MAGIC TRICKS TAUGHT.
Learn to Mistify Your Friends by
Magic.

1t is always a pleasing and most
welcome variation in a program,
whether at a society or home enter
tainment, when some one steps forth
and performs few mystifying tricks
- be it with cards, coins, handker-
chiefs, or other articles at hand. But
also in the home circle, and in the
everyday concourse with friends,
does tricks of this kind afford an ex-
cellent diversion; and it is a most eff
fective means il driving away gloon
and dull care from any gathering.
Besides the amusement and diver
sion it affords its devotee, the study
of magic as an art also iastructs,
sharpens the memory and the power
of observation, and develops a quick
ness of thought, eye, and hand as 40
other study.
am going to give instruction in
'Parlor Magic"-especially with
1cards-this winter, to classes of from
2 to 6, or to single pupils, as desired.
l shall teach the different sleights re-
CURED in the execution Of the best
tricks with cards, and also tricks
requiring no slight of hand, so that
the pupil can begin, even after the
first lesson, to mystify his friends.
The more brilliant effects will be
taught as the pupil becomes prof.
cient in the required sleights.
use no textbooks, which, at best,
give difficult explanations of tricks
and effects that are often impractical
BILE in actual execution. Each trick is
performed before the class, then the
modus operandi is shown in detail,
whereupo1 the pupils go through the
different moves until the trick is mas
tered and they get the knack Of pre-
senting it.
Evening classes only. / invite any
one interested to see me and arrange
hours.

What Cushman X. Davis Said

Speaking of what a newspaper
does for its community the late Unit
ed States Senator Cushman X. DAVIS
of Minnesota, made an address that
will forever remain green In the
memories of newspaper men. he
said:
each year every local paper gives
from $500 to $4,000 in free lines TOT
the benefit of the community IN
which it is located. No other agency
can or will do this. The editor, IN
proportion to his means, does more
for his town than any other man, anu
with all fairness, man with man, ne
ought to be supported, not because
YOU happen to like him or admire ms
writings, but because local paper is
the best investment community can
make. Today the editors of local pa
pers do more work for less pay than
any men on earth. Patronize your 10
cal paper, not as charity, but as an
investment.

Sheriff ElIingsOn Patriotic.

Sheriff Ellingson of Winneshiek
county is not only good officer but
he is patriotic to the limit of his
means. He purchased a bond of the
first Liberty Loan issue for himself
and when the second issue of 1917
was started he purchased eleven
more bonds, one each for himself and
and ten children. And when we think
OF the large family he has we are
constrained to say that he is not
bent on the destruction of humanity
or his own interests; and the strug-
giles attendant upon adequately pro-
viding for and bringing up of his
Rooseveltian family add distinction
to his illustrious deed and bears out
the old saying: Where there's a
will there's a way" -Ossian Bee.

KEEPING A PIG.
Remember the Time When Most of
Us Kept One i'm the Back
Yard.

Mr.. Hoover says we are all to
keep a pig. Well, we'll, we'll! How
this does bring back our boyhood!
How well we recollect the subterra-
mean porker Dad used to maintain,
or the famous pen at our country
cousins. Any live boy has peculiar
feeling for the pig. He doesn't have
to be prohibited the privilege of dig
ging in the dirt. Nor does he have to
be sent up stairs with bread and
water for putting his feet in the
trough.
And then those joyous days when
the pig escaped his pen, and the
whole neighborhood dropped their
regular occupations and joined the
chase. That was some sporting event.
Just why they have to grease pig at
picnic races is not clear. His soft
and slippery hair is elusive enough
without any external application.
And then the fellows speed. Who
would dream that such short and
spindle legged creature could dis
lance the runners Of the neighbor-
hood? And that quirky and abbrevi-
ated tail, so many times grasped, so
often slipping through your fingers.
Then there was the Juvenile pas
time Of poking Master Pig with a
fish pole, understood in the boy
would be an excellent promoter OF
exercise and digestion on his part.
No country home was complete Tor
the boy then without him, and there
was loneliness when he was gone.
Our modern towns are too parior-
fed for keeping pig. We are TOO
fearful of the barnyard odors on
which our fathers grew fat. But the
pig is not necessarily dirty. When
cleaned up for cattle show, he has
his own silvery or dusky beauty. But
we stick him in dirt and pour swirl
over him and then blame him for
being a hog. But we need his meat
and in villages and suburban dis
tricts there are many who could well
follow Mr.. Hoover's suggestion.
