NEWARK WOMEN LOOK RICH.

In my opinion Newark women
dress better
The New York women dress for
style, and that is all, but the New
ark women are stylish and dress be-
comfhgly. In New York the wages
are higher and things are cheaper.
but the women dress too flashy and
Guido themselves. The Newark
women dress plain but neat, and
their clothes are richer looking than
those of the New York women.

THE STAR GIVES GOOD IDEAS.

I should say that the Newark
dress much palmer and
neater than the New York women
who dress loud and fashy, whether
a style is becoming o not.
We Newark women dress up to
the style also, but only IL it is be-
coming to us. l always went to New
York for my clothes before THE

acres of land in the Virginia military
district of Ohio said to have been en-
tered on land warrants by Washington
before his death. which land was after
ward taken up by others because Wash

value of the lands was not more than

The matter was first brought before

by the Washington heirs. In 1890 Con-
gress enacted that all Virginia military
warrants not surrendered within a year
should be invalid. The heirs did nothing
