manufacturer


In the early days of the nineteenth
century, Alexander Won Humboldt, the
great German traveller and scientist,
called attention to the feasibility Of
constructing canal across Nicaragua.
In 1925 the congress of the ,so-called
United States of Central America de-
creed the digging of an interoceanic
canal through Nicaragua.
In 1926, Henry Clay, then secretary of
state. ordered an examination of the
route.
In 1885, the senate of the United
States passed a resolution in favor of
the canal, and a Mr.. -Biddle was de-
puted by President Jackson TO explore
the route.

One ease of varioloid, by some
termed smallpox, has thrown the
citizens of Lewistown into a high

ARGUS deplores that any foundation
whatever should exist for causing

There are many different kinds of
touches. There are the "hot touch, 4"
the rush touch, which is the "hot

A "hot touch' or rush touch" is

reporter ignorance. well, should
say it did. When mans been liv-
ing in the city any time, he hasn't
got any use for shiny shirt fronts
and likewise the collars and cuffs
that 60 with them. Take yap
from the raw districts, and the first
thing he wants to put on when he
strikes the, town is a shirt he can
see himself in the bosom of. Then
he wants his cuffs to glisten to
match, and his collar is a rank fail
ure if it doesn't look like it had been
soaked overnight in an enamel
bath. That's for the first half dozen
washes or so. Then he begins to
think different, depending on the
kind of society he trains with, and
pretty soon he asks for domestic
finish, and it amt long after that
until he begins to think that shiny
shirt front is something positively
dreadful, and if we happen to get
the least bit of shine on his stuff
he wants to slug somebody. A real
ly and truly swell, don't you know,
would blamed sight rather be seen
drunk at social function than to
be seen there wearing linen with
shine ON it.
Still there are some right nice
men yet living who like to have
shiny linen. They are mostly old
fellows, and they like the shine be-
cause 1t looks cleaner after little
wear. Of course these old chaps are
of the left overs, the style once be-
ing with everybody to have shiny
linen. That's where the laundry ran
out the washerwoman, who hadn't
the machinery to shine with, and
she lost her customers. She's COM
ing in again though now, for the
shine isn't the thing any more, and
no machine laundering is equal to
the hand work for real swell finish.
The country laundry is yet doing
the bulk of its work with shine
on, and the countryman, like the
one you just saw go out. is known
by the polish on his linen. De

degradation of Capt. Dreyfus will be
definitely abandoned.
The judges appear to have accomp-

which gives satisfaction to the gem

cause. they do not wish to be brought
before the supreme court, where the
verdict is sure to be auashed. So they
are ready to yield on all minor mat

"A movement IN the same direcuon IS
