The Fad of The Year.
II You Have the Poster Craze Here Is Your
Chance.

Everybody who is anybody, and
that means all nice people, is interest
ed in the poster decorative idea. 1t
has SO many forms that it would be
almost an endless task to attempt a
list, but the Great Philadelphia Sun
day "Press" has taken hold of one
possibility that is certain to get every
body in this section talking. With
every copy of the Philadelphia "Press"
of next Sunday august s. will be
given free beautiful picture, size 20
x28 inches entitled "The Maids of
Fair Japan" 1t is by Arter, and that
guarantees its quality. AS picture it
is we'll worthy of framing, but if you
wish to be in the swim you will take a
pair of scissors, cut around the lines
of the girls faces and the flowers, and
then paste the picture on dark back
ground of any material. Try it and
you will have the most striking poster
effect of the year. 1t will be neces-
sary to make certain early this week
that you can get next Sundays
Press" because the demand is certain
to be tremendous and the supply will
be limited.

subscribed for it, or move away and

Mile Lacs county will enjoy large
influx OF bonatide settlers during the
coming season, many having already
purchased new homes and returned to
bring their families. The lands in this
vicinity are sold at a very low figure
at present and are of a quality that
cannot be surpassed anywhere in the
union. The productiveness of our soil
is becoming we'll known and besides
those who are seeking lands for farm
ing purposes there are many who are
coming here to enter the stock busi-
ness. Mile Lacs county furnishes an
excellent range for cattle and its
meadows produce excellent red top,
timothy, blue joint and other varieties
OF grasses for winter feeding. For
stock-raising or diversified farming
there is no country that can excel that
OF this Immediate vicinity. s@z@

r PAYMENT OF TAXES.
Laws Governing Their Collection Are of
Interest at This Time.


Last week the UNION published a
'waif of the press which was sup
posed to give information concerning
the payment Of taxes, but it was filed
with Inaccuracies and Judge VanAl-
stein has kindly written an article set
ting us right. His synopsis Of the law
is as follows:
The tax lists for the current year
pass into the hands of the county
treasurer at the close of business hours
on the first Monday in each year, when
all taxes become due and payable.
Personal property taxes become de-
linquent on the first day of March in
each year, when a penalty of 10 per
cent Immediately attaches. On the
fifth secular day of April next follow
ing in each year the county treasurer
shall make a list of personal property
taxes remaining unpaid or the first
day of April in each year, which he
shall certify to the clerk of the dis
trict court, and on the fifteenth secular
day of April in each year said clerk of
court shah issue his warrants to the
sheriff of the county for the collection
ofssaid taxes.
Taxes on real estate, if not paid on
or" before May 81, of each year: are
liable and become subject to a penalty
of 10 per cent. on the first day of June
in each year and become delinquent on
the first Monday Of January next fol-
lowing when further penalty OF S per-
cent. attaches. The tax payers may,
at their option pay one=half OF such
taxes on or before May 81 a nd the re-
naming one-half on or before October
81 next following, but if the last one
half remains unpaid on the last named
date then a penalty of 10 per cent. i'm
mediately attaches; and if still re-
naming unpaid on the first Monday in
january next following, then further
penalty of 5 percent. attaches anu the
tax becomes delinquent and the same
procedure is taken as in other lands,
but the judgment can only be entered
for amount of unpaid taxes. ~..... g..
The list of delinquent taxes must be
delivered to the clerk OF the district
court on Or before January 30 in each
year,when there is a cost of IS cents
on each and every description TO be
added, and on February 10 n5,each
year all Of said lists are in the hands Of
the printer when an additional cost of
12cents on each and every such de-
scription attaches, and must be paid
in order to redeem such delin-
