and been astride of her sooner than he.
Without saddle or bride, but with only
a rope halter and sheep-skin to serve
as equipment, the old man went along
that road leading southwark, like a
courier, with a message Of life to some
doomed culprit. Perhaps that was his
true character that morning; for, by 10
o'clock a. m. dozen Grand Army men
were already assembled, and the other
half-dozen were momentarily expected
At ten minutes after 10 o'clock, Mr..
Campbell returned with the informa-
tion that he and Judge NARROW had got
the flag from Vaughn and replaced it on
the staff, and that Vaughn had vowed
to die rather than to replace it him
self.
A New Occasion for Trouble.
For the next two weeks it was thought
that this episode would end all difficulty,
when suddenly a new flame blazed up
and came very near to causing blood
shed. Two young men of the Illinois
crowd, came to the store one afternoon
and after some good natured chatting be-
tween them and Mr.. Kincaid, one Of
them all at once gave evidence Of
wishing to quarrel. Kincaid in a
kindly manner, requested him to desist,
but that seemed only to embolden him.
Then drawing dirk and brandishing
it, he asserted that he had come to
"bury it's blade in the heart of some
-before dark" Buckeye, who was
at the grocery counter on the opposite
side of the room, sprang to Kincaid's S
assistance and dealt the young man a
straight tright-hander that shot him head
long into the road. Then Selling the
dirk he inserted it's blade into crack in
the building and broke it off at the hilt.
In the meantime the other chap had be-
gun to make threats to kill Buckeye if
he should break the knife, and Joe
Kincaid had seized him and was hur-
rying him off down the road, before
Buckeye could procure a gun from be-
hind the counter. A week or so after
this occurrence, and when the COM
munity had about recovered from the
attempted deadly assault at the store,
the Rev. Alexander Campbell Bender,
who lived at Patosi in Kansas, and
who was brother -in-law to couple of
the Missouri guerillas, foolishly stirred
up all the slumbering fires and resent.
ments in the community, and mad.
vertently fastened the climax and end
of all trouble. Rev. Camp" Bender
as he was familiarly known, had lived
there near the Kansas line during the
civil war, unmolested by either side, land
as sort of hostage for the good be-
bou;or of hic +xuo brOt horc in law tO
The Conservative, 1901-07-25
An Event Forthcoming.

Far and near, spread the news OF that
nights event at the store, and from far
and near, on the next Sabbath morning,
came people to witness the event in
McHenry's grove. On that morning at
8 o'clock, Buckeye unattended, left
the store on foot with a beautiful,
bunting flag of goodly size, flying grace
fully from the staff over his head, to

TIE PRINCESS AS A COOK

When the ghost of the servant problem
rears its gaunt head in the palace of the
king Of Spain. the royal ladies, not one
whit affrighted, are equal to the emer-
gency. They have proved themselves so.
Not long ago there was a strike in the
palace kitchen. 1t lasted but day, but
then, as everybody knows. 1t is an ex-
IRENE annoyance to have ones supply of
provisions cut off even for day. The
cooks departed and the upper serv-
ants were too panic stricken at the pros
pect to be of any use in their places.
One of the infantas, the sister of the
king, calmly took the helm. She went out
and purchased a cook book. BY it's aid
and with the help of the sisters she con-
cocted the one hot dish of the day, which
was served with the cold meats and pre-
serves.
The infantas have been brought up by
the queen regent not to despise domestic
duties and their housewifery skill is q
matter of pride with them.

world are American Indian squaws. Out
on the reservations in Oklahoma, Kiowa
and Comanche and Ponca society lead
ers are wearing gowns worth $500, $3.50
and $500 apiece. ''i.''-
Buckskin and buffalo hides constitute
the foundation materials, but these are
heavily ornamented. The decorations
used are large elk teeth, which. because
of their increasing scarcity. are very
valuable, and pearls.
The leather, which Is soft and pliable,
is made up into comfortable fitting skirts
and loose waists. The bottom Of the
skirt is trimmed with a row OF gold
braid. and about the belt is string
of pearls. In addition the bodice Is hung
with as many elk teeth as the wearer
can afford, at from IS to SO apiece. a.,
One gown has a hundred teeth adorn-
ing the bosom, and as many as 200
are sometimes used. Red satin IL 9
favorite lining, and yellow and purple
silk are also used. 49,
So the love of pretty clothes doesn't
all emanate from Paris and London and
New York. 1t seems to spring eternal in
the feminine breast even in the West
ern wilds and equally among savages
as among civilized womanlkind.

tiple microbe organisms-some patho-
genie. others indifferent-exist in the
mouth. and have a latent life there. In
Il healthy subject the constitution Is pro-
tected against their morbid action by a
triple system Of defense-the continuity
of the epithelium of the cheeks, the
saliva and mucous Of the mouth, and,
lastly, by an apparatus composed Of
closed follicles surrounding the pharynx
and the cervical ganglions. Injury to the
mucous membrane, deterioration and in
sufficiency of saliva are open doors to
infection.
1t may, therefore, be said that hygiene
of the mouth occupies an important
place in the prophylaxis of disease The
ignorance of the public as to these facts
can only be explained by it's Indifference,
for out Of a series Of 200 persons Of
every country examined in a state clinic
only about 100 were found who took care
Of their mouths.
Apart from the special care necessi-
tated by decayed teeth, to which, with
out doubt, are due most Of the septice-
mic accidents, 1t Is necessary to assure
asepsia of the mouth by means Of anti
septics. Not that varieties Of dentifrices
are lacking, but q judicious selection is

microbe by an energetic oxydation. It
ought to be used after every meal in a
solution Of one-tenth in glass of water.
Microbes Of the gums and stomach are
radically cured in a short time with per-
manganate Of potash, in doses as above
indicated, sterilizing without irritating
the mucous membrane.

anti-septic, deodorizing, exciting and
haemostatic properties have been justly
lauded.
