Attractive Women.

Why is one woman attractive and
another not? The most admirable
and attractive thing about an attrac-
tive woman is her womanliness.
Every body admires . womanly
woman. She must have health, Of
course, because without it she would
lose the brightness Of her eyes. the
fullness of her cheeks and her vivac-
ity. Real health must mean that .
woman is really a woman. That she
is strong and perfect in q sexual way.
as well as in every other. That she
is capable Of performing perfectly
the duties of maternity. Some are
born with what is called "constitu-
tional weakness" Those who do not
enjoy perfect health. need only take
the proper precautions and the
proper remedy to become perfectly
well and strong. DR.. Pierce's Favo.
rite Prescription will cure any de-
rsngement of the distinctly feminine

Evan Lewis, "the strangler," will
appear in wrestling match in Chi
cago tonight, and the Times Herald
says: "Gripman Rooney. pride Of
the employees of the South Side street
car lines, is in better condition for
his match with Stranger Lewis
than he has ever been before. Since
Farmer Burns defeated him he has
trained steadily in anticipation of
another match, and is now 25 pounds
lighter. He tips the beam at exactly
200. and Lewis will have o desperate
struggle with the gripman. The noted
stranger has agreed to put the
local man on his back seven times in
one hour of actual wrestling. The
contest will be decided in Oxford
hall, Thirty-first street and Cottage
Grove avenue. Lewis is anxious to
show the public that he is in better
form than ever and that he can do
more with Rooney than could either
Mcleod or Burns. Lewis tele-
graphed his hackers yesterday that
he wants the mat inclosed with
ropes, so Rooney cannot run away.
Rooney is agreeable to the ropes, as
he fears Lewis may attempt to
throw him of the stage"

DID SOME FANCY WALKING

Colofed Felix's Context for . Cake 1T Har-
psr's Theatre.
The cake walk at Harper's theatre
Saturday evening was not as success
full in point of attendance as the
management anticipated and it re-
quired some close figuring for Clar-
encs Toliver. who got up the enter.
tainment, to come out even. But it
was . nicely arranged affair and in
cluded several new features. A
musical program preceded the walk
for the cake, in which nine couples
participated. A quartet composed of
Ollie Rivers, James Austin, Oscar
Thomas and Abe Warwick opened the
program with the singing Of .
medley. Prof. Damon, of Clinton.
displayed his skill as an artist on the
guitar, banjo, mandolin and either.
He came in for an enthusiastic round
of applause after each piece.
His mastery of the guitar
was particularly fine. Willie
Turks, OF Moline. sang down
by the Old Mill Pond" and "Speak to
Me Mable;" Miss Sarah Pearson, of
this city, who has a sweet soprano
voice, rendered "Come Buy My
Flowers" and Wallace Ballard sang
..There'll Come a Time" Then
came the rag. wing and buck dane
ing, in which Misses Lizzie johnson
and Dora Williams contested for
prizes. The judges of all the con-
tests we're Mayor Knox. Henry Carse
and Fred j. Kinney. who occupied q
box on the left side of the house.
They awarded the first prize for
dancing. So, to James Austin; the
second, 81, to Miss Dora Williams;
the third, bottle of wine donated
by Herman Banker, to Abe Warwick,
and the fourth. q necktie from Som
mers g. La Velle, to Moses De Bar.
The IS divided between Mr.. Austin
and Miss Williams was donated by
Emil Luchmanu. manager of Turner
hall. The dancing was followed by
an old time colored meeting, led by
Alex Bush, who made an extended
"dissertashun." Songs were sung,
the colored folks being attired in
costumes in keeping with the time
they sought to represent.
The cake walk concluded the en-
tertainment. Oscar Jones, who
made such good impression at the
former walk, was again the favorite,
but in view of the present condition OF
local politics, the ruling judges could
not consent to allow the prize to go
away from home. So they awarded
the cake to Wallace Ballard and Miss
Catharine Morrison. The gents first
prize, box of Morrison & Dolly's
''Illinois Girls" was given to Oscar
Jones, and the ladies' first prize. a
gold necklace from j. Ramser, went
to Miss Catharine Morrison. WAL
lace Ballard was given the gents
second prize, box of cigars from
William Langhinrichs. Mrs. Emma
Merchant was given the ladies' Sec
ond prize. hat from Byrnes & Co.
A purse of 50 was made up by the
judges for James Toliver and Miss
Virginia Morrison, who were one of
the three couples selected from the
nine to strut for the cake, their walk
ing being considered too graceful to
go unawarded.

A great many men throughout the
country, including plenty of really
swell fellows, have got it into their
heads, rightly or wrongly and we are
by no means sure that 1t isn't rightly
that there is no reason why any man
should pay more than $500 to $500
for pair of shoes, and to say the
least, the idea has this foundation in
reason, that excellent shoes are now
made for $500. To pay $500 or
$1,000 for pair OF shoes is simply
throwing away money, and In many
cases this is done to crafty mis-.
taken notion that none but your
favorte shoemaker is worthy to adorn
your feet. The recent improvements
