Fontanelle club gossip since the primary last week has centered around a new polit ical star In the prospects and aspirations of Ourdon W. Wattles, the drift of the talk being that Wattles is exactly the find the "anti-boosters" have been looking for. What the antis have hitherto wanted most has been a bnrrcl to tap,, and Mr. Wattle's lavish generosity in his spurt for the national convention has satisfied them that he in Just their man. How to , keep his ambitions fanned Into flame and hold the door of thn bank open for the cashing of drafts are questions that are already engaging the Fontanelle club patriots. "Wouldn't Wattles he a crackerjack as a senator la Millard's place?" suggested one of them over the lunch table. "He can be senator, or anything else he wants. If he only stays with us," was the j rejoinder. That explains aJso why Mr. Wattles put on the committee to arrange for trans portation for the delegates to Lincoln. A special train Is a fine thing, only the freight rates are usually heavy but the committee Is expected to attend to all that. 25c THOUSANDS OF YARDS OF EXTRA WIDE EM BROIDERIES & FLOUNCIKGS, worth 75c, yd Beautiful embroideries in finest Swiss and cambric widths up to 20 inches, specially adapted for corset covers, chil dren's dresses, etc scores of handsome new designs actually worth up to 75c yard, at, yard 50c Pillow Covers at 25c f'nMied v m tops and backs with new hemstitched borders -all colors and hundreds of new designs justthe thing T)T for summer porch and hammock pillows, at Extraordinary Silk SaJe 75c and $1 A brand new shipment comprising Silks at 10,900 yards of the most fashionable 25c a yard silks pongees, messaline, foulards, for shirt waist costumes, etc. also five lots of 45-inch voile chiffon cloth worth Jr Hsf 75c and fl yard, at As V V Special Sale of Bonnet Black Taffetas $1.00 Quality Dress Taffetas CftA ...

FORMER WIFE CLAIMS DOWER Woman Asks Court to Award Her Part of First Husband's Estate. Mrs. Nellie J. Mallory has filed a petition In the probate court asking that the will of her husband by her first marriage be set aside and that she be allowed the sum of 11,815 from the proceeds of the estate. The facts, as recited In the petition, show that the petitioner was married to Joseph C. Ernst more than twenty years ago. She claims that upon the birth of a son about a year after the marriage her husband or dered her to give the child away or to dispose of it, and that upon her refusal so to do he left her and has never lived with her since or contributed to her sup port or that of the child.- The petitioner B B EMibUstisd 1Mb.

LOUIS Report States that Tbls la Hot Part of Hill's Plans for North and South Lino to Gulf. Reports In circulation in railroad circles are to the effect that James J. Hill has quietly bought up the stock of the Des Moines & Fort Dodge railroad until he now has control of the property. It is said that Mr. Hill has secured possession of this line to give him a direct outlet from Min neapolis and Bt. Paul to Bt. Louis via Des Moines. It also will furnish him a good freight route from Sioux City to Bt. Louis, and will serve to connect the northern Hill lines with the extensive coal fields of Iowa which, It Is said, Mr. Hill has long desired to tap with his lines. It is understood that the Des Moines & Fort Dodge purchase has nothing to do with the alleged plans of Mr. Hill to acquire a north and south line from Minneapolis to the gulf.

Nine-tenths of the diseases of the scalp and hair are caused by parasitic germs. The Importance of this discovery by Prof. I'nna of the Charity hospital, Hamburg, Oi-rmany, can not be overestimated. It ex plains why ordinary-hair preparations, even of the most expensive characti-r, fail to cure dandruff: because they do not and they can not kill the dnmlruff germ. The only hair preparation in the world that positively destroys the dandruff parasites that burrow up the scalp Into scales called scurfT or dandruff, is Newbro's Hurplclde. In addition to Its destroying the dandruff germ Herplclde is also a delightful hair dressing. Bold hy leading drueglsts. Band 10 cents In stamps for sample to The Her plclde Co.. Detroit, Mien.
