o OF arranging the hair from which
TO choose. 1t is unwise to use the iron
or the crimping pin on the hair of
growing girls; the most fashionable
women understand this, and insist that
until the debut has been made, a girl
must wear her hair in one of the two
styles: 1t may be parted and braided
in two plaits tied with narrow ribbon,
or it may be rolled off the face, braided
in one plat, topped and tied with a
black ribbon after the Cadogan fashion.
Vermillion Republican: Prof. Over
hulse and Senator Ayres did not have
"A very big turn out at their meeting in
Norway last Monday, although thev
both exploded just at the right time
and by note" They talked for about
two hours and then tried to organize a
silver club, but tailed because there
were not enough present who wanted
to be organized. The audience consist
ed OF about eight populists from YER
million and twenty good republicans
from Norway twp. Reddy Snyder went
along to hold the horses. 1t was not a
very encouraging outlook to say the
least. Senator Ayers and Bro. Satter
met with a similar reception in Glen
wood township.

and Judge G.. S. Palmer-thc twin pop
ulists-speak in Alcester. 1t is fair to

and sadly, to the parting OF the ways"
Evidently he has lost his mind, for il
ono can gauge the judge by his express
ions, he still labors under the same
condition he did when, two years ago,
in addressing the state republican con-
%vention he expressed himself in these
words: Il am profoundly ignorant OF
the merits Of the financial controver-
sy." He spoke the truth.

The Elk Point Mckinley Club had n
glorious meeting last Saturday night.
There was "A good attendance OF mem
bers while the enthusiasm vas up and
coming. President Ericsson presided
with his usual righteousness and carried
the meeting along in good shape. L,

! lights, SD that when the time came for
parading, the turnout would be proper
~ fixed for the event. The program
consisted OF addresses by M. H. Baugh
and w. r. Buchanan. Mr. Baugh gave
a splendid talk and surprised the audi
