THE LOST KISS.

And the faint, smothered laugh in the hall
And the eorie low lisp in the silence
Cry up to me over It all.

Telling how as one night sat writing
A fairy broke in on my dream
A httlo inquisitive fairy,

Como rcwdying up from her mother
And cinnoring there on my knee
For 'one little luss for my dolly
And one ittle uzzer for mel"
God pity the heart that ropollod her
And tho cold hand that TUNED her away
And take from tho lips that denied kcr

OUR BOYS IN CAMP.
D0lnxs Of the Fifteenth at Fort
Sne11ing.

Carl Torgeson was among the fever
patients taken to the hospital last
Thursday.
Capt. Spicer, Lieut.. Rice, Sergeant
Ward, and Christian D. Ring of the
hospital corps, have been in Willmar
the past week calling Oh their folks
and friends. Lieut.. Rice is under the
weather, and the few days. rest will no
doubt prove beneficial to him.
Capt. Brandt, Of Company F, stop
ped in Willmar last Friday on his way
to his home in East Grand Forks.
The Fifteenth will make it's appear
ance at the state fair the closing day.
The regiment is billed to participate
in the sham battle.
The boys suffered considerable from
excessive heat during last week. The
usual drilling had to be dispensed
with.
A petition from Co. C. asking to be
mustered out was signed by Is memb-
ers.
Corporal Ole Alstrom and Arthur
Mortenson arrived in Willmar the first
of the week for a short visit.
There is considerable talk over the
removal OF the regiment to Camp
Meade, near Middleton, Pa. At least
orders to that effect have been issued.
All the tents are now floored. Co.
D placed their flooring in Monday.
T. Lieut.. Joseph Mofit, of Lake6eld,
q member of Co. II, died at st. Luke's
hospital Monday morning.

1NTEMPERANCE AND WAR.
According to Mulhall, the great
English statistician, the leading wars
of the world between 1890 and 1880
caused a loss of 4,489,6 ,623 lives and
SIS, $40, ,000, 600, or an annual average
OF 1884 lives and Sill, 100000. Ac-
cording toequally reliable authorities,
the United States alone spent for IL
quor in the year ending June 30, 1895,
1862, 1872, 1854, five and three-quarter
times as much as the average annual
cost of the wars of the whole world
during the last ninety years. The
deaths estimated to be due to drink
in the United States alone in 1890
amounted to 1874, or nearly twice as
many as the annual average number
of war deaths in the whole world for
the past ninety years.

THE ROAD TO PROSPERITY.

IdE ftOAD ~ PROSPERITY.
It may be taken for granted, few will
be inclined to dispute it, that if there
were no opportunity to buy liquor, by
far the greater part of the money now
so spent would go to buy necessities,
comforts and luxuries for American
families.
The result of such a transfer of
patronage would be startling. To
manufacture the liquor for which the
American people pay a billion dollars,
only about forty thousand men are
employed; but if that billion of dol
lars were turned to the purchase of
boots and shoes, clothing, food and
furniture, almost four hundred thous-
and men would be required to manu-
facture the goods for which a demand
would be created. To manufacture a
billion dollars worth of liquor, raw
material to the extent of about ninety
five millions of dollars is required.
But if that billion OF dollars we're not
spent for liquor, it would be spent in
the purchase of necessities and COM
forts, for the manufacture of which
more than five times as much raw
material, or nearly five hundred mil
lion dollars worth, would be required.
The production of this raw material
would certainly give employment to
six hundred and fifty thousand men
now out of employment.-Voice.
A regular meeting of the local w.
G. T. U. will be held on Thursday
afternoon of this week at O'Clock at
the Y. M. C. A. rooms.
Those engaged in the temperance
movement often become discouraged
because of the slow progress made,
but when we remember that it is q
personal habit developed into social
custom against which we are doing
battle, we may rejoice at the rapid
strides we are making. It is no
longer q discredit to be a total alb
stainer. The use of stimulants as q
means to withstand cold climates is no
longer advocated. :. It's blighting eff
fects in warm climates has been fully
demonstrated oy its use by soldiers in
the recent war with Spain. It's use is
! not necessary for health. In fact, ii
J is fast being relegated as necessary
article to the arts and its use as medi-
!. cine. s
