Miss Florence Dunnell eldest daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. VIM. Dunnell, and
p. Algred Durbhan, of Hastings, Mimi,
were united in marriage last Thursday
afternoon at o'clock at the home Of the
brides parents in Eastwood Park
The bride was attired in a becoming
afternoon gown of Georgette with coral
beading and carried shower of sun
burst flowers. She descended the stairs
on the arm Of her father, being met at
the landing by the groom, who led her
to an archway entwined with ferns and
smilax. The ceremony was performed
by Rev. c. L. Clifford, who used the im-
pressive ring service.
A dainty buffet luncheon was served
in the living room by Miss Grace Dun
nell, only sister of the bride, and Miss
Velma Webster.
The newlyweds will spend a month at
one of the Minnesota lakes after which
they will make their home at Hastings,
Mimi. where the groom holds the posi-
tion of superintendent Of schools.
The bride has resided in Minot for
years, graduating from the local high
school in 1912. Later she attended the
Hamline university in st. Paul and Tor
the past two years has been connected
with the Minot Flour Mill, with her
father. Minot regrets the departure OF
one of its most estlmable young women.
The groom Is a graduate OF the Ham.
lin university and was recently dis
charged from service in the war, being

Public Must Prepare for High Prices

Mrs Wiser of the Wiser Co., re-
turned from New York Sunday where
she placed orders for her fall and win.
ter stocks Of ready-to-wear. Mrs. Will
ser has been gone for three weeks and
during her stay in the east had an op-
portunity to study the market condf-
tions as few buyers enjoy who spend
but a few days in the metropolis Mrs.
Wiser says that prices this ason will
prices for merchandise is now greater
than the same goods retailed at last
season. The manufacturers give the
increased wage paid employees as well as
the increased cost of raw material as be-
ing responsible for the rise on the mar
-ket. They account for the increased
wage in the fact that immigration from
Europe has been at d standstill for the
past four wears. and that the home
supply has been curtailed by the with
drawal of men for service in the army
and in. the creation of new industries
for the production of supplies. Short
tionately higher level of all prices have
an influence also In some quarters
there are rumors to the effect that there
is profiteering in raw materials, q criti-
clsm that perhaps has good grounds for
the currency it has gained. Whatever
the causes, high prices obtain in every
line and it is UP to the public to be pre-
pared to pay them. Mrs. Wiser ow-
ing to the fact that she has visited the
market regularly for the past ten years
was able to secure many bargains that
her purchases will be in a revelation
to the hundreds of lady customers Of
this busy store when the new garments
arrive.

YOUNG MEN CHARGED
WITH Tire Stealing
Three Local Young Fellows in the
TOils-TwO Men Arrested Charg.
ed With Receiving Stolen Goods.

Louis Racine, Delbert Ball and Lee
DeLair, three local young men, were
placed under arrest charged with
stealing automobile tires and Allie
Bondley and George Shank, two Minot
men, were arrested charged with re-
celving stolen property.
Bondley was given a preliminary
hearing and the man was bound over
to district court. Shank's hearing is
on today and he will undoubtedly be
bound over. The three young men have
waived examination.
About ten days ago, tire and rim
were stolen from the rear of Ed Ros-
ems car in his garage. The young
men, who were later arrested, were
seen driving that evening in the vicin-'
ity of the Rosen home and they were
called on the carpet by the police.
They admitted their guilt and said
that they had sold the tire, which was
worth SAT, to Bondley and Shank for
$1,000, the men evidently desiring to
engage in q very profitable, tho risky
business. The men were hailed before
the police and told to bring the tire
with them. They had it cached in
coulee near the 500 round house and
came into the police station Juggling it
along. Another stolen tire which they
had bought was also located. Several
other tire thefts have been reported,
a spare tire being stolen from Mrs.
Phil Myers car out at Wildwood.

MRS. MCKINNEY
GAINS II POUNDS
Eats What She Pleases and Sleeps
Like Child Now, Says Minne-
apOlis Woman.

II never thought l would let my
name be used in connection with med
icine, but if it had not been for Tanlac
l would still be a sick woman and l
feel that ought to try to help others
by telling. them about it," said Mrs.
j. F. McKenney, who resides at 1921
Cedar Ave-, Minneapolis, recently, in
statement in which one of the bene-
fits received described is gain of
seventeen pounds.
II had been suffering from stomach
trouble for five years." she continued,
"and had almost despaired Of ever get
ting relief. My appetite was very
poor and l always suffered so much
pain in my stomach after meals that
| had gotten almost afraid to eat any
thing. Ny food would ferment and
the gas from it would press on my
heart until | would just have to fight
for breath. | often had nervous, sick
headaches and was very dizzy at
times. could hardly ever get a
good nights sleep, was very weak, and
always got up in the mornings feeling
as tired as when / retired at night.
In fact, that tired, worn-out feeling
was with me all the time and / hard
ly had strength to do my housework
Finally got to taking Tanlac on
the advice Of my daughter in Musko-
gee, Oklahoma. She told me of a min
ister there who said he did not believe
there was ever a case of stomach
trouble Tanlac would not relieve, and
the results in my case have convinced
me that he is right. Soon after l be-
gan taking it my appetite improved and
commenced to gain both in weight
and strength. My appetite is just fine
now, the gas has stopped forming on
my stomach, and l can eat what I
please and all l want without ever
having pain or an uncomfortable
feeling afterwards. I sleep just like
a child every night, get up in the
mornings feeling rested and refresh
ed.
When l began taking Tanlac I only
weighed one hundred and eighteen
pounds, but ! now weigh one hundred
and thirty-five, making an actual gain
of seventeen pounds. This is just
what six bottles Of Tanlac has done
for. me and there's nothing too good
for me to say for it."
Tanlac is sold in Minot by the Tay-
lor Drug Co., in Ryder by Geo. C.
Couch, in Kenmare by John L. We
mark and in Douglas by ]. J. Dona-
hue.
