tor or an actress can fully dppre-
ciate what they mean. The picture
as presented to the audience is
very pretty, but the vision which
looms up before the eyes OF the
or player is something like this:
A face covered with a coating of
cold cream which has been pow
dered over with a thick layer of
pearl white or brunei powder, as
the case may be. On the cheeks
are daubs of rough, which at that
close range in no possible manner
suggest as they do to the audience,
the rosy cheeks of country lassie.
over the eyes are rubbed a little
Gark blue powder to make Thorn
pCetical. The under lids are heavily
renciled, and a mark extends a
quarter of an inch from the eye at
the end. This makes them larger.
Upon each separate lash Is a bed
OF black cosmetic, which has the
cfect of making them heavy and
long. The cherry lips, which to
the audience the hero Is eager to
press to his own, are to his dis

FORECAST OF
HARD TIMES

ON one hand we have the rail
roads. enormously increasing their
fixed charges to meet the growing
wants OF trade. and on the other, a
popular demand for lower rates and
for heavier burdens of taxation on
under such circumstances i'm a pc
Rod of hard times? Inevitably the
railroads would resort to rate-cut-
ting to retain their old and TO get
new business in order to meet their
heavy fixed charges. 1t must b.
remembered that rise in the cost
of labor and materials has added
greatly TO the expenditures of all
our industries. Steel rails have
doubled I'm price and timber, loco
motives. coal and freight cars have
advanced from 30 to 200 per cent
in cost No doubt depression would
reduce the cost prices OF material.
but labor would give way more
reluctantly. and in the present tenn
per of the people they might antici-
pate a period of strikes, which
would greatly intensity socialistc
unrest with all that involves oil
destructive demagogic legislation.
Under such conditions the most nat
ural demand of the labor agitators
would be for still more crushing

remain but a resort to government

James j. Hill, president of the
Great Northern, says this country

May 8, 1901, when Atchison sold

EDITOR ATE THE

We see in many of our exchanges
that the ground hog sure saw his
shadow Saturday. This is an error
an impossibility. The grounding is
dead. He is a thing Of the past.
We know this, because we helped
to masticate him! He was killed last
Friday morning-the day before he
was billed for his animal perfor-
nance on Indian creek. in
this county, by ELY" Wass. OF
this place. and Drummer Coon"
Westfall, of Parkersburg. He was
a big, fat fellow. weighing in the
neighborhood Of thirty pounds. and
was unearthed and despatched after
about half an hours hard work
The carcass was brought to town,
and that night it was served at
Hinton's restaurant to a party OF
fourteen hail fellows well met.
To nearly all the experience was
a novelty. Somewhat to our sur
prise we found the dish to be very
palatable, and hereafter we will look
with less hauteur and contempt up
on grounding eater. Since eating
thereof, We would not be surprised

One of Ell Paso's baseball clubs,
which had played several games
already this season, and ought to
have been in pretty fair trim,
came down from their head
quarters last Sunday and thought
they were going to make Dem

nate for the Pass City aggrega-
sion that they caught our boys
barely organized and virtually
without any practice whatever.
Had this not been the case it is
doubtful if there would have
been a greasy spot left Of the
visitors, who were defeated by
the score of 8 to2.

on an error that a small school,
boy could have strangled tC

near the end of the game wher
the localities saw they had il
