Ajr r Co. , Lowll , MM. . General llon.urd , Christian Soldier. The death of General Oliver O , Howard , says the Omaha Bee , stira the emotions of people of conflicting forces , for he was a hero not only of the battlefields , but also of the crusaders in the cause of righteousness. Just as ho fighting army had been proud o march uudcr his command , BO he church militant had mussed ts forces with his banner as a rallying point. Something of he spirit of that anomaly , the 'fighting ( Juaker , " animated General Howard ; peace was his nucr wish for all men , but when t became necessary to fight he was as valiant in battle as he vas in philosophy. His ringing cry , "My country needs me , " with which he resigned the quiet pursuits of instruction and en listed for action at the front , swept through the country as an nspiration to the youth of the and That he was of the very metal that the country did need , lis subsequent career quickly proved. By the death of General How ard the list of the famous civil was corps commanders is reduced to two General Dodge and Gen eral Sickles. The career of each of these splendid.leaders of the union army has been recounced again and again and has helped to instill courage and patroitism in the later generations of American boys. The war ended General Howard had occasion to serve his country further at the head of the freedman's bureau and in some of the most remark- of Indian campaigning ; but every moment he could spare to the cause of education he gave and he became a familiar figure on platform and in pulpit. Here was the popular type of the Christian soldier , and as such he was idolized by the army of church people. The old Sunday school hymn , "Onward , Christ ian Soldier , " sung whenever he appeared , grew to be the nation al march of the militant young workers in the cause of religion. Veterans of the Grand Army , reading of his death , will re member the man on horseback cheering on his troops , but to the memory of the American public will come more readily the the picture of the stalwart Chris tian pleading for the peaceful forces of civilization , an empty sleeve pinned across his breat. Tlic Right To A "Rat" When the men and women of the present generation were child ren , Afria was still a dark and mysterious continent. Livingston and Stanley penetrated far into the interior and brought back grewsome tales of adventure. But one of the most entertain ing things in these narratives was a description of the odd and fantastic fashion among many native women of arranging their hair. It will be remembered how awesome were the pictures of those headdresses that were built up to enormous heights , or out at the back like vast overhanging mattresses. How the girls of other days were wont to laugh at these absurd styles. The African wo men were savages and therefore did not know any better than to make their appearance ridiculous in this grotesque way. But if we should hunt up those old picture books and look into them again we would be struck by an odd sensation of familiarity. Those fashions are not at all ex traordinary. The women of to day arrange their hair in much the same way. How the over hanging balcony at the back of the head ever became popular with civilized women is one of those delicious feminine mys teries that baffle the crude msacu- line imagination. The present mode of exaggerated coiffure would be ridiculous if we dared express it that way. But as long as women think that it is pretty and adds to their attractiveness they will wear their hair any way they desire , Which brings us to matter ot the right of any mau to aay that fetnlae employee hall fashion their locks to suit his taste. The local manager of a tele graph company has issued an order forbiding his women em ployes to wear "rats" as part of their headdress. He has given no reason , and it would be inter esting to know what is behind this conspiracy against the de cree of fashion. Perhaps in some mysterious way the wire "rats' interfere with the telegraph in. struments , or keep out the light. At any rate , the manager has said that "rats" must go , and the battle is on , Of course , until he advances good and sufficient reason for his order , public sym pathy will be with the girls. This is not in commendation of the "rats" , but is based on the broad principle that a woman possesses the inalienable right to twist her crowning glory into whatever fantastic form she wishes and no mau shall say her nay. It is true that the average woman is much more attractive with her hair plainly done and without sticks , wires , trellises or other barbaric accessories that fool mighty few observers. Still , if she wants to wear a "rat" the man must be well fortified with unassailable reasons for issuing a prohibitive order. Kansas City Journal. AN exchange says the sobranje of Bulgaria has passed a law imposing a tax of $3.00 per head on all unmarried men who are thirty years old or older. An organization sailing under such a cognomen might do even worse things and cause no considerable surprise.

Almost eyery family in the state will want to take ad vantage of this big cut in price in order to compare The Journal with any other daily they know about. This is just what The Jour nal folks want and why it makes such a cheap price. Its publishers feel that if a family gets The Journal habit no other will ever fill the bill after that. The Jour nal not only is a great newspaper in a strict news sense , but stands for many of the principles that are being fought for by Nebraska It's in the forefront of the battle against the saloon and refuses'to print liquor or nasty medical ad vert ising. Send in a half dollar and see what a lot you get for your money. They guarantee to slop the paper when the time is up. HUNTER'S NOTICE.

HEPPAR PHONK 125 " M The Mondell Homestead Lands , We are receiving- thousands of inquiries about the 320 acre free homestead lands available for settlers under the Mondell Act. These lands are Located in Eastern Colorado and in Wyomingalong - the Burlington. The great advant age of this new homestead law is that the sttler is permitted to take up free , 320 acres instead of 100 acres , the larger tract being required under the new dry farming methods ; Northeastern Wyoming lias from 10 to 21 inches of moisture , and has produced some of the finest crops of small grains ever seen in the west. I personally conduct excursions on the first and third Tuesday of each month to these lands. Write me for special descriptive folders , literature , etc. Irrigated Lands in the Big Horn Basin.
