Neither Governor Eberhart nor his

their boosters will be there. That
much is promised. Launched two
years ago in the interest of the up

that compelled attention and wrung
from a reluctant legislature many
things that the northern section was
justly entitled to, but l am afraid for
its future Entirely too many indi-
yiduals with an AK to grind nave
crept into its ranks and they, aided
by the politicians, are bringing the
whole thing in line of advertising
that is undesirable. That the poll
ticians are trying to- use the Asso-
citation for their own selfish ends
has not been lost upon the promot-
ers and the program this year has
been carefully selected with view
grinding nature Courtesy compelled

I have it on authority that there was
more or less relief when it was de-

s. Y. Gordon was among the favor

fetal way could not be countenanced
because of his promised candidacy
for the governorship. Care was exer-
cised throughout in the preparation
OF the program and to the credit OF
the Association it can be said that
it is among the best yet. All this,
however. will not prevent the pres
ence of the politicians and it is their
blight that worries those honestly
interested in the work of the Asso-

cannot be helped, and so what are

Wednesday morning. Nov. %, at

Elizabeth Summer. at the home of
her daughter Mrs. S. ID. Jardine of
Ashley township. Mrs. Summer was
taken i'll the preceding Friday night

rallied from the delirium which was
the first evidence of the attack.
Funeral services were held at 2
o'clock the following afternoon from
the Jardine home. Interment was i'm
the West Union cemetery.
The maiden name of the deceased
was Elizabeth Ann Steele She was
born at Youngstown, Ohio, May "a,
1884. In 1853 she was married to
Obadiah Summer. After living a
short time in the eastern states ar.
and Mrs. Summer came to Minnesota,
settling in Stearns county. In 1880
they moved to Cass county and there
remained until few months ago,
when they came to make their home
with the Jardine family.
During her early life the deceased
Joined the TDunkard church and re-
manned faithful member Of that de-
nomination until her death. Mrs.
Summer leaves husband and four
children, two sons and four daugh-

Third gubernatorial candidate talk
has cast the spotlight on State Aud
itor Iverson and there is uneasiness
in the ranks of the others in conse-
quence. AS l once pointed out in
this column Mr.. Iverson, bar none,
has the best political organization in
the state and the man that ever has
him for a competitor will have to go
some. And it is not pap controlled
either. 1t is the work of over fif-
teen years of active official life and
it responds when called upon. That
Mr.. Iverson, however, is going to
pass up his present berth for an un-
certainty is doubtful, and more so
in light of the fact that he smiles
when it is mentioned. That the Fill
more county man will have to be
reckoned with some of these days is
admitted.
Time brings many changes and one
of the most prominent is the vaca-
ton of the North Dakota political
contingent of the Merchants hotel
in st. Paul and it's new residence at
the West hotel in Minneapolis. Alex
Mckenzie dropped his grip in the
latter city several months ago and
ever since the West has been North
Dakota headquarters. In days gone
by no one aspired to office in North
Dakota without first visiting the big
fellows who held forth at the Mer-
chants hotel. There they held forth,
and it was there that much of North
Dakota's early political history was
written.

To the wise ones it looks pretty
much as if county option and few
of the other issues that have graced

other parties for the past five years
would be among the missing next

and Democracy especially looks upon
it as one of the things to be forgot

M ILLINERY modes have run to the
i've new and strange lately and the
question of what next" Is asked
with an anxious tone by those who
must suit the caprice Of fashion or
lose In the business race. Just what
next no one up to this writing knows
exactly, but of one thing we are fair
ly sure, and that is, continuing vogue
Of small hats. We have come about as
close to the bonnet as we are likely to
get, and we will depart therefrom,
when spring comes. But the small hat
Is here and will be here; for which all
those who travel in street cars and
ride in elevators or walk upon wind
swept streets, are duly thankful.
Two types. as unlike as possible, are
shown here. One is of the present
mode, fitting like a bonnet and
trimmed at the back with big rosette
of ribbon. This is an old development
OF the bonnet-turban style which is
dear to the winter girl in many vary
Ing forms. This is a double coronet
brim. development of the turban, on
lines familiar, in every community
from one ocean to the other. The
double coronet is by way OF variety
and the draping is very eleYerly ar
ranged by means of this peculiar
| frame.
A precursor of new ideas is shown

in the jaunty little helmet hat with
visor trent. Brought forth in Paris
and transplanted to New York, 1t is
shown in the smartest of Fifthtavenue
shops. Worn at just little angle one
can see how widely II differs from the
demure bonnet-like shapes.
1t is simple looking piece of mil
linery. but will bear studying. The
frame is covered with white satin and
faced with black velvet. Piping cord
finishes the brim edge and the velvet
collar and fiat bow at the front. This
particular model is one of those bid
ding for favor and Is radical new de-
parture. Whether she will or she
won't" is the all important question.
My lady of fashion is ready for
changes, but just what will please her
restless fancy remains to be found
out. Small, flexible hats are the most
promising for street wear. They are
commendable from the standpoint of
comfort, but their correct adjustment
will take care on the part of the wear
ers and tendency to lose their orig
inal lines will have to be combatted.
In felts and velvets. as in furs, the
soft hats have body enough to remain
shapely. They are without doubt the
most successful of new things placed
before the public.

NURSE TELLS OF SKIN CURES

II have seen the Cuticura Remedies
used with best results during the past
twenty years. In my work as nurse,
many skin disease cases came under
my observation, and In every in
stance, | always recommended the
Cuticura Remedies as they always
gave entire satisfaction. One case In
particular was that of a lady friend
of mine who, when child, was af-
flicted with eczema which covered her
face and hands entirely, breaking out
at intervals with severer torture. She
could not go to school as the disfi2re-
ment looked terrible. l told her to get
at once a set of Cuticura Remedies.
After the use of only one set she was
perfectly we'll.
"A grown lady friend was afflicted
with salt rheum in one of her thumbs,
and she was cured by the Cuticura
Remedies. Still another lady had dry
salt rheum in both palms of her hands
every fall of the year. They used to
be 80 painful she could scarcely wet
her hands until she began to use the
Cuticura Remedies which cured her.
/ have also seen them cure children
of ringworm. The children's faces
would be all circles and rings around
the cheeks, and the neck land after
treatment with the Cuticura Soap and
Ointment they were completely cured.
My husband had rheumatism on his
arm and / used the Cuticura Oint-
ment. It made his arm as timber and
nice, whereas 1t was quite stiff before
/ began to apply the Ointment.
Last May / had an ingrowing toe
nail which was very painful, as the
side of the nail was edging right
down in the side of my toe. I cut
the nail out of the cavity 1t made, and
of course applied the Cuticura Oint-
ment to the part affected. It soothed
1t and in less than ten nights 1t was
all healed through constant use of the
Ointment. Ten days ago l had my
left hand and wrist burned with boil
ing lard, and Cuticura Ointment has
completely cured them. have just
recommended the Guticura Remedies
to another friend, and she is pleased
