aHaIcyon DAYS"

The seven days preceding and the
seven days following the winter sol
stice, which falls on Dec p or %, were
the <halcyon days of the old world. In
modern dictionary halcyon has come
to be synonym for idyllic, peaceful
or happy, but among the ancients 1t
was the name Of bird now called
the kingfisher, and the IA days nearest
the winter solstice were called halcyon
days because it was at that period that
the bird deposited her eggs on the
rocks by the margin of the sea, or in
a floating nest in the midst Of the
waters. Out Of consideration for the
halcyon bird, which was supposed to
be favored by the gods, it was ex-
oected that the sea would remain calm,
that the eggs might not suffer injury.
The superstition persisted in spite OF
the storms that often prevailed at that
period, some of the ancient writer's at
tributing to the kingfisher the power
Of arresting the violence Of the waves.

eyes, sir, I certainly can recon-
mend Tanlac, for, to be perfectly
frank about it, I don't believe I
would be alive to day if I had not
taken it," said Daniel F. McHugh,
1413 North Fourth st. West, Cedar
Rapids, Iowa, while discussing the
merits of Tanlac recently. Mr.. Nc
Hugh has wide circle of friends.
He is a member of local No. Sc
Brotherhood Of Railway Trainmen,
had been local chairman of the
grievance committee of the G.. r.
| I. & P. Railway for twelve years,
and is also publisher of ''Trainmen's
Standard Rules" which has a wide
circulation among railroad workers.
Continuing, he said:
s9Tanlac has not only relieved me
of my suffering but have gained
twelve pounds in weight besides. For
four years I have suffered from
catarrh Of the stomach and a general
nervous breakdown, and have also
been troubled with my kidneys a
great deal. I could not eat the least
thing without having dreadful pains
in my stomach and the pressure OF
gas against my heart would cause il
to palpitate something terrible and
at times I would turn so deathly sick
would have to sit down to keeI
from faintinf. My nerves were in
an awful condition, and even the
rustling of newspaper would com
pletely upset me. My condition
finally became so bad I had to quit
work and was confined to my bed fol
three months.
During these four years triee

ing Of retiring and now is the time j
should prepare for it.
Bill: That's a good thought and
one that should be acted upon by all
of us. AS 80 men out of 100 at the
age of 60 are dependent upon others
for their support, a little self denial
and care in earlier years is necessary
to insure independence.
was in st. Cloud few days ago
and met John B.. You remember
him, don't you?
Yes, / do.
John told me he bought 20 shares
of the Public Service stock with
money he received from a mortgage
that was paid off. He said that he
felt secure in buying 100 investments
now, as money rates were high and
the Public Service stock was as
sound an investment as he could
wish for. John likes the quarterly
dividends.
Well, think great deal Of Johns
opinion. He makes quite a study of
financial conditions and we must adj
NIT that he has profted by his know
ledge.
By the way, Bill, have you heard
about Company called the Farmers
Light and Power Company.
Yes, I have. The Farmers Light
and Power Company is affiliated with
the st. Cloud Public Service Com
pany., 1t was organized for the pur-
pose Of providing electric light and
power to farms throughout their ter
ritory. Branching out from the var
ious substations the Farmers Light
and Power Company will build lines
to the Farmers who desire this ser
vice. It is no longer necessary for
the Farmer to install expensive indi-
vidual systems that depreciate rapid
ly. OF course the company cannot
afford to provide the service to iso-
lated farms, but three or four farms
a mile on the feed lines can secure
the service on very favorable terms.
In time expect that net work Of
lines will cover the entire Public
Service territory. Of course, all this
makes rour,, investment in the stock
that much better. .94EN@D ,14sll
have written down a few reasons
why the stock is good investment
for residents of the territory served.
I will read you some of them.
