First, keep the skin In good condition by bathing regularly and often. If the skin is clean the pores aro cpen and you will per spire freely.

The result was the arrest of Frank Brough man. who confessed to taking thirty head, of which six wero on his place at tho time of the arrest. The appropriation for paying the matron at Indian agencies has been cut down and a.8 a result, the services of the matron at the Winnebago agency have been dispensed with.

Probably three fourths of tho state received a fair amount of moisture, but tho intenso heat and high winds caused rapid evaporation, and the effects of dry weather are noted In the pastures, gardens and grain fields. In somr sections the oats crop has boon prema turely rlptiiu'd, and It Is probable that tho quality of spring wheat and barley haa l been somifwhat Impaired by excesslvo heat.
