OYSTERS LIVE AND DEAD.
And the Big Difference 1t Makes When
They Are Eaten Raw,

Speaking about keeping hotels, Sine
IN Ford, who won fame and fortune
in that profession, had this to say
about the %succulent oyster:
People have come ard sworn to
me that we had the finest oysters in
the world. Now, that was all tommy
lot. We had the same oysters n one
else could buy, although we always
bought the best we could. But there is
this about the oyster: When he is good
he is very, very good; when he is bad
he is very, very bad.
"There is a whole lot of difference
between a dead oyster and a live one.
When an experienced opener puts his
knife into an oyster he can tell in a
second if the oyster is really alive.
He can even tell by the resistance
whether the oyster is in prime condi-
ton or only fair. If the oyster was
not just right our men would throw it
away, and they used to throw away
about one oyster in every four that we
bought.
"a dead oyster isn't fit to eat raw.
But the live oyster that is opened
right in front of you and stays on the
plate just long enough to squeeze a
drop of lemon on, he goes down your
throat a juicy and a palpitating treat.
That's only possible when you stand
up to an oyster bar.
"Why in some of Our gilded palaces
they begin to open oysters after break
fast and you get them for dinner. Well,
you get them. that's all, and they're
dead! A corpse is a corpse, ever if it
is kept on ice.'-Henry M. Hall in New
York World.

Tho Supreme Court.

The supreme court of the United
States is supposed to be strictly nom
political, free from all parties and
above all parties. 1t was designed by
the fathers Of the constitution to act
as the governor" or "~fywheel," Of
our system Of government, maintain
ing justice and right in the midst Of
the wrangling factions and clashing in
terests. According to the theory, the
supreme court is to know nothing but
the constitution and the laws that are
made in pursuance thereof and in ev-
cry matter that is brought up before it
to hold the balance yer regardless Of
everything else.-New York American.

UnabaShed.

Years ago Isidore de Lara used to
sing his own songs at concerts to his
own accompaniment. The most pOpu-
lar of them was THE Garden Of
Sleep" Once-so runs the story-Mr.
de Lara was Garden of Sleeping" at
a private house, and he was immense
ly annoyed by George Moore, who
went on mistakenly talking after the
song had begun. Mr.. de Lara sang a
few bars and then sprang Indignantly
to his feet.
"Mr. Moore" he said. II was singing
the other day before the Prince Of
Wales, and he spoke, and l stopped"
"Well, my dear chap" replied Mr..
Moore calmly, she survives"
Mr.. de Lara had humOr enough to
join in the general laugh.-London An

PETER ANDERSON

Peder Anderson (Hovde) died at
the residence of And. Larson Mon
day 1t 1920 p. nj. June %, 1914, at
the good old age of 90 years, 2
months and 81 days. Mr.. Anderson
was born in MEDIUM, Norway, March
IS, 1922. In 1912 he married Anne
Kariue Viger. In 1852 with his wife
and two children he emigrated to
America and settled first at Racine,
Wis. Two years later he moved to
Pierce county, Wi and settled in
the town of Martell, and was one of
the first settlers in the then new
country. He was one of the organ
izers of the township and the first
chairman of the board of s%upervis-
ors and for years was a prominent
figure in town and country politics.
He was one Of the organizers of the
trustees for many years. In 1887
his faithful wife died, having been
an invalid for many years. He made
his home some y e a with his
daughter, Mrs. A 0. Sather, then
at Cannon Falls, Mimi, and upon
their removal to this city, has lived
with his oldest daughter, Mrs, And.
Larson, where he had the best of
home and was tenderly cared for to
the last.
Mr.. Anderson was a very active
man and it was difficult for him to
realize his decline in strength. Not
until about a year ago was he com
PEELED to give up his active garden
ing. He however, was able to be
around, until about a month ago
when he was compelled to take tt
his bed. From that time he rapidly
failed
He fully realized his earthly ca
reer was drawing to a close and was
reconciled to it, longing for that
rest which is promised all those
who die in the faith of the Lord and
Saviour Jesus Christ.
He is survived by two daughters,
Mrs. And. Larson and Mrs. A. O.
Sather, both of this city. Two other
daughters having died some years
ago, the oldest and the youngest.
The funeral was held at the resi-
dence of Mr.. and Mrs. And. Larson,

C~HAUTAUQUA HAS GRAND
OPENING

River Falls first c~hautauqua
opened yesterday under most IA
vorable conditions imaginable. In
the first place the weather was
ideal, and the ten hundred or more
people who attended each per-
Torrance enjoyed the music of the
justly famous Liberati's band in
cool comfort.
The advance sale of season tick
cts was another source of great
satisfaction, especially to those
who signed the guarantee OF $500
and thus secured the chautauqua.
The advance sale amounted to over
$1,000, and $500 more, in season
tickets and single admissions, were
collected on the grounds yester-
day.
Previous to the opening of the
concert program Professor Hime-
lick spoke a few words Of appre-
citation of the support given the
chautauqua movement here; Rev.
financial side of the question, and
DR.. Pace, of st. Paul, who will
act as manager, was introduced
and gave a short description of
the talent offered by the bureau.
Rev. Mr.. Gray led the invocation.
The program was a splendid one,
both the singing and instrumental
numbers being heartily appreciated.
There is every indication that the
high attendance average of yes
terday will be maintained through
out the course.
