Every one in New Ulm should
feel proud and happy that our people
have at last shown that there is
nothing too costly for us to have If
it touches the wcll-bcing Of future
generations. We have decided to
build a new school house, one ade-
,quate to the needs Of New Ulm. We
have gulped little about swallowing
the high cost but VIC got it down
and tho the taste may be a bit I'M
pleasant to some of us we are not
making wry face-everybody knows
that what we have done is for the
best interests of the children and we
are all going to be pleased at the
results. The fact that election night
was decidedly stormy and disagree
able and yet so many of the people
found it incumbent upon themselves
to express their convictions is sig
nifcant and augurs we'll for a re-
awakened interest in school matters.
Also the further significant fact is
to be noted: the vote as cast did not
indicate any fractional feeling. The
opposition to the bonds came, chiefly
from those who oppose higher taxes.

10 CENT "CASCARETS"
FOR LIVER AND BOWELS
Cure Sick Headache, Constipation,
6iIiousness, Sour Stomach, Bad
Breath--Candy cathartic.

No odds how bad your liver, stom-
ach or bowels; how much your head
aches, how miserable you are from
constipation, indigestion, biliousness
and sluggish bowels-you always. get
relief with Cascarets. They imme.
diately cleanse and regulate the stom-
ach, remove the sour, fermenting food
and foul gases; take the excess bile
from the liver and carry off the con-
stipated waste matter and poison
from the fntestines and bowels. A
1O-cent box from your druggist will
keep your liver and bowels clean:
stomach sweet and head clear for
months. They work while you sleep.

The Talking Pictures shown at the

Saturday matinee and the evening

good and 7ahere are times when one
can scarcely convince himself that the
;aetors ia the pictures are not doing
the tsifkfpg. The s'Miser" scene and
the '4sereader" were exceptionally
good. It would seem that in the scenes
requiring slow, distinct enunciation
the Illusion is more perfect than in
those where there is too great rapidity
of action and speech. Tie ear and
eye must be conscious of the word
chat falls from the lips at the same
enoment in order to produce the per.

7 ENT is that season of the year
when It is fashionable to be re-
ligious, because 1t gives one
such a blessed opportunity to recover
from auction bridge losses or to re-
tire to hospital for an operation.
In the beginning. fashionable wom-
en- beat tom toms to call attention to
their sacrificial fires, and in the end
only those are found kneeling in pen
itential attitude whose lives are sac
rifices all the year. 1t is like the pill
grimages of old that started out with
inspiring music and brave numbers
and that reached the Easter Of their
journey with only a/handful of the
faithful left
With Daysey Mayme Appleton,
Lent is a vicaTious atonement. In
true Lenten spirit she persuades 9TH
ers to make sacrifices, sustained by
the knowledge that self denial is for
their best good, and that the saving
of others is more to be desired than
saving herself-a beautifully fashion
able creed
Lysander John smokes more than
is good for him. His daughter says
so, and she reduced his cigar allow
anCe two thirds, She eliminated
SIS spring suit from her mothers
dreams, and added SIS to her Easter
fund by cutting PIE from her broth
er's school luncheon.
Then she felt that the time had
come for personal endeavor, and with
the money invested in purple broad
cloth and COlOred silks and gold braid
she spends her days embroidering an
altar cloth that will draw like mus
tard plaster on the attention of the
sinners who behold it.
There are pink angels floating
around on green clouds, each tuning
a harp of tango yellow, and the ce-
rise-colored trees and lavender tint
ed foliage in the background make a
harmony OF color that is found no
where on earth except in fabulously
priced stained glass windows.
1T is an inspiring thought" unused
Daysey Mayme, embroidering a yell
lowish- green halo over the middle
angels head TO feel that one IS
Doing Good in the World"

The children, however, looked dis

piped out:
