The above is a very good cut of Mr..
Henry G%ustafson, who has recently
accepted a position with the Golden
Eagle Clothing House of this city.
He is n of the best known sales
men in this part of the state and has
a local acquaintance that is the envy
of the politicians. Mr.. G~ustsfson has
come TO be well known and liked
through personal merit. He has been
in the clothing business of the city
for a number of years and has come
to popularity through his untiring
efforts to please his trade. Everyone
likes "Henry" and when they buy of
him they know that what he tells
them is to be relied upon. Mr.. GUS
tafson is now better than ever able
to serve..his friends in giving them
what is best. With a stock like that
of the Golden Eagle from which to
select there is now no limit to what
Henry can do for his customers.
Call on him at the new place when in
the city no matter whether you need
goods or not.

"Vox Populi, Vox Del Est"

EDITORS HERALD:-If there is any
truth in the oId saying "VcT populi,
GoT Del est" then certainly the
Board of Education should not for
a moment hesitate TO rescind the
action by which they lowered the
wages of our city teachers. The ex-
preston of surprises at such action is
very general. That surprise would be
serious indignation but for the belief
that the Board acted in good faith,
and merely mistook the sentiment or
the people.
Now that they understand, as they
must, that the people who elected
them and whose servants they are,
desire good teachers and desire that
such teachers be we'll paid for their
work, their action is not hard to
predict. They will rescind the reso-
luton.
Taxes are high, retrenchment may
be needed, but at the schools is not
the place to begin such reforms. We
are taxing ourselves for a railroad in
the interests of trade, such a tax
would have been vetoed by the voice
of the people, had they supposed that
increase of taxation there would be
offset by a decrease in teachers wages.
The preparation for a teachers
work nowadays is long and expen-
sive. Those who engage in it success
fully are skilled laborers in the strict
est sense of the word, and they have
a right to demand a compensation in
proportion to their fitness. They do
demand it. 0skaloosa a not hold
the best of teachers unless they pay
the best of wages. What all the citi-
zens of the town wish is the best OF
labor suitably compensated. The best
is none too good for u children.

From Hot 10 Cold,

Dysentery is prevalent everywhere
in summer and is due to miasmatic
poisons, and begins abruptly with in
hammation of the mucoue lining of
the large bowel. In America the
disease Is common, but properly
treated does not result as seriously
as in the tropics. Perry Davis Pain
killer is the best known remedy and
the most efficacious in the treatment
of dysentery.

IN MEMoRIAM.
1t having pleased the Supreme Ar
chitect of the Universe to permit our
beloved brother and fellow worker,
Wallace w. Haskell, to be removed
by death, it is fitting that the mem
bers of Tri Luminar Lodge No. IS, A.
f. and A. M should place on record
their appreciation of his splendid
character and sincere devotion to the
principles of our Order. We deeply
and sincerely mourn the loss of our
brother thus so suddenly cut down in
his strong manhood and in the flower
of his usefulness. We recognized in
his character as exemplihed in his
daily life those qualities that are the
makeup of a true man and a Just
and upright Mason, and whom we
admired for his many virtues and the
example of his life.
We hereby extend to the bereaved
family this expression of our v
ence for his memory, and our heart
felt sympathy for them In their deep
sorrow, invoking the consolation only
to be found in the providential care
of Him in Whom we live, move and
have our being.

WONAM'S POSITION IN SPAIN.

WONAM'S POSITION IN SPAIN.
Women in Spain had no part in
the emancipation of sex that has
taken place in most European
countries in the last century says a
writer in the Fortnighly Review:
LAS factor in social life she stands
entirely IN the background; man has
the predominant inufedce and the
p ostion of woman is an entirely
subordinate one. To the foreigner
the first sign of this is visible in the
absence of that easily homely spirit
of hospitality prevalent in other
countries and which owes SO much
of it's character to female influence.
In this matter the ideas of the
Spaniard retain a flavor of Oriental
i SIN which the progress of time and
the general adv ance of civilization
around him have been unable to
disipate. He possesses what we
should call most limited views as to
the sphere in which woman should
move. He thinks that a good wife
should have no interests which may
distract her from the duties Of the
household and hence these duties
the chief among them being the
care and bringing up of children
from the chief occupation of the
Spanish lady.
Any unusual development of in
telect in woman is held by puplic
opinion to be unfeminine and the
proportion of intellectual women
in Spain is remarkably small. The
majority of Spanish girls are quite
uncultivated in our modern sense Of
the word except az regards hand
embroidery, music and dancing for
which the race has considerable
aptitude. Half a century ago the
photography of large PERCENTAGE
of we'll born Spanish ladies would
not have come up to the standard
of one of our elementary school
boards. The education of a Spanish
woman has indeed improved duri ng
