Wsdded Bliss.

New Salem, N. D., June 5.-Fifty
years had passed on June 3rd since
our fellow ~cllizens, Mr., and Mrs.
Adam OFT, nee Schiltz, were united in
marriage. Several of their friends
agreed to surprise them with Their
children. This was a perfect sue
cess. The children and friends from
away upon arriving here gathered at
the home of Fred Wiegmann, ST.,
and from there went to the home Of
the happy couple. The minister who
had been informed of the occasion,
soon arrived and after, blessing the
pair, performed the marriage cere.

the utmost without becoming white
and the hair of mummies drieC
through the centuries still show
their pigments precisely as do freshel
hairs.
Color Changes Explained.
The explanation of the familiar
color changes Of the hair is probably
to be found, not in a destruction OF
pigment already present, not in any
bleaching of hairs already formed
but rather in a complete renewal OF
the hair. %Pigmented hairs fall out
and are replaced by unpigmented
or white ones. The appearance OF
Of gray or white hair is therefore at.
tributable to the formation of a new
hair coat rather than by the alter
alton of the old one. Completely
augmented hairs never turn gray;
they fall out. 1t is nevertheless OBJ
served that the process of pigment
formation may eas during the de-
velopment of a hair. In that event
the tip will remain pigmeated though
the base appears white.
Does Not Change Rapidly.
How are we to harmonize these
statements, asks The Journal of the
American Medical Association, with
the many published records of hair
turned white suddenly as the
presumable consequence Of fright or
other profound emotion? A careful
study OF the reputed Instances has in
variably shown that they were myth
ical. 1t Is popularity related that
Marie Antoinette grew gray hair dur
ing the night after she was condemn
ed to be executed. 1t is true that at
her death her hair was gray; but her

had been gray long before the time

that the change in her hair
while in prison was due to the fact
that she did not have access to hair

Treacherous Shifting Sandbars
Cause Death of Little Fellow
While Bathing. ,..,

Wahpeton, N. D., June 6.-The deep
sandbar just off the east end of Horse
Shoe park was the scene Of another
tragic event when little Frank Cor
don, the. nine-year.0ld son of Mr.. and
Mrs. L.. c. Gordon, who reside on
Utah avenue, had gone to the river
after his dismissal from school and
in company with several other boys
of near his own age had gone in bath
ing. Eut he had not yet learned to
swim, and neither had any of his
companions, and getting beyond his
depth the swift under current at that
point quickly carried him off his feet
and he disappeared from sight, never
to be seen alive again. -.
His little companions being unable
to be of any assistance themselves
ran with all their might into the city
and spread the alarm, and Chief of
Police Powrie and Sheriff Budack,
with other men hurried to the spot
and a diligent search was at one in
stituted for the body, but it could not
be found. Nets were spread in the
river it was thought far enough down
to catch the body if it reached them.
The body was discovered floating
at the top of the water opposite the
Vculek farm four miles north of the
city.
The Gordon family only last fall
came here from South Dakota, having
bought a farm northeast of Brecken-
ridge, but resided in this city in or.
der to take advantage of our schools
for their children. The home was on
Utah avenue, but at the time of the
sad accident the father was at work
on the farm and had to be notified by
phone and messenger, while the moth.
er, almost crazed with gfief at, the
home mourned deeply over the sud
den loss of her bright little boy.

