Natural Mortar Beds.

Who invented mortar? Some pre-
historic person, who in all likelihood
hit upon the combination by sheer
luck. The mortar used by the ancient
Greeks and Romans was the same
stuff that we use.
But nature was in advance of the
human discoverer by some millions of
years. In Texas and Kansas, extend
ing over vast areas, is a geological for
nation known in that region as the
mortar BEDS" It is a stratum COM
posed of sand, clay and lime, which,
originally fluid, has "set" and become
rock.
The process by which the sedi-
mentary rocks of the earth were
formed is successfully initiated in the
sidewalk pavement Of artificial stone,
which is spread in a moist condition
and allowed to dry. 1t is better for
the purpose than natural stone-made
in slabs larger than can be quarried
and often formed with grooves so as
to expand and contract without break.

CAME FROM DAMAGED STOCK
Idea of BIotting Paper Was the Direct
Result of Act of Careless
Workman.

Blotting paper, like many another
valuable discovery, was found entirely
by accident. One day in a paper mill
in Berkshire, England, a careless work
man forgot to put in the sizing and it
was necessary to throw out the entire
lot as spoiled. Later the angry pro-
prietor sat down to write B0te and
possibly for reasons Of economy used a
sheet of the condemned paper. To his
increased annoyance the ink spread all
over the paper and he was about to
give up in disgust when the thought
struck him that it might be possible to
use the paper for absorbing ink in
place of the sand then universally used.
After some successful experimenting
he was able to dispose of his entire
damaged stock under the name of blot
ting paper.
From that time on blotting paper
came into general use. At first it was
always pink in color, red rags being
used. Red was fast color and diff
cult to bleach, hence the red rags were
useless in manufacturing writing pa
paper. But as the color of blotting pa
per did not interfere with it's useful
ness, red or pink was as good a color
as any other, and thus provided
means of utilizing otherwise wasted
material.

BUNYAN ACTIVE TO THE END
His Last Years Busy Though Peace
full Ones and Death Result of
Act of SeIf-Sacrifice.

The closing years of the life of John
Bunyan were peaceful, unlike in that
respect the years that had gone before,
but they were busy years, devoted to
preaching, to the work Of pastor and
teacher. OF these closing years,
Froude, in his life of Bunyan," ed
tied by John Morley, writes, Happy
in his work, happy in the sense that
his influence was daily extending
spreading over his own country, and to
the far-off settlements in America, he
spent his last years in his own land
Of Beulah, Doubling Castle out OF
sight, and the towers and minarets OF
Emmanuel land growing nearer and
clearer as the lays went on"
His end was brought about by ex-
posure when he was engaged in an act
of charity. A quarrel had broken out
in a family at Reading with which
Bunyan had some acquaintance. The
father and son were at variance, and
In the hope of recOnciling them Bun
yam journeyed from Bedford to
Reading on horseback. He succeeded,
but at the cost of his life.
Returning by London, he was over
taken on the road by a storm of rain
and drenched to the skin. This
brought on a chill. He reached the
house of a London friend, Mr.. Strud-
wick, but he never left his bed after
ward. In ten days he was dead. The
exact date is uncertain. 1t was to-
wards the end of August, 1858, be-
tween two and three months before
the landing of King William. Bun
yam was sixty years of age. He was
buried in Mr.. Strudwick's vault in
the burying ground at Bunhill Fields.

Irvine l.. Lenroot was elected
U. S. Senator from Wisconsin by
10000. He is a Republican.
The Washington Administration
was particularly active in trying
to prevent the election of Lenro-
OF. The Vice-President, Thos.
E. Marshall, vacated hia chair
as president of the Senate to
make campaign speeches in Wis
consin in support of the Admin
istration candidatde, J. E. Da-
vies, Democrat. Vice-President
Marshall went so far as to advise
the Wisconsin Republicans that if
they wished to show their loyalty
to the President Of the United
States that they should vote the
Democratic ticket. This, Of
course, was rank politics, and we
are glad that the Republicans of
Wisconsin proved to Mr.. Marshall
that they are not to be duped-
not yet.

