the dig Of the vaudevillian, who, when

mud is so deep. Ottumwa's streets

always are in the spring. If the same
plan is followed this spring as here

ton until kind providence permits
the sun to shine long enough to dry

Dangers In DANCING.

Dancing has been extolled as a mos,
healthful recreation; as a means OF
physical culture it favors the develop
ment of the muscular system and pro
notes health and cheerfulness. And
dancing is carried on by women whose
fashion of dress is of such a nature as
to injuriously affect one or the othe.
organ of the body.
Young girls appear to experience NJ
fatigue after it. They will not miss 2
single waltz, polka or square dance,
but If the pulse of one of these In.
defatigable devotees is felt after the
dance is finished II will be found IN
the majority of cases that the numbe,
OF pulsations is far in excess of the
normal. and from this It may be IN
ferred that the condition of the heart
must react prejudicially upon the en-
tire organism, and it justifies an an
prehension of danger where girls are
delicate.

Lure Of the clnh.

It is not at all true, as some people
aver, that the lure of the club is the
spirituous refreshment to be found
there or its aloofness from the re-
straining eye of critical womankind
But It is true that it represents the
highest development along lines OF
physical comfort as this is known and
sought for by the animal man, and n
the ladies. on the few days Of the
year when they are admitted within
the doors of these sanctuaries OF
masculine luxury, would study what
they see there they would speedily be
made aware, by the objects visible be-
fore them, of the sort of indoor en-.
vironment that most appeals to the
soul OF the average man.-John Ken.

County Convention Saturday

The Republican county convention at
Hyde Park on Saturday next will draw
the usual good attendance. Early in the
season it was thought that there would
be a contest over several of the offices,
but the caucus results indicate that there
will be little balloting for any of them.
For Senator, we understand there will
be no opposition to A. A. Pike of Stowe.
E. H. Sherwin of Johnson was an aspir-
ant, but the caucuses having put Mr..
Pike in the lead Mr.. Sherwi1f will not al
low his name to be presented.
For States Attorney, M. P. Maurice
will be re-nominated, there being no OPP
position to his candidacy.
Of course E. c. White will be again
nominated for Judge of Probate. This is
a case where "the office seeks the man.
and so long as Judge White will accept it
the office will go to him without contest.
The Sheriff question seems to have mar
rowed down to Geo. Town OF Morris
ville,an he will probably have no oppo-
sition Still, there may be showing on
the part of Stevens and Wilson.
There will be no opposition to the re-
nomination of Judge Mower of Eden-he
having served but one term as Assistant
Judge.
Judge Walker of Cambridge will accept
another nomination shouldit be rendered
him. There are those. however, who
think that the rule of two terms should
be adhered to and therefore the probable
tiles are that others may be mentioned
for the place. AS Morristown will very
likely secure the States Attorney and
Sheriff nominations she will have no can
didate for this office. Elmore has recent
" had Judge. Wolcott may present a
candidate and shere may be candidates
from HYDE Park, Johnson and Waterville.
The High Bailiff question is still un-
settled.

Timber Books.

There is at Cassel library prob
ably unique in the world. 1t is
bound in timber, printed on timber
pages-possibly from wood blocks
and deals exclusively with tim
Der. The library in question is the
Holzbiblistek, which was compiled
at the end of the last century by
Karl Schieldbach and is composed
of about 500 volumes made from
trees in the park at Wilhelmshohe.
Every volume bears on a tab-not
in timber, but, queerly enough, In
morocco-the name of the tree
from which it was obtained. There
are plates of the tree in all stages
of its growth, and the letterpress is
a treatise on the foresting and nat
ural history of the tree.
