the coming season. No lady's wardrobe
will be complete without silk dress, a
silk waist or dress trimmed with silk.

Feverish Activity of the Day Makes a Woman Old at Thirty-fve.
 One can do three times as much by being quiet and taking things easy as by rushing. Girls in every station of life are hurting themselves by attempt. ing to do too much. The girl who has to work is over-ambitious, and the so. ciety girl thinks she must let as much between clubs and classes. with every form of gayety imaginable, she is working so hard that when she is thirty and should be reaching her prime, which physicians say is thirty-five, she is old and broken down. The feverish desire to have and to achieve is killing the girls of to-day.
 All restlessness and seeking after what does not belong to one is hin- drance to any woman, be she old or young, and one which, in many in- stances, God did not intend should come into her life. Repose and perfect quietness seem to be unknown factors nowadays, and the simple doing what one has to do quietly and properly also ignored. The girls of to-day, no mat ter what their age may be, rush for everything. There is excitement in mind and body over the least little thing, and women are wearing them selves out absolutely doing nothing. You cannot convince girl that with proper denberation she might accom- plish just what she wishes and be strong in body and restful in mind as we'll No, she has got so entirely used to rushing at everything that she wears herself out racing up and down stairs, and when simple. normal work is fin ished she is, as she puts it, ''so dead tired that I can't even rest. ."-Ladies Home Journal.

The first practical steamboat was built in New York in 1907, called the Clermont, and ran to Albany and back in August of that year. But steam boats had been run before that. As far back as 1543, it is said, Blasco de Garay ran boat with steam applied to paddle wheels; in 1707 Papin ran a boat on river in Germany; in 1763 William Henry tried his steamboat on the Con- estoga river, in Pennsylvania. Other experiments were made in 1774 and 1775, in 17ss, 17s4 and 17s6. John Fitch had a steamboat on the Delaware in 17s6, and another vessel ran in that river from 179O to 1792 In England successful experiments were made in 17sS. 17s6 and lSO2, and in this country in 1904. But Fulton's Clermont was the first practical steamboat.

Resalt of Extens,v. Improvement,.


 The Louisville, Evansville ,S St. Louis Consolidated Railroad, familiarly known as the "Air Line," has shortened the run ming time of its passenger trains between St. Louis and Louisville one hour and twenty minutes; but the many improvements re- gently made in the roadbed, bridges, tun. nels, equipment, etc., will admit of still faster schedule, which will be made effect i've as soon as necessities may require. The facilities this line now gives the travelling public make 1t the favorite line between St. Louis and Louisville. All trains depart from terminals later and arrive earlier than competitors. The patrons of the Air Line can not fail to appreciate the efforts of the management to furnish accommoda- tions superior to any other line.
 Between Evansville and Louisville, where no competition exists, this being the only through train service route, the time has been shortened one.half hour.

The Dear, Worn Hand.

Few things are capable of touching one with deeper sense of pathos than the shrunken, blue-veined hand of one who is near and dear. Nothing brings a sharper pang of foreboding and a harder lump in the throat than the first time it strikes us that the gentle hand that soothed our childish pains and griefs, and has gladly worn away it's softness and beauty in our service is the thin and withered, with purple veins that stand out like whip-cords when it lies at rest Such hand ought to look more beautiful to those for whom it has toiled, whose suffering it has charmed away than the fairest hand ever modelled by sculptor.- Philadelphia Press

 cred In the Niobrara River.
 OMAHA, Neb., Jan. 2l.-The body ot Barrett Scott, the defaulting treasurer of Holt county, and who, while out riding with his family New Years day, was fired upon by party of vigi. lantes. and after being wounded was dragged from his carriage, blindfolded and then placed into another vehicle and taken in northerly direction, was found about 10 o'clock last night in the Niobrara river, about 300 feet below the bridge, on the Boyd county side, close up to the bank and in about 7 feet of water. He was in his shirt sleeves, but had his watch and chain and other personal effects just as he wore them in life.
 A new hempen rope about 11I inches in diameter was around his neck, and the end, about feet long, was dang ling in the water. Evidences showed that he was hung by the vigilantes before being thrown over the bridge into the water. There was a slight wound in the right side of his neck, where bullet had grazed it, cutting through the lobe of the right ear.
