Chicago.-When Charlie Nelson hit

But few weeks ago Charlie came

over the intrusion of the stranger in

was unethical

To make things worse, suit was filed
against Mrs. Oberg by an undertaken

of the coroner and officials to be rid

In support of her contention Mrs.
Oberg showed the telegram which her
son, Nels Nelson, received. stating his
brother, William Nelson, had been
killed in Chippewa Falls. The mother
says that she telegraphed that her
sons name was Charles Nelson, and
also sent a detailed description of his
appearance to the coroner and sheriff

In the meantime the efforts of the

defending Mrs Oberg in the matter

Then Prince William and Princess
Sofia put over one of their greatest
strokes. They decided that their own
children, the Heir Apparent, Prince
Charles William and the little princess
must come to Albania to share the
life of the people over which they
might some day reign. The TWO tots
were taken from the luxurious sur
roundings in Germany and brought to
Durazzo on an Italian yacht. The land

kissing and embracing by their par
ents, the holding up by Prince William
of his little son for his future sub

stoicism could stand and the Albanians
let loose a demonstration which made

Prince William and Princess Sofia
needed nothing after that to endear
themselves to the hearts of their peo-
pie, and their next stroke was to win
themselves to the support of the var

Albanians are divided. On the occasion
Cf the first Mohammedan feast day,
Prince William went in full regalia
to attend the services. The JOY of the
Mussulmans knew no bounds. Two
days later a function took place at
the Greek Orthodox church and was
heard by William. The Greeks and
Albanians the day after were in the
seveath heaven. Later William attend
ed services in the Roman Catholi',
church and the followers of that reli-

the others.
From seven in the morning until
eleven at night Prince William is at
work on the problems of his country.
In the three months he and Sophia
have been at Durazzo they have taken
off but one night for entertainment.
Some one had told Princess Sophia,
herself an accomplished musician, of
the beauty of the guitar on quiee

customs of the Mohammedans do not
permit of music after sunset. Not to

STUDY BUTTER MAKING
At Least One Hundred Will Enroll
For Dairy Course at College
Of Agriculture.

Fifty students have already been
enrolled in the dairy school of the
College of Agriculture, University of
Minnesota which opens Nov 9. The at
tendance last year was 100 and it is
believed that this number will be
exceeded. For the third time a short
course in ice cream making will be
given the last week of the school.
About thirty students are expected to
take this work this year.
Many of the cooperative creamer-
les of the state are adding ice cream
as side line. Some sell to the trade
others merely make it for their farm
er patrons, who pack it in ice and hold
it over for their Sunday dinners.
This takes considerable burden off
the shoulders of the housewife on a
day that is too often the busiest of
the. week.
The instruction in ice-cream max
ing is in charge of Prof. R. M. Wash
burn, and the dairy school, as it has
been since its establishment, is under
the direct supervision of Prof. T. l..
Hacker, head of the dairy division.

FRENCH REMEDY AIDS
STOMACH SUFFERERS

France has been called the nation
without stomach troubles. The French
have for generations used simple
mixture of vegetable oils that relieve
all stomach and intestinal ailments
and keep the bowels free from foul,
poisonous matter. The stomach is
left to perform it's functions normally.
Mr.. Geo. H. Mayr, a leading drug
gist of Chicago, cured himself with
this remedy in a short time. The de-
mand is so great that he imports
these oils from France ana compounds
them under the name of Mayr's Won
derful Stomach Remedy. People
everywhere write and testify to the
marvellous relief they have received
using this remedy.-one dose will rid

WHITE GRUBS CALL. FOR ACTION

The presence of so many June
beetles, the adult form of the white
grubs, throughout the state this year
means great numbers of white grubs
in the fields next year. Farmers should
begin war on these grubs now, says
William Moore, division of entomol-
ogy of the Minnesota College of Ag-
riculture.
The first preventative measure is to
plow all the fields w.lrcn have been in
grass, small grains, or sod this year
and which the farmer intends to plant
next year. Fall-plowing will destroy
many of the grubs. After blowing
hogs can be turned into this pasture
and will do much good in roofing out
the grubs and destroying them.
Next years planting should be
planned to avoid white grub injury
Fields which have been in timothy OF
other grasses, or in grain or sod, this
year. should not be planted next year
with crops which are susceptible tC
the attacks of white grubs, such as
potatoes, corn, Strawberries, etc
Clover, alfalfa, buckwheat, wheat, rye
oats, etc., are little injured by the
white grubs and can, therefore, be
planted on land likely to be infested
The farmer can discover the infested
fields when blowing, as the white
grubs will be turned over in great
numbers.

