 HUNTING HIDDEN TREASURES IN
 THE ANDES"
 By Francis ltWheeler. George II.
 Doran Company, Publishers, New
 York City.
 At the instant there was a swirl and huge pair of jaws shot up be- side ths boat. The uba (canoe) was but IS inches wide, and though Julio was standing upright, the snout of the man-eater actually touched him. A foul husky oder from the reptiles open throat reeked up into the boys face. He leaned side wise as the jaws closed with vicious snap, missing only by inches.' Alone in the depths of the jungle this courageous boy fought his way through perils innumerable to the foot of the towering Andes. How he met, thereby. two husky young Americans and led them to the bur fed treasure of the Incas makes a story which will thrill all young peo- pie of adventurous spirit.

Enough to say that l have been able to rescue them from his clutches and drive them to your house. You will not refuse them shelter?"
 This brief extract will give the reader a better idea of the style and quality of Mir. LeQueux's new novel than the reviewer could convey in several columns. The tale opens in January, 1888. when Nello Corsini and his sister Anita are penniless strolling musicians, wandering cold and hungry through the streets of Soho on a bitter and snowy night.

"Too OLD FOR DOLLS"

 "Too Old for Dolls" by Anthony M. Ludovici. is an exceptionally enter taining treatise on psyche analysis, illustrated by an interesting and realistic story. The author has ob- served the struggles made by some women of fifty-odd to preserve at least the complexion of their youth. He knows there is seldom much lovs lost between two unmarried sisters. and that if they both chance to be in love with the same man bitter rivalry results, which is unfair and very difficult for the older girl, and even more intense is the feeling be- tween mother and her daughter when the mother is still Ton ths car pet" so to speak, and her daughter Is her rival.
 The author has told an interesting story in an entertaining way on the latter subject-mother and daugh- ter.

Occasionally we hear the remark
that the State Department is spend
ing most of its money on paved
roads and only a small amount on
the gravelled roads of the system,
Official figures given out by The
Highway Department show that for
all money spent in 1921 and for
all appropriations made for 1922,
only Zoe out of every dollar of
road money spent by the Highway
Department is TO paved roads,
while 90 cents out of every dollar
went for maintenance, grayelling,
bridges and such other work on the
gravelled roads of the state system.
1t is we'll 20 keep these figures in
mind because they are official and
authentic. 1t is the policy of the
State Commission Department to
build up the roads of the state as
a whole and do it as quickly as
possible. 1t is not the policy to
use up the money on few miles
of paved roads to the neglect OF
the balance of the roads of the
system. The figures quoted above,
which are official, certainly show
that the policy of the department
is being carried out.-Long Prairie
Leader.

IDA TORSETH
FOR
SENATOR
6lst District
TO THE VOTERS OF ELY.

