TOT DIES FROM DRINKING
EYE WASH FOR MEDICINE
Takes Bottle from Place Upon
Bureau.

Mistaking a bottle of eyewash for
his soothing syrup caused the death
OF 2-year-old Franklin Ford at the
home of his parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
Duncan Ford, at 3S4 New street.
Saturday he clambered upon a bu-
reau and reached a bottle of eyewash
from the mantle nearby. His mother
found him drinking from the bottle.
She was not alarmed. as there was
NJ poison mark on the bottle.
Later. however, the youngster be-
came Ill and was rushed to the City
Hospital. Antidotes were adninis-
tered, but the child died yesterday.
He was a great favorite in the
neighborhood and several of his little
playmates, all under years of age,
Clipped in" their pennies and
bought d floral piece for him.

HELP TO FILL THE

Nine Days Left to Show You

Continued from First Pageo

caller, "and a nice Christmas dinner
too"
Later the leader of the Bible class
in a well-known church came to the
office. He had heard of the Empty
Stocking Club plan, he said, and had
mentioned it to his class yesterday
They had seized on it with avidity
and were prepared to fill at least
fifteen or twenty stockings.
The mems club of a suburban
church has agreed to fill twice as
many stockings, and every mail
brings letters and coupons from per-
sons who are willing to assist in the
work. However, there still remain
the 200 unanswered appeals, and this
number may be increased before the
day is over.
Only Nine Days Left.
The Evening Star has never
launched charitable project that has
not proved a complete success. It's
readers have always responded gener-
ously when asked to contribute to
funds for stricken families, fire suffer-
ers and others who have needed help.
The Empty Stocking Club is as
worthy as any of these, and should be
supported just as generously.
Christmas is coming fast. It's only
nine days away now. Why not de-
vote an hour or SO one of those days
to visiting one of the Evening Stars
Santa Claus writer's and purchasing
for them what they ask?
A little time and few dollars is a
mighty cheap price to pay for the per-
sonal satisfaction you'll derive from
doing this best of good deeds.

spiritual sovereignty of the Sultan

the Balkan states, and the free ad-
ministration by the Mussulmans of
their pious foundations in the Bal

To these conditions has now been
added the taking over by the Balkan
states of that part of the Ottoman
pubic debt corresponding to the ter
ritories which they annex, unless the
powers controlling the Ottoman debt
allow them to deduct that part from
the war indemnity imposed upon
Turkey, which would thus remain the

A Great PLAY.

Eugene Walters play, "The Wolf"
which comes to the Willmar opera
house, Wednesday, April 18th, might
be called poem play of pictures. 1t
is very seldom that one sees a play
that grips the interest and piques the
curiosity with it's first line. ''The
Wolf" does that. The curtain rises
on beautiful scene. It is Indian
summer in the Northern woods. Pines
and golden foliage mingle their light
and shade. A stream winds down the
avenues of cottonwoods. In the back
ground are the blue foothills. To the
right is the log house of McTavish,
with great tree in front Of it. IN
der tree sits B'Atiste, the Canuck,
putting at his pipe. In the porchway is
the gaunt form Of McTavish. He, too,
is smoking. The two men puff in sill
ence for a moment, while the auditor
takes in the perfect coloring perspec-
tive and grouping of the scene. Then
McTavish says, "You say that she
died, mona"
This is one Of Eugene Walters
strong points-begins his story with
the opening lines. He wastes no
time in unnecessary conversation and
he sticks to the point from curtain
to curtain.
Another Of these pretty picture
effects is in Act Three. Two men are
squatting in the foreground. Stand
ing, is the tall, 1.-THE, graceful figure
Of Jules Beaubien. Hilda stands
there an instant holding the paddle
like a spear, framed in the dark pine
and golden LEAKAGE color; with the
sunset reddening ominously about
her. One almost expects to hear the
wild cry Of the Valkyrie.
A little later comes the great and
intense scene Of the play. "The
Wolff is presented by an all-star
cast.

Four Requirements For Maximum
Corn Yield.

First: Good seed. The chief cause
Of a low yield Of corn is poor
stand. This is usually caused by
planting seed with low germina-
ton per cent. Seed corn should be
ear tested this year. Corn should
be pure bred variety and should be
graded before planting.
Second: Good land. For a maxi
mum yield of corn we should have
a deep, rich soil preferably a clover
sod, heavily MANFRED and fall plow-
ed.
Third: Good Care. Land should be
worked up early in the spring and
should be narrowed several times
before planting time. It should be
as mellow as garden when corn is
planted. Blind cultivation and cross
dragging just before corn comes up
is good. The first cultivation should
be deep, close to the rows and should
be given as soon as the rows can be
plainly seen. Later civilizations
should be shallow. Land should be
cultivated often enough to keep down
all weeds and at least after each
hard rain.
Fourth: The fourth requisite is q
good man. No man should hope te
secure maximum yield of corn un-
less he studies corn and does thu
right thing at the right time.

Goes Dry by Injunction Route.

The saloon at Louisburg was clos
ed by the sheriff last Monday. Citi-
zens had got out an injunction res
training the village council from
granting license. The injunction was
issued on the grounds that the sa-
loon is located less than 1900 feet
from the school house. AS the
school house is outside the village
limits the law requires that the dis
lance from any saloon shall be three
times as great as is required within
corporate limits.
As the vets and drys are very
evenly matched in strength, Louis
burg will probably remain dry as
the sentiment for the vets is not
strong enough to render any trick
cry. practicable. -Appleton Press.
