Des Moines, Iowa, Aug. s-Gov-

lowing Labor day proclamation:
"By the Governor-A Proclama-
ton: Labor is essential to health
and human happiness. Six days
shalt thou labor is as emphatically
divine command as it's corollary,
Remember the Sabbath day to keep
it holy Industry and frugality are
essential to competency. None but
an industrious, frugal, law abiding,
Godtearing people ever was or ever
can be great, even as the world
counts greatness; and such people
can never be other than prosperous,
and strong, and happy. The legis-
lature of the state has, therefore,
done wisely in designating one day
in the year to be known as Labor
Day On that day, the first Mon
day, being the second day of Sep
TENDER, recommend that the good
people of the commonwealth. as far
as practicable, desist from their Or
binary occupations, and unite in
doing honor to that labor which is
the basis of wealth and prosperity.
I'm testimony whereof, l have
hereunto set my hand and caused
to be affixed the great seal of the

QUEEN ELIZABETH's FAULTS
She Was Very Vain and Unfortunately
Fond OF Fine Dress.


Fond OF Fine Dress.
Yet Elizabeth was never really sue
cessful with her wardrobe as a more
feminine woman might have been. Her
dresses We're never beautiful, only lu-
dicrously and most inappropriately
magnificent laden with jewels, weight
ed down with cloth of gold, stiff with
silver embroidery and so heavy that
even her big, powerful frame must,
without supporting vanity. have felt
the fatigue of carrying them about.
Elizabeth was certainly vain, but she
cannot claim femininity merely on that
account, for vanity Is by no means an
exclusively feminine characteristic.
There are perhaps more vain women
than vain men because women have
more leisure and their costumes afford
greater opportunities for vanity than
the strangely hideous clothing which
custom has arranged for men, but no
thoughtful feminine) observer can
doubt that vain man is yainer than a
vain woman.
Elizabeth's hands We're her especial
pride, and, judging from her portraits,
they We're certainly beautiful. They
We're laden with Jewels, and it was her
habit in public to pull her rings off
with absent artlessness and push them
on again, moving those white hands
about in the most obvious way. Once

never took second place, she interrupt

Due d Anjou. who was at one time one
of her suitors, had been told what a

In connection with this last charac-

Iowa State Fair, August 1891.

The new buildings are nearly
complete and the final arrange
ments we'll under way for the COM
ing State Fair. The number of en-
tries received indicates that all de-
partments Will be full, except pos
sibly the Agricultural aud Horti-
cultural departments, which, owing
to the unfavora BILE season, may not
be up to the average, and yet this
should prompt the farmers of Iowa
to make special effort to show what
Iowa can do in a drouth year, and
if they do this, as they can do it,
there will be good display even
in those departments.
All stock departments promise to
be we'll represented and more en-
tries are now made than is usual
for the time of year.
Special efforts have been put forth
looking to the comfort of the public,
including splendid camping facil-
tiles.
Great races may be expected, for
a large field of horses have been
entered. Locomobile races for each
day have been arranged and many
exciting features will be put on.
In the way of amusements more
will be provided than ever before
and of quality. quantity and variety
to please all.
With the best of music, with pleas
ant grounds; conveniently arrang-
ed buildings and all striving to
make the coming fair the best in
the history of the state, great things
may be expected.

Once in the life of every man
there comes along freight train
which, we'll hung onto, wheels to
success. A Jackson county man
man boarded train for Ell Reno for
the purpose of registering. He was
kicked off nine times by the brakes
man, the engineer pumped hot
steam on him, and the fireman
threw Jumps of coal at him, but
still he mounted and rode. And
when the lottery wheel turned his
name came out among the first
hundred, and thus it was that his
persistency had it's reward. But Just
think how many of us would have
quit after being kicked off about
seven times.-Anita Tribune.

The Cass County Veterans Asso-

reunion at Anita, beginning next
Wednesday, August 2lst, and con-

fourth successive reunion of the
association to be held at Anita. The
reason for this is the excellence of
the camp ground and the complete
ness with which every detail of the
arrangements have been made. The
Anita Cornet Band will furnish the
music, and there will be camp fire
songs to remind you of the olden
times. and there will be the pleas
ure of hearing many speeches. And
there will be band concerts each
evening, and camp fire talks at
night. Hacks will be run between
town and the camp ground. Tents
will be pitched early, so all may
enjoy the whole three days and
nights. Meals and lunches will be
served on the ground at current
rate. 1t is the expectation to make
this the best reunion in the history
Of the association. The attendance
in the past has counted we'll up into
the thousands and isexpected to do
so again.-Special to Nonpareil.
