LARGE FLY IN THE OINTMENT
Successful Candidate Should Have
Been Happy, but There Were
Reasons Why He Was Not.

IL suppose you're very happy, now
that you're elected mayor?"
well, l can't say that l am. 1
thought would be, but it hasn't work
ed out that way"
But you got such a splendid vote
It ought to make you feel happy tc
think the people have such confidence
in you"
THAT is cheering, of course. 1t is
fine to know that the majority of the
people believe in you. Still, I'm not
altogether contented."
81 can't understand 1t at all. Here
you've been elected to the highest
honor in the community; you have
splendid opportunities to do good
work; you may graduate from this po-
sition to broader service for the state,
and possibly from the state to the
nation. You ought to be happy If any
one is"
Il know 1t. But I'm not. The fact
is am up against it. | have four
political managers who did splendid
service for me, and each one demands
the same job. "-Detroit Free Press.

Preserve Puffs.

Take sufficient puff paste to make
the desired number. Cut and roll out
thin to about six inches in diameter.
Place on it, a little from the center, a
teaspoon of raspberry preserves,
allowing the top edges to lie back
from the front edge at least one.fourth
&c an inch. This folding forms half
circle. Wash with water or egg and
water, dust with powdered sugar, cut
few deep but short cuts across the
top. over the preserve. and bake The
preserve will show through the cuts.

italian Pot Roast, Tomato Sauce.

Begin by preparing the pot roas,
in the usual way. rubbing it we'll with
sifted -four and seasoning 1t with pep.
per and salt. Then brown it on all
sides in heated suet and add an onion
and a carrot. When these prelim.
inaries are over cover 1t with canned
tomatoes instead of water. II the to-
matoes are without much superfluous
Juice add some water. but they are
usually juicy enough. About half an
hour before taking up add the maca'
roni. The meat should simmer and
not boil.

Poetry and Music.

If had to live my life again | would
have made a rule to read some poetry
every week; for perhaps the parts of
my brain now atrophied would thus
have been kept active through use.
The loss of these tastes is loss Of
happiness and may possibly be inju-
rious to the intellect, and more prob
ably to the moral character, by en-
feebling the emotional part of our ma
ture.-Charles Darwin

CHILD'S FACE ALL RED SPOTS

632 N. 5th ST., Terre Haute, Ind
"My little nephew, boy of four
years, had breaking out on his face.
It was little red spots at first. then
he would rub and scratch and water
blisters would form, and wherever the
water would run another would come
until his face was covered with them.
He would cry and fret. His mother
got some medicine, but it did not do
any good. He would scream and cry
and say it hurt. We hardly knew him,
his little face was all red spots and
blisters. So l begged him to let me
put some Cuticura Ointment on them.
The next morning 1 made a strong
soap suds with Cuticura Soap and
washed his face in the warm suds.
The little blisters burst by pressing
the cloth on them. After / had his
face washed, put the Cuticura ONT
ment on and in a short time his little
face was all red and dry. kept using
the Cuticura Soap and putting on the
Cuticura Ointment and his face got as
well and it did not leave a scar He
was entirely cured in about one week
and a half" (Signed) Mrs. Arthur

TEA TABLE DELEGATES
IDEAS FROM SCOTLAND THAT
MIGHT BE APPROPRIATED.
Scenes and Edinburgh shortbread Are
Recommended by TraveIer-oat
Cakes and PlteaIthly Ban
nocks Also Are Good.

