TWINS COURT TWIN.
MISSOURI BACHELORS, e2. WOULD
 WED SISTERS OF 22.
Twin Conquest Result of Twin Con- test for Popularity Prize for Twins-WhoIe County Is
 Interested.

Plattsburg, Mo.-David and Dallas Pogue of Plattsburg, s,xty-two-year- old twins, are laying siege for the hearts and hands of Lula and Lela Brown of Mecca, twenty-two-year-old twins, and all Clinton county is in- terested in the double-barreled TO- nance.
 David and Dallas are bachelors be- cause they agreed, long time ago, that they would never marry unless they could find twins to marry. They have lived all these years without coming across feminine twins of mar riageable age, and now that they have fffound a pair of twenty-two-year-old twins they are in the midst of whirlwind courtship and have an nounced that they are going to fight it out on the twin line if it takes all summer and half of the winter.
 Last winter a Plattsburg newspa- per started a popularity contest and the Brown twins were entered. That was how the Pogue twins heard of the Brown twins.
 The Pogue twins got busy. They made up their minds that the Brown twins should be elected the most pop ular girls in Clinton county. They boosted hard for the Browns.
 Two diamond rings were offered as prizes in preliminary skirmish. The Pogues saw to it that the Browns won the diamond rings Then they went in strong on the big contest for the niano After they had obtained all the subscribers that they could they bought subscriptions outright and gave the paper away. and cast the votes for the twins.
 When the contest ended there was no most popular young woman in Clinton county" There were two and they were the Brown twins. And the Pogue twins had won.
 There was a banquet to celebrate the victory. The Brown twins were the guests of honor and the Pogue twins were the hosts. Then the four twins had their pictures taken to- gether and if anybody had doubted before that a twin conquest was go ing to grow out of the twin contest. that settled it.
 Now everybody is waiting for the announcement of the engagement of the twins to the twins. Nobody knows which Pogue twin is most likely to get which Brown twin. but that is not important. The Poguo twins look so much alike and the Brown twins look so much alike that either way will do-

Heroism.

In the obscurity of retirement, amid the squalid poverty and revolting pri- vations of hovel, scenes of magma as much beyond the belief as the prac- tise of the great; heroism borrow ing no support, either from the gaze of the many or the admiration of the few, yet f1ourishing amidst ruins, and on the confines of the grave; a spec tacle as stupendous in the moral world as the falls of the Missouri in the natural; and, like that mighty cat aract, doomed to display its grandeur only where there are no eyes to ap- preciate its magnificence.

Chic Hat for a Child.

Among the new display of fall hats for the little ones was a fine French felt, white, and in the new droopy mushroom shape. The trimming was a soft ribbon passed around the crown and held down with trim little rosettes of the ribbon. one over each ear. The left rosette was encircled by a dainty wreath of holly of the variegated kind, the soft creamy white and pale green leaves, with tiny crimson berries. The ties were of soft white ribbon. and altogether it was a most attractive bit of millinery

A Workbasket Hint.

Keep in your workbasket several large-size safety pins. and use them to string loose buttons, hooks, eyes, etc. Keep those of the same size on the same pin, black hooks on black pins, white eyes on white pins, etc. Thus you never will have an untidy workbasket, or be delayed by not be- ing able to find instantly what you are looking for.
 Fasten the safety pins to one side of the lining of your basket-and your method of securing neatness will be complete.

BR|GANDs OF CHINA
OUTLAWS ARE POPULAR WITH

Robin Hoods of the Middle Kingdom Regarded With Reverence and Respect by Poorer Citizens

Outlaws, or declared brigands, arc In China a formidable fraternity The are called in the inland provinces where the pure court language is the orthodox standard, by the name oi kouankouen, or desperado. But on the borders of the empire. in Man churia, and on the edge of Mongolian Tartary. the Turkish words "orolis and "haiduck" come into use--borrow- ed from the nomadic tribes of the Transoxianian steppe.
 All these words, Chinese and Turk Esh. denote a daring and avowed bri- gand, an open foe to law, a thing most hateful of all others to bu- reaucratic pedants like the formal mandarins.
 The kouan-kouen are not, however the most unpopular persons in the Central Land. They are admired by women, praised by men, sung or In the rude ballads of the peasantry, and when they mingle in the crowd at a village festival they are. regarded pretty much as the mountain bandit ss viewed by the rustics of Corsica and Sardinia
 There have been Chinese Robin Hoods who have worn pigtail and satin boots, and quaffed corn brandy an the intervals of their professional duties. no doubt, and the hardy ma rauders are not seldom liberal or their in-gotten wealth. and scatter among the lowly what they wrest from the moneyed world.
 These free-handed depredators, the Kouan- n-kouen. do not rely entirely to the popularity which their exploits and occasional gifts create for them among the indigent classes. They have confederates in the cities. Their wpfes haunt the markets and hang about the inns. They have allies in Rhe enemy's camp and pay handsome. zy for intelligence.

 Many of them can show the scars rf torture wrongly inflicted by some capricious tyrant. Others have seen a son die in the "cangue," or stocks or under the lash. for light or imag- 1nary fault Some have been mem bers of a secret society and detention has turned them into beasts of prey.
 Not every one can be member of these predatory clubs. They test their neophytes by severe initiatory penance, by hunger and pain and fa- sigue. A tremendous oath of oDedi- ence and fidelity Is enforced by the certainty of dire vengeance on the false brother, and the Chinese avow that the faith observed by these rob bers towards each other Is remark ably evinced, even under torture the most elaborate.

In starching linens and simila. goods too light for mourning starch and too dark for the white. put in the boiling starch a large piece of tissue paper in shade to match as nearly as possible the dress material.

1--WE believe in forest preservation

the states should participate In the

constitution rights give US these

"There seems to be some misunder.
standing as to the position taken by

between the people on the one hand
and the reigning power OF the imam

shall control our local affairs and re-

utterance they told us how they pur-
posed paying no small share, Of the

ings of the natural resources of the
western country.
"The action of the supporters Of
Pinchot gave us the greatest warrant
to believe that we were right in the
position taken by the delegations from
