The state board of health has passed
a resolution to the effect that smallpox
is not to be quarantined in Minnesota
after Jan, l. 1908. Minnesota is the
first state to have this radical measure
adopted, which is based on the fact
that vaccination is an absolute protec-
ton against the disease. When some
body comes down with it all who are
in the house or likely to go there are
supposed to be vaccine ted. Health
officers are being notified as to the new
order.

The spirit Of the recent mass
meeting which adopted resolu
tions on the telephone question
was decidedly in favor of requir
ing the city exchange to make
connections with all the lines en-
tering the city. This, of course
includes the Tri-State lines,
which carry with them access tc
some Of the largest and most i'm
portant exchanges of the North
west as well as those of some OF
our neighboring villages. Such
an addition would be an accomo.
dation to the public and bring
the benefits Of competition to al
who use phones in the city.

bulletin NO. "a
Issued by the Minnesota State Dair,
and Food Commission at St.
Paul, Feb. IL.

Confusion apparently prevails quite
extensively in regard to the application
of the National Pure Food Law and the
effect it's enforcement will have upon
the enforcement of the existing state
laws.
The National Law will effect only COM
MERGE in foods and drugs of an inter-
state nature. Goods produced and sold
within the state will not be under the
supervision of the federal authorities,
and this class of goods make up the
larger portion of foodstutfs consumed
in the state.
Further than this it is the expressed
purpose of the federal officials to collab-
crate with the state officials in the work
and to only reach such offenders as the
state officials cannot reach.
In the absence of state law the
manufacturer could carry on fraudu-
lent business within the state and if he
chose to extend his activities to another
state all that would be necessary would
be for him to establish branch house
in that state and mix his goods after
they had crossed the state line. For
instance, if a maple syrup distributor
in Chicago wished to dispose of adul-
terated maple syrup in Minnesota he
could ship in original packages, pure
maple syrup and pure cane syrup into
Minnesota, thus complying with thief
eral law, and then mix the two articles
and sell the mixture in the state as
absolutely pure maple syrup.
Further than this the enforcement OF
the federal law will open upnew avenues
for the enforcement of the state law
owing to the fact that extensive invest
igations will be carried on by thefederal
authorities and both federal and state
departments will enjoy the benefits OF
such Investigations. 1t would be dis

That's what the people voted for.
To intimate that they voted that
way with any other end in view

Discusses Telephone Question.

SP1CER, Minn., March Is, 1907,
Editor Willmar Tribune:
Seeing that the telephone question
soon will come up for consideration
in Willmar, will beg to say that the
wish of the country telephone compa-
MES is to see the telephone exchange
in Willmar controlled by it's own peo-
pie. The village or city nowadays
that does not deal quite literally with
the farmers rural lines is not in it..
Some wide-awake villages understand
this and give every country telephone
line that runs into their town free con-
nection, besides many other privileges.
AS for Willmar, we can say from
our own experience that so far we have
not received an inch of ground without
fighting for it, and were threatened
not to get connection at all if we did
not come up to their terms, which in
many instances have been unreason-
able. We call their terms unreason-
able when shareholders are forbidden
to talk free of charge over their own
lines because the company has lines
running in the same direction.
1t has been question more than
once whether we should connect on
their terms or ask the council for a
franchise to put in some phones in
their city. But knowing that their
present franchise will soon expire, we
have signed a contract, figuring til at
Willmar will see to it that when the
present franchise has expired the peo-
pie of Willmar will throw off the Bell
monopoly yoke from their neck and
deal with the country lines as they see
fit, and give free talk to the farmers.
Much more could be said in this
line, but we will not now. The bust
ness men of Willmar know we'll enough
what it means to have a good, satis-
factory and mutual good feeling with
the farmers. F. O. S,

The amount still unearned on
the liquor licenses of the city was
not shown on the statement as a
liability, but such it proved to be-.
With the ample taxes of last year
and the liqu or revenue on top, the
late six months regime leaves a
deficit as a legacy to their success
sors. It was none too soon that
they were put out of business.

The Pathetic Career of John Stow.
the English Antiquary.
John Stow. the celebrated English
antiquary, was a remarkable man. He
was born Of poor parents about 1925
and brought up to the tailor's trade
For forty years his life was passed
among needles and thread. but in the
few leisure hours which his trade al
lowed him he had always been fond
reader of legends. chronicles, histories
and all that told Of the times that
were past. BY such reading he grew
to be so attached to old memoirs that
when about forty years Of age he
threw down his needle. devoted him
self to collecting them and followed
his new profession with the faith and
enthusiasm Of an apostle. Short or
means. he made long journeys afoot
to hunt over and ransack colleges and
monasteries, and, no matter how worn
and torn might be the rags Of old pa
pers which he found, he kept all. re-
viewing, connecting. copying. compar-
ing, annotating, with truly wonderful
ability and good sense. Arrived at
fourscore years and no longer capable
Of earning livelihood, he applied to
the king. and James L., consenting to
his petition, granted to the man who
had saved treasures Of memoirs for
English history the favor Of wearing a
beggar's garb and asking aims at
church doors. In this AFFECT state,
forgotten and despised. he died two
years later.

LOVE CHARMS.
Some of the Queer superstitiOns That
Live In Sicily.

Some of the Queer SuperstitiOns That
Live In Sicily.
The love charms Of Sicily are many
and curious. One. very popular and
considered very powerful, Is to put
into an eggshell a few drops of the
blood Of the longing lover. The shell
is exposed to the sun for three days
and to the dew for three nights. 1t is
then placed on hot ashes until calcined.
when the whole is reduced to u fine
powder and administered secretly in
d cup of coffee or glass of wine to
the object of affection.
Another charm is for the witch to
undress at midnight and tie her clothes
up In a bundle which she places on
her head. Then. kneeling in the CEN
ter of her room, she pronounces an in
cantation at the end of which she
shakes her head If the bundle falls
in front Of her, it is good sign; should
1t fall behind her. the charm will not
avail.
Yet another is worked in the follow
ing manner: Pieces Of green. red and
white ribbon are purchased in three
different shops. the name OF the per-
sons to be charmed being repeated
mentally each time. The shopkeeper
must be paid with the left hand. the
ribbon being received in the right.
When all the pieces are bought they
are taken to a witch, who sets out to
find the person to be charmed. On
finding him or her the witch mutters
to herself. with these ribbons | bind
you to such a one" Then she returns
the ribbons to the purchaser. who ties
them beneath his or her left knee
and wears them at church.-Macmil-

In the honeysuckle vine,

PENNSY TRAINS
NOW GOING DRY

There is no ice water now on the
local trains Of the Pennsylvania Rail-
road According to officers of the
company this is no hardship. because
few passengers refreshed themselves
with the water at this time of the year.
Charles NJ. Sheaner, superintendent OF
passenger transportation, said yester-
day:
I'VE began cutting the supply Of ice
water on local trains three months ago,
as we always do when summer is over.
1t is true we have abolished the water
on more trains than we used 10. but
we did it for sanitary and not economic
reasons. Statistics compiled by our
trainmen showed that only an average
Of ten persons a day patronized the
ice coolers on all the local trains The
trainmen often neglected TO clean the
coolers and empty them before putting
i'm fresh ice. and much Of the time
the water was stale. This work was
supposed to be done by men who have
other regular duties. so no one was
thrown out of work.
