Comfort Makes Health.

There was time when women
thought they could not have a pretty
figure unless they were uncomfortable.
Now all beauty doctors emphasize the
fact that discomfort means ugliness.
Comfort and health go hand in hand,
and beauty is impossible without
health. And physical discomfort,
moreover, gives strained expression
to the face and tends to bring that
bette noir Of womanhood, wrinkles.

The Boston stores display windows
are the most artistic ever seen in this

are very attractive. The Boston is

The lines of goods they carry are al

You will make no mistake in trading

The officials of the Northern Pacific
have shown their appreciation of the

Every effort is being made to keep the

particularly anxious to keep it on, as
it separates their freight from passen-

MIR. Coburn, secretary OF the state
board Of agriculture, asked for sufi-
cient postage to send out agricultural
reports from bis office. These reports
are recognized all over the world as
the best that are produced. They
are something Of which every Kansan
should be proud and which every
farmer in the state should have. The
machine determined to cut the APP
preparation down to small fraction
Of the amount absolutely required.
Mr.. Coburn had neglected to truckle
to the machine. Patriotism in the
senate prevented this outrage.
Notwithstanding this deep desire
for economy this reform house organ
lied by the machine employed vast

these so-called employees drew full

ABILENE WEEKLY REFLECTOR ABEN NShS MAY 1903 PAGES
Wanted, q House Cleaning.

A member Of the state board Of
charities writes to this Office protest
ing that the board should not be held
responsible for the occasional cases
Of brutality" in the insane asylums.
He adds;
II daresay II a crazy man were to
be turned loose in the REFLECTOR
office, and he should start at you with
the evident intention OF doing you
violence, you would not be conscious
OF the sentiment you express In your
editorial about giving the 'pitiful
uniortunates humanity's tenderest
care You would doub tless be scared
to death and would do just exactly
what some Of our green country boys,
whom we are obliged 10 employ In
the asylums, do when such an instance
happens. They strike before they
think, under the impression that they
are acting in self-defense.
Very true, but II we were receiving
q fat sum from the state for caring
for the mentally afflicted and an in
sane man were brought here he would
be cared for with some regard for hui.
manity. And further. II on atten-
dant strapped him to q board and
pounded him to see him froth OF the
mouth, knocked him down, or admin
istered the "water cure" there would
be seventeen kinds OF q house-clean-
ing mighty quick and we would
expect to be held to strict accounta-
bility for the treatment given. II we
allowed such a thing and tried to
whitewash it and cover IL up to shield
any political boss on earth or to keep
in a job any ward heller whatever
we would deserve the conuemnatlon
and the opprobrium Of every citizen Of
the state. Furthermore, II we could
not so conduct the affair that the
afflicted would have the proper care
we would resign in just one minute
and q half.
The state board Of charities seems
to be nightly worried for fear the
people Of Kansas shall know how the
institutions are run. Let it print the
evidence in full and let people see
what has been discovered. From
what has appeared in the papers it is
evidently pretty bad.
