Pretty Women.

1t is popular delusion, writes William
E. Cnrtiss to this Chicago Record from
Paris, that French women ARE the most
stsl,sh, gfaceTu! and beautiful in tn
world, although as n MISTER OF fact they
do not equal the women of America
either i'll figure, feature or complexion
There Is no doubt that their taste and
skill in dress is superior to that Of ether
nations, and a French woman IN a din
ner or street toilet is the highest ex-
ample of the modiste's art; but when you
put a French gown and bonnet and the
same frills that French women wear up
on an American girl you get result
that will surpass anything else on earth.
You can see more pretty women In
banking house in Rue Scribe on the
morning that thu American mail arrives
than are found anywhere else in Paris
French chic is attrac' i've an | faclnating,
but the grace and dignity OF an Ameri-
can beauty is much more SO.

I'lankiMtOn POstofEce II Obbed
Mitchell Republican:-It seems that
the fellows who have a pelchant Tor
robhing postoflices have not all been con-
fined in the state pemltentiary and While
Inspector Fosnes was looking after the
fellows who robbed tho postofiice at
Scotland the Office at Plankinton was
robbed last Thursday night. Postmaster
Tom Taubman left everything in a per-
fectly safe condition, but when he went
down the next morning he found eviden-
ces sufficient that his Office had been
touched. Tho safe had been blown open
and 1925 in cash was carried Of by the
robbers, who in their haste, however,
overlooked about 5000 worth Of stamps.
MIR. Taubman saved 500 in gold which
he carried home with him that night.
Five registered letters were also secured
by the thieves. The robbery seems to
have been designed, owing to the sup
position that the office would have a
large amount OF money on hand about
the first of the month. before the remit
ia nee was made. Four suspicious char.
acters were seen in the town during the
day but they were nowhere to be found
after the robbery. From the fact that
the Scotland post Office robbery was SC
recent it seems that another organized
gang is at work in this section. 1t is to
be hoped that the gang will be appre'
and brought to speedy justice.

ROY and a NIatch.

Friday about noon our people wit
messed what might nave proved a serious
fire. The alarm was sounded and the
file was found to be at Eugene McLaueh-
Inns barn. The wind was blowing a
gale, but with the aid of the hose and
a force Of ready hands the flames were
extinguished without other serious dam
ages. 1t is said that little Elmer, the 6
or Z year-old-son of Mr.. Mclaughlin, had
some matches and accidentally stepped
on one. The boy no doubt was playing
with them. twas quite exciting for a
few minutes, all knowing that water vas
hardly obtainable.

The free silver forces in the fourth
judicial MitchclD circuit decided that
they wanted a Republican Judge

brought about by the utter selfishness Of

the Democrats one iota, but were deter
mined to hog everything.-Ashton

trumpet in a firm and steady way. If

The man that owns his acres is the man

beware of how you speak OF a woman's

has been building it, Of the trials and
privations endured, of the wounds re-
ceived, and let nc suspicious follow heI
actions. The purity of woman IS the
salvation Of the race, the hope of future
greatness and the redemption of man
' Without her purity, man sinks beneath

A few weeks ago the editor was taken
with a very severe cold that caused him
to be in a most miserable condition. 1t
was undoubtedly a bad case of la grippe
aud recognizing it us dangerous he took
immediate steps to bring about a speedy
cure. From the advertisement of Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy and the many
good recommendations included therein,
we concluded to make a first trial of the
medicine. To say that 1t was satisfac
tory in its results, is putting it very
mildly, indeed. 1t acted like magic and
the result was a speedy and permanent
cure. We have no hesitancy in recon-
mending this excellent Cough Remedy
to anyone afili cited with a congh or cold
in any form.-The Branch OF Liberty,

The following account Of the terrible
