Not a Bite Of
Breakfast Until
You Drink Water
/t~>ssssg
Says a glass of hot water and
phosphate prevents illness
and keeps US fit.

Just as coal, when it burns, leaves
behind a certain amount of incom-
bustible material in the form of ashes,
so the food and drink taken day after
day leaves in the alimentary canal a
certain amount of indigestible ma
terial, which If not completely olimina-
ted from the system each day, be-
comes food for the millions Of bacteria
which infest the bowels. From this
mass Of leftover waste, toxins and
ptomain-like poisons are formed and
sucked into the blood.
Men and women who can't get feel
ing right must begin to take inside
baths. Before eating breakfast each
morning drink a glass of real hot
water with a teaspoonful Of lime
stone phosphate in 1t to wash out Of
the thirty feet of bowels the previous
days accumulation of poisons and
toxins and to keep the entire alimen-
tary canal clean, pure and fresh.
Those who are subject to sick head
ache, colds, biliousness, constipation,
others who wake up with bad taste,
foul breath, backache, rheumatic stiff
ness, or have a sour, gaSsy stomach
after meals, are urged to get a quarter
pound of limestone phosphate from
the drug store, and begin practicing
internal sanitation. This will cost
very little, but is sufficient to make
anyone an enthusiast on the subject.
Remember inside bathing is more
important than outside bathing, be-
cause the skin pores do not absorb
impurities into the blood, causing poor
health, while the bowel pores do.
Just as soap and hot water cleanses.
sweetens and freshens the skin, so
hot water and limestone phosphate
act on the stomach, liver, kidneys and
bowels

"SAVI0R OF PARIS"
IS CALLED BY DEATH

Paris, May 28.-General Gallieni, un-
til recently French minister of war,
and popularity known as the Savior of
Paris" is dead at Versailles.
His daring stroke against the Ger
mans early IN the war not only had
much to do with saving, Paris from
capture, but marked a turning point
in the European struggle.
Advancing swiftly toward the French
capital the Germans had reached the
northern outskirts, where General
Manoury attacked the German flank
under Won Kluck
The Germans were reinforced and
Manoury, in desperation, appealed to
General Gallieni, who had been ap-
pointed military governor of Paris
only few days previously.
Gallieni moved swiftly. By telephone
he requisitioned every taxicab in Paris,
loaded them with zouaves from Tunis,
who had just reached Paris, and sent
them dashing out to Manoury's aid.
Gallieni's taXicab army saved the
day. The Germans were then rolled
back and beaten at the Marine.

THE OSHKOSH NORMAL BE-

The fire at the Oshkosh Normal
School on March %, 1916, destroyed
the original QS69) building, the 1876
addition, the 1894 addition, and the
1900 addition. There remains the
1883 addition, the Gymnasium Q9OS),
the Power House Q910), the Indus
trial building Q912), and the resi-
dences used for dormitory and do
nestle science purposes. The insur-
ance on the destroyed buildings and
their contents was carried in the
State Insurance Fund and was adj
justed for $129,75O.S4. Some of the
equipment was saved,-including sc
per cent of the general library and
10 per cent of the text books.
Immediately following the fire the
classes were taken to churches in
the city and the work of the school
has gone forward with only one
days loss of time. No students
have withdrawn from the school, but
some have entered since the fire.
Arrangements have been made fol-
| the use of the Oshkosh highschool
and one of the ward schools for the
summer session, which will begin
on June 26th,-the Monday follow
ing the close of the highschool on
Friday. Arrangements have also
been made for next year by which
the Normal School will have the use
of the highschool building after one
o'clock. This arrangement, together
with the use of the unburned build
ings and some barracks, will enable
the school to continue it's work with
very little inconvenience until the
new buildings are completed.
New buildings of reinforced con-
crete are rapidly going up. The
foundation and ground floor slab of
the Science and Administration Unit
| (270x45 ft) was finished in Deem
Der, 1915. At the present time (May
the first floor slab is being poured.
The contract calls for the compile
ton of this building by Feb. 1, 1917.
The architects, under the direction
Of the Normal Regents, the State
Board of Education, and the State
Engineer, are preparing plans and
specifications for the Library Unit
Q43x14O ft). The contracts for this
building will probably be let by June
Is, and it will probably be complet-
ed by May 1, 1917. 1t is also prob
able that a training school will be
enclosed before snow flies and COM
pleted by August 1, 1917.
The buildings just enumerated can
be completed with funds now avail
able. The equipment for the school
and the building of an Auditorium
Unit will have to be presented to
the Legislature which convenes in
January, 1917.

Empire Builder III
but Few Days.
OPERATION IS FUTILE
Death Due to Infection Caused
by Hemorrhoids.

st. Paul May 29.-James J. Hill,
railroad builder and fnancier and the
best known man in the Northwest,
died at $3.50 a. m. today.
Mr.. Hills illness dated from May II,
when he returned to his home suffer
ing from a bad chill, the outgrowth
of hemorrhoids. On May % slight
infection of the bullock was noticed
the result of the hemorrhoids. This
infection spread rapidly and two op-
erations failed to retard it's progress.
From this time on Mr.. Hill lost
strength rapidly and hope for recov-
cry was abandoned some hours before
the end came.
Mr.. Hill would have been seventy
eight years of age in September and
although his illness and operation
were such that younger person might
have recovered, his age initiated
against the shock of the operation and
the extent of the infection.
Mr.. Hills wife and children were
present at the end, together with DR..
Herman M. Biggs of New York and
Rev Thomas J. Gibbons, vicar general
Of the Catholic diocese of ST. Paul.
Entire Nation Mourns.
The entire nation bowed in sadness
at the loss of Mr.. Hill. Soon after
the news Of his death had spread
throughout the United States tele-
grams of sympathy and sadness were
received by Louis w. Hill.
The inflow of messages completely
swamped Mr.. Hill and two secretaries
were named to receive the kilograms
and file and copy them.
Newspaper extras from New York
to San Francisco carried the news Of
the death. The kilograms gave an in
dication of the vastness of the terri
tory in which Mr.. Hills death was
keenly felt
In ST. Paul flags were hoisted at
half staff Groups of citizens discuss
ed the loss to St. Paul and the ma
ton. The part that Mr.. Hill played
In the development of the Northwest
was a favorite theme. His efforts In
behalf of farmers, his endowments for
educational purposes and the magni-
tude of his conceptions and accom-
plishments were mentioned.

