Fish-SIcIn Disease.

IchthyOsis-from the Greek word 70.
fish-is the scientific name for a pecul-
lar disease. or rather deformity Of .Ae
skin characterized by an overgrowth
of a horny, scaly layer and an abnor-
NAL dryness. 1t usually exists from
birth. although few cases of acquired
fish-skin disease have been observed.
Its cause is unknown. 1t often affects
several members Of the same family
and in many cases is evidently hered-
'tary.
Although existing from birth, 1t may
not be very ma rked in the infant, but
may be little more than roughness
and unusual scaliness and dryness OF
the skin. 1t increases gradually, be-
coming very apparent by the third or
fourth year, for six or eight years per
haps. and then its progress stops and it
remains practically unchanged for life,
although a slight improvement is some
times noticed as the child approaches
manhood or wOmanhOOd.
1t varies with the seasons. being bet
ter in the summer-and better the hot
ter and mOister the air is-and worse
again in winter. The skin is also liable
TO Inflammation in cold weather and
chaps easily. giving rise TO painful
cracks over the knuckles and at the tips
OF the fingers. The nails are rough and
often break and split. and the hair IL
also dry and frayed at the ends.

from the lower and more humble
ranks of life, but he made his mark.
He was known for the genialtiy of
his greeting. He was equally at home
with the rich and the poor, in the
lowly home and in Minnesota's mar
BILE capitol building. His social per-
sonality was something wonderful
and made largely for his success in
lite. John A. Johnson was a Chris
tian gentleman, man of the high
est integrity. These faculties stood
him in good stead in his public life.
He had a large, warm heart; he low
ed everybody and everybody loved
him. He was patient, as was evil
denced by his conduct during the
last week of his life when he bore
uncomplainingl the severe pain on
his death bed. He was a great char
acter and the state and the nation
is poorer by his death.
Dr. Du Bois was close to Cover
nor Johnson, and the two We're warm
personal and political friends. The
doctor met the governor few days
before the latter went to the Roches-
ter hospital and at that time had a
long confidential conversation with
him. The governor then knew he
would have to undergo an operation,
but he was cheerful and expected to
come through all right.
John A. Johnson was not only
governor, but he was my friend,'
said the doctor feelingly ill opening
his remarks. The governors best
acquaintances, said the speaker, saw
and rejoiced in the dead executives
growth of character, and believed he
would, if called to the presidency,
be able to meet every requirement.
johnson accomplished what he did by
close attention to the details of his
duties. He was not really aware of
his latent abilities, but kept right
on at his work, performing faithfully
the daily round of duties. He was
dear to the heart of the American
people, in fact, he was one of them.
When an obscure country editor, he
was called to the governorship, he
rose to meet the occasion and to
the highest responsibilities. The
speaker said that within the past
few weeks, two men in the public
eye had passed away, Edward H. Har-
riman and John A. Johnson. The
one stood for the acquisition of wealth
the other for the careful and con-
scientious performance Of duty, and
the serving of the public. We need
men like Johnson. We need the
classes from which he sprang. A
man like John A. Johnson cannot
come from Wall street or from the
large cities; he must come from the
common people, those sturdy sons.

HITS AND MRS

All summer we have been running
a gasoline launch as though it was a
grind stone back of fathers smoke
house, going up the lake when we got
ready and coming home again about
the same way. But last Friday we
met defeat and stood so still that
hitching post could have walked by
us. To start gasoline launch, seat
yourself in front of the engine and
converse with it say for five minutes;
this is to get its attention and good
will, for the good will of gasoline
engine is not to be sneezed at more
than twice. Speak in low tone of
voice and use as many words of one
syllable as possible and keep up con-
nection. Then give it a little gaso-
line on the side. A good many people
get started by taking something on
the side, inside preferred. In this
particular the business end of a
lanuch resembles a good many more
men than we know and they will CON-
tinue resembling each other until
after next election and from then on.
Then throw on the switch. Some
people spare the switch and someone
gets a contract to build reform
school which is furnished with iron
bedsteads and rules of the same ma
terial. After applying the sting grasp
the wheel firmly but kindly and
throw it to the right. Do this as long
as possible without betraying your
temper. If it doesn't start within
half hour remember that you haven't
turned on the gasoline. If you have
a good memory you will think of this
before Offering the boat for sale or
trade.
The boat Will then start. There
are exceptions, however to this rule,
we find on another page. After it is
once started, although it can be start
ed twice if it stops, turn on the cylin-
der oil to give the machinery an easy
and graceful motion. See that the
pump is throwing the lake up
through the engine to keep it cool
and collective. If a black bass weigh
over four pounds gets pumped into
either the front or back cylinder don't
tell anyone about it or they will put
you in class that is working over
time trying to get someone to believe
them.
Last Friday l went up Sauk Lake
with two gentlemen, whose names I
will not repeat at this time-not but
what their names would look we'll in
print, but we can not spare the space.

After shooting a few ducks and

Sauk Lake is falling quite rapidly
these beautiful fall days. A man,
who lives on the north shore, tells us
that he had to carry two pals of
water almost mile last Friday and
empty it into the lake before he could
successfully water his horse.

gine spit couple of times and de-
parted from this life without leaving
a last will and testament or arrang-
ing for the care of the children. The
matter was treated mechanically for
half an hour, when we realized that
we were there because, etc. We will
omit the last two verses. The reader
may now retire into another room for
five minutes so that the expressions
that then fell from my companions
may not jar upon a refined nature.
Not being able to take the sun, we
took the moon or as much of it as we
could carry without a stove litter,
and found that we were six miles
from Sauk Centre. This being the
case pair of as good hardwood oars
as were ever hid under seat were
dragged out and two able bodied sea-
men instructed in their use. The in
structor, who was myself, taking the
rear seat and patiently steered for the
shore which was reached during the
night, the oarsmen having parted
with their strength reluctantly.
A telephone assisted us much in
reaching home, one having been found
enjoying the beautiful evening on the
porch of summer cottage, otherwise
vacant.
While we were waiting for the
launch which was to tow us to town
we wish to Speak of the variety of
rural phone which is grown north of
here where the soil is not adapted to
the early yellow telephone. These
telephones grow much longer and by
moonlight look more like telephone
booth, but it is impossible to get in
side of them, differing somewhat from
the county Jail in this particular. A
small black button or wen grows on
the left hand side of the northern
Stearns county phones. This is not
to hang your hat on or to be treated
lightly. After twisting the handle of
this phone for something over thirty
years, it will be discovered that the
bell will not ring either in the Cen
tral off,ca,cr home phone unless this
button is pushed which makes good
thing out of it.
The man who came after us brought
along a bundle containing two parts
bologna sausage, three parts cheese
and seven parts crackers. He parted
with the bundle and we carried the
remainder. That night the storage
battery occupied apartments at the
electric light plant and the next day
the launch was running as cheerfully
as ever.
