Posing OF any kind is incompatible with the

IN full possession Of the reality, there could be
no incentive to pose. 1t doesn't occur to the

the thought Of covering up weakness. Is

Without Delay.

The PLAIN DEALER Voting Contest is
fast nearing its completion. But two
weeks remain before some girl will be
in possession of the fine piano on
exhibit in the Kellogg Music Store, and
in only two days more some girl will be
wearing the elegant diamond ring now
in P. A. Clemmer's jewelry
window. Who will win them?
We publish the vote up to date which
still leaves all contestants in the same
positions as held last week, although
all have made gains. With our last
issue of this week we will publish the
vote of the contestants for the last time,
and we confidently expect the vote of
every contestant to show a big increase
as the votes secured on the Diamond
Ring contest will have been turned in
by that time.
Remember that after next Saturday
afternoon at p. M, all voting must
be done at the bank, either with ballots
secured by payments at this Office or to
the contestants, or by blind voting
forms which may be obtained at the
bank, this office, or of the contestants.

MALEK.

Here we turn reverently to Heaven
and see there the happy soul of our
brother who did seek his rest
in Heaven some two weeks since, and
now we are brought face to face with
brother of this worthy ancestor.
Jacob Malek was born on farm in
County Tebor near Selch. Bohemia, on
the 10th day of August, 1858. In the
same year, his parents with their
family sought the shores of the new
world and settled in Winneshiek County,
Iowa. The early years of his life were
spent in careful preparation for his
future work, and he became interested
in exerting his powers by tilling the
SOIL October 6, 1886, when but a
prideful young man, he was united in
marriage to Antionette Knechlova, and
the same year went to Chickasa
County, Iowa, to continue the work of
providing for himself and family and
Strengthening those chains that bind
all men to their Creator. In the year
1892, he came to Howard County and
lived on his farm near Schley, Iowa,
until the 14th of May, 1909, when GOO
called him to depart from us and pass
to that eternal home to which he longed
to go.
