The Real Thing.

you'll come purt near savin my life.
I'll tell you that. "
'Lcok here! Suppose I give you
10 cents for a drink, how do I know
you won't go and blow the money
for something to eat?"

by this question and smiled in a
sickly way.

cast at the special town meeting
held last Saturday. The election
was held for the purpose of voting
on the proposition of making the
Town of Iron River a Free High
School District. establishing a Free
High school therein and providing
for it's maintenance. Of the forty
one votes cast, forty were for and
one against the proposition.
Last Monday Isaac Hubbard pur-
chased Samuel Babb's livery stable
together with it's contents and took
immediate possession Of the same.
1t will be source of qualification
to the many friends of Edwin A.
Snow, Of this city, to learn that he
has been elected to a professorship
in the University of Washington,
located at Pullman, Washington.
He received the news of his election
last Friday. Undoubtedly Mr.
Snow will be the youngest man in the
United States holding professor
ship in University and it is I'M
necessary to say that his many ad-
miring friends in this city and
throughout the state in general will
feel elated over the appointment and
will watch with interest the young
mans career. He left this morning
for Idaho, where he will hunt for big
game for short time before proceed
ing to Pullman to enter upon his
new duties.
A number of citizens have been
advocating the purchase of the
Norway Grove situated just
south west of the village, TO be used
as public park.
A. Ell. Grimpo and Byron Ripley
have employed mining expert and
have a few men at work digging for
iron on their farm one and half
miles north of this city. The ex-
pert says that there is every indica-
ton of iron and he is confident that
it can be found. It has long been
known that there is iron through
out the country lying north of this
city but the ore was never found in
paying quantity.

the Latest Formaiities For the Dinner
Table.

Table.
Gorgeous ornamentation of the
dinner table is conceded to be as bad
form as a colored aunty in the
south. The embellishment-the
ornate, if you will-has been over
done, and now there is a reaction
which tends to simplicity extreme
expressed by handsome center
piece and moderate exposition OF
not common flowers.
A different kind and color of
china with every course are affected
by those whose cabinet is crowded
and who are proud of it, but this
pride has it's limitations among peo-
pie of refinement and culture. This
class does not give dinners simply
to exhibit earthly treasure and
create envy and perhaps covetous-
ness too.
The larger the table napkin the
better. A yard square is none too
big and pleasantly recalls the Pa
risians, whose iberality in damask
is proverbial, but not characteris-
tic in anything else. The material
should be the best obtainable and
the design the most beautiful. Any
lace edging or embroidery, plain or
colored, is just as bad taste as quiz
nine.
Knives, forks and spoons nova
days for almost everything are
somewhat confusing to those who
do not dine out with sufficient fire.
quency to keep up with the con-
tinually advancing procession.
Some of these knives, forks and
spoons are quite unnecessary, not
to say silly, but the business Of the
silversmith must be considered.
Unless fruit be served, finger
bowls are almost obsolete at modern
dinners and are no more neces-
sary part of gastronomic ritual.
Abroad in Germany, for instance,
the use of the vessel for disgusting
additions still obtains, albeit soap
and towel are not provided. It were
better to discontinue any table GUS
tom or fashion that generates vul-
garity.
A man at a formal dinner assign
ed to stake in' a woman whom he
has never met before should take his
conversational cue from her-no
Chinese dissertation of course and
thereby avoid pitfalls to which the
diffident and embarrassed are often
led. Besides, it is woman's adj
mitted privilege to edo all the talk
ing" and she best gives the keynote
at dinners.
s'Should name or place cards at
dinners be retained" ask the un-
sophisticated. "And why?" says the
trained catechist. Because the host
or hostess has had them prepared
in expectation of their being re-
tanned and preserved as souvenirs.
Ignoring them would be disrespect,
and such disrespect under the social
circumstances would be unpardon-
able.-What to Fat.

WHAT SHALL WE EAT.
To keep Healthy and Strong.

To keep Healthy and Strong.
A healthy appetite ard common sense
are excellent guides to follow in matters
of diet, and a mixed diet of grains, fruits
and meats is undoubtedly the best, in
spite of the claims made by vegetarians
and food cranks generally.
AS compared it'll grain and vegetables,
meat furnishes the most nutriment in a
highly concentrated form and is dlgested
anwd assimilated more quickly than veg
etables or grains.
DR.. julius Remusson on this subject
says: Nervous persons. people run down
in health and of low vitality should eat
plenty of meat If the digestion is too
feeble at first it may be easily strength
ened by the regular use of Stuarts Dys-
pepsia Tablets after each meal. Two of
these excellent tables taken after dinner
will digest several thousand grains of
meat, eggs or other animal food in three
or four hours, while the malt disastase
also contained in Stuarts Tablets cause
the perfect digestion of starehy foods,
like potatoes, bread, ETC., and no matter
how weak the stomach may be, no trou-
BILE will be experienced fla regular prac-
tice is made of using Stuarts Dyspepsia
Tablets because they supply the pepsin
and diastase so necessary to perfect di-
gestion, and any form of indigestion and
stomach trouble except cancer of the
stomach will be overcome by their daily
use
That large class of people who come
under the head of nervous dyspepties
should eat plenty of meat and insure its
complete digestion by the systematic use
of a safe, harmless digestive medicine
like Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets composed
of The natural digestive principles, pep
tones and diastase, hich actually perform
the work of digestion and give the abused
stomach chance to rest and to furnish
the body and brain with the necessary
nutriment. Cheap cathartic medicines
masQuerading under the name of dyspep-
STA cures are useless for relief or cure
of indigestion because they have absolute
" no effect upon the actual digestion Of
food
Dyspepsia in all its forms is simply a
failure of the stomach to digest food and
the sensible way to solve the riddle and
cure the indigestion is to make daily
use at meal time OF safe preparation
which is endorsed by the medical profess
sion and known to contain active diges-
tive principles. and all this can truly be
said of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
All druggists throughout the United
States. Canada. and Great Britain sell
them at the uniform price of fifty cents
for full treatment.

some very considerable reactions, and

brought forward into prominence. Ameri-
can Sugar. Peoples Gas and Rock Is

at the opening. The speculative contest
was continued all day with varying for

amongst the Changers, Coalers, Pacifics

had their early period of strength and
were the most important in the late deal

The declines from the highest in other
members of these groups ran from two

special strength in Missouri Pacific had

unsettled conditions of the foreign money

cautious attitude of speculation. The halt
