One Of the most encouraging re-
ports, and reliable signs of the return
of prosperity, in the last four years
was published last week by r, G.
Dun & Go, 1t says four years ago,
Aug. 5, 1893, the first number of
Dun's Review was issued with failures
in the month amounting to over
$60,OO0,0O0, while the month just
closed failures have been only So, Ill.,
727, the smallest in any month since
1892. Last month was the first for
four years Of which the volumes of
business reported by clearing houses
was larger than in the same month of
1892, and the telegraphic dispatches
from all parts of the country given
this week show gratifying improve
ment. This is partly due to large
yield of wheat and good prices tho
other farm products are realizing good
prices also. The price of all farm
products are higher, the export of
wheat has greatly increased and the
price remains up, Notwithstanding
the fact that the yield will be exceed.
ingly large. This ought to be en-
couraging news to the farmer.

Of his bashfulness. Stranger, is
that there stuff good to put on
meat2' he inquired. Eyes, indeed,
if one likes seasoning, I replied.
He appeared satisfied and proceeded
to~try the condiment With reckless
liberality he took the small bottle
and shook out quantity upon his
plate. He cut off a large mouthful
of meat. rolled it about in the red
liquid until thoroughly saturated,
popped it into his mouth and bolt
ed it. What followed may be safely
left to the imagination. When at
last the power of speech returned to
him, he turned to me. There was
more of sorrow than anger in his
mind, and there was compassion in
the tone in which he said, "Stran-
ger, when yer time comes an yer gifts

For thirty years many of our own
people as we'll as our immigrants have
been hurrying into our growing cities
to live. It has been an era of Won
drous progress in invention, and ur-
ban life has received many finishing
touches which quite facinate the gid
dy-headed folks who could live forever
on show and shortcake. The more
sensible and substantial people, how
ever, surfeited with this social froth
and pantomine, have become weary
of the useless burdens they have borne
and are looking landward. The next
five or ten years will, thru this natur-
al reaction, be notable for the growth
and improvement of rural districts.
The beauties and advantages of
country life will be extolled by the
press, and another decade will find
the great masses of our people hap
pier than they are today. Thru this
new contentment will come better
and wiser and more
stable government. Pessimists who
see no beacon light ahead, will die of
grief or be smothered in halos of glad
ness. We shall return again to that
independence and individuality which
were the glory of the early days of
our republic, and which foretold and
shall again foretell the perpetuity of
our free Institutions Bede's Budget.

The recent discovery of Chief En-
gineer j, E, Nichols, of the West Jer-

piled to the ground along railroad
tracks would effectually lay the dust
has proved, after thoro tests, to work
far better than was first expected.
One sprinkling a year at cost of $50
per mile, tits claimed, will lay the dust
effectually, but two applications may
have to be made. The entire Penn
sylvania system, it is said, is to be
sprinkled with oil as speedily as pos
sible.

We still hear comments on the
Elk's encampment at Minneapolis,
and if one-half is true that is told it
would have tendency to convince
one in the Darwin theory, The mid
night orgies, debauches and licen-
tiousness participated in by the mem
bers of that society during the en-
campment are more fitting to the
quadruped than humankind; and in
fact, would cause many beast to
hide himself in shame. They have
succeeded in putting blot on that
society that can never be wiped out,
as hereafter any man with any de-
cency and spark of manliness with
in him will ponder and think twice
before allowing his name to be entered
upon the books of society with such
a disgraceful record.

much criticism, both as to Calve gowning
and her acting. She lis, no doubt more
coquettish in both than the Marguerites
we know, and while her quaint frocks
are strictly proper in every detail still she
has added few friyilous touches that
somehow bring her UP ito more modern
times and give us an added interest in
the character. Her bewitching little ways
that many critics have condemned as
being coquettish have helped endear the
character to the modern woman who sees
all the more reason for the nifatuation
of Faust. You know few women ever
can understand what imam sees to adj

One OF the neatest and swellest gowns
seen i'm the audience last Saturday was
made of deep red broadcloth. The skirt
and short jacket were perfectly plain,
the latter, however, was finished with
Substituting and velvet collar i'm a
darker shade of red velvet. The tight
lifting vest, which, of course, was sleeve
less, was made of deep rose-colored cloth
and was richly embroidered by hand with
gold threads and studded with mock tur-
quocses, charming contrast to the SOM
ibre red and rose of the cloth. / noticed
a number OF gowns consisting of plain
skirt and a double-breasted jacket like