LESSONS IN PUBLIC HEALTH

Minnesota's public schools will this
winter give instruction in public
health. The states department of
education has had outlines prepared
by the Minnesota Public Health As
ISOLATION, and has printed $4,000 of
these, one for every public school
teacher in the state. These give plain
facts about health through knowledge
of simple things. The first deals with
germs, and others with such matters
as food and water, air, health super
vision. The outlines will be used as
guides by the teachers.

sleeves. A tunic, which does not meet
in the front, is worn over a black
satin skirt. The gridle is of the same
material as the dress, and tunic, and
meets in the back, where it is fastened
with snappers placed underneath the
cloth-covered buttons. A pointed col
lar and pointed cuffs of the satin
complete the dress.
This is indeed lace season and for
evening dresses and for afternoon
dresses it is used extensively. 1t forms
overdresses for frocks of charmeuse
and satin; at times it is only the tunlc,
or it may be but the bodice of a dress.
The margot edged craquele net is
very smart and effective. The evening
gown illustrated has surplice bodice
of this craquele net with the margot
edge, and a craquele neS yoke. The
skirt is of pink satin with over-skirt
of lace. Around the waist is worn a
wide sash of silver gauze ribbon which
ties at a low waistline in the back.
The practical evening wrap of black
velvet which is worn with this cos
tune is called the Norma Wanna cape
after the play written by Maeterlinck.
The collar is of Persian lamb and the
cape is lined throughout with rich
Natter blue satin. The lining OF
capes and wraps this year is an I'M
portant feature of the saSment. Won
derful brocades, figured crepe de
Chine, MORE, satin, and taffeta are all
used.
For evening capes and wraps there
are exquisite metal brocades from six
teen dollars yard up, which are both
effective and beautiful. These are
trimmed with collars of ermine, mink,
sable, beaver of kolinsky, the latter is
a northern Russian or Siberian mink.
Among other materials used for these
wraps are Ottoman faille silk which
comes in rich designs, futurist in their
coloring and outline. One stunning
coat made of this silk hac an allover
figure that at distance reminded noe
of Chinese designs and the effect was
heightened by the shape OF the cape

tern. 1t was trimmd with a huge
cape of kolinsky and band OF the
same fur banded the cape just above
the hem. This cape was lined with a
plain green, which matched one OF the
colors in the design.
The separate tailored coat is made
of such warm and thick materials as
velour de laine, cheviot and new
fabric called chenille cloth. Velvet
and plush are also used.
The trimming of street suits OF
faille ribbed velour, serge, gebardlne,

to the collar, cuffs and waistcoat eff

AS Americans would probably be
the greatest buyers, if not the only
ones, during this period of war, the
the dressmakers in Paris quickly
changed their models to suit the
American trade.
The skirts, though wider are not as
voluminous as few years ago. They
are cut circular and fit closely about
the hips, faring at the ankles. They
are very short, at least five or six in
ches from the floor. Some of the new
tunics are cut with a deep point front
and back. This is a very becoming
length of tunic for the woman who is
seeking to accentuate her height.
The Moyen Age frock is having a
tremendous vogue. Many of the au-
tumn models hang straight from the
shoulder to the hem without visible
waistline. Some have broad flat belt,
and others have sashes which tie in a
pinafore bow at the back.
The redingote effect is given many
of the long-waisted frocks. One dress
of dark taupe broadcloth is here illus
trated. The waist is of the short
basque variety, with plain short

Order for Monday

This is cleanup week. Get that
without fail.
Monday, March thirtieth, is the
day on which the city teams will haul
out al garbage and rubbish.
| wish every citizen would give
particular attention, especially to the
above statements.
1t costs the city about seventy to
seventy-five dollars each year to do
this work. The city has been follow
ing this rule of free hauling in order
that every citizen would respond
readily to the matter of cleaning up.
Last year many people waited until
the very day announced as the day
on which garbage would be hauled
out, and several failed entirely to get
their premises cleaned up in time to
have the benefit of free hauling.
Many of our people failed to give
much thought about matters of con-
venience for the man who hauled the
garbage, in simply raking the gar
bage out in the alley or street, fail
ing to burn any of it, and leaving it
in scattered and inconvenient shape.
All this has its relation with the cost
of cleanup day or haul-out day,
