SOPRANO KNOWN in
WAUSAU WINS BIG
CHICAGO OVATION

Having frequently visited friends in
Wausau some years ago and particu-
larry Mrs. Grace Book Overstreet, of
Minneapolis, formerly of this city, it
is interesting to learn of the tremend-
GUS impression made by Luella Chill
son-Ohrman, coloratura soprano, when
she appeared in her first American
concert at Orchestral hall, Chicago, on
October 18th. Her ovation there was
an unexpected surprise to music crit
les, who, though the press gave her
unusual comments.
Unusual Future
A future of unusual brilliance is now
predicted for Mrs. Chilson- Ohrman.
who returns from France using her
own name, Luella Meluis, fresh from
other successes in both opera and con-
cert after having coached with Jean
de Reszke, who, it is said, is most en-
thusiastic about the singer.
Local friends who know Luella Me-
luis say she has long been known to
possess very wonderful voice but
that she has evidently Just now ma
tured in her art
The Musical Courier in it's issue of
October 9th gives Nine Meluis atten-
ton such as it has accorded few more
celebrated artists.
Courier Comments
OF her concert at Chicago. The Cour-
Ter, making her appearance its lead
ing story for the week, SAYS: "A ire
mendous audience, tremendous sue
cess, tremendous program and one
of the greatest living coloratura So
pranos, barring on nationality, were
encountered at Orchestra hall on Tues
day evening, October Is. The date
will make history if the enthusiasm of
the audience, made up in large
measure of the foremost professional
musicians of Chicago, can be taken
as a criterion for the assured popula-
rity of a new star" The Courier
commented highly upon her stage de-
pertinent, her big" personality, and
added of her, ''of whom much can be

Food Must Give
Iron to Your Blood
This is Proven BY Astounding Results
Derived By Using Garren's
Tonic

| You eat three meals day to fur
nish your blood with the iron it must
have so it can nourish your nerves
and build healthy tissue to make you
strong and able to endure the work
you must do.
If your stomach cannot digest that
food and it remains in your stomach
and intestines to sour and ferment, It
causes Indigestion, constipation, ner-
vousness, headaches, and consequently
you become weak, thin and run
down..
To correct this trouble you should
take Natures own remedy made from
the most healthful roots, barks and
herbs, which is now placed in your
reach in the form of Garrens Tonic,
the preparation which is creating such
tremendous amount of interest all
over this country on account of the
remarkably quick results sick and suf-
fering people are getting from IT,
According to w. A. Garren, the moi
ed authority on health, this prepare
ton is the best product to successful
ly meet present day requirements
which is now to be had. And Judging
from the large number of people who
are publicly endorsing Garren's Tonic,
his statement is borne out.
Although only placed on. sale a com
paratively short time ago, more than
twenty thousand bottle have already
been sold by the leading druggists
throughout the Middle West, and all
indications point to record sales Of
Garren's Tonic. This is not surpris-
ing because when a medicine actually
builds up run down people, and makes
them healthy, rosy checked and happy,
they are bound TO be enthusiastic.
Garren's Tonic is sold in Wausau by
Geo. w. Pradel, in Marathon by Wal

COMMENCE WORK
ON BARN NOW
COUNCIL FAVORABLE--MAY
CHANGE BOUNDARIES
OF WARDS

After hearing a communication from
G. G. Kruger Oran Liljeqvist and
John Sell, members of the barn COM
mittee of the Chamber of Commerce.
in which they urged that the building
of this structure be expedited, the
common council voted at its regular
meeting Tuesday evening to obtain
bids immediately and to appropriate
$4,000 for the purpose. A like amount
will be collected from the pledges OBJ
tanned by the citizens committee.
Plans for the barn had been the
stumbling block for some little time
but the council finally has accepted
draft originally prepared by the
mayor and followed out by the archi-
tects, which designs structure about
half the size of the one first contem-
plated 1t will accommodate fifty
teams whereas the original plan made
arrangements for almost 100. Esti-
mates were read to the council vary
ing between Sill 900 and $4,000. Final
costs, it is anticipated, will about hit
between these figures. There will be
no basement.
Want New Ward
An ordinance favoring the creation
of the Tenth ward out of the First
Ward, to include that part of the city
south of the Town Line road, was in
troduced. The creation of such a ward
was suggested by petition, there being
about. 100 signers. The council denied
their request.
The question, however, caused a
considerable amount of discussion par
ticularly because the redistricting of
the city was under discussion year
ago. Several aldermen expressed
themselves ardently in favor of some
Encouragement of wards, and it was
brought to the attention of the coun-
ell that committee of supervisors
had been appointed when the question
first came up to make some recon-
mendation AS it had not acted, Al
derman Ringle made motion that the
judiciary committee take the matter
in hand. This was passed and it is
anticipated that at a meeting in the
near future the matter will be resur-
rected.
Another vital problem came up for
its share of attention. The commit
tee on streets and bridges recommend
ed to the council that Adams street
be opened up east of Tenth street to
the city limits. The question of how
much property need be purchased was
answered by Alderman Borowitz, who
declared that the resolution present
ed, accepting the report of the commit
tee and leaving the matter of opening
Adams street east, to the board of
public works, might mean that some
arrangement could be made with prop
erty owners and the street thus open
ed without expenditure or condemna-
ton.
Approve Opening
Alderman Gearhart.. !Kell, Zielsdorf,
Leak and Ringle spoke on the sub
ject and the debate resolved itself into
suggestions on the part of various
councilmen that other streets be
opened up also. Finally the recon-
mendation of the committee on streets
and bridges was adopted.
A communication from the board of
education announced to the council the
fact that the Columbia school is no
longer useful for school purposes and
the board returned the property to the
control of the city. The Presbyterian
church trustees indicated their desire
to purchase the property by letter and

