TO SELL OR NOT TO SELL.

The Question Jackson County, Wis. Has
to solve, Regarding Its Lands.
BLACK RIVER FALLS, Wis, Nov. IA.
The county board of supervisors for
jackson county is i'll session. The ses-
sion promises to be short and unimpor-
tant, barring the county land question,
which will, no doubt, open up conflict
ing ideas concerning the disposal Of
vast tracts in the eastern part Of the
county. The lands i'll question, aggre-
eating several thousand acres, were
formerly covered with valuable pine
and hardwood, and were originally en-
tered by the various lumbermen, who
operated on the East Fork waters of
Black river. In course of time the tim
Der was removed from the lands, and in
most cases through delinquent taxes it
reverted back to the county, and today
the county owns vast tracts, which have
turned out to be
Valuable as Agricultural Lands.
Several syndicates have made offers
on township lots, and the question with
the board is, whether the interests of
the county would be better conserved
by holding the lands for actual settlers;
or selling the same to syndicates, who
would, no doubt, colonize the lands
thus now rapidly opening up country
capable Of sustaining vast population.
Several hundred acres have been sold
the past summer at prices ranging from
S40 TO $6e per 20 acres.

Annlea for the Comnlexion.

Helen Campbell says: "a modern
scoffer has lately written that the
reason Eve yielded to the serpent was
because apples were good for the com
plexion, and he told her SO. Whether
the argument was needed or not, It is
q true one. Nothing in all our varied
and fascinating range of fruits hatds
quite the quality Of an apple. A ripe.
raw apple, at it's best, is digestsd In
eighty-f1ve minutes, and the malio
acid which gives its distinctive char
acter, stimulates the liver, assists d.
gestion and neutralizes much noxious
matter, which, if not eliminated, pro-
duces eruptions of the skin. They do
not satisfy like potatoes, complain
people to whom they have been rec
commended as food, but the starch of
the potato, added to the surplus starch
we are always eating, makes the veg
etable thoroughly undesirable stand
by. The more fruit we add to our
dietary the clearer brains and the
clearer skin we are likely to have"

Mr.. Thaddeus Sholto ceased, and sat
twitching on his luxurious settee We
all remained silent, with our thoughts
upon the new development which the
mysterious business had taken. Holmes
was the first to spring to his feet,
