and works as intensely as ever, in
her small private laboratory, con-
tent with her modest salary as lee
turer at the Sorbonne.
All her discoveries have been
given to the world free, nothing
patented, nothing sold. Her dis
covery of radium, in which science
sees at present the best hope for
the treatment Of cancer and other
malignant diseases-its possible
uses are infinite-might have given
her a fortune of millions. She
wants nothing from anybody, but
will accept for her private use in
experiments the grain of radium
that her admirers in this country
wish to. give her.
That grain of radium will cost
100000.
How marvellous it is that a tiny
particle Of matter, so small as to be
scarcely visible in the palm of the
hand, can exert a power inconceiv-
able to US, and possess and retain
within itself a force and energy
utterly beyond our conception.
In the war Madame Curie dem
onstrated instantly the value of
science and of her discovery in
every phase of life. She closed her
laboratory, took her daughter
Irene and few students to a hos
pital close to the battle lines, en-
ploying in behalf of the wounded
her perfect knowledge of radiog-
raphy.
1t was she that suggested and
equipped automobiles with radio
graphic apparatus, used all along
the battle front to locate bullets
in the heads of soldiers, making
possible immediate and safe ex-
traction and saving thousands of
lives.
III you wish to contribute to the
Marie Curie radium fund make
your check or money order payable
to the Equitable Trust Company
and mail it to that company, ad-
dressed Equitable Trust Company,
New York city.
No large contributions are re-
quested or wanted. One dollar
from a woman unable to afford
more will be as acceptable as a
thousand.
The purchase of grain of
radium to be presented to this
great scientist means presenting
to her opportunity for continued
research and study. While the
idea, originally, was to raise the
fund among American WOMEN
only, it may be taken for granted
that contributions in honor or in
memory of women will be ac-
cepted, even though they come
from MEN.
This writer will be glad to hear
Of any contributions suggested by
the writing of this article. But
all checks must be made payable
to the Equitable Trust Company
and sent direct to that company.
Never will you contribute to
any fund more noble, more worthy,
more inspiring than this fund. 1t
will enable a great scientist,
noble woman, to carry on more eff
ficiently the work for humanity
and knowledge. to which she has
dedicated her life.

Everybody Happy?

Spring, with it's green grass and
budding apple blossoms and buzzing
bees and butterflies and baseball games,
is upon u.s.
Soft, southern winds fill the air with
fragrance.
The coal bin may be as empty as q
miser's head and the house may need
painting and there may be too much
daylight getting into little Wlllle,s
shoes, but the sun shines just the same
and the birds sing and we're glad to be
alive.
1t is the oh-be-j joyful season Of the
year.
The great out doors with its medley
Of melody calls. Pity the poor fellow
who must drudge away on the inside!
But perhaps you are one Of those who
by dintNof diligent industry and sys-
tematic saving, are able to step into
their automobile and whirl out where
picnics grow and fish bite. If SO, 1t is
one Of the dividends paid you by that
magical thing known as Thrift.
rs 1t is great to really be able to enjoy
life and when we know that the coal
bin can be filed again at the proper
time and that, Willie can have his new
shoes when he no. longer wants to go
bare footed, we have that sense Of sat
isfaction which makes natures SPLEEN
doris all the more intoxicating.
Thrift and contentment go hand in

A CITY Beautiful.

Spring is here and soon the roads
and trails that lead out and over the
horizon from Warren will be guiding
visitors to this city from all parts OF
the country. The season OF motor
travel will soon be on. America, with
its motors, is looking more and more to
the touring possibilities of its own pic
turcsuue soil than those across three
thousand miles of water This summer,
more than ever before, people: will
travel via automobile all over this land
of ours. Cars going north, south, west
and east, will be passing through War
rem The travellers will carry away
with them visions Of the county seat of
Marshall county: Those visions must
be agreeable. that Warren may justly
be proud to welcome and bid adieu TO
the many tourists
Only in proportion as Warren is
cleaned up. yards raked, lawns kept
in best condition and flowers planted
in the most attractive places. will the
city reflect a beautiful vision to the
passerby. Now is. the >, time to plan
landscape gardening and to start beau

