IN THE SEA IS INDEPENDENCE
Ocean Is Typical of Existence, Jules Verne Said, Supernatural and
 Wonderful.

The sea is everything. It covers seven-tenths of the terrestrial globe. Its breath is pure and healthy It is an immense desert, where man is never lonely, for he feels life stirring on all sides.
 The sea is only the embodiment of supernatural and wonderful ex- istence. It is nothing but love and emotion: it is the living infinite" In fact, Nature manifests herself in it by her three kingdoms, mineral, yege- table and animal. The sea is the vast reservoir of Nature. The globe began with the sea, so to speak; and who knows it will not end with it? Tn it is supreme tranquility. The sea does not belong to despots. Upon it's sur face men can still exercise unjust laws, fight, tear one another to pieces and be carried away with terrestrial horrors. But at 30 feet below it's level their reign ceases. their influence is quenched and their power disappears. Live in the bosom of the watersl There only is independence.-Jules Verne.

PARIS IN PROTEST
Ugly Advertising Posters Meet
 With DisapprovaI.
Famed Beauty of the Streets of the Gay Capita Disappearing Because Of Greed That Dominates
 Commercialism.

The beauty of Paris! Do not i'm agine that Paris has patent on good taste. Recently a completely Parisian concern of the Boulevard painted its entire front screaming red! Mme Roland's historic house has a side wall, high. exposed, and one of the department stores spread pink and green letters on it, five feet high. The extensive building operations of the Boulevard have raised up immense hoardings. All are covered with pos ters, and fourth of those posters are in doubtful taste.
 Can what Is grotesque, comic, ugly or aesthetieally shocking make good advertisement? The general practice of greater Paris advertisers says no, but leaves the field of shock" all the more free to the small and hungry who strain for effect Nevertheless competition tempts the great advertis CTS to novelty. and ugliness is novelty in Paris. So the beauty of the streets trembes in the balance.
 The French government wishes to encourage art in street advertise ments. When pictorial posters are ar tistic the public taste is soothed and uplifted; foreign visitors find the beautiful streets free from note of discord. But note the native poor are even more concerned.
 "The street is the parlor of the poor," says the poet Rostand. The rich in their automobiles can hurry through dirty streets and shut their eyes to advertising vulgarity, but when the poor have an hour of leisure the street is their parlor. salon, mu- scum. Why hang it's walls with ug- illness and banality?" The author of "Chantecler" as advertising specialist need not astonish you; the astronomer Poineare, cousin of the prime min ister, has even analysed the princi- pies.
 Pictorial advertising has two ob- jects," says the sublime mathemati- clan First, to attract attention; sec ond, to fix an ebsession, a haunting of the mind. But in order for the obses- sion to be fruitful the memory must connect the advertised object with the

LONG ACTIVE LIFE
Veteran of Editorial Ranks Is Dr.
 George Brown.
Founder of the First Free State News paper Published in kansas-Re- members the Exciting Days
 of Border Warfare.

There Is living today in Illinois a man who played a large part in the making of Kansas history. He is Dr. George Brown, who came to Lawrence in 1854 and there established the Her aid of Freedom, the first free state newspaper ever published in Kansas. Today Dr. Brown is almost the last of the men who fought for Kansas in that bloody time before the war, risk ing their lives to uphold a principle they believed sacred-the principle of human freedom, says the Kansas City Star.
 Dr Brown is ninety-two years old in the late evening of his life-but he still remembers vividly the exciting events of the border warfare days, when he published the Herald of Free dom from 6 log cabin in Lawrence, writing against slavery with Q fear 1essness that made him the object of deep hatred from the southerners, who were equally determined to make Kansas slave state. So it happened, when Lawrence was raided in 1856, that one of the first buildings to which the torch was applied was the office of the Herald of Freedom.
 Tn the fall of 1854 he removed to Lawrence. Kan, and erected a house. the timber of which was cut and hewed by his printers and sawed by the New England Emigrant Aid com pany's mill. It was the first lumber sawed by the eompany's mill. and when he had finished his building at once he began to publish the Herald of Freedom, which helped to make Kansas a free state. This paper, D. w Wilder said, was the most per- feet i'll character, typography and gen. eral makeup of any paper I ever saw" Governor Geary was present upon an occasion when the stars and stripes were raised to the summit of the staff over the Herald building and made brief speech to the assembled multi

PEARL FISHING IN SCOTLAND
Gems of Considerable Value Have Been Found in the Rivers of
 That Country.

