Fond du Lac Saloons to Contain Pho
tOsraDhs of G.HabituaIs

Fond du Lac Saloons to Contain Pho
tOgraphs of ''HabituaIs.'
Habitual drunkards in Fond du Lac
are hereafter to be photographed and
their photographs will be posted in every
saloon in the city. A resolution to this
effect has just been passed by the Com
mon Council. The resolution was intro
duced by one of the saloon members of
the Council. The reason for the action.
he says, is that a man whom the Council
might declare ha6itual drunkard might
be known to only two or three saloonkeep-
ers, and after being posted" might go
to any saloon where he was not known
and obtain drinks. The police would then
arrest the innocent saloonkeeper. If ey
cry notice to saIoOnkeepers, forbidding
them to sell liquor to a certain person,
contained a picture of that person, the
dealer could post it in a conspicuous place
and he would then know instantly if that
man applied for drink. The task Of Sc
curing pictures of drunkards and sending
the notices to the saloons is placed upon
the police

Making Baby,s Clothes.

It used to be considered part of the
eXpectant mothers duty to provide all
the pretty garments for the child, and
these to be of finest material and hand
made, of course. That is all changed
now, and it is considered as very detri-
mental to the mothers health to spend
months on fine sewing. The little gar
ments are now generally purchased,
are machine made and much cheaper
than they used to be.

Playing with the little people
Sweet old games forever new;
COaxing, cuddling, cooling. kissing,
Baby's every grief dismissing,
Laughing, signing. soothing, singing,
While the happy days are winging-
This is what the mothers do.
Planning for the little people,
That they may grow brave and true;
Active brain and busy fingers
While the precious seedtime fingers,
Guiding, guarding, hoping, fearing,
Waiting for the harvest nearing
This is what the mothers do.
Praying for the little people
(Closed are eyes of brown and blue),
By the quiet bedside kneeling
With a trustful sure appealing;
All the Spirits guidance needing,
Seeking it with earnest pleading
This is what the mothers do.
Parting from the little people
(Heart Of mine, how fast they grow y
Fashioning the wedding. dresses,
Treasuring the last caresses;
Waiting then as years fly faster
For the summons of the Master

Cure for NEURALGIA.

Women who suffer from neuralgia
will be interested in the simple remedy
suggested and might try it. If the neu-
ralgia is on the left side, dip the right
hand in water as hot as can be borne,
and if it is on the right side, dip the
left hand. AS the fibers of the fifth
and median nerves cross, the theory is
that any impulse applied to the right
hand will affect the left side of the
face, and vice versa.

WILL HELP MANITOWOC.
New Railroad Deal Means Entrance |
of Milwaukee Line.

One result of the reported consolidation
of the Wisconsin Central and the Milwau-
kee roads will be to give the latter an
entrance to Manitowoc and a lake outlet
to connect with a system that will be
extended to the coast. 1t is recognized
that Manitowoc, being the terminal of
the ferries which offer the shortest route
direct to the east, would be a great source
of revenue to the Milwaukee road and
would take away much Of the Northwest
ern's exclusive trade. 1t is said that the
Illinois Central has an option on all the
property north of ManitOwoc on either
side of the Little ManitowOc river.

I ing is reduced from taking the ten
cans to the creamery every day to
taking two cans of cream every other
day, or three cans twice a week.
The hand separator allows the
dairyman to feed the skim milk to
calves or pigs within a few minutes
of the, time it is drawn from the udder
and before the natural animal heat
leaves it. This saves warming the
milk and allows its use when it is per-
fectly sweet and fresh.
The hand separator saves hauling
skim milk from the creamery to the
farm, and it also saves the dairyman
from the risk Of getting milk from dis
eased cows to feed to his young stock.
This Is not great risk, to be sure,
but 1t is worth considering. Tuber-
culous cows are frequently found In
this country, and probably there Is
hardly creamery among the patrons
of which no COWS suffering from
this disease could be found. If the
| dairyman is sure of his own cows
the hand separator saves him from
the risk of getting tuberculous milk
from the mixture in the milk vat at
the creamery, from which he gets his
skim milk when he delivers the whole
milk.
+ The saving in work is large item.
| Instead Of ten cans to care for ana
keep clean and free from germs, there
are only two. This saves labor and
the investment Of money in utensils.
At the low price at which hand sepa-
rators are sold, one will pay for itself
time and again before 1t wears out,

toned above.
There Is another item. The hand
separator Is rapidly bringing about
the Capitalization Of the creamery In
dustry. Cream gathered from hand
separators is now transported as far
as 200 miles to the central creamery,
and here It Is made into butter AZ
much less cost than would be possible
In the local creamery with limited
field in which to operate. This allows
the creamery to pay better price for
butter fat and gives the dairyman
more money from his cows.
The man who keeps as few as five
cows will find It to his advantage to
buy a hand separator, especially IL he
makes butter on the farm. for In such
case the saving In work Is much
greater than where creamery takes
the cream.
