the Washburn High school of which
both were graduates. Mr.. Gessell
was president of this class. Since
1906 Mr.. Gessell has resided most of
the time in minnesota but the love
which was kindled while the two
were classmates has only grown
the brighter during the intervening
years.
The bride is the daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Timothy Kearns of this city
and has lived in this city all her life.
She is young lady of pleasing dis
position and was popular with those
who had formed her acquaintance.
She is graduate of the Washburn
High School.
Mr.. Gessell is also a graduate of
the Washburn High School. Since
leaving school he worked most of the
time in Minnesota and now holds re-
sponsible position with the Arpin
Dredge Company with headquarters
at Theft River Falls, Mimi.
The Times joins with others in
extending congratulations to Mr.. and
Mrs. Gessell.

Broken Into Saturday Night
ard Money Taken
Only a Small Loot Secured.
Big Safe Was Not
Molested.

The post Office in this city was
broken into last Saturday night and
1881 in stamps and money was
taken from the money drawer In the
front of the post office. Entrance to
the building was gained by the break
ing of one of the rear windows and
the supply of stamps and money TAX
en- was what had been left out Of the
big safe to begin the morning busi-
ness with. The big safe was not mo-
Tested but the money drawer and the
postage stamp drawer was broken
open, a sharp instrument having been
used to pry open the lock. The
money order drawer did not contain
any funds but small supply of stamps
and money was secured from the pos
tai drawer.
The postal authorities have been
notified of the robbery and an inspect
or is expected here within day OF

post Office people are inclined to be-
lieve the work to be that of boys OF
amatuer thieves.
An attempt was also made to burg
larize the Berman store building one
night last week when a part of the
back door was cut away and the
officers are inclined to think that the
same parties have been doing all oi
the work.

Deep Snow Doe. no. Stop Them

Although the snow in the
woods is about fourteen inches
deep the hunters still continue
to swarm the woods in pursuit
of the feet footed deer and al.
ready large mum ber have fallen
from the hunters bullet. The
deep snow makes travelling in
the woods rather difficult for
man and deer but with the long

plentiful in Bayfield, County this
season but the slaughter will not
be as heavy as it would have oeen

Remember The Wolf Came

We know you hear great deal of talk from
automobile statesmen about being oversold getting
your order in before they all gone" and all that
sort of thing.
We know that such statements are taken now
with grain of salt They perhaps remind you of
the childhood story Of the boy who cried wolf" But
we must remind you that the wolf finally came And
hence we say to you frankly and honestly that the
Chalmers Company will not be able to build enough
ssThirtySixes" to supply the demand this year.
You only have to recount the fine qualities Of
this car at the price to know that this is true.
So the time to place your order is now and the
earlier the date set for delivery the better There
has never been car so well adapted for winter use
as the @Thirty-Six." You ought to come at once to
see these new cars-the 1912 pacemakers

Chalmers Patented Features

The Chalmers Self Starter is the simplest most
efficient yet devised 1t is of the air pressure type,
but it has Chalmers patented features which make it
an Improvement over any other Starter.
Compressed air has long been used for starting
big stationary gas engines and gasoline railroad
engines Chalmers engineers have simply used tested
principles, but have invented new devices to apply
these principles on motor car and to make them
more effective than ever before
The Chalmers Starter is simple no complicated
mechanism, not difficult to understand not liable to
disarrangement The Chalmers starter positively is
not dangerous
Consider the convenience of this Self-Starter.
Simply take your seat set the spark and throttle for
starting, press the button with your foot and away
you go.

So why buy car lacking this most desirable feature?
Where can you get as good car for ST 800, with
out the SelfStarter, as you get in the Chalmers

The "Thirty-Six" would be unique
for value if it didn't have a Self
Starter.

long stroke makes it splendid puer in sand or mud
or on the hills.
The car has five speed transmission four

fexibility of control With it you climb the seepest
grades without loss of speedand without Furnishing

The "Thirty-Six' has dash adjustment for
the carburetor. You can get the proper mixture
to suit varying weather conditions without getting
out of the car and lifting the hood.
The car also has SO K 4 inch tires and Cont

 And the morrow were today, And then reverse and once again, Travel the same grooves through, Is there anything you said or did That YOU would not say or do? Some act by which you meant no harm, Just at the time? And yet, When learning of the harm it caused, It filled you with regret? Some hasty words when Passion ruled Your tonEue2 And now instead, Your conscience accuses you,
 And you wish them all unsaid2 Did you miss an opportunity
 To prove to some one dear, That they were sometimes in your

 Whether afar or near2 Did you carelessly neglect To speak a kindly word To some poor stricken one, who since Has gone to meet their God? Did you write and mail the letter To that dear one far away, Who perhaps is listening
 For the postman's steps today? Or is everything as you would wish Have you noticed nothing wrongY Since the dawn of yesterday, As Old Time rolled along Isn't there something you would If you could have your way If today could be but yesterday, And the morrow were today

 When 6 o'clock came the owner call ed her aside and said he wished to see her at his office.
 She noticed the young man of the forenoon and the owner of the store told her he wished to be introduced.
 Molly was astonished. as the family was the wealthiest and nobIest in Bos- ton.
 Not long afterward they were mar ried. They are now living happy to- gether and have a large family of beautiful children.

Pretty Molly Sears stood back of the counter in one of the largest stores in Boston.
 She was always in demand at the counter, she was so charming, so pleas ing of voice, and the best glove filter they had.
 Moliy's mother died when she was very young, and her father not being in good health, the children had to go to work and earn a living.
 They were all fortunate in securing employment, although some of them did not receive as much money for their work as Molly. They all did their best to make their home neat, attractive and inviting to all
 The father admired Molly She was the one who would comfort him when he did not feel as well as usual; she was the one who could cheer him when he was sad. It was always Molly he wanted if anything disturbed his peace of mind.
 One day everything seemed to be go- ing wrong, and Molly had been working
