FORMER RESIDENT DEAD

In a copy of the Biwabik Times
Mimi handed us this week by Mrs.
N. A. Colman, an account of the death
and funeral of H. E. Greene is given,
occurring last week
Mr.. Greene was very well known
in Eagle River quarter of a century
ago as station agent at State Line and
later as a resident of Rhinelander.
On July 10, 1896, he was married to
Miss Cora ID. Shank, resident of
this village. The family had resided
in Biwabik for fourteen years and his
home paper spoke highly of him as
ran and citizen Of that place. Death
was due to cancer from which he had
suffered since last May. Besides the
wife, four children survive him.
Among the friends from abroad at
tending his funeral were noted Mr..
and Mrs. G. f. Colman of Duluth.

Extracted Teeth With Fingers.

The work of .old-time Chinese
dentists is ludicrously primitive The
operator extracts all teeth with his
finger. From youth to manhood he is
trained to pull pegs from wooden
board, and this training changes the
aspect of the hand, and gives him a
finger grip that is equivalent to a
lifting power of three or four hun
dred pounds. For toothache he en-
ploys opium, peppermint oil, CHINA
mon Oil and Glove oil. Sometimes he
fills teeth, but he does it so poorly
that the filings fall out after a few
months. There is an element of super
stition in his work, for he asserts
that all dental troubles are brought on
by tooth worms, and he always shows
the nerve pulp to the patient as such
a worm. For humbugging purposes,
also, the dentist carries about in his
pocket some white grubs, and after
he has extracted a tooth he shows a
grub to the sufferer as the cause of all
the trouble.

BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY

A business enterprise badly needed
in Eagle River and one that should
prove highly profitable to the owner
or owners is a custom flour and feed
mill With the nearest mills now loca-
ted at Amigo, 80 miles south and the
next nearest one at Iron River, Mich.
about the same distance, nothing east
and west within the range of any
farmer, it is a territory that ought
to keep a 5O-bbl -four mill busy every
day in the year, saying nothing OF
the feed that would be ground up by
local farmers if it was possible to
have it ground. Every farmer uses
bread and lots of it, though we be-
lieve many now sell their wheat and
rye and buy their flour owing to the
long distance to send the grain away
for grinding. No farmer would do that
if it was convenient to get grinding
done as the side products of bran and
middlings are nearly equal to the
-four for feed for stock. Some man is
passing up fine business proposition
by not getting into the grist mill game
in Eagle River and who ever does do
so in the future will find an excellent
opening awaiting him.

Season Is Now Open" gives us the
following startling misinformation:
The open season for deer opened on
Tuesday Ambitious gentlemen who
start forth a-gunning are urged to re-
member that deer are four legged and
do not greatly resemble men, who
sometimes pay the price for a too
well directed but mistaken shot.
ut is forbidden likewise to carry a
gun or rifle in any vehicle unless the
gun is unloaded and enclosed in a
case.
THE season is now open also for
hunting rabbits and squirrels. The
use of traps and snares as well as the
batting of them with ferrets, rats,
weasels and guinea pigs is prohibited.

Squirrels are protected all year in
Milwaukee,, Ozaukee, Washington
Waukesha, Racine, Kenosha and
Dodge counties.
"The season for all such hunting
closes on Jan. 15."
Before going hunting we would adj
wise our readers to take good look at
the latest copy of the Wisconsin game
laws. They'll find them some different
than the Sentinel sets forth. Deer
