The grip has fastened its cold clutches
on Custer at last. We thought for a
time that we were going to escape it,
but when it was learned that all other
towns Of the Hills had it, she had to
up and have it, thinking, of course, that
she might as well be dead entirely as to
be out of fashion. She hasn't got it
neal as bad as she lets on anyway, but
she is bent on having the world know
she's got it. Custer is determined to be
~fashionably IN it, even if it does involve
a little inconvenience and the nominal
expense Of a doctors prescription, for
which, it might be proper to state, en-
PEASANT, is quite questionable to pay.

This week will 60 upon record as the
most delightful, SO far as the weather is
concerned, ever experienced in Custer
at this season Of the year. The storms
predicted by the weather prophets,
which were billed for this period failed
to materialize, and warm and balmy
weather, sandwiched with brilliant sun
shine, was enjoyed by our citizens to
their hearts content. 1t may be COM
paratively safe to predict, in a general
way, the character of weather in adj
of time, but the weather sage who
has a proper regard for his reputation,
should refrain from locating violent
storms at Custer. 1t is dangerous.
