. and 81 per bottle
at l. Leist's drugstore.

Hibbard's Rheumatic Syrup.

There is certainly something remarkable
in this preparation, as it is meeting with a
success never attained by any other medi-
cine. 1t never fails, if used as directed.
For over twenty years have been a great
sufferer from the effects of a diseased stom-
ach and for three years past have been un-
able to do business. Two years ago my case
was pronounced incurable. I visited differ
ent water cures and climates, all to no pur-
pose. Last June began using Hibbard's s
Rheumatic Syup (prepared by Rheumatic
Ryrup Co., jackson, Mich. and at once be-
gan to feel better. 1 have used thirteen bot
ties, and am a we'll man.

The Motor Line to Fairmount.

At O'Clock last evening the first electric
motor was run up the new extension on
Madison street into Fairmount park. Tho
last soldering on the overhead wire was
done by lamp light, and the trial trip made
to demonstrate the fact that the line was in
complete running order for today's work,
The motor was loaded down with an enthusi-
astc crowd, and the procession enjoyed an
ovation during every foot of the jour-
ney from the time the car left Broad
way until it reached Graham avenue.
The progress was very slow on account OF
covered the rails, but IL was very brilliant
for the same reason. Every pebble the
wheels passed over would break the electric
circuit and make brilliant arc between tho
wheels and the rails, and the journey was
illuminated by one of the most gorgeous pyY
rotechnic displays ever seen in the city. IL
it HAD been few hundred feet in the air,
instead of on the pavement 1t would have

for all the world like terriio

and all the put up lightning in the clouds.

from the distance of a few blocks it looked
like the whole car was enveloped in solid

The Behring Seizures.

OTTAWA, Ont. August 17.-Bowell, minis
ter of customs, to.daN received by mail the
official reports of the seizure of the British
vessels in the north Pacific by United States
cruisers and revenue cutters for alleged
violations of United States laws in United
States waters. These papers, it is under
stood, show that such seizures, so far as
they relate to ships registered in Canadian
ports, were affected outside the marine
jurisdiction of the United States, and are
therefore unjustfable, and entitle the own
ers and crew to compensation for any loss
that may have been suffered. Bowel laid
the papers before a council of ministers this
afternoon, by which they were discussed.
Copies will be forwarded to the imperial au-
thoritles for the communication of the result
and claims through the regular diplomatic
channels of the United States government.

Origin OF the sweet Glover.

'I read The BEES article about the wide
spreading sweet clover with a good deal of
interest,"" said citizen yesterday, land if
you want say anything about 1T will let you
into a part of the secret of its remarkable
spreading procllvities. Old Man Roup-
everybody knows him as one of the most ener-
getic men in Council Bluffs, in his way-is a
great bee man. When every other mans bees
fail to make honey for the market or starve
to death, Roup always has plenty of honey
and happy, thrifty bees. He knows how too
keep them and feed them. A few few years
ago Roup discovered that there was no flow
ering plant the bees so delighted to work
upon or yielded so much rich and delicious
honey as the sweet clover. Last season he
obtained from some source bushel or two
of the seed and scattered it around in the
night time upon all the vacant lots in the
upper part of the city and many places on the
bottoms. The acres of the fragrant plant
that have since sprung up is the result. AS
q consequence there never was such honey
crop in Council Bluffs as that of the present
season. The plant is a perpetual bloomer,
from the middle of June until nipped by the
frost. 1t pretty nearly breaks Mr.. Roup's
heart to see the vandals cutting down the
fragrant stuff especially since it has proven
such deadly enemy 10 the sunfiowers and
other noXlous weeds, as well as such great
food plant for the honey bees"

Opening of tho Building Season.

Opening of tho Building Season.
The autumnal building season in Council
Bluffs is opening up unusually early, and
with something more than the phenomenal
activity that characterized it during the
early summer months, when the building
permits averaged about 100000 month.
The record for the year will show 1889 to be
the prize year in the history of
Council Bluffs. Before the first of
May the number of new buildings
in process of construction ran away up in
the hundreds, and now those completed and
underway reach we'll up into the thousands
In fact the contractors and builders have
been unable to determine when one season
ended and the other began There was only
the slightest little falling off during the eX
cessively hot midsummer days, and this only
became perceptible by the increased activity
of the past few days.
The buildings under contract and for
which contracts are now being made are of
a better character and more expensive than
those erected earlier in the season. The fol-
lowing building permits were issued yester
day:
E. L. Shugart, building between Main and
Pearl, $500,
Joseph McWilliams, lots 1 and 2, block SO,
Riddles addition, frame cottage, 5000.
G b. Judd, lot /, block |, Curtis & Ram

tage, $500.
B. M. Willetts, rhompson's addition, two
frame residences, $1,000.
G. b. Judd, Thompson's addition, resi-
dence, 50, 500.

A Nuisance Abated.

The old rooKeres on Washington avenue
between Second and Bryant streets, which
have been the cause of a good deal Of trouble
to the residents of the neighborhood and the
board of health, which august body declared
them nuisance and ordered their removal,
have been sold by the original owners aud
their existance as nuisance or
otherwise will soon cease. The. corner
lot on North Second and Washington
has been purchased by Mr.. Peterson. who
will commence at once the erection of a two
story brick fiat Another has been sold 10
+. ID, Cook who will erect fine residence,
and all the remainder but one thirty foot lot
have been sold TO parties who will build
handsome residents upon them.
This will be gratifying news TO the city
council and the board of health who have
been trying to abate the nuisance for the
past six months. II will also create new
interest among the residents of that beauti-
full street and give another impetus to the
building boom.
