How the Air Is Purified.

. Motion, mechanical and molecular,
the great law of the universe, is nat
ural method for the publication of the
atmosphere. Its power as purifier of
the air is shown mechanically in the
flow of rivers and in the ocean cur
rents. Molecularly it serves the same
purpose in the form of heat, light and
electricity. When not in motion air
stagnates as water does and becomes
offensive and bad, because it is easily
impregnated with fine animal and veg
etable dust as we'll as no1ious gases.
Certain physical conditions are always
necessary for the continual movement
of the air. We know that the diurnal
motion of land and sea air brings the
warm days and cool nights as well as
the rain and wind. In the tropical re-
gions as the sun rises the heat Of the
day increases, and the breeze sets in
from the sea to the land. AS the sun
goes down the heat diminishes, and at
sunset the temperatures of sea and
land are equal. At night again the
breeze is from land to sea until morn
ing, when the temperature may be-
come equal and the sea breeze return.

COURTLAND FARMERS LOsE MONEY
Stock in Gold Mine Proves TO be
Worthless.

Il has justscome to light that num-
Der of farmers in the vicinity of Court
land have lost $4,000 or $50, 600
through the discovery that mining
stock which they purchased is value
less says the Mankato Free Press.
The supposed mine was in Idaho.
They purchased the stock of q glib
talking stranger who visited CORTLAND
about a year ago. It is said that q
creamery man, Johnson by name, lost
all his savings S8, 900, and that tele-
praph operator, r. p. English, of New
Ulm, dumped 81, 900 into the scheme.
The latter was the first to discover the
lswindle. One of the conditions under
which he bought his stock was that he
was to be. given position by the com
pany and he was taken west by the
promoter. After a few months his re-
mittances for salary stopped coming
and his chief disappeared.
This is only a fraction Of the amount
of money that was taken out of this
part OF the State by man by the nam.
of Gieske. r. i. English, who is men
toned in the above was operator fol

what money he had into the concern
more because the man who was work
ling it was a relative, than for any
other reason. He was induced to leav,
his work here on the promise of posi-
| ton in the management of the com
pany, and went from here to Salt LAX
City. He is now in Marshall workin,
