Don't scold the fretful, nervous

Get rid of these by giving one

JAPAN LEADS
WORLD INDIVORCE
(RY Associated Press.N

TOXIC, Dec. SIN proportion to its
population Japan leads the world in
divorce, according to statistics just
compiled by government officials. A
great number of separations come
about Immediately after marriage.
Whereas in England the proportion
Of divorce is only two to every 10000
marriages and in the United States
it is eighty-two, in Japan there are no
fewer than 173 divorces to every 90
900 marriages. Most of the divorces
recorded have been brought about by
mutual consent" and through the eff
forts Of the go-betweens responsible
for the original union. They were ac-
complished without submission to
court or law. Out of the $4,000 divorces
which were effected between 1883 and
1902 only 400 cases were obtained by
law suits.
The divorce report says: "This re-
markable state of affairs is attribut-
able to the fact that ideas Of individual
rights and obligations as we'll as
knowledge and experience Of the law
are but scantily developed in the
minds of the Japanese people. But
since the Japanese women are now
growing in the consciousness of their
dignity and rights we hear now and
then of cases of women fighting for
divorces in the courts of law"
In conclusion the report urges strict
er regulations, pointing out that the
general tendency in the civilized world
is toward gradual diminution of
divorce and that the proportion in
Japan is becoming alarming.

STELLA DENETTE. MEZZO
SOPRANO. REAL STAR
One of the Few Really Great Ameri-
can Stars is With the San
Carlo Company.

Nine. Stella DeMette, formerly a
leading member Of the Montreal and
Metropolitan Opera companies, is one
of the few stars of American birth
now with the San Carlo grand opera.
Her appearance with the San Carlo
ans last season-her first with that
organization-was so respondent with
success that she has been retained by
Impresario Fortune Gallo for the
1916-17 season. Miss DeMettes superb
voice and acting are readily remem-
bered by all San Carlo patrons who
heard her last year, she having been
acclaimed as an artist whose singing
and talents as an actress left an in
delible mark wherever she appeared.
She is endowed by nature with un-
usual personal beauty, and possesses
those physical attributes that go so
far toward the making Of a great
artist.
Nine. DeMette will have but a
single appearance during the two-day
engagement Of the San Carlo COM
pany at the Auditorium, being cast
for the role Of Santuzza, the leading
feminine part in Mascagni's charming
one-act opera, Cavalleria Rusticana,
on Tuesday afternoon. The favorite
two-act opera, Pagliacci Neoncaval-
lo) will be given in connection with
Cavalleria Rusticana, and be sung by
an almost entirely different cast of
the company's leading artists.

Denny Sullivan, former manager or
the Fort William club, with st. Joseph
in the Western league last year, who
is being boosted by Fargo and Moor
head baseball fans to succeed the late
Col Robert A. Unglaub as manager
of the Fargo Moorhead club, was once
n student at the North Dakota Agri-
cultural college.
Denny came to this state from South
Dakota years ago, playing independ-
ent baseball in the summer, and at
tending the farm school in the winter.
His stick work attracted the attention
of the old Northern league bosses with
the result that he spent some time on
the old Fargo and Winnipeg clubs.
Went to Association.
It wasn't long, however. before his
work attracted the attention of the
bigger magnates, being gobbled up by
MINNEAPOLIS in the American assocla-
ton. where he spent several years.
From there he went to Kansas City,
burning up the paths with his speed,
and proving a nightmare to members
of the various pitching staffs of the
opposition.
About this time Denny decided to
study medicine, and soon enrolled as a
student at the University of Mime
sofa, finishing his course, and later
hanging out his shingle at Bantry,
n. D.
The call of the diamond was too
strong, however, and soon Denny was
back in organized baseball, holding

Fire Prevention.

Nby Associated HTeSS.)
Baltimore, Md, Dec. S.-Fire preven-
tion will be one of the most important
subjects discussed at the second annual
convention Of the Safety First fedora
tion, which began here Dec. z. Many
devices for the safety of life, limb and
property will be illustrated and dem
onstrated.
With statistics showing a national
fire loss of $50,000,000 per year, the
Safety First federation, two years ago,
undertook a countrywide campaign of
education in an effort to cut down THIS
tremendous loss, which was declared
to have been largely due to careless
ness, and to protect life. On invitation
of the federation, in 1915. the governors
of thirty states issued proclamations
setting aside Oct. as Fire Prevention
day. This year the movement received
added impetus owing to a proclamation
by President Wilson, making Oct. 8 a
National Fire Prevention day, which
was augmented by proclamations by
the governors of many states. More
than 500 cities, representing every state
in the union, took part in the .observ-
ance of the day. Reports of loss cut
down and actual savings made possible,
came to the federation from all sides.

MUCH GOLD STILL
LEFT IN GERMANY
(Bv Associated Press.l

Berlin, Dec S.-With the close of the
racing season nearly everywhere in
Germany it has been found that the
gold pieces which were turned in at the
gates during the summer, in return for
reduced prices of admission, total about
10000 marks.
\ Whereas the majority of the press at
first greeted this news as altogether
after thinking it over, have decided
that 1t is altogether disgracefur to
discover that SO large number Of peo-
pie obviously had unpatriotically ao-
stained from turning in their gold un-
til induced to do so in order to buy
amusement q little more cheaply..
Part of the press is thoroughly in
dignant that in these days of appeals
from all sources to turn in gold, in
these days Of collecting bureaus for old
gold and ornaments, there should still
be so many persons in the empire who 10
will not be moved by any lessons to
help bring our financial system into
consonance with the enormous demands
made upon it,. This portion OF the
press questions whether the Reichsbank
is right in it's policy of trying to col
lect all the gold in the empire by volun-
tary surrender.

FOREIGN JOCKEYS WILL
Be ADMITTED IN 1917
Austria and Hungary Will Raise Ban
on Outside Riders-Shortage
of Good Riders Cause.
tBy Associated Press.)

New York, Dec. S.-From Austria
and Hungary comes word that next
year the bar against foreign Jockeys.
that has prevailed during the past sea-
son, is to be lifted. Only Austrian,
Hungarian and German jockeys wero ,
given licenses to ride this year, but
the lack of good jockeys, and at times
jockeys of any kind, has been so great
that the racing promoters feel it will
be necessary to admit neutral riders
hereafter.
In the past American jockeys have
been the principal outsiders. In gen
eral they have been SO far superior to
native riders that the tendency was to
jump wages in order to attract them.
Native riders naturally insisted on
getting more money also. or on bar
ring the Americans. The latter was
adopted as the easier way out Of the
dilemma.

TEARNEY ISSUES CALL
TO MINOR PRESIDENTS
Backs Move to Perfect Legislation to
Relieve Financial Conditions in the
smaller Leagues.
(By Associated Press.)

Chicago, Dec. 8.-Pres. A. r. Tear
ney. of the Three league, in an ap-
peal issued last night to presidents OF
minor leagues throughout the country
and representing all clubs, urges that a
special meeting of the National Asso-
citation Of Baseball leagues be called
to perfect legislation, which, he be
Iieves, will relieve the financial condi-
tion of minor leagues.
Tearney believes that certain
leagues, principally the Western, Cen
trail, Three l and Central association
should be redistricted so that mileage
would be lessened. Salaries paid bal
players, he said, are exorbitant The
remedy Of this situation lies in the
reclassification Of the leagues, and {
new salary list agreed upon.
