The Plain Truth Is This.

Rupture-as explained in our free book
can't lie relieved or cured-can't even be Kept
from growing worse-unless constantly held In
place Just as broken bone can't knit
unless the parts are held securely together
And-just as bandage or splint Is the
only way a broken bone can be heid-the right
kind Of truss is the only thing in the world
that can keep rupture from coming out
What a difference il will make when you
get that kind of truss
And YOU can get exactly that kind OF truss
without risking a cent of your money
It's the famous Cluthe Truss or Cluthe
Automatic Massager.
Far more than truss-far more than
merely a device for holding the rupture In
place.
So different from everything else for rup-
fure that it has received Is separate patents
Thousands say il Is comfortable as their
clothing.

waist and no leg strap-nothing TO pihch

can't shift or slp-the only truss In exist
ence that is honestly guaranteed to hold your
rupture every minute of the day.

The Value of Good Roads,

Anoka are no better than in the vi
entity of Princeton according to the
Anoka Herald. That paper says:
''Farmers claimed that the road
conditions about .Anoka were such
that they could take few cents less
a bushel in other towns and make
money every trip by the bigger loads
which they could haul. X i X x
There is scarcely a road leading
into the city of Anoka today which

Lewis Robideau's Barn Burns.

Last Thursday morning a barn on
the farm of Lewis Robideau, in
Greenbush, burned to the ground
and it's contents were also consumed.
Mr.. Robideau had made smudge to
keep mosquitoes from the cattle, but
before he went to breakfast, as he
thought, he put the fire out. How
ever, when he came from the house
after his morning meal he discovered
the barn to be in flames sparks from
the smudge had evidently ignited it.
He, his son, Harvey, and neighbors
endeavored to extinguish the fire,
but were unable to do so. Seven
stacks Of grain stood within Is feet
of the barn but these were saved
from destruction. The barn, upon
which small insurance was carried,
was valued in $3.50; the contents of
the building, harness, farm tools,
etc., were uninsured. ..=.-~...--.:l.z -

VeEUME XxXVI. NO. 80

Minneapolis, Mimi, came to light
here today, when it became known
that after thirty years separation
from his family he has become re-
united to his mother and three sis
tiers and one brother, and finds out
that his name is not Farmer, but
Newstedt.
In 1882 Prof. Farmer, or Newstedt.
came to this country with his father
from Hungary. Ten days later he
was lost in New York. He drifted
to Minnesota, where family named
Farmer took him and sent him to
school. At the age of 16 he was
teaching school. At the age of 81
he was at the head of the St. Cloud
schools and today is with the New
York state board of health in an ex-
pert capacity.
The reunion came about while
Prof. Farmer was at banquet at
which lost children were mentioned.
Some one ventured to guess that Mrs.
Max Silverstein Of Peekskill, N. Y,
was sister of Prof. Farmer. Inves-
t1gation made revealed that this
was true. He hurried to Peekskill
and while there telephoned his sis
ter, Mrs. Goldkassel of this city.
He then found out that his mother,
his brother, Otto Newstedt, and an
other sister, Mrs. Lena Beller, also
lived here. They are now on their
way to Peekskill, where Prof. Farm
er is visiting Mrs. Silverstein.
On Thanksgiving day, in this city,
the party will gather at the home of
Mrs. Goldkassel, where an old-fash-
Toned family reunion will be held.
The father is dead.

for representative, will appear in all
the newspapers Of that county this
week, and the Union has also been
requested to publish the same which
is as follows:
TO THE VOTERS OF ISANTI COUNTY.
Since 1884 western Isanti county
has not had representative in the
legislature. During those % years
the east end of the county has been
continuously represented in either
the house or senate: Hon. H. F.
Barker of Cambridge, house in 1887
Hon. Daniel Anderson of Cambridge,
house in 1889: Hon. G. Wahlund OF
North Branch, house in 1891 and in
1893: Hon. John Sederberg of Isanti,
house in 1895 and 1897; Hon. H. F.
Barker of Cambridge, senate in 1899,
1901, 1903 and 1905: Hon. T. H. Hor.
ton Of North Branch, house in 1907
and 1909.
At the primary election in 1910 a
Cambridge man was candidate fol
senator, and another Cambridge man
was a candidate for the house, but
both were defeated.
This year western Isanti has a
candidate for the legislature for the
first time in % years, I. F. Walker
of Spencer Brook. His opponent is
Hon. T. H. Horton, who has already
served two terms in the legislature.
North Branch has had virtually foul
members in the past 20 years.
We have not a word to say against
Mr.. Horton. But Mr.. Walker is a
representative farmer and, to say the
least, in point of ability is the equal
of Mr.. Horton.
We think, in all fairness, western
Isanti county is entitled to the
representative this year, especially sc
when we have such all excellent can
didate as Mr.. I. F. Walker.

chickens opened and many sports
man arose before the cock announced
the dawn Of day to hasten to the
stubble fields. Some went forth in
automobiles, others in horse-drawn
vehicles, and some trudged into the
country on foot. The slaughter was
frightful in some sections while in
others not feather foated in the

those who went out with guns and
dogs did not return empty handed
