New Guide Board Law Should be of
Concern to Town Officials.

Chapt-r 402 laws of Wisconsin
passed at the last session of the

BERLIN'S USE OF PERFUME
Tons of Face Powder, Scent, Dye and
Pomade Used Daily in

Berlin.-Berlin daily use of face
powder cold cream, scented toilet wa
ter, and other toilet accessories has
been set forth in tons and pounds by
a local newspaper, and the results are
striking
Three-quarters of a ton of face pow
der and $50 pounds of black and brown
eyebrow pencils are used daily in the
city, according. to these statistics.
Seven hundred pounds of cold cream
are the figures for one day, and the
Berlin women-One assumes that it is
the women-require 400 sticks of red
lip pomade every "a hours.
Hair bleaching has practically died
out, but the sale of hair dyes is in
creasing, especially to elderly men,
says the report. Scented toilet waters
and bath essences to the total of four
and one-half tons are disposed of in
Berlin daily. Rose remains the IA

Dairying in Wisconsin Better Than
Gold Mining.

Prof. E H. harrington, Of the
College of Agriculture Of the Uni
versity Of Wisconsin, makes some
startling comparisons when he shows
that the worth of Wisconsin, dairy
products for one year is greater than
all the gold mined each year in Cali
fornia, Colorado and Alaska COM
bined. Almost one hundred million
dollars worth of butter produced this
year while in 1911 the entire United
States including Alaska produced
only $96, $50, 900 worth of gold. More
over, he shows that the Wisconsin
dairymau lives in comfortable home,
eats three square meals a day and
has access to all sorts of amusements,
while the gold miner has to put up
with all kinds of pri Vations. danger
and discomfort Farming and dairy
ing may seem a monotonous and hum
drum method of livelihood, but when
it comes to monotony gold mining
hasn't many thrills as at present
known, and its results are precarious,
whereas these from dairyiDg in Wis
corsin are almost sure.
Dairying does not exhaust the soil
fertility, and there will always be a
good demand for milk, butter and
cheese The dairy expert further
points that since 1896 the dairy farms
have doubled in value per acre and
the market prices of cheese and butter
have more than doubled. During
that time prices for city milk have
risen from 81 cents to 81 IS per hun
dred pounds Milk proddcts of Wis
consin, he says, have taken a rapid
advance every few years between 1890
and 1910. The first step brought the
value of milk products from 81 mil
lion dollars in 1890 to Sc million in
1895 In 1900 the valuation was 40
millions, in 1905, 60 millions, and in
1910. so millions.

MANNED BY BUFFALO
Elephant Hunters Experience in
the Belgian Congo.
Shoots Animal When 1t Appeared In
Range and Follows Quarry Into
Jungle Only to Be Set Upon
and Nearly Killed.

London.-A terrible experience with
buffalo recently befell a wellknown
elephant hunter in the Belgian Congo.
He was after elephants when the ami
NAL appeared within range, and, con-
trary to his usual custom, the hunter
fired. The shot took effect and the
buffalo disappeared into the jungle.
The hunter, who is a dead-shot, and
expected to find his quarry dead, fol-
lowed. Suddenly without the slight
est warning, the wounded beast
charged, believing with rage and pain,
from behind some bushes so close at
hand that the hunter had no time to
raise his rife and fire.
Throwing aside the rife, he sprang
into the air and clutched at branch
of a tree beneath which he was stand
ing, and by drawing up his legs just
managed to escape the buffalo's horns.
But worse was to come. The buffalo
turned and surveyed it's foe hanging
helplessly overhead and Immediately
bounded into the air, it's terrible horns
searching madly for it's victim.
The unfortunate man could climb no
higher, for the tree was a small one,
and one of the horns caught him on
the thigh, ripping it open like knife.
Again and again the beast sprang at
the man, and again and again the re-
lentless horns tore at his thigh and
leg.
With wonderful strength and cour-
age the hunter bore about fifteen ag-
onizing moments Of this torture, until
at last the bullet took effect and the
animal dropped dead on the ground

HOW MAUREL LEARNED TO ACT
Friend of Great Barrytone Told Him
of His Shortening, to Very
Good Effect.

LOndon.-The secret Of Chaliapine
(the Russian singer who has been so
successful in London) seems to be the
same as that of Maurel, one of the
first Of the great modern operate
barrytones.
Maurel began as star singer in the
style. One day when he was prac-
ticing in his hotel he received a visit
from a painter who lived in stdio at
the top Of the hotel The painter
came to say how much he had enjoyed
the singing Of the great barrytone.
your voice enters my room like
ray of sunshine. 1 have bought seat
for tomorrow to hear you in William
Tell"
Maurel did not see the painter again
for some time and when he met him
in the street some weeks afterward
ne asked him if he had been to evil
liam Tell" The painter seemed very
cold about it. He complained that
Maurel had not given the impression
of the character of the fearless hunt
er." Maurel took this to heart and
from that time studied the art of act
ing until it was said of him that he
was IAN artist who could act and paint
with his voice"
Verdi said Of Maurel, after the first
sings his best he makes one forget he
is singing" 1t seems to be the same
with Chapiapine.

BABY WITH A RARE DISEASE
Kansas City Physicians Puzzled by
Strange Case-Very Young
Child.

Kansas City.-A case rare even to
the older physicians Of Kansas is at.
tracing the attention of members OF
the resident and visiting stats at a
hospital there. A baby one month old
has suffered half its little life with
streptOcoccicO polyarthitis, which
translated into less technical terms
means an Inflammation of joint cava-
ties caused by germs known as strep-
tococci.
The disease produced in joint cavi-
ties by these germs is not so rare
among older persons, and usually is
not very difficult to cure. There is an
anti-streptococcic serum which is gen.
orally used with good effect, but in
this case the wonder of the physicians
is the age Of the infant.
Five places are infected Two weeks
ago the disease started in the baby's
right shoulder and spread to the knee,
wrist, the jaw and place on it's head.
The baby has been in hospital only
one week, but it is much improved,
and there has been no further spread
of the disease. Physicians say it has
fighting chance of recovery if it can
stand the long strain of eradicating
the germs with the serum.
1t is not known when infection was
started and no trace of the disease has
been found in the infants parents. The
baby no longer cries and it's tempera-
lure is about normal. 1t nurses regu-
larly and is in all respects, outside it's
strange and unaccountable disease, en-
tirely normal.

High School Fair Works Improvement.

That the plan of holding of rural
school, fairs, similar in plan aud
purpos3 to that annually held at the
Livingston high school fair, is
worthy Of being much more general
ly adopted as a further means of
strengthening rural life and improv
ing the quality of rm products and
live stock is the belief Of J. e. Fuller
and L. 5. Craber of the College of
Agriculture of the University Of Wis
consin, who acted as judges of live
stock and grain respectively at the
fair, recently held at this Grant
county school. There was a large
crowd in attendance and entries Ia all
departments were we'll filled. Per-
checons and Guernsays, the two
favorite breeds in that locality. were
strongly in evidence, and the com
petition was sharp.
Both Mr.. Fuller and Mr.. Craber
believe, however. that such an event
could be improved by a more active
participation in the live stock and
grain growing exhibitions by the high
school boys themselves. While they
realize that it is necessary for profes-
sional breeders to support such a show
in order t. insure its complete sue.
cess, strong competition among the
young men and boys Of the community
is much to be desired.
