Olga turned pale, Karl stood at atten-

holy book firmly in his hand. The

The operation was purely clerical,

entirely painless, so far as Mr.. Earl

There was no formal action neces-

the fact that the stock was retired yes

In order that there might be no legal
bitches, however, the precaution was
taken to accomplish the retirement as

Judge Lochran at Minneapolis late
Tuesday afternoon dissolved the tenn
