Thompson wants Laboratory.

Food Commissioner Thompson is worry
ing some these days over the establish
ment of a laboratory. Heretofore the com
missioner's work has been done at the
university, but this year Chancellor An
drews has informed Mr.. Thompson that he
objects strenuously to any such arrange
ment. Consequently Mr.. Thompson is seri-
ously considering the establishment of a
laboratory in one of the third story rooms
in the capitol. To do this would mean the
outlay of about $4,5OO, but Mr.. Thompson
believes It can be done and the amount
charged to incidental expenses. In the
meantime, however, he will see the regents
of the state university and ask them to
overrule the chancellor's objection. The
regents do not meet until July. hence
nothing will be done before then.

Selecting state Architect.

The State Board of Public Lands and
Buildings will meet Wednesday, June 8,
TO select a state architect, as provided for
by the late legislature. The architect will
receive a salary of $500 per year and his
assistant 1920 annually. The board has
been laboring under the impression that
the architect was not to be appointed until
July, but recently the attention OF the
board members was called to the fact that
the bill creating the office passed the legis-
lature with the emergency clause attached
1t is probable that only the chief will be
selected Wednesday and the selection of an
assistant left for future date.

KISS AND MAKE UP.

When Mrs. Bengejerdes and Oh
Caivet eloped from Wjlmont some
weeks ago they turned loose a SEN
sation that shook things up some.
They went to Chicago together.
Calvet got job there, and in q
short time wrote his wife to come
and live with him again. This she
refused to do until Mrs. Bengejerde
got out of the way. She was will
ing to forgive, but she wanted to
forget and she couldn't do that
without Mrs. Bengejeraes gave up
all association with her husband.
Finally Mrs, Bengejerdes left Chi
oago and returned to her home at
Fulda. Then Mrs. Calvert hardened
to the appeals of her chubby, ;
packed up her goods and left a few
days ago for the Windy city.
Then Bengejerdes called up her
''hnbby" by phone and asked to be
taken back into bis heart and home
Only the ''Hello" girl Knows just
what the conversation was between
tho twain, but the result of the talk
was that Bengejerdes drove over to
Fulda last Saturday and brought his
penitent 'frau' home with him.
Both were as happy as if there had
never been a cloud in their matri-
monial sky, and the anserine biped
lace Webster) was suspended at an
that was simply sublime.
