Lightning From a Clear Sky.

Friday morning the people of Hills

IN the way of lightning freaks. We
have heard of things being s'as startling
as thunder from a clear sky, and we
We're givona demonstration of this fg-
ure of speech. The sun was shining
brightly and the sky was clear except
for a light Swimming cloud. The at
mosphere was quiet and the least ex-
pected OF all things happened. A sharp
Hash OF lightning together with an ac-
companying clap Of thunder sprang
from an unknown source and startled
the people beyond expression. The tel
ephone was burned out, and ATTORNEY
Bates, who was standing in front of the
hotel was knocked down. Mrs. L. IT,.
Tongue was also felled by the shock,
n every one in town was startled ac-
cording to their proximity to the central
place OF the current and their nervous
disposition. The freak was of an en-
tlrely local nature and those outside of
town barely noticed it. AS vet it is an
unexplained phenpmenon.-Sentry

WHY HE SUCCEEDS.
from Wausau Daily Record

Nst @NN1cAo
Next month there will be a material
increase in the attendance of the educa-
tional institutions throughout the state.
Farm work will be laid by and hundreds
OF young men and women will employ
their well earned vacations in attending
school. To many the education secured
this winter will be the first step on the
rounds of the LADDER that leads to sue
cess. Many others, however, will re-
turn home ne better prepared for n
useful vocation than they were a year
ago. In most instances the difference
Will he due to their failure to select a
practical course of study and to patron
izing inferior schools.
The demand of today is for business
education. We need more money earn
ers and fewer money spenders, more
Young men and women who can take
hold OF the actual affairs of every day
business, and less cheap teachers, doctors
and lawyers. The demand of today is
for young people with business educa-
ton, and the demand is in excess of the
supply.
Of the schools that offer this kind of
an education, the Toland Business Uni
versities stand prominently at the head.
as they differ in every material respect
from what is commonly called a 'ebusi-
ness college" The editor of the Record
has known F. j. Toland and his schools
for twenty years. He is a success. He
succeeds where others fail. because he
does for his students what othsrs promise
TO do, and more and because his gradu-
ates, unlike the graduates of similar
schools, are thoroughly prepared for the
best paying positions and get them. We
know whereof we speak. Two of the most
rapid and accurate stenographers aver in
u employ are his graduates. Each Is
now receiving 81, 900 per year, and an
other, In this city, is receiving 81, 200.
and we know that every student that
graduated from his school in this city
has secured, through his influence, a
good position and that many we're sent
to positions even before they graduated.
+. j. Toland's fame as an educator has
constantly increased until he today
stands, unquestionably and absolutely at
the head of business training in the
Northwest. His name is a synonym for
practical education, and diploma from
any of his schools is a positive guarantee
of competency and superiority.
NOTE:-The Mr.. Toland referred to in
the foregoing owns the Wisconsin Bust
ness University Of La Crosse, Wis, and
Winona, MINI. The winter term at
each of these schools begins Monday,
Nov. 8. If you are interested and desire

The Country Must Expand or Burst.

In the course of a letter renewing his
subscription to the CENSOR, Hon. John
Stevenson writes from his new home at
Breckenridge, Minnesota: .Ihave been
improving a half-section of land, four
miles out. We raised quite a crop of
flax on the breaking, and sold it for one
dollar a bushel. Crops of all kinds were
good this year. The weather is fine vet.
and farmers are blowing and threshing.
The people are patriotic. We had the
pleasure of seeing and hearing President
Mckinley and his cabinet, at the town
across the river, Wahpetol, on the 14th,
at about midnight. TWAS a great sight,
not the a but the president of this
great country getting out in the cold air
to greet and talk to his fellow citizens at
midnight. Don't be afraid of expansion.
Our people are so much in favor of con-
verting other peoples to our kind govern
ment that we must expand or bust"

drawn my association from the concern.
| desire to thank the people for their
liberal patronage and support of the en-
