Charges of misdoings against the Off
GERS of Beltrami county have been further
complicated by complaint made by Mrs
Sullivan, of Minneapolis, to Governor j.
A. johnson.
During April 1908, her son. j. G. Sulli-
van mysteriously disappeared from Black
Duck, where he was employed at the
depot. His remains were found some
time later in the woods, and the story
given out that he had been killed by
wolves Mrs. Sullivan hired detectives
who have reported evidence that the
young man wac murdered in hotel at
Black Duck, for some $500 in cash which
he had saved. Mrs. Sullivan complains
that she submitted the evidence secured
by her detectives to the Beltrami county
officials and they refused to take any ac-
ton. She has also requested the governor
to increase the reward offered by Cover
nor Van SAINT for the murderer, from $3.50
to $500 ca

DAINTY SUMMER DISHES
Quickly Prepared, Healthful and Most
Delicious to the Taste.

TO those of our readers who are ac-
customed to eating Malta-Vita cold
with cream and in no other way, we
wish to submit some suggestions from
Mrs. May Diets Of Boyne City, Mich,
who is evidently an artist in dainty
herewith, are the kind that ''make
your mouth water'' Says Mrs. Diets:
81 certainly think Malta-Vita is one
Of the very best foods manufactured
and am decidedly fast friend of it.
l enclose three Of my favorite recipes
for serving Malta Vita.
Malta-Vita Custard.
Beat five eggs and one-half cup sugar
we'll together, add one quart sweet
milk and pinch Of salt, season with
extract of lemon or the juice of one
fresh lemon, which is better; bake in a
moderate oven. When about half done,
stir carefully in one cup of MaIta-Vita.
Serve warm or cold as preferred.
A Quickly Prepared Dainty.
Into half a dozen or more dessert
dishes place about three level table
spoonfuls of Malta-Vita to each dish,
with two tablespoonfuls of thick cream
each; cover with a stiff meringue. Sc
lect enough large, juicy Strawberries to
allow about three to each dish, roll
lightly in sugar and drop carefully at a
tasteful distance apart from the mer-
ingue. ~
Orange Flake. i
| Sprinkle about two tablespoonfuls OF
Malta-Vita into good-sized salad bowl
then layer of peeled and thinly SLICED
orange; repeat until dish is nearly full
having last a layer of orange sprinkleo
thickly with shredded cocoanut. Place
over this a heavy plate and let stano
for twenty minutes. This gives Malta
Vita time to absorb the orange juice
Remove plate and cover the whole will
meringue.
Malta,Vita is the Perfect Food, mad.
from the best white wheat that grows
and the finest malt extract. It con
tains no glucose, is easily digested, ever
by the weakest stomachs, and is rich il
building nutrition. Malta Wit;
has it's own natural sweetening and il
deliciously crisp. It doesn't belong t,
the tasteless variety of faxed Who'll,
wheat foods. Now 10 cents at all gro
Icers. Same high quality, same bi,
package as when it sold for Is cents.

John Martindale, superintendent of
agencies. for the company, repudiates
ing that he was only a general agent
and not state agent. Those to whom he
is indebted will, therefore, have to go
to law for their money. Some policy
holders, however, affirm that the poli-
cies were issued by the company on ap-
plications signed by Mr.. Morgan as
state agent.
Other persons who had dealings with
Morgan, say he traded insurance for
personal property. AS he took the
books of his office, his total indebted
ness cannot be learned for several days.
