of Illinois, this afternoon succeeded in in
grating an amendment upon the war reve-
nue. bill of great interest to millers as well
as the general public. 1t is designed TO put
a stop to the sale of adulterated flour s the

A Sad Death,

This con m unity was greatly shock
ed Wednesday morning to learn of the
death of Miss Sophronia Smith, which
occ irred about 3 o'clock that morning.
The deceased was quite popular among
the young peopl. and was a noble
t:pe OF pure womanhood. She was in
tn, :4sh year of her age. She was
taken ill while attending the Worlds
Fair, but improved greatly 'terward.
Later on consumption developed and.
on recent visit to Chicago she was
taken SO i'll that it became necessary
to remove her back to Kentucky She
was the second daughter of Mr.. and

These Young Men Not Needed

When merchants, or business men
OF any kind see that they are going to
need help in their stores or offices and
find that it is necessary to employ
such help. they do not walk out on the
streets among the loa fers, nor into the
saloons or billiard halls to find the
young man to do their work Neither
do they wait to get the scent of a Gig
arctic and follow up its trail in search
of ODD ass stant. Neither are they
looking for the nice young man who is
afraid to do little hard work for fear
it will blister his hands, soil his fin
gers or rumple his clothes While the
busin ,ss man wants help that is neat
and clean in it's habits, yet above all
he wants help that is not afraid to
take hold AMI do whatever is to be
done. 1t would be a good idea for
young men who are out of Employment
to remember some of these things.
No young man who makes a habit OF
frequenting places of evil resort, and
who persists in destroying his mind
with cigarettes need expect to be able
to get anything to do in this world
where muscle and brain are needed.
There is plenty of work for every one,
o. some kind, provided he is willing to
do the work, and furthermore is will
ing to live so as to have the confidence
of those who have the work to do.
