STOPPED A RUNAWAY.
Will Montgomery Performs a Merry
.-..... Undertaking.

Will Montgomery, farmer resid-
ing about a mile west of the city,
stopped runaway on High avenue
west, about 1890 o'clock this after
noon. 1t was an act that required a
goodly portion of unauthorized nerve.
Montgomery was standing at the side
of. the street when ne noted the
Rosebud Dairy" milk delivery team
pulling a heavy wagon, running west
on the street. The team was going
at a good pace. Montgomery jumped
out into the middle Of the car track
and shook his overcoat before the
runaways and made them Change
their course. AS the horses went by
him he grabbed the bride of one or
the animals and succeeded in pulling
them down and stopping the trouble.
Montgomery turned the team over to
bystanders and modestly mixed aim
self UP in the crowd so as not to be
seen, and slipped away

What Everybody Says Must Be True.
There is lots of truth in this old
saying. When more than 1000 peo-
pie in Oskaloosa and vicinity are
praising Prof. Mayne Arnold's skill
as an eye-sight specialist, it means
much and is a certain guarantee to
the public of his ability. So many
people have charged Prof. Arnold
with having great skill the Professor
has got to believe it. In fact, after
fifty years Of immense business,
which of course gave him enormous
experience, he is prepared to plead
guilty and acknowledge that away
down in the cellar of his heart ne
actually thinks he knows a thing or
two about eyes.
Prof. Arnold closes mis- business
here April 3. But before going he
wants all of his customers to come
in and get their eyes re-examined and
wishes to give each one an oculist
formula for their eyes and glasses ex-
actly the same as the great city spe-
cialists charge at least fifteen dollars
for The Professor will also present
each customer with little pamphlet
which gives a scientific description
of their eyes and the particular defect
from which they suffer- All this Of
course costs Prof. Arnold time and
money, but it will be entirely free to
mis- patrons, as he wishes to show
them that he is not the kind of a
man to lose all interest in people af-
ter he has sold them glasses and re-
ceived their cash. Liberal boxes of

the terrible curse of Catarrh. This dis
ease is inhammatory in its nature and is
very liable TO affect the membranes and
tissues of any vital organ or part of the
system and produce results which cause
lifetime of suffering and regret.
Men of science and students of medi-
cine have tried in vain for years to find
apositive cure, but it has remained for
one living in our own generation to fin
ally discover what he claims to be a GER
tain remedy for Catarrh of any organ of
the body. His claims are vouched for
by the words of hundreds of people whose
honesty cannot be doubted; peoplerwho
have suffered for years and tried every
other known remedy without avail;
people who had not faith at first but
were finally cured and convinced of the
wonderful power of this new discovery
in medical science.
The famous physician to whom the
credit belongs for this wonderful devel-

ury science is DR.. J. A. Tomas, @3S

few feather hats have appeared.
They are in the popular turban and
marquise shapes, and are little
trimmed. A pretty example was a
turban of green and blue feathers. re-
sembling the palmer peacock plumage.
Around the brim was a band of bright
orange-colored feathers. A stylish mar
feathers very smooth and lustrous,
trimmed with bunch of small ostrich
feathers. Still another black feather
hat was modified sailor with a fexi-
BILE brim, trimmed on the side with q
black paradise tail.
Autumn foliage was shown in a tur-
ban made entirely of red leaves with
wreath of red and gold chrysanthe-
NUNS. This flower has not been devel-
oped according to its possibilities in
millinery. 1t brushes as well as roses,
and shows multiplicity of exquisite
colors. Now that the craze for yellow
and orange has fairly dawned, we may
expect to see more of the chrysanthe-
mum.
Ribbon seems to be one of the most
universal of hat trimmings Turban
Drlms are wreathed with fiat quillings
and box plaitings of satin ribbon, so
attached as not to increase the size of
the hat. Very handsome are the big
bail rosettes made of dozens of ends
OF wide ribbon cut in points. Half a
dozen shades are used in one of these
rosettes.
Wells are not behind in the general
craze for brilliant colors. Among the
new drapery wells to be worn over wide
hats with gauze or net face wells, are
black chiffons with organdie patterns
OF bright roses and other large flow
ers. These wells are bordered with
lnch-wide satin ribbons, black and COL
ored black veil covered with pink
and red roses and foliage had a border
OF pale green ribbon. Orange ribbon
borders are seen. The Powered wells
go ahead of all others for conspicuous
ness, and conservative women will hes
itate before assuming them. Still, with
black or dark colored tailor gown
and simple hat they would look rath-
er well. So much depends on the wear
er as to whether or not a fashion is
in good taste.
