BENEFIT ENTERTAIN
MElVT BOY SCOUTS

The recital which will be given
next Wednesday for the Willmar
Boy Scouts by the pupils Of Miss
Ethel E. Reed of st. Paul promises
to be one of the best entertain
ments of the season. A glance at
the program will prove that it is an
uncommon one, containing some of
the best known and best loved com:
positions by such masters as Cho-
pin, Sindinq and Chaminade. be-
sides a number of splendid duets
and trios. One of the special nov
elites will be Jean Antiga's Ma
zourka de Salon. which Miss Reed
secured in Paris, and which has not
yet been added to the list of any
music dealer in this country.
Every one of Miss Reeds pupils is
practising faithfully and every one
who buys ticket can rest assured
he will hear something really
worth while. 4
The WiIlmar Boy scouts. fol-
whom the recital is given. are as
sisting in the ticket selling. and
they are meeting with good success.
Each one of the pupils will also try
to dispose of a number of tickets,
and the prospects are that Bonde
Hall will hold a capacity audience
next Wednesday evening. The
Scouts will contribute an exhibition
of semaphore signaling and a song
to the program. They will USE
whatever money is made to pur.
chase uniforms and other equip
ment needed.
The program starts at s O'Clock

FALL HATS FOR CHILDREN STYLES in HAIR DRESSING

white wool cord, ending in large wool

the side tiny round cluster of bril-

To clean Kid Gloves.

Take little sweet milk and a piece
of white or brown soap. Fold clean
towel three or four times, spread it
over your dress and spread out the
glove smoothly upon it. Take large
piece of white flannel, dip it In the
milk, then rub it upon the soap and
rub the glove downward toward the
fingers, holding the wrist of it by the
left hand. Continue this process until
the glove, if white, looks of a dingy
yellow, but, If colored, looks dark and
entirely spoiled. Now let it dry and
then put it on your hand, and it will
be soft, smooth, glossy and clean.
Take care, however. to omit no part
of the glove in rubbing it and see that
all the soiled parts are thoroughly
cleaned. This process applies only to
white and colored kid gloves. For
black gloves that are soiled, turned
white and otherwise injured, take a
teaspoonful of salad oil, drop few
drops of ink into it, and rub 1t all over
the gloves with the tip of feather;
then let them dry in the sun. White
kid boots and slippers can also be
cleaned by the first process to look
las good as new" and black kid boots
and slippers can be restored to their
pristine gloss by the latter method.

Smaller chapeaux Will Necessitate
Radical Changes in the Fashion
ing of Coiffures.

The gradual revival of the small
hat is causing several notifications
in the style of our coiffures. The day
OF piles upon piles of curls has quite
passed. and it is even considered good
style to wear the hair almost fiat, so
long as it is not strained back from
the face. In fact, there are a few
women who have always kept to this
fashion OF dressing their hair, and
there is one big dressmaker, noted
for her distinction, who insists upon
her models doing the same thing
They part their hair in the middle,
take it loosely back from the brow
and gather it into rather protruding
coil on the crown of the head. A
tortoise shell pin or two, a silver or
jeweled dagger, or some equally rare
but simple ornament is the only deco
ration allowed with this style of Golf
fure.
In all styles, however, 1t is now the
right thing to avoid ribbons, jeweled
bands, tulle and all things which sug-
gest the turban. The only people
who will be sorry to see the new fash
ions in this particular detail of the
toilet are the hair dressers, who have
been making fortunes out of false
hair.

The DEVILS Tower.

