Chicago.—The whole country north of the Gulf tier of states for several days was in the grip of intense cold and there was intense suffering on every hand. There was a general, heavy fall of snow throughout the lake states and the Missouri and Mississippi valleys which added to the distress of the situation by tying up traffic in many Instances and preventing the mean ures for relief that would be taken promptly under circumstances more nearly normal. Telegraph and tele phone companies experienced trouble with their wires in virtually evety section. _______ • With excellent banking facilities gootl coniiec- tione, ample capital, a conservative and able man agement, we ask you to consider thi« bank, ami we extend a cordial invitation to you for your banking buaineea in the new year.

Scott region by reason of the recent storm, is the local telephone company. This company has had a hard struggle all the time of its ex istence but was about in a posi tion to make a better showing. The result will be to put it in hard straits for some time. I While speaking in this connec tion it is not amiss to direct at tention to the necessity of sup porting this home institution.

O ran a paragraph in these suffering is almost as bad. This columns about ruffianly conduct character of storm is particular on the streets in Lents. We have been reminded that this was not amiss. Only yesterday we were given the names of four boys—young men they esteem themselves, not young gentle men—who are reputed to belong to the class of big mouths who make night hideous with their vulgarity, and who are not back ward about abusing people whom they dislike, taking advantage of their minority for protection. While immature years may pos sibly shield them from violence, that may not prevent their be ing charged with disturbance of the peace, and if their general conduct warrants it, they may be removed to scenes more con genial to their standard of life. Nor are all the mistakes made by boys. There are a number of girls around the town, girls of ten to twelve or fourteen years, just little school girls, whose Mother’s allow them to tramp the streets of evenings, alone, or with other girls, or with boys of doubtful responsibility. Girls whose heads are full of parties and whose hair dressing and facial make-up. simply shows that they are "daffy” over some smart boys. These same girls are poor students, neglect their home duties, miss the op portunity to develope those hab its of neatness, of home making and home keeping, and will event ually become social wrecks or mighty poor wives for some near sighted man. The way to make a home maker of a girl is to in terest her in her home, and keep her there instead of on the street. NEW YEARS INVITATION Six Dead. Twelve Hurt. With Property Loss of Over $6 000.000.
