MAKES Plain some
0BSCUREPASSAGE
THIS FEATURE OF THE FORUM
BIBLE is NOT ONLY INTEREST.
ING BUT INSTRUCTIVE TO OLD
AND YOUNG ALIKE-REelN Saw
ING CERTIFICATES.

Almost everybody owns a Bible and
some have several-sometimes one for
each member of the family. But The
Forum & Republican Bible is differ
ent from any other ever published.
1t is the regular authorized version,
to be sure. but is illustrated in a
manner that has never before been
approached.
There are 500 subjects selected ac-
cording to specified verses throughout
the volume and each subject is handl-
ed knowingly by some of the worlds
great artists, the result being an IL
Illustrated volume that cannot be ex-
celled.
When Edward w. Box, the able edi-
tor of The Ladies' Home Journal, first
saw this new illustrated Bible, he said
that he liked 1t because everything
about it was well done and it seemed
to him to have been done in the right
spirit. "4The book ITSELF" said Mr..
Box, has been approached by the an
notator with reserve and intelligence,
and by its artists with sympathy and
knowledge. It has not been made a
meaningless picture book. The pictures
here serve a distinct purpose. They
enrich the text. but they do more;
they intelligently explain it, and many
a hitherto obscure passage will as
sumo to thousands a new meaning
through these eye-teaching pictures.

Hildreth Raped Burke.
Col. M. A. Hildreth of Fargo, made
a speech yesterday afternoon in which
he took somewhat of a rap at the gov

chief executive was only in the kindli-
est vein. But he said that democrats

single man, as he felt had been the
case in North Dakota where a one
man machine had been built up at
the expense OF the party and party
principles.
Colonel Hildreth felt that Governor
Burke had done much for the state
but had also done much in building
up Burke party rather than the DEM
ocratic party. This speech was an
] swered by f. B. Page Of Grand Forks
who said Governor Burke was DEM
I ocracy's truest friend in the state and
by Warden Hellstrom who felt John
Burke was the Bryan of the north
west.
Publicity for Burke.
State Chairman Macarthur asked il
anything should be done regarding
paid publicity for Governor Burkehs
candidacy for the vice presidency 81
the Baltimore convention. He said
that certain news and political writers
on big eastern papers would undertake
the booming of Governor Burke, prob.
ably at some little expense he sup.
posed but that such notice would draw
forth other comment from other pa

MARVEL IN GATHERING NEWS
Ordinary Man Cannot Appreciate
What the Production of Great
journal Involves.

The ordinary reader, as he opens his
daily journal. is content with a vague
feeling that it somehow edits and com.
poses itself: he seldom reflects upon
the immense amount of organization,
upon the care in the selection of news,
and even upon the mechanical skill in
adjustment SO that every column may
be exactly filled, which are required
for even the most normal issue. He
seldom reflects upon the speed with
which 1t all has to be done. That a
great paper should appear morning
after morning generally correct in its
news, readable and sound in it's liter.
airy matter, accurate in it's printing,
that 1t should be distributed all over
tn country and the world at the right
moment, is none the less a marvel
because 1t has happened SO often that
people have ceased to look upon Il

Nearly everybody believes that Ben

constructor of the first lightning rod.
In this particular they are mistaken,
as the first lightning catcher was In
vented by poor monk. Of Bohemia,

was composed of a pole surmounted
by an iron rod, supporting IL curved
branches and terminating in as many
metallic boxes filled with iron ore.
The entire system of wires was uni
ted to the earth by large chain. The
enemies. of the inventor, jealous Of his
success, excited the peasants of the To-
cality against him and under the pre-
text that his lightning rod was the
cause Of the excessive dry weather
had the rod taken down and the In
ventor imprisoned.

CoIlede Girls,

First of all the girl who goes to col,
lege must remember that the initial
impression that she makes determines
very largely her happiness or unhappi-
ness for the first few weeks. Above
all things, she should not arrive in an
deliberately trimmed suit, beplumed
hat and pumps. Such things may be
suitable for rare occasions at home,
but they find practically no place in
the outdoor wardrobe of the we'll
bred college woman The plain tail
ored suit cut on good lines, a tailored
hat to match and neat shoes create an
impression of quiet good taste and APP
propriateness. This keynote of SIM
plicity should be recognized through
out her wardrobe Elaborate chiffon
or net waists and fussy neckwear are
of little use, for college girls room
was never designed for clothes which
require careful treatment and pro
lection from dust-Leslie's

SHOWED SCENES OF CRIMES
Tour and Pointed Out Residences
of His Victims.

A man named Rene Foerschler, aged
Twenty-Five, who is in the Sante
prison (Paris), awaiting trial on a
charge of burglary, recently wrote to
M. Poncet, the magistrate in charge
of his case, confessing to 205 other
burglaries. The magistrate at first re-
fused to believe him, whereupon the
prisoner offered to take him on per-
sonally conducted tour of the scene of
his exploits The other morning
therefore, NJ Poncet, the prisoner and
two policemen set out in a cab for
drive round the streets of Paris In
the course of the day FoerschIer
pointed out thirty-two houses at which
he had committed burglaries. The fol-
lowing day the experiment was re-
peated, and the scenes of forty-two
other robberies were pointed out. The
two next days, also, the magistrate
resumed his task Foerschler- has a
wonderful memory. He pointed out
the different houses without hesitation
and even remembered little details,
as, for example, that such and such
house formerly had no carpet. He
affirms that in the course of his ca
reer he has stolen 900 watches, 1882
earrings, 1872 silver plates, 80 gas fit
tings, 361 tie pins and SO gold
brooches.
