arch Of the foot win be lacking, which
is so essential to comfort. beauty and
grace OF carriage.
These go-carts In which the childs
feet cannot touch the foot support are
exceedingly dangerous giving rise to
trouble with the legs and often the
spine. Nature built man as IL intend
ed he should be, and the moment that
fashion or custom interferes there Is
trouble. For Instance. the body is so
constructed that without mans inter-
vention It is perfectly poised Any po-
sltion that changes the poise OF the foot
effects the knee, and that affects the
hip. and so the back. Man cannot in
.terfere with nature without suffering
the consequences.
"The dancing position which chill
dren assume when learning with heels
together and the toes turned far out is
exceedingly bad, as it throws the axis
of the body In a wrong position, and
mothers should not allow their little
ones to stand in the very dangerous at
titude"

HeraIds of Cooler DAYS

Although the early autumn with its
Indian Summer days brings a lull in
fashions. there are heralds OF the COM
ing cooler days IN the shop-window
showing OF suitings and heavy woOlen
fabrics. Il Is just this display often
timss. that reminds the fair apostle Of
fashion that there has been a change
of seasons and that the dainty frou-
frou dresses must now be put aside for
n style more suitable to the season.
With this thought one Immediately be-
gins to speculate upon coming winter
fashions and to wonder just how well
the camphor- bound suits and wraps
that are stored away will ft into the
changes In store for them,-whather
they are to meet radical departures,
that will tax ones ingenuity in re-
modelling, or easily manageable ones.
AS yet. there is nothing startling IN the
new fan models. or course, there are
some slight notifications that mark
each recurring season. New twists or
turns here or there-advance hints Of
the winter modes,-are added to our
present fashions and we have our mid
season or autumn styles. Authoritative
advices from designers IN Europe.
whose privilege IL is. not only to ex-
plot new fashions. but also to originate
them predict again for fall and winter
modes, the continuance OF the two
periods that we are all more or less
familiar with. the dlrectoire and the
1880 There is no doubt there will
be further notifications upon the same
foundations. one or two months hence.
for the winter fashions are not launch
ed until quite late I'm the autumn. From
present Indications one may conclude
that there will be the same lavish ex-
travagance IN both materials and trim
mings. as characterized the summer
styles.
One might well say that the sleeve Is
the pivot Of the fashion" and just now
IL one has the leg o'mutton style, Il
little matters how the skirt and bodice
are made. There are no changes IN the
skirts which are full. There are many
Variations OF the charming surplice
lwaist. which was introduced last sea-
lson. 1t is a style that rs becoming 10
most figures and. developed IN light
weight wool or silk with lace or liner

lpearance, Il is not to be outdone. Other
fashions may come and go. leaving but
a passing pang Of regret 10 mark their
transmission. but the shirt waist suit
is Of itself a thing apart. and having
fcome 20 us so readily and stayed with
lus so steadily we are loath to let IL
go. The subject Is little short OF be-
lwildering, the latitude in this direction
being so great that II is difficult to say
with any exactness which IS the style
par excellence.

would have her home reflect the latest

an her old furniture and china, have most

day demands. The quaintness Of design
and OF material which these possess gives
to a home quiet charm, that nothing
else can lend. and is particularly harmoni-
Gus when used with a little old furniture.

MANY ATTEND COURT
Largest Number Of Spectators For a

Not for ten or twelve years has the
attendance at any session Of the coun-
ty courts been as large as 1t has dur
ing the present week. This statement
was made this morning by a court Of
fetal who has been connected with
the county court for more than twenty

why study the BIbIeq

soeialion has asked number OF
prominent Missourians, Why
study the Biblei" DR. E. A. AL.
len, professor Of English in the
University Of Missouri, viewing the
question from a literary standpoint,
gives this interesting answer,
"The English bible Is an En-
glish classic, and no one can make
pretension to literary culture, who
is no, well veFsed in this nOblest
specimen of English prose. To
the student Of English il is of the
richest importance. No literature
Of modern times has been so enTieh-
ed and ennobled by the direct iuflu-
ence of the bible as the literature
Of the English speaking people. II
il is necessary 10 learn classical
NEUROLOGICAL illusions woven into
the English literature, for a greater
reason one must needs be familiar
with the English Bible to appreei-
ate fully the thought and expression
OF many of the finest passages OF
our great Writers. Some of the
greatest masters Of literary prose
MaeauIay, Ruskiu, Newman, Web
s,er TO name only few. have left
on record their Indebtedness to the
English of the bible for the bes,
part Of their taste in literature, and
surely no one, TO quote Macaulay,
from memory, can set up to be a
critic of English literature who has
not the English bible at his hngers'

..Mr. Folk sees cause to echo the
saying Of Gov. Dockery concerning
the mismanagemeut Of the Missouri
state prison. Now we will ask the
Democratic party why certain
leasing system was iuagura,ed in
1873, selling q set Of edyenmrers
the whole prison, including convict
labor, state prison machinery and
fixtures Of all kinds, for the term Of
ten years, at consideration Of SIoo
per annum, said adventures bond
ing themselves in a bond of 81, ooo-
600 to hold the state clear o! all ex-
pense for that period of time, GUST
ing legal contractors for which the
state had to pay damages TO said
contractors in the sum of SIS, 600.
Within two years the state had to
take back the prison in a dilapidated
condition, prisoners were unelolhed,
unied, machinery worn out and the
bond of the lessees was worthless,
and was known to be so a, the time
OF leasing, aud also by the inspee.
tors who approved the bondf For
this great anticipated bonanza the
state was mulcted in the sum Of
$500. 900 one piece of magnificent
management.
"Another thing they never ex.
planned was the large deposits Of
the state funds in the deiunct Mas
tin bank at Kansas City. Probably
it is a part OF the sII, 600, 900 de-
felt.
Another magnificent style of man
was when 495 clerks were
by both houses of repre-
senrahves, when only fifty or sixty
were necessary, the whole number
drawing per diem S. to S. scatter
ed all over the state. Over one
half were school children, drawing
$3.50 each day, not knowing the
fact that their fathers or brothers
were political henchmen and prom
inent in the party, collected for
these innocent employees. One
family Of FIVE in Huntsville received
$3.50 to $3.50 each day during the
session. Three of these were small
girls; this to fulfill the promise to
an old leader. In the aggregate
the clerks payroll was greater than
the combined pay-roll of both
houses. This is a matter of record.
The next question arises. what have
they doue with the s64 900, 900 they
have collected from the taxpayers
of the state during their long con-
troll of the state finaneesi They
can only show the expenditure oi
less than $4,000, 900 to eleemoSY'
nary institutions, about $40, 900, ooc
of state debt paid and ST., 900, ,ooC
to the Worlds Fair. The forego-
ing expenditures are matters of rec
ord. We admit other expenditures
but of minor consequence compared
with the amount collected. From
