Il Was Clumsy Machine and Prac-
ticalIy Useless.
Most persons will be surprised to
learn that the typewriting machine is
not, as they imagine, distinctly mod
ern invention. So long ago as 1714 a
patent was taken out in England by
Henry Mill for "a machine for i'm
pressing letters singly and progressive
ly as in writing. whereby all writings
may be engrossed in paper so exact as
not to be distinguished from print
His machine was, however, clumsy
one and practically useless. 1t was
not until over century later QS29l
that anything more in this line was
attempted Then the first American
typewriter, called ''typographer," was
patented by W. A. Burt
In 1923 machine was produced in
France having a separate key lever
for each letter, and between the years
1910 and 1860 Sir Charles MILESTONE
invented several machines which are
now preserved in the South Kensing-
ton museum, London.
In 1873 c. L. Sholes. an American,
after five or six years work, succeed
ed in producing a machine sufficiently
perfect to warrant extensive manu-
facture He interested a firm of gun
manufacturers in 1t. and in 1874 the
first model Of the modern typewriter
was put upon the market-Cincinnati

Eusru Minute Counts. .

A business man from a small south
ern town was visiting New York. A
friend asked him what was the most
impressive thing he had seen so far
the high buildings, the subway, the
ocean liners or what.
''None of Them was the prompt re-
ply. "The thing that impressed me
most was the rush in everything. l
was in an Office one day, and young
woman, evidently new hand. was
opening the mail. There must have
been several hundred letters. She cut
one open, took out the letter and laid
it in its proper basket.
'Here, that will never do" said the
boss. Every time you lay down that
paper cutter and take it up again you
are wasting time Cut them all open
first and then take them out. You will
save at least ten minutes that way
every day."-New York Sun.

AR8UTUS is BLOOMING.
Dainty Northern Flower Makes First
Appearance This Year.

The trailing arbutus is i'm bloom
Like the wind flower Of the Iowa prai-
ries, the arbutus is the first to bloom
in the Northern pine regions. It IS
inconspicuous, and the plant clings
closely to the ground, thriving best
in partly shaded, somewhat gavcIly
soil. The tulips and crocus bulbs that
were planted last fall, to produce early
flowers, arc two or three weeks be-
hind the arbutus, which will have
bloomed and gone, before the garden
flowers are budded. There arc many
places in the vicinity where arbutus
Is found While arbutus parties often
go considerable distances in search Of
the flowers, = little search will dis
cover plenty of them almost any
place where natural timber remains.

MORTAL SIN CALLED
MANS GREATEST EVIL
Father Benedict Makes Point in His
Sermon at Sacred Heart
Mission.

At the mission at Sacred Heart
church Father Benedict preached a
powerful sermon last evening on the
Mortal Sin, Greatest Evil to Man -
The points which he emphasized in
his address were:
l. How little men think of 1t. They
will live in it for years. They will
lie down to sleep with the serpent of
mortal sin coiled about them and
sleeping in their bosom.
2. Injury mortal sin does to the
soul. = It makes man the child of
rath. 1t is the greatest manifestation
of ingratitude to God after He has
been so good.
8. Gods punishment of sin. How
He punished it in the past by Great
ing the hell; by sending the deluge
and destroying Sodom and Gomor-
rah. The passion and death of
Christ tells us how God will punish
the mortal sinner.
The whole congregation last even
ing Joined in the singing under the
direction of Father Benedict, who is
an accomplished organist and mu-
stefan. Father Raymond will come
tomorrow from st. Paul, Kas., and
will assist in the services during the
of the week The mission
is for Catholics and non-CathoIics
alike.

and o'clock in the evening. Wilmer
ton said he shot at Looney to defend
himself, but he didn't know whether
or not he wounded Looney.
The defense again offered the news
papers and a copy of an anonymous
letter that Wilmerton claimed that his
wife received. The court then ruled
on the objection to the introduction
of the Wahlund testimony, and sus-
tanned the objection of the state.
Looney was recalled to the stand
and asked the question if he ever
threatened Wilmerton or ever told
Wilmerton he was a good shot. He
answered NO" He was asked if it
was not a common expression of his
to say, Il will get you" He answered
NO"
Thereupon the state rested its case
in rebuttal, and the arguments to the
jury were commenced H. NJ. Schriver,
assistant states attorney, opened for
the prosecution.