Something new in the way OF tea
and things" was discovered the other
day at a Scotch tearoom, where
scenes and genuine Edinburgh short
bread were being served, writes cor
respondent. There we're oat cakes,
too. and Pitcaithly bannocks as we'll.
The econe has all the virtue OF
the toasted English muffin as a tea
accessory" explained the Scotch lass
who makes these breads. And, In
addition, it isn't so likely to be soggy
The muffin has yeast in 1t. but the
scone is made without, as you will
seq from my recipe, which | brought
from Dunferline: One coffee cup OF
-four. one-quarter teaspoon Of salt
one-quarter teaspoonful of cream OF
tartar, one-half teaspoon OF soda
(smalD, one teaspoon of sugar.
Mix all the dry ingredients togeth-
er and then stir in enough butter
milk (about three-quarters of coffee
cup) to~make a soft dough. Turn this
out on a well-f1oured board and roll
lightly to about one-quarter inch In
thickness. Cut this in eight. pie fash
ion, and put on hot griddle. Do not
grease the griddle. Bake until brown
on one side, then turn over and bake
on the other. Turn only once.
"The Scotch shortcake is really a
cake. 1t looks like pie crust. but is
not so rich and Is sweeter. | cut the
dough with a knife into triangles, be-
cause ! think 1t rises better than
when it is shaped with cutter. In
the large pastry shop in Edinburgh
they roll the dough much thinner and
cut into small round shapes. They
are called there 'petticoat tails You
see, when Mary Stuart came back
from France she brought d number
of the French people with her. and
they called these little cakes 2ettis
gateaux' The Scotch people thought
they said petticoat tails and so they
have been known ever since"
Another variety of shortbread is the
Pitcaithly hammock. l suppose the
lady of Pitcaithly castle. in Perth
originated them, as all the great ladies
in early times made their own cakes
This is simply the shortbread with
nuts and any other good thing you
may happen to have on hand stirred
through 1t.
To make the ordinary shortbreat
take seven ounces of -four. one ounce
of rice flour, five ounces of butter anC
two ounces of castor sugar.
Work all this together with the
hands until 1t is soft and the butter
is we'll worked in. Make 1t into 6
round cake about one-half inch thick
pinch the edges together and prick
1t all over with a fork. This keeps
1t from rising Put it on a CREASED
paper on a fiat tin and bake in a slow
oven until 1t is a pale brown. One
hour or more is not too long to bake

Lime In Curtains.

When washing new curtains you
will generally find that they are full
of lime. A great deal of trouble may be
saved by soaking the curtains over
night in water in which little salt
has been dissolved. The salt draws
out the lime and makes the curtains
quite easy TO wash, without too much
rubbing and soap.

"TreIawney of the Wells"

Friday evening, May 16 at the Op-

School presented their class play en-
titled, "Trelawney Of the Wells" to a
packed house. Myrtle Porter, as
Rose Trelawney took the part Of the
leading lady and Roy Johnson as

English ce-chancellor and his sis
ter. The other minor parts were al
so we'll acted and altogether the
whole affair was success, thanks
to Miss Smiths ability as manag-
er.
The receipts which amounted to
$2l4 will undoubtedly be used by the
Seniors to some good purpose.
An amusing little incident occur
ed between the first and second acts.
While the Juniors were doing their
best to create q disturbance the re-
sourceful Seniors put it all over
them by leading across the stage a

| This City Makes Best Solution
Of Puzzle Picture.

The contest arranged for by the L.
A. Tjosvold Music Co., of this city,
came to a close May IL. Nearly three
hundred solutions were received and it
was no small task for the appointed
judges, Hon. l.. o. Thorpe, Atty. Chas.
Johnson and Mr.. A. e. Mossberg, to
decide which was the BEST Some con-
testants had used the dictionary and
listed many names without any refer
ence to picture, and others were elm
mated for other defects. Finally the
choice narrowed down to a few and it
was finally decided that the solution by
Richard Taylor best represented the
correct solution by word and sketch,
and the award was made to him. "Dick''
is the boy who sells the Curtis publica-
tions around town, and is we'll liked by
the readers Of the POST" "Journar' and
"Gentleman," who now congratulate the
boy on his good luck. He tells what he
did with his prize in a letter published
in an ad. on the first page of this pa
per. The L. A. Tjosvold Music Com
pany is presenting each contestant who
calls for it handsomely painted dish.
An interesting fact in this connection
is that fully 80 per cent of the solu-
tions received were on clippings cut
from the Willmar Tribune, something
for advertisers to think about.

Discoverer of the South Pole Here.

Capt. Roald Amundsen, the polar
explorer, came to Willmar on the
train from Watertown, S. D., last
Thursday afternoon. Among those to
meet him at the depot was liver As
paas, who in his young days made
seven annual trips to Spitzbergen in
quest Of polar game. He is 81 years
Of age but still hale and hearty.
Capt. Amundsen, the conqueror Of
the polar regions, evinced much in
terest in meeting the old walrus and
polar bear hunter. The Captain wore
light spring suit and no overcoat,
and is a striking personality.
His lecture at the Assembly Audi
torium was a treat. After seeing the
views and hearing the Captain ex-
plain the manner in which the south
pole expedition was successfully
carried out, one has very vivid idea
Of what such a trip means and the
thoro organization and preparation
needed.
The moving pictures were remark
able when one thinks of the fact
that they were taken in. the polar re-
gions and not faxed by some picture
concern. The passing Of the Gram"
thru the ice-bergs, the schools of
whales sporting in large numbers
like we may see suckers in the creek,
the antics Of the polar dogs, the
dancing penguins, seals crawling
over the ice absolutely fearless of
mans approach, the departure of
the sledge teams on the last stage
of the trip, all pictured very yividly
and better than words could posi-
bly, do the conditions that prevail in
a polar temperature.
Capt. Amundsen left on the night
train for Grand Forks.

