Pixies Peak but l did not go to the top
as do not like to tramp In foot OF
snow. Last summer In August a
married couple walked up Pixies Peak
and was caught in storm and both
froze to death.
After winding around over and
through mountains and eight or nine
tunnels, we at last reached the sum-
NIT 10000 IT up in the air. here we
had 10 minutes for lunch at high
altitude and high prices. The scenery
from here was very nice to a person
that do not have noun tains to see
every day. Next we came to the
Mines and when we got in among
them they made me think of the pra-
rie dog towns out in western South
Dakota. Holes were dug all over the
mountains sides from top to bottom.
One of the largest Mines (The Silver
Plume) was discovered by man who
traded it for bottle of boose, which
he drank up then started out again to
find another mine.

over the mountains, in some places
it was very narrow and you conld look

down many Thousand of feet, one mis-

sl.5o PER ANsum.
CALLED HOME.

Once more the death angel has en-
last and sweetest treasure, our
daughter Jean. 1t Is with anguish
unspeakable we pen these words. We
had hoped to keep our darling TO
cheer and comfort our declining days.
But God had willed it otherwise, and
while we know that He is love and all
His ways are right 1t Is hard to see
the heavenly sunshine through the
gloom that enshrouds us now In
babyhood Jean had the whooping
cough and almost slipped away from
us then. She has always been
delicate flower but so lovingly nur-
tured and tended we shut our eyes to
what we did not want to see and hop
ed on. On last December fourth her
twenty first birthday we were made
to realize what others had known be-
fore. Then the battle began and
more brave christian soldier never
struggled for victory than did our
darling. Every aid known to human
power was given her but without
benefit. Through all the days and
weeks that followed there was never
one word OF complaint. Sweet and
brave to the end ever concious of the
nearnesS of her God and as fearlessly
going His appointed way as she
entered into this life. II am SO happy"
was her most frequent expression.
She lived beautiful life and has left
sacred memory to all who knew
her. Our earthly home is desolate
but our three treasures are In their
heavenly home where they will meet
and greet us in the not very far away.
Florence Jean Eta Linn was born
in Parker, S. Dakota December fourth
1890, her parents moved to Canton
the following summer where she
since resided with the exception Of
four years spent In Hot Springs S. ID.
She was married September, 25,
1909 to Kinsey Kenneth Fobes, and to
this happy union daughter was
born who bears her mothers name,
Jean Linn Fobes. At seven O'Clock
Saturday morning April twenty
seventh, the sunshine flooded her
room and the birds outside warbled a
sweet welcome as her pure spirit
passed through the gates ajar
She was member OF the G. @.
Club Of Canton and the ST. Paul
Chapter of Daughters Of the Ameri-
can Revolution, st. Paul, Mimi. The
services at the home Sunday after
noon were conducted by Rev. Hunt,
brief and simple at her request. Her
last earthly resting place was bed Of
roses and sweet flower tributes OF
loving friends. 1t is with grief and
anguish we bow our heads to the
inevitable, but she was one OF Gods
sweetest and purest flowers and He
has called her home.
CARD OF THANKS.
To the many loving friends who so
kindly assisted us in the last hours OF
our loved ones earthly visit, we can
only extend our heartfelt, thank you,
and for the beautiful flow ers, tribute
of love, our hearts are filed with
gratitude.

DE LAVAL
CREAM SEPARATORS
Now Is the Time to buv


There is good reason to defer the purchase of DE
LAVAL cream separator until Summer. On the contrary
you may buy and half its cost meanwhile
Moreover, if can't conveniently pay cash you can buy
DE LAVAL machine such liberal terms that will actual
y pay for itself
AS to YOUR need of centrifugal separator if you have
the milk Of even single to you wasting
quantity and quality of product every day you go without
one This waste is usually greatest with cold weather and
cows old in lacation and it counts most of course when
butter prices high Then there is always the sweet
skm1nilk and saving Of time and labor in addition.
When comes to choice of separators DE LAVAL s-
periority is now universally recognized Those who know
buy the DE LAVAL to begin with Those who don't replace
their other separator with DE LAVAL thousands of
users do that every year. YOU already have some other
machine the sooner YOU exchange it for DE LAVAL the
better.
Why not start 1912 right in dairyng? TRY DE La
VAL machine for your own satisfaction if nothing else.

4 A crowd of six thousand dyed-in-
the-wool fanatics were damned into
the seats and cheered the partici-
pants. Kramer trailed the field to
nearly the last lap and then, riding
high on the board saucer, sprinted
down ahead of the field and covered
the mile In 2:37, slow time for such
a classy field Joe Fogler was second
and Gordon Walker third.

The release OF Ping Bodie by the
White Sox will be officially an
nounced, undoubtedly The fence
busters failure this year heralded
his return to the minors.
Although denied by Manager Stahl,
some deal may be arranged whereby
Buck" OBrien will join soIle other
club. The spit baller did not come
up to expectations in Boston, chiefly,
SO Denver players assert, because
Stahl and McAleer tried to handle
him rough-shod, instead OF using
diplomacy. Properly handled O'Brien
is one OF the best in the business.
Manager Jim Callahan, or re White
Sox, is ready to trade anything or
anybody save Ed Walsh and himself,
even the bat boy, to rebuild his team.
All Cal needs to satisfy the fans is
two or three pitchers to help Walsh,
an outfielder or two, catcher and a
couple of infielders Otherwise he will
stand pat.

the Nationals, near champions, will at
tend, to tell how he killed a buck
deer with rock-Giff throwing a
floater which the deer misjudged and
in swinging on it too soon, broke his
neck-and to make trade or two.
Grit wants an outfelder who can hit,
but will have hard shedding. He Is
too shrewd for his fellow managers to
hand lemons to and lemons are the
only baseball fruit ripe just now.
The league may pass resolutions
endorsing Secretary Rob McRoy of
the worlds champions, whose dismiss
sal has been demanded by Mayor
Fitzgerald of Boston as the result of

October.
One thing may be expected the
business meeting will be cut and
dried, because Johnson will tell the
magnates what to do and they will
do it. Which is one reason the