It is a common belief that rearl oysters are found only in ocean beds, and perhaps it may be a surprise to some to learn that pearl fishing is ex- tensively carried on in several Scot tish rivers and if the pearls there found are not quite so fine as those got from the ocean, they are in con siderable demand and can command good prices. On the River Fay 40 miles from it's mouth. quite Q small trade is done in fresh water pearls, and there the method of procedure is as follows: The fisher having armed himself with a long bamboo pole split at one end, and a contrivance very like a tin pail with a glass bottom embarks in his boat Sometimes only a large wooden box) and sculls out on- to the stream, which at this point runs very slowly and is of considerable depth. Letting down his pair few inches into the water so that he can clearly see through the glass bottom the objects on the bed of the river, he souls along until he comes t9 a ciump of oysters (which grow with the sharp edge upward) ana letting down his long pole he secures one of them in the cleft and lifts it into the boat After having procured a score or two he opens every shell with his knife and examines carefully the inner edge. The gems, however. are diff cult to get. often several dozen oys- ters being opened before one is found As much as 30 pounds has been got for one Of the fresh-water pearls.- Wide world Magazine.

 Whence the mathematician con- cludes for simple beauty and harmony to produce lasting returns in posters. Also, if posters be really admitted 10 the coming Salon, such philosophy of advertising will become part of the art critics baggage. The merits. not of Vasseur's massage cream or Mill lard's mincemeat, but the obsessing beauty of Roubilles or Leandres pos- ters of them will obtain solemn dis cussion-to the equal advantage of Vasseur's and Millards sales! It will be we'll worth while to order an art poster.

HORSE DOCTOR
WENT TO JAIL;
.. HAD NO LICENSE

F~essenden, N. D., Dec. Elm county
court DR.. T. H. Druen was tried upon
a charge of violating the statute reg
ulating the practice Of veterinary sur
geons.
The trial Of DR.. Druen created con-
siderable interest, as the accused il
well known in many parts of the coun-
ty, having lived and practiced his
profession in Fessenden for some little
time. At the time sentence was to be
pronounced upon him he addressed the
court in answer to the usual question
of whether the defendant had any
thing to say why the courts sentence
should not be given him, stating
several why it vas an in
justice. First he said he was q gradu-
ate Of the best veterinary school Of
all Europe, that Of Keil, Germany.
Second, that he possessed better tools
and instruments than registered men
had, and more, he knew how to use
them. He gave more along the same
line, and when he completed his talk,
he was given a sentence of $50 and
costs, the latter amounting in the
neighborhood Of $50. He informed the
court that he had no money and would
go to jail.
When seen later by the reporter
LIZ OTuen, III InS CUSTODY OIL StAST-
If Lyness, said that he wished TO
state that as soon as he was released
from Jail that he would again be ready
to resume his profession. Upon being
asked If it would not be wiser and
cheaper to obtain the necessary
license, he said that he would not
a license from men who a
practiced for three years when he him
self had spent thirty-two. He added
that no Incubator" doctors could tell
him whether he could practice or not,
and that he could make as much

FORMER HARVEY MAN SERIOUS
LY INJURED BY AN Elk.
PLOSION,

Harvey, N. D., Dec. 9.-The follow
ing taken from one of the exchanges,
gives an account of a disastrous ex-
p~erience of Martin Neary, a former
well known Harvey man, and for some
time in the employ of the First Ma
tionaI bank OF this place. The ac-
count follows:
His face, arms and body badly
burned and his right hand broken, M
w, Neary, a we'll known Spokane min.
ing man, is al Sacred Heart hospi-
tai, the victim of a peculiar accident
which occurred Tuesday while Neary
and part of friends were on a
hunting trip near Libby, Mont. The
attending physician, DIR. Sidney s.
Oppenheimer, says the patient will
recover.
The accident occurred Tuesday
night in a cabin occupied by Neary,
James Leary, John Syphers and Harry
Howard. Neary awoke in the night and
heard q rat knawing at sorne food in
a box nearby. Raising his rifle, he
fired at the rodent and the bullet
pierced q small box of giant powder,
which Neary had forgotten was stored
in the grub box. The powder ex-
ploded, blowing one section of the
cabin to splinters. Neary and Leary
were injured, but the other two mer
escaped unframed.
Neary was rushed to Spokane and
his family, who reside at South 1908
Oak street, were notified.
