The Elgin Cafe made a new addi-
tea to their already up-to-date equip
ment when they AIDED new Stearns
Heatrola to furnish the heat for the
large cafe room. The beautiful stove
which is fashioned after a Victrola
graphophone was purchased from the
Holland Strand Hardware Store and
is the first of its kind installed in this
section of the state. The Heatrola has
been tried out and has proved itself a
greater heater as well as a fuel saver.

Dear Mr.. Moore:

A
Dear Mr.. Moore:
In my hustle and hustle in getting
ready to leave and in finishing my
work did not find time to call on
you and the paper" to express my
gratitude and thanks for the coOpera-
ton you have shown me, especially
during my term of Office. hope you
will continue to play team work an
interruptedly in the future as in the
past. Since distance has removed me
from visible participation in affairs
there, it has been more emphatically
impressed upon me the Importance

done. Allow no petty frictions to mar
your work as such a mediuml
Kindly extend nay gratitude to the

and happy future, ] remain
Fraternally yours,

TIME CLOSE AT HAND
FOF CULLING FLOCKS

Look for a high death rate among
farm poultry of the state. The Gull
ing season, when the indifferent layer
and all her sisters should be disposed
of to the best advantage, is close at
hand. Culling demonstrations will be
in order from June to January.
Nine hundred eighty-six demonstra-
tons were put on in rs counties of
Minnesota last season. Three thous-
and eight hundred thirty-eight fiocks,
totaling 313,557 birds, were culled;
lOO,932 birds, or practically one third,
were discarded as Improbable.
1T is evident from these figures
says N. E. Chapman, poultry specialist
with the agricultural extension d.
vision of the university, that about
one-third of the farm fiocks should be
culled, and this culling should begin
as soon as the hens begin to molt
Early molters having small combs and
wattles and yellow legs of the Amer
lean and Mediterranean breeds are the
ones that should be discarded. Such
fowls may be consumed immediately,
canned for future use or put on the
market. This will give the remainder
OF the flock more room and a better
chance all around. Sale of the nom
layers will provide a fund for the
purchase of feed for the growing
stock"
Mr.. Chapman notes that the June
quotations on fat hens are several
cents higher than in the late months
OF the season.

treasury savings certificates is the
best possible money to get into gov
eminent securities, because these GER
tificates are better distributed among
the people at large than perhaps any
other government securities.
The personal interest developed by
this form of investment naturally
leads to keeer feeling of response
bility in our government, and thus en-
courages higher standard of citi-
zenship, which makes for greater sta
bility in American communities, more
care in expenditures and more earnest
consideration of future possibilities.
President Harding and Secretary
Mellon came out strongly for the saw
ings certificate plan at recent gath
ering of directors of Federal Reserve
banks in charge of savings. While
the government stands the certificates
are worth full value and offer form
of investment within reach of every
citizen.

Old krook.

Krook is the name of rather prom
inent but most uncanny character in
Dickens novel, BLEAK House." which
has much to do with the then dilatory
procedure of the Court of Chancery.
The system Dickens describes ceased
to exist many years.
Krook is the proprietor of a rag and
bone warehouse, where everything
seems to be bought and nothing sold.
He is a grasping drunkard, who even
tually dies of spontaneous combustion,
that is, he is SO saturated with liquor
that he takes fire and is consumed.
In. a note to this chapter of BLEAK
House Dickens cites a case of spon-
taneous combustion that took place
i'm Paris, France, and which, he said.
was well verified by medical authority.
1t was probably from that case that
Dickens obtained the idea which he
made use of i'm describing KroOk's Won
derful death.

Benjamin Franklin, while represent

to French correspondent that the

peared to me as too violent, and have
found it much more agreeable to my

view / rise early almost every morning

Franklin was sixty-two at the time.
He had still to live twenty-five of the
most active years Of his extraordinary
career, so that in his case cold-air
baths seem to have done no harm.
Franklin was before his time in his
belief in fresh air, and he wrote some
savage things about the "aerophobia
that at present distresses weak minds
and makes them choose to be stified
and poisoned rather than leave open
the window of bedchamber or put

FLOWER-POT AS BRIDEGROOM
Unique Ceremony Which Transforms
Chinese Girl Into FuIl-Fledged
and Privileged Widow.

China is still land of strange Gus
toms, one of the most curious being
the ceremony of a fiower-pOt mar
riage.
When the man whom Chinese girl
is to marry dies shortly before the
date fixed for the wedding, the grief
stricken bride-elect sometimes takes
a VOW never to marry. Should she
do so, she goes through the ceremony
of wedding an ordinary fiower-pot.
She is now considered a widow, and
upon the parents of her intended hus-
band falls the responsibility of main
tanning her. Usually she goes to live
with them.
In many cases, especially where the
family is poor, great sacrifices are nee
essary in order that the daughter-in-
law (as she is now regarded) may be
properly cared for. But the parents
have no option in the matter. And,
actually, they have no desire to shirk
their responsibilities, for the faithful
ness of the widow" brings great
honor to the bridegroom's family, 1t
being considered quite disgrace
should the bride-elect not wish to
go through the ceremony Of marrying
the fiOwer-pOt.
In the days before China was a re-
public, the emperor, upon the facts
being brought to his notice, had
handsome monument erected In COM
memoration Of the widows" faith

Purpose.

Ambition is more than wish; ii is
pose. Al. that is needed for the ac-
complishment of our ambitions is de-
sire so strong that we will sacrifice
whatever may stand in the way Of our
success. The law Of compensation
never fails. Ii we would gain one
thing we must give up another. How
many people have you known who
complain of failure through bad luck,
when your own knowledge of them
tells you that their downfall came
through lack Of really trying? They
were not willing to forego pleasures
or extravagances which interfered
with their success.

QUIZ

@. How came the Navy men to be called
gobs? w. H.
A. The appelIation "Gob" is of Chinese de-
rlvation from the Chinese word meaning
sailor" The word came into use when the
fleet was in the Far East
q. What is it that has no shape, but does
have size? M. A. G.
A. A liquid has size but not shape; if
poured out on level table it covers the en-
tire surface, and will fill all depressions. but
Its upper surface will be uniform and level
In large body of water this level conforms
to the curvature of the earth
e. Has the mole any eyes? F. T.
A. The eyes of the mole are very small,
and in many species are covered by mem
0rane. Recent Investigations show that the
eye itself is much degenerated and probably
is of practically no use as an organ of sight
Q. Who is author of the line: For the fe-
male of the species is more deadly than the
male?" L. J. P.
A The line is from Kipling's "Female of
the Species"
O. Is it true that century plant blooms
only once in a hundred years? NJ c.
A The report that a century plant blooms
only once IN a hundred years is probably due
to the Impotence of some of its admirers In
some parts of South America, where it grows
wild, it blooms once in eight years, but when
it has been transplanted into greenhouses I'M
der artificial conditions, it's blooming date is
much prolonged.
Q. Is it true that the negro is immune
from ivy poisoning? B.
A. DR.. H H. Hazen, skin specialist, says:
''It is usually stated that the full-blooded ne
gro is almost immune to ivy poisoning In
my experience, based upon the observance of
several thousand cases of skin diseases in
that race, the negro suffers just as often and
just as severely as does the white. 1t must
always be borne in mind that the city negro
does not often go into the country, hence he
is not so often affected but that the country
negro Frequently ACQUIRES it,
