KILLED FROM AMBUSH.
A Former Bates County bad
Man" Killed in Oregon.
Adrian Journal.

Adrian Journal.
Fred Miller, who formerly lived in
this county and ran q sawmill on
Grand River and Elk Fork, was shot
from ambush near Brihnon, Oregon,
March 9Th, and no clue to the guilty
party has been found.
Miller passed a. q bad man and
openly boosted that he had killed
two men in Missouri, and he had kill
ed one man in Oregon, but he aud his
son were the only witnesses to the
killing, and be was acquitted, but
the friends Of the dead man swore
that they would evenge the murder
Of their friend. II is probable that
this may have been done when Miller
was killed.
The papers say that the people are
not lamenting the death Of Miller,
and there will be little effort made to
apprehsnd the guilty party or par
ties.
Many Of the old settlers here re-
member Miller quite well.

for which each trains its students.
The classical college graduate has o
work to do just as the trained
mechanic. The object of education in
both is the same-to increase his
usefulness as a factor in society.
This then, is the standard to be set
for himself by the college graduate:
How can l make myself most useful

that question. he will choose a life
work, to which he will devote all his
energies and all the fruits of his
college life and training and prove
his value to the world.

When Money viii Be Less the Goal,
and broodest Usefulness the
Highest Aim.


In q brilliant discourse upon the
subject of STANDARD of Life" State
Superintendent of Education j. B..
Aswell yesterday pointed out to the
students of Tulane University the
course they must pursue and the
standards they must adopt as their
gauge of the value of life and life's
opportunities, if they are to get out
Of their college training all its
higher opportunities. While the
lecture formed one in the weekly
popular series to which the public is
invited, Prof. Aswell directed his
attention nor particularly to the
students.
After analysing the various stan
dards set for themselves by various
peoples at different periods in the
worlds history he showed how con-
aicting standards could exist among
q single people and in . single period.
Such q conflict of standards we find
in this country tO-day-ranging from
the basest to the noblest. He deplored
the fact that the standard most prom
inent in this country to-day, the one
Of all the others which alone might be
called the national standard, is .
standard of m~oney-getting. This
standard has pervsded the highest
calling and professions. 60 that e
day We meet men who, If you asked
them why they sent their boys to
college, II they would give expression
to the snswer that comes foremost in
their minds in its naked form, would
answer ITO make money"
But lower standards than this have
been set by other peoples at other
times. History is . record of adj
vancing standards. And this present
standard thst holds predominance in
this country is not the standard of
the future.
Prof. Aswell declared that the
future standard by which values are

mocracy In education. One Of the
great standards of our civilization
has been Christianity. Almost equal
with this have been democracy and
education. But this standard of the

HARD TIMES FOR BABIES.
Frequently Made Martyrs to OLD
Established Customs

Even in some civilized countries
Jabies still have hard times. In parts
of Flanders the mothers wind linen
cloths around the heads of their
children because it is considered beau
tiful there for girls to have fiat
temples. In parts of France there is
still worse custom.
The style in heads there is to have
the back of the skull as fiat as pos
s!ble, so board is strapped to the
back of the infants head.
In Brittany many houses have a
eole fastened in the floor. Attached
i this is movable arm that is free
to turn completely around the upright.
The babies are strapped to this arm,
and are expected to amuse themselves
by lurching around and around in a
ring. The Breton peasants imagine
that it teaches them to walk, and they
don't seem to care that it makes their
legs handy.

ana a Clear Complexion.
Every sensible woman naturally wishes
toappear attractive. She knows the value
of bright eyes, delicate complexion and
lively spirits. She knows also that
good health is at the basis of her charms,
md that good blood is the source of good
health.
Miss Mamie Conway has a complexion
i,hich is the admiration of all who know
her. Asked if she could make any sug-
gestions that would be helpful to others
less fortunate, she said:
my complexion would not have
pleased you, if you had seen it two years
ngo. 1t was then about as bad as it
could be, and it gave me n great deal of
dissatisfaction. If you want good
complexion you must take care Of your
health, especially of the condition of
your blood. My health was mt that time

suffered also from indigestion. 1t was
clear that my blood was in bad condition,
for pimples broke out all over my face"
cit is hard to realize that, for there
isn't the slightest trace of such blem-
ishes now"
"It was unfortunately quite other
wise then, and long time passed before
found anything that gave me any re-
lief. 1 became very weak and listless.
The doctors medicine did me no good,
aud l took n number Of highly recon-
mended tonics with no better result.
As soon, however, as began to use Dr..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People my
complexion cleared up, and after 1 had
taken two boxes there was not sign of

Goodness of Spring Water.

1T is fact" remarked the head
of certain fascinating soda water
department, that spring water keeps
colder very much longer than ordi-

through Philadelphia water pipes.
You can make the test, even in sum-
mer, by going to Fairmount park,
drawing jug of spring water, bring.
ing it home and putting it in your
cellar. Not only will it not get warm
during the trip to your house, but
1t will remain much colder than will
