considerable adjacent territory are
eagerly awaiting the day when will
be presented the largest chorus of
singers ever gotten together in the
Northwest. Reduced rates will be
granted on all the roads leading to
this city and large crowds are ex.

The program for the festival has
already been outlined. There will be
two afternoon and two evening ap-

probably be given over to symphony
concert by the orchestra while in the
evening of the same day the Messiah
will be rendered by the Oratorio. The
following afternoon will be given over
to the Soloists recital. The last ap-
pearance will be Hiawatha's Wedding
Feast. ai1.-
The officers of the Oratorio are now
completing arrangements for the Sc
curing of several renowned soloists
and when everything is in readiness
Grand Forks will undoubtedly be
treated to the most magnificent Musi-
cal carousal of its history.

fected. The soldiers. stripped from
head to foot, had each to take hot
bath, and on emerging from 1t were
clothed in fresh kimono, while their
other clothes were subjected to Wig
orous disinfection in vaporizing ov-
ems. The weapons were also disin-
fected by subjecting them to fumes;
even the jewelry and cigarette cases
and watches all passed through ths
disinfecting chambers, while for the
paper money which had been the cur
rency OF the war, new notes and coins
were given in exchange. These hy-

What A Feather bed Does.

Few people, even physicians
themselves. seem to know the prin-
cipal reason why medical science con-
demns the use OF feather beds In
winter as well as In summer said
a New York physician recently.
1T is because feather beds ara
highly hygroscopic--a rather for
midable word, but one meaning sim
ply that feathers readily absorb and
condense moisture. The body Is con-
stantly throwing off waste matter
through the skin and the lungs. The
feathers in the bed will absorb this
waste matter as readily as 1t will
simple atmospheric moisture. The
feathers retain the waste matter dur
ing the day when the bed is cold.
even when 1t is aired. unless also
warmed by sunshine during tho time
1t Is exposed to the air.
AT night when the body OF tho
sleeper warns the bed the feathers
renew their hygroscopic action and
throw off the waste matter absorbed
the night before. The susceptible
body OF the sleeper Is soon surround.
ed by dense and highly poisonous
atmosphere, the accumulatiye effect
of which cannot help but be very
injurious. IN. Y. Times.

To Paper n Painted Wall.

Occasionally a housekeeper wants
to paper a room that has previously
had the walls painted. This Is not
easily done. nor one that is by any
means cheap. If men must be hired
by the day or hour to do it. Any en-
terprising woman who is willing to
take the time and trouble can get the
paint off for herself. Mix in bucket
of hot water enough potash to make
strong solution, and scrub the walls
with stiff brush dipped in it. Wash
off in cold water and finish with dry
flannel If the paint is very old it
should be covered with wash of
three parts quickstone lime slaked in
water to which has been added one
part OF potash. Allow this coating
to remain on over night and the paint
may be easily scraped off.-New York