Is generally visited. At present 1t Is
many miles from railroad and few
people visit it in the course of year.
Those who make the trip, which is
usually done from the little northern
Wyoming town of Sundance, feel
amply repaid for their visit.
As one approaches the Devils Tow
er his amazement and awe increase
1t seems Incredible that any forces OF
nature could have carved the solitary
monument that rears it's head so far
above the brown plains. The sides OF
the tower rise sheer from the ground,
it's sides of limestone being fluted,
giving 1t an almost organ-like appear
ance. The rock presents the same APP
pearance from every side. and to scale
1t seems to be an impossibility. 1t is
said that few years ago man and
woman successfully negotiated the as.
cent of the Devils Tower, but they
were compelled to drive iron spikes
in the face of the cliff and mount by
such artificial aids. To ascend the
tower without the use of some such
means would be an impossibility.
1t is not unlikely that, in the course
of year or two the government will
send an official expedition to the top
of the DEVILS Tower monument, and
that stairways and ladders to the sum-
nit will be constructed. Surveys
have been made and it is not impos-
sible to build series of ladders and
stairways by which the venturesome
may reach the top of the rock.
The Indian legends concerning the
Devils Tower are many. The plain
tribes all regarded the rock with SUI
perstitious awe and the medicine men
ascribed its construction to the pow
ers OF darkness. Probably this view
has been echoed by the white men in
christening the rock the Devils Tower.
Indian legends add not little to
the interest surrounding the Devips
Tower. Occasionally the rock is Wis
tied by Indians from adjoining reser-
vations, the Crows and Cheyennes be-
ing located about 200 miles westward.
while the Sioux stop at the tower
every year on their way from their
agencies in the Dakotas to attend the
Grow Indian fair at Crow agency. Red
men and white united in regarding
the great rock with awe, and pioneers
who remember the inspiring sight as
they crossed the pains, are glad that
the government has preserved this
great natural monument for the bene
ut OF posterity

The Devils Tower is a gigantic

later years, when the venturesome
white men began to push across the
northern plains, they utilized the

landmark, looming up on the prairie.
served to enlighten many an emf.
grant as to his whereabouts.
Under the act of 1906, giving the
government the right to set aside all
such natural curiosities for the bene
fit of the people, the Devils Tower
was one of the first national monu
ments created. The Devils Tower
monument consists of about 1000
acres, and preserves for all time this

is at Cheyenne. Probably it will be

GETS FORTUNE FROM GATES

Henry Rockwell Baker, a twenty
year-Old youth of ST. Charles, Ill, will
get $250,000 when he is graduated
from college. Baker is the late John
w. Gates's only nephew. Mr.. Gates
was very fond of him; the millionaire
bequeathed $4,000 to be given to him
at once for his expenses at college
and $250,000 when he gets his degree.
But he will not play football. AL
though his uncle placed no restric-
tions upon him, the lad remembers
that Gates was opposed to football,
and, for that reason, will not attempt
to make team
He has promised when he leaves
college and comes into his $3.50, 900,
that he will stay away from Wall
street. This is also out of Difference
to his late uncle's wishes. John w.
Gates once advised him, if he ever

there is any way of passing law

will probably be taken in the next ses-

There is an economic side to the
marriage of our rich American girls
to titled Europeans. 1t is estimated
that the purchase OF these titles costs
the enormous sum of $1.000,000,0OO
every ten years-a drain that few
countries in the world, perhaps no
other country except our own, could
stand.

not accept something else on which the

of the fact that for thirty years Lydia

PROPOSES a TRUST REMEDY

Uniform state laws governing cor
porations rather than federal corpora
ton control is the remedy proposed
for trusts by Edgar H. Farrar, presi-
dent of the American Bar association.
The great American national dis
grace" said Mr.. Farrar at the recent
convention of the bar association at
Boston, lis found in the issuance of
fictitious or watered stock. This is
made possible by those corporation
laws which provide no governmental
supervision over the organization OF
corporations which require no part OF
the capital stock to be paid in money
and which permit the issuance of
stock at the pleasure of the organizers
and directors at such valuations as
they may choose to place on them. To
my mind, the most vicious OF all the
provisions in the statutes above enl-
merated is that authorizing one cor
poration to own and vote stock in an
other. This provision is the mother
of the holding cOmDany and the trust
