swallowed up.
Some of the things which unfit
him for the position of guber natori-
al candidate would make him strong
| in congressional fight in this dis
trict. The Seventh is strictly rural
district and Spooner for a good many
years has fought steadily and con-
sistently for the farmer. He de-
serves well at the hands of the rural
voter what ever may be the attitude
Of the city man. There are people
who believe and perhaps with some
reason, that Spooner could get out
and beat Volstead at the primaries,
a belief far from unanimously held
by the editors of this district who
are supposed to know what the sit
uatlon really is.
Spooner was an early supporter of
Volstead. Recently chilliness has
grown up between them which has
not amounted to an actual break but
might easily come to that.
Mr.. Volstead has made no state
ment of his intentions for next year
but practically everyone takes it for
granted that he will be candidate.
If he adheres to political courtesy
Mr.. Spooner would be the first man
in the district to know that Mr.. Vol
stead is not to make the race.
1t seems settled that Alvah East
man is to be the republican candi-
date for congressman at large. The
choice is happy one and will go
far toward uniting the party on ma
tional questions. This was a job
that might have suited Mr.. Spooner
whose abilities would certainly have
graced it but which apparently got
away from him if he ever had any
serious notions of going after it.
He can return to the legislature
as often as he likes and he could go
against Mr.. ..Volstead and perhaps
give the congressman chase or he
can wait until after the next legis-
lature when he may have carved out
for him a congressional { strict to
his liking. In congress Mr.. Spooner
certainly would be a credit to Min
nesota.
The surprise of the year is the
resignation of David F. Simpson
from the state supreme bench. A
year ago Mr.. Simpson was elected
as associate justice for a six years
termsucceeding JudgeT. D. O'Brien.
He entered upon his new duties
year ago and now retires to private
practice.
Judge Simpson is a charming
gentleman of strong personality,
studious, conscientious and of a
strictly judicial turn of mind. He
would have lent dignity and weight
to the supreme bench and the state
has lost valuable servant in his
voluntary retirement.
This move adds to the already
complicated situation. The death
of Judge E. A. Jaggard last spring,
the expirati IN of Chief Justice Starts
term and the resignation of Judge
Simpson makes three vacancies on
the supreme bench.
Chief Start doubtless will be a
candidate to succeed himself and if
so cannot be beaten, probably will
have no opposition. Judge Bum.

Our Funny Bone,

The funny" bone or "crazy" bone,
as it is commonly called. is in reality
no bone at all. but nerve, and its pc
culiap name. Of facetious origin, Is q
pun on the word "humerus." the cylin-
drical bone which runs from the shout
der to the elbow. the ulnar nerve pass
ing around it. The nerve is here super
fetal and therefore comparatively pn-
protected. so that it may be easily
compressed, and then a blow upon IT
causes a strange ttngling sensation in
the course Of its distribution, which is
felt as far away as the little finger.
The humerus has been the occasion
of humor in others, for Locker wittily
writes in AN Old Muff," published
about 1740:
He cannot be complete in aught
Who Is not humorously prone.
A man without a merry thought
Can hardly have q funny bone.

UNCLE HENRY.S ORCHARD.
by EDWIN A. NYE.

"Have you any Rambos"
The salesman at the commission
house selected an overgrown specimen
fostered by some modern orchardist
and, holding 1t out to me, replied, Yes;
this is the Rambo."
Shades of Uncle Henry's orchard!
l had intended to ask for such old
timers as the Milan and the Willow
twig and the others, but turned away.
And at dinner was telling the folks
that apples nowadays were not what
they used to be. "Why, when I was a
boy
Seeing my son wink at his sister,
changed the subject.
But kept my vision.
The vision was of an old time or
chard where the trees grew big and
thrifty.
1t was hazy autumn day. The dust
OF the road was soft to the tread Of
three barefooted boys who stealthily
deployed from the woods where big
log represented the good ship Nancy.
We were playing pirates"
Nor did we know that both Thucyd-
ides and Homer had lauded pirates
or that Scion had kept school for
them in Athens. Ours was the fierce
buccaneering Of Sylvanus Cobb and
Horatio Alger and the New York
Weekly Ledger
The loot Of these freebooters? The
Rambo row, second from the south
east corner Of the stake and ridered
fence"
'sh, lads! Steady now" They say
Uncle Henry has threatened to use his
gum Forward" c'Don't let that dog
see you. Billr') "Jim, get behind that
tree. quick"
Thus the three corsairs.
Did they not know they could have
all the apples they could carry by ask
ing for them? But-in the name Of
Captain Kidd!
And so they fill their pockets and
hats and blouse waists.
Apples of Hesperides?
How Infinitely better the flavor and
tang Of those Rambos, partly eaten
and partly stored beneath the decks of
the Nancy, riding there at anchor, than
the Rambos down cellar at home!
And
But I am a garrulous old man blith-
ering about the good old times. And
all things mortal pass. And the walls
OF ones arteries harden with the years
and the blood moves sluggish.
| But, Rambos?
Why, in those days

Old Time Remedies.

Strange as it may seem to some, the
ingredients Of the witches caldron in
Macbeth" at least a part of them
were once standard remedies among
Europeans. In the tenth and eleventh
centuries a sovereign cure for ague
was the swallowing Of a small toad
that had been choked to death on st.
Johns eve, and splendid remedy for
rheumatism was to fasten the bands
of clothing with pins that had been
stuck into the flesh of either a toad or
a frog. Physicians frequently recon-
mended the water from a toad's brain
for mental affections and that a live
toad be rubbed over the diseased parts
as cure for the quinsy.
