WHERE WILD FOWL BREED
Yukon River and the Lakes of That
Hyperborean Region Favored
Spot of Many Birds.

Until the acquisition of Alaska by
the United States it was a wonder
where certain wild fowl went when
they migrated from temperate chimes
on the approach of summer as we'll as
snOwbirds and other small species of
the feathered tribe. 1t was after
ward found, observes q writer in the
Kansas City Journal, that their hab-
itat in summer was the waters OF
Alaska-the Yukon river and the lakes
of that hyperbOrean region.
People wonder where the wild fowl
come from. They see the sandhiil
crane, the wild goose heron and other
fowl every spring and fall pursue
their unwearied way, but like the wind,
they do not know whence they come
or whittier they go.
Up on Golovine bay, on the north
side of Norton sound, is the breeding
place of these fowls. All the birds
in creation, seemingly, go to that coun-
try to breed. Geese, ducks, swans
and thousands upon thousands Of sand
hill cranes are swarming there all the
time. They lay their eggs in the blue
stem grass in the lOwlands.
Myriads of robins and swallows are
there, as well as millions of magnifi-
cent grouse, wearing red combs and
feather moccasins. This grouse turns
as white as snow in winter.
You can kill dozens of teal ducks
or grouse as fat as butter balls in q
few moments. The wild fowl and
bears live on salmon berries and
huckleberries, with which the hills are
literally covered.

VALUE OF MUSICAL TRAINING
Sound Reasons Why Physicians Should
Have Thorough Knowledge of
Sound and of Rhythm.

The great value of musical training
to the practicing physician is pointed
out by DR.. Ernest Zueblin, associate
professor of medicine in the Univer-
sity of Cincinnati in an article con-
tributed to American Medicine. APP
probation of the pitch, intensity and
duration of sounds, and of rhythm,
which must be acquired by the must
clan in the study of his art, are also
necessary to the doctor, who is obliged
70 take note Of these same sound quail
tiles in making many of his diagnoses.
The objective signs of disease, DR..
Zueblin points out. are closely related
to acoustic phenomena, such as con-
ductivity, quality, tOnality, pitch, in
tensity, duration and rhythm. The
cOnductivity of sound. for instance, is
quite different in q normal lung from
one where there is fluid between the
lung and the chest wall. The quality
and tonality of sounds produced within
the lungs or heart, or transmitted
through the abdominal viscera, are
essential for the diagnostician. The
better the musical training, the sharper
the personal perception of the student,
tne more he will excel his competitors.

Interesting Life Statistics.

On the authority of experts repre-
senting forty-tnree leading life insur-
ance companies in the United States,
it appears that a spinSter lives longer
than married woman. Business wom-
en- live longer than business men. A
woman who takes an endowment pol
icy lives longer than a woman who
takes an ordinary life policy. 1t is not
easy to explain why an unmarried
woman survives a matren, nor why a
business woman survives a Dusi-
ness man, but the longevity of the
endowment woman is believed to be
due to the determination to live until
the policy natures. Will power is
hardly less important in many cases
than physique, and must always be
reckoned with. Even in disease a man
or woman possesses q natural tend
ency toward health, and cures which
often are attributed to medicine are
really the assertion of the will.-Cap-
per's Weekly.

RED MANS GOOD QUALITIES
AS a Race, and individually, the
American indian Has Proved
Capable of Many Things.

