ONE HUNDRED YEARS AGO.

had to pay a tax if they powdereu
thelr hair and buy a license in the
bargain; the poor complained they
could buy no meat because the rich
bought it all to feed their dogs and
it was advised that the dogs be killed.
The women of society one hundred
years ago wore patches and powder
and quilted skirts and the men were
attired ln knee breeches, ruffled shirts,
wore queues, took snuff, fought duels
and turned highwaymen when all else
failed. This, of course, applies to so-
piety 111 Englanfi and Europe, for

He Is Still In It.
It was confidently asserted to the
Argus Monday by a well -posted politician that "Mysterious Billy" Judson is
about to add another Washtenaw
county man to bis list of Pingree appointees. This will be the home run
that ends the ball game which "Billy"
has been pi .ying so fiercely of late.
When Judson appointed the numerous
deputy oil inspectors throughout the
state—making sure that only those who
could play Pingree ball should get the
plums—his work as the head of that
department was practically finished.
The.reward he had been promised all
the time is the wardenship ofthe state
prison. By the death of O. M. Barnes,
of Lansing, there was a vacancy on the
prison board. Holmes, of Chelsea, of
course, is for Judson. Bills, of Allegan,
js agginst him: Pingree is very liable
to run as au Independent candidate for
governor, and he will need some democratic votes. His appointment of a
dtmocratic successor to O. M. Barnes,
who was a democrat, will give them a
hint of what he might do in case of his
election as an independent. '-'Billy"
JvidsQi. anc. Mike Lehman, have been
seen in close consultation for the past*
few days, end the politician spoken of
in the beginning of this article states
positively that Mr. Lehman will be appointed on the prison board. This will
make certain 0/landing Mr. Judson in
the wardenship.—Argus.

A Valuable Souvenir.
The special Christmas number of
"Book of Trains," issued by the Lake
Shore ^ Michigan Southern Ry., is
pronounced by a prominent librarian
to be not only a most beautiful and
valuable souvenir of the day, but, he
says, that "nowhere has he ever found
so many good things about Christmas." The publication contains a
choice collection of poetry aud prose
from favorite authors; also a charming short story of Christmas eve, and
it is beautifully and profusely illustrated with half tones, etchings, crayon and pen and ink effects, all from
original drawings especially selected
from various texts A copy of the
bsok can be obtained for four cents in
postage by applying to A. J. Smith, G .

E. B. Munday, a lawyerof££enrietta,
Tex., once fooled a grave-digger. He
say . "My brother was very low with
malarial fever and jaundice. I persuaded him to try Electric Bitters, and
he was soon much better, but continued
their use until he was wholly cured.
I am sure Electric Bitters saved his
life." his remedy expels malaria,
kills disease germs aud purifies the
blood; aids digestion, regulates liver,
kidneys and bowels, cures constipation,
dyspepsia, nervous diseases, kidney
troubles, female complaints; gives perfect health. Only 50j at L'ster &