Corn Growers Organize

Wayne county farmers have organized to in
crease the yield of corn by participation in the
corn growing contests of Hoosierdom, and also to
encourage their sons to learn improved methods
of growing this crop.
The latter feature of the organization has an
educational appeal Of great Importance. The
smallness of the profit which the farmer obtains
from crop, added to the hazard of weather with
which he must always contend, makes it inpera-
tive for him to acquaint himself with the latest
methods developed in the agricultural colleges to
offset these disadvantages.
By participation in organization which has
for it's purpose the harvesting Of greater crops
and by enlisting the interest Of his sons when
they are young and eager to learn advanced
methods, the corn grower Of Wayne county is
assuring for himself both a knowledge of the
latest scientific data and the cooperation of the
next generation which will till his soil and carry
forward his work.
Every corn grower of the county should af
fiiate himself with the organization. It's pur
poses are wholly educational and beneficial to the
members.

Says His Prescription
Has Powerful Influence
Over Rheumatism

Mr.. James H. Allen suffered for
years with rheumatism. Many times
this terrible disease left him helpless

free from rheumatism until the &C.

in the joints and muscles and expelled
from the body.
With this idea in mind he consulted
physicians, made experiments and H.

and women who have gained renown and fame,
it's art and music.
No one can successfully detract from its good
name or denounce its reputation as an ideal bust
ness, social, industrial, educational, religious and
cultured community without running squarely
into the face of incontrovertible facts.
The annual dinner of the Richmond Art as
emphasizes one of the features of our community
life which has given us national reputation. The
Art association, founded many years ago for the
purpose of studying and popularizing an appre-
citation Of artistic work, has done commendable
work for the community.
The time and thought which the members of
the association have given to art culture is a
vicarious investment of effort for the public
good. No can view the work of this organ
ization without finding that it has earned divi-
dends.
The effort which they have made in educating
the public in art matters in providing displays
of the work of Indiana artists and that of other
painters of this country is an investment for the
better1nent of the city of Richmond. We will
venture that they themselves take vast amount
of satisfaction in reviewing their achievements
and in planning for the future.
The citizenship appreciates the unselfish de-
votion of the Art association in it's many-sided
work of fostering and developing this phase of
the community life-something for which we are
envied all over the United States

and Juno Februata, it was customary
for each Roman youth to draw from
a receptacle the name of one of the
city's maidens, who thereupon became
his sweetheart. When Christianity
overwhelmed paganism. the Church
took over this pretty custom, but
grated upon it a radical change. The
name was drawn by both youths and
maidens, but it was not that of
fellow being, to be admired, but of
one of the saints, who was to become
special object of worship the ensu-
ing year. The old date of Lupercalia
remained, but under these modifica-
lions the drawing of patron saints be-
came associated with st. Valentine.
for it was on Feb. IA that the choice
was determined. Later the name of
women were again substituted for the
names of saints. Another important

Excellent Showing by Richmond
Conference

Not only members of the Methodist church.
but also members of other denominations, are
taking pardonable amount of pride in the excel
lent record which the Richmond district has
made in that nomination-eadership in the
North Indiana conference as we'll as in the other
conferences which constitute the Indianapolis
area. The Wayne county churches Of the con-
ference contributed valiantly toward the excel
lence Of their district perhaps, leading other
counties.
The report Of the area conference recently
conducted at Indianapolis shows that Indiana is
of the largest Methodist centers in the world,
taken on per capita basis. The property of the
denomination in Indiana is valued at 81 100000,
and the subscribers to the UNCONVENTIONAL paper
published at Cincinnati are in excess of the num-
Der of readers in Ohio.
All this indicates that the members of the
!aity are aggressively and actively interested in
the affairs of their denominations highly COM
mendab]e state of affairs, for the real worth of
church activity is the spiritual force which i'm
pels its adherents to exemplify their faith in
works of benevolence, Christian education and
missions.
The Richmond churches of the denomination
receive the cooperative support of their men,
bers which is demonstrated in their zeal in enter
ing into the forward movements of the body and
in contributing more than their share toward the
realization of the broader aims of the denomina-
ton, without impairing in the least the purely
local activities Of the congregations. They have
found that interest in purely local affairs is aug
mented and animated in direct proportion to the
zeal which is displayed in the broader work of the
denomination, principle of church activity that
is as old as the church itself.
