THE city of Washburn has lost
about two hundred people in it's
population during the past five
years, as is shown by the census
reports. This certainly is not a
good showing, andone of the rea-
sons that can be assigned for it
is the outrageous taxes that peo-
pie have to pay on their small be-
longings. Washburn must get
down to some sort of business
basis in it's public affairs before
it can start to progress. A town
that is making an electric light
ing company an annual present
of three thousand dollars need
hardly expect to grow very fast.

SOME of the newspapers pur-
port to believe that Governor La
Toilette will refuse to accept the
senatorship, but will remain as
governor of Wisconsin, and quote
someof the Governor s utterances
to prove the belief. While this
may be true, still it seems prob.
able that the governor will ac-
cept the high Office rendered to
him by the people of Wisconsin.
and will take his place in the
United States Senate, as the
work to come before the senate
in dealing with railroad rate
matters is just such as he would
delight in participating in.

A Woman.s Complexio N


It is rank foolishness to attempt
TO remove sallowness or greasiness
of the skin by the use of cosmetics,
or local" treatment, as advocated
by the "beauty doctors. The only
safe and sure way that a woman can
improve her complexion is by purify
ing and enriching the blood, which
can only be accomplished by keeping
the liver healthy and active. The
liver is the seat of disease and blood
pollution. Green's August Flower
acts directly on the liver, cleanses
and enriches the blosd, parifes the
complexion. 1t also cures consti-
patton, biliousness, nervousness, and
induces refreshing sleep. A single
bottle Of August Flower has been
known to cure the most pronounced
and distressing case of dyspepsia
and digestion. New trial size bottle
20 cents; regular size 70 cents. AT

AIDING THE MEMORY.
Mnemonic Systems Have Been In Use
From Time InnlemOrfaI-

From Time ImmemOriak-
The art of rendering artificial aid to
the memory by associating in the mind
things difficult to remember with those
which are easy of recollection Is SAID TO
have originated with the Egyptians.
The first person to reduce it to system
was. according to Cicero, the poet 81
monides. who lived 500 B: G.. His plan
is known as the topical or locality
plan and was in substance as follows:
Choose a large house with a number OF
differently furnished apartments II 1t.
Impress upon the mind carefully all
that is noticeable in the house so that
the mind can readily go over the parts.
Then place a series of ideas III the
house-the first in the hall, the next in
the sitting room, and SO on with the
rest. Now, when one wishes to recall
these ideas in their proper succession,
commence going through the house, and
the idea placed in each department. will
be found to readily recur to the mind
in connection with it.
1t is related that this mnemOnic plan
was first suggested to the poet by a
tragic occurrence. Having been called
from a banquet just before the roof of
the house fell and crushed all the rest
of the company, he found on returning
that the bodies were SO mutilated that
no individual could be recognized, but
by remembering the places which they
had severally occupied at the table he
was able to identify them. He was
thus led to notice that the order of
places may by association suggest the
order of things.

DESPERATE FIGHTING.
ssThe Men Threw Themselves on the
BayOnets of the Enemy"


BayOnets of the Enemy"
1t is a phrase merely to those of us
who do not know war at first hand,
Then the men threw themselves on
the bayonets of the enemy" 1t sounds
desperate and dramatic, but this ac-
count in Blackwood's Magazine by a
naval sublieutenant at Port Arthur
shows what it really means:
For thirty long minutes hand to
hand struggle had continued. Men
threw grenadeS in each others faces.
Half demented samurai flung them
selves upon the bayonets Of the dozen
Muscovites that held the traverse in
the trench: Who shall say that the day
of the bayonet is past? Although there
was not breech that had not its car
fridge in the chamber, yet men reused
to the limit of their animal fury over
look the mechanical appliances that
make war easy. They thirsted to come
to grips, and to grips they came,
But il had to end The old colonel
had fought his way through his own
men to the very point of the struggle.
He stood on the parapet, and his rich
voice for a second curbed the fury OF
the wild creatures struggling beside
him.
Throw yourselves on their bayonets,
honorable comrades" he shouted.
Those who come behind will do the
rest!''
His men heard him; his officers heard
him. Eight stalwarts dropped their
rifles. held their hands above their
heads and flung themselves against the
traverse. Before the Russian defend
ers could extricate the bayonets from
their bodies the whole pack of the war
dogs had surged over them. The trench
was won.

Few Suggestions for
TO-niOrrOW'S S Diversion

An exciting game for Thanksgiving
might be called Hunt the Turkey" 1t is
played by using a number of tiny boxes
one containing a turkey or its equival-
ent
For this sport secure at shop one Of
those little candy boxes in the likeness
of a roasted fowl All of the large depart
ment stores now keep these bonbonnieres.
You will need also dozen or more
small white boxes as much alike as pos
sible. These can be secured at a triiling
expense.
But if these are not available, any empty
boxes will do, and the turkey may be
personlhed by using a picture Of one cut
from any card or magazine.
Have boxes just large enough to con-
tain the turkey. Tuck it away in one Of
them. In each Of the others put some
absurd object, such as a lump of sugar
or a peanut. carefully wrapped in tissue
paper. Now hide the boxes here and there
about the room, wherever there is cor
ner to conceal them, like the nuts in a
nut search.
When the guests have arrived, the host
ess explains that a prize is in waiting for
the man or girl who first discovers the
Thanksgiving turkey.
This must be done by searching the
room for the boxes, one Of which con-
tains the object sought. Any player find
ing a box opens it as quietly as possible.
If it contains the turkey he claims the
prize. II not. he replaces the lid Ohaving
folded the tissue paper as he found IT'D,
hides the box again and continues his
search.
The box containing the turkey should.
Of course. be more difficult TO find than
any of the others.

makes nice prize. Being available for
either scarf or bodice. it can be presented
to-a prize-winner of either sex.

Marriage and state and Church.
From the New York Sun this morning
Bishop Doane, in his address to the
Diocesan Convention Of the Episcopal
Church at Albany last Tuesday urged
that that Church should adopt and pur-
sue invariably the principle that no
marriage shall be solemnized by the
Church between persons either OF
whom has been divorced from one
who is living at the time. That is he
would make marriage in the eyes oi
the Church indisso!uble except by
death.
This. as is well known, is the posi-
ton taken by the Roman Catholic
Church, and unquestionably it is a
position which a Church can right
fully take without offence to ON
civil laws of marriage and divorce. a
corollary of that position, however, is
the legal marriage of record from
the marriage solemnized by the
Church.
n other words, the clergy should be
