Paris has at length one woman's
club. What an American girl who
marries a Frenchman may expect can
be judged from the fact that no wife
can belong to even that one modest lit
tie woman's club until she has obtain
ed her husbands written permission to
do SO. She must send the letter of per-
mission with her application for mem-
bership. That is how 1t is In Europe.
But we need not boast ourselves over
much Not even In America has
man got beyond the notion that he
owns his wife, that she is his to
treat exactly as he likes, and this mo-
tion has wrought to women woe unut-
terable.

spirit and purpose is ever to inn prove and elevate, and in matters of business they seek to draw trade to the town and make of the place a point of industrial and business activity; and from daily experience learn that only by and through a strict and careful com bination of the temperate, indus trial and business relations can they hope to achieve the happy end desired.
 Therefore it at once becomes the duty of all men in every com to join hands in every laudable way that will tend to strengthen and prosper. There should be no division or picker ing between the men engaged in urging a higher moral and tenn perate tone or status in a place and that of the men engaged in various business and industrial pursuits. Each should strive ever to strengthen and sustain the other. Their interests are at once allied and neither can afford to malign or disregard the other. The prosperous laborer and gen. eral business man should be sy- anonymous with sobriety and love of order, and stand ever ready to strike hands with those who kind ly and fairly urge for the moral, healthful we'll being of every town and village.
 Along this line Green Forest can ever well afford to strive, and every one should get fully arous- ed to the importance of maintain ing the strictest and best advan- : tages in the way of business and general industrial and social prosperity.

How We Prosper.

In every essential relation all communities should be well bal anced. There should be no line drawn between the truly moral, industrial and businsss advan- tages of any town or city, big or little, for the three are intimately and ever inseparably important each to the other. A community whose people are temperate, in dustrious, fairly economical and regardful of each others welfare, continually beget and m aintain a high sense of order and general self-respect. They seldom, if ever, indulge in misrepresenta- tion or slanderous talk. Their

THE Osage Indians, of the h. dian territory, are the richest nation in the world. There are only 1, ,690 of them. They own 50 miles square of fine, beautiful lands, and the United States government owes them S0, 100000 upon which it pays them 5 per cent interest. Every Osage man, woman and child draws S52 every three months from the govern ment. It is estimated that they are worth S32, cooper capita, and yet they are in debt to the trading posts S7OO,0 900 and the government has made arrangement to pay them enough of the principal to liquidate this obligation. They let white men have their lands those not leased by the govern ment to cattleman-who fix them for farming, pay rental and at the end olive years they revertto the Indians unless the lease is re- newed.

more readily acclimated and seem 20
stand the work as we'll as any. We
have many Argentine horses, but
they do not seem to sustain the rep
utation that they bear at home. The
Argentine horse is a fine animal at
home, and is capable of doing a vast
amount of work; but in Africa he
seems to lose his heart at once, and
is entirely worthless for the service
required Of him.
Many horses have been imported
into South Africa from Australia,
but those seem to be too delicately
bred and are not up to the hard work
that they have to do, so they are a
failure for that service. England is
carrying Russian horses from Odessa
to South Africa. Only a few have
SO far reached Cape Colony. From
what l have seen do not think they
will compare with the American
animals.
DR.. Richardson thinks the British
are very hard on their horses, and
that the heavy loss of animals is due
to this strain. The horses have only
one days rest after sea voyage Of
a month, and are then hurried for
ward to the seat OF war and put into
actual service. They get no rest
from that time until they are worn
out.

After Cattle Business,

The Chicago, Milwaukee and ST..
Paul Railway company is making an
effort to cut into the live stock bust
ness OF the ranges in northwestern
South Dakota and southwestern
Montana, which hitherto has been
the property CT other roads.
In this effort it is said to have
been encouraged by J. Ogden Ar.
mour. and in the event of its being
successful it seems entirely safe to
predict that the Sioux City stock
yards will be largely benefited.
The business very easily could be
fed into the yards here.
The plan of the Milwaukee com.
pany in this new campaign will be
to establish drives to Fvarts, S. D.,
the western terminus OF the system.

STOCK NOTES,

The stockman in the northwest is
fortunate this year. He has good
grass and plenty of water. Ship
ments from the range will commence
soon and from all accounts, the cat
tie will be unusually good in quality.
Stock Inspector Blakey aud Cap
tain Jack Foster arrived last week
from Bull Greek near the Rosebud
Reservation line where they have
been very active the past four weeks
in rounding in about 125 head of cat
tie that were mostly secured from
Sully island about fifty niles down
the river. These cattle have all
had their brands worked over by
the rustlers and many of them are
difficult to deciphcr. 1t is under
stood that large part of them are
cattle that Becker 4 began have a
mortgage on and several arrests are
likely to be made Missouri Valley

Fifteen Thousand Horses and Mules.
A dispatch from New Orleans says:
The South African horse and mule
trade has showna great revival in
the last few days. -Four British
transports have reached here this
week to load with animals for Cape
Town, and four more are to arrive
during the week. One thousand
mules left on the Jamaican yesterday,
500 mules and 500 horses today, and
1900 mules and 1000 horses will
leave tomorrow. The British officers
think the present activity will con-
tinue until Christmas.
The British government has 5000
head Of mules and 1000 horses at
Kansas City, which will be shipped
to New Orleans as fast as the vessels
here can load them. DR.. p. A. Rich,

Effect Of Shortage in Corn Crop,

The average person, who does not
eat corn is lnanifesting little concern
about the possibility of a failure in
the corn crop. The estimated loss
OF 100000, 900 sustained by the far
mers of the west through damage to
crops means nothing to him. The
scare over the shortage in corn effects
only the farmer and the Chicago
Board of Trade, SO far as he is able
to discern.
1t is true that the American PEG.
pie do not eat corn-at least not as
much as they should; it is also true
only a part of the population is en-
gagged in raising corn and only 3
few are interested in the struggles
of the bulls aud bears on the Chi
cago exchange. Indirectly, however
as Secretary Wilson, of the Depart
ment of Agriculture points out, the
entire human family is dependent
upon the corn crop and must be eff
fected by any serious shortage ir
this product.
Every person who eats meat i!
directly concerned in the daily re
ports that are now coming from tn,
great corn belt. The cattle ant
hogs that are raised for the marke
are fed on corn for a good portion O
the year. A failure of any serious
proportions in the corn crop would
mean a big advance in the prices Of
all meats.
The Importance Of the corn crop il
its relations to food supply may b.
estimated by the fact that the tota
corn crop of this country in 1899
largely consumed by live stock
amounted TO 2,O78, 143, 933 bushels
