First judicial Honors For a Woman.

To Henry VIII belongs the honor of
having conferred judicial rights upon
woman. Lady Anne Berkeley of York
was allowed by the sovereign, who had
the widest experience of the virtues of
women, to sit as a judge, appoint COM
mission and actually to pass sentence on
some men who had been killing her deer
and despoiling her park. The sentence
is not recorded. but the fact remains
that at least one woman has exercised ju'
iicial rights.-New York Sun.
La Grippe.
During the prevalence of the grippe the past
seasons 1t was noticeable fact that those who
depended upon DR.. Kings New Discovery not
only had speedy recovery, but csc" ped all the
troublesome after effects of the malady. This
remedy seems to have a peculiar power in
effecting rapid cures, not only in cases OF La
Grippe, but in all diseases of Throat Chest and
Lungs, and has cured cases of Asthma and Hay
Fever of long standing. Try it and be con-
vinced. It won't disappoint. Free trial bot

Peary,s Winter House.

The house in which Lieutenant
Peary and party will make their
winter quarters is now almost
completed and will be taken apart
and slowed on the Falcon before
she leaves Philadelphia next Mon
day. 1t will be used on the east
side of Ingle6eld gulf, Greeland.
Particular attention has been given
to protection from the cold. The
dwelling affords room for twelve
men, who are to comprise the pal-
ty. 1t will be 134 feet from the
ground to the top Of the dome 80
long and 16 feet wide. TO keep
off the arctic blasts, Lieutenant
Peary has decided to construct a
stone wall five feet high and
two feet thick around the house.
Corrugated iron plates and hot bed
sashed will be placed alternately
from the wall to the roof of the
house, all the way round, thus
forming a corridor, and compelling
those desiring to leave or enter
to pass through the doors. Tar
paper between the floors, and an
electric light plant and photogra
phic apparatus will be among the
features of an equipment.

to promote the work. Mr.. Bates
has put in long months Of hard

that il was man. At the report Of
the gym Savage called out and said he

assisted Savage down, as he was unable
to do so by himself. The party itnme-
diateiy started for home with the

Petty Thieviug.

There has been considerable
petty thievingaround Lebanon the
past week. On Monday night
some one went to r. G. Miller's
residence and stole large washing
which had been, left on the line
over night. Rev.. Beattie's family
had their washing stolen on Tues
day night, by leaving it out. The
sneak thieves also paid Rev. Hick-
man and Mr.. Sperlinga visit, max
ing a raid on their clothes-lines
while the washings were out. And
we are informed that they have
also made their second trip to J.
W. Menzies'.
This shoulda be warning to
others who have been leaving their
clothes on theli at night.
There is a good deal Of thieving
around here, and our citizens
should see that they dou't leave
things out that they would care if
they were stolen,
1t might be- well for our city
council to consider the matter of
putting on night-watch again if
this kind of business is kept up
much.

The Topic Well Handled by Magazine SC
Christened.
The December number Of Good Roads,
a copy of which has been received by the
ARGUS, ia an illinois number" the bulk
OF its contents being devoted to the dis
cussion Of road improvement in this
state. The initial article. Good Roads
for Illinois," is by Gov. Alleged. The
governor considers the question Of good
roads one of the most important that now
c0nfronts the farmers of Illinois. and he
thinks the state should take hold of the
vork with resolute spirit He says:
The time has come when a citizen of
Illinois should be able to drive from one
end Of the state to the other with team
at all times OF the year. We have as
founded the world in the building of
great cities, great rairo4ds. great shops
and great factories; We have built up a
splendid agriculture. and have pushed
the development of our wonderful re-
energies Of the people have been directed
toward these ends; but We find that
| nothing has been done toward making of
highway. that shall be psss4ble all the
year round. Consequently there are
months in every year in which it is i'm
possible for the farmer or the merchant
to drive his team 25 Clies with eveA half
a load; in short. we have made no mater-
ial Improvement oward the improvemen It
of our roads"
The governor then proceeds to discuss
the advantages improved highways would
be to the people, and makes a strong ar
gument in their favor. Among the other
articles of this number are: Hard Facts
and Political Points," oy d R. SDerry, of
