uGf.
She was married to Thomas De Jean
at Girard, Pennsylvania, August ID,
1890. They soon went to Maumee City,
Ohio, where they resided until 1910.
That year they came west to Wauke-
sha county, this state, first settling in
New Berlin and later in Genesee. Mr..
De Jean with others plotted the village
of Genesee; he also donated the beauti-
full site for the cemetery there. In
1867 they came to Vernon county and
settled on land part of which is now
the village of La Fargo. Her husband
died February s, 1877. She was the
mother of ten children, all of whom are
now dead. Since the death of her hus-
band she has been cared for and lives
with her adopted son, Arson w. Joyce
De Jean, who with his good wife are
doing their best TO tenderly care for
her. Mother De Jean has eleven living
grandchildren and fourteen great grand
children, the one t,great-grand-
child being dead. She is a member of
the Methodist church at La. Fargo.
1t is long look backward, this 100
year lapse of time. From almost moth
ing to pre-eminence among nations has
our country advanced--and she has seen
it all; remembers il all. il is not too
much to say that these long years have
been fruitful ones, wherein she has
sown the seeds Of loving deeds, now to
reap abundantly of the respect and es-
TEEN of her community. AS her life
has grown into the sunset glow, the
tenderest of care and affection has sur
rounded her, and will continue to as long
as she fingers in our midst. The re-
ward that the world holds out for such
life is rest in its declination, peace in
its passing and JOY in it's awakening
beyond the dark flow of the river.

Annually.

Madison.-The annual junior prom
of the University of Wisconsin has
again called attention of those opposed
to such an expensive function to the
great expenditure necessary by the
students. A few years ago the fac
ulty social committee forced the man
ayers of the ball to cut the price of
admission to So, but as it was found
the tickets were the smallest item of
expenditure the price was allowed to
be placed back at So.

Here is the average expense to each
student.
Ticket, So; carriages, So; theater
So; driving, So; souvenirs, S.; house
party, $40; incidentals, 81. Total, $50.
The young women who attend usu-
ally spend as much on dresses as the
young men on entertaining. For the
men not fortunate enough to have a
full dress outfit the expense naturally
will be pretty high. About $4,000 will
be spent on the prom itself, and $15,-
000 on house parties and other enter
tainments.

How often do you eat this food?

A short time ago there appeared in
the columns of one of the prominent
magazines an article on building brain
and muscle by the proper selection of
the foods you eat.
A good many people we're surprised
to find oatmeal placed at the top of the
list of foods recommended; but if the
article had appeared in an English or
Scotch paper every reader would have
expected to see first place given to
good oatmeal.
AS a matter of fact Great Britain
and Europe come to US for tremendous
quantities of Quaker Oats because it
represents to them perfect food, being
the richest in flavor and best in clean
illness and purity, Of ali oatmeals.
Americans should eat more Quaker
Oats; the results would soon show
themselves in improved conditions of
health and strength. SIS

COMMISSION PLAN UNPOPULAR.

Washburn. = The Washburn Com
mercial club by resolution has con-
demned the commission form of gov
eminent, under the Wisconsin law as
il would apply to this city. Last week
petitions were started asking that the
question of changing to the commits
sion system be submitted to a vote
of the people. The petitions were
generally signed and were filed with
the city clerk.
Being a new one, very few of the
signers were familiar with the law as
j would apply in the case of this city.
After they had learned what would be
the effect many were anxious to have
their names withdrawn, and counter
petitions were started in every ward
in the city. The first petitions were
thereupon withdrawn and the vote on
it will not be taken.
Under this system about 80 per cent
of the money TO be expended for city
work would be paid to the three Off
Gals.

JUDGE CRIES OF PERJURY.
La Crosse Automobile Damage Suit
Halted by Courts Investigation.

La Crosse.-A sensation was sprung
in the circuit court at the conclusion
of suit by Seibert Saarheim against
DR.. William Colleran, dentist, for dam
ages for alleged injuries received when
run down by the latter's automobile,
when Judge E. G. Higbee, presiding,
announced:
Perjury has been openly committed
in this case
AS District Attorney James Thomp-
son represented the defendant, the
court appointed Attorney William F.
Wolfe special prosecutor and ordered
full investigation that punishment
may be inflicted.
The sensation is made more acute
owing to the fact that nearly all of the
witnesses who testified are prominent
La Crosse people. Hints of perjury
have been heard in other cases recent
ly and the court announced his inten.
ton to set an example.
