The city council of Sioux City, Iowa, Is
trying to suppress the trailing skirt.
Trains convey disease germs and all
kinds OF filth-you have heard the argu-
ment before. The Sioux ,citians propose
that any woman caught wearing a lorE
skirt on the streets shall be arrested and
it is even limited that the fair sex will
be put into knickerbockers. If the latter
contingency results there may be quite
a pilgrimage of the curious to Sioux City
The proposed ordinance has not become
law yet-and the chances are that 1t will
never do so. Fashion is incontrovertible
and incorrigible.
An old newspaper man has just passed
away in Ohio. The remarkable part of

Do not blame the unfortunate wretch
who blows out his brains after suffering
the horrors of insomnia. No affliction,
perhaps, will sooner drive a man to mad
ness and in all the category of human ills
there is none worse. Think of tossing all
through the long watches of the night,
weary and exhausted but denied. ''slum-
ber's sweet repose;" think Of lying for
hours, now jaded and oppressed, now
tense as a steel coil, the blood coursing
through your veins and your nerves ting
ling with suppressed excitement And
then the thoughts. the rrooping fancies
that harass the tired brain. crowding
upon one another In a never-ending pro-
cession, strange, distorted visions that
whri across In a mental panorama,
vague, indeterminate fears. causeless
anxieties. a horrible loneliness, a presenti-
ment of death. dread of the unseen-no
wonder the victim becomes a maniac or
a suicide. unless there is speedy relief!

ONE coNsoLATIoN.

There once dwelt a hen-pecked man
Who had a hefty wife.
She was so full of fury that
He led a groggy life.
He never laughed nor dared to smile,
He knew no whit of bliss.
When eer his wife threw plates at him
He lodged to make her miss
It's true he had but little fun
And wore a down-cast look,
But still his wife was useful for
She always fired the cook.

The Cleveland Humane society kindly
informs us that husbands are more low
ing and more considerate of their wives
in summer than they are in winter. The
reason advanced is that there is more
work to be done in the summer-contra-
ry to the usual ideas on the subject
and men have less time to get drunk.
Theoretically, one might explain this ex-
cess of affection in the summer on the
score that the family man has not so
many cares to harass and vex. But is
that the case? Humorists tell us that
the ice man takes the place of the coal
man when the weather grows warm; that
a summer outing is as expensive prop
osition as the weather man, the plumber

The term sheets" includes black
plate or the iron that is coated with
tin, becoming tin plate and going into
a world of commercial uses. But the
lighter sheets are not turned, and the
uses of such sheets are multiplying
every year. Building lath, ceiling ma
terial and corrugated roofing are some
of the uses to which untinned sheets
are nut. Plates are largely used in
steel railroad cars, and in the frame
work of large buildings. Much of the
steel wire goes into steel nails, and
into springs of various sorts. The
consumption of steel wire is rapidly
increasing.
This is emphatieally the steel age
Soft steel is king, and it is freely as
serted that more pig iron will soon be
turned into wire than Is now con-
sumed in rails. Perhaps this should
be called the soft steel age, because
development is largely in soft steel.

What Are We Here For?

EDITORS REGISTER:
The object OF this article is to arouse
thought along a line that would be of
benefit to all citizens and property
owners were they to place in active
operation the Suggestions offered.
There appear to be enough people
in the city of Bookings, engaged in
the usual line Of trades and professions,
also those engaged in the ministry are
sufiicient-numerous for a town Of
1000 or 5000 inhabitants. Perhaps
there are enough mechanics1i lii the
shops to respond to the present de-
mands. And as to the instructors the
number seems to keep pace with the
need. The newspapers can certainly
supply all demands.
What then does Brookings need
that she lacks entirely. Get your
answer ready. Then send it to the edi-
tors of the REGISTER and when you
have told what the greatest need OF
the city is, please state how it is to be
secured. In taking notice Of the needs
OF the city, consider if there is any
good property that has deprecated in
value sixty or eighty ~perlcent.and if
the needs were supplied would it.bene-
fit any Of that kind of property by re-
toring its proper value.
There are plenty Of people who are
always ready to a~dvise-with criticism
with telling just how it ought to be
done-when they stand or sitIon the
corners whiting dry goods..boxes.

the laconic expression finds vent.
Now why not come to the front with

ing the value of all property, such as
real estate. say within ten miles of
town. And how would you increase
the trade? Surely the hotels and
boarding houses are not o~vercrowded.
Afe there not some lines of trade that
could do a little more business with
their present facilities if there was a
call for the increase Of trade? What
is the mission of Brookings anyway?
Aside from the college is the pros
perity of Brookings alone dependent
upon what is dug out of the soil by
the farmers? If this is so then are you
satisfied to leave all Of the future
growth and prosperity to the influence
of the husbandman, or have you any
plan potent for success.

For the Larger Pubns School students.

There is no good reason why young
people anxious to be earning something
for themselves should b. idle three to
five months Of the year absorbing all
all the rneanness in the cnlnery and
growing up like rag weeds.
Time is money and opportunity too.
He who would study only in cold wealth
er robs himself of his best chances OF
success by taking twice as long as nee
essary to get ready and beginning so
far behind in the race. It's the fellow
with nothing else to do, and not the
busy man, who suffers most from heat.
Taking a business course, shorthand
or telegraphy during this idle season is
not half SO hard on health or morals as
card parties, s~ocials, late hours and bad
company. Then, when the literary
course is finished, or the busy season
opens up your education is not zone
legged. You can earn a handsome sal
airy.
1t may not be out of place to suggest
that there's no better place to take such
a course than Memphis Commercial
College. 46 N. Second ST., Memphis,
Tenn. Here you can learn the famous
Byrne Simplified Shorthand in three
months or get the course free.
