Suit Brought on Three
Forfeited Bail Bonds

Minot, N. D., March 20.-Actions
have been started by States Attor-
ney O. B. Herigstad to recover on
three criminal bonds which were
forfeited in the county court by
criminals who fled from the juris-
diction of the court before their
trials came on. The suits were
filed in the cases of the state against
H.. Bartling. for selling liquor; A.
Butts, a check artist, and William
Blarnon for gambling.
There has been an idea among a
lot of the cheap criminals and other
disreputable characters that if ar
rested they could put up straw
bond and then get away without
any inconvenience. This same idea
has prevailed among number of
people who were willing to go bail
for this class of criminals.

rible of which was the assertion
that her husband compelled his son.

beaten at intervals over period OF
four years. was the woman's charge.

E.. O. Nehring, the popular pro-
prietor Of the Motor Inn, who some
weeks ago predicted that automo-
biles would be running everywhere
without any trouble on March 18th.
and which prediction did not core
true, is now being called upon near
ly every day to explain how it hap
oened that he made a mistake. To
The Tribune he stated that he never
before in his life made a prediction
of the weather, and is now willing
to admit that even the most intelli-
gent person can make an error. He
seems to have only one consolation
and that is that his predictions have
come true just as often as those OF
A. Ward. who has made a study OF
the weather for many years.

McCluskey, March 22.-The first
passenger train arrived in the city
last Friday mors1ng, being the
first one that has honored McClus-

not in such bad shape as one might
think, as the branch of the North

Some Wedding Ways.

GoOdby to the plain gold band, at
least for awhile. The really smart
bride now wears band Of platinum
set close with diamonds or merely a
plain band of chased or filigree plati~
mum. Hoops of platinum set with one
kind of gems-rubies, emeralds, sap
phires, as the case may be-are surely
unusual as the symbol of 'the tie that
binds" Green gold, the latest metal
fad in jewelry, is fashioned in plain
chased bands for the same dignified
purpose.
1t is something of change to have
the bridesmaids garbed with short wells
instead of hats or bonnets. The GUS
tom is n pretty one when properly car
ried out. The veil may be square of
hemstitched chiffon, bound pointwise
ON the head with circlet of pearl
beads or band of metal ribbon.

brim conv0lutes around the head in

it were not made by an expert it would
be utterly impossible for any woman
to wear. Every line of it must be nice

Good milk will make good teeth, for
it makes teeth for calves. Good meat
will, for it makes them for young lions
and wolves. Good vegetables, nuts and
fruits will, for 1t makes them for mon
keys. Good corn, oats. barley, wheat,
rye, and indeed everything that grows,
will make good teeth if taken in their
natural state, no elements being taken
out, for every one of them makes good
teeth for horses and cows.
But starches and sugars and lard and
adulterated foods will not make good
teeth; therefore wise mother will
keep from very young children pastry.
white bread, cakes and tea and will
give them instead good milk, whole
wheat bread, cereals, meat, eggs ripe
fruit, vegetables and nuts and will do
well to see that these helps are given
them early enough.
Every mother should remember that
the duty of giving her child useful and
strong teeth devolves upon her.

Hot Water Bags.

A few precautions taken with new
hot water bag and continued through
out its life will greatly prolong its days
of usefulness. TO begin with. buy the
bag from reliable dealer. Most bags
are guaranteed and are replaced with
new ones if there is any defect These
guarantees, of course, are not good If
you treat the bag harshly. But as soon
as you get a new bag home fill it with
hot water, screw in the top and look
it over carefully to see that there is no
leak and no other visible ;mperfeclion.
If there Is none and if the bag is Of
good quality it is your own fault it you
cannot tear up the guarantee as nor
