maidenly, blushiug moon, at is'is sometimes

possible for woman to have equal rights and

implement of progression and reform, as
well as vehicle OF progress and delight.

ests of stockmen.
If the new process OF saving line gold
proves a srcce,s there will ne great deal

hare about Priest rapids, fsot that has
been pat, Mt for years; but The means for
working the sand have been wanting, the
gold Is so light.
