Gladstone Is Dead,

William Ewart Gladstone, the grand
old man of England and the foremost
British statesman of VictOria's reign,
is dead. He has had an extended
illness and since Monday was subject
to serious attacks of the heart which
marked his rapid failure until the
final summons came early this morn
ing, May 10. This famous man was
born Dec. %, 1909, and was therefore
So years, months and 20 days of age
at the time of his demise. Mr.. Glad
stone was the father Of eight children,
six now living, of whom Herbert
John, the youngest is the most dis
tinguished. Mr.. Gladstones first
speech in parliament was separated
from his last by span of little over
sixty-One years. He was 81 when his
voice was last heard in the arena of
politics. Very few men in all the
worlds history have had so crowded
and so eminent public career as was
that of William Ewart Gladstone.

WisCOnsin's Semi-CentenniaI.

Time will work wonders. Half a CEN
fury of push, progress and advance,
has developed the crude, wild territory
of Wisconsin into the proud Badger
state of to-day. Fortunate in its poss-
essIons of rich mineral resources, splen-
did timber lands and fertile soil; by the
aid of the mighty hand of civilization
large cities have sprung up, immense
manufacturing plants have been erected
and fine farms developed. 70 properly
celebrate this progress, Milwaukee IS
making great preparations for the
carnival to be held next summer.
A very important factor in the up
building Of Wisconsin is a railway
system known as the Wisconsin Central
Lines, which traverses the state from
the southern boundary, north to Lake
Superior, and west to st. Paul and
Minneapolis.
Running through the rich mineral
belt and forests of Northern Wisconsin
iron ore deposits, beds of clay, kaolin
and mari, together with plenty of hard
wood, as well as pine, offer extraordin-
ary inducements for the location of
factories and manufacturing plants.
Low freight rates. uneXcelled facilities
for reaching the market, and quick
transit of shipments, make the offer
very attractive. Manufacturers and
other interested can obtain detailed
information by addressing w. H. killen,
Industrial Commissioner, Milwaukee,
Wis.
A word to the poor man, or of moder-
ate means Farming lands in northern
Wisconsin are of the best and can be
obtained cheaply and at reasonable
terms. Any man of thrift, by industry,
can build a home for himself and family
and make a fine living on one of these
farms. Illustrated pamphlets and maps

Farmers Institute for 1898-99.
University of Wisconsin. !
Madison, Nav 10, 1898. !


Madison, May 10, 1898.
Farmers or public spirited business
men who wish to secure an Institute
for their locality during the winter
season of 1S9S-99 should send 70 this
office for blank petition and letter of
information. Any town no matter how
small or how far from the railroad, is
entitled to an Institute provided it is
located in a farming district, and has a
good hall in which meeting can be
held.
The Institutes of 1918 were all we'll
attended and more interest was mani
tested than ever before. A number of
towns also held a mid-winter Fair in
connection with the Institute. From
the correspondence and large number
of petitions now reaching this Office we
believe the season of 1889 will exceed
the past one. Address all communica-
tions to Geo. McKerrow, Supt.

The Best Remedy for Rheumatism,


Mr.. James Rowland of this village,
states that for twenty-five years his
wife has been a sufferer from rheuma-
tism. A few nights ago she was in such
pain that she was nearly crazy. She
sent Mr.. Rowland for the doctor, but
he had read of Chanberlain's Pain
Balm and instead OF going for the
physician he went to the store and
secured a bottle of it. His wife did
not approve of Mr.. Rowland's purchase
at first, but nevertheless applied the
Balm thoroughly and in an hours time
was able to 90 to sleep. She now
applies it whenever she feels an ache
or pain and finds that it always gives
relief. He says that no medicine which
she had used ever did her as much
good. The % and so cent sizes for sale

Che 3ewtsb month.
TAMUz.

Being aneven month"; Tamuz has twenty nine days,
and being in the latter half of the year. this number
is invariable. The name of the month comes from
the Assyrian, and is really the name of Semitic god,
known among the Greeks asAdonis. It was thought
that this god was the spirit Of vegetation and ac-
cordingly the central summer month was put under
his charge as the crops would depend upon the fer
tity of that month. Ofcourse, there no idea of
this superstition in the Jewish calendar which merely
adopts the name, but not the significance, from the
Assyrians.
In Jewish annals this month is celebrated for being
that in which the first breach occurred in the walls Of
Jerusalem during its siege, and the 18th day of the
month is accordingly kept fast from daybreak
in memory of the beginning of the downfall of Jeru-
salem, on which SO much depended both for the Jews
and for the world.

In Ancona the Jews occupied an excellent position

For peace-loving, peaceable people, the Jewshave

is the God of Battles; the All-Mercul in carrying
out the Israelitsh ideal of righteousness and justice,
takes very grim visage at times the same still
small voice which revealed itself to Elijah is the
Thunderer, and in the Song OF Moses it is said the
Lord is man of war" The Jews have taken this
up in their ritual. They very fond of Israel's

Moreover the traditional melodies reflect this feeling.
