It may be interesting to know Of the

1t may be interesting to know Of the
manner in which civil service examina-
ton paper is marked. A young man in
a neighboring city took such an exam
ination and here are some of the reasons
why he always failed to pass. In one
case in an arithmetic problem he had
failed to write answer" to the problem.
That took off 5 per cent, and then he
forgot to put comma between hun
dreds and thousands, which took off
another per cent. 1t was necessary to
take copy of his problems, and because
the copy was punctuated and the origi-
nal was not, 5 per cent was deducted
for each punctuation mark. TIL at
brought the average down below the
passing mark. And while the questions
asked were not difficult to answer he
failed, because of the useless and tire
some ginger bread work with which he
had to contend.-C Carroll Herald.

The Weather Crop Bulletin.
CENTRAL STATION,

CENTRAL CITATION,
Dies MONIES, Iowa, April %, 1897.
The first Of the week was unseason-
ably cold, with frost, ice and sleet. This
was followed by much higher tempera-
ture, making the average for the week
about normal.
The rainfall was phenomenally heavy
in the central and southern districts, the
amounts reported ranging from $50 to
go inches. The average for the whole
state during the week was more than
the normal amount for the month Of
April. All former records of April
precipitation in this state have been
broken. The week brought culmina-
ton of the bad weather of this most un-
favorable season.
AS result all farm operations have
delayed and very little progress has
been made in finishing up seeding and
making preparations for planting. In
some sections reports show that from 30
to 80 per cent of the area set apart for
oats has not yet been seeded. There
will be decreased acreage of oats on
this account.
There are no reports of damage result
ing from the freezing temperature on
the 10Th and Goth. Fruit of all kinds
appears to have escaped any serious in
jury. Grass is growing rapidly, and
early sown spring wheat and oats are
doing notably well. With the close OF
the week the weather conditions appear
much more encouraging.

they are missed in soliciting. Cash will

secured that will be taken, as transpor-
tation is free.

Silks.

The other day lady was in our
store and noticed some silks on the
counter. She said with surprise that
she didn't know WE kept such nice
silks. Said she wanted a dress but
intended sending to Chicago because
she supposed she couldn't buy as
cheap here. A great many people
around here, think they have to send
away for silks. They think as this
lady did, that we don't have them, or
if we do, that we charge more. This
is not true. We feel certain that
you can buy from us just as cheap
as you can in Des Moines or Chicago.
Bring the sample along when you
come, and compare them. If we are
higher then we don't ask you to buy:
We are trying to place before you,
right here in Audubon, stock of
silks, equal in every respect to Des
Moines. With a little encourage
ment we will do it. But if you insist
on sending away and not looking at
our goods, then of course we cannot.
Look at our goods first, compare
quality and price with the big
stores. If we don't have what you
want let US send for you. If we
charge more don't buy.
