die down every year after bearing

Father Andrai, French priest serv-
ing with the troops In Morocco.
He was busy in the hospital at
Laghouat when a young aeronaut,
Lieutenant Bregard, entered his room
and asked him IL it were possible for
him to come with him by aeroplane
in order to give the sacrament to a
dying officer who had been shot by
the enemy. The two were heartily
cheered by the soldiers when they de
scended in the French camp. The
wounded man when told he must die
had said: ITO die is nothing, but to
die without the consultations OF reli-
gion is sad"
Lieutenant Bregard had bent down
and whispered that he would fetch
priest by aeroplane. The dying man
was still alive when the priest ar
rived. He made his confession and
received the communion and few

FRESH AIR GIVES HEALTH.

This is the season when people be-
gin to complain about drafts and look
about to see whether they are catch
ing cold" The chances are that If
there isn't draft somewhere about
they are i'll danger of catching cold.
1t used to be supposed that all
colds came from exposure to cold
air or drafts So people had a horror
RI fresh air, and at the approach OF
winter sealed their houses up. Now
IT is known that colds are caused by
bacteria, just as diphtheria is, and
that most of them come from infec-
tions from foul air. Badly ventilat-
ed street cars, public halls and houses
are responsible for the large majority
of the colds.
To be sure, il is imprudent for
person who isn't in vigorous health
TO sit in a draft and become chilled
But il is much more imprudent for
him to sit in an unventilated room
Epidemics are much more prevalent
in winter than in summer chiefly be-
cause people seal themselves up in
the winter, while in the summer they
live in the open.
There is nothing like plenty of
fresh air to preserve health. If you
see to it that you have it day and
night you can laugh at winter.

fellows than we are wont to
believe them to be. Did you
ever consider that your com.
petitor had as good a right to
be here and try to make a liv.
ing at his business as you
have; that if a condition arises
that makes it impossible for him
toprosper it will also affect you
adversely: that he is, there
fore, your co-worker and not
your enemy. All this being

together and pull together for
better things, for a bigger and
better town. for more industries
and a better civic spirit.

WINDOW DISPLAYS

ONE of the very noticeable
differences between the smaller
cities and the larger ones is in
the matter of the attention
given to the attractive dressing
of shop windows. The pro-
gressive merchants of the larg-
er cities long ago learned that
the time and money spent in
artistic window displays
brought good returns. People
used to metropolitan ways find
much pleasure in studying shop
windows and this together
with the newspaper advertising
which the shop window sup
plements is the means by
which they keep informed as
to the many things which the
ever-changing market affords.
1t is by no means considered
provincial to show an interest
in window displays. They are
prepared for the purpose of at
tracing the eye and conveying
information.
There are a number of places
in this CITY where a little more
care in this particular would
add greatly to the appearance
. of the business district and
would make a better impress
sion on those who pass along
our streets, We do not care to
make pointed reference to
those who neglect the oppor-
tunities offered but it is certain
ly worth while to go to the other
extreme and pay just compli-
ment to two places which
would be a credit to a city much
larger than Bottineau. We re
fer to the Northwestern Jewel
ry company's store and the
Greengard Clothing and Shoe
Store. In both institutions
particular pains is taken to
make the window displays
artistic and in harmony with
the message contained in their
advertisements. Messrs. Shell
don and lGreengard deserve
a great deal of credit for their
progressive methods of mer-
chandising and their example
should be followed more gen.
orally. When it is we will have
a much better city than we
have today. This is true for
many reasons and not the least
of these is the fact that the
man who will take the trouble
to put up a good 'front.'" will,
also, as a matter of course, car
ry the same ideas through his
shop land out into the back
yard.
