The success of a business firm is most
always reflected in legitimate and
judicious advertisements. This week
we publish page advertisement for
the enterprising and popular firm of F.
w. Kruger & Co. 1t is unnecessary
for us to give the particulars attendant
upon the progress of this firm for it is
well known to the readers Of the

lies in the fact that they do just as they
advertise and sell a first-class article
in fact they won't keep poor article in

dating, genial and pleasant with their

Pleasure in California.

| During the winter months the resi-
dents Of the Eastern States make the
best of forbidding conditions and amuse
themselves in various ways by a large
expenditure of energy. They work
hard, but they have sport. They mus
be careful to avoid the numerous
dangers with which very cold weather
surrounds them. All of their efforts al
amusement are struggle against a for.
bidding and uncongenial aspect Of
nature. They simply create all the
pleasure they get; nature, instead Of
helping them, presents constant pro
test against their pleasure. During
these same months the visitor il Cali
fornia simply has to sit down and en-
| joy more pleasure than his most active
efforts could have secured in the
Eastern States; and if he wants 70
double the pleasure which mere in
activity affords, he can do so with the
least possible exertion. At all times he
has abundant sunshine in California.
for the rainy days are few and short,
and there is neither snow nor ice to
make him prisoner. Flowers bloom
increasingly in the garden, and fresh
fruits are always at hand. Watermelons
and Strawberries grace his Christmas
dinner.
All along the coast Of California the
summers are cold enough 10 make
WOODEN slothing comfortable. In the
Eastern States the wretched inhabitant
wears the thinnest of clothing, and
then suffers from the heat. The Cali
fornian goes camping or strolIing
through the woods Hith no fear of a
drenching, for the California summers
are rainless. The mountain scenery is
OF infinite variety and unapproachable
majesty and beauty. Large and elegant
hotels abound at all the seaside resorts.
Splendid vineyards and orchards exist
everywhere, and the most gorgeous
wild flowers abound.
All the most beautiful resorts and
wild retreats of California are reached
by the lines Of the Southern Pacific
Company. Any Of the following of the
company will give information on this
subject: L. Hawley, Assistant General

GOOD nARkETS.

There is probably but very few
places in the State with better markets
and better railroad connections to
reach good markets than is found in
the Twin Cities, and no place we know
OF any where is any better adapted for
growing all kinds Of small fruits than
this section here.
With our railroads run ming North
South, East and West We can reach all
parts Of the state, and our county ought
to build up reputation in fruit grow
ing second to none. Everybody ought
to plant enough for their own use and
some for market, and remember that
you can get the very best plants, bushes
and trees If Messrs. Purdy & Read OF
the Wood County Nursery that can be
procured anywhere and at prices lower
than can be procured from any other
nursery.
Agents Of eastern nurseries will
charge $3.50 per dozen for raspberries
and 81 per dozen for black berries but
you cae get 100 at the same price if you
patronize HOME INDUSTRY. Remember
and call for anything you want OF

WROTE SERMONS WHILE ASLEEP

Remarkable Accomplishment ts OF u Young
SOmnambuiist. r.
One of the most remarkable and puzzling
cases Of somnambulism is one told by the
bishop of Bordeaux. The subject was q
young ecclesiastio a. the seminary. The
bishop was 80 deeply interested that he
went nightly to the young mans chamber.
He saw him get out of bed, secure paper.
compose and write sermons. On finishing
a page he read it aloud. When a word dis
pleased him he wrote a correction with
great exactness. The bishop had seen q be-
ginning of some of these somnambulistic
sermons and thought them we'll composed
and correctly written. Curious to ascer-
tain whether the young man made use of
his eyes the bishop put a card under his
chin in such n as to prevent him
seeing the paper on the table before him,
but be still continued to write. Not yet
satisfied whether or not he could distin-
Ruish different objects placed before him.
the bishop took away the piece of parer
on which he wrote and substituted several
other kinds at different times. He always
perceived the change. because the pieces of
paper were of different sizes. When a
piece exactly like his own was sub
stituted he used it and wrote his correc-
lions on the places corresponding to those
on his own paper. 1t was by this means
that portions of his nocturnal compositions
were obtained. His most astonishing pro-
duction was a piece of music written with
great exactitude. He used q cane for q
wers all in their right places. The notes
were all made as circles, and those requir-
ing it were afterward blackened with ink.
The words were all written below. but once
they were in such large characters that
they did not come directly below their
--l ALs- H.
them all and wrote them over aRain.-St.

LONDON, Juno 23.-tThe new financial pro-
posals in connection with the proposed es-
adjustment OF an Irish parliament were
issued to-day. Tit original clauses relat-
ing to a separate consolidated fund and
taxes, to hereditary revenues and an in
come tax. to financial arrangements be-
tween tho United Kingdom and Ireland. ara
omitted from tho new proposals. The new
scheme provides that the revenue I've di.
yjded into two classea-generRl ana special.
The general revenue IN to consist of the
gross taxes, Ireland's portion OF the heredi-
tary Drown revenues, aud u certain amount
of customs and excise duties collected in
England on articles consumed in Ireland.
The residue of the general GLASS OF revenues,
after Ifeland's imperial contribution shall
have been paid ia to form the special reve-
nue.. IrelnnI is to boar its own civil
charges. A separate exchequer and consol-
idated fund is to be established. The taxes
supposed by the Irish parliament are to
form n part OF the suecial revenue to be ap-
piled TO the public service of Ireland.
Postage duties in Ireland, until the impe-
rial contribution shall have been revised,
ste to be imposed by the imperial parlia-
ment. II the poatof1ice revenue are less
than the expenditures the deficiency must
be paid to the imperial exchequer out Of

ODDITIES IN TAXATION.

Social Parties and Even Wearing Apparel
Once Du,iable in Holland.
The archives of Holland contain some
ordinances which may we'll be regarded as
curiosities Of taxation. In the year 1866
there was a tax imposed on ell passengers
travelling in Holland by land or water. In
1871 this tax was still in force. In 1914 a
duty of FIVE cents WAS levied on each person
who entered o tavern before noon. The
tax was increased for afternoon visits.
Persons who assembled in a private house
after three O'Clock in the afternoon for the
purpose of amusing themselves had each to
pay a certain sum, and those who entered
a place of public amusement were likewise
taxed. There Vas n duty on marriages and
deaths. The amount of the tax varied ac-
cotding to the social position of the parties;
whilo in the cRse of a person buried out
side of the district in which he had lived
the amount payable by his executor was
doubled.
But the most curious tax of oil was one
imposed in 1874 on boots and shoes. In
order to prevent the impost from being
evHded, each of those articles 80 essential
TO human comfort had to be co~uspicuously
marked on the upper leather with the
stamp of the maker and also with that of
the taxing officer. The sum to DO paid was
regulated By the size of the boot or shoe.
SO. apart from the question of beauty, in
those days it was Il real advantage to have
e small foot.
