The man who handles the local de-
partment of a newspaper learns, after
due experience, not to expect even the
most briefly expressed thanks for a col
umn of pleasant things. but he knowcth
that as surely as conleth the winter, that
a single line in which there is an unin-
territorial Misrepresentation will cause
some one to be heard MS on a house top.
And we may add that when he hes made
pleasant mention 900 times of some per-
son, place or thing, but on the thous-
andth time he fails to do so, he must not
expect to be forgiven. The omission
may have been from accident, inadver-
tances or even from an entire lack of
knowledge-it matters not. The simple
fact remains that he will be judged on
that. There may be half a column of
news and every line but the last tell the
truth. But some one secs that last limo
only, forget that printers and editors are
like the rest of mankind liable to mis-
take and the first thing we know the fur
is flying. Such are the facts and we
hope the public will profit by them and
look at and admire the ninety and nine
lines and let the hundredth alone, trust
ing it was an unintentional mistake

A dress reform expert looking for
models gives these proportions as re-
quisite for physical perfection: A per-
fectly formed woman will stand at the
average height of five feet, seven inches.
She will weigh from 1875 to $40 pounds.
A plumb line dropped from a point
marked by the tip of her nose will fall at
a point one inch in front of her great toe.
Her shoulders and her hips will strike a
straight line drawn up and down. Her
waist will taper gradually to a size on =
line drawn from the outer third of the
collar bones to the hips. Her bust will
measure from % to SO inches; her hips
will measure from 6 to 10 inches ssmore
than this. Her waist will call for q belt
from % to 2Sinehes. The arms of a per
fect,y formed woma will end at the
waist line, SO that she can rest her ell
bow on table while standing cree. and
her forearm shall extond to e point per
hitting the fingers to mark a point just
below tbs middle of the thigh. Her
neck and thigh should be about the
same circumference. The calf of her
leg and her arm should measure the
same. The well proportional woman
wears a shoe one half the size of the
glove her hand calls for; thus if lady
wears a six glove she should wear q
three shoe.

Constantly Improving.

Artesian Advocate---On Saturday af-
ternoon one of our citizens while looking
over the srowd that throngcd our streets,
was led 10 remark: There's no use of
talking, this country is improving.
Four years ago one would SEQ a good
many OK teams, poor horses, worn out
wagons and buggies, but now look at the
fine blooded horses and large number of
farmers who come to town in their car
riages." And It's a fact. Those who
witness these changes from day to day,
as they take place, become accustomed
to them and are apt to think that every
thing IS at q stand still and fall into q
habit of %grunbling. Let them, how
ever, take a look back over the past for
several years and they cannot help but
note various changes IL the way Of ad-
vancement in almost every respect;
changes that denote solid and substan-
tlal growth and prosperity. Dakota is
getting to the front.

Old Hut Good.

In the early days of Methodism in
Scotland a certain congregation, in
which there was one rich man. desired
to build a new chapel. A church meet,
ing was held. The rich old Scotchman
rose and said, Brethren, we dinna
need a new chapel. Ill give five pounds
for repairs"
Just then a bit of plaster falling from
the ceiling hit him on the head. Look

said:

The property owners at the south end
of town can raise about $275 to lay a
small water main from the artesian well
to the residence of W. II. Wyant, but as
about S400 is required to do the work the
project may fall through. II enough
money can be raised the idea is to lay the
city, in turn, to give the property owners
contributing free use of the water for Il
certain number of years in proportion to
the amount each pays.
