Sixty five square miles in Colora-
do have been set aside by the gov
ern nment for the purpose of preserv
ing somasef the cliff dwellings.
The preserve is known as the Mesa
Verde National Park. One of the
cliff dwellings within it contains 146
rooms with a loopholed tower which
was doubtless erected for purposes
of defense. Ii was the home of per-
haps 500 persons. 1t was series of
flats, or suites of rooms each of
which is supposed to have been occu-
pied by family. There are many
other dwellings in the park some of
them in much better state of pre-
servation than the one mentioned.
The government will repair them as
much as is necessary for preserva-
tien.

experienced would have ruined the
crop. Late pieces are past recovery,

SHOPPING

Sometimes she goes from shop to
shop
Each morn and afternoon,
And never seems inclined to stop
Nor with fatigue to swoon.
From morn till noon, from noon
till night,
She's on her task intent;
She looks at everything in sight
But doesn't spend cent,
At last with weariness she signs
And says that shopping's hard,
And then with courage high she
buys
A picture postal card.

Treatment.

Ex-County Superintendent of
schools D. P. Repass was stricken
with that deadly and incurable affiic-

dangerous when first discovered it
kept up constant grinding on his
stalwart constitution from first to last
until Saturday last we were informed
of his death down in o Oklahoma where
he had gone to try the healing power
of another climate. Mr.. Repass was q
pioneer in Audubon County coming
to the county in 1877 and with the ex-

tinuously. He was an able instructor
and was elected County Superinten-

schools of the County were brought
to high degree of efficiency under
his able management. Leaving here
he was elected Superintendent of the
schools of Dexter Iowa where he has
built them up to the highest plane of
education. His burial took place at
Dexter Tuesday last midst q large
concourse of his friends and admirers.
All the business houses were closed
out of respect to his memory during
the funeral obseq uies aud interment.
The world is much the better for
his living in it, and the educational
monument builded and guided by
his master hand, stand erect and will
shine on till time shall be no more.
His life's work fitted him for the glor.
les which he has gone to enjoy, If "a
