In recognition Of his services to the
Chinese Emperor, bronze statue Of
his celebrated Venetian traveller was
placed in the temple Of "the 500
Genii." or Disciples of Buddha, at
Canton. The floor Of the temple is Of
marble, and the tables and chairs are
all either marble or ebony. There is
an inner court where under huge plan
tain trees the monks having the
guardianship of the temple spend all

Marco Polo died In Venice In 1925,

Not until tasted was the secret re.
vealed, when they discovered that the
crisp, brown little tubes, about two
inches in length, were of celery.
Large, firm stalks were chosen, and
after being cut were dipped in egg
and cracker crumbs. fried in deep fat
or sauteed in butter, and were serv-
ed with a brown sauce In the orig
inal instance this vegetable was
served with fowl. 1t is also nice with

Keep Watch on the TubereuIous.

The Italian government, on account
OF the number of tuberculosis cases
among the Italian emigrants sent back
from America, has appointed boards
Of examiners in the seaports, whose
duty it is to report the arrival Of tu-
berculous persons. These are then
kept under observation in those
places where they settle, to prevent
further spread Of the disease. The
erection Of new sanitoria and other
tuberculosis institutions Is being
urged in Italy, and the number of
beds for consumptives has been con-
siderably increased In different
places.

DISFIGURED WITH ECZEMA

"Our little boy Gilbert was troubled
with eczema when but a few weeks
old. His little face was covered with
sores even to back OF his ears. The
poor little fellow suffered very much.
The sores began as pimples. his lit
tie face was disfgured very much.
We hardly knew what he looked like.
The face looked like raw meat. We
tied little bags of cloth over his
hands to prevent him from scratching.
He was very restless at night, his
little face itched.
I'VE consulted two doctors at Chi
cago, where we resided at that time.
two doctors without any result, we
read of the Cuticura Remedies, and at
once bought the Cuticura Soap and
Ointment. Following the directions
carefully and promptly We saw the re-
suit, and after four weeks the dear
child's face was as fine and clean as
any little baby's face. Every one who
saw Gilbert after using the Cuticura
Remedies was surprised. He has a
head of hair which is pride for any
boy Of his age, three years. We can
only recommend the Cuticura Rene
dies to everybody" (Signed) Mrs. III.

Minot, y. D., Dec. Judge VIM.
Murray received papers notifying him
of a change Of venue taken from the
court of Judge Evan Griffith Of Ken
mare by George Hammacher. arrested
on two charges, one Of assault with a
dangerous weapon and the other with
the illegal sale of. intoxicating
liquors.
Harvey E. Rogers is the complain
ing witness in both cases and charges
that Hammacher discharged a revolt
yer after him while he was on the
Jennie ogg farm southwest of Ken
mare. Rogers also charges that
Hammacher kept for sale intoxicat.
ing liquors on the Ogg farm. Ham
macher was released on $1,000 bonds.
The defendant has been convicted
once before on a pigging charge, but
the complaining witness has failed to
charge Hammacher with a second Of
Tense, a conviction for which would
have meant a term in the state peni-
tertiary. Hammacher filed notice Of
appeal from the former verdict
against him but the time for appeal
having expired he will be brought to
the city today to commense serving
his sentence. The Ogg farm is rath-
er a notorious place. the proprietor,
Jennie Ogg, having recently served a
sentence for maintaining a common
nuisance there. Hammacher was-con-
victed at the same term of court dur
ing which Miss Ogg was found guilty.

DAKOTA winner
IN BARLEY SALES
Manitoba Man Declares That
Farmers of the Province
Lose Out

Winnipeg, Deos 1.-"while in st
John, n. D.. during a visit to that
state investigating farmers condi-
tions.'' said Roderick Mckenzie. Sec
rotary of the Manitoba grain growers,
II saw farmers being paid nine-two
cents a bushel for barley in a grain
elevator there. a sample Of that bar
lay 1 brought to Brandon, Man.. and
I was offered forty cents a bushel."
Binders cost $3.50 in st. John and
s175 in Brandon. E%ighty-one bushels
of barley buys a farmers wagon in
Dakota. 1t takes 212 bushels in Man
itoba. Eight gallons Of coal oil can
be bought with a.bushel of barley in
Dakota. Manitoba farmers must be
satisfied with slightly more than one
for the same quantity. A Dakota
farmer can, with 500 bushels of bar
ley, buy a Canadian gang pillow, a
Manitoba farmer has to haul 100
bushels to get the same pillow.
"a Manitoba farmer pays dearly for
his loyalty and patriotism" conclud-
I'd Mckenzie.
