Got Even With the 1nterrupter.

The little man was expounding to
his audience the benefits of physical
culture. "Three years ago." he said,
was miserable wreck. Now what
do you suppose brought about this
great change in me?"
What changer" said a voice from
the audience There was a succession
of loud smiles and some persons
thought to see him collapse.
But the little man was not to be put
out.
will the gentleman who asked
what change kindly step up here?"
he asked suavely. II shall then be
better able to explain. That's right"
Then, grabbing the witty gentleman
by the neck: when l first took up
physical culture could not even lift
little man; now (suiting action to
words) l can throw one about like a
bundle of rags" And he flung the
interrupter half dozen yards along
the floor
Il trust gentlemen, that you will
see the force of my argument, and that
1 have not hurt this gentleman's
feelings by my explanation" There
were no more Interruptions.

disguise the taste that not even an
epicure could detect the taste of the
labeled original. Neither is there any
means of determining from the food
itself whether, if not adulterated, it is
not the refuse of the market, so de-
composed that it could not be sold.
These are the very things which Pro-
fessor Ladd is doing, however. He is
telling the public what impure and
adulterated foods are offered for sale.
But he can not stop the consumption.
What is necessary is that every
housekeeper list the brands of foods
that are not strictly pure and accord
ing to the brand and refuse to pur-
chase them.
They would thus become unstable
in the stores and the manufacturers
would be forced into putting out an
honest product or going into bank
ruptcy.
In the forcing of the impure and
adulterated food products from the
markets the housewives hold the key
and they can use it with telling effect
if they will exclude from their pur-
chasing lists evey article upon which
the pure food commissioner has
stamped the brand of fraud.

1t appears that, meeting friend on
the street, the convert made inquiry
touching the health of the formers

bad" was the answer.

the solemn assertion of the convert.
GAS a mattah of fact, she only thinks
she got de pleurisyi Dere amt no sich
thing"
Nothing further was said on the sub
ject; but few days after, the two
again meeting, the convert repeated
his inquiries touching the aunt's con-
dition. Does she still persist dat
she's got de pleurisy?"
mo, indeed" came the reply; ode
poor woman now thinks dat she's
dead. We berried her Yesterday"

TOWNS AND INDUSTRIES.

Many of the smaller towns of the
state are awakening to the impor-
lance of establishing manufactures.
Many of them are small, 1t is true,
but they mark the beginning of an
industrial revolution in the northwest
In the south before the war and
during the carpet Dagger days after,
the people were agriculturists exclu-
sively. They grew cotton and corn
and tobacco. and shipped the raw ma
terial to New England or Europe to be
manufactured.
The country became poorer every
year. An industrial change took place
and manufactures We're located in
that country. 1t hurt the landed aris-
tocracy to have to brush elbows with
the man from the mill, but they
stayed.
But market developed not only for
the raw materials, but more particu-
larry for the foods needed by those
who were working in the factories.
Products that had been raised only
for family use became large revenue
producers for the farm. A dozen farm
industries sprang up where there had
been none before. ...
The south took on so much of a
change that the conditions became
known as the new south.
These things will be as emphatically
true in the northwest as they were in
the south.
To counterfeit these there must be
manufactures.
1t would be far better if these were
concentrated in the larger cities, but
if that is not done, the smaller towns
are to be congratulated on getting
after them successfully.
Wahpeton has just started into the
manufacturing of candy, and Rugby is
getting sash and door factory under
way. Building materials are being
manufactured in dozen places in
the state, and new ones will be launch
ed in the spring.
The towns which are getting these
industries are far sighted and will
reap the advantages in time.

Shell. Florence Mills, May Bedding
Louis James.

The sonorous voice, the serene dig
nifty of bearing, the perfect valuation
of effective reading, the clearly de-
fined expression of temperamental
tenderness with the forcefulness of
heroic manliness are the attributes
evidenced by Louis James in his mas
,terly performance of "Virgfnius," a
revival of which he presents here.
Never has there been a character
created that, it is said, has fitted the
actor with such perfect propriety as
the character of 'virginius," to Louis
James, for the impersonation he Of
fers of the Roman Father fairly
breathes the atmosphere of the Forum.
His "Virginius" is personality, not
suggestion.

