We wish to call the attention Of our
readers to the change in the Illinois
Central trains which went into effect
on Sunday, April Goth. The Chicago
limited, going east and formerly called
No. 2, is changed to No. II and in
stead of leaving here at 1887, will
leave at 1905 p. m. No. s, Chicago
special, daily, going east at 1902 p. M,
is changed to No. IA and leaves Den
ison at 1857 a. m. These trains are
both local trains now and stop at all
stations between Omaha and Fort
Dodge. No. 1, Chicago maha limited,
daily, westbound at SAB a. M, has
been changed to No. II, and will leave
here at $40 a. m. This train will al.
so make all stops between Fl. Dodge
and Omaha. No. I, St. Paul and
Omaha express, at 1:25 p. M, has
been changed to No. 10 and will leave
Denison at 1913 p. m. Bot No. 81,
eastbound, and No. 81, westbound,
have been taken off. Owing to mis-
take both of these trains appear in
the Review time table this week,
though they are discontinued. Re-
view readers travelling on the I. c.

The students of school No. 5, Jack
son township, have a very original
plan of preparing their luncheon.
Each student brings, besides his reg
ular luncheon, few eggs, cocoa and
milk, which are cooked on the stove
in the school room, giving them a
warm MONDAY meal instead of the
usual cold lunch. Each day differ
ent set of girls do the cooking, CIV
ing them all an idea as to how it
should be done. This is an excellent
feature and worthy of commentator.

sHUN LOOSE SHOES.
They Give the Feet a. Much Trouble
az the Pinchina Kind.


az the Pinehing Kind.
Seven persons out Of ten suffer eX-
cruciating pain at one time or another
with their feet. A single corn no lar
ger than grain Of sand can take all
the snap and vitality right out o. you.
Two-thirds of modern foot troubles
are due to the fact that almost every
one-man, woman and child-wears
shoes too loose. The shoe itself may be
correct as to size and shape, but it is
not fastened tight at the only point of
cOntrOl-namely, the instep.
When you set your foot upon the
floor or pavement in the act of walk
ing the shoe adheres, and if it be loose
" fastened over the instep the foot
pushes down into the toe of the shoe.
At certain spots on the foot this slip
ping causes friction. These spots are
the sc!es of the feet, the tops, ends and
inner sides Of the toes, the great and
little toe joints and occasionally even
the back Of the heel.
When the friction thus caused is con-
tinucd hour after hour and day after
day one or more Of these spots are al
most sure to become inflamed and sore.
A slight thickening, called "callOuS.'
is formed. AS the friction and pres
sure 60 on the resulting callOus may
thicken up unevenly. Then it is called
a corn.-Woman's Home Companion.

Cost of Bad Highways.

Louisville Times: The highways
committee of the Civic and Commerce
association of Minneapolis has been
looking into the cost of bad roads. In
the trade district of Minneapolis,
which is $50 square miles, it found
that the loss, due in part to smaller
loads. to slower progress and inability
to reach the market when prices were
at their best and to the yea andstear
ON wagons and teams caused by bad
roads, amounted to $6OS,00O for the
year 1911. The loss to each farmer in
the district for that ear amounted
to $50, that is. $40 for each acre
farmed, amounting to IL per cent on
his total investment.
If such are the figures for the trade
district of Minneapolis, what would be
the showing in Kentucky where, ac-
cording to a federal court expert, the
system of road working is the same as
that used in England in the days of
Elizabeth? -s .,

John Lindquist Quenehsd His Thirst
Last Night With About a Pint.

Last night John Lindquist, one of
Moorhead's best known citizens and
one of the earliest settlers, either pur-
posely or accidentally drank about a
pint of wood alcohol from a bottle in
the basement of his house about 9
o'clock, the time bet reached home
after spending the greater part of the
day down town. The act became
known very quickly and doctors were
Immediately on hand to give what re-
lief they could. The poison was quick
ly removed by means of a stomach
pump, but Mr. Lindquist was serious
ly injured internally.
The doctors in charge reported this
afternoon that the patient had been
taken to the Northwestern hospital,
where he was still in an unconscious
state. 1t could not be stated this aft
ernoon whether there will be fatal re-
suits or not. The friends of Mr.. Lind
quist cannot understand his reason
for h drinking of the stuff which is
said to have been purchased by him
last fall.
