and later from Gallaudet College.
For several years he has been an in
structor in the state school, and dur
ing that time has acquired speech,
being able now to express himself in
faultless English, although enable
to hear a word spoken within his
recollection. He has devised meth
cd of teaching language to the dear
which is proving successful. lie Is
president of the State Deaf Associa-
ton. chairman of the Industrial Sec
ton of the Convention of American
Instructors Of Deaf, being reelected
to both those positions recently at
meetings held in Lacrosse, WIS. and
Buffalo, y. Y. respectively.
With the example oil these two
men before them, the boys OF Amer
lea should be stimulated to strive
for the attainment of any desirable
goal, uuswerved by any obstacles.
They are an honor to their country
and the friends and neighbors oil
their boyhood may properly feel
special pride in them.

Archibald Campbell Die. Suddenly.
Won. Archibald Campbell, wide

Hon. Archibald Campbell, widely
own and honored as one of the
worthiest pioneers and most forceful
characters of Iowa county, is no
more. On the morning Of Tuesday,
Aug. 20, lie was stricken with paral-
ysis, and at o'clock In the afternoon
OF the same day he expired. Up to
the evening previous lie was in usu-
al health.
Few names We're more familiar to
the people of Iowa county than that
of Archibald Campbell, and in every
town there are mourners for bis
death. He was man of sterling in.
tegrlty, clear intellect and uncom-
promising convictions, such as win
leadership and command respect a
mong fellow men everywhere. Even
those who differed with him, (and a
man OF his type inevitably has diff
ferences) could but recognize his
manly worth, and now join with his
personal friends in regret that his
useful life is ended.
Mr.. Campbell was born on Prince
Edward Island, in 1923. Acquired a
fair English education by his own
efforts, fitting him as teacher of com
mon schools in this country, which
he did for some time after coming to
America. He came to Wisconsin in
1853, settling near Blue Mounds,
where he made his home afterwards.
He was an enthusiastic supporter of
the Union cause during the civil
war, and served one year as Il SOL
der, leaving wife and several small
children to do so. He took active
interest in public affairs, and for II
major part of his life in this county
held public offices, in all of which
he acquitted himself honorab,y
and with profit to the people. For
"A dozen years or more he represented
his town on the county board, and
served one term as state senator.

HER ANSWER.

They were old friends, but they hadn't
met
In many, many years;
And the tide of life had hurried on,
With its joys and hopes and fears
But both the women had met at last
Old playmates once again,
They talked Of girlhood's dreams, now
past
It's buoyant hopes. now slain.
''Ah. Kate" said Madge, you're not the
same
You've lost your charm Of face .."
You've lost your pretty, rosy cheeks
You've lost your form Of grace.
Your chestnut hair has turned to gray,
Your lips have lost their red;
All things are changed-and soon our day
Will turn to night instead"
''Dear one.' Kate said, 1--WE nothing lost,
For here's my hair Of brown

been Wall street, and the largest re-

But while that street is type OF
tried integrity on one hand it is also
type of unbounded swindle on the
other. There are the spiders that wait

MODERN OLD MAIDS.
So Much Improved That the Term
"Old Maid" Seems Doomed.

So Much Improved That the Term
cold Maid" Seems Doomed.
Considered as a wife and mother,
there is small proof of average supe-
riority in the women of this century
over those of any other century,
but looked at as spinsters, as "old
maids" women have developed with
in the last so years an entirely new
and admirable type, owing to the re-
Gently acquired freedom and extern
sion of female thought and action.
Formerly the "old maid" was ex-
pected to marry anyhow, irrespec-
tive of desire. What else was there
for her to do? Marriage or super
fluity, those were the alternatives
placed before her in the cradle.
And, true enough, she had small
choice of occupations. In America
particularly there is now a large
body Of single women who are de-
! lightful people; cultivated without
being pedantic; cheerful, but not
hysterical; helpful, not ofiicious,
and these are not necessarily pro-
fessional women either. They chief
lly belong to class of cultivated
people with comfortable means, in
herited by these unmarried women,
who, thus provided, can live indie
pendently and travel extensively,
never once feeling in any ones way
or allowing that the mere legal con-
dition of matrimony could in the
least dignity their lives-which it
certainly could not devoid of mari
tai sentiment. These women are
never idle. Their industry competes
with that of their professional sis
ters working for daily bread. They
are prime movers socially and char
itably
The opprobrious title of cold
maid" loses distinction every day
and bids fair to eventually be buried
amid other relics of barbarism
Higher education represented by
the requirement of facts has little to
dowith this improved condition. But
the higher education, upon which
has been erected a liberal, democrat

emily responsible for this admirable

NEW WAGON GREASE.
A Combination of Castor and Other

A Combination of Castor ana Otner
Vegetable Oils-Meets With Ready
Sales.
Mitchell Wagon Grease, which we are
advertising, WAS originated as matter
of necessity. We have been handling
axle gtease for several years, and have
never been a0le to get high grade
grease of superior quality that would
give perfect satisfaction. We then had
a grease put up under our own brand,
"Mitchell," which is made OF combi-
nation Of castor and other refined vege-
table oils, which does not gum or melt ;
contains no petrolatum, rosin or earthly
matter, which are injurious to machin'
cry. Before putting this grease on the
market We gave it thorough trial, and
VIC haze something that when once in
troduced will give the best satisfaction.
We find to create demand for piece
of goods that quality has to he consider
ed. As we buy in large quantities, we
are able to supply the best at reasonable
prices. Our experience has been that to
advertise and push an inferior article is
time and money wasted, whereas to put
on the market an article that stands on
it's merits, is labor and money well ex'
pended. as results will surely follow.
