STATE LEGION WANTS
COMPLETED HERO LIST
OF MINNESOTA SOLDIERS
Every Post in State Has Been.
Asked to Make a Complete
District Report

st. Paul, June 23.-The Minnesota.
department of the American Legion
has commenced a statewide effort TO
obtain a complete list of Minnesota
service men who gave their lives for
their country.
The Minnesota Historical society is
anxious to preserve the record. Every
post in the state has been urged to
make a complete report for it's dist
riot and to offer supplementary in
formation. "
''We have only heard from a frac-
ton of the posts in Minnesota" said
Horace G. Whitmore, department adj
jutant, today. when every post has
reported the hero dead from its dis
trict we will feel quite confident that
our list is close to completion. It is
unnecessary to say that the Mime
sofa Historical Society is preparing
to give the list a leading place in its
memorials"

The Alley Dog.

An alley dog they called him, tramp and worse things still. Stones they flung at him. On their porches in the evening they abused him and plot ted against his life. And all because he was ownerless and unkempt in his tawny shagginess. But, with all their stone throwing and brandishing of sticks, he ambled good-naturedly along and sought the company of the chii- dren, who knew not his reputation among righteous citizens and loved him in spite of his dirty coat He played with them until unappreciative grownups chased him away.
 And then one day his whole life changed. With a group of his child mates he went to the nearby river. He watched them prepare for a swim. Sud denly he noticed that one was strug- gling hard. He leaped into the river. What happened after that he no longer knows. He knows only that the little boy was saved and that he is now a respected member of the little boys family.
 No longer is he called an alley dog. No more do irate men plot his death. He used to wonder why. Now he has ceased to wonder. He merely rests his cool, moist nose on contemplative paws-content at last at having come into his own.-Milwaukee Journal.

The French academy, which devotes long sittings to the task of keeping the French language absolutely cor rect, and which regards all foreign words introduced into the language with horror, has just made an excep- ton fn favor of an English word, which is henceforward to have place in the official dictionary of France, says the London Telegraph. This Is the word gentleman" which is very frequently used in modern writing and conversation rather than the time- honored gentllhomme. which ordinar- fly means nobleman, but which, in the new edition of the dictionary, IS to be described as meaning "a man who without being noble by race, has lofty sentiments. elegant manners, and does noble acts" With regard to the word

HEART REVIVED BY MASSAGE
pr. Petit of Buenos Aires Performs Remarkable Feat onWoman Patient
 Who Recovers After Long Fight.

! Doctor Petit of Buenos Aires was shocked on making an incision In woman's abdomen to find that no blood flowed and that his patient was pulseless. She had collapsed under the chloroform. Artificial respiration had no effect. Caffeine was injected both under the skin and into the veins with no result.
 The surgeon then extended the in- cision he had made, inserted his hand and took hold of the woman's heart to massage it He squeezed the heart with both hands, but at first 1t did not respond All at once powerful con- traction was felt, followed by others. The massage was stopped, but had to be resumed at once The contractions reappeared but the massage was con- tinued and inhalations of oxygen were given. At last the patient was out of danger.
 She remained unconscious for long time, and when she recovered had no idea how close she had been to

Vanishing Indian Language.

Nowhere in America has there been such a diversity of Indian languages as in California. But these languages are now rapidly disappearing. Sey- eral of them are known only by five or six, and others by only 20 or 30 living persons, and hardly year passes without some dialect, or even lan- guage, ceasing to exist, through the death of the last individual able to speak it. Efforts are being made to re- cord all these languages for the sake of the light they throw on the ancient history of the Pacific coast-Sun and New York Herald.
