GOING DOWN THE RIVER
Ex-Governor Upham Win Make a
Winter Voyage,

The Stevens Point Journal states
that Ex-Governor Upham of Marshtield
is preparing to leave soon on a contem-
plated winter voyage, starting from
DePere in his newly built boat, at a
cost of over 81, 900, and traversing the
several rivers until reaching the gulf.
The vessel is elegantly equipped with
modern appliances and 60-horse
power engine. 1t is 90 feet long and
copper rivited, thus assuring safety
and durability, for service in both
salt and fresh water, Mr.. Upham
will be accompanied on his water trip
by Mr.. Quinn, an old classmate at
West Point.
A first class chef and an engineer
have been engaged. The journey is
to be one solely of pleasure and recre-
alton. They will just loaf along,
stopping wherever and whenever they
choose and staying as long as they
wish to. Two routes are open to
them. They may go via Chicago and
the drainage canal and Illinois river,
or they may go up the Fox river to
Portage and down the Wisconsin riy-
er to the Mississippi.

1t seems that the advantage of hav-
ing telephone connection between
ones house and place of business has
its ponding disadvantages which
is liable to counteract in a great de-
gree its usefulness. During the
thunder storm of Saturday last the
wife of one of the proprietors of one
of these lines who lives on Fourth
street became frightened and sought
to summon her husband home by
means of the telephone; but she had
no sooner attempted to use it than
she received a shock which nearly
struck her SenSeleSs while her brother
in-law was compelled to drop on the
floor quite suddenly and Unexpectedly
while attempting the same feat.
Owners of other lines experienced
like difficulties from electric currents
although no serious danger resulted.
The shock is said to be about the
same as if a healthy mule had allowed
his after part to become animated.

Y. N. c. A. GYM, CLASSES
LARGE.

The Y. M. G. A. gymnasium classes
this year exceed all previous years in
that every class has thus far had a
large turnout on each of its floor
days and that there is not one class
which is too small but all one Just
the right size Mr. Starke's new
method of carrying ON the gym work
has proven very successful in every
class. Juniors, Intermediates, seniors,
working boys and business men like
it very much and attend reg
ularly. The size of the Junior
class has been made so large by the
recent membership campaign that it
is thought there will have to be
some change and new class to be
called the "junior C'' may be organ
izeG. There are two junior classes
now, junior B and junior A. Z. W.
Brandenburg will probably take the
younger boys out of these two classes,
putting them in this new midget"
organization. There will only be one
meeting week for the midgets, but
on account of this the membership
for the younger Junior G boys will be
little lower than the regular junior
dueS.

SAVE FRUIT TREES.
Simple Precautions Told That viii
Protect Trees From Winter and
Troubles.

In order that the orchards of the
state be safely protected from win
ter killing and the inroads of mice
and rabbits, il is necessary THAT a
few simple precautions be taken at
once to insure the protection of the
trees during the coming winter.
Sprays of lime sulphur, while they
may repel the rabbits and mice for a
short time, are not recommended by
horticuturists of the College of Agri-
culture of the University of Wis
cOnSin because they are not lasting
and require too frequent applications
during the season. Simple guards
against rabbits, such as wrapping
we'll the trunks of the trees with gun
ny sacking, rags, etc, and tying
securely with cord, or the placing of
lath around the smaller trees, are
common and cheap methods.
Wire netting and veneer are also
used extensively for this purpose, the
former being better because it can
be left on thruout the summer. In
roads of mice may be forestalled
after snowstorm by tramping down
the snow for several feet around the
tree and packing it close to the
ground, which prevents the mice
from creeping TO the roots of the trees
underneath the snow banks. If tar
paper is used to wrap trees it is ad-
visabe 10 remove it early in the
spring, for when left on too long it
adhereS to the bark, causing injury.
Various materials are frequently
recommended for applying to the
bark to keep the rabbits from girdl-
ing the trees. One which is very
frequently right at hand is the Wis
cera of freshly killed rabbits or other
small animals, which may be Smeared
upon the trunk and branches. 1t is
usually necessary to repeat this oper-
alton two or three times during the
winter months i'm order to give thor
ough protection. Poisoned bats are
sometimes recommended, but these
are rather risky.

CARING FOR COLDS.

Heat is responsible for more colds"
tu4n cold Colds are practically un-
known to arctic explorers and are un-
common to any outdoor workers who

The symptoms of cold are the
symptoms of irritation of the air

is lot more irritating than cold,
snappy air. Fever is sign Of germ
infection. Germs are always present

Avoid Sedstive Cough Medicines

II YOU want to contribute directly
to the occurrence of capillary bronchi-
It's and pneumonia use cough medi-
cines that contain codine, morphine,
heroin and other Sedatiyes when YOU
have a cough or Geld. An expectorant
like Chsmberlain's Cough Remedy is
what is needed. That cleans out the
culture beds or breeding places for the
germs of pneumonia and other germ

cial program is combined with the
more ardious task Of planting trees.
However, II you can not find day

sum, but again the quality Of nego-
liability protected the innocent pur-
chaser, and the man who signed the
note had to pay It. He had signed
a note, and it having come into the
hands of an innocent third party In
due course of business, his liability
was settled.
So when you sign promissory
note, drawn in the familiar form
sixty days after date, for value re-
ceived, promise to pay to the or
der Of John Doe, the sum OF One
Hundred Dollars with interest at elk
per cent per annum-remember that
1t Is negotiable and 90 Is a great
deal like money in that itmay be free
ly passed from hand to hand by
simple Endorsement on the back. and
the man who comes by 1t honestly
has full rights against the person
who signs 1t.
In order to possess this quality Of
negotiablity-to be able to pass from
one to another by simple Endorsement
giving to the person receiving It
these superior rights-a note must
conform to certain legal requirements
These are stated in the Negotiable
Instruments Law, uniform oct
which has been adopted In similar
form by practically all Of the states
In general the note must be In writ
ing and signed by the maker. Writ
Ing in It's legal sense includes print
ing, Autographs, ETC.; and the signa-
ture may be an abbreviation or O.
mark" Further, to be negotiable
it must contain an unconditional pro-
misc to pay sum certain In money.
There must be no 'if' about the
promise to pay. Also 1t must be to
pay money and not potatoes or nails.
II you are having the house shingled
and want to prevent the negotiating
OF a note you may give 80 that NO
one may secure from 1t better rights
than the carpenter to whom You give
it, you may do so by stating In the
note that you promise to pay upon
condition that the barn Is shingled
in accordance with the agreement.
To be negotiable a note must be
payable on demand, or at fixed or
determinable future time. Naming q
future date for payment, ct course,
fixes the time. So, too, 1t IL regard
ed as a fixed time If payment 10 to
be made at the hEcceening OF an
event that Is certain to occur. Sixty
days from date Is a determinable fu-
ture time. Further, ut must be pay
able to order or to bearer, these
words of negotiability being neces-
sary that the instrument may pos
sess that quality. So notes are
written pay to the order Of John
Smith" and not just pay to John
Smith,"
A note lacking the above require
ments of negotiability may still be
good contract enforceable between
the original parties according to it's
terms. But il the note be not nego-
liable and the man who made 1t has
been swindled, he may make this de-
tense against the person to whom
he gave 1t.
A person who intends to bind him
self by the note signs simply his own
lame. But mistakes are made by
agents who do not intend to bind
themselves. personally, but only their
principals. Do not sign John Jones.
Agent for Samuel Smith," for that
will make John Jones personally
liable; but Sign Samuel Smith. by
John Jones, Agent" A somewhat
different rule prevails In the case
of public officers for one acting in a
public capacity may sign his own