TO THE VOTERS OF ELY:
Ida Torseth, candidate for State
Senator in The Sixty-first District,
was born in the State of Missouri.
Her grandfather, Lafayette De Bor-
er, served is the Mexican War
Her father, Daniel De Borer, served
on a Union gun boat during the
Civil War. Charles De BOrer, her
brother, served as private in the
Spanish American War and was an
officer in our army during the
World War. Numerous other relat-
ives of Ida Torseth have served in
the army and navy of our coun-
try during our wars. With those
antecedents, Ida Torseth's Ameri-
canism canno.. be disputed. Since
May, 1892, she has been resident
of st. Louis County and during
that period, with the exception of
two years during which time she
has resided in Ely, Minnesota, she
has resided in Virginia. For the
last ten years she has been engaged
in the real estate and insurance
business. Her husband, Oliver Tor
seth, is a carpenter and house
building contractor. They are both
heavy tax payers, owning property
in Virginia.
Ida Torseth has clear, compre-
hensive, and thorough knowledge
of the political needs of the dis
trict. She is capable, fearless, and
a woman of the highest integrity.
A better qualified candidate could
not be found among man or wo-
man.
She believes in the enforcement
of all good laws and the immedi-
ate repeal of all laws that are not
good. That the State broaden and
enlarge its road building campaign
and policy, Ida Torseth believes is
necessary for the further develop
ment of our State. In order to
abrogate unfair methods Of taxa
ton, which result in lower wages
and harder operating conditions,
Ida Torseth believes in the repeal
of the Tonnage Tax, tax which
she claims is working great hard
ship to the District. She believes
that the repeal of that tax would
result in the opening of more
mines, and the employment of many
more men and that the levying Of
the tax spells lower wages for mine
employees. She pledges herself to
work for the repeal of that obnox-
ious, unfair, and unprincipled law.
The average Office holder doesn't
know that the war is over. Ida
Torseth believes in the policy of
getting a dollars worth for every
dollar of tax money expended.
Farmers should be helped to de-
velop their lands. Drainage of all
State lands should be actively car
ried on and more seekers induced
to settle the thousands of idle
land.
She remembers when the wealthy
of the country during the war
preached "Give till it hurts. She
would never substitute 'sTake" for
the word "Give". And with that
end in view she believes that every
soldier, sailor, or the remaining
relative or next of kin of every
departed soldier or sailor should

THE WALL OF A MALE
WHO BOUGHT BY MAIL.

Ma was reading out loud from her
magazine,
When she says to me. "The best
I've seen
For all the things that must be had
Is this here low price mail house
ad.
Here's Cross Grained Oats, 9 cents
no Smore-
'Gainst 10 they're charging at the
And if all the rest that's ADVERTISED
Is Just as cheap I'd not be s'prised
That we'd save. money IN the END
By trading with our low price
fqaepd."
So I sho. an order into the mail
1t carried my name, it carried my
kale.
/ ordered a lamp and a rocking
chair,
A. paik of prunes and some under
wear.
NV wife, she ordered tive. petticoats
A new false puff and some Cross
Grained oats;
A Noah's Ark for baby's toy,
A pair of boots for Bub, the boy;
Stockings for Nell, a waist for Liz
Just; writing that order kept me
busy.
Well, we shot the order into the
mail
Twas all of a thirty dollar sale;
We figured out three days was
enough
To fetch us that dodblasted stuff.
They got my coin, but not peep
Did hear from the firm of Grab
& Keep.
Twas all of two weeks-maybe
three ri 30
Before them goods arrived for me.
/ got a notice, hitched the ma'ar
And drove three miles to the rail-
road car.
/ found a whacking big box there
Some smashed up, but didn't
care.
when you've honed for prunes
until it hurts
And your back is cold for lack of
shirts,
When the goods in front of you s
labeled "Must",
You grab 'em-if the box is bustD
So / heaved the wreckage into the
cart
And, headed for home, feeling pretty
smart.
Ny. goods had come from a town
that's real,
And, I'd saved four dollars on the
dealt 100
We soon got home and opened the
case
And, looked at our purchases face
to- face.
Well sir, twas an eye opener, you
can bet.
And, one that / shan't soon forget !!
The. parcel of oats was torn to
rags
Buts we'd saved twelve cents on a
dozen bags
Thef prunes seemed good, and the
baby's toy
Befpfe it broke he had one days
joy!
My: wife's false puffs was some
hnrsehair stuff,
And, her petsicoats want half large
enough.
The. stockings for Nell looked thin
and frail,
The. waist was ruined by a rusty
nail.
The lamp was as lurid as three
weeks boil
And held bout a teacup full of
oil.
TheS boots for Bub cost the same,
no more,
Than Hoskins asks az the village
store.
But the rocking chair, "built of
solid oak"
Was the funniest part of this whole
sale joke.
Oh, twas just like the picture, rod
and rung,
Blu: the size of the things where
We got stung.
Ma tried it and found twas a false
alarm
Twas a foot too narrow from arm
to, arm!
Nelk' had more luck: she wedged
right in,
But we pried her out with .he roll
ling pin!
