To relieve headache, correct dis- orders of the stomach and increase the appetite, and for the cure of liver complaint, use Ayer’s Cathartic Pills.

Mrs. Joe Meyer entertained a number of her lady friends at lunch- eou Saturday afternoon. Those present report a delightful time, as they always do when entertained by this estimable hostess at her elegant- ly furnished home on North Main. If the seams of the Buckskin Brerecuses were the kind that rip, while the buttons were poorly fasten- ed, and always coming off, we would not say they were good pants. As it is each detail is perfect. The seams, buttons, pockets and fit are all the best. They are the best pants we know how to make. The literary entertainment given at the opera house last Friday even- ing by prof. W. W. Heathcote had decided merit and was greatly en- joyed by a large audience. Professor is a very fine elocutionist, | a man who has evidently had large experience in entertaining mixed audiences. His readings and recita- tions were excellent,and the tableaus were very fine. The homes of G W Ford, JP | Long, W J Hughes and John Filten living west of Kingsville, Johnson county, were entered by burglars Sundsy night in the absence of the families at church.

The other evening young Geo. | Moxwell, who had been in the em- | | ploy of an undertaker, called upon 4 the young lady. The conversation between them drifted to the subject of his gruesome calling. Mise | Orated declared that she would not be afraid to visit an undertakers’ es- tablishment, to handle shrouds or to even lie down ina coffin. Moxwell dared her to go with him and put on a shroud and lie down in a cof- fin. They repaired to an establishment, | and, after examing the funeral trap- pings, Miss Orsted slipped a white | shroud over her dress, and then laid down in a coffin and folded her . | hands across her breast. Moxwell placed the lid on the coffin, and the two, look at each other through the | glass in the lid, conversed. The coffin was resting ona low | truck standing on an elevator, which commuuicated with a morgue and | dissecting room below. The idea flashed into Moxwell’s head to extin- guish the electric lights in the room and send Miss Orsted below. He touched a button, the lights went out and the coffin and its precious ‘load shot down to the morgue. The young lady was terribly frightened. | She sprang from her recumbent po- sition and threw the lid from the coffin, and there, by the dim light of a lamp, she saw on a slab the naked bloated body of a “floater.” She gave a shriek, swooned and sank back into the coffin.

A Word With the Populist. The populist party isa poor place for democrats, yet we find here and there a democrat who says he will vote the populist ticket. Missouri Populists, professing friendship for free silver and low tariff, succeeded last year in electing a dozen or more republicans who opyosed free silver tariff reform and Western interests geuerally.