1t is very worth while to give the
Indian square deal. He has proved
himself capable of great things. Two
presidents of Peru have been Indians.
One of MeXico's greatest presidents
was an Indian, and Bolivia has had
at least one great Indian president.
One expects them to excel in warfare.
The Araucanian Lantare was the great
est military chieftain South America
has produced except San Martin, and
we have had Gen. John A. Logan and
Gen. Eli S. Parker. Numbers of our
senator's and congressman have been
proud of their Indian blood, and
Thomas G. MOffett, who knows the red
man well, says that sin the profession
al world today, on farms among
leaders in business affairs. the
Indian, educated and Christianized, is
taking his place; clever Indian law
yers are looking out for the interests
of their tribes; capable Indian physi-
clans are ministering to the needs OF
their own people; earnest Indian
preachers and teachers are spreading
among the reservations the seed of
the gospel message; aggressive Indian
agricultural experts are teaching the
younger generation how to improve
land and crops; the new Indian is
helping the forward movement activ-
tiles of his country
The white mans diseases and
vices have burdened the Indian, but
his schools, medicine, Christian NOR
ais and faith can, if he so wills it, lift
that burden and make his red brother
once again a free man.-Evengeline
Cole, in Worlds Outlook.

NIGHT SHADOWS IN RUSSIA
Penetrating Light Makes Sleep Impoa-
sbIe Unless the Traveller Carries
Blue Curtain.

The particular journey herein re-
corded fell on a white night in June
one of those eerie white nights against
which the Russian or Siberian trav-
eler carries a canny blue curtain,
Olive Gilbreath writes in the Yale Re"
view.
Without these blue guards sleep Is
out of the question and the senses, pur-
sued by the penetrating light, are
as ragged as the beggars staring
out of the stations. Verst after verst,
hour after hour the plain unwinds end
lessly, monotonously, like wool from
a skein. A pale incandescence hangs
over the earth, fringing objects ghost
ily. Trees blur in the half-light and
grow phenomenally large; izbas and
windmills scrape the sky. A tremor
of primitive terror runs through ones
limbs One calls to the hills for de"
liverance-but there is not even q rise
in the ground! With midnight springs
up a delusive promise of respite from
the light; a shadow creepS reaSSur'
ingly over the earth, but it is DUSK
and not darkness. There is no re-
prieve. At II the sun dips below the
horizon; at 2 80 1t balances again like
a replenished bag, splitting its orange
and amethyst flood over the earth. The
restless cycle has begun again, and
still the plain unwinds endlessly, mo-
notonously-brighdy now. At seven
one reaches Nizninovgorod. If it is
June, the sun has been up five hours.

Traits of Bird Lovers.

Years ago, during a winters visit
In London, I used to watch the per-
sons who regularly fed the birds in
Hyde park. / noticed that most of
them were people of apparently hum
BILE circumstances, few pretty close
to underfeeding themselves. 1t was
delightful to see how much pleasure
they all took in keeping these birds
from hunger.
Two that I saw each day for a
week or so, evidently husband and
wife, / ventured to speak to. Eagerly
they talked about the birds as they
might have talked about children,
noting and relishing individual char
acteristics.
1--WE have become SO fond of Them, .
said the wife. "They recognize us
now, many of them, and a few come
to us quite fearlessly. We should
feel quite uncomfortable if we should
miss a day. They are like members
of the family that have to be cared
or.''-Exchange.

FORT ATKINSON

Several Stoughton young men got
''in bad' here Sunday. After an all
night session with Jefferson beer mixed
with Old Grow they came to this city
to sober up. The police force was mott
fed and after Kidding them of case of
Heger's best and five pints of whiskey,
ordered the polluted outfit to ''move
on"
Chief of Police Rose has written to
Madison in an effort to locate the own
er of the Ford car that crashed into a
rig occupied by Mr.. and Mrs. Tony
Waleski and child on the Whitewater
road Sunday afternoon. The car was
loaded with five young men. Mrs.
Waleski was tipped out of the buggy
and injured.
1t is long time since we have seen
grain crops and new seeding of clover
and alfalfa look as promising as they
do at the present time. Those who got
their corn planted early and had strong,
vital seed are having a fine stand.
Late rains have hindered late planting
of corn and at this date there is quite
a large acreage not yet in the ground.
But with warm growing weather and a
late fall we will get heavy corn crop
in southern Wisconsin. Tee prospects
for heavy yield of barley and oats are
remarkably good. The same may be
said of spring wheat, of which there
was an unusually large amount sown.
The discovery of the lifeless form of
Albert Klug Jr. near the river bank in
the rear of the knitting mills on We'd
nesday morning proved the sensation
of the present week. The local author
tiles and District Attorney A. L. STEM
gel were at once notified and the re-
mains token to Downing's undertaking
rooms. From a note found upon the
body, there was no doubt that the
young man had taken his own life and
coroner's inquest was therefore I'M
necessary. The note stated that AL
bert Klug Jr. was about to take his
own life by jumping into the river.
However, investigation of the. body
proved that he had swallowed the con-
tents of two-ounce bottle of carboiic
acid and he had succumbed before be-
ing able to jump into the water.

