COOPER rs PLEASED.
clad the Council das Taken Action to
Secure the Mygatt Property.

Congressman FL. A. Cooper left Ra
cine Thursday afternoon for Washing
ton, to make arrangements for his
work at the coming session of Congress-
Just before his departure he was seen
by the reporter of this paper and was
informed that the Kenosha City Coun-
Gil had taken steps to secure the pur
chase of the Mygatt property. Con-
gresham Cooper was greatly pleased
with the action and said it would
facilitate matters in obtaining an APP
preparation for the Kenosha harbor at
the coming session of Congress. He
said that he had every reason to believe
that the rivers and harbors committee
would report faVorably on the apprO-
priatiOn.
Congressman Cooper is going to
Washington a week before the session
opens to look after his interests in re-
gard to the craftsmanship of the rivers
and harbor committee Mr.. Cooper
said he expected quite fight over the
craftsmanship, as several eastern Con
gressmen were in the field against him.
He said he thought, however, there
was no doubt as to the result, and the
craftsmanship of the committee would
come to this district.
A number of large appropriations for
rivers and harbor purposes will be
asked for at the approaching session of
Congress, but Congressman Cooper
said he hardly thought this would in
any way lessen the chances of an ap-
for the local work, as it was
needed as bad as at any place in the
country. From the conversation with
Congressman Cooper we think we are
safe in saying that the interests of
Kenosha are in good hands and the
of the harbor at this
point is only question of a short time.

A Sure Sign of Group.

Hoarseness in a child that is subject
to Group is a sure Indication of the ap-
proach of the. disease. If Chamerlain's
Cough Remedy is given as soon as the
child becomes hoarse, or even after the
croupy cough has appeared, it will
prevent the attack. Many mothers
who have croupy children always keep
this remedy at hand and find that it
saves them much trouble and worry.
1t can always be.depended upon and is
pleasant to take. For sale by Stark

HERE'S THE NEW LAUGH.

+H cal Ripple of Merriment.
. (New York Herald.)
If the proverb, Laugh and the world

hoped that the world will adopt the new
laugh. For the New York society girl
who delights in doing new things each

has devised one, and she has scored an
emphatic success with it. Distinguish
eddy a great measure of difference
from the traditional merry f"Ha, hal"
it is a laugh to be3taken notice Of.
1t is not SO much a laugh to tell the
truth-though it is intended to do duty
as one-as it is a. ripple of merriment.
The smart NewJYork girl this sum
rner makes no noise at all with he"
laughter. She keeps her mouth closed.
her lips Well together. But over
these lips steal. when She is amused.
something that is more thar a smile.
it is a laugh all but the sound, all but
rhenpening of the mouth and the show
ing of thet teeth. 1t is fur and anilse-
ment personified. but it is all in silence.
The world in general, society thinks
might very we'll copy this, for it shows
off girldom much better. There are ut
longer shrieks Of laughter to be heard
from porches and piazZas in the sum
mer. n giggles nave been banished
once n for all. sg tss1 taraH..t
Snciety's mothers have been the fact
ors in accomplishing this. in planning
the new laughter. How they came to
bring it about is an interesting story.
1t has long been Whispered about So
ciety thai the young girls in it We're
making altogether too mUch noise, that
their gayety was MOI subdued enough.
The question OF what true refinement
was was commencing to get raised.
Finally society's mammas came down
with a heavy hand. AT once the new
regime was instituted.
So, if. while sunmering. you meet
with a girl who seems only to smile It
your Witticisms. be assured that she is
in the fashion and has learned very
lately the lesson of how girls should
laugh in 1898.
