About Shoes.

Notwithstanding the admiration we
have for Whittier's poem of 1.-THE
Barefoot Boy" and the interest we
feel in the youngster, mankind in all
ages has been prone to shoe its feet.
Probably the cave-dwellers had no
shoes, but as soon as man began to
have an existence worth recording, he
invented coverings for his feet. The
Hebrew Scriptures, as antique as al
most any writings contain frequent al
lusions to foot-gear, making it certain
that shoes or sandals were in quite
general use. In this connection, it is
interesting to note the kinds of shoes
wornrby various nations.
The Portuguese shoes has wooden
sole and heel, with a vamp made Of
patent leather, ,fancifully showing the
flesh side of the skin.

The Persian foot-gear is a raised
shoe, often foot high. It is made Of
light wood richly inlaid, with a strap
extending over the instep. IT,.
The Siamese shoe has the form of an
ancient canoe, with a gondola bow and
an open toe. The sole is made of wood
and the upper of inlaid wood and cloth,
and the exterior is deliberately Orna-
mented in colors, and with gold and
silver.
The sandal worn by the Egyptians is
composed of sole made by sticking
to gether three thicknesses of leather.
This is held to the foot by passing a
band across the instep. The sandal is
beautifully stitched with threads of diff
ferent colors.
The Mussulman's shoe is of heavy
leather. 1t is adjusted to the foot by a
wide leather strap, which runs from
the heel and buckles over the instep.
The only ornamentation is the fasten-
ing of two feather plumes on the right
side of the toe.
In our own country, shoes are of al
most infinite variety in both material
and style. There are those for the
house, the carriage, and for walking.

Saturday Evening From an
Attack Of Pneumonia.
Jacob Erickson, Of Greenbush,
Died Suddenly-A Babe
Found Dead in Bed. 1

Artillissa Ann Reeves Bigelow, wife
of Mr.. A. S. Bigelow, one of our vener-
able pioneer citizens, after short ILL
ness with pneumonia, entered into rest
Saturday evening, Nov. End, 1895, at
the ripe age of 70 years. ''Blessed are
the dead who die in the Lord" Mrs.
Bigelow, for over thirty years, has
been a faithful member of the Congre-
gational church in Princeton, and so
far exempli6ed the truth she protested
that she was loved the most by those
who knew her best. Children, and
her children's children have grown
up about her to call her blessed.
The funeral took place at the house
Monday where brief service was
conducted by Rev. G. D. Moore. The
husband with whom she shared the
burdens of life for more than fifty
years, and those who called her
mother have the sincere sympathy
of all in this bereavement. A great
many followed the casket to the GENE
terry; and more than one could pay her
the tribute which her life had earned,
blessed are the peace-makers, for
they shall be called the children OF

Another Death.

Jacob Erickson, of Greenbush, died
suddenly last Thursday. While not in
good health his death was very unex-
pected. A couple of years ago he was
afflicted with the grip and had never
entirely recovered, but Thursday he
was about the farm as usual and did
not complain of illness until he had
nearly completed his evening meal.
He remarked that he was not feeling
well. and, left the table to go up stairs
and lie down.. The remainder of the
family completed the meal and one of
his sons on leaving the table went up
to ascertain how his father was. He
found himslying on the bed just breath
ing his last. The deceased was &C. years
old and had lived in Greenbush six
years. Death was ascribed to heart
failure. The funeral occurred Sunday
at his late residence, the interment be-
ing made at Oak Knoll cemetery.

Here's u Suggestion.

It is surprising that farmers, while
painting their barns, do not put their
names thereon. 1t is matter of much
convenience and satisfaction to those
who pass by. It should not be put off
longer. Whether coat of paint is
put on or not, or whether it has ever
had one, let the same go up any way.
It is a matter of pure business con-
venience. It is due to the public, even
were there no personal gain in it. Once
done the farming community would no
more have it undone than they would
have the business signs in town taken
down.-Gra1,ite Falls Journal.

