Not infrequently a young woman finds it necessary to launder a shirt waist at home for some emergency when the laundryman or the home ser vant cannot do it. Hence these direc tions for ironing the waist: To iron summer shirt waists so that they will look like new it is needful to have them starched evenly with Defiance starch, then made perfectly smooth and roiled tight in a damp cloth, to be laid away two or three hours. When ironing have a bowl of water and a clean piece of muslin beside the iron ing board. Have your iron hot, but not sufficiently so to scorch, and abso lutely clean. Begin by ironing the back, then the front, sides and the sleeves, followed by the neckband and the cuffs. When wrinkles appear ap ply the damp cloth and remove them. Always iron from the top of the waist to the bottom. If there are plaits in the front iron them downward, after first raising each cne with a blunt knife, and with the edge of the iron follow every line of stitching to give it distinctness. After the shirt waist is ironed it should be well aired by the fire or in the sun before it is folded and put away, says the Philadelphia Inquirer. Same Old Voice. “No man can disguise his voice in talking through a telephone,” said an exchange operator to an interviewer recently. “Every person has some lit tle peculiarity of speech that, no mat ter how infinitesimal it may be, is sure to be actuated and made more recognizable over the wire. The man who nas a sharp ring in his voice will seem to speak more sharply; a gruff voice will be made more gruff and by the same rule an insincere voice is given a greater tone of insin cerity. The speaker who chews his words has no chance at all with a good, lively ’phone. He may only con tort his speech very slightly, but the 'phone will do the rest, and at the other end of the wire his remarks will be about as intelligible as pied type.” Farce and Tragedy. In the course of his address to the students at the opening exercises of the Baltimore Woman's college last week, President Goucher said; “A womanish man is a farce; a mannish woman is a tragedy. The enlargement of opportunity obtained through edu cation secured in such institutions as this is attended by enlargement of re sponsibility from which you cannot escape. Your highest ideal should be a womanly woman.” Oxygen in Commerce. Raoul Pictet, the Swiss inventor and chemist, has effected a remarkable dis covery concerning the manufacture of oxygen upon an extensive scale for commercial purposes. The inventor has been engaged for three years upon this invention at his laboratory in Ge neva, where he is professor of chem istry and physics. In Memory of Tien Tsin Hero.

The library building occupies the site of the house in which Captain Davis was born. The Life Guards' Giant to Marry. The tallest officer in the English army is said to be Captain Oswald Ames, of the Second life guards. The captain stands six feet eight, and is as finely proportioned as he is tall. He is to many Miss Violet Cecil, daugh ter of Lady Francis Cecil. Miss Cecil is petite and fairylike. It seems awful selfish to hear peo ple talk of wanting to get closer to God than God is to their neighbor. Shirt Waist Women. The shirt waist proved a great in vention. Nearly every woman wears one. The only inconvenience about the shirt waist is the trouble in ironing caused by starches that produce that hard, nerve racking effect. Defiance starch contains a chemical ingredient that does away with the trouble. Ask your grocer for it. Sixteen-oz package for 10 cents. Made by Magnetic Starch Co., Omaha, Neb.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is onl ♦one way to cure deafness, and that is by consti tutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucus lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hear ing, and when it is ent irely closed deafness U the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but.au inflamed condition of the mucus surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall’s Catarrh Cure. Send for sirculars, free. F. J.

Tile LIVE STOCK MARKET. Latest Quotations From South Omaha and Kansas City. SOUTH OMAHA. Cattle—There was a fairly liberal supply for this time of the week, but all kinds were in good demand and the market ruled active and steady to strong on all desirable grades. There were only about fifteen cars of corn-fed steers on sale and none of those was what, could be called finished. Anything at all desirable, how over, sold readily at steady to strong prices. Receipts Included only about thirty-five cars of cows and heifers, and buyers took hold in good shape and the market was active and fully steady with yesterday. A few of the choicest bunches possibly sold a little stronger, but still the situntion is best described by calling it a good, steady market. There was no particular change noticeable in the prices paid for bulls, calves and stags, as they have been selling in just about the same notches all the week. The strong demand for feeders was the most noticeable fea ture of the market. Buyers were all out early and paid good, strong prices for weighty cattle showing quality. The choice stockers also brought strong prices. So far as the commoner grades and the medium weights are concerned, there was not much of any change, as they were neglected more or less, the same as they have been all along. Hogs—The supply of hogs was light as compared with the arrivals of the pre vious days of this week, and ns the de mand was in good shape the market opened about steady with yesterday's average. The bulk of the sales went at $5.97%626.00. Some of the choicer loads sold from $6,006x6.05 and a few went above that figure. Commoner grades sold from $3.97% down. It was not a particularly act ive market at those prices, but still the bulk of the offer!nsgs was out of first hands at a reasonably early hour, j Sheep—The receipts of sheep and lambs continued liberal and packers were even more bearish than they were yesterday. They all tried to buy their supplies lower, but as feeder buyers were numerous and anxious for supplies they outbid the packers in many cases, so that the bulk of the receipts today went to feeders at about steady prices. A big string of lambs, the big proportion of which wTere good enough for killers, sold to a feeder for $4.25. which was considered a steady price. Mexican wethers, in the same way, were bought by a feeder at $3.60. KANSAS CITY.

ANTI-IMPERIALISTS’ VIEWS. Hope Roosevelt Will See Colonial Policy is Impossible. BOSTON, Mass., Oct. 20.—The Anti Imperialist league today issued a state ment representative ot its hope that President Roosevelt will take the view that a colonial policy for this govern ment is an impossible one. The state ment says: “The league members deplore the crime of crimes perpetrated at Buf falo. “Our grief for the dead, however, must not make us forget our duty to the living. The great questions which confront us must be dealt with. Pres ident McKinley has become an histor ical personage. His public policy can now be discussed, without prejudice. We hopo the country will accept the opinion that colonialism is an impos sible one and that the Filipinos are capable of’ independent self-govern ment. We trust that President Roose velt may speedily arrive at this con clusion. To this judgment we shall continue to appeal by every means in our power.” BOVS DUEL WITH A NEEDLE. Thirteen-Year-OlU I>uviU Bernstein Stabs flurry ninimetfarb. CHICAGO, Oct. 2G.—A large bast ing needle, such as is used by tail ors, was the weapon with which Dav id Bernstein, aged 13, stabbed 17-year old Harry Himmelfarb to death to night. Today young brothers of the boys had a quarrel. When the older boys met tonight on the street near their homes they took up the quar rel of the little fellows. Himmelfarb, who is a coatmaker's helper, pulled from a half finished coat he was car rying home a big basting needle. He plunged it into young Bernstein's thigh and ran. Bernstein, mad with pain, pursued him, and drawing the needle from his leg, he held Himmel farb with one hand while with the other he drove the long needle into his heart. Bernstein fled to his home, where he v’as shortly afterward ar rested. Negotiations Itrokcn Off.

Throw Open Dakotu Liinth DEVILS LAKE, N. D., Oct. 26—Ma jor McLaughlin, inspector for the in terior department, arrived and will proceed at once to Fort Totten to negotiate with the Indians for the cession of their unallotted lands.
