Missouri will not get a bank de
pOsitors guarantee law at this sea-
sion, hut it il evident that the idea
has grown n lot in popularity since
it was first adopted in Oklahoma
several years ago. A similar law
has already heen passed by the
legislatures of two or three north
ern states, where the Republicans
are in power, 90 the question has
lost to a great ex,4n, its feature as
a distinctive Democratic policy.
The Missouri legislature bad such
q bill before it at this session, and
while it cannot he passed now the
prospects are that in two years
more the question will have ripen
ed for adoption as a law. Even
our banker friends are beginning
to view the matter more kindly,
and some Of them are in favor of a
federal law of this nature to apply
to national banks. As the question
becomes more familiar it gains
friends quite readily, for not only
does it give absolute safety for the
deposition, but tends to popularize
banking,

Two Marks of Beauty.

Beautiful eyes and brows are. in
one sense, special gift of nature.
Many a plain woman is redeemed by
fine eyes; many a pretty face spoiled
by red-rimmed. dull. lusterless eyes.
But at the same time a great deal u1y
be done to make even unprom Eing
eyes clear and attractive, to render
eyes which are only passably pretty
really beautiful.
Attention 10 the general health will
go far TO make the eyes clear and
bright and prevent fatigue. even when
they are called upon to do a great
deal of work.
Have you never noticed the dull
eyes of person afflicted with dyspep-
sia. the yellow tinge of -overfeeding
and neglected liver: the lusterless
eyes OF the woman who sleeps in an
ill-ventilated room, who takes no ex.
ercise and spends all her spare time

to be the best player Of the game Of

political history of the United States
amazingly well; was learned in pugil-

story of all the prize-fghts OF recent