SMITH SECTION SOLD
The Famous s56-42-26 Was Sold
at Public Sale Last Tues
day at the Capitol.
1t Was Eagerly Sought for and
Sold for p5.25 per 1000
. to II. G.. Libbey & co.

State Auditor Dunn conducted the
annual stumpage sale in the hall of the
house of representatives at the state
capitol Tuesday forenoon. In the neigh
borhood of 25,000,000 feet of standing
pine timber were disposed of at prices
much better than those of previous
years. The new law requires purchas-
ers to pay down Is per cent. of the
amount of their purchases. From this
source the state received Tuesday the
sum of $11,641, which amount was
turned over to State Treasurer Koer-.
ner. Section 36-42-26 which will go
down to history as having been dispos-
of to the G. A. Smith company by
State Auditor Biermann at 50 per 1000
feet, was sold to R. G. Libbey & Co. for
1925 per 1000.
The disposal of the pine on this Sec
tion practically closes an important
page of the history of the State of
Minnesota It was the illegal sale of
this stumpage that led to the first step
to put stop to the stealing of the
| States pine. Before the sale to G. A.
Smith C Co., the estimate of the pine
stumpage, made by Mr.. Biermann's
cruisers in 1891, was 100000 feet, and
the appraised price was sl.75 per 1000
feet. On January 25th, 1892, it was
sold at private sale, as before stated,
by Mr.. Biermann to C. A. Smith & Co.
for So per 1000 feet. 4. .......
ezlegis latures afs5:ls 500 passed
a7resolution attacking the private sale
and directing that a suit be instituted
to set aside the logging permit held by
G. A. Smith & co. This was done,
and as a result Gov. Nelson turned
into the State treasury $S,O62.4S. being
the net amount collected from the firm
for 2, 1923, O1O feet cut by them during
the winter of 1892 and 1898. A further
sum of about $4,000 was also paid and
went to defray the costs and expenses
of the suit, the value of the timber be-
ing declared by the court to be 81 per
1000 feet.
It seems, however, that there were
over 1000, 900 feet of pine on the Sec
ton instead of 100000 as estimated by
Mr.. Bierman, and if the State had
been paid for the full amount of the
stumpage under the illegal sale it
would only have received $4,000.
There now remains standing on this
section 1885, 900 feet of pine, according
to the estimate made by the cruisers
appointed by State Auditor Dunn, and
it was appraised for yesterdays sale at
81 per 1000 feet, but sold for 1926.
Therefore under this sale the State
will receive S12, S62 so or more. This,
in addition to the 5000. As already re-
ceived by decree of court and paid into
the State treasury, will give to the
school fund or the State a total of
500, 9249S, or 1924, 9Sin excess of the
sum possible for the State to have OBJ
tanned under the private sale of Mr..
Bier1nann-Pioneer Press.

We again confess inability to analyze

communication was by literal voice like
to mans; yet we cannot well question that
it was in real sense the Voice of God.
The same Voice that spoke to the Baptist
when Jesus was baptized and afterward
spoke when Jesus was about entering on
his final earthly suffering, now spoke to
the three disciples, to assure them that
Jesus was not only in fellowship with the
immortals, but was the commissioned
spokesman of the Eternal Spirit. Matthew
tells us that the cloud and the Voice caused
the disciples to fall on their faces in con-
sternation Jesus touched them and said,
with Gaming which endured AriSe, and
be not afraid Jesus was now alone. The
heavenly Wis tan!s had vanished.
AS the company came down the noun
tain-side the next day, Jesus requested the
disciples not to speak of what they had
seen until after his resurrection. Au6Mey

days tile things qoAfch they lad seen. To
prematurely report the revelation to the
disciples would be to add to their confu-

invisible realm, it was helpful to the disci.
pies to learn that, in holding communion
with him, they were still following his ex-