johnson as Literary Autocrat.

The Great Cham of Literature was
a term formerly general in it's ap-
plicatiOn to Samuel Johnson, arising
from a reference to that quaint and
autocratic master of letters in a~let-
ter from Doctor SmOllett to John
Wilkes in 1859. The term suggests
the Great Cham sometimes Cham of
Tartary whom many writer's of that
day employed as a figure typifying
despotism. In the letter referred to-,
however, the term is used somewhat
ironically, for the so-called Great
Cham had appealed to Smollett to Sc
cure the discharge of his negro serv-.
ant from the navy and it was through
Wilkes, who had nursed a grudge
against Johnson, that the discharge
was procured. Smollett's inference
was that under such circumstances
the Great Cham was humble man.

CORRESPONDENCE


Miss Rachel Coon has returned from
her school duties at Moorehead, Mimi.
and Miss Beth Davis from Athens, Wis.
Herbert Lester Babcock, little son of
DR.. Lester M. and Anna Crumb Bah
cock, was born in Milton, Wis, June
26, 1915. He died in the hospital at
Madison, Wis, June 1, 1918.
Mrs. Thos. Langworthy passed her
ninetieth birthday anniversary Wednes-
day and in recognition of the event her
daughter, Miss Angie, invited in a
number of her relatives for little
while in the afternoon. The affair was
a complete surprise to the guest of
honor and greatly enjoyed by her.
1t is quite strange how little we know
of what our near neighbors are doing.
Wholesale freight car robberies have
: been going on right in Milton Junction
for some time and no one ever sus-
pected it until detectives of the St.
Paul road began investigation. Stan
ton Marinsky, an innocent looking Pol
lock, who has been living in a discarded
box car near the depot and working on
one of the sections, is now in the hands
of the federal officers as the result of
the lnVeSClgaClon.
Emergene Stone, only daughter of
Julius and Huldah Beach Stone, was
born at Byron, Genesee county, N. Y,
Dec. %, 1843. At the age of three
years she, with her parents, came to
Rock county, Wis, where she contin-
ued to reside for more than seventy
years, with the exception of about nine
years spent at Dayton, Green county,
Wis. In 1867 she was united in marri-
age with Geo. B. Mackey. They began
their life work on the Mackey farm
one mile west of the village of Milton
Junction, Wis, where they resided
over thirty years, retiring in 1898 to
Milton Junction. Mrs. Mackey had al
ways enjoyed good health until her 18th
birthday, Dec %, 1917, when she was
suddenly stricken with paralysis, which
after five months proved fatal, her
death occurring May %, 1918.

Frost as a Finish.

Frost gets a lot of blame when it
kills off certain fruits and Withers GER
tain plants. Blackberries lose their
lusciousness, and mushrooms fear to
bloom, yet the housewife has much to
he thankful for to Father Frost.
He it is who causes the celery to
have that delightful crispness. No
epicure would eat celery before it has
been frosted And what dame with
any knowledge would think of cutting
a red cabbage for picking before it
had been touched with the cold nip of
winter?
Many people refuse to eat Savoy
cabbages before they have been given
the sweetness of the frost, and pars-
nips have no flavor until they have
been similarly treated.
