What She Did.

A maiden left her downy couch
one morning not long ago. And
she pu. little powder OH her face.
She made her toilet slowly, fixing
everything just so. Then she put
a little powder on her face. She
ambled down to breakfast and she
dropped into her seat. She passed
her plate to papa and she got a
piece of meat. She finished up on
coffee, cake and predigested wheat.
Then she put little powder on her
face. She took a car to go down
to shop little bit. Then she put
a little powder on her face. At
noon she ate little luncheon, pay
ing IS cents for it. And she put
little powder on her face. That
.ternoon she spent a dime for ice
cream at store, and when she
finishing eating it she longed for
lust one more. But thinking of
the dime 'twould cost, she started
for the door. Then she put little
powder on her face. She took
car at half past 8, back to her home
to go. And she put little pow
der on her face. She ate her din
ner with her folks; then she went
to call up Joe. Joe came that
highland stayed till most 1 o'clock,
It's said. When he had gone she
went up stairs declaring she was
dead" She tumbled into her
downy couch. and as she lay in
bed, why-she put a little powder
on her face.-Dallas Times. He-aid.

An Indictment Against
the American Girl.

Harper's Weekly considers that
the American girl has been unjust
ly maligned by the North American
Review, which recently expressed
the opinion that the creature, when
she is between the ages of Is and
p, is an intolerable bore, self
conscious, ignorant and concerned
chiefly with matrimonial asplra-
tion," that she has little that is
interesting except her physical ap-
pearance, and that she does not
compare in attractiveness with the
American boy. The Weekly writ
er thinks that this indictment
should be framed more specially,
and it observes that, after all, her
imperfections are not fatal. Since
the charges extend only to the age
of %, the inference is that she out
grows or lives down her early
faults, and Objectionable girls turn
out pretty well and develop merit.
That is consoling, but not consol-
ing enough. It is not enough that
our defective and Objectionable
girls turn out pretty well as women.
We want them also to be nice as
girls. No country can afford to
have any worse girls than it must.
Girls ought to be sweet, well man
nered, intelligent and well trained.
If our girls are not what they ought
to be, we want to know ito
know it at once-so as to correct
whatever is amiss in the training
we try to give them

CITY MUST PAY DEBTS.
Judge Mcpherson Of Federal Court
Makes Important Ruling.


Makes important Ruling.
Des Misunderstanding that city
is bound to repay borrowed money
the same as an individual, Judge
Smith Mcpherson in federal court
held that the city OF Marshalltown
must credit the Glucose Sugar Rein
Ing company OF that city with Its
taxes as repayment Of $4,000 Dor.
Towed to construct sewer. The
court overruled demurrers Of the city
in this case. which has attracted
great attention, for it involves the
rights OF city TO repudiate debt
after contracting one.
When people living below Marshall
own On the Iowa river threatened
damage suits II the sewage from the
glucose works was continued to emrty
into the river. the city and company
got together to dig sewer. The
company contributed $4,000 to the
sewer on condition that its taxes be
RENTED until repaid. Two years
later the county treasurer collected
the taxes and the company for three
years paid In $14016.90 as taxes. 1t

to it on its loan, and this the city re-
fused to DO. The latter sought to re.
pudiate the entire contract, claiming
that since a portion OF the taxes 60
to the schools and part to the county
the city could not legally make the
necessary remission. The court holds,
however, that the contract must stand
and that while the city had no power
to exempt the company from taxation
It has the power to credit the taxes
on the debt it owes the company. The
court also maintains that the sewer
should be q necessity and intimates
that the city. should not seek to evade
