But the mOurnful fact

parentage. But the mournful fact
remains.
Though Smith would not resent in
the least being spoken of as the man
Smith, he would probably knock you
down if you referred to his spouse as
the woman Smith or the Smith
woman. Moreover, if society insisted
that Smiths spouse was the woman
Smith, the husband would have ample
grounds for separation. If Mrs. Smith
wishes to speak disparaging of Mrs.
Jones, she brands her that woman
Jones. This is equivalent to a verdict
of hanging. When Browns wife does
anything nice, gives tea or a recep-
tiOn, the newspapers mention her
Mrs. Brown: but if she puts poison in
Browns coffee, the headlines and
paragraphs vie with each other in
calling her the Brown woman. Even

draggled about the skirts, The

COUNTERFEITER CAUGHT
Sheriff of Waupaca County
Captures Passer of Bad Money.

Attracted by the easy way in which
a stranger took his being charged
with attempting to pass counterfeit
dollar in a saloon at Waupaca, the
proprietor notified the sheriff of
Waupaca county, and the man was
captured. and it is alleged that he had
counterfeit money on his person at
the time of his arrest. 1t was the
latter part of last week that the
capture was made and the prisoner
answers the description of the man
who was suggested as the shower Of
the bad money in this city few weeks
ago.
The man went into a saloon in
Waupaca, asked for drink, and then
attempted to pass bogus dollar in
payment. When it was refused, he
smiled and paid in good money. This
attracted the attention of Frank
Stout, the proprietor of the place, and
he followed the man and watched
him. Mr.. Stout learned that the man
had made a dozen attempts to pass
the bad money in the city, some of
them successfully, and sheriff Hess
was notified and the man arrested
He gave his name as Louis Stevenson,
and the money he tried to pass was
in silver dollars, quite new, light,
glossy, and bearing the date 1899 and
1898. These were the same as those
appearing here some weeks ago. 1t is
thought that he had an accOmplice
with him, and every suspicious
character has had to give an explana-
tiOn of himself in that county. The
fellow is about six feet tall, and has a
red mustache. He took his arrest
quietly, evidently having been there
before. He will be thoroughly looked
up and if it was proven he was trying
to pass the bogus coins Intentionally,
it will go hard with him.

REFERRING TO WOMAN

Without question the word woman

cally no place in refined parlance. To
call lady woman is little short of
insult. We confess that we are unable
to explain this bad end of the Off
spring OF plain but honest Anglo-Saxon
