A Terrible Mistake.

A celebrated German physician
was once called upon to treat an
aristocratic lady, the sole cause of
whose complaint was high living
and lack of exercise. But it would
never do to tell her SO, SO his med
ical advice ran thus:
Arise at 5 o'clock, take walk
in the park for one hour, then drink
cup Of tea, then walk another hour
and take cup of chocolate. lake
breakfast at s.
Her condition improved visibly
until one morning the carriage of
the baroness was seen to approach
the physicians residence at light
ming speed.
The patient dashed up to the doc
tors office, and on his appearing on
the scene she gasped out, ooh, doc
tor, took the chocolate first =
"Then drive home as fast as you
can" CALCULATED the astute disciple
of Hsculap, rapidly writing a pre-
scription, SSand take this emetic.
The tea must be underneath The
grateful patient complied and con-
tinued to improve.

Bees Carry Toilet Cases.

The tongue Of the hive bee is a
most elaborate structure, admirably
fitted for helping to pump up nee
tar. The wax producing organs Of
the bee are certain glands on the
underside Of the abdomen, which
are surmounted by thin plates, on
which the wax is deposited in flakes,
like miniature fish scales. It is TAX
en- from these plates by a pair of
shears or cutters, admirably adapt
ed for the purpose and formed be-
tween two joints Of the hind legs.
1t is passed to the mouth, where
it is chewed and rendered plastic by
the jaws. The hind legs have many
beautiful structures and modifca-
lions fitted for gathering pollen and
cleansing the bee, while on the front
legs there is regular comb and
brush, admirably adapted for clean
ing the antenna, or feelers, which
are very delicate and important
sense organs.

The Life of a Bird.

Small singing birds live from
eight to eighteen years. Ravens
have lived for almost a hundred
years in captivity and parrots longer
than that. Fowls live ten to twenty
years and are then sold as spring
chickens to young housekeepers.
The wild goose lives upward of a
hundred years, and swans are said
to have attained the age Of 800
The long life of birds has been in
terpreted as compensation for their
feeble fertility and Tor the great
mortality Of their young.
Obviously, as Weisnian observes
such birds must reach great age,
or they would long ago have been
exterminated.

A Bad Train Wreck

An east-bound 500 line freight
train collided with the Omaha
road south bound Twilight Limit
ed at Turtle Lake Junction, last
Wednesday. The baggage and
day coaches on the Omaha train
telescoped the depot, setting the
structure on fire and destroying
it and the three coaches, entail
ing heavy loss, but injuring no
one except Baggageman Morgan
of Minneapolis, who was serious
ly hurt.
A day coach was crowded with
lumber jacks, who ALMOST miracu-
lousy escaped injury. The en-
tire contents of the baggage and
express cars, as we'll as the cash,
tickets and contents of the de-
pot, were consumed.
The 500 freight had stopped
for the crossing, but theengineer,
thinking the track clear, started
up, crashing into the limited.

How Some Coins Were Named.

The origin Of the names Of coins
in present use is curious. In many
cases they imply a standard Of
weight that lost its significance long
ago. This is the case with the Eng
lish standard, the pound. The word
shilling is of German derivation,
like penny, which comes from the
German pfennig. The word crown
comes from the image placed on the
coin. The name franc was given
BY King John, who first coined these
pieces in 1860. They bore the mot
to lie Roi Frank" king of the
Franks) and were Of two kinds,
one representing the king on horse
back, the other on.foot.

Haywa1'u's 8lg election N7uaales.

y
of Sawyer county and the town
officials of the town of Hayward
maintained boycott against a
newspaper started at Hayward a
year ago by w. 3. Schei, called
the Enterprise, the county of
Sawyer has been torn into the
greatest fractional fight perhaps
aver known in Northern Wiscon-
sin. Not only has it resulted in
the bitterest political feeling
imaginable, but it has permeated
every avenue Of society, extended
into the churches, and life long
friends refuse to speak when
they meet on the street. One of
the bestknown ladies of Hayward
is authority for the statement
that the Ladies Aid Society of
the principal church of the place
is completely demoralized, that
the leading church of the place is
suffering for wantof support, be-
cause the minister is supposed
to be partisan, and that financi-
al aid has been withdrawn to such
an extent that the church is suf-
fering from the fight. On the
evening following election a mob
of fully a hundredc citizens, led by
a woman, turned the old town
officers out of the town offices.
In the mob there were two or
three women who were the real
leaders, and the old town officers
who wanted to hold possession of
the offices had to vacate to save
trouble for themselves. The
newly elected officers guarded
the offices with winchester rifles
part Of the time, andan outbreak
looked probable for days. The
Sheriff evidently believed matters
had come to such a state that
troops were needed, and wired
the Governor to that effect, with
fiae result that Adjutant General
fSoardman was sent to the scene
of the trouble, and remained on
the grounds for several days.
The great trouble that occurred
on election day and the succeed
ing day was due no doubt more
than anything else to the desire
and efforts of the sheriff, who
was intensely partisan, and was
using the power of his Office to-
wards keeping the defeated town
officials in power.
Hayward is the county seat Of
Sawyer county, and Hayward is
in fact Sawyer county. When
the county was organized in the
early eighties only one town was
provided for. This was owing to
the entire interests being center
ed at Hayward. Since then the
county has developed consider
ably, but according to law,no new
towns could be created except
by a special act Of the legislature.
In town elections, therefore, the
entire voting population have to
cast their votesat the one polling
place. At the recent election
1907 votes were cast, $50 ofwhich
were Indians from the Lac Court
d'Oreills reservation.
When the Enterprise was
established in Hayward last year
it Immediately started out to adj
vance the best interests of the
county, and made very respect
able bid for public favor. Editor
