Another Failure.

Another Failure.
Again another American lady
has sold herself for an empty
title. Miss Anita Stewart, of
New York, has became the wife
Prince Migule, Of Braganzr.
Her mother is said to have
settled upon her daughter, as a
wedding dover, one million dol
lars, before the marriage.
Will the American girl never
learn common sense? But few
of these. so called, royal mar
riages ever bring happiness to
the contracting parties. Money
on one side, and a Royal name
on the other, is about all that
either can expect. If our girls
would only remember that there
is no higher title or name than
that of american Citizen
worth more than all the empty
titles of foreign nabobs and
bankrupt lords can bestow.
In most of these foreign mar
riages the groom is some poor,
broke down son Of a declining
royal family, with neither COM
mon sense or decency, and only
seeking an American wife as a
means of hettering his financial
condition, and III marriages he
hopes to replenish his depleted
treasury, and when that is ac-
compIished, he generally be-
comes again the dissipated son of
royalty, and neslects his Amer
lean wife, and the neglected
Girl returns to her American
home a wiser and better woman
than when she left her home to
become a foreign princess.
Let them remember that there.
is no higher title than Ameri-
can Citizen, no greater honor
than that of being the wife of
a patriotic American.

Good Vegetables
Mr.. c. F. Bachelor, of Sun

this week and brought in oats
measuring sixty-one inches and
wheat fifty-six inches in length.
He also presented the editor

A very unbelievable fact
came to light in Kansas City

all the schools of the aforesaid
city, had never seen a real live
speciman of the porcine family.
