Forreston-Five per cent decrease
in acreage account high water in
lowlands; 10 per cent better condi-

irregular; great many fields have
been planted over two or three
times in spots; web worms damaged
scme fields, but no complaint of

but majority fields are now clean.
Italy-The prospects for a good
crop is not very flattering in this Sec

creased the acreage until it is no

farmers have planted two or three
times and have no stand yet and are
now planting the land in June corn !;
crop is backward and it's condition
at present lacks about 20 per cent

year; farmers are utilizing the good
weather now and the crop will be
free from weeds in few days; web
worms have done some damage, but
they are not working much at pres

weather the condition will be much
improved.
Alma-Reduced about per cent ;

THE RIGHT SPIRIT.
Lincoln's Personal Feelings Held in
Allegiance for Public Good.

LincoIn's Personal Feelings Held in
Allegiance for Public Good.
William T. Stead, the noted English
journalist, was talking in New York
about the worlds governments.
There is some truth in the saying"
he concluded, that nations have the
governments they deserve. Good gov
ernment is impossible without unset
fish work, without self-sacrifice on the
part of the citizens.
What governments need are citi-
zens of the Lincoln stamp.
Lincoln, at the commencement of
the awful war, was much abused by
one of his generals, Pennsylvania.
He was even openly insulted by this
man.
I'm his splendid way he put up with
that mistreatment imperturbably. But
when the thing kept on and on, grow
ing more and more fragrant, his friends
demonstrated with him. They told him
he was suffering more than was rea-
sonable and right.
'But Lincoln only smiled his odd
sad, humorous smile.
I'll hold Gen. IS horse for him,
he said, if he will only bring us sue.

Deserving Mayfair.

The motor car is fast upsetting not
only the road traffic of the country
but also the social life of the town.
Certainly there are to-day more houses
and fats to let in Mayfair than we can
ever remember, says Bailey's Maga-
zine, and one of the reasons for this
disquieting state of affairs is that so
many motor people find it better to
live little way outside London and to
run in and out of town as they please
than to take a house for the London

ing PurFNilk surely.
For years Londo.i's ,1i.k supply has
been blamed by medical men and
health officers for a great deal of the
infant mortality
Now the dairy companies are to de-
liver milk at the doors of houses in
paper pals or pitchers, which are
said to be absolutely proof against
germs and water.
The paper pals are being made at
new factory at the of 10000 daily,
but they will require to be turned out
at the rate of some millions daily ii
the demand is to be met.
These milk pals, made from wood
pulp, can, of course be used only once
says What to Eat. But they will be
cheaper than metal pals, pitchers of
glass bottles, for one reason, because
all labor of cleaning and sterilizing
will be saved
The pail is a simple contrivance,
twelve times lighter than the ordinary
milk can, is strongly made and is fin
ished off, after being rendered water
proof, by being sterilized in furnace
heated up to 500 degrees Fahrenheit
Every pail has close fitting fianged
cover which can be quickly adjusted
and when fixed, effectually seals the
milk from any outside influence.

Makes Life Misera bic
Troubles That Keep Half The Sauk
Centre Doctors Busy


Halt of the prescriptions the Sauk
Centre doctors write are for troubles
that result directly from a weakened
stomach. Strengthen the stomach
M ucles and increase the secretion OF
gastric juices with Mi-o-na, ,and you
will find that common aflction-indi-
gestion, with ita headaches, dizziness
depression of spirits, spots before the
eyes, nervousness, sleeplessness and
general debility-has been overcome.
If Mi-o-na did not have an unusual
ly curative effect in stomach disorders,
it could not be sold on the guarantee
given by Hanson & Emerson to re-
fnnd the money unless 1t does all that
is claimed for it. We give an abso-
ute, unqualified guaantee with every
5O-cent box of Mi-o-na that; the money
will be refunded unless the medicine
cures. You certainly can afford to get
Mi-o.na from them on this plan.

Little Katie looked up in terror.

cried to Macgregor, who was white
and angry.
She's no wantin' ye to hurl her,
he said to the bully, who had already
grabbed one of the handles.

The bully vented some language
which need not be repeated, and tried
to jerk the barrow from it's owners

and a desperate struggle occupied
about two minutes, during which Katie
looked at her hero in fear and trem-
bling, and longed for the appearance
of Willie Thomson or another of his
friends.
Suddenly there was nasty cracking
sound, and Macgregor was left with
one leg of his barrow in his hands,

found himself in possession of the re-

The Patch Told the Tale.

New Englander recently had oc-
casion to engage a gardener. One
morning two applicants appeared
one decidedly decent looking man,
and the other of much less prepos-
sessing appearance and manner.
After little hesitation the man of
the house chose the latter applicant.
A friend who was present evinced
surprise at the selection, asking:
HAS that man worked for you be-
fore?"
mo-" replied the other, Sin fact, l
never saw either of them until to-day"
''Then why did you choose the short
erman? The other had much better
face"
"Face!" exclaimed the proprietor of
the place, in disgust. LET me tell you
that when you pick out a gardener,
you want to go by his overalls. If
they're patched on the knees you want
him. If the patch is on the seat of
his trousers, you don't"

Oatmeal and Rats.

DR.. Watson suggests that large
measure of the food value of oatmeal
Is due to its capacity to stimulate the
activity of the thyroid gland. After
feeding number of young rats for
four to eight weeks on diet Of un-
cooked oatmeal and water an autopsy
revealed in each instance considerable
enlargement of the thyroid, together
with evidences of increased glandular
activity.
He approves of its use at breakfast
in the form of porridge and milk. and
advises that the meal shall be com
pleted by a glass of milk and some
bread and butter, and shall not in
clude bacon or any other form of meat
Rats, equally with children, 1t seems,
display this same dietic perversity-

onslaught with the sundered leg upon
the villain, who at first grinned scOrn-
fully, but soon found it necessary to
defend himself. Macgregor caught
him a nice thwack over the knuckles,
causing him to drop the barrow; but a
moment later the valiant one was in
the others clutches and being cruelty
cuffed
Katie could bear no more. With a
cry of childish wrath, she fell upon
the bully from behind, and put in
some really effective work with her
hands and feet. Still, the battle
might have been to the strong had not
Willie Thomson appeared on the
scene. Willie was not muscular, but
he had an idea. Signing to Katie to
keep clear, he suddenly grabbed the
bully's right leg, and brought him to
the ground with Macgregor on top.
The latter shook himself free, and
stood up sorry picture.
The bully rose with a roar, and
made for Willie Thomson who dashed
of, and did not reach his own door a
second too soon. There he had the
good fortune to meet his elder brother,
who administered to the bully a troun-
cling which would have been longer
but for the arrival of a policeman, but
which could not have been stronger
while it lasted.
And, left to themselves, Katie and
Macgregor dissolved in tears. She
was the first to see clearly, and To-!

his bruised, tear-staine6 countenance,
and his gusty sobs of pain and wrath

anxiety to comfort him.

Her words were balm to his sore

shaky, and it was a while ere the tears
ceased.

Katie, at last; and somehow he
bowed and obeyed her.
