We are expecting better train
service at this station after the first
of December. In addition to the
trains we already have we think
there is good reason to hope that
No. Z, the south bound fast mail
at 6:15 in the morning and No. 2,
north at SAP in the morning, will
stop here. These trains, with what
we now have, will give us good
service.
The washwomen of this city
Ihoua f0rpooI n oop,I,oo o,J -o;ool
the price of the family washing
from SOC to 75c and no one should
kick. It's time poor laborers were
getting better paid for their work.
These poor women, for they are
poor, usually widows, with fami-
lies to support, have to pay from
25 to so cents a load more for wood
than formerly and everything else
in proportion and they certainly
should have more for their work.
Those who hire this kind of work
done are better able to pay more
than the poor women are to do it
for less.-FredericktoWn Tribune.
Married-At the home of the
BRIDES parents in Steelville, Mo-,
on Wednesday, November 25th
1908, Mr.. Claude Bass and Miss
Pearl Stafford. The bride is the
daughter of MI. and Mrs. Jos.
Stafford, for many years residents
of Pilot Knob, and a niece of Mr..
Fl. M. Collins of this city. She is
a most estimable young lady and
has many friends here who wish
her every happiness. The BRIDE
groom is one of the most success
full merchants in Crawford county
and has a bright and promising
future. The ceremony occurred at
1880 o'clock in the morning. The
happy couple boarded a morning
train for St. Louis whence they
left Thursday for the east on a
bridal tour.
Long years ago the celebrated
Phineas T. Barnum made use of
the expression that "The American
people like to be humbugged."
There was ample evidence of the
accuracy of Mr.. Barnum's state
ment at the Academy of Music
Tuesday night when that edifce
was packed ''from pillar to dome'
to witness a production of "Ten
Nights in a Bar Room" The show
was absolutely without merit.
There wasn't an actorin the bunch
and the performance was a fake,
pure and simple. Not satisfied
with a $3.50 house, long about the
middle of the evening, the man.
agement announced an "after
piece" admission, ten cents. The
Eiler people were out for the
money, and they got it, so we sup
pose they are satisfied with their
visit here. But we do not believe
a full house would greet them on
a return trip.
The seasons como and go, times
change and men and women
! change with them, the here of to-
day is the there of tomorrow,
nations rise and fall, joy succumbs
to grief, death conquers life, but
the cow-the COW with her tin
tinnabulating bell - is with us
always. In summers sun, mid
winters SHOWS, here and there and
everywhere, her bell it's tale OF
sorrow tells and the devoted ear OF
man has not whittier to flee from
it's infection. For behold! our
Grand High Councillors are with
her, as [ in my heart do wish she
might ever be with them, and them
l only. Ii she were true as she is
persistent, 'twould be so; but.
after the way of her sex, she in
consistent fees the friends she has
, to bestow her attentions upon the
alien and the foe. IT'S true, 'tis
! pity, and pity it's tits SO.
