USE YOUR DINNERS.
Auto Drivers Should Make Use of
Light DINNERS.

There seem to be a good many
automobile drivers who think that
DINNERS are placed on their mach
ines solely as luxury and are so
delicate that they must of necessity
be used exclusively for ornamental
ton and display purposes.
DINNERS should be used at every
opportunity. There is nothing so
disconcerting to an automobile driv-
er as the binding rays of an electric
headlight displayed from the front
of an onrushing car. The danger af-
forded is paramount. 1t is absolute
ly impossible to see the road, dis
lance cannot be properly gagged
and everything is dark, and driving
must be guesswork.
DINNERS should be used whenev-
err approaching another car at night.
1t may prevent an accident that is
serious and if it should not the blame
is obliterated.

DROWNING NEAR PLYMOUTH
ROCK.
Young Woman's Body Found i'm Riv-
en- Last Wednesday.

Last Wednesday Sheriff Ellingson,
County Attorney c. N. Houck and
Justice ii. f. Barthell were called
to Plymouth Rock, the body of a
young woman being found floating in
the river near there. A Cresco un-
dertaker had been called to take
charge of the body, and the follow
ing facts about the affair we take
from the Cresco Plain Dealer:
Mary Malek, aged 80, who for sew
eral months has made her home with
her brother Frank, near Plymouth
Rock, died rather mysteriously, by
drowning, Tuesday. 1t appears that
she arose early Tuesday morning be-
fore the others of the family and as
was frequently her custom, walked
to the river which is only a short
distance from the home, and evident
ly fell into the river and being unable
to swim, persisted by drowning.
Search was made for her but the
body was not found until Wednes-
day forenoon, when it was found in
shallow water about one-haIf mile
north of the Plymouth Rock bridge,
evidently having been carried by the
cuNent down stream from deeper
water.
The Winneshiek authorities were
summoned but could find no facts re,
lating to her death ether than those
given above.
The funeral took place Friday
morning at Protivin.

serving of a great deal Of credit for
the popularity Of the course, for the
kindness and attention she gave the
children who were entrusted to her
care each morning endeared herself
and her work to fond parents, and
many childish mind will long re-
tain pleasant memories of the stir

and dances taught by the dear good
"Chautauqua lady. "-Belding News.
Miss nellie Jewell, who had
charge of the children's hour work
at the Chautausua, left Tuesday for

The editors Cub" hasn't been up
here since July so we want to re-
port upon the crops. Last year we
threshed 10000 bushels of wheat in
the valley and this year we had only
$4,000, but the law of compensation
gives us about as much money for
it this year as last. Farmers are
hauling it to Iona and Taylor for
market.
Theodore Goodpasture and S. A.
Busenbark went over the range to
Blackfoot, Monday, to do some buy
and voting Mr. Busenbark is a rock
ribbed Republican, but it is suspected
that he has some consideration for
even a few Democrats if they make
good in office. Mr.. Busenbark is one
of the cattlemen who has sold con-
siderable beef this year and by the
rules of the game ought to be feel
ing good.
Mr.. GoodpaMure is one of our local
builders and there is prospect that
he will be called upon to help con-

dick place. Last winter the editor
of The Republican mentioned a GER
tain cabin with a vine at the front
wall, training up daintily. We are
sorry to report that the vine has
since withered and died, but another
may take it's place and then some.
Anyhow, Mr.. Reddick has materials
on the ground for a substantial ad-
dition to the house, and besides lots
OF lumber and doors and sash, there
are very pretty poles cut right for
porch supports, and Bert does not
deny that there will be a porch and
a vine.
The original cabin Is to be altered
slightly and added to. 1t is the same
cabin of which the Republican writer
spoke in his July report, saying that
it was first chinked with a combina-
ton Of -four and sawdust, and the
chipmonks and wood peckers sampled
1t and proceeded to eat the thinking
The neighbors declare they have seen
on the place with wooden
legs, and Bert did the chinking over
with lime to stop the talk. There
is no report as to the condition of
the woodpeckers.
