In such haste as to have little luggage,

hospitality, He had no cuffs, and a
local reporter promptly drew off his

that the donor of the cuffs worked for
the San Antonio Daily Express, and
the superintendent of the news bureau
upon hearing Of the incident immedi-
ately wrote to Frank Grice. owner Of
the Express, in appreciation of an act
peculiarly southern in It's frank good

Thatched Roofs In England.

'The matched roof. which makes the
English cottage picturesque, Is doom
ed," said an architect. "For some
years 1t has been going gradually.
Soon it will be altogether thing of
the past. Fire insurance is the cause
Of the thatched roofs disappearance.
No company will insure a cottage or
It's contents IL the roof Is matched.
They who want Insurance must sub
stitute for the roof Of thatch tiled
one. AS long as the English cottager
remains ve"y poor so that his house
and furniture are not worth insuring
he keeps matched roof over his head.
AS soon as he begins to prosper and
lays in household goods Of value he
takes out a fire policy and away then
goes his matched roof Louisville

whi.tler saved Him.

A certain famous English poet whose
name the reader must be left to fill in
for himself was once threatened with.
expulsion from a swell London club
for dancing a fandnngo upon the silk
hats Of other members. james Mac
Neill Whistler, however, interposed and
saved him with his eloquence. One
man Of genius, Mr.. Whistler urged,
was worth my number Of silk hats,
seeing that silk hats could be replaced
and men OF genius could not. Then
and not till then the irate committee
reconslde its decision and accepted
the apology which was rendered.

Butter aa n Food.

Butter is a hydro carbon, and all ex
cesses of it are stored up as fat in the
body. It gives energy and power to
work to those who eat heartily of it.
For any one afflicted with consumption
butter cookery, if plenty of fat can
be digested, is one of the best ways Of
curing the disease should it be in it's
early stages or Of keeping it at bay if
advanced. 1t is not economy to spare
the butter at table even to the healthy
people. Butter lis not simple fat
composed merely of one sort. 1t is a
mixture of no less than seven different
sorts of fats, and no more complex oil
can be taken than this. For dyspeptic
and liverish people good bread and but
ter, along with fruit, should invariably
take the place of pie, pastry and bis
cults. Pastry for such people is only
another name for poison, and biscuits
are as often as not baked with lard

SHARP. but Not clever.

A London scientist says that life in a
metropolis makes young children sharp,
but not clever; that It often destroys
theif chance of ever being clever, for
It hastens the development of the brain
unnaturally. 1t makes them superb
cial, alert, but not obseryant; excitable.
but without one spark Of enthusiasm.
They are apt to grow blase, tickle, dis.
contented. They see more things than
the country bred child, but not such
interesting things, and they do not
properly see anything, for they have
neither the time nor capacity to get at
the root of all the bewildering objects
that crowd themselves into their little
lives.

Souvenir Letter.

E A. Barker, the well-known
druggist, has issued a novelty
in the shape of a souvenir letter
of Bemidji.
The souvenir is in the shape of
a pamphlet and contains eight
pages of picturesque scenes of
Bemidji and it's vicinity. =
The first sheet is blank and is
intended to be used for writing
the letter upon. The edges of
the souvenir are gummed and
perforated so that after sealing,
it can be opened without injury
to the pamphlet and the views.
Among the views are cuts of
the Beltrami county courthouse,
the Crookston Lumber com.
pany's mill, Bemidji game, in the
shape of a majestic moose, one Of
the many beautiful outlets of
Lake Bemidji, the rustic bridge
along the upper lake shore moon
light on Lake Bemidji, a foot
path along the shore, and sailing
on the lake.
Sry,-
The pictures will advertise
this city as we'll as be excellent

A Spelling Test.

The catch question has often been
asked, ''How many words in the Eng
lish language end in dous?" The com
mon answer is four-hazardous, jeopar-
dous, tremendous and stupendous. As
q matter Of fact, however, there are
i've, and the word often overlooked is
hybridous, meaning mongrel or of
mixed sort.

Drinking of Healths,

The drinking of healths in wine or
liquor or other kinds originated in Brit
ain at the time of the rule of the
Danes, before Alfred the Great finally
succeeded in driving them from the
land. Owing to the assassination Of
Englishmen by the Danes, it became a
custom to enter into compacts for the
mutual preservation of health and Sc
curity. These compacts We're usually
pledged in wine, and hence the custom
Of drinking healths.
