Ancient Child Burial.

There was an order in the Church of
England up to the year 1862 that If a
child died within a month of baptism
he should be buried in his chrisom in
lieu of a shroud. The chrisom was a
white baptismal robe with which In
medieval times a child when chris
tened was enveloped. A sixteenth CEN

Buckinghamshire represents Benedict
Lee, chrisom child. in his chrisom cloth.

THE OANDELlON.
No More Successful Plant and Nom

Perhaps none oil our pants ~ NOR

dandelion, and certainly none IL NOR
wonderful First Of all IT is 10; a n:,
tive. but was introduced from Euro!n.,
whence have come many of our worst
weeds, fitted by centuries of struggle IL
cultivated fields TO overcome the ma
tive plants of continent where cult
walton had previously been practically
unknown and where natives had had
no opportunity of adapting themselves
to the conditions of civilized agricu
ture
One of the dandelion's strongest
points is the ability to obtain nourisb
ment undcr strong competition and
unfavorable situations. A deep, strong.
perennial taproot draws all available
nourishment and moisture from sur
face and subsoil, stores nourishment
during the winter and enables tie
plant to start far and away ahead Of
most of its competitors. This same tap
root is exceedingly bitter. which very
likely protects it from destruction by

that had been disturbed by animals Of
any kind.
But only a small portion Of It's food
comes from the soil. Air and sunshine
are just as necessary. for the air is
food and the sunshine Is digestion for
our vegetable neighbors. Note the
shape of the leaves. Narrow at the
base and widening at the outer end
they form a dense rosette that not only
gets for the dandelion all the sir and
sunshine coming its way. but smothers
all but the most sturdy competitors
Here lies the secret OF the dandelions
presence in lawns and walks and open
waste places. In lawns the grass is
kept low so that 1t cannot Overtop and
shade the dandelion, while its own
leaves lie so low and close that they
are little hurt by the mower and can
smother the grass underneath. - Har-

NEXT CITY CLERK
WILL BE A DEMOCRAT
Aid. M. J. Moriarty and License In
sPector Jessrans Are Candidates.

Nearly five months remain before the
two council bodies tackle the question
of successor to City Clerk Mat Jensen
but this fact has in no wise dampened
the ardor of the few candidates that
have so far made their appearance.
Opinion generally gives the office to
Aid. M. J. Mforiatty,, but that gen
tleman has to qualify to the extent OF
getting bill through the legislature
permitting him to serve and some think
this impossible. He is working, how
ever, and seems confident of success.
License Inspector Charles Jessrang
is spoken of as an avowed candidate,
but If he is doing any talking regard
ing his position it is being confined en-
tirely to a heart to heart conference
with the officials whose support he de-
slres. At present his running quail
ties do not seem to be as strong as
those Of Aid. Moriarty, who is credited
with the solid support of his Demo-
cratic colleagues in the board
The name of Thomas Prendergast is
on the lips of some, but he is credited
with saying that he does not want it.
This seems to be verified by the fact
that he recently accepted the position
of a member of the water board ten
dered him by Mayor Smith.
There is some gossip regarding a
possible miscarriage and the eIecting
OF the present city clerk, Matt Jensen,
but it will not happen. Mr.. Jensen says
he would not take the Office again if
offered to him on silver platter, but
the general opinion is that he has good
reason for such a modest statement.
A Democrat will undoubtedly succeed
Mr.. Jensen.

practically prevented the destruction Of
their property. The money has been
turned over to the fireman's relief fund

for the men of Engine Company No. 4,
who responded to the Saltwater call,
and he thinks that they should have it.

mentioned the fact that all such gifts
went into the common fund. ''That let
ter came to me, so did the check, and
it is for the men who helped put out
the fire. All 1 want is the instructions
carried out as I received them"
At the meeting of the board last
night the $50 was turned over to the
relief fund. A check for 500 from the
st. Paul Gas Lighting company for
services rendered has also been given
to the same fund.

PROPHET SAYS THAT
BLIZZARD IS DUE
Prediction Is for Cold Weather and
Some Snow.

