Flippancy is a woman's cynicism.
No woman can be a heartless flira

Whenever you admire a woman's
hair, she thinks you are limiting

No matter how ashamed a girl feels
the first time she kisses a man, 10 new

feel that way too.
A girl who doesn't like kiss ought

When a rich girl has kinlxy, black

One of the queerest things is that

Some women's idea OF taking care

Some men don't discover that they

Spring is the best time to get well. People
need a spring medicine to purify the blood
and strengthen the nerves. The best spring
medicine the world has ever known is DIR.
Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy.
1t is the peoples great remedy, the sure cure
on which the people know they can always
depend to get bacl. their lost health, the medi-
cine which makes the sick well, and keeps the
system in sound and perfect strength and
vigor. 1t is the remedy above all others to
take aaow, for thousands upon thousands of
people always use it during the spring months
to get their systems in perfect condition, and
pure blood, strong nerves and robust and
vigorous health in all cases follow its use.
Hon. c. W. Wheeler of Irasburgh, VT,
widely known and highly honored, who has
been Representative in the Vermont Legisla-
ture, Senator, and for Is years Treasurer of
lrasburgh, pays the highest tribute to the
Nervura. He says: have been for about
eight years in condition which seemed to me

LETTER FROM MISSOURI.

DEAR MoNIToR:-If the subscribers
to the MONITOR at home prize it as
highly as we, who are far from
home there should be no difficulty in
getting prompt renewals with almost
everyone on the list. When I last
wrote you from Illinois the weather
was typical Western weather, rain
and slush and deep mud. We recon-
mended the substitution of two feet
of good solid snow as better thing,
even for that part of the country.
They consider this rather hard win
ter for fall sown grains. We left Ill.
for Missouri, Feb. 6, just one month
from the time we left Vermont. The
prairie as we came westward through
Illinois is quite rolling, the soil, doubt
less, being very good. The buildings
are very poor as compared with the
average locality in New England. As
we approached the Illinois river we
strike prairie country devoted al
most entirely to corn growing. The
fodder seems to be left on the ground
either to rot or be burned in the
spring. To an Eastern man this seems
a great loss. There are neither barns
or silos here in which to garner this
immense amount of slower. We
crossed the Mississippi river at Louis
lana, an old dilapidated town, that
would not compare with towns in the
East. The country west is somewhat
rough, with an occasional stretch of
prairie. The hay was stacked in the
fields and the corn was in the shook,
only a portion of it cribbed. 1t SEEM
ed to me that corn put up as it was
harvested there must be damage d
greatly by the weather. The inhabi-
tants seem to turn out almost en- mas
Sc 70 witness the incoming of trains
at the stations. 1t is a weIl-known
fact that the average train watcher is
not the best representative of his
locality, we will be charitable enough |
to suppose that those we saw at the
stations along this route were no bet
ter tnan those who were at home.
Certainly there is not the thrift and |
neatness here that may be found far
her eastward.
We arrived at Boonvilie, where we |
found B. F. Jones Warrington us, and |
we were driven in bus to his home |
on Main street. Mr.. Jones and wife |
were well-known in Glover years ago,
but have resided here since some
time before the war. They saw con- |
siderable of the war, both in serious
fighting and in bushwhacking. 1t was
here that the lamented Gen. Lyon
taught his fl rst battle. Mr.. Jones lisa
building contractor, and his two sons,
located here, are doing business with
him. This town is situated on the
Missouri river, not far from the GEN.
ter of this great state. The city is
built on high bluff on the south side
Orleans County monitor. [volume] (Barton, Vt.) 1872-1953, 1897-02-22

of the river. 1t is not very growing
town. There has been two weeks,
here thus far this winter, which could
be called cold weather. A snow which
came some days since melts fast
enough to keep the roads in a poor
condition, making it neither sleigh
ing nor wheeling; but we expect the
spring will open hero soon.
Truly,
III. p. KING.

LETTER FROM ILLINOIS.

Dear Monitor.-My first letter was
dated at Washington, n. ]. 1t ought
d. Sidney Frost, of whom mention
was made, had formerly been resi-
dent of Glover, and that he was a
brother of my wife, Mrs. King. We
left that place for Toledo, Ohio, Jan.
26. We saw little of the country until
the next morning when we strnck
western New York and the great and
busy city of Buffalo. There was snow
enough in this section for sleighing
and the weather was quite winterish.
We were hurled through the country
at a very rapid rate on one of the
great railway thoroughfares and ar
rived in Toledo in the early evening,
where we found the Carpenter boys,
who went from Sheffield about twenty
seven years ago. They have good
positions on the railroad as engineers
and have pleasant homes in the city.
Their mother is with them. We stop
ped two nights in this city and took
in some of the important sights. 1t
is a great grape country in this Sec
ton and we visited a wine cellar in
which there is one wine reservoir,
very large keg, which contains $4,000
gallons of wine We assembled three
flights of stairs to reach the top of it.
This is large and important city on
the Maumee river. There is an ap-
pearance of thrift and wealth through
this section of Ohio.
We set out for Chicago and put up
at the Sherman House where we
found j. @. King, brother, in rather
DOOR health, and soon to go to South
ern California where he Will spend
the remainder of the winter. Mr.. King
has been a resident of this city for 40
wears, has grown up with it in years
and in wealth. He is connected with
several of the great enterprises of
CITY and is reputed to be wealthy. We
were much interested in a greatsmeet-
ing of the survivors of the Army of
the Potomac who held meeting with
a banquet at the Sherman House,
which was great thing in numbers
and In patriotism. Some of the wealth
er has been very severe since we
reached Illinois and the suffering
among the poor in Chicago was great.
The CITY government took the matter
in hand and thousands and thousands
were fed at the expense of the city.
Chicago people are honored and
gratified in the selection OF cabinet
officer by President elect Mckinley,
who has selected Lyman Gage, very
prominent banker. and business man,
for the position of Secretary of the
Treasury. He is a man of excellent
repute here.
We left Chicago after very pleas
sojourn there for Roodhouse, ILL.,, a
station on the G. & A. r. R. Here we
found Mr.. A. Frost and his sons on a
fine prairie farm, which is devoted to |
fancy stock raising. They raise fast
horses, but Poland China hogs are
selling better than fast horses now
They are getting 500 for some of the |
pigs. At this writing there is some
snow with very pleasant weather. |
The country is very level about here,
the land being excellent for corn, but
not good for grazing purposes. Hard
times are felt here and there is no
great boom in land or in anything |
else. More anon, FL. P. KING.
