Her many friends here hope for her speedy recovery If all hunters were careful, which few of them are, there would be ittle need for the warnings that are to be found in this issue of the Rr,ATt3. Some farmers have lost much stock and suffered other loss es through the carelessness Qf hunters in the past, and they have no wish to undergo any more ex periences of that kind, so if you a hunter, it will be well for yon to get the owner's permission before you hunt on anybody's farm. A hunter's license gives no privi leges that interfere with property rights.' ;' 1 ' : , , Notice On fair day only, Friday, Oct. 6, 1911, we will charge 15 cents straight for shaves. Weaver Bros.

It al ways pays to trade with our adver tisers. Another car of poles for the La clede Electrie Light Co, was re ceived at Brookfield Saturday and the last car came to Laclade Mon day. The rainy . weather-: has delayed the work of, getting them ready to use, but it is expected that a force of men will bput to work setting the poles Monday and "the work will be rushed as fast as the weather will permit, and more men will be needed.

Patrick, F. W. Groes and the Laclede Mill are offering splendid prizes to users of their flour, and A. M Walker and Jones Bros, will give liberal specials in the horse and cattle departments. The fair association has. made the pre miums as large as possible all the way through and there should be good displays in every department. There will be plenty of music and arrangements are being made Idt a ball game or two. Come and have a good time and bring something the best yon have to enter for one or more premiums. Let a have a l display and a big lime. ter shonld marry well," to use a current phrase. But much depends upon how we interpret the word M ft XT wen." usually u is appiiea to a young man's income or financial possessions. When this is the case, the standard used is an unfor tunate one. There is not a more cruel standard by which to measure a young man than the position he is able to offer the girl of his choice V anymeans but we do believe in the good old fashioned theory of a young couple starting out into the world with a moderate income, and then climb ing upward together. Too many mothers consider their children as simply objects for the display of their own vanity and pride. Little Mary must be kept in pure white clothes all the season through, though neither the father's purse nor the mother's strength is sufficient to provide the number less chances necessary. Instead of dressing the child in sensible frocks of blue flannel.such as millionaire's children are not ashamed to wear for dav dresses, every effort is strained to reach this false ideal of dress which the mother has set up for herself. She sits up into the wee small hours of the night working on dainty gowns in which all the childish impulse tor play are stifled forever in dress array. This is the ladies' age. There is ho mistaking that fact and in spite of fate sheuis going to play no second fiddle in the near future. The ladies, bless 'em, can do any thing nowadays but fish, and al ready they are wonderfully pro ficient in that art even as far as suckers are concerned. The lady never says can't except when she means won't, and when she says. I will," yon can bet your neck she is going to if she has to sell the family Bible to do it.
