NO, THANK YOU, Mr.. WORKS

From our esteemed southern Min.
nesota contemporary, The Mankate
Daily Free Press we pluck the fol.
lowing editorial utterance:
Now that Senator S. D. Works
wants to be cOngressman-at-
large from Minnesota, he ex-
pressed regret that he voted
against the reapportionment bill
that was before the last legisla-
ture Does Senator Works ex-
pect that Northern Minnesota is
going to swallow such weak and
insipid "sop." Nit, not, no, Mr..
Works.
The Free Press is correct in its
surmise. Any man who was a mem
Der of the Minnesota legislature at
it's last session and voted against re.
will get brickbats
lemons, jolts and everything else in
Northern Minnesota before he gets
her vote Senator Works is consid-
crate to offer his services to the state
and nation but Northern Minnesota,
or no explanation as tic
why he voted against reapportion-
ment, has only this to say, "No,
thank, you, Mr.. Works."

Here's a Real Tear Squeezer.

The most pitiful case at the Baby
Welfare clinic yesterday afternoon
was that of twin boys, months old.
Their mother is very young, mex
perienced, and since her husband, a
travelling salesman, went away, she
has been boarding and trying to earn
enough to care for herself and chill
dren. Naturally they did not get
proper care, and so were in the hab-
it of crying at night. And, of course,
the other boarders did not like to
have their rest broken. Zone Of them
told the mother that if she gave them
brandy and water and paregoric they
would sleep soundly.
She tried the experiment and it
worked. She has given them two bot
ties of brandy and no one knows how
much paregoric. One of the boys
weighs less now that he did when
born, while the other has managed
to gain two pounds in his five months
of life. And the mother did not rea-
lie that anything was wrong until
a visitor from the Associated Chart
ties told her so.
It will be wonder if the tiniest
twin lives, and still more wonderful

SOMEBODY WILL GO HUNGRY.

Do you know that this year there
will be 100000 bushels of oats
less than there were last year?
That the corn crop will be $780,
100000 bushels shy?
That the wheat yield has shrunk
3O,OOO,OOO bushels?
That potatoes-the product in
which Northern Minnesota shines
lack 100000 bushels of being as
numerous as last year?
That it would take 100000
more tons of hay to get up to the
amount cut in 1910?
That even 1.-The rice crop is off g.
100000 bushels?
And that you are in danger of hav-
ing no cakes for breakfast next win
ter because the buckwheat crop is to
the bad 100000 bushels?
There is just one crop showing an
increase over last years yield and
that is flax which promises to ex-
coed last harvest by approximately
100000 bushels.
But faxseed makes poor bread, and
is worse as substitute for old Dob
bins oats, bossie's hay or the corn
for the pigs.
To the pessimist it would appear
that someone would go hungry this
winter.
All of which should go to make the
! happy farmer of Northern Minnesota
duly thankful for living in a coun.
try where things grow.

if both do not lose their minds; chill
dren who have been drugged in their
babyhood usually grow up stupid and
often idotic, but oftener they do not
grow up.
Neither Of the boys is named. The
mother calls them Baby and
Brother She does not want to name
them until their father returns to
have voice in the decision. The
father is earning $3.50, a month and
sends her some money now and then.
She is earning $25 month.

AWAIT OR BAG.UE
IS LOST At SEA
Feared That French Birdman
Has Suffered Fate of Cecil
Grace.

Nice, June SIT appears more and
ant Bague, the. French avia tor. has
met the fate of Cecil Grace, the Eng
lishman. who was lost in the North
Sea while attempting n flight from
Calais to Dover last December Lieu
tenant Bague, who holds the oversee
flight record, left Nice in his aeroplane
this morning for trip to Corsica. The
distance between the two points Is a
little more than 100 miles and when
nothing was heard from the daring
aviator, torpedoboat destroyers were
sent to seek him.
The destroyer Arbalete returned here
this evening from Corsica and re-
ported that it could find no trace of
BaSue. Other naval vessels are con-
ttnuing the search. but It is feared that
1t will prove fruitless.
The aviator took carrier pigeons
with him. and 1t Is believed that the
aeroplane capsized SO suddenly that he
was unable to set them loose. The
Arbalete left again for Corsica al a
late hour to make a further hunt for
the missing aviator By means OF
searchlights
On March 5 last Lieutenant Bague
made n sensational and daring Night
over the Mediterranean Sea from An
tibes TO the little Island OF Gorgona
off the italian coast He covered the
distance OF more than 200 Kilometres
124.5 miles,. establishing a new record
for oversee flight It had been his
original intention to land at Ajaccio.
on the west coast OF Corsica. but he
lost his way, and by SO doing covered
greater distance over the water than
II he had carried out his original plan.
