which it may interest you to study. OF
course, you will be thrilled by the foot
ball match between the rival colleges,
one of the most exciting and realistic
ever put upon the stage: you will fol-

love affair between Billy Bolton, the
halfback. and Jane Weatherspoon,"

many hearty laugh over the praLks
of the students. But. watch, especial

deception and fraud are invoked by one

A terrible accident occurred Tues
day at the home OF j. s. Morrow, q
prominent and we'll known farmer
living six miles southeast OF town, at
which time his little son, five or six
years OF age, was burned to death.
The little fellow went out to the field
where his brother was plowing, and
as the day wac somewhat chilly, he
complsined OF being cold. His broth.
er stopped work and built a fire In
order that the child might get warm,
and in some manner, a short time
afterwards, the clothes OF the little
fellow caught fire, and he was fright
fully and terribly burned. DR.. W. E.
Dawson was called, but he found the
unfortunate child In a dying condk
tion. He only survived a few hours
when death came and released the
psin-stricken spirit. In the hour of
their misfortune and sore bereave.
ment, the grief stricken parents have
the deep and sincere sy mpathy OF the
entire community.

STATEMENT OF A RASH MAN
Says That Women Do Not Know
How to Dress Themselves.

London, April SD. c. Cathrop
makes the startling affirmation that
women know nothing about beauty
and nothing about dress. He as.
serts that men know far more about
dress than women do, and says 1t is
because they consider women In per.
spective.
"Woman," he econtinues, considers
herself In a series OF bits, never as q
whole or individual. The result is
there are no female individuals in
dress, only number Of sticks dress
ed up according to fashion, each as
much like the other as possible.
1.-THE streets used to be filed with
Dumarier girls. Now It is Gibson
girls. Whatever their figures they
must be squeezed, elongated, pulled
and pinched until each one resembles
every other. This is probably due to
the fact that women are not sure oi
their own beauty. They are afraid
Of il, Of themselves and OF each 9th.
or. This Is absurd, for there are no
ugly women, A few, a very few, may
be plain. The rest are beautiful. 1t
lies within the power Of q plain wo.
man to become beautiful, and OF q
beautiful woman to become more
beautiful by emphasizing her individ.
uality and her special features"
Mr.. Cathrop holds that the early
Victorian women knew more about
dress than modern women, and con.
sequently each appeared as com
|plete picture.

A Dogs Funeral.

Thereby hangs an interesting tale
which was told by the New York
World In this way: "'Peno' was a
prize St. Bernard and was raised by
Swanson. She roamed the docks
by day and at night she guarded the
place from the intruders. About
twelve years ago Watt was born.
No mother ever brought up a child
with more concern than Peno showed
for her offspring. She had been we'll

was right. The dogs, mother and

City. In the summer when the boys
went in swimming of the docks the
animals kept q watchiul eye on their

and hall q dozen men owe their lives
to the dogs. Several times they

After Watt died, about year ago,
and was buried back OF the Office,
Peno slowly pined away; even her