MlNNEHAhS cADEMY /
BOARD OF EDUCATION
Swedish Mission Conference
Takes Steps 10 Open Their
New School.

The sessions of the Swedish Mis-
sion State Conference came to a
close with three large devotional and
evangelistic meetings last Sunday.
The afternoon and evening sessions
were held in the Assembly auditor
ium to accommodate the crowds.
Outside of the usual routine work
and doctrinal discussions the import
ant business Of the conference was
the appointment Of a Board of Edu-
cation to provide for the opening of
the Minnehaha Academy at Mime
apolis, the new wedish-American
institution of learning just being
completed near Minnehaha Falls.
The following were elected as such
board: Rev. A. E. Palmquist Of ST..
Paul, president; Rev. Nathaniel
Franklin of Minneapolis, secretary ;
Aaron Carlson, Minneapolis, treas
urer; Revs. C. F. Sandstrom and G.
G. Ellstrom Of Minneapolis; Rev. A.
j. Orman Of Kensington; Rev. A. w.
Franklin Of Pennock; Rev. N. Isaac
Nelson of Buffalo,; Messrs. A. M.
Nordstrom and S. A. Mattson Of
Minneapolis; Chas. Wallblom and E.
j. Stolpe Of St. Paul; Swan Ander-
son Of Willmar; F. w. Erickson Of
Duluth and Prof. D. F. Swenson Of
Minneapolis.
The conference confirmed the call
of Rev. Brunstrom Of jamestown, N.
Y, to become the president Of Min
nehaha Academy. The building will
be dedicated June 2l, during the ses-
sions Of the General Swedish Mis-
sion Covenant to be held at Mime
apolis. Best Of all, it is expected
that the building will be dedicated
free Of indebtedness. The structure
will cost 100000 without furnishings.
$4,000 have been raised during the
past year. Three years ago the
Northwestern Conference Of the Gov
enant took over the old school pro-
position of the Minnehaha School
Association. This included lots now
worth $4,000 and $1,000 in cash.
During the following year some
$1,000 were subscribed, and with the
good impetus given collections dur
ing the past year, it seems that there
will be no insurmountable difficulty in
clearing off the Indebtedness by the
time Of the annual meeting.
The following were elected as
chairmen of the different divisions OF
the Conference: Willmar Circle, Rev
A. w. Franklin; Dassel Circle, Rev
Fred Edquist; Buffalo-St. Cloud Cir.
Gle, Rev. N. Isaac Nelson; Kensing.
ton-Evansville Circle, Rev. A. J. Or.

School Matters Discussed.

The special school meeting last
Monday night drew about fifty voters
in spite Of the disagreeable weather.
The meeting was called for the pur-
pose Of ascertaining the wishes of
the district in regarding to meeting
the increasing demands for room.
Prof. G. A. Foster, President Rus
sci Spicer and Secretary Aug. Q.
Forsberg told Of the needs Of. the
district and H. S.. Peterson, 0. R.
Berkness and others asked questions.
The conditions confronting the
Board Of Education is over-crowded
rooms and no place to put the in
creasing number Of pupils. The
basement Of the Library building is
now used for the normal department,
and the number of pupils in grade
rooms run up to SIS to a room, when
IS to 40 is the normal number. Even
the high school room, which, when
erected a few years ago, was thought
to provide for the future needs for
many years is filling up to: it's full
capacity. The present seating ca
pacity is 1876 and the enrolment is
1856. With the annual increase in
sight it will not be long until there
will be less room in the high school
building for grade pupils. The Board
has suggested a substantial addition
to the Lincoln school house in the
east part Of the city. It is this part
Of town that is growing the faster
at the present time. Some doubt was
expressed by those present as to the
practicability of remodeling the pres
ent Lincoln building and expressed
themselves in favor Of a new build
ing. Finally on a motion for an ex--
preston Of those present as to
whether or not the Board Of Educa--
ton should prepare plans and sub
nit a proposition to the voters Of
the district at future meeting &c
OF those present voted Eyes" and 23
"no." ]:
After some further discussion
Pres. Spicer adjourned the meeting
after stating that it would be taken
as the sense Of the meeting that the
Board Of Education proceed to pre-
pare plans, ascertain the cost, and
call special meeting to vote on "a
bond proposition. 8.

Company that bears his name, is
making good. Although the season
is backward he is making large guam

equipment in the factory broke down
and Mr.. Curtis at once had one Of
