The Iola register. [volume] (Iola, Allen County, Kansas) 1875-1902, 1892-04-01

TER can be assured that they are fur
nished with all the important news OF
! the week. Take this issue, for exam
pie: 1t gives an extended report Ct
/ the great silver debate i'm Congress,
with the vote of each member, besides
summarizing fully all the other pro-
ceedings of Congress. 1t gives In full
the important diplomatic cOrrespon-
dence over the Boring Sea question.
1t notes the death of Walt Whitman
and gives a biographical sketch ac-
companied by an excellent portrait.
1t reports i'm full the action of the In
terror Department in the matter of
opening the Cheyenne and ArapahOe
! lands. Readers of daily papers will
recognize these four things as the
most important news items that have
been given to the world during the
past week. And when to them is
added the hundreds of items that are
condensed into paragraph and print
ed in these columns it cannot be de-
MED that the careful reader of the
REGISTER is as fully posted at the end
of the week upon the news of the week
as is the man who has read his paper
every day. And the reader of the
| REGISTER is saved the labor of wad
ing through the great mass of trash,
stupid and unimpOrtant details, which
is the bane of the daily paper reader.

Here is another idea for church so
Gals: 1t is called a shadow social and
is managed thus: After the usual
greeting a sheet is stretched across
the room to separate the ladies from
the men, the place occupied by the
latter being darkened, when a lady
takes the "stand" and her shadow is
thrown on the sheet; then the men
bid on the shadow. The highest bid
der takes the shadOw-Or the lady
who produces ito supper.
Seed corn smoked side ny side with
hams, and for the same length of time,
will grow, it is said, as readily as I'M
smoked grains. The advantage of
the method lies in the fact that
gophers, mice and blackbirds will
not touch it. Another advantage of
it is that it encourages the smoke
house, which is an institution that
ought to be commoner in Kansas than
it is.
If you are thinking of papering your
house this spring it will pay you to
call on A. o. Allen and get his prices
and examine his stock of wall paper.
He has more new goods than any 9TH
er firm lin the city and has stock on
hand of last year which is as good as
new and will sell at greatly reduced
price. Call and examine for yourself
before buying. A. o. Allen.
