What the Hair Tells.

Character, according to one VINO
has spent much time in the study of
the subject, is more easily discerni-
BILE by close observation Of the hair
than by noting the expression of the
face.
1T has been said that the finer the
hair the gentler the BIRTH, and 1t is
certainly true that those who arc
born to the purple are often remark
able for the soft, silky texture of the
hair.
Lusterless black hair denotes a
Jealous disposition and treacherous
temperament. In nine cases out Of
ten, the lighter the color of the hair
the more sensitive is the owner to
criticise and the more quick to fee
real or fancied injuries. The posses
sor of brown hair of good depth OF
color and firm texture is usually dis
tinguished by good Judgment, a high
sense of reasoning power, and plenty
of common-sense.
Girls with red hair, though often
over-impulsive, are generally strictly
honest and truthful, show fair
amount Of commonsensc, and. as q
rule, are the brightest, sunniest In
dividuals in existence.

The Strapped Instep.
Iave Won slender ankles?


Does your instep arch?
If you are gifted like Cinderella
then the new footwear is for you
For unstrapped insteps are out OF
fashion.
All evening slippers have some sor'
of a strap arrangement on the instep.
? Unfortunately these iaddish slip
perse serve to give a clumsy look,St ~
the foot and ankle.
Number three double A are the
dainty proportions necessary for the
fad. ~
But women who do not fear the
aspersion Of thick ankles may indulge
in the ribbon-laced cothurn.
This has crossed straps over the
instep.
Several strands of ribbon are
wound around the ankle and leg
More becoming to the average foo
are the buttoned strap slippers.
These give the smart effect with
out breaking the line Of instep AM
ankle.
which suggest the laced cothurn IN
daintier guise.

A Dangerous Law.

The Kahn act has for its purpose
the protection of foreign exhibitors
against the piracy of the designs,
trade marks and inventions disclos-
cd in their exhibits at the approach
ing Panama Exposition at San Fran
cisco, says Leslie's Weekly. That
this. purpose is in accord with the
sentiments of the American public,
including our manufacturers, there
can be no doubt. 1t was represent
ed that without such a law foreign
manufactures would not exhibit.
Everybody desires the success of the
exposition. Judging from develop
ments since the passage of the act,
Congress in It's anxiety to aid the ex-
position gave little attention to the
scope of the bill or the possible eff
feet of its provisions on American
interests.
: The, act provides that any proprie-
tor of foreign certificate Of protec-
ton for anything imported for ex-
hibition and exhibited may have
protection in this country from the
time such thing is brought into the
exposition grounds to three years be-
yond the date of the closing of the
exposition. 1t makes it unlawful for
any other person to copy, initiate, re.
produce or republish the thing and
provides that any person Infringing
shall beliable for all kinds Of penal
ties, including loss of property, fine
and Imprisonment. These provisions
arc irrespective of the prior rights
of the American public to the free
enjoyment Of the same things. The
act provides for no defense whatever
The possibility of Matchmaking
schemes, litigation and lossu nder
this act is regarded seriously by the
American manufacturers and Others
who have studied its provisions and
II movement is on foot to secure an
amendment TO 'confnG the act to It's
original purposes.

equally inspired authorities and mouth
pieces of Christ. Thus the doctrine Of
Apostolic Succession was gradually es-
tabllshed. Jesus prophesied Of these,
describing them as false apostles,
(which say they are apostles and are
not" but do lie. Revelation 2:2.) AS
the bishops received credit as being
living Apostles, the inspired words OF
Jesus and The Twelve Apostles whom
He appointed took second place, and
with the masses. Bible study ceased as
wholly unnecessary.
Upon this foundation, tho great Ad-
versary built, item by item, the ter
rible doctrines of purgatory and of
eternal torture. When finally, in the
Sixteenth Century, the Bible again
began to be consulted, Satan so work

The assembly hall of the new higf,
school building vas Comfortably web
filed Tuesday evening by an audience
assembled to witness an entertain
ment given by the primary pupils for
the benefit Of piano fund. Some rty
little tots, under the guiding hands
OF their two teachers, Misses Pay
den ard Abel, furnished the enter
tainment, and right we'll did they en-
teri in. There was mixture of girls
=snt boys, the former being in big
major ty. But Notwithstanding that
handicap the future business men of
Sank Centre bore up well did
their part nobly. The program con-
tanned 56 numbers and ranged from
solo and recitation through the diff
fsrent variations Of marches, dances,
gymnastic exercises and costume
sketches T. the full chorus. The nt-
tie people did excellently well and re-
fiected credit upon themselves and
their teachers. Each number W a s
greeted with enthusiastic applause.
Immediately following the opening
chorus the male quartet of the high
school gave selection and responded
to an enthusiastic encore. Misses
Title Book and Gladys Brecount

young fly starts out on its deleteri us
mission of annoying the bald head
and carrying disease and death in on
its many-toed feet. He explained
many things about the fly and told
no W rapidly it multiplies. Prof.
Washburn asserted that healthy fe-
male fly, between the first of April
and the first of September Of an or
binary year, will produce progeny
numbering over two hundred sex
tilIions. He said any one could figure
the thing out for himself but that a
large piece of paper would be neces-
sary to contain the computations.
Prof. Washburn told how to get rid
of the fly, adding nothing to what
had already been said by others on
that subject, but simply placing the
facts before his audience once more.
He described fly traps but didn't say
anything about the one produced by
Hlllerud last year. Judging from the,
pictures Of fly traps thrown on his
screen. Prof. Washburn would evil
IDENTITY be overjoyed to grasp Hill
lerud's hand.
The last half hour of the evening
was devoted to throwing pictures of
flies and other insects upon a screen
by the medium of stereopticon.
This proved quite entertaini g.
Before the lecture began the high
school male quartet sang a selection.
The officers and members of the Ora
datim Club were present to greet the
public and seat them in the auditor
ium. T management of the affair
left nothing to be desired i'm this d.
rection.

Funds to be Used to Make the 1913
Fair the Best One Ever Held
on the Grounds

; The Stearns County fair has again
been the recipient of an appropria-
tion of $500. The commissioners, at
their regular March meeting in st.
Cloud Tuesday, set aside that amount
from the county funds to assist the
fair. Last year they made similar
appropriation.
The action of the commissioners is
duly appreciated by the management
OF the fair. The commissioners take
the same broad view of the matter
that they did last year, namely. that
the fair is county institution OF
benefit to the whole county and that
whatever helps the fair helps all.
The money was we'll expended last
year and will be equally well expend-
ed this season.
Tie appropriation Was made at the
request Of q committee of the fair as

Mayor John n, MeGibbon; DIR. r, F,
Hennemann, president of the COM.
mercial Club; and f. A. Richards.

and remained all day. They laid
their request befole the commission

missioner J. IT, Garfield had done
some work on the proposition before
and it all bore fruit.
The same committee also appeared
for the Commercial Club to lay before
the board request that the public
road between Melrose and Sank Gen.
ire be improved the present season.
This matter was talked over inform
ally and the board expressed a will
tngness to push the matter as soon
as 1t appears just what the legislature
is going 10 do relative to the build
Ing Of public highways.
The committee also asked for and
received from the commissioners an
appropriations OF $500 to assist the
GA. r. men in the prop otisery-
ance of Memorial Day. A similar
