One of Many.

An Atchison woman started out to buy her fall hat. First she visited the openings and looked and looked. Then she took friend and went around to the millinery stores and tried on" again. saying. of course, that her hair looked perfectly ter rible." Then she went home and thought and thought, and, finally, went back to the stores and tried on once more; and thought. and thought, and then bought hat which is so grotesque and hideous that her relatives and friends blush with shame every time they see her wear it, and strangers stare at her wonder ing what kind of courage it takes to wear such a looking hat.

 He had turned to leave the office when Horne pulled revolver from his desk and, holding it in both hands, began to send bullets in the direction of the company's executive. As soon as the shot penetrated his lung, Mir Woodward reeled into the managing editors office and fell to the floor. Horne, who had followed him closely, fired a third shot at the prostrate man. and this IS the one that prob ably caused the wound in the right arm.

Nut erowlnq Industry of the South.

Nut Growing Industry of the South. a..y"Nut growing is a comparatively new industry in the south Atlantic and Gulf states, but it promises to de- yelop into one of the most important in that section" said J. z. Reid. a prosperous planter of Florida. The most popular nut is the pecan, and its popuIarity is probably due to the de- velopment of systematic methods of grading it and cracking it with ma chinery operated by steam or electric power. 5This makes possible the mar keting of Sae meats of the nut ready for use.
 The demand is always much great CT than the supply and mar planters are now turning their attention to the nut raising industry. It is not un- common for a tree to bear as high as 200 pounds of nuts in one season and most of these sell at from 60 10 70 cents a pound. It does not require much figuring to show that the pecan orchards which abound in some sec tions are paying Investments

The Best Education.

Madison Democrat: Secretary Will
son spoke eloqueDtly the other day
when he declared that he would not
limit the education of rural families
to material affairs-to the mere get
ting of bread and butter, as some
thoughtless men in prominent places
term agricultural education. Mans
responsibility to God and to his fell
impressed upon young and old, in
country and village and town, by the
grandest organization of churches
and Sabbath schools known to any
people, where mans nobler nature is
being stimulated and developed with
infinite pains and at such expense as
we are never likely to see devoted to
material things. Highly enlightened
society, as we have it, requires lib
eral incomes. Good farming is the
basis of bank accounts in our country.
Fill the pupils stomach before you
teach altruism, and see that the teach
er has had beefsteak for breakfast" "
One of the most praiseworthy lines OF
work being done at our agricultural
colleges is the training OF young
women in what pertains to themselves
and others, including domestic econ
omy sanitation, nutrition, ventila-
tion and correct living, resulting in
what we haye-the American girl,
unique, unequalled, perfect.

The large majority cast II favor OF
the proposition shows that the peo-
pie of Mineral Point in general recog-
nized the need of a public building.
The amount voted for the purpose of
securing one, is a liberal amount for
a city the size of Mineral Point. 1t is
believed that the common council can
keep within the limit and still obtain
for the city a building which will be
ample for all public purposes.