RESTRICTIONS REMOVED

Larger postal savings deposits will
now be accepted at the post office
This is made possible by an impor-
tant amendment to the Postal Saw
ings Act just approved by President
Wilson. A postal savings depOsitor
may now have an account amounting
to 1000 upon which interest will be
paid. Formerly $500 was the maxi
mum amount he could have to his
credit. This enlargement of postal
savings facilities will be very graft
flying to thousands of depositors who
have already reached the $500 limit
and are anxious to entrust more of
their savings to Uncle Sam. Another
feature of the amendment that will
avoid further embarrassment to the
public and to postal officials is the
doing away with the limit ON the
a depositor monthly. Under the old
law only 500 could be deposited in
a calendar month. The amendment
abolishes this restriction. While the
Postal Savings System has already
proved a signal success as is shown
by the fact that more than half a
million depositors have over eighty
million dollars standing to their
credit, still it has fallen short of
meeting the full demands of the pub
lie because of the restrictions which
have now been eliminated. Post
master General Burleson and Third
Assistant Postmaster General Dock
cry have been tireless in their eff
forts to secure a modification of the
limitations and the new liberalizing
legislation is particularly gratifying
to them.

To Potato Club Members
/ am sending you some directions
for planting the pure Bred Seed
Potatoes" which you ordered from

intended for general directions only
Talk to people who are successful
potato growers, learn all you can
from reading; then make your plar

o. e. RICE,

G. M. HOUSEHOLDER,

Planting Potatoes
Care of the Seed-Potatoes should
be kept in a dark, cool, dry cellar
or pit until planting time. Never
keep them in a warm, light, damp
room.
Cutting the Potatoes for Seed-The
little potato plant must depend for
some time upon the food that is
stored in the seed which you plant
For this reason it is best to cut the
potato into quarters trying to get
two eyes on each piece. The potato
should be cut lengthwise. Cut the
seed the same day you plant.
Location of the Plot-To avoid &C
cidents that usually happen to the
plant on the edges of the field, you
had better plant your seed in the
center Of the garden or in the mid
die of your fathers potato field. BE
sure to put stakes around your rows
so that you will know where they
are.
Preparing the Seed-As soon as
the ground is dry enough you should
go over it with a hoe and break up
the clods until the soil is loose
and mellow. After the potatoes are
planted you should rake the ground
several times before the potatoes
come up.
Planting-The potatoes should be
planted by the Goth of May. The
seed should be planted about four
inches deep Make a straight ditch
about five inches deep and plant
one piece of potato every twelve
inches in the row. Be sure and get
the row straight Use a string if
necessary The potato should then
be covered and the dirt pressed dowr
firmly over each piece. Be sure
and arrange the rows to prevent
washing. If you plant more than
one row you should run the rows
three feet apart.

Elk NOW IN

THREE FINE SPECIMENS ARRIV-

KEEPER WOODFORD SAYS
TWO ARE VICIOUS. s

The three elk that the Park Board
secured from Yellowstone Park have
arrived and they are now conf ortably
located in a new barn that has been
built in the east end of Riverside Park
A stockade will be built soon and the
elk allowed to get out where they will
be more easily seen by the interested
public. Scores of people have already
visited the park. The elk will prove
one of the biggest attractions in the
city. There are two does and one
buck, all about year old. The antlers
do not start to form until elk are
about 10 months old.
While they will eat out of Keeper
Woodford's hands, he is careful not
to get directly in front or behind them
Two of them are very vicious and will
kick or paw readily. They subsist
mainly on hay, although in their ma
tive state they eat grass and the ten
der twigs of the smaller trees.

ARE EXCEEDINGLY BEAUTI-
Full.

The windows and interior displays
at McCoy's department store this year

scale than ever before.
The artistic effects were planned by
Harry Lenhoff, new display manager.
The color effect is in French blue

window is filled with the finest spring
wearing apparel McCoy's has ever

dresses, suits, coats, waists and chill
dren's dresses and large array of
millinery.
The decorations in the interior of
the store are very elaborate. The

specially designed pieces covered with
flowers and vines. The highly artistic
arrangement, all so pleasing to the
eye, has been the cause of much fav-
ora bile comment

No0nan Miner Terribly Injured.

NUOn8n WINef 1efFID1y 1nJUTeu. :
A Noonan coal miner, Dave West,
was struck by a train recently and
horribly injured. He was walking
along the track two miles east Of
Stampede at the time. He was thrown
some distance from the track and after
regainfng consciousness, crawled to a
straw stack. After several hours, he
attracted attention and was taken to
Columbus, where it was found that
one leg was broken, several ribs frac-
tured, and both legs were frozen stiff.
It was thot that amputation of one
limb would be necessary.
