ELMER ECKMAN.

HAMGA1I LCANAkA4Ns
Elmer Eckman of New London died
last Friday afternoon, and his untime-
ly passing away has thrown gloom
of sorrow over the village where he
was born and bred and where he was
respected and loved. Tho he had suf-
fered for many years from tubercu-
losis in his foot and there had been a.
gradual decline in his health for some
time, yet the end came very suddenly
and unexpected following hemorr-
hage of the lungs about four o'clock
Friday afternoon.
Elmer Peter Eckman was the Oldest
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Lewis Eckman
and was born February II, 1887. He
had his schooling at New London, but
attended also one year at the Willmar
Seminary. He was member of the
Swedish Lutheran church and was
confirmed May 81, 1902, by Rev. G. J.
Collin.
Elmer was very musical and quite
mechanical and musical by nature. AS
mere boy he organized a juvenile
band at New London with signal sue
cess. At eighteen he went to Mime
apolis where he worked in the North
western Casket Company's shops. He
began the study Of architecture on the
side and later was employed for one
year in an architects Office in Mime
apolis. But in 1910 he came home
an infection of long standing in his
heel had begun to trouble him more
and more. Since then he has devoted
himself to long and persistent effort
to overcome the disease which had tax.
en- a foot,hold in his system. AS a
pastfme he applied himself to photog
raphy and music, organizing the pres
ent splendid New London band two
years ago.
Last January he decided to try the
state sanitorium at Walker, staying
there two months without apparent
benefit.
He is mourned by his parents, BY
one brother, Lawrence; three sisters
Ethel, Edith and Adeline; large mum
Der of other relatives and q host o
friends.

Peel Off Your Freckles

To remove freckles, blotches or any
complexion difficulty, the best thing
to do is to remove the skin itself. This
is easily and harmlessly done by the
application OF ordinary mercolized
wax. The wax peels off the defective
outer skin, little each day, gradually
bringing the second layer of skin to
view. The new skin is beautifully
soft, clear. white and young looking
Just procure an ounce of mercolized
wax at any drug store and use like
cold cream.

MAY Saw Mood.

Clear Lake.-That prisoners in the
lails of Deuel. county and other counties
of this district be provided, among
other things, with piles of four-foot
wood and saw-bucks and buck-saws, is
the recommendation made by Judge G.
G. Sherwood, of the state circuit court
of the third circuit. The idea of Judge
Sherwood is that the prisoners, when
not otherwise employed at manual lab
or, shall be required to saw wood as
one of the best forms of useful exer-
else. This and other recommendations
for the rules to be applied to the jails
of his circuit are made in accordance
with state statute, which makes it
the duty of circuit judges to provide
rules for the regulation of the jails in
their several counties.

Effort to Divide Meade County.

Pierre.-Another effort will be made
this year to divide Meade county. Al
the last effort in that direction, nc
action was secured on account of the
local jealousies, one list wanting Q
three-county division and the other g
two-county, and between them they
failed to get anywhere. This year it is
to be a two-county proposition. Under
existing conditions some towns are al
most one hundred miles from the coun.
ty seat at Sturgis, across country, and
a trip by rail when the roads are not
practical is longer than trip from
either the railway towns in the east to
the west. than trip to Chicago, it be.
ing necessary to go by way of Mo.
