Another of our theories has been up
set. For years the Western woman has
been held up to ridicule as a creature
whose style Of dressing was extremely
loud. and whose taste in cOlOrS was very
exaggerated, to say the least. Now
there advances a IMAM milliner"-
quite British just now to include dress
makers under the name milliner-right
here in St. Paul, who asserts that nc
where in the United States do women
dress so gaudily as in New York itself,
and that half the Eastern styles are en-
tirelv too striking to suit the quieter
taste of Western women. This we may
take as compliment to our refinement,
or a blow at our prOVincialiSm, which
CNCl pIGuSCS US. IL llldN DG lndl Oil dul
Is not yet so metropolitan but that thele
are some people with a regard for what
others will say, which is distinctly pro-
Vincial. Fear of what the other women
will say keeps woman in a small town
from adopting striking fashions, and it
may be the same feeling that keeps ST.
Paul women from decking themselves
out in gaudy attire; or it may be GER
tain innate feeling that to attract public
attention by the splendOr of ones gar
ments is hardly the most refined thing
one can do. At any rate, we dress IN
much quieter fashion than our Eastern
sisters.
Fancy a spring jacket with tinsel
frogs. Tinsel runs riot in spring fash
ions. Sometimes it is used alone and
sometimes it is mixed with silk braid.
Jew eled trimmings are exquisite. The
imitation turquoiS is nearly as delicate
as the real stone, but is a very trying
tint. \ great many gauZes are en-
broidered in the imitation jewels, or i'll
cut jet, which is more popular this sea-
son than for five years. The fancy for
JeWeled trimmings has made popular
two cOlOrS-bluet and coral, or in
English, turquois and coral. All the
spring cO1Ors are very trying. and fear
me great many of us will be forced to
resort tOa more than usually heavy
coat of rice powder not to appear SallOw,
or. what is worse, appear parboiled.

Againss the Insurance company.

A merchant who was member of a
mutual accident insurance association
was killed, while hunting for recreation,
from an accidental shot. The associa-
ton provided for the payment of sums
ranging from 5000 to $500, according
to the occupation Of the member. Mer-
chants certificates call for 5000; but
the company paid the benefciaries of
the man in question only $500, on the
strength of a provision that any member
receiving an injury while engaged tenn
porarily in another occupation more
hazardous than the one given in his GER
tificate, he shall be entitled only to sucb
sum as provided for in the occupation in
in which he is engaged at the time of
injury.
The Illinois supreme court held that
the beneficiaries were entitled to the
whole 5000, as the word Occupation
in the bylaw has reference to trade, vo-
cation or profession, and does not pre-
clude n member from the performance
OF acts which are simply incidents con-
nected with the daily life of men in all
pursuits. st. Louis Globe.Democrat.

How to Ask n Favor.

A favor should never be asked unless
securing it be an absolute necessity.
Never ask favor from a stranger or an
acquaintance unless some business or
other circumstance morally entities you
to assume that you are justified. When
you really need favor go to friends; if
they are true they will grant it. Friends
are often proved in adversely. 1t is a
safe rule never to ask favor unless YOU
believe you can. in some way, recipro-
cate it. When you do ask do it conf
IDENTIFY and fearlessly-a faint heart usu-
ally fails in this as in other things.

Geo. T. Mason, Drain Commissioner
made the following report:
To the Honorable Board of Supervisors
of Shiawassee county:
GENTLEMEN-Your committee appoint.
ed to procure copy ofthe stubs forders
drawn in Genesee county, on the Webb
Creek and Hudson Drains, and to asccr-
tain the financial conditions of said
drains, would beg leave, after a careful
investigation, to make the following re-
port, that have obtained copy of all
orders issued on Webb Creek and Hud-
son drains in Genesee county, and what
they were issued for.
find the financial condition of the
Webb Creek drain as follows:
On Dec. 81, 1889, the work had been
sold, assessment rolls made, and orders
drawn for all expenses up to date, the
orders drawn deducted from the amount
assessed for said drain, left balance of
$25Sl.l4. The work was sold for $2238 30.
find that four of the contractors failed to
give the required bonds, and that the
said contracts were re-let at private sale
for $1l4.62 more than the original con-
t<act price, making $2352.S2. Contract
ors have been paid $2346.62. Due con-
tractors, providing the contracts were
completed, $6.lO.
Taking the amount for construction
from the amount on hand, Dec. 81, 1889,
would leave $22s.22. This is accounted
for as follows: Surveyor for leveling $l7;
commissioners fees, $l9S.94. Balance in
Genesee county, $S.72; balance in Shia-
wassee county, 1886. Total, 1928 %.
We find from the report of w. o.
Boughton, who had charge of the work,
that he examined the whole line of the
drain Aug. 2, 1891, and says it will take
to finish section 0, $500 Sec 10, $500;
sec. l6, $1,000; sec. 10, 5000; sec. 20,
$1,000; sec %, $500 sec. %, $500; sec.

Paid contractors $93.9O for more work
than has been done.
The work on the Hudson drain is re-

far as could ascertain, the orders were
drawn.

there is an immense quantity OF water
coming down the river. On Thursday
the Ohio and all it's tributaries were
rising. except at Pittsburg, where il

it stood 20.9 feet the water at Nicks-

Should there be no more rains to
throw more water into the rivers above,
