The many friends of Mr.. Henry
Durand in this city will learn with
pleasure that he has embarked in the
general merchandise business at Ste-

the fire stock of the Hanson store and
it is said that business has been
prosperous with the new firm from
the start.
Another carload of potatoes was
marketed by the Argyle Mercantile
Co, which demonstrates that Argyle is
fast becoming the principal shipping
point in Marshall County. The best
way to stimulate a market is for the
producer to endeavor to raise the best
Of everything that is marketable and
potatoes should be no exception. It
is no more trouble to raise standard
potatoes than it is to raise "scrubs''
and farmers should see to it this year
that they plant nothing but the best
varieties.
G.. o. Lien, of Foldahl, has sold his
farm and advertises his farm imple-
ments, cattle and other stuff for SALE
Mr.. and Mrs. Lien have spent twenty
five years in this county. They have
been prosperous, but having no chill
dren, they have decided to spend
their remaining years in the old coun-
try, Norway, where with their earn
ings, they will live like king and
queen of all they survey. We do not
like to see the old folks leave us,
but theirs is a matter of choice and
we wish them long years of happiness
in their native country.

TOUGH JOURNEY
FOR PATHF|NDERS
0lAY AND MUD KEEP SCOUTS
BUSY ON WISCONSIN ROADS.
Reach Resdsbnrg After Lively and
Thrilling Times - viii Reach
Minneapolis Within
Few Days.

ReedsburE, Wis.,, April 20-The
9ndden pathtinding car reached Reeds
burg at $3.50 last evening after one Of
The toughest journeys ever experienced
by pathfinder, according to dad"
Lewis, the veteran who is in COM
mand of the party. The first half of
the Journey from Sank City to Barar
boo, II miles, was made under compar.
at1vely favorable conditions, the roads
having dried out nicely. After lunch
at Baraboo the next stop was Able
man, miles away, and this part Of
the days run was mostly over sand
and good turnpike. Shortly after
leaving Ableman however the real
troubles Of the scouting party COM
menced.
In going down short grade on low
speed the car became stalled In about
q foot Of Wisconsin clay to which
there appeared to be no bottom, the
rear axle was all but hidden and 1t
was impossible to obtain traction. A
passing farmer however came to the
rescue and soon the party was on its
way only to encounter similar condi-
lions about two miles further on. Here
however assistance could not be OBJ
tanned SO lumber was secured and a
roadway built for nearly 300 yards
through soft. spongy mass Of mud.
This took two and half hours of
the hardest kind Of work and just an
the journey was resumed there oc-
CURED what came near being a SER
ious accident. In attempting to take
a track on the left side of the road
about three feet above the soft mud
the right wheels Of the car slid of
and it all but turned turtle. All Of
the party jumped except Driver Mem
Finger who stuck to his post, the car
clinging ON the edge of the embank-
ment. Blocks and tackle were prompt
~ put into position holding the car
in its place and after half an hours
work 1t was once more righted and on
its way.
Four or five other mud holes were
encountered, each of which required
manful pulling and pushing to bring
the car onto the hard ground Within
one mile Of Reedsburg, Just as dusk
was falling, the car stuck fast again.
Help was summoned from town and 1t
was brought into town. This severe
days work was terrible strain on
the motor and the working parts Of
the car but with a few minor repairs
will be ready to start early Tuesday
morning on the run to La Crosse.
In present condition the pathfinding
party will not reach La Crosse until
Thursday evening.

A reception was given by Mr.. ana
Mrs. Matthias Seielstad to the young
people of this vicinity Saturday eve"
ming last in honor Of their recent
marriage, which took place on the
10th inst. The bride was formerly
Miss Selma Swan. The host ana
hostess in their genial and good
natured way served their guests with
many delicacies. They had also ar
ranged for the social entertainment,
including music and singing. Several
instruments were played. Everybody
had an enjoyable time, which will be,
long remembered.
Mr.. Seielstad is our good-humored
and accommodating postmaster ana
storekeeper. For some time after he
started in business here for himself,
about year ago, he tried to batch 1t,
but became disguised with that kind

Seielstad's care,) all this made him
very busy, and unable to prepare his
meals which became irregular. AS an
Illustration Mr.. Seielstad told his
guests that once, when trying to make
his breakfast. he sarted to prepare
some oatmeal. then he had to go in
to the store to wait on customers.
When he retured the water was boiled
down. He poured on some more
water and refreshed the fire and went
into the store again. Returning to the
kitchen again the oatmeal was again
boiled down. He poured on more
water, but thought he would make the
fire less strong this time, so it would
not boil down so fast, and went into
the store again. When he retired the
third time the fire was out. Thus he
had to endure many hardships, and
at last he made up his mind not to go
it single any longer.
The best wishes for their happiness
and good luck is extended Mr.. and
Mrs. Seielstad by their many friends.
