The suhragists have a right OF
rejoice over the victory which they
have Just won in Sweden. BY a
vote OF I2o to % in n chamber
aud 1874 TO 90 in the other, the
Swedish Parliament has given wo-
men the right TO vote for all ottici-
ais on the same terms as e In
Australia, New Zealand, Finland
and the Isle OF Man women already
had full suffrage. But all OF those
are colonies. Sweden is the hrst
independent nation which has en-
franchised women, except Norway,
which did this in 1905.
In winding political privileges
women have been a little more
successful in some others parts OF
the world than they have been in
the United States. Colorado,
Utah, Idaho, and Wyoming have
given them the ballot without any
restrictions. In mahy states they
have school and municipal suffrage.
But outside OF the four states here
named the sex barrier is kept up
in the United States in elections
for all the higher posts. A like
interdict operates in Great Britain
where they can vote for nearly
every Office except for members oi
Parliament. In the big nations

How Elephants Cross q River That
Has Steep Banks.

1t IS a great sight to see line Of
! elephants crossing a river with steep
| banks. They go down slowly, striking
| each step and never making slip or
| q miss. although you feel every min
ute as If they were going to take a
| header into the water. Then they
wade or swim, as the caaG may be.
| and they swim beautifully, not hesitat-
ing to cross half mile Of deep water
II need be.
/ must say, however, that the sensa-
ton Of sitting on the back Of swim
..ii..iiii5 elephant Is the reverse OF pleas
mt. You fancy yourself on an enor-
nous barrel which may roll round at
any moment ma take you under. Be
sides that, elephants swim so low IN
the water that you are sure Of wet
ting, which IN India means an excel
lent chance Of fever.
Having crossed the stream, they
must climb TO the top Of the bank. and
this Is tie most peculiar operation Of
all. Down on their knees they 90 and
with trunk aud tlsks dig out foot
hold for themselves ana SO step by
step work their way TO the top, their
position being sometimes like that Of a
fly climbing up Il wall. As they reach
the top they give n lurCh sideways and
shoot one leg straight over tho bank,
then give lurch to the other side aud
shoot out the other leg IN the same
way, which brings them into the posi-
tion OF boy hanging by bis arms
from the edge Of roof Then they
como 10 their knees and finally. with
n great scramblng and kicking Of
their hind legs, bring themselves to
level ground again.
In spite Of these pcrilous nsccnts and
dc8ccnts | never knew nm elephant to
miss his foOthold. although there was
II case where one Of the herd got
stuck In the mud md sank gradually
deeper ana deeper unti only his head

OUNTY, lows. TUESDAY. AUGUST 3, 1909.

R. M. Corpstein, of Dubuque, has
been engaged as bookkeeper in the
Cresco Union Savings Bank and
assumed his duties yesterday. He has
been engaged with the firm of Rider &
Wallis at Dubuque for the past seven
years and comes highly recommended.
His family will follow in short time.
H. B. Foote and family of st. Paul
came down from Riceville, where
they had been visiting at the home of
his parents, last Saturday evening.
Mr.. Foote returned home Monday, but
Mrs. Foote and the children remained
for longer visit with her mother, Mrs.
%. S. Millington, and with other rela-
tives in and about Cresco.
Frank E. Long came down from
Minneapolis, Friday evening, for few
days visit before leaving for Fen
nimore, Wis, to commence rehearsals
for the coming theatrical season. Mrs.
Long, whose health is quite impaired,
has improved considerably but will not
join the company for some time.
Frank expects to play an engagement
in Cresco some time during the season.
Mamie Howard, of Red Wing, Mimi,
a cousin of Mrs. John Welch, is visit
ing at the Welch home. +. !. The follow
ing have been here during the week

Her son John from Cresco; her sisters,
Mrs. Jacob Kuhn, of Dubuque, and
Mrs. John Kuhn, of Spillville; and her
daughters, Miss Margaret, of Axtell,
Kan, and Mrs. Barbara Wombacher,

Here's Another Way to Advertise

The Union Savings Bank of Cresco
has started a unique advertising cam
paign in which the bank will give away
$1,000. The plan is as follows:
To every child under Is years of age
not having savings account at that
bank, who will deposit So. 90, they will
give $1.0O, making the deposit SO. 90,
on condition that it be left in the bank
for one year,-to draw interest at the
rate of per cent.
The object of the bank in making
this offer to the children is to encour-
age them to save their money and get
them interested in bank account.
This, in our opinion, is one of the
best advertising schemes that has come
to our notice, and will, no doubt, put
many dollars in the Cresco bank as
well as helping many children to start
bank account who would not other
wise have one. -Riceville Recorder.
