A great revolution in wearing apparel
has taken place between the days OF the
ancient linen "duster'' ard its most mod
ern successor, the taffeta silk dust cloak.
ANYTHING used to be considered good
enough to travel in. and the woman who
wouldn't for worlds have made fright
of herself anywhere else, did it with per-
feet eouanmity on the railroad train. The
linen garment universally prevalent
was universally unbecom!ng. whether In
its lank. untrimmed variety that the coun-
try cousins wore. or the more elaborate
braided and buttoned affair of city origin.
But all of this attire now belongs to a
deep-buried past. The fashionable woman
travelling to-day bears about much re-
semblance to her sister OF the long ago

and Anxiety Cause Wrinkles.
Many young people have disagreeable
habit Of frowning and scowling and as
they grow older the creases formed will
become fixed. Profound meditation. deep
study. worry and anxiety all cause wrinkles
and mostly In the upper part of the face.
OF course. we know that a face without
lines would be expressionless, but there is
little danger of any effort on our part
erasing too many. Enough will remain .f
We do all we can to obliterate them. The
skin in youth Is not only firm, but elastic.
and hence the momentary expressions. even
later years the elasticity is lost, and ex-
pressi,ns oft repeated form permanent folds
in the skin.

Another County Heard From.

Another County Heard From.
Another county has been heard from
in reference to the ball game recently
played in Chappell by the Julesbnrg
team and Lodge Pole -Chappell team
This time it is Deuel. county that rises
to explain the overwhelming defeat Of
the Lodge Pole-Chappell club at the
hands Of the Julesburg club. The ex-
PLANTATION is attempted by the editor
OF the Register, through the columns
Of his paper.
In this explanation the Register
editor shows great lack Of originali-
ty. He follows the time worn custom
Of placing the blame for defeat upon
the judge OF the contest. In a prize
fight the defeated contestant usually
charges the referee with unfair decis-
ions; 10 ball game the umpire Is gen.
erall, charged with showing favorit-
ism to the victorious team. In ninety
nine cases in every hundred these
charges are bsseless; they are sdvanc-
ed solely for the purpose of furnishing
a flimsy excuse for decisive defeat.
Ia this class are the charges Of Editor
johnson. He evidently goes upon the
theory that q poor excuse is better
than no excuse, and he proceeds to ex-
plain the defeat OF the Lodge Pole
Chappell team by charging unfair
treatment. You have another guess
coming, Bro. johnson.
The editor of the Register objects to
the term. mavericks which we ap-
piled to the members OF tine Lodge
Pole-Chappell club; he thinks we were
unduly exclted when we used the term,
and that we did not mean what we
said. You are wrong again, brother.
We were not unduly excited when we
wrote the word mavericks" to de-
scribe the aggregation OF alleged ball
players which the Julesburg club wal
loped 90 beautifully in Chappell re-
ceutly. We applied the word "may-
ericks" because we believed that it
described the Lodge Pole-Chappell
players better than any other word we
might use. Our esteemed brother ed
itor certainly understands the mean
ing Of the word maverick" The
word is usually applied to an unbrand-
ed or ownerless critter Of the COW
species, although we believe it can be
applied to an ownerless member Of
the human species. The men who
played in the Lodge Pole-Chappeli
team belonged neither to the Lodge
Pole ball club, nor TO the Chappell
club. they belonged to no organized
base ball club, hence the word ''mav.
erick" describes them better than any
other term. At least this is our be.
lief, and before changing it we will
have to be ''shown" our error.
