Suit Against standard OIL.

CHICAGO, Oct. 1.-The Standard Oil
company today filed its appearance in
the federal court and the date for
hearing the plea of the company was
set for November 10. The case against
the big trust is that involving the
series Of indictments returned by the
federal grand jury some time ago, in
which it vas charged that the Stand.
ard Oil company had violated the
anti-rebate laws over 1000 times in
this district within the last three
months.
This Is the first time the company
has been forced to appear in :his dis.
tr:ct. Heretofore the company has
always been permitted to appear by its
attorney. This case is creating more
interest than any brought by the gov
agents since the beginning OF
the present crusade against corpora.
tions violating the antitrust laws.

RESTAURANTS.

The First Of Them Was Established
In Paris In 1765.
For a long time inns and eating
houses in France were only intended
for the benefit Of travelling people, for
the people took their meals at home
and restaurants were unknown. The
first enterprise of the kind was found
ed In Paris in 1865. A citizen by the
name of Boulanger opened in the Rue
des Poulies an eating house where
soup, meat, fowl and eggs were serv-
ed. A chronicler relates that meals
were served there on small, round
marble tables and everything was scru-
pulously clean.
Over the entry to this first eating
house the proprietor had hung a sign,
upon which were the Latin words, I've
mite ad me omnes quae stomacho labo-
rats, ct ego restaurabo vos" Come
unto me all We whose stomachs need
attention, and l will restore them.
This is a parody on the well known
Biblical quotation, "Come unto me all
We who labor and are heavy laden, and
I will give you rest" only in place Of
labor and heavy laden he said, "whose
stomachs need attention" The word
''restaurabo," from the Latin 'restau-
rare" (~restore or refresh), was the
main characteristic Of the new estab-
lishment and gave it its name. Bou-
LANCER amassed a large fortune, for
his enterprise proved eminently sue
c~essful, but he was soon initiated, some
Of his imitators becoming more famous
than he.

A Child Wonder.

The French Academy Of Sciences in
1923 examined the case Of a French
lad only seven years old who, in all
respects save that Of intelligence, was
the equal of a man of twenty. His re-
markable physical development began
when he was two years old. At four
he could do the farm work Of a boy of
fifteen or sixteen, and at seven he was
a fully grown man. Although his
physique was thus remarkably devel-
oped, his intelligence was no greater
than that Of children of the same age.
BE died before he was twenty. AS is
usual in such cases of premature de-
velopment, his strength faded away,
and he became prematurely old before
other men would attain maturity.

The 2oth annual session Of the North

session this week on Wednesday. Thurs
day and Friday at Fargo. Supt. P. S.

dent of the association and left on Tues.
day for the Gateway city. Miss Bertha

education.
Last Friday Alfred Skinner. who
teaches Gladstone school No. :, and his
sister, Miss Lucretia who teaches school
No. 2. in the same district, held joint af-
ternoon Christmas exercises at the school
house OF the latter. A tree was provid-
ed and after an interesting program had
been rendered, Santa Claus appeared,
and there was an interesting time for the
little folks as we'll as for their teachers
who had taken so much pains to make
the occasion a happy one. These
schools have taken one weeks vacation.
Wednesday evening Supt. L. R. Wal
dron left for Fargo, thence to 60 to
Washington, D. c.. to spend six weeks
with the department of bureau OF plant
industry. The agricultural department
has called all its field men in for a short
period in order that they may get in
better touch with the work of the differ
ent sections of the country. Before re-
turning home in February, Mr.. Waldron
will visit relatives in New York and
Connecticut. Mrs. Waldron and the
baby remain at the Dickinson expert
ment station home.
These are days of hard work for post
Office forces, and the Dickinson office is
no exception. Load after load of mail
has been coming daily to the local Office
the past two weeks. Few Deonle have
any idea of the extra work the holiday
rush involves. On Monday fourteen big
sacks of mail were sent south on the
New England stage; heavy mails have
also been going north from this large
distributing point. The star route bust.
ness. however, is small when compared
with the mail which is daily distributed
for the patrons of the Dickinson office.

PUT OFF OR PUT UP.

A man said: my Christian life is like
a Jack-in-a-box.' Touch a spring and
up comes Jack (the old Many out Of
my heart" Is your experience and life
of the "Jack-in-the.box" kind? What
then? Shall "Jack" be put down every
time he pops up7 St. Paul says, "Put
off (not DOWN the old If We put
Old Man Jack down, he may keep US
busy. The. spring may let him up at
every slightest touch. But if we "put
off the old man. we are done with him
once for all. The Bible remedy for this
"Jack.in-the-box" experience is to put
off the old man and to put on the new
man, to put IN Christ" Let us 60 to the
point where we can truly say, "Our old
man is crucifed with Christ, that the
body of sin might be destroyed" That
will put an end to "Jack-in-the-b box"
carnality.-Selected.
Many a christian has had and still has
the experience above noted, and such
people are very largely responsible for
having it so long. The blessed Book
has an effective remedy for all that kind
of life, and the only reason many Of
Gods children live such an unhappy
life is because they are unwilling to take
the Word for their guide, or they expect
to outgrow these Jack in-the- box ex-
%periences, an expectation which has
never been nor ever will be realized.
Man cannot break Gods Word and
hope to succeed. Come to the Sunday
services where the way is made plain.
Don't forget the 80 minute song service
at 1890.
