ANOTHER BAD CHECK man


Sunday Mr.. Wood of South Fork
bro lght his hay men to town to
pay them off. He gave each one
a check for the amount due him
and asked Mr.. Shirley to cash the
checks as the banks were closed and
some Of the men were without
money. Mr.. Shirley did so as far
as his cash on hand would permit.
Among the men was a man named
White who had a check for $64 So.
He got his money and in the even
ing went to Mr.. Shirley's saloon
and left $50, for him to keep until
the next morning. He shortly
returned and asked for $40. He
got it and soon returned for $50
more. This lasted him but a short

A pleasant time was: the portion
of all the women concerned the
other day in an animated discus
sion of the propriety of cigarette
smoking by their sex. The debate
took place in the town, of Pitts
burg, famous for its explosive way
of its gilded YOUTH Starting Incl
dentaliy in a typically feminine
way, an absent member of the sex
being pulled to aspieees: with
chivalrous frankness and discussion
rapidly extendec from personal to
general propositions. 1T stopped
without reaching aHconclusion when
q woman with a sense. of humor
made pointed reference to "our
great-gl and. n others, WHO smoked
corncob pipes" She forgot to
W ave The surf stick as well'in the
face of the 'censorious majority.
In all this volume. of. talk there
was apparently only :. one argument
pro-. but that a potent one
woman's no longer seriously OPP
posed right to do as she pleases
$50 long as she does not tread on
any one else's toes,'f the any one
else for whose benefit this reserva-
ton was made being, of course, of
the feminine gender. Men do not
really count any longer where
emancipated Nomen's right to do
as she pleases is concerned. The
arguments, contravaried from the
example which woman in promin-
ent places should set to the young
daughters of the land to strictly
individual prejudices, one matron
declaring that a woman who.
smoked was as sus pect to her as a
woman who bleached her hair.
But hasn't woman a right to do
as she p eases with her own hair
and with "store hair" too, for
that matter? That was abundantly
provided by the, coinffures in both
our opera houses last season.
Moreover, it depends upon how she
bleaches it. If it be done with
sufficient art she will not be looked
down upon with suspicion at all,
while if she botches the job or pro-
longs it unduly the look will not
be suspicious, but one of rapid
mental calculation, with the year
of her debut or the height of her
eldest as the known quantity. But
we are depressing.
1t is worth mentioning that in
all this mingling of arguments
moral, social and personal, the
most important question in regard
to woman's smoking was not re-
ferred to once, so far as the re-
ports show, namely, the health and
strength of future generations

1t is not my desire Tor intention

the statement, as we'll as I.
If Mr.. Hudson, means by his
denial, a complete retraction of

made, then, am glad to commend