Far remote from June-fuIl and
balmy is the weather predicted for
st. Paul by the meteorological office for
today.
All to the westward things are NOV
ing at terrific rate, and it is predicted
that by an early hour today this city
will be in the full grasp of Boreas in
one Of the worst bHzzards seen in many
year, and snow may come in great
quantities. The cold will be as low
as 10 below, without much chance Of
failure, the prophet says.
All through Montana, the Dakotas,
and Manitoba to the northward, the
trains are blocked and telegraphic SER
vice is of the meagre kind. West of

alyzed completely, and in some locaIi-
ties it is feared that loss of life has
been sustained
Yesterday the Omaha train from
Sioux City, due at 1925 a. M, did not
reach the city till early in the after
noon, and the Rock Island from Chi
cago, due at 8:15, was almost as much
overdue.
The latest advices from the west
show that the Great Northern has sue
ceeded in keeping open its main line
from St Paul westward to Seattle, and
that all trains west of Spokane are
running on schedule time.

FED THE PROFESSOR.
This One Had dreams More Terrible
Than Visions of The Comet"


You must feed the professors and
teachers right or they can't do justice
to pupils. They should, of all people,
possess healthy nervous and mental
organization. The teacher with weak
nerves cannot obtain as good results
as the one who has a perfect mental
poise.
tIt had been for me a most difficult
problem" said a professor connected
with prominent college of the South,
'hoW to keep the nerves in proper con-
dition and the brain in good working
order. Lack of proper opportunity to
take exercise, an irregular diet and i'm
proper food brought on a general
breakdown in health I became irri-

dream of more terrible things than any
of DR.. Holmes visions of The Comet
Upon the suggestion of a friend, who
is a busy business man, commenced
to eat Grape-Nuts every day, and
found in a short time great improve
ment in my health; the food contained
just the right kind of nourishment for
my body and brain that was lacking
The restlessness disappeared, my
stomach ceased to trouble me, mental
vigor returned and I am now able to
do more and better work than ever
before.
when friends express surprise to
find me sc we'll, it is necessary only to
mention the merits of Grape-Nuts.

| CHANCE TO SAVE
| PARENTS $4,000
1t Is Suggested That School
A0ard Purchase Pens
and Pencils.

If the proposition made by Supt.
Smith at the meeting Of the school
board yesterday afternoon is carried
out, it will mean saving of $4,000 a
year to the parents OF pupils attend
ing the public schools.
The idea is to have the school board
purchase supplies in bulk and furnish
them to the pupils without cost The
| supplies mentioned during the discus
sion yesterday were pens, pencils, writ
ing and drawing pencils.
Pens which can be purchased for 1
cent are retailed to the pupils at /
cent EACH" remarked Supt. Bond.
There is no question that the board
can save the parents of pupils $4,000
year by having these supplies Fsecur-
ed by the board" was the comment of
Secretary Healy.
The trouble is not SO much the
price, but the fact that the pupils get
the poorest kind of MATERIAL said
Supt. Smith, "and the proper care is
not exercised in materials and habits
Of wastefulness and carelessness are
formed by the pupils"
L have received reports from the
schools that show the cost of books
materials and supplies that parents
are required to furnish for their chill
dren," continued Supt Smith, ''and
there is complaint that certain kinds
Oh. material, Such as blanks, writing
and drawing supplies. require an un-
usually heavy expenditure. l would
suggest that the matter be referred to
the committee on supplies to investi-
gate and report at the February meet
ing"
The point is made that the pupils
could use pens and pencils and have
them kept in the schools and distribut-
ed when the study of penmanship and
drawing was called. The furnishing
of these supplies by the board was the
custom several years ago, but when
the cut in the amount OF money allow
ed for the schools was made the sys-

matter will certainly be brought up

Court Holds Campbell Was
Entitled to Start Some
thing.

The desire of ]. D. Campbell, re-
Gently of Crookston, to have a talk
with his wife, who has instituted di-
Vorce proceedings against him, result
ed In his arrest and arraignnent in
court yesterday on a charge of disor-
derby conduct.
Judge Finehout, however, held that
a man had right to see his wife, and
could not be blamed if he caused some
disturbance when prevented from do
Ing so by the wife's relatives, and the
case against Campbell was dismissed.
Campbell formerly lived with his wife
at Crookston, but after some domestic
trouble the woman left him and came
to st. Paul making her home with rel
atives on Sherbourne avenue Recent
ly Campbell came to st. Paul, and with
a view to having his wife forget the
unpleasant things of the past, rented
and furnished house on Summit ave-
nue.. When the house was ready for oc-
cupancy, Campbell went to the house
where his wife was staying and re-
quested an interview. Her relatives re-
fused to allow him to see her. and he
created disturbance by pounding on
the doors and demanding admittance
policeman came along in time to ar
rest Campbell, and he was charged
with disorderly conduct.
