M. S. Larimore Of Kokomo, Ind,
working under the direction of the,
national prohibition committee,
spent last Saturday and Sunday in
Laclede. Sunday evening in the
Christian church he delivered one
of the strongest addresses on the
temperance question heard here in
years. His address fairly bristled
with telling points that went
straight to the mark. Those who |
failed to hear him certainly missed
very instructive talk on the line
of temperance work.
The general store of Huffman & |
Son at Forker was visited by rob-
bers on Friday night of last week.
Entrance was gained by. breaking
open the front door. The loss
amounted to about $35 in clothing,
shoes, knives and razors. The
cash register was carried outside
and broken open. 1t contained
only a few pennies. The job is
to have been done by two
tramps who were seen along the
railroad the evening before, but no
trace of them could be found the
next day.

the tendency to speak slightingl,
of the virtue of women. Nor i.
there anything in which young mer
are so thoroughly mistaken as tn,
low estimate they form of the integ
rity of women-not of their own
mothers and sisters, thank God,
but Of others, who, they forget,
are somebody else's mother and
sisters.
AS a rule, no person who surren-
ders to this debasing habit is safe
to be trusted with an enterprise re.
quiring integrity of character.
Plain words should be spoken on
this point, for the evil is a general
one and deep rooted. If young
men are sometimes thrown into the
society of the thoughtless, they
have no more right to measure 9TH
er women by what they see of these
than they would have to estimate
the character of honest and respect
able citizens by the developments
of crime in our police courts.
Let young men remember that
their chief happiness in life de-
pends upon their utter faith in
women. No worldly wisdom, no
philosophy, no gener-
can cover or weaken this
truth. It stands like
he record Of God himself-for it
IS nothing less than this-and
should put seal upon lips that are
wont to speak slightingly of women.
A girl that is not neatly dressed
IS called a sloven, and no one likes

pretty, and her eyes bright, but if
here IS spot of dirt on her cheek,

nix, and her shoes are not laced or
outtoned up, and her apron is dir
y, and her collar not buttoned,
md her skirt is torn, she cannot be

A kind word costs but little, but
nay bless all day the one to whom
t is spoken. Nay, have not kind
words been spoken to you which
lave lived in your heart through

lope? Let us speak kindly to one
mother. We have burdens and
Worries, but let us not therefore

NEW YORK, April S.-The ar
rangement of sashes and scarfs In
Orieu tai fashion is getting to be a
DC pular finish on thin dresses. There
are numerous ways of draping them,
but many of them are to extreme to
be generally accepted, although they
are graceful and picturesque. One
very pretty arrangement for a scarf
of supple satin or silk mouseline Is
wound around the waist In girdle
fashion, fastened in the back and
then brought to the front, where II
is apparently tied with carelessness
yet producing an artistic effect. The
ends fsll to the bottom of the skirt
and are weighted with fringe or EN-
broidery. Wide ribbons are uset
very effectively and are less extreme
in development. They are drawn
round the waist, the ends knottet
once in frcnt, rather low. and fin
ished with weighted sash ends.
