There old woman who lived in a shoe
She had so many children she didn't know what
to do
She had so much trouble to keep their clothes
clean,
Till she got Fels-Naptha. with the wrapper
red and green,
Now her washings easy, clothes are cleaner too.
Isn't it good thing she found out what to do?
Here's an arithmetic problem that's
worth figuring out.
How many hours do you spend each
week in washing clothes3
Multiply the number by So.
Then divide the total into two parts
and one of those parts is how much time
you would save in a year by using
Fels-Naptha Soap.
You would likely save more.
Most women who use Fels-Naptha
Soap do their washing in less than half the
time it would take in the old way.
And with one-fourth the work
And without any extra expense for fuel
because Fels-Naptha Soap cleanses clothes
in cool or lukewarm water.
No boiling; no scalding; no steaming
suds Summer or Winter.
Don't spend more of your life than's
necessary in washing clothes.
Do them the quicker, better way-the
Fels-Naptha way.
Just follow directions on the red and
green wrapper.

GETTING READY FOR DAY
Committee Warns All Citizens to Save
Pennies, Nickels, Dimes and
Dollars for Next Friday.

Next Friday is tag day. the time
when the populace of the city gives
it's annual Offering to the poor. The
money Is collected under the direction
of the tag day committee Of the AS
ISOLATED Charities and not one penny
contributed in this manner is spent
where it is not needed. The ladies of
the city are entering into the CAM
paign with the usual vim and vigor
and their ambition is to make the re-
receipts of the 1911 tag day far sur
pass those of last years charity day.
The committee is busy soliciting the
army of ladies to take charge OF the
various boxes at the different hours
of the day and getting the tags ready
for sale. Everything will be in readi-
ness bright and early Friday morning
and the warning is let no man or
woman enter out without their dona-
ton ready for the box at the first
corner"
Tag day is an occasion which is
open to old and young. Every child Is
privileged to wear a tag If he gives
but a penny and there is no limit to
the price that may be paid by the BUSH
ness men. the bankers. brokers and
merchants. The ladies hope to report
a long list of big contributors as we'll
as small ones and it is up to the citi-
Zens not to disappoint them.

FARMERS ARE WORKING FAST

Weather Conditions and Are
Pushing Ahead Rapidly.

According to we'll known farmers
who we're in the city today. and men
who have been over this part Of the
country In the past week, II the wealth.
er will continue clear for the next
week, all Of the grain will be threshed.
Up to the present time q lot of grain
in some sections has not been gotten
in. owing to the long stretch OF wet
weather In the latter part Of Septem-
Der and the first week in October. At
the present time nearly every thresh-
ing outfit in the country is being used.
The lack of harvest hands has
necessarily forced the farmers into CO.
operation and Is soon as work on one
farm has been completed the outfit
on to the next one, the neigh
bors helping each other.
Although some fall plowing has
been done. the necessity Of helping
each other with threshing has COM
PEELED the farmers to put of much of
their fall breaking Of the soil. The
frost also retards the plowing.
Local railroad men say that the
wheat Is being shipped out OF the
country In large quantities. Minne-
apolis and Duluth about breaking
on the shipments from this Sec
ton.

ON PREHISTORIC MAN
University Man Addressed Fargo Au.
dicncc on That Subject Sunday
Evening

Fargo Courier News: Professor O.
G. Libby of Grand Forks of the de-
partment of history of the University
or North Dakota. was the speaker last
evening at the Grand theater at the
lecture course and he took for his SUBJ
3eet Prehistoric Man and was intro
duced In a neat speech by DR.. Max
Bait after a vtry fine concert by the
Grand's orchestra. each number being
warmly welcomed.
He said the study of humanity was
the great, problem in which all found
interest: I'VE all wan to know about
life," said he, I'VE all want to know
as much as science will teach US
about life and about human life in
particular. We have been studying
scientific education. scientific philan-
thropy and scientific farming and it
all means the study of life. We all
study the origin of life and Of human
institutions. The world did not come
by chance. Everything progresses.
We are always thinking of order.
whether We have the right order or
wrong, we think of it," He said that
scientists say that the old saying that
the earth is dying u is wrong; that
1t is changing all the time and is al
the glacial period to show that this
was the case. The earth is continually
keeping up to its balance. All philoso-
pliers and biologists study life and
they find the study to be most inter-
esting. In looking backward we come
to bow to human life. He then took
up prehistoric man and showed how
he had progressed from the stone
age down to the present time. He
dwelt at some length on the cliff dwell
ers. on the lake dwellers. on the mound
builders. on the ave men and during
his lecture he used a large number of
slides which we're thrown on the screen
to illustrate his different points.
He introduced some Of the pictures
of the carving done in stone by pre-
man and brought these down
to the present and showing what
progress had done for mankind.
It was a great lecture and was lis
tened to closely by a large and atten-
tive audience. 1t was both instruc-
tive and interesting and is considered
one of the best that has been given in
all Of the Grand's free lecture courses.
