CARE OF A WATCH

Always carry your watch with
the face next the person.
Always wear a guard or chain
with your watch that it may not
slip or fall to the ground.
Never expose the movement
where it is damp, your watch will
serve you better if never opened at
all except by a competent watch
maker.
In winding, hold the watch
steadily in one hand and wind with
the other.
Have a regular time for winding
and keep it as near as practicable
in the lame position.
Should it stop, do not shake it
violently, and never attempt to
force the wheels forward. Serious
injury is liable to result from either
of these practices, and lastly bring
it to us and give us a chance to
demonstrate our skill upon your
ailing watch.
The price?-not the lowest in
these parts, but the least that the
quality of our work will afford.
Maybe, after a little experience
you will conclude that it is the
cheapest in the end.

EDUCATIONAL.
by G. w. MeisneSt.) J

In the course of an address on "Hy-
giene, " delivered at Harrisburg n few
days ago, DR., Samuel G. Dixon, Health
Commissioner Of Pennsylvania, advoca-
ted the garden as desirable for hygien-
ic, esthetic and economic reasons. DR..
Dixon said:
"Plant garden. Some of the
worlds greatest thinkers have found
diversion and inspiration IN their gar
denS. II your control of agricultural
space is limited TO a twenty-foot back
yard do not be discouraged. 1t is even
possible to transform an unattractive
fiat roof into garden. The possibili-
ties of exercise and profit to be de-
rived from the cultivation of even a
small plot are greater than one might
think.
THE use OF the spade, the hoe and
the rake prove the equivalent of many
of the gymnaslic exercises which every
body comedies to be beneficial and few
persons take. In addition to the adj
vantages Of exercise in the open air, it
is a keen satisfaction to the vast ma
jority Of men and women to see things
that they have cultivated grow and
mature.
"lhe practical benefits derived from
the tillage of little garden are usual
~ exceeded by the esthetlc, but in the
hurly-burly of everyday life perhaps
we weigh as of too little Importance
our opportunities for the cultivation
and appreciation of the beautiful. 1t is
difficult to tell how far.reaching may
be the 9ilect of some slight effort at
Identification.
Years ago boy station agent of n
railroad traversing the plains of the
Canadian Northwest sent back home
for few packages of flower, seed, and
with such time as he could spare trans
formed the surroundings of his mean
little one-room station. Sir Thomas
Shaughnessy, president Of the road,
was making tour of inspection, and
when he reached this little garden spot
in the then uncuuVated wastes he
asked to see the boy, and learned from
him the story Of his garden. As a re-
suit, the next year all agents of this
road, which stretches from the Atlantic
to the Pacific, received packages Of
seeds and instructions to plant flowers
around every station, and the custom
then begun has ever since continued.
"The cultivation of twenty feet or
more Of back yard may not result in
anything Of the sort, but should prove
healrhful, restful and profitable di-
version after the labors Of the day for
the busy man or woman
The Health Commissioners advice is
timely and is fully as applicable to the
gardening proposition in Manitowoc as
in Harrisburg. The needful imple-
ments are not expensive, and it will
not be much trouble to find them at
the hardware store. Neither will it
require IN extensive search TO locate
such vegetable and flower seeds as are
requisite to the enterprise. Probably
nobody ever succeeded in growing any
sort Of a vegetable which looked as at
tractve as the pictures on the seed
packages and in the catalogues, but
fair results are possible for honest eff
fort. AS DR.. Dixon shows, the eXper-
tment will not be without beneft-even
though the harvest is not great or
there is an absolute crop failure.

A DOUBLE TRAGEDY.