WOMAN AND IMPURE FOOD.

With all the heroic work done by
Professor Ladd in behalf Of pure food,
and with the large lists of adulter-
ated foods published it is doubtful if
the general public has yet arisen to
the need of clearing the state of
canned death.
1t is doubtful if hundred house
wives took the last published list of
authorizations and cut out of her pur-
chasing list the brands that have been
found to be injurious to health. This
is just what must be done before the
splendid work of the pure food COM
missioner can become effective
One of the strong points found in
the published reports is that much of
the goods found impure is made from
the natural product in an advanced
stage of decomposition.
Two dangers arise from this. One
is the fact that any decomposing body,
whether animal or vegetable, is filled
with poisonous germs the effects of
which are too we'll known to need
repetition. The other is that the pro-
cess of decay is arrested by chemical
presevations which while they may
stop the process of decomposition, can
not convert the germs already in .ex-
istance into palatable foods.
Such preservatives are certainly not
advantageous to health, and the long
list of diseases which have become so
numerous in late years, and all of which
are traceable to the condition of the
stomach, are eloquent witnesses of the
fact that that organ has become a
dumping ground for all sorts of stuff
passing under the name of foods, in
stead of the means of converting
pure, wholesome food into blood and
hone and sinew
It is not expedient in this age to

Of a score Of years ago in the pre-
paration of food stuffs for winter use,

and when the meats and meat pre-

KINGDOM OF HEAVEN.
Rev. Burleson Delivered Sermon From
Matthew 1924 Yesterday.

Matthew 14.24 Yesterday.
Speaking at ST. Pauls church on
Sunday morning, Rev. Mr.. Burleson
took as text st. Matthew 1924. Our
Saviour tried often to tell us what the
Kingdom of Heaven was like. This
shows us how important it is that we
should understand about it. Yet we.
do mot, and many Christians do not
even see that in the words of Christ,
the Kingdom of Heaven, or of God,
and Christ's church are always, one
and the same thing. There are many
are typical. There is the idea of the
church as made up of number of re-
ligious clubs, independent of each
other, and mutually exclusive. This
has a shade of truth, but the church
is more than that. There is the idea
of the church as an unlimited corpora
ton, coming from the time of the
Apostles, organized, sharply limited,
largely exclusive, and unimitable.
People in all Christian bodies hold
this idea. 1t, too, has much truth; but
it, too, Is lacking.
The idea of the church which cor
responds to the pictures which Christ
drew, and to what the church has
been in the world, sees her-for you
cannot call the living church IT.
having life, truth, power, in herself.
She does not depend on her children,
they depend on her. She exists not as
a company of the faithful on earth.
seeking Heaven, but she is the King
dom of Heaven on earth, seeking to
make men faithful. She is the body,
of which Christ is the head, and she
would still be the Kingdom of Heaven
on earth If only one human being We're
faithful to her. She teaches, not the
opinions of her members. but the reve-
lation of God. She is not exclusive,
but inclusive. She calls the sinner to
her, that he may be cleaned of his sin,
and the doubter that he may be cured
Of his doubt. And she can do this. be-
cause her truth. her purity and her
power are not from the world and
from without, but from Heaven and
from within.
1t is necessary to know the church
as she is. You may neglect society
or club, but not your spiritual mother.
AS she is your mother you owe her
support. honor. love. You cannot
shirk this duty, nor can you fulfill 1t
with anything but yourself. Your
mother does not want your money, she
wants you. II, you thus know the
church. you will learn devotion to her.
Charity for your fellow Christians.
sympathy for your fellow sinners.
You will learn to do as she does, to
take them into your love and under
your helpfulness, that they may learn
to believe. and, believing, to go and
sin no more.
