was a dog-tooth violet shooting It's
stars and there was trillium blazing
like 'burning bush" made purple
with sacrificial blood.
Here indeed was religious atmos-
phere. But the whole panorama was
preaching the gospel OF expression.
Everything was seeking sell, express
sion. Here for instance was a wild
rosebud leaning away from the
shrubbery and unfolding its ruddy
lips to be kissed by the sun. Express

God had no place for suppression IN
His divine plan. No asperity of the
hyper-enthusiastic reli g onist was
here. But for my souls health no
human discourse could equal this SER
mon of the woods. No man-built
edifice could duplicate this sabbatlcal
hush. No mortal choir could voice
paeans as sublimely beautiful as
these organs of the winds and praise

FLY PREVENTION RULES.

IAN ounce of prevention is
worth a pound of cure" This
is the time to use all means for
the prevention of the spread of
flies. Begin early and then keep
everIast,nsly at it. The vigilant
fly will use every opportunity
that he eets-remember that.
Here are several "don'ts" that
will aid in fighting the fly:
Don't dine at hotel or res
taurant where flies are tolerated.
Don't allow flies in your house.
Don't permit them near your
food, especially milk.
Don't buy food where flies are
permitted.
Don't allow them in sick
room.
Don't allow them to crawl over
the baby or the nipple of it's
nursing bottle.
Screen every window and door
in your house and keep it up
until you start your furnace.
Have separate screen covers
over all exposed food.
Let cleanliness and cleanliness
and yet more cleanliness be your
motto all summer long.

IN THE HOME OF JANE adams

That Illinois, the home Of Miss
Jane Adams, should be the first great
state east of the Mississippi to try
woman's suffrage will not surprise any
one. The example of one great wom-
ana woman who has not only
preached and argued, but done great
work besides-is worth dozen pleas
or parades and an infnity of bombs.
What will be the final result few
will care to predict. The present law,
apparently driving coach and four
through the state constitution, really
whips merrily and ingeniously around
it. The women of Illinois still cannot
vote for the officers named in that
document-including the important
posts of governor, United States sena-
tor and state legislators. They can,
however, mark the ballot for presiden-
tial electors, mayors, aldermen and
certain minor officers.
Thus the gain for suffrage is an i'm
portant one and the law should fur
nish a highly significant test of the
whole movement. Illinois is in most
respects an Eastern state. 1t contains
the second largest city in the country,
and a city possessing large foreign
population. The manner in which
women vote in Illinois and the effect
of suffrage upon them and upon the
government will give evidence upon
which the entire East can act. Coupled
with California, the example of Hi
nois may we'll be decisive for OF
against the whole movement

NETCHER MAKES
THAW GETAWAY
Dashes Into Passing Auto as
Rice and Old Shoes are
Prepared for Him.

Young Lochinvar, who "came out Of
the west" and bore away his bride
from the midst Of her hostile rela-
tives had nothing on Arthur Netcher.
Mr.. Netcher was married last We'd
nesday at Fessenden. The bride being
a we'll known young lady Of that town,
and Mr. Netcher being a stranger, the
friends Of the young lady naturally
felt that the couple should have a
real send off.
Rice, old shoes, tin cans, COW bells,
ETC.. had been collected in large quan.
titles, and the indications were. that
the happy pair would have a strenu-
Gus time before they got out Of town.
But MI. Netcher proved to be. equal
to the occasion. An old friend of the
bride was persuaded to invite her out
for a last automobile ride shortly aft
er the ceremony.
After q short ride into the country
the machine returned to town, and az
1t passed the residence Of the brides
parents. going at a thirty mile clip,
Mr.. Netcher made a sudden sprint and
a flying leap, and landed safe in the
tonneau.
One Of his pursuers managed to
reach the foot board Of the flying car,
but a push from MI. Netcheris strong
right arm sent him rolling in. the, dust.
and Mr.. and Mrs. Netcher were driven
safely to Harvey, where they caught
the o line train.

COUNTY FARMERS
ARE WELL FIXED
Mayor Says They are Better
OFF Than Those in Other
Sections of the State.

That the farmers Of Grand Forks
county are better Off al present than
the farmers in any other part Of the
state Is the opinion Of Mayor M. r.
Murphy,
Mr.. Murphy said today that the stat
istics which he had collected in con-
nection, with his farm loan business,
indicated that in the southern part Of
the county more than eighty per cent
Of the farmers were entirely free from
debt.
In the northern portion the proper
ton was not quite SO large. All
through the county the conditions APP
pear to be unusually good financially.
In no other county Of the state, de-
clared Mr.. Murphy. can be found SO
large a proportion Of farmers who are
not only out of debt, but are also put
ting money in the banks annually.
Mr.. Murphy said that one month
more Of the present dry weathe- was
all that was needed to put the entire
county on easy street.

Of CURRENCY
BILL ARE WELL PLEASED
CONTINUED from Page ~

This is another distinct triumph for
the people. n without which the
government issue of the money would
be largely a barren victory. The
third provision in this bill, which l
regard as of the first Importance, is
the one permitting state banks to
share with national banks the advant-
ages of the currency system proposed.
These three provisions are. to my
mind, of such transcendent import
ance that / am relatively but little
concerned as to the details Of the bill.
I do not mean to say hat the details
are unimportant. but whatever mis-
takes may be made in details can be
corrected easily and wrong
step in the matter of principle would
be more difficult to retrace. I take 1t
for granted that no one who Is really
in favor of the bill will permit a diff
ference of opinion on a matter Of de-
tail to lead him to j%eopardize the bill.
The papers have. in a few cases.

senting views which were alleged to
be mine. I do MOI know to what ex-
tent these reports may exaggerate

the details.
IF my opinion has influence with
any one who is called upon to act on
this measure. I am willing to assume
full responsibility for what 1 do when
I advise him to stand by the president
and assist in securing the passage of
this measure at the earliest possible
moment. l am sure that the presi-
dent will be ready to join in making
any change in detail that can be
made. to advantage, and being sure Of
his singleness Of purpose I am willing
to leave to future action the correc-
ton of any provision which he may

she found that she had only enough
to take the little party as far az Grand

At least this was nearer Glasgow
and she decided to continue the jour-

she could support herself here until
help came from the brother.

cent and the children were begging
for food. She herself had not eaten
for twenty-four hours.
The unfortunate woman broke
down. Finally n Of her fellow pas
sengers came to her and asked what
was the matter,
Collection Is Taken.
Mrs. Wilson sobbed out her story.
The other passenger was moved and
told the story to others.
Soon a collection was being taken
up. Before the train pulled out for
the west, tickets for Glasgow, and a
small sum In ash were handed to
Mrs. Wilson.
Unable to believe in her good for
tune at first, her tears were soon
changed to tears of Joy. and with hope
once more strong in her heart, she
continued on her journey to her new
home in the west.
