The charges that have been made
that Yankton is the headquarters
of a gang Of thieves and bank rob
bers who have been operating in
various towns throughout this part
OF the state seems to be arouslng
the citizens of our neighboring city
to action. A mass meeting was
held last week to organize a move
ment for putting a citizens ticket
in the field for the next municipal
election. The purpose seems to be
to elect men rather than politi-

science. l will not fadge with the
question again; no., not for an hour"
These three years we're full of glory
and romance, and the poorest family
in England lived through an epic of
such national grandeur as few gen.
erations have witnessed. Yet, amid
it all, the simple domestic lives of
birth, marriage, and death made rich
or barren their homes. Jane Swaffham
had long been able to think of Cluny-
not as lying in a bloody grave, but as
one of the Sons of God among the
Hosts of Heaven. And this consola-
ton accepted, she had begun to study
Latin and mathematics with Doctor
Verify and to give her love and her
service to all.
Matilda's life during this interval
had been cramped and saddened by
the inheritance from her previous
years. Really loving Cymlin, she
could not disentangle the many

turate passion, for. having become
wealthy, the Stuarts would not resign
their claim upon her. Thus she was
compelled, often against her will, to
be aware Of plots for the assassina-
ton OF Cromwell-plots which shock
ed her moral sense, and which gener-
ally seemed to her intelligence exceed
ingly foolish and usless.
She loved Cymlin, but she feared to
marry him. She feared the ~reproach-
es of Rupert, who. though he made no
effort to consummate their long en-
gagement was furiously indignant if
she spoke Of ending It. Then, also,
she had fears connected with Cymlin,
When very young he had begun to
save money in order to make himself
a possible sutton for Matilda's hand.
In the Irish campaign he had been
exceedingly fortunate; he had bought
and sold estates, and exchanged pris-
oners for specie, and In other ways SO
manipulated his chances that in every
case they had left behind a golden
residuum. Jane had told Matilda two
years previously that Cymlin was
richer than his father. and she might

In the meantime Spain was help

spent in plots to assassinate the Pro-

in Parliament begging Cromwell to
assume the ancient office of King, if
only for the settlement of the nation.
He was quite strong enough to have
taken it, and there was nothing I'M

thing he knew we'll, that the title of
King would take all meaning out of
the Puritan revolution, and he could
not SO break with his own past, with
his W spiritual life, and with the
cody men who had so faithfully fol-
lowed and SO fully trusted him.
Why should he fret himself about a
mere word? All real power was in
his hands; the army and the navy. the
churches and the universities, the re.
form and administration Of the law,
and government Of Scotland and Of
Ireland. Abroad, the war with all it's
details, the alliance with Sweden,
with France, with the Protestant
princes of Germany, the Protestant
Protectorate extending as far as
Pennsylvania, the planting" of the
West Indies, the settlement of the
American Colonies, and their defense
against their rivals, the French-all
these subjects were Cromwell's daily
cares.

WOMAN NEEDS

For the relief and cure of the many del
icate, intricate and obstinste ailments
peculiar to her lex, a remedy carefully
devised and adapted to her delicate
organization by al experienced and
skilled physician. Such a remedy is
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription.
The treatment of many thousands OF
those chronic weaknesses and distress
ing ailments peculiar to females, at the
Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute,
Buffalo, N. Y, has afforded a vast ex-
p~erience in nicely adapting and thor
oughly testing remedies for the cure of
woman's peculiar maladies.
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is
the outgrowth, or result, of this great
and valuable experience. Thousands
of testimonials received from patients
and from physicians who have tested it
in the more aggravated and obstinate
cases which had baffled their skill,
prove it to be q superior remedy for the
relief and cure of suffering women. 1t
is not recommended as a "cure-all, y
but as a most perfect specific for wom-
ans peculiar ailments.
AS a powerful in%vigorating tonic, it
imparts strength to the whole system
and to the womb and its appendages in
particular. For over-worked, worn

dressmakers, seamstresses, "shop-
girls" house-keepers, nursing moth
ers, and feeble women generally, "Fa-
vorite Prescription" is the greatest
earthly boon, being unequaled as an
appealing cordial and restorative tonic.
AS q soothing and strengthening

unequaled and is invaluable in allaying
