comes that millions of these worms
are attacking the burnt-over timber.
A few days ago a party of Superior,
Wis, men were LOOKING over some
land near Brule and they noticed that
continual cracking sound could be
heard in the burnt-t timber lanos The
sound could be heard on all sides from
fifty TO 200 feet from the trees i'm
which the worms were at work. They
stripped one of the trees and found
hundreds of the worms beneath the
bark. If burnt-over timber il cut inn
mediately after the fire il can be used
for lumber. but If left standing for any
length of time it is worthless. There
is perhaps a greater acreage Of burnt
over timber i'm Northern Wisconsin
than i'm the upper peninsula. Much OF
the timber that was swept by fire in
the summer Of J907 is still standing.

HAS POWERFUL LIGHT.
Twentieth Century Art Studio Has
Very Fine Equipment.

Very Fine Equipment.
The equipment of the Twentieth
Century Art Studio on Fifth street,
is one of the most complete to be
found in the state, and enables the
Troprictors, Mrs. Campbell and f..
Nelson, to do their rapid picture work
in a very satisfactory manner. The
lighting device is unique there being
only one other of the kind i'm the
state. Instead Of using the ordinary
arc light such as Is found i'm most
studios OF this kind, very powerful
and cheaper light is secured by use
Of mercury. Light is diffused through
a hollow glass tube about three feet
long and one inch i'm diameter. on
the ends OF this are attached electrical
apparatus from which wires lead to
tubes containing mercury. The cleo
trcity passes through the mercury be-
fore it reaches the tube, and the ef-
feet is 10 produce an exceptionally
strong light. The arrangement is very
suitable for studio of this kind and
can be handled conveniently.

CALUMET SKI CLUB.
II Reorganization is to Be Perfected
All Interested Will Have to Help.

owing to the small attendance last
Sunday of those interested i'm the re-
organization of the Calumet Ski club,
nothing was done. Another meeting
is to be called shortly. when it is hoped
that there will be a larger number
present.
While there is considerable local
interest taken in ski jumping the work
of reorganizing the club and taking
necessary steps toward erecting n ski
hill is apparently being left i'm the
hands of few. Naturally they take
exception to shoulderng all of the
responsibility and will look for more
support before taking any action.

Most Common Cause Of SUFFERING.

Rheumatism causes more pain and
suffering than any other disease. for the
reason that it is the most common OF all
ills, and it is certainly gratifying to SUI
feiers TO know that Chamberlain's Lini-
ment will afford relief, and make rest
and sleep possible. In many cases the
relief from pain, which is at first tenn
iorary, has become permanent, while in
old people subject to chronic rheuma-
tism, often brought on by dampness or
changes 10 the weather, permanent
cure cannot be expected; the relief from
pain which Ibis Iiniment affords is alone
worth many times its cost. % and 80

IN favor OF the organization, not opposing Other and

how closc the thoughts in the mind of Brother Maple
coincide with own submit that part of the decara-

entertain the thought that these may be final they furnish
an outline of what may and be DONE provided the

humanity to alter, change and modify all forms of religious
beliefs dsbelies the light of knowledge and the force
of human reason shall proclaim that such alteration change
and modification become necessary the welfare and hap

truth should be the constant aim of humanity.
"We believe that all orthodox religious conceptions of the
universe and that the Monstc system of
Philosophy announced by Prof Ernst Iaecke will salts
facorily account for all phenomena and offers the best
known system of Philosophy that could be applied human

by the meeting if it held For the purpose of bringing
the principles of the organization into prominence and pub
he effect there must be system of lectures, Debates
ings and distribution of literature. We would suggest
entirely literature, for it be admitted that
much of the literature being disseminated by the Free
thought Institutions of America center upon
mere Bible doctrine with too little upon the
constructive elements of cause Such a work
will demand things. Persons capable of creating
the kind of literature necessary and the money needed
meet the cost of publication and distribution Happily
have BOTH We have and fully capable of pre-
pairing the literature and have within rank and file
persons of means who would willingly contribute they
convinced that the organization, those its head
business. With these agencies work the propa-
ganda should be made twofold.
First, exponent of the constructive elements
braced in the Monsc philosophy best adapted sub
the highest interests of humanity and the upbuding
of society by teaching the relations of the uni
verse and to others.
Second by processes of education the pre-
sumpons of the church and its advocates, and enable
the mass of liberal thinkers to resist the by
ccred plan of action.
The issue the plan of organization which
sary goes to the of acquiring membership, the
election of such officers may be deemed advisable and
necessary, the payment of membership Dues and the gen.
eral management This is a of business detail
which be determined by the meeting itself The prn-
cpal things be considered in this relation are of
capable and competent officers, a working Board of
Directors and efficient corps of workers in the field TIE
directors should be given authority pass upon and give
approval all who undertake to represent the organization
in fields of labor, maintaining high standard of repre-
sentation.
Merely approve of such plan is not sufficient it
needs active cooperation win. From all parts of the

Leader be in whom the of American Free
thinkers repose implicit confidence, who is capable,
