FAST YOUNG MEN.
They Try TO be sports and Get into
Disgrace.

Oskaloosa was a large town. satur-
day evening. Youths from New Shar-
on, Beacon and Evans were here and
made things lively. The New Sharon
lads could not keep up in the race.
A couple of them became terrible
sick and had to quiet. The police
over looked them and they managed
to get home on the midnight train.
The Evans boys did not get off SO
easily and couple of them were
lodged in jail. Brought before Mayor
Wray this morning they pleaded
guilty to a charge characterization and
were fined So IS each and the money
was paid into the city treasury. A
young man from Beacon who has
heretofore had au excellent reputa-
ton got into gang Saturday even
ing that was too fast for him. He
made an effort to stay with the push
but the pace was too quick. He
spent the night, Sunday and Sunday
night in jail. The young man comes
of an excellent family and his con-
duct upon this occasion was quite
surprise to all who have known him.
The young man was fined five dol
lars and costs and released upon his
own reconizanze to return to his
home and procure the money with
which to pay the fine.

haska county cases:
Matilda Kitzman, appellant, VS..
Samuel Kitzman, ST.; j. t. Scott,

heirs to be equally divided" The
widow was represented by Bolton,

IN MEMORY
of Maggie Robbins who died Nov.
%, 1901.
We shall sleep, but not forever,
There will be a glorious dawn.
We shall meet to part, no, never,
On the resurrection morn.
From the deepest caves of ocean,
From the desert and the plain,
From the valley and the mountain,
Countless throngs shall rise again.
When we see a pleasant blossom
That we tended with such care,
Rudely taken from our bosom,
How our aching hearts despair.
Round her little grave we linger
Till the setting sun is low
Feeling all our hopes have persisted
With the flower we cherished so.
We shall sleep but not forever,
In the lone and silent grave;
Blessed be the Lord that taketh,
Blessed be the Lord that gave,
In the bright, eternal city,
Death can never, never come;
In his own good time he'll call US
From our set to Home, Sweet Home.

THE NEW SCHEDULE.
Additional FreIgbts but Little Change
In Passenger Trains

In the new time cards for the Iowa
Central which became effective Sun
day Dec. % at 1901 O'Clock a. No.,
no radical changes are to be noticed.
The time of the passengers arriving
at and departing from Oskalooss is
materially unchanged.
The Abba passenger that leaves
this city after the arrival of pass
enger train No.6 from the north runs
only as far as Abba and returns to
this city at 2:40, Just ahead of the
afternoon passenger north bound
from the eastern division at three
O'Clock There will be two trains
each way daily between Abba and
Centerville and four trains daily be-
tween Oskaloosa and Abba. The new
freight No. 95 and SO being to and
from Abba.
The Minneapolis time freight, as it
will be called that will be shot across
the state about as rapidly as it can
travel will leave this city north bound
at 1915 p. m. The former famous
freight of the Central, No, 81, will &c
north at 500 O'Clock a. m. No. go
going east, departs at 900 p, m
Nos 81 and SO, between Albert Lea
and Peoria will still maintain their
reputation for fast work.
The new freight, Nos. 95 and 9E,
is made necessary on account of the
increased traffic and the demand for
greater accommodations. The Oska,
loosa yards have been busy before
but the two new trains will make
things all the more lively.

BATHROOM PORTIERE.

is passed through to the back, and
brought up again, not quite close, but
at a sufficient distance to allow an in
termediate stitch being taken back
ward; thus the threads would be laid
alternately first, third, second,
fourth and so on. This gives a better
hold on the material than if they were
laid consecutiyely.
When the whole space is covered in
this way, lay other single threads
across at regular intervals and sew
them down with stitches at even dis
ta1ces. This work requires to be regu-
lar and even, both in laying the threads
and also in the cross threads and the
stitches that hold them down. 1t may
be shaded by using various colors for
the under layers of threads, and work
ing them in after the manner of ordi-
nary shading in stitches of various
lengths, but let them be as long as pos
sible, or it viii look rough.
An embroidered portiere should not
hang too full or you break the con-
tinuity of the design. For an ordinary
doorway the usual double width mate
rial will be found sufficient, and in
making up care should be taken that
1t is heavy enough to hang well. AS it
is to exclude draughts, it should hang
to the ground, and it is sometimes well
to sew weights at intervals along the
hem. The brass rods which open with
the doors are quite the best means of
hanging portiere, for If II has to be
pushed back every time the door is
opened in a very short time the mate
rial will become worn where the hand
naturally catches hold Of it.--N. Y.

Womenas they grow older are trou-
bIed with the deposit offesh about the
neck and chin. This can be prevented,
or at least decreased, by exercise with
the head, especially with the backward
motion, which stretches the neckmus-
Giles. After repeating these a number
of times, the motion from side to side
can be used, and also the rotation Of
the head. These muscles are seldom
put into action by women, so that they
become faced and the fat is deposited
in them. A small amount of exercise
daily regularly persisted in win accom-
plish much more then one would be-
heVe. If unable to take as much gener-
al exercise as is necessary to keep in
good bodily condition have massage
twice a week, If not more. It would be
better to deny ones self some other
things in order to have this great aid
to the maintenance of health, not to
mention looks.-Chieago Daily News.

1t is astonishing how good news will

cases are cropping up that tits almost
impossible to investigate them all,
but we have taken a few in hand and
have given them publicity for the
benefit of our readers. Our repre-
sentative obtained the following state
ment of facts in personal interview.
They are true in every particular and
no stronger evidence can be obtained
than home endorsement:
Mr. d. Westman of the firm of Brom

my kidneys, an almost constant,
steady ache. Now, in my business
where one has to work in different
positions and is required to stoop
most of the time, a lame or aching
back causes a great inconvenience. l
