FOOD LAW.

apolis.-With the beginning Of
1907 the law putting the dairy and food
commission under civil service will go
into effect. The law will apply to all
inspectors employed by the department.
No one thereafter is to be appointed
to those positions without passing an
examination as to his general qualif1-
cations and special fitness for the po-
sition and satisfying the board as to
his moral, mental and physical fitness.
No inspector is to be removed except
for cause. This will take the depart
ment out of politics, as far as the in
spectors are concerned, although the
commissioner and clerical force still
will be subject to change when a
change is made in the governorship.
The law was passed by the last legis-
lature, but it does not go into effect
until the week after the governor is
inaugurated next January.
The law makes the dairy and food
commissioner, the attorney general and
the dean Of the agricultural college the
examining board.

Wise Ostrich.

The stock illustration Of what fool
will do is the habit which ostriches
have Of sticking the head into the sand,
leaving the body exposed, but the au-
thor of 1.-THE Gold Diggings of Cape
Horn" says that this habit does not
seem foolish to one who studies the
ostrich in its desert home On the con-
trary, it Is natures wise provision for
the safety Of the bird in region where
hiding places are scarce. The male
ostrich matches out the eggs, looks after
the brood, keeps his eye open for men,
beasts and birds, and sounds a loud
snorting, warning call when he sees an
enemy. The brood, when warned
fades out Of sight. Each chick squats
motionless, its head in the sand and it's
body so near in color to that Of the
sand and scant heritage as to deceive
even an experienced hunter It's body
looks like a gray desert bush, and the
gauchos-the cowboys of the pampas-
when searching for young ostriches ex-
anime every bush within many rods of
the spot where a brood disappears. Or
ten what seemed a bush is found to be
In part or wholly young ostrich.
With it's head up the bird would be at
once detected. With it's head in the
sand it often escapes even the keen
eyed fox.

ORE SHIPMENTS.

3 sDuluth--It is now certain that the
ore shipments from the Lake Superior
region for 1906 will be approximately
100000 tons, and with a favorable
month of November, as far as weather
IS concerned, the total may reach S7,-
100000. The total under any reason
able conditions of weather for the
balance of the season is likely to be
over rather than under 100000 tons.
The position Of Minnesota in the iron
ore industry is one of pre-enlinence in
the United States, and is rivaled in the
world only by the German empire. The
Mesaba range is expected to ship about
23,000,000 tons of the 100000 tons to
be shipped this season, and the Yer
million range will come in for close
to 100000 tons, making the total for
Minnesota as near as can be estimated
at present, about 25,000,000 tons, leav-
ing 100000 tons to be shipped from
other states bordering on Lake Su-
perior. Minnesota last season shipped
about two thirds of all the ore for
Warded from Lake Superior, and the
proportion, it is expected, will be about
the same this year. ~

Whistler Tanned n Russian,

When James MacNeill Whistler went
to Venice to make those fourteen IA
nous etchings Of his he became so
intoxicated with it's beauty that he
made seventy pastels first, leaving his
etchings till the last few days. These
pastels made tremendous sensation
All the art world of Venice was car
ried away with enthusiasm excepting
a Russian painter, who declared them
tricks, betting basketful Of cham
payne he could paint six not to be
distinguished from them. Mr. Whistler
amiably gave some Of his paper and
six pastels, which were finally mixed
up with those by the Russian and sub
mitted to jury which had seen none
Of them. Mr.. Whistler's pastels were
unmistakable, and the Russian lost.
A few days later the two met on the
Rialto, and Mr. Whistler laughed
little about the bet The Russian was
furious. you forget, SIR" he said,

Written on Glass.

Miss Harriet Aubers beautiful lines,
"Our Blessed Redeemer, Ere He
Breathed," were written by the au-
thoress on a window pane in her house
ut Hoddesdon. A dealer in curios tried
to purchase this interesting and pc
culiar manuscript from the owner Of
the house after the death Of Miss
Auber in 1862, but he was unsuccess-
full. The pane Of glass was subse-
quently stolen. and it has never since
been found or it's fate discovered.
Centuries ago Theodulph, bishop of
Orleans, while in prison at Metz COM
posed the hymn, call Glory, Laud and
Honor" which he wrote on the win
dow Of his cell. As the usual Palm
Sunday procession passed through the
town the emperor heard sounds Of
singing proceeding from the prison.
He thereupon liberated the bishop,
whose hymn was afterward regularly
used on each succeeding Palm Sunday
as professional, the choir taking up
each quatrain and the public joining

RING IN POTATO.

Little Falls.-A wedding ring lost
over two months ago has just been
found embedded in a large potato.
Early in September, Mrs. John Club
ka, residing southwest of here, while
digging potatoes in the field lost from
her hand a gold band wedding ring. A
few weeks later Mrs. Glubka brought
a load of potatoes to this city and
sold them. A portion of the load was
purchased by Mrs. Carl Bolander, liv-
ing on the West side.
Yesterday, while Mrs. Bolander was
preparing some Of the potatoes for
cooking, she discovered embedded in
a large tuber a gold band ring. She

once notified her that her much priced
ring had been recovered.

TERRIBLE DEATH.

Duluth.-Engineer Frank Gaul, of the
Great Northern, Of st. Paul, met ter
rible death. For five hours he lay be-
meath his wrecked engine, conscious
most of the time, and suffering the
most excruciating agony.
He was still alive when the engine
was lifted from his crushed body, but
died few hours later in a Superior
hospital.
The accident happened during a
binding snow storm. Gaul was driving
light freight and did not see the
warning signals Of an ore train that
was partly on the main line and partly
on siding. His engine collided with
the side of the ore train

A PERFECT HAND.
How Its Appearance Became Familiar

rather interesting.
AS the story goes the possessor Of

talking, held up piece of candy.
The pose of the hand with its per
feet contour and faultless shape at

proposed to photograph it. The re-
suit was a beautiful picture kept in
the family until one day, after read

as to who wrote the Postum and

Many artists have commented upon
it as probably the most perfect hand

temptation to enlist the curiosity OF
the public, by refralning from giving
the name of the owner when the pic

seeking to induce the readers to look
for and read the forthcoming adver-

the interest the public takes in the
personal and family life of large

household words through extensive
and continuous announcements IN
