The comedietta presented by Wills & Barron is one of the bright- est spots in the capitol programme given at the Brinkman Family Theatre. Every move that George Wills makes, and every sentence that he utters brings forth laughter. GEO. W. WILLS AND GRACE BARRON. & Barron were strangers in town but they now have their acquaintance well estab- lished; in fact they captured the audience. They were exceptionally funny sketch artists, and their work is like wine it improves with old age. This fact is proven by pe(')ple living in Bemidji who saw Wills preform fifteen years ago. Come and see them and enjoy a hearty laugh. 'LOCAL HAPPENINGS The Continued Story of Current Events. M. E. Smith has received three cars of lumber today, which will be sold at his yards in this city.

Harris, register of deeds, returned this morning from a trip to the country in the vicinity of Shotley, where he was looking over some land. “Jim” states that the trip was considerable of an arduous one, and that he rater enjoyed it. Meeting Old Neptune. 1 An !nmate of Sailors’ Snug Harbor In speaking of the ceremony connected with “crossing the line,” when Father Neptune presides over the initiation of the men who have never crossed the equator, sald: “I got my introduction to old Nep- tune while I was in the merchant serv- ice. I got my lather and shave and ducking thirty years ago and helped Initiate many seafaring men and lands- men since then. With hot tar handy, Neptune’s crew often took liberties ‘which would not be allowed on board 8 man-of-war. The skipper used to look on from aloft, but he was blind as a bat to things that he did not wish to see, and the men knew enough'to make no complaint. I know that I was mad clear through at what I got, but I con- tented myself with taking it out of the uext man.” Horrible Example. “My dear,” said Mrs. Strongmind, 1 want you to accompany me to the town hall tomorrow evening.” “What for?” querled the meek and lowly other half of the combine, “I am to lecture os the ‘Dark Side of Married Life’” explalned Mrs. 8. “and I want you to sit. on the platform and pose as one of the fllustrations.”— Ohicago News.

TORFANGE, o, The 8un From a Balioon. At the height of two miles the sun shines with a fierce Intensity unknown below, where the dust and the denser air scatter the rays, which, thus dif- fused, lose thelr intensity while illu- mining every ‘nook and corner of our houses. At helghts exceeding five miles this diffused light is mostly gone, and the sun shines a glowing ball, sharply outlined in a sky of which the blue is so dark as to approach blackness. At the outer limits of the atmosphere the sun would appear a brilllant star of massive size among other stars, and if one stepped from its burning rays into shadow he would enter Egyptian dark- ness. At the height of a mile and a half we found it necessary to shelter our faces to prevent sunburn, although the air around us was but little warm- er than that of the previous night, be- ing about 45 degrees. As the afternoon wore on and the balloon began to cool and sink we were obliged to throw out much sand, casting it away a scoopful at a time, and just after sunset it was even necessary to empty two or three bags at once.—H. H. Clayton in Atlan- tle. Too Significant. “These Spanish names in California puzzle me, but some of them have very interesting meanings,” commented a guest of one of the hotels. “Yes?” said the manager. “They do, for a fact; they really do. I am keeping track of a list in my notebook. But the funny thing was in Santa Barbara. Listen to this: ‘Indio Muerto street, meaning dead Indian.’ Ah, here it is, the one I was after, a street named ‘Salsipuedes’ Well, this street’s the one that runs to the hospital up on the sloping hillside above the town. When they built the hospital, they were at a loss for a name. Some one suggested calling it after this street. And they did. Then they hap- pened to look up the meaning of the word.” “And what does it mean?’ asked the manager. “ ‘Salsipuedes’ was originally a street that wandered up and down through a series of ravines, and it means ‘Get out if you can.’ Good name for a jail, but not for a hospital.”—San Francisco Chronicle. - The Queen’s Lesson. One of the ladies in waiting to the late Queen Victoria had a very bright little daughter about four years old and of whom the queen was very fond. The gueen invited the child to have lunch with her. Of course the mother ‘was highly pleased and charged the lit- tle girl to be very careful about her table manners and to be very polite to the queen. The little girl came home in high glee, and the mother asked her all about the luncheon. “Were you a very polite little girl? And did you remem- ber to do all I told you at the table?” asked the proud mamma. “Oh, yes; I was polite,” said the little girl, “but the queen wasn’t.” “The queen wasn’t!” said the mother. “Why, what did she do?” “She took her chicken bone up in her fingers, and 1 just shook my finger at her, like you did at me, and said, ‘Pig- £y, piggy, piggy! "—Philadelphia North American. Over the Eggs and Bacon. He scraped with his knife a bit of butter off the sporting page. “The writer of that poem on flying is accused of plagiarism now,” he said. “It's awful,” she exclaimed, “the way these men go about the country marrying innocent women! Wipe your mustache, dear.” He wiped his mustache and, with a frown, inspected the result upon his napkin. “Plagiarism,” he said, “means a lit- erary theft.” “Stole some books, did he?” “No, no; he stole ideas. They say a ‘woman wrote the poem years ago.” “And now they bring it up against her, eh? Oh, these newspapers! But look at the mess you've made there with your.coffee. I do wish you'd try to be a little more careful.””—New Or- leans Times-Democrat, Cure For Dipsomania. Flesh food is the chief cause of dip: somania. When men are properly nour- ished upon noninflammatory dlet that is rich in proteid and nerve and tis- sue building substance—such as nuts of all kinds and thelr products, cereal foods (wheat meal, oatmeal, macaroni, rice, etc), legumes (haricots, lentils and peas), fruits of every sort and dairy produce (cheese, milk and eggs)— they do not crave for strong drink, nor are they in danger of taking alcohol to excess.—London Health Record. In the Dime Museum. “What did you do- with my ther- mometer?” demanded the doctor who had been called in to attend one of the freaks. “I swallowed it, doc,” answered the glass eater. “Thought it was my med- icine.”—Pittsburg Press. Confusing English. “I see one of our battleships reported fast in the mud.” “Well?” “I was just thinking that a ship fast In the mud ought to be a record break- er on the open sea.”—Pick-Me-Up. Money Makes Egotists. Money s a sort of creation and gives the acquirer even more than the pos- sessor an imagination of his own pow- er and tends to make him idolize self. —Cardinal Newman. _— Conquering Temptation. To conquer temptation you must live it down alone, as you must die alone, and no vicarious gift of strength can take the place of a man’s own will— From “My Journal.” Foiled. “Ah!” sald Bragley, with a view to making Miss Wise jealous. “I was alone last evening with some one I ad- mire very much.” ‘“Ah!” echoed the bright girl. “Alone, were you?’—Philadelphia Press.
