The hollow building tile, which is
being manufactured here under Mr..

ated at the road south of R. McLane's
although Mr.. MuraIt told him to come
on to his place, and he would send him

stopped and went into The little house,
where tie evidently went TO sleep and
when he awoke both bis feet were
frozen and he was unable to go any
farther. In this condition, helpless,
he remained until last evening when
he was discovered by Jas. Sullivan
who notified Erland Carlson, Weick-
lund's brother-in-law, who brought
him to the hospital here. He is natur-
ally in a very weak condition, in fact
it is remark able that he is still alive.
Both his feet were frozen solid to
above the ankle, and in all probability
will have to be amputated. "Little

ing made his home in this vicinity for
a number of years and his many

Down with King Gasoline

Ortonville Journal: Considerable
interest was created Wednesday after
noon in this city when Professor Carl
Yarger gave a demonstration of new
chemical, that when mixed with water,
will replace gasoline for combustion
engine purposes. The demons tratiOn
was given at the Park garage and
the local automobile owners were all
on hand to see what the chemical
would do. M. E. Russell, who recently
bought Bonanza Grove up the lake was
with the Professor, and drove the car
that the test was made with. Owing
to the fact that the chemist is of Ger
man descent and could not do justice in
explaining the working of the chemi-
cal, another demonstration will be
given in the near future.
The mixture that was used in the
demonstration yesterday was in liquid
form, but at the next demonstration
he will use the condensed crystal
powder. When the chemical is placed
on the market, it will be possible to
carry enough, it is claimed, in the
tool box of car to make 100 gallons.
Mr.. Yarger has been working on
this chemical for the past four years,
and it is only recently that he has
given demonstrations. The intention
was to use the powder form yesterday,
but owing to the fact that several
demonstrations were given in the
cities, where number of prominent
men are backing the chemist, he did
not have sufficient amount of the pow
der with him.

New York Is Largest CITY

Thief River Falls News-Press: The
largest city in the world has been
the source of contention in this city
for about week past, in the CONNER
cial club and at various places. To
settle the argument the News-Press
has been appealed to and the following
result was obtained from the Worlds
almanac for 1916.
New York City .......... s, 253. 1856
London ...................4,5 22, 1854
This change was brought about last

its suburbs from the city proper and
thus gave the American city the titu-

! A thousand times | have heard rich
women say: cob! youth is SO wonderful
and lovely. I would give everything |
possess for youth and beauty again."
NO woman with the slightest spark of
pride or ambition in her wants to be laid
on the shelf, aged. Careworn, wrinkled
and forgotten so that men wish to avoi |
her at every dance and dinner party,
and women themselves would like to IN
Vte someone who looks younger to
brighten up the occasion. Yet there is no
longer any reason why the average wo-
man need look so old and plain even if
she is old.
Since the remarkable discovery of skin
osmosis almost any woman can obtain
most astonishing new beauty and Almost
surprisingly youthful appearance even
though She is 40 or 80 or more wears Of
age. The Countess de Chevanne who at
20 years of age possesses a marVelousiV
soft. smooth. velvet like skin and an al
most girl-lke complexion without
wrinkle in sight. told the writer person
ally in Paris that she owed it all to the
discovery of skin osmosis. With this
marvellous discovery every complexion
blemish can be banished in three nights
/ in many instances and you can awaken
in the morning with beautiful. rose
colored complexion fresh as a daisy.
! | have known dozens of hollow-Cheeked
wrinkled, aged-looking women. who had
given up all hope of ever looking beautl-
full and youthful again. to come back
and again become most beautiful, youth
full and fascinating in from two to three
weeks time by this wonderful simple
method.
30 matter what Your age or what Won
have tried unsuccessfully, skin osmoss
will positively bring you new beauty and
youth Merely wash your face in warm
water at night and rub in teaspoontul
of two of any good roseated cream which
YOU can obtain from your druggists. In
tie morning wash the face with cold
water and rub in more cream.

on the Griswold section of the Bangor
&. Aroostook Railroad. On the day OF
the accident he asked off and went by
train from Griswold to Smyrna Mills,
arriving at the latter place at 1.55 +.
NJ. While there he became intoxicated.
1t Is not known whether Ewing leaned
against the door or attempted to open
it and pass through. In any event, ne
had no business there. and the acci-
dent appears to have been due entirely
to his intoxicated condition.
ut does not appear that the employ
es of the station were 1nreasonably
delinquent in trying to get him out OF
danger. No other train movement was
expected, and they could hardly be
expected to anticipate that he would
manage to tumble down the cellar
stairs while they were telephoning for
a team. They acted with reasonable
diligence, and exhibited as much pa
thence and persistence as could have
been expected under the circum-
stances.
