Montrose has fallen in love with
her neighboring valley towns and
announces a meeting for an express
sion of feeling to be held in Delta
On january Gath. Notwithstanding
that Santa Claus has made his an
nual visit and taken his departure,
Montrose has learned the best sys-
tenn among children for getting
things, and she's got some of the
brightest ones in the want class we
know of. That our towns will work
harmoniously together for things
that will benefit them alike, there
is no question, and plenty of har-
monious action is a good thing. ev-
en- where the object secured is for
one town. for what benefits one will
l:elp others.

PROSPECTS AHEAD.

For the past ten years many
things have been attempted for Del
ia, and while as yet none of these
things have been accomplished, the
work has not been lost Much pub
licity has been given the field as
ripe for the enterprises sought, and
no one doubts that they will come in
due course of time.
The statement that the influence
of the work has not been lost is
evidenced in the present knowledge
of the better laid plans for the es-
tablishing of some of the enterpris-
es worked for. and the better pros
2ect of enlisting capital with which
to make them certain.
The Independent predicts that
within short six months there
will be things doing in and around
Delta which will make the whole
state sit up and take notice.

Rev alphabet" Richeson, in pris-
on at Cambridge, Massachusetts,
charged with the murder of Miss Lin
nell, has confessed to his guilt He
says, however, that: "Henious as is
my crime, God has not wholly aban-
doned me- The devil also possibly
has a lurking recollection of him.
1t is difficult to classify the Richie
son species of animal criminal De-
generacy is too mild term to apply
to the fiend in the church who pro-
fanes the sacred as well as the civil
and moral realms. If God ever had
anything to do with this criminal
he should have parylized him, or
ruined a presumably confiding girl
of his flock and then poisoned her.
God probably has about as much to
do with that sort of criminality as
he would be supposed to have to do
with running freight train. 1t is
more likely to be the other fellow.
Occasionally a negro is burned to
death at the stake for being sup
posed guilty of crime such as this
Richeson has confessed. This man s
crime, consid ering the difference
in education and position of the
two, is far greater than any in the
throughout the Southern states.

UNITED STATES STILL THE
WORLDS BREAD BASKET

Washington, D. c., Nov. 1.-The
United States is the bread basket Of
the world according to the bureau Of
foreign and domestic commerce, which
toay issued report showing that
this country is furnishing food stuffs
to other nations at a steadily rising
ratio lille the exports of c.rn and
meal fell off sharply, more than one
hundred million bushels of wheat were
sent abroad during the past 10 months,
as against eighty-three millions dur
ing all of last year
The heavy wheat exports were off
set somewhat by the decline in other
farm products. The United States as
provider however, maintained it's po-
sition, for the report proceeds:
While the products of the farm will
show but little change in the general
export record of 1912, those of manu-
facturers show marked advance, the
value of the manufactures exported in
the period for which figures are now
available, exceeding by more than one
hundred millions dollars those that
the grand total of manufactures ex-
ported in the full year of 1912 will
considerably exceed one billion dol
lars and form about one-half the total
exports.

ideal HUSBAND
ALWAYS KISSES
Woman Wants Him PrOdiQaI
With Sweet NOthiRgs
(By Frances L. Garside. }

The ideal husband is one who is
yearning doormat.
Lysander John Appleton was door
mat, but his soul had long since ceased
to yearn. For this reason he fell short
of the ideal and his wife was dissat-
isfied.
She wanted him to tell her he Lowell
her. He paid her bills and thought he
told her.
She wanted no timetable to cut
short his morning good-by kiss. She
lOnged to see him come home at night
with speed increased by thoughts of
the greeting kiss that awaited him.
He thought of the first train he could
catch in the morning and of his din
ner at night He was not ideal
Mrs. Lysander John appealed to the
courts. my husband" she sobbed to
the judge, mo longer kisses me-"
1t was grave offense. The sentence
must match the crime The court rul-
ed that for the next seven years Mrs.
Appleton must report daily that her
husband had kissed her at least twice
in the "a hours.
And if you fail" said the court,
looking grimly over its glasses, your
sentence will be doubled"
Lysander John began serving his
time next morning. His wife was sew
ing when he left the house, and he
waited patiently While she took four
pins and a needle from her mouth.
Then he kissed her.
To him the evening kiss tasted of the
beans and onions and carrots she had
been tasting while getting dinner but
he said nothing.
The next morning when he left she
was doing her back hair and her
mouth was full of hairpins. But he is
a law-abiding citizen and carried out
the courts decree.
The compulsory kissing had lasted
a week when Mrs. Appleton appeared
before the Judge.
my husband she sobbed, kissed
me twice a day, but his kisses lack
favour. He kissed me like a hen peck
ing at pebble, and if he aims at my
lips he is in such hurry the kiss
lands on my ear.
II don't want any more of your
compulsory kissing, want the courts
order revoked"
That night when Lysander John
learned that the court had dissolved
him, he gave his wife a kiss that was
voluntary.
1t lacked the dry parchment taste ot
the court kiss and smacked a little OF
the courtship kind.
Mrs. Lysander John gave a smile
Her husband was approaching the

Milwaukee, Wis, Nov. 23.-The cont

Conclusions reached by the commits

John Schrank is suffering from in

and of a systematized variety.
Second, in our opinion he is in
sane at the present time.
Third, on account of the connec-
ton existing between his delusions
and the act with which he stands
charged, we are of the opinion that
he is unable to confer intelligently
with counsel on the conduct of his de-

cine. It is manifestiy unjust to refer
such questions to a body Of men who
are already convinced of the worthless
ness of proprietary medicines. To give
such a body of men the unlimited au-
thority to decide whether our claims
for Peruna are valid or not is a mani
fest violation of my constitutional
rights.
NV claims are based both on cred
liable theoretical grounds and upon ir-
REPUTABLE statistics. But / am quite
willing to have our claims as to the
composition of Peruna properly and
thoroughly investigated, and If found
to be false a proper penalty should be
fixed Or if am making any state

nature, symptoms or danger of any
disease, If l am making any such
statements as to unnecessarily brighten
the people by false assumptions, am
willing to submit to any unbiased tri-
