FLAMBEAU

Special correspondence to the News Budget
d. Cameron, treasurer of the town
of Washington, was up to the county
seat last Saturday making settlement
with the county treasurer.
A few days ago E. A. Geary of Big
Bend was on his way home from Bruce.
He drives a stallion. When he came
to the crossing of the Chippewa river
he wished to go to the postoffice about
80 rods farther down the river, SO he
permitted the horse to go alone across
and down on the other side, then he in
tended to cross and head the horse and
go on home. When the horse had
crossed and gone a short distance
down the other side he came to lady
who had two horses; she was riding
one and leading one The stallion
thought he would visit these other
horses, so the lady used the persuader
in order to move on out of the way.
All went up the road at pretty fair
pace until finally the stallion got hung
up with his big bob sleighs against a
stump, and after that the lady had no
trouble in coming under the wire ahead
and thereby being entitled to first
money. But for some reason some of
the neighbors say she was little ner-
vous.
A stranger broke into the residence
of Charles Blair a week ago last
Monday and stole suit of clothes and
a suit of underware and a good pair of
shoes and knife etc. to the tune of
$35. He broke the window and made
his entrance through the same.
Charley Vasseur was up to Lady
smith last Saturday.
Harry A. Davis went to Ladysmith
last Saturday with D. Cameron.

Long ago the Scotch learned this.

The sturdy old Scotchman must be
amused at the recent "discoveries" that
oatmeal is the best food in the world.
Our scientific men have been making
experiments which prove that Ameri-
cans eat too much fat and grease and
not enough cereals,
The Scotchmen say: Look at our
nation as proof. The sturdiest nation
OH earth" Still we have one good point
to make. We make better oatmeal than
the Scotch,
They buy Quaker Oats and consider
it the leader of all oatmeals to be had
anywhere. Quaker Oats is sold in fam
lily size packages at 25c or at Soc for
the package containing piece of fine
china. The regular size package sells
at 10c. Follow the example OF the
Scotch; eat a Quaker Oats breakfast
every day.
All grocsss sell Quaker Oats.