city. When hot summer days come

that go to make up a beautiful city.
With little effort !: smile may be

MICHAEL j. BOWLING is DEAD

The sudden death of Michael j !.
bowling at st. Luke'S hospital in ST.
Paul on Monday morning zne as a
shock to the people of this state For
many years Mr. Bowling has been a
prominent figure in business and poll
tics, and was a candidate for governor
at the Republican state convention last
year. He was also well known nations
ally as well as internationally through
many activities of his busy and useful
life.
The story Of his early life reads al
most like fairy tale. He was born
in Massachusetts in 1866 At the age
of ten years his mother died, and then
he came west with his father. AS a
boy he sold newspapers and flowers in
Chicago Then he aspired to become a
cowboy and parting with his father he
came to southwestern Minnesota and
until the winter of 1SS1-S2, when he
was II years Of age, he worked as Il
farm hand and cowherd. Next we
find him caught in a Snowstorm. get
ting arms and legs frozen so badly that
both legs had to be amputated below
the knee and one arm below the elbow.
The fingers and part Of the thumb on
the right hand were also removed
After spending all his money on doctor
bills, the county took charge of him.
but he refused to become a county
charge. He bargained with the county
board to send him to Carleton College
for two terms and he would then re-.
lieve them of further responsibility
This was done and the county also fur
nislled him with artificial limbs. Leav-
ing school he became a country school
teacher, then principal of East Granite
Falls schools, then superintendent of
schools, then Il newspaper editor and
publisher, besides being Interested in
other business activities, and also in
politics. He was elected to the lcyis-
llture and served as speaker of the
house in 1901. He early became inter
esteu in banking and at the time of
death was the president of the State
Bank Of Olivia. In spite of his physi-
cal handicap he has by his indomitable
will and energy achieved Il wonderful
success in life. During the world war
MI. bowling was employed by the GOV
eminent to tour the hospitals to cheer
up the MANNED and disabled soldiers.
lie was also called to England and
France to perform the same service for
the unfortunate soldiers in those conn
tries: Mr. Bowling could by his own
example show that it is possible to
achieve success and an honored posi-
ton III life in spite OF physical llandi-
caps. Overwork in helping and serving
others finally brought on ill health and
cut short at the age of 90 years. a life
that always will remain an inspiration
to young people and to those afflicted
with bodily in1irmaties.
Mr.. Bowling was married to Jennie
1.eonora Bordewich in 1898, on the Min
nesota editors trip to Atlanta. Ga.

This year is the tri-centenary of the
landing Of the first potato on the shores
of Chesapeake bay. 1t seems strange
that although the potato is a native of
Chilli and Peru in South America, yet
it was brought into what is now the
United States from England, where it
had been introduced in 1886, by Francis
Drake according to some historians and
by Walter Raleigh according to others.
The potato arrived in Ireland very
early and became a leading food pro-
duct therein fact became known as a
Murphy, a most distinguished honor.
Now let everybody who. has a plot Of
ground this year observe the 3O0th an
niversary of the coming of the potato
to the United States by planting lot
of them. Potato raising has been a
neglected industry III the vicinity of
Warren i'll past years. Let us make up
for: this by planting Il large acreage
this year and also build potato ware
house. County Attorney n. n. Eek
strom is going to honor the lowly spud
by planting five acres in potatoes this
year on his farm east Of town. Let
many others follow his example.

Just little time ahead of us, a year
or two, and the millers and the big in
terests all around will be coming to the
managers of the American Farm Bu-
reau. They will tell the farm bureau
how much wheat they need for the com
ing month. They will ask if they can
have it and they will ask (not tell) the
price won't that be a grand and
glorious feeling?" And about this time
the Chamber Of Commerce will hang
out a sign, Rooms for Light House
keeping?" lot Of gambler drones about
the Board of Trade will go to work or
starve The Minneapolis banks will
lend money OH actual security and not
ON grain gambling certificates and the
American farmer will not be so much

desire to grind his wheat. Thief River

becoming more and more popular All
the World loves a Thrifty person, es-
pecially in the springtime When a
Minneapolis working girf received a
letter recently from the president, con-
graduating her on the spirit of thrift
which has caused her to buy Savings
stamps daily for more than three years,
hundreds Of unknown persons showered
kind words upon her and not a few ex-
pressed their admiration with gifts of
money.
Somehow the sentiments of spring
and thrift are interviewer both mean
a fuller,s bigger, better life.
The government seeks to encourage
thrift by offering its so called Treasury
Savings securities: Thrift stamps, Saw
ings stamps and Treasury Savings GER
tificates, ranging from % cents to
81 900, yielding a good rate of interest,
convertible at any time into cash and
always worth more than you pay for
them. Ask the postmaster about them.