VOLCANOES Constructive

Toxic, June 6.-Frank A. Perrot, the
American vOlcanOlOgist, has come to
the conclusion that the, volcano and
earthquake activity which has been
the source of continual worry and fire.
quent devastation in Japan, Is on the
wane. But the, hope he holds out Is
not for immediate cessation of these
troubles. It is a matter of centuries.
DR.. Perret is one Of the few scien-
lists who devote their whole time to
the study of the earth's commissions.
He represents the Volcanic Research
Society Of Springfield, Mass, and the
Volcanological Institute or Naples,
spending most Of his time under the
shadow of Vesuvius. He came here
last February to visit the scene of
the volcano eruption on the Island Of
Sakura, the month previously, when
Sakurajima's molten lava caused a
great loss of life and property.
Told Of Accident.
Details of an accident which be-
fell him during his investigations
make it appear that he had a very
narrow escape ron death on Sakura-
jjma in March. He was taking notes
of a lava flow when suddenly a small
crater, only sixty feet from where he
wa sstanding, burst Orth with a ter
rifle explosion, sending a column of
lava and red hot rock thousands of
feet into the air. A tongue OF lava
struck n of DR.. Perret's knees and
several stones burned into his flesh.
That his injuries were not more ser.
ious, or even fatal, was due only to
the fact that he was able to shelter
himself behind a large boulder.
81 have taken many Chances" he
said, "but certainly l have never been
so near death as l was at Sakuraji-
mi. y"
While the full report of his investi-
cation will not be drawn up until
later, DR.. Perret is convinced that the
study of volcanic and seismic condi-
lions In Japan has been well worth
while. For one thing, he said, 1T

Volcanoes Constructive.
Speaking Of the general situation,
he continued: I'VE must remember
that volcanoes form a constructive
means for the upbuilding of this ar.
chipelagO which began ages ago and
which is continuing. If we look from
the standpoint Of a large number Of
years-say centuries-we can say
that volcanic phenomena is waning.
Consequently earthquakes, always
considering them as a whole, will be-
come fewer in Japan rather Ahan
more numerous"
During this waning period, how
ever, he added, it was always pos
sible that severe disturbances would
occur, and that many communities
took risks, as at Mount As0, where
1900 people actually live in a crater.

Downey and Mr.. John Christensen
who is secretary Of the breeding Cir

by the heavy rains that had delayed
railroad traffic and made it difficult to
get around with autos. Those who
did come were much pleased with the
trip. They not only were pleased
with the Holsteins but will buy a
number. They can see that these New
Salem farmers by working together
n in getting good pure bred stock
have put themselves in a position
where the other farmers in the state
and in other states will bring there
money to them for their good stock.
So much interest was shown in this

An instant after she bit her lips.
Not for worlds would she have put a

The Evening Story
WHAT CAME OF A RAINY DAY.

Copyright, 1914, by w. Werner.)
1t was Saturday afternoon, and the
rain disobligingly beat the roses from
the hedge and plastered the petals
against the Weather boarding and
window pancs. Rivulets of claycy
water gurglcd noisily in the wheel
tracks of the road that was even now
a dim, misty strip. Everything, from
sky to barn, with it's litter of time
stained farm implements, was hope
lessly sodden.
Nina orion sighed d%olorously in
contemplating it. She had planned to
city girl who did stunts in the way Of
reporting socicty's doings, M who
sometimes came for an over Sunday
visit with relatives. She could not go,
of course, for the walk was Il mile
away if n crossed fields, and much
farther if one followed the road.
And Lena was SO clever and inspir-
ing, and She was almost her only
friend. 1t seemed too bad that she
should miss this pleasure when SO
few fell to her lot.
"But'it's always So" she told her
self with a dissatisfaction as stormy
be so. There's no possible way out
of it. Oh, 1 hate rainy days, M I
hate
There was a cooling noise and she
turned quickly. A little child with
outstretched arms toddled uncertainty
toward her, it's eyes shining, its small
face expressing a world of sa%tisfac-
ton with it's new and wonderful
achievement.
She caught it UP quickly and held it
close, murmuring pet names and Sob
bling over it in sudden contritIon.
After a while she put it down and
went to the window again. Suddenly,
on the high grade of a cross road an
object appeared. Presently it was a
motor car, and in a few minutes it
came slowly up and stopped. A man
hallooed and then jumped out and
ran into the barn, where her father
was doing the chores. After a while
they came in, chatting briskly.
quite So her father was saying
when the door opened. The philoso-
ply that extracts comfort where ap-
parcntly there is none 1 hold to be
the true one
The stranger agreed pleasantly, and
Nina felt, rather han saw, the glance
which left her n travelled about
the room to finally rest on a wall of
shelves overlooking with books.
