to sleep, so she, after a hundred
years of busy life, flooded her hands
and in peaceful slumber entered her
eternal reward. The age she attain
ed was 100 years, 6 months and 1S
days. Her death occurred at the
home of her son, Charles II. Bloln-

While on a fishing trip to Sank
River, two miles from his farm home
Gordon Henry Lindberg, 20 year old
son of Ulrich Lindberg, last Sunday
met with peculiar accident and one
that has given him considerable pain
altho it is not thought that his burns
will result seriously. Henry, in COM
pany with Oswald Anderson and
Harold Bates, was preparing camp
dinner and making coffee in a tin
pail. They had punched a half doz-
en- holes in the cover of the pail which
fitted tightly, and the vent holes got
filled up with coffee grounds. Henry
was poking around the fire when the
coffee "pot" exploded, the boiling
coffee shooting some eigat feet IN
the air and striking the young man
squarely in the face, burning him
badly about the eyes. He walked to
his home in terrible pain and
was brought from there to the Park
Region hospital in Osakis where he
is doing nicely and is able to about
town this morning. 1t is not thought
that the burns will leave any pecma-
nent scars.-Osakis Review.

boys are determined to beat the high
cost of living and all have agreed
that they look real smart in their
new SUITS
It is rumored that the girls also
are contemplating doing something
in the same line, but as yet we have
not heard that they have decided on
anything definite. -Glenwood Her
