Tho it may be said La Crosse took
it's being from the sawmill industry,
there is no ground for asserting that
the city owes its prosperity to that
feature Of its business life: Other in
dustries and interests grew up. and it
is from these that the great establish
ments Of today have sprung. The mills
were a beginning, but the same natural
advantages that attracted them served
to bring other interests, more perma
nent In character than the sawmills and
it is on these other and more durable
interests that La Crosse now bases theI

Valentines DAY
ARROWS

Tomorrow Is Valentine day The
day dear to the heart OF the school
boy, when he can get back ali Tho
crenl teacher and truant officer. ii
Is also an especially good day for the
anonymous Letter writers, back bitefs
and knockers in general to get busy.
II Is quite the proper thing If you
have something against a person to
send them comic valentine, one
that expresses your opinion of them
IN very uniiattering terms.
Valentine day is really only d
hafbihger of spring like the robin or
city elections In spring the young
mans fancy lightly turns to thoughts
OF paying the rent and gas bills for
two, It's the mating season. In
order to show the fierce passion that
flames beneath your apparently cool
exterior it is quite de rigeur to mail
your dream vision about two dollars
worth OF paper lace, decorated with
hearts pierced by arrows. The
hearts are supposed to be life-size
fac simile of your own organ, and
the darts the glances from the fair
ones lamps, OF rather eyes.
Valentine day is a good day for
enemies, sweethearts and the book
stores, and an unlucky one for the
postman. To show that we are real
erudite We quote from the encyclo-
pedia as follows:
"0n st. Valentines Eve maids
and bachelors would assemble, and
the names OF each one of the maid
ems having been inscribed on little
billets, afterwards placed in some
sort of receptacle, each of the
young men in his turn would draw
a billet lottery fashion, and she |
whose name was written thereon was
has valentine. The |
young man was expected to be the
cavalier of his valentine for one
year from that date; to be her par
ticular knight and defender, after
the fashion of those days of chivalry.
And many real engagement, nat
lrally enough, grew out of this fan
,iful and imaginary one"

SOLDIERS RETURN
AS ENOCH ARDENS
Russians, Reported Dead, in Many
Gases Find Their Widows
Married.

St. Petersburg, April 11.-Among the
Russian prisoners arriving from Japan
there are many who had been reported
dead by the general staff and whose
wives and other relatives had been SO
informed. The unexpected reappear-
ance Of these man. is causing all sorts
Of strange family complications, as
many wives, under the impression that
they were widows, have remarked.
The newspapers contain an account of
case which happened in the province
Of Perm, where returning soldier
found his wife already the mother Of
a. child by new husband. He took
the matter to the village priest for set
Element. The first husband offered to
acquiesce to the new connubial arrange
ment If he received $25, but the second
husband was unable to pay the money,
and it was finally arranged that the
wife should return to her first hus-
band.
However, as the second marriage was
considered legal, and as official docu-
ments were at hand to prove the ap-
parent death Of the living husband, it
was decided that the child born while
the first husband was away must legally
be registered as belonging to the sec.
ond husband and that it must be cared
for by him.