About six weeks ago>a man and wom-
an giving their names as Mr.. and Mrs.
Hostage came to the city. The man
secured employment at the Dry Dock
Company's plant. Tuesday morning a
Strange man called for the woman and
The two left the house together. The
sexton and his assistants at Evergreen
cemetery saw The pair about 8 o'clock
betting strangely. They were apparent
y unabashed in demonstration Of afiec-
lion. They went down into ravine at
he south end of the cemetery and soon
Two shots hurried the men to the scene.
The stranger had put bullet through
5he woman's head and then one through
ais own. She died instantly. He lin
yered in state OF coma for three
hours. The woman's husband" was
ouud at his employment and taken in
20 custody. He admitted that they
were not married but said each had
|Deen divorced. He disclaimed acquain-
|,ence with the stranger. From Chica-
10 on Wednesday came the unraveling
Pf the mystery.
Eight years ago John Probert secured
a divorce from his wife Mabel at Chi
tago because of the attentions of a
|Doarder known as "Gostage." This
fnan and Charles Danielson, property
man at south Chicago theater, have
|peen rivals for the woman's favor.
She left with Gostage and lived with
him in Michigan and came with him to
|Manitowoc. From here she visited
Iouth Chicago for two weeks and
here seems to have encouraged Dani-
bison further. The latter followed her
here and the shooting by him is proba-
ply the result of her refusal to leave
Postage and flee with him. Danielson

The double killing does not look like

News that the extreme heat OF last
Friday had caused the death of John
pedrick at Forest Junction shocked
the city. Mr.. Dedrick has been for
over 20 years atraveling salesman for

made business calls at Hilbert and later
at Forest Junction. He went to the
hotel there feeling i'll and before

of age and leaves wife, four daughters
and two sons. Mr.. Dedrick was de-
vout and active member of the St.

dignity of 'demeanor and apparent,

supposed % be handicap. His home

FIFTY YEARS AGO.

QUICKLY DONE.-One day last week
man named Weisner obtained Sl50 at
Shove's Bank, under false pretense,
and left next morning on the boat for
Chicago with his ill-gotten gain. Sher-
i'll Smith started after him on Friday,
caught him in Chicago, and brought
the money back on Tuesday morning.
Mr.. Smith is not only good Sheriff,
but as detective officer is second to
no man in the West--He has pecu-

Over 500 Democrats met Tuesday af-
ternoon in the West Side Turn hall,
Milwaukee, and recommended full tic
ket for state officers and United States
senator to be voted upon at the primary
election in September.
About twelve hours before the con-
vention was called TO order, John A
Aylward and Paul Husting met with
Joseph r. Davies and other members of
the Democratic organization and decid-
ed that Mr.. Husting should be the or
ganization candidate for United States
senator, and that Mr.. Aylward should
be the organization choice for COVER
nor of Wisconsin.
And thus ended all efforts at harmo-
ny in the Democratic party of this
state. Mr.. Aylward opened his cam
paign with an arraignment of Judge
Karel and the convention came back in
the afternoon with broadside of'hot
shot for the Aylward- Husting- Davies
organization.
Mr.. Aylward made his attack in q
statement issued to the newspapers,
but addressed to the Democratic voters
of Wisconsin. The Karelkearney fac :
tion made its answer in ringing speech
es delivered before the convention.
The Aylward- -Husting-Davies faction
took no part in the convention, and cal
led attention to the fact that large
number ofcounties sent no delegates to
the convention. The Karel and Kear-
ney men had everything their own
way in the convention.
The convention was enthusiastic for
two men, il nGt fcrsthe entire ticket
nominated. When Thomas M. Kear-
ney of Racine was nominated by the
convention for United States senator,
the delegates cheered his name as if he
had been their choice for president of
the United States, and when he appear
ed to accept the honor conferred upon
him, he was given such an ovation as
has been given few Democrats by
convention in Wisconsin. The enthus-
iasm for Judge Karel was scarcely less
marked. That these two were great
favorites was not to be doubted. The
cheers and applause that greeted them
as they appeared to thank the conven-
tion for its action, was general and
genuine.
The other candidates recommended
we're for the most part drafted for the
places on the ticket which they were
given. There were no contests. There
were more than one name mentioned
for several of the offices, but such per-
feet harmony prevailed that the con-
vention at no time was called upon to
express choice between any two men
mentioned for the same office. Always
before the final action was taken one of
the men proposed would withdraw.
Delegates and aternates from Mani
towoc were the following:
Carl Hansen, Gust Krst, w. Wilin-
ger, John Chloupek, John Healy, A. J.
Clark, Theo. Anderson, H. G. Schuette
A. j. Auton, Thomas Brennan, e. w.
