MISSING THE CHILDREN.

travelling man was stranded over Sunday in small town in the west where there was a street fair in prog ress. He walked about and could find nothing to do until be came upon a place where various prizes were of fered for knocking over rag dolls by throwing baseballs at thcm-threc shots for nickel
 He threw three balls and hit noth- ing. He tried three more, and hit nothing. He invested several, more nickels and still had no luck
 Finally he went back to his hotel in disgust and wrote to his wife:
 Dear Wife: You cannot imagine how lonesome I am here. Indeed, I have been missing the children all the rnoon."-Saturday Evening Post

THIN FOLKS MADE FAT.
The Way Samose Works Its Wonders
Guaranteed BY Paul G.
Schulz G. Sons.

Physicians and chemists for years
have studied the problem of making
flesh forming food, but il Is only
within the last few months that a
bright man discovered the prescript
ion that taken with the daily meals
gave a positive increase in flesh. In
fact it was so certain in its action
that a guarantee was attached to
each package stating that if weight
did not increase as a result Of using
it the purchase price would be re-
funded.
This preparation is now put up in
convenient form for use under the
name of Samose.
Taken with each meal it enables
the food you eat 10 assimilate with
the system and that in connection
with its own flesh forming and It's
sue building foods gives healthy
flesh,
Paul G. Schulz & Sons have secured
the agency in this city for Samose,
and as the percentage of satisfactory
results from the use of this perscrip-
ton is so nearly one hundred per
cent they feel there is no risk in
offering to refund the money If Sa-
NOSE does not do all that Is claimed
for ii.

Walsh COUNTY FIEND
PLACED UNDER ARREST

Grafton, N. D., Jan. 8.-(Special)
Revolving in the extreme is the
story of Frank Mike of Perth town
ship, this county, who is being held
on the charge of numbering his wife
and infant son on Christmas day.
Mike is charged with the crime as a
result of the finding of the coroner's
jury in the case.
The morning of Dec. q, Frank
Mike came to the home Of John Va.
sleek, in Perth township, and told
hi mthat his wife and baby boy were
dead at his home. Coroner Alien.
dorf went to the scene; performed a
post mortem on the bodies and tes-
titled that the woman and child
came to their death from strangula-
ton, pressure being from without.
States Attorney De Puy and Sheriff
Arnot were present at the inquest,
following which Frank Mike was ar.
rested and brought to the county
Jail.
The evidence in the case is cir
cumstantial, but the story of the de-
PENDANT is doubted He states that
the family ate Christmas dinner at
the usual hour, and that about 9 in
the evening the baby, 3 years old,
became i'll. The mother carried the
child for while, but being in del
icate condition was obliged to turn
him over to the father. The latter
walked with the baby until nearly
II o'clock, and then laid it on the
bed. Shortly afterward, he says, the
little one died.
The parents then went to bed and
the father slept all night. In the
morning he claims he found his wife
was dead. He remained at home all
of Sunday; ate his regular meals and
at night retired and slept in the same
bed on which lay the dead bodies
of his wife and child. Monday
morning, after eating his breakfast
he went to the home of John Vasic-
elk and told his story.