Shame Makes One Eornet.

Forgetting is strange phenomenon.
According to the modern psychologists,
we are most apt to forget those things
that we do not want to remember-es-
pecially those of which we are
ashamed.
In an address on criminals who are
on the border line of insanity, deliv-
cred recently before the Clinical So
ciety of st. Elizabeth's Hospital, Wash
ington, DR.. Leon Emile Duval told of
many mentally unbalanced men who in
their normal state could not remember
disgraceful deeds they had done, and
said this was to be explained on the
basis that 'ft is the thing Of which we
are ashamed and which conflicts with
the customs of society which is soonest
relegated to the realm of the uncon-
scious."

"The Sin Woman" n"

Few men in the film world are
better known than M. H. Hoff-
man, who is releasing the big
production, "The Sin Woman, "
which comes to the Jen-Dike
Theatre on April 13, Saturday
night.
AS General Manager of Ex-
changes for the Universal Film
Manufacturing Company, and
organizer of the world-renown-
ed Bluebird Photoplays, he needs
no introduction to the public.
He is one of the most enterpris-
ing and ingenious men in the
moving picture industry.
"The Sin Woman" is the first
release under the FoursQuare
trademark, which is the stand
ard of quality Mr.. Hoffman has
established for the pictures he
will distribute. A picture to be
exploited under this brand must
have all the qualities necessary
to make it a Foursquare. The
public will never be disappointed
when they see picture advertis-
ed with the Foursquare trade
mark on it. For such a feature
stands for the best story, the
best players, the best direction
and the Hoffman policy, which
is the best.
In ''The Sin Woman" we see
an old theme treated in an Origi-
nal manner and told in an in
structive, amusing and entertain
ing way. 1t is a story which had
it's conception way back in the
days of Eden, but the authors
have given it a modern touch
which greatly enhances and in
terests the audience. There is
not one dull moment in the entire
seven parts, and the fact that
the production comes to this city
direct from Broadway, where it
had a most successful run, and
was proclaimed by press and
public alike as one of the biggest
hits of the present season, should
attract a large crowd to the Jen-
Dixie Theatre, Snowflake. Satur-
day night, April 13. Admission
25 and 35 cents.

Tremendous Speed.

Illuminate of mercury, which is

SOLDIERS BRING HOME VICTORY
ATLANTA Georgian)


Briefly in previous editorial we
have pointed out to young men in the
army that much fighting is done with
the teeth.
We no longer fight our enemy, seiz-
ing him by the ear while we strangle
him in the old fashion of animals and
savages. But we do fight him with
the strength given to us by our food ;
chew it, prepare it for digestion, and
thus with those weapons called teeth
give to the body the good blood and
the strength with which fighting is
done.
Good digestion depends on good
teeth.
Good eyesight depends on good di-
gestion.
You may truly say that a man sees
with his teeth, as he fights with his
teeth.
Going into the army, with change
of food, of water, Of life habits, care
of the teeth is extremely important
and at the same time apt to be ne
elected.
Many young men are together IN
close quarters; they work hard from
daylight in the morning until they are
exhausted in the evening. No wonder
their inclination is to throw them
selves on their cots in the tents with
The Ward County independent. [volume] (Minot, Ward County, N.D.) 1902-1965, 1918-03-07

Ward county farmers have begun to
haul out feed for their stock, from a
supply bought by the county. Three
car loads of oats on the track at Mi
not became available Wednesday, at
ter the county commissioners had all
lowed certain applications. Wherever
possible, the farmers were notified by
phone to appear for the feed. Twenty
cars in all are in transit to Ward
county points, or have arrived and
this is but beginning; The three
Minot cars contain 1900 bushels,
representing about $1,000 of the coun-
TVS money. Some difficulty was ex-
perienced in securing rolling stock
to carry the grain to Ward county, as
orders had been received from the
government to release cars only for
the purpose Of moving wheat and wet
corn.
