The woman left the hotel at 10 o'clock yesteday morning saying she was going to visit her sister on Caroline street. and promising to re- turn at 12 o'clock. The noon hour passed and nurse and baby were absent. By 1 o'clock the parents grew uneasy, and Mir. Foshee Immediately began an investigation. On inquiry he found that the woman had never visited her sister.
 The parents were distracted. and Mr. Foshee went to the police station where he laid the facts before the chief and offered any reward for the return of his baby girl
 Day Sergeant Oscar McDade was about to execute a notice for the pa trolmen, when Chief Taylor asked the anxious parent how long it had been since he was at the hotel MT. Foshee replied he had left the Windsor fifteen minutes previously. The chief sug- gested the baby and nurse might have put in their appearance in the brief lapse of time.
 Hello" said Sergeant McDade over the phone, "is this the Windsor Ho- tel?''
 "Yes," the clrk replied.
 "9as the nurse come in with MT Foshee's baby?"
 .sThey reached here about ten min. utes ago." said the clerk.
 The relieved father made a nasty trip to the hotel where he nestled his pretty baby in his arms.

BIRD CALLS.

Most of our song birds have three
notes expressive of love. alarm and
fellowship, says John Burroughs in
Country Life in America. The latter
call seems to keep them in touch with
one another. 1 might perhaps add to
this list the scream Of distress which
most birds utter when caught by cat
or hswk-the voice of uncontrolled
terror and pain which is nearly the
same in all species, dissonant and
piercing. The other notes and calls are
characteristic, but this last is the sim
pie speech of common terrified nature.
Keep the nerves strong with golden
grain belt beer anu you will not be
easily frightened. Serve it regularly
with your meals and you will notice
a gain in strength and vigor. Order
of your nearest dealer or be supplied

have been several outsiders here, who

looking for locations for cuttingRand
polishing plants in this city.
1t isa we'll known fact that the north
eastern portion OF Morrison county con-
tains deposits of granite that cannot be
excelled, but which are not developed
because OF poor transportation facilities.
1t is possible that one or more firms may
be induced to put in cutting and polsih-
ing plants if satisfactory arrangements
can be made for quarrying.

over the ground with view to locating
