ODD WAY TO GET RELIGION

Ordinary Run.

The minister was in the midst Of a
revival service that looked very prom
Using from almost every angle. The
finance committee had brought in Miss
Nightingale to direct the chorus; the
young hopefuls of the nelghborhood
had listened attentively to the min
lister, and graciously accepted his in
yitaiion To enter the fold.
one tlay while he was preparing his
sermon, his wife and Miss Nightin-
gale came into his study. The con
versation soon tlrifted To church af-
fairs and finally settled down to II dis
cusslon OF II certain bishop, of whom
the minister Is not very fond. Here
the conversation Jagged. and the min
ister's thoughts went back TO his SER
mon. The two women soon dropped
the bishop and took up some OF the
local characters.
In speaking Of one OF them. Miss
Nightingale said: elias lie rot any
reliGion:"
''oh. yes" said the minister's wife.
''he got it two years ago"
The minister's ear c,ught the last
sentence. and thinking that II referred
to the honors that had been bestowed
on the bishop. snapped out: "Yes, hut

MINOR MUSINGS

"The dangerous age" for men,
about which so much now is being
written in magazines, for wives TO
read, is from six years to ninety.six.
There is a good deal of kicking
about women playing card games TO
excess, but still it's better for them
to play progressive bridge than to
play progressive matrimony.
One of the best jokes is the belief
which a young man has before mar
riage that afterward he is going TO
run his life jut as he did before.
The man who used to drink "a little
wine for his stomach's sake now
drinks little bootleg for the under
takers sake.
The petting that lot of girls get
before marriage is about all they will
ever receive.
Sometimes his stareyed goddess

When the photographer suggests to
HIS victim. Now just look natural
please the latter's eyes bulge out
and show their whites. and his face
takes on the expression OF a dying

In spite OF all his inner belief that
he belongs to the superior sex. every
man has a sneaking idea that nearly
any girl is too good to marry any man.

ed, Causing Airship to
Soar Higher in Air

Paris. Dec. 29.-(By the Associat-
ed Press)-A sudden explosion was
suggested today as the cause of the
disappearance Of the dirigible Dix
nude.
Advices from Rome said that moth
ing had been found among the effect
of Lieut.. Grenaden, commander OF
the dirigible. whose body was recov-
cred by fishermen off Sicily, to show
that he felt that the ship was in i'm
mediate danger.
In addition Sicilians told Of hav-
ing seen flashes at sea at the time
the lieutenant'i watch stopped al
2.3O o'clock. The lieutenant's body
was wrapped in n heavy fur coat over
his uniform. In his pockets were a
number Of undeveloped Photographic
negatives made during the trip but
no log book or any document likely
to throw light on the fate of the di-
rigible.
1t is considered possible that the
foremost car of the six gondolas at.
tached to the Dixmude which con-
tanned the captains cabin and the
chart and navigating room became
detached from the airship and fell
into the sea, tightening the craft
and causing it to rise higher and be
carried along by the wind Among
the objects found on the body were
an image of st. Christopher and a
printed prayer by st. Francis de
Sales petitioning for protection and
safeguard against shipwrecks.

WOULD PLACE
TWO MEN HERE
IN LABORATORY

The question of adding an expert
to the Bismarck branch laboratory
in charge of E. M. Stanton is now
being discussed by authorities and
likely will be decided in the near fu-
ture. 1t is probable that Mr.. Stan
ton, who had submitted his resigna-
tion, will be asked to remain in the
laboratory under the new arrange
ment.
The international Health Board of
New York, part of the Rockefeller
Foundation, has offered to subsidize
the laboratory to the extent Of 81 800
per year for the purpose of making
possible the employment Of an ex-
pert who might do sanitary engineer
ing work-go to various parts of
the state to investigate epidemics,
and to do similar work for the state
health department. If this subsidy
is accepted there would be a chief
laboratory director who could also
fill this position for his experience
and training and Mr.. Stanton would
remain as laboratory technician.
