CONTRACTS CLOSED
FOR SANATORIUM
CONSERVATIVES HOSPITAL WILL
OVERLOOK CAss LAKE.
Institution Is Intended as Beginning Of
Larger Ono in Which Victims Of
White Plague May Find Relief
Legislature to Be Asked for Addi-
tional Funds.

The state board of control today let
the contract for the new state sana-
torium for consumptives at Walker, on
the site overlooking Cass lake.
The contract for the building. was let
to O'Neill & Son Of Faribault for $685.
765; the plumbing to the Allen Black
company, st. Paul, $2,437;. the heating
to J. L. Judge, Minneapolis, $2,220. ,
before next spring. By that time the
legislature will have had an opportuni-
ty to make an appropriation for main
tenance of the building, which it failed
to do at it's last session.
Other Bills to Come.
The board of control now has avail
able for the sanatorium building $59,-
700. There is, however, considerable
more expense connected with the COM
pletion of the building than the con-
tracts let today.
There is yet to be constructed wa
ter and sewer system, and lighting
plant. It is the plan of the board of
control to have these SO constructed
that they will be adequate for much
larger Institution than the one now to
be constructed. The new building will
be erected with this in view, so that the
| first structure may eventually be made
wing of large institution.
b. Question Of Water.
The board of control favors securing
the water supply for the building from
large spring three-quarters of a mile
from the building site. This would givt
fine, pure supply of water. The waite!
mains, however, would have to be lait
over high hill, and there is some quess
tion whether the spring is large enough
to supply the am cunt needed. .Thi
matter, will be referred to an .enginee
for ISOLATION. If the spring is foun<
inadequate, the water will be securet
direct from Cass lake.
The sewer system will be on tn
septic tank plan, With the eventual dis ll
lake.
It is probable that the needs of tn
hospital for consumptives will b
brought to the special attention Of tn
next legislature in the report Of tn
board of control, with recommenda
tion that the institution be properl.

The Story Of Postum Cereal In Words
and Pictures.

The growth of the Postum Cereal
Co. is like a fairy tale, but 1t Is true.
every word of It.
1.-THE Door Unbolted" Is the title OF
a charming little booklet just issued
by the Company which tells. and H.
lustrates, the story Of this remark
able growth. 1t takes the reader from
the little white barn In which the
business was started Jan. 1, 1895,
through the palatial Offices and great
factory buildings Of the white City"
that comprise Postumville. Battle
Creek, Mich.
The little white barn, SO carefully
preserved, is a most interesting build
ing, for 1t represents the humble be-
ginning of one Of the country's great
est manufacturing enterprises Of to-
day, an enterprise that has grown
from this little barn to a whole city
Of factory buildings within but little
more than ten years.
No less interesting Is the quaint Of
ficial home of the Postum Cereal Co.
The general Office building Of Mr.. Post
and his associates is a reproduction Of
the Shakespeare house at Stratford-
on-Avon. and upon the house and its
furnishings has been expended vast
sums of money, until the rooms are
more like the drawing rooms Of the
mansions Of our mulu-milliOnaires
than like offices.
That Mr.. Post has believed thor
oughly In the idea of giving to his
employees attractive and healthful
work rooms is proven not only by the
general Office building OF the Company
and its furnishings, but by his fac.
tories as well, and Of all Of these
things this beautiful little booklet tells
the interesting story. It will be sent

PHOTOGRAPHY AND FINE ART.
Camera Pictures Much More Than Me-
ohanical Reproduction.

Few persons could be found who
would deny the claims of photography
to rank among the fine arts, when
skillully used and properly controlled,
since the photography Of Of to-day is
something more than a mechanical re-
production. The individuality Of the
photographer is being expressed in
his work almost as much as Is that Of
the painter. The painter still has the
advantage, for while he may give us
an impression fuller than that made by
nature upon the eye, the photographer
can deal only with that which Is OBJ
served with such unerring fidelity and
skill by a mechanical eye. Compost
ton is therefore one Of the necessary
principles to the photographer, who
thus supplies the mechanical eye with
a mind, yet he must study lighting at
different hours of the day and varying
weather conditions that he may know
the best effects to be obtained. Many
otherwise successful photographers
need to realize that scientific accuracy
is not necessarily artistic truth, sc
that, while one actualizes, the definite
sharpness may be softened and the ef
feet enhanced.-Home Magazine.
