SPAIN GLAD TO
LOSE A BURDEN
UNCLE SAM FAVORED HER BY
TAKING COLONIES.
So Says Spanish Resident Now III
Minneapolis He Declares that
Spain Is Now in Better Industrial and
Political Condition Than for Many
Years.

Industrial conditions in Spain are far
better than they have been for many
year; political conditions are as good
as ours and the country is rejoicing at
having gotten rid of its colonial bur
dens This is the declaration made by
at the West hotel for a few days.
"Anarchism has practically. disaap-
peared from Spain; the young king, who
is now in his twentieth year and is
really one of the people, is idolized; re-
publicans such as they have in Italy
are not in evidence a; on US Us and lt the e
king goes about among his people much
as your president does. It was not so
long ago that he was in the wine eel
lars of the house l represent. The
doors of his palace are open to all, like
great big house. The people are
content with him and his ministry.
There is no such thing as revolution
over there's r'~~--.r.
petus since the close of the Spanish
American war, according to Mr.. Young
er. "The minister of agriculture is in
tent on making the most Of Spain s op-
portunities, and there is demand for
Spain wines such as. has not been
from burden of supporting Cuba and
the Philippines governments the people
of Spain are putting their money and
industry into producing those things
from the soil which have made her rich
before and can make her rich again.
Competition with California wines
is not as keen in this country as it useC
to be because people are learning thai
California sherry is not sherry at all
and as far as they are able to pay fo1
it, are buying Spanish sherries. Fo1
my part, l don't know where all thu
sherry used goes to. In Chicago, TO:
instance, there is used at least 260,00(
gallons of sherry a year, and Minneapo
lis is one of the biggest sherry consum
ers in the country, in proportion to it
population. The improved conditions il
the business of this country will proba
bly, be still more encouraged by agita
ton looking to the passage of a Law
prohibiting the use of the word sherry
on any bottles not coming from Spain
This would be similar to the Unite
States law which says that no bottl
marked cognac' can come from an
, country except France.'

Spanish mother, was educated i

two years in the latter country and

States. t'You have probably heard m

JUST HAPPENED IN
Special Significance Of Bakers Meeting
Denied by j. J. Regain.

J., J. Regain explains yesterdays
meeting of master bakers in Mime
apolis as purely accidental. Paul Stern
Of Milwaukee came on from the con-
clave of knights Templar at San Fran
cisco and became aware of the presence
of Lohis j. Kolb of Philadelphia only
thru T h j ourna I. -. 49, .
A national combine for maintaining
bread prices would be impossible, ,ac-
cording to a, leading master baker of
Minneapolis. 1t is very difficult to
maintain even local agreement.
Several possible ways exist for alb
sorbing the heavy expense of flour I'M
der high wheat prices. One of these
is to discontinue wrapping Of loaves,
which has already been done. Another
will be to refuse to take back "stales.'
This will cause the grocer to be more
careful in ordering, and will do away
with the expense of taking back I'M
sold broad each day. @..
w. NJ. Regain Of Minneapolis, whose
torn Of office as president of the Ma
tional Association of Master Bakers
exp red at the convention recently held
at Omaha, was presented with val
liable gold souvenir badge.

SAVING FOR GRAIN MEN
PostoffIce Authorities Change Glass O
Samples In Sacks,

POSLOTTICG AUTHORITIES CnSnSG SIdSS OF
Samples In Sacks. $500
Thru a decision Of the postofrice au-
thorities received at the postoffice today,
local grain dealers will be able to sent
wheat samples as third class matter, with
the selling price attached to the envelope,
instead Of fourth-class. This means the
saving of considerable sums to the grain
houses, as third class postage is but half
that Of fourth-class.
This decision was reached only after
prolonged investigation and correspon-
dence. The question arose thru the sam
pie envelopes having such tags as these
attached: -"824e-Sold &c.," "3940,
C. G. W.-Sold 42c." The postal regula-
tons permit third -class matter to have a
tag attached bearing the word from" and
the name, occupation and address Of the
sender and any marks, numbers and
names which are for the purpose of de-
scription, but no matter in the nature OF
personal correspondence.
| Samples would ordinarily go fourth.
class, but wheat samples passed as third
class under the provision made for seeds
Thus there was no trouble on that score
The dealers explained that tho letters and
figures referred to the price test, cal
numbers, etc. This was satisfactory tt

HARD LINES FOR

NEW STORAGE RULES WILL AL.
TER TRADE METHODS.
Hereafter Western Shingles in This
Market Will Be Handled More Large

Plan Gave the Broker the Best Of It.

"Brokers will be more careful about

head Of firm of big Washington cedar
single brokers' this morning, when

Manufacturers and big brokers alike
welcome the order which puts a mini
mum change of So for thirty days stor-
age upon carloads Of cedar shingles, as
it will co away with cutting under the
market, by the small brokers, who have
put shingles in transit from the mills
before selling them, and find it, neces-
at cut prices. With the storage charge;
increasing after the first thirty days,
the lightweight broker will be less
likely to take on demoralizing load.
The railroads are tickled over their own
order, for it will do away with storage
privileges which were often abused by
even the big transit lines.
The heavy storage charge will make
ineffective another feature which has
helped the cut-price broker to keep his
head above water. This was the car
rying Of freight charges by the. rail;
roads until the shingles were consigned
and delivered to destination. The
freight plus S. for unloading and re-
loading the car, and eventually they
would be cleared by the consignee: Thus

GIRLHOOD'S DANGERS.

Simple and Certain Method by Which
Chlorosis, Frequent Affection of Grow
ing Girls, May be Overcome.
Every mother knows that the danger line
in the development of q girl is crossed at
the point where girlhood and womanhood
meet. Ills that Turk in the blood then dis
close themselves and, if neglected, become
seated diseases disturbing all the later life
and frequently lead to consumption and the
most frightful arrangement of the nervous
system. This critical point cannot be too
closely guarded Care insures robust
health neglect means living misery.
Mothers of growing girls can profit by
the experience of Mrs. E. G.. Young, of
No. 303 Lynn street, Ithaca, n. Y, who
was safely brought through her girlhood's
critical period by simple course of treat
ment, after physicians had failed to help
her.
"When / was seventeen" she says, 81
began to fail in health and, in spite of all
the medicines our family doctor gave me,
continued to grow worse. Neither he nor
another doctor who also attended me SEEM
ed to be able to reach the cause of my
trouble. 1t was chlorosis, they said, a form
OF anamia with which girls of about that
age are often afflicted. l was troubled with
shortness OF breath, hadn't a bit of color
and couldn't go upstairs without being all
tired out. My limbs were dreadfully swol-
len and my appetite entirely gone. | had
nervous headaches for which doctor
recommended glasses, but the glasses did
not cure them. Each month | suffered a
great deal Of pain and was very irritable.
"This condition kept growing worse for
three years until finally it became intoler-
able and | began to hunt eagerly for some
remedy that could effect a certain cure.
Finally found friend who said she had
been cured of similar trouble by DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills for Pale People, after her
case had been pronounced hopeless. Upon
her strong recommendation | decided to
| take this remedy. Relief was almost i'm
mediate and after using the pills for a short
time l was cured altogether and have re-
NAMED perfectly well and strong ever
SINCE"
The value of such remedy is beyond the
power of words to express, for it determines
the happiness of a lifetime, and it is fortu-
nately within the reach of all who need it.
These pills have also cured locomOtOr
ataxia. partial paralysis, St. Vitus' dance,
sciatica, neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous
headache, after effects of the grip, palpita-
ton of the heart, pale and sallOw complex
! ions and all forms of weakness in either
