THE SUPERIORITY OF
MARRIED MEN

M HE natural and great
" superiority of married
men over bachelors is
probably so well known as to
require no elucidation. 1t is
not generally known, however,
that the ratio is 26 to l, yet
such is shown by cold facts set
forth in the following from a
current magazine article upon
the subject:
"Show me one middle-aged
bachelor who has made a sue
cess of his life, and I'll show
you twenty-six married men
who have. Probably the ratio
is even greater than this, but |
prefer to base my contention
on demonstrable fact. Of the
twenty-seven presidents of the
United States only one lived
and died a bachelor. Nine
teen of them married before
they were thirty, five before
they were forty, and two after
forty. Yet, according to the
census returns, taking the en-
tire population of the country,
the proportion Of single men
to those married, widowed or
divorced, is about forty to
sixty"

If disarmament is to be one

Eagerly Awaited Visit of Living Models Proves
 Notable Event.

All roads, so far as the women of the community are concerned, lead to Meigs & Co. today and tomorrow for there are displayed on living models a choice assortment of handsome gowns, coats and suits at popular and reasonable price. It has been the custom of some years for this prominent clothing store to set aside two days in the spring and autumn for a sale of their garments at one price and so popular has been the institution that the women of Bridge port and it's surrounding towns always look forward to this time with much anticipation. ~
 Attractive models, who know how to wear clothes properly, are at the store both days and fhese not only display the various coats, suits and gowns, but also obligingly don any garment which appeals to a customer so that she may see how it looks when it is worn.
 In this one price sale Meigs & Co.,. are offering the very latest decrees of fashion Great coats, so popular this year, are made from wool velours and other soft woolly materials that are warm in spite of their light weight. The coats continue to be full, and their chief feature is their collars, which are always very large and are known under the various names of coach mans collar, postillion collar and Shakespearean coilor. Fur is used extensively in the collars themselves. the huge cuffs, and in various band ings and even buttons. This is great fur season in which Hudson seal, skunk, dyed opposum and mole skin and it's imitation, moline hold leading positions. Ff'N
 The colors seen most in the coats and suits are Burgundy, or as it is sometimes called Bordeaux red, the various shades of plum, Jap brown and green, while navy blue is even more popular than ever.
 There is a great deal of grey and blue used in the street dresses, many of which are wool embroidered Geor- gette crepe is still popular and is often seen now in new combination with serge.
 The >vening gowns are extremely handsome, maline being extensively used over silver cloth, tinted blue or pink and gold cloth. One unusually handsome gown was of gold cloth foundation, covered with pillows of bronze tinted maline and ornamented with bronze bead ornaments. The ef- feet was that of the brown autumn leaves. Where last season the arm- hole of. the evening gown was quite sleeveless, tiny ruffle now offers an apology for that article.

 Meigs & Co.'s sale will be continued tomorrow.

TEN CENT sIKb SOLD FOR $500

The Minnesota Seed Laboratory,
University Farm, st. Paul, has sent
out a warning against someone who
has been selling the seed of what he
calls the "Wonder Forage Plant"
Such a man was working in the vi
cinity of French Lake, Mimi, selling
his seed at SIS a pound. He promised,
by handful and otherwise, that,
"from three to five mowings could be.
secured in season; that the nutri--
tive value of this forage plant ex-,
ceeded that of any other; and that
if grown for seed it would produce
5000 pounds to the acre."
c. N. Anderson, cashier Of the,
Farmers State Bank of French Lake,
becoming doubtful of the value of the.
seed offered by the man, secured a
sample and sent it to the seed la
boratory, and it was discovered to be
nothing more nor less than pearl mil
ct, which may be bought almost any
where for from 8 to 10 cents a.
pound.
On the strength of this investiga-
ton, the farmers have been warned to,
be on the lookout for fake seedsmen.
