Mitchell.-The Chicago, Milwaukee
and st. Paul railroad has put its new
time card into effect, which has made
several important changes in the run
ming of their passenger trains up IN
this sec.lon of the state and which has
been received with very little apprecia-
ton on the part of the public. The
worst possible change was made In
the day passenger running east and
west. Going west it now leaves here
at 6:1O, three hours later. Arriving
from the west at s o'clock a. m. it Is
two and a half hours earlier, and both
trains break the connections made for
the eastern and northern part of the
state requiring a layover of fifteen
hours going east and eight hours going
west by passengers coming from the
north. The night train which has for
merly stopped here at midnight, is now
run on through to Rapid City, and is
made a daily train service while the
day train runs daily except Sunday.
The Sioux City and Aberdeen night
train is also made daily train under
the change. Many loud protests have
gone up from the towns west of here,
and efforts will be made to have the
day train placed back to nearer its
former schedule.

When SLEEPING,

1t is well to sleep from infancy with
the head uncovered, as the hair thus
retains Its beauty longer. On retiring
the hair should be raised high above
the ears, without pulling, plated loose
ly in q single braid and tied with .
silk or cotton ribbon. Avoid wearing
starched nightcaps, as the starch is in
furious to the hair. When old age ap-
proaches 1t may be well to wear night
caps. t's
Brush the hair will, using soft
brush, on going to be dand in the
morning. The best brushes are made
with short bristles. I fthe hair Is

much harm may be done to It. The
hairs would certainly be broken on,
become uneven and could never be
made to look cared for. 1t is an ex-
cellent thing to smooth the hair with
the hands.

bank and just ready to prove up on
his homestead, Lars s. Laingen, a
young claimholder near Empire, As
miles northeast of here, disappeared
and not the slightest trace of him has

the reduced rates is based on the fact
that the railroad travels through
