ENTERED AS SECOND CLASS MAT- TER AT THE POSTOFFICE AT BE- MIDJI, MINN,, UNDER THE ACT OF MARCH 3, 1879, A farmer in Colorado killed 125 bushels of grasshoppers with kero- sene. Apparently they have use for some Standard Oil there. A Tannerville cow that was struck by lightning is reported as giving blue milk., We have often met such milk, but did not lay it to lightning so much as rain. HEART-TO-HEART-TALKS. “Do People Read the Ads?” By E. H. DENU. Why is it that people seem to know about everything that hap- pens in these wonderful days? It s not because they read News PAPERS CAREFULLY? Why is it thaf you cannot men- tion the newest things in foods or so0aps, or dresses, or collars, or shirts, or anything else, without the per- son to whom you are talking say- in, Oh, yes, I know all about that.” It is not because ADVERTISE- MENTS ARE AS CAREFULLY READ AS THE NEWS? Who is there to say that “adver- tising does not pay” in these days? 1t is a difficult matter to find a family into which SOME PAPER DOES not go every day. William C. Freeman writes a legend of Napoleon—third gener- ations—who bore the name of PRINCE-WAIT-A-MINUTE. As he was in boyhood so he was in young manhood and in middle life, It is queer how boyhood faults cling to one all through life. Prince “Walit-a-minute,, was never successful, No man ever is who is a procrastinator. His car- reer ended in the Boer war where he was killed—probably because he waited a minute before obeying orders. Procrastination has filled many graveyards with failures. The Advertising today, bubbling over with ideas and enthusiasm, goes o a man who should advertise. A way is pointed out to him by which HE CAN INCREASE HIS BUSINESS. The ADVERTISING MAN finds that the man is slow to decide al- though acknowledging that the plan submitted is a fine one. He puts off taking action. He gays, “come around again.” The ‘Advertising Man goes around again the next day—“STILL THE MAN WAITS AWHILE.” The Advertising Man calls the next week and the week after that and the next month and often the next year. Still that answer is “Wait Awhile.” It is wonderful what patient men advertising men are. No other patience in the world is quite like theirs, except that of a Mothers. Both put up with inconveniences and lack of appreclation and worries— all IN THE HOPE THAT GOOD WILL RESULT SOME DAY.” The business man who puts off ad- ding advertising to his business is treading on quick sand. If ke has any business at all it will slip away from him. HE MUST ADVERTISE TO MAKE HIMSELF KNOWN., There are exceptions that prove the rule, of course. I know now of successful concerns that do not ad- vertise at all and sometimes their success is pointed out to me when I try to persuade a merchant TO SEE THE LIGHT. But these con- cerns would be even greater if they used the greatest tool of publicity— ADVERTISING. For ninty-nine out of one hund- red successes are directly traceable to the influence of advertising—so -do not be “Wait-A-Minute Man,” be- cause he never gets anywhere. PORPPPPOOOOOOO00 O © WHAT OTHER PAPERS BAY & LoOROROROR R R R RO A AR R “Do you know what we think is the best story in the Bible? It may surprise you, but ’‘tis that one about Noah and the flood. We say this even in the face of ed- ucated folks who turn up their noses and declare the flood story is a fake. You remember that Noah had to work a long time on the ark. It was uphill business, too, at hest to g0 on sweating and “toiling day after day under the hot sun, out there on dry land; while the hammer and anvil club-sat around spitting tobacco juice on his whittling up his soft pine with old jack-knives and telling him what a fool he was to expect a big rain in & country that was too dry to grow -alfalfa. But he kept at it; finally the flood came and every mother’s son of the croakers. was drowned. This is the only instance we know of either in ‘sacred or profane history where the knocker got exactly what was coming to him.”—Echange, Humane lcelanders. A woman from Iceland, the wife of a well known Icelandic scholar, was spending a season in New York. Lo- cal pride gave her no rest. She held that day lost in which she had mnot pointed out to some ‘one‘something that was better done in Iceland than in the States. One evening’ while she was dining with a friend the conver- sation turned upon the work of the 8.P.C. A < “In Iceland,” said the victim of local pride, “we have no need of humanita- rian socleties. Cruelty i8 unknown among us. We are naturally a race of humanitarians.” “You are also great fishermen, are you not?’ inquired a second guest. “Oh, certainly,” she cried, “great fishermen! You have no such expert fishermen in the. States.” “But what a cruelsport for an islana full of humanitarians!” cried the sec- ond guest. “No, indeed!” explained the devoted creature without winking. “No, in- deed! In Iceland our fishermen all balt their hooks with anaestheticsl”— New York Sun. Wonderful Earrings. Few présent day ‘earrings surpass in taste and delicate finish the earrings of Biote, -the daughter of Aristotle, which were found in Chalels, wheref perghip, lobella and catnip. These the young woman was buried. Thege ornaments represented doves swinging in golden hoops. 'The miniature birds ‘were marvelously wrought, ‘the feath: ers of granulated gold, the wings and breasts enriched with bands of color supplied by inserted gems. Preclous atones gleamed like tiny sparks for the eyes, Daintlest device of all, the tail feathers were so finely, made and curl- ously adjusted ‘as to move at the slight- est motion of the pendent hoop, so that whenever the proud wearer should toss or shake her head her two attendant doves would seem to balance them- selves upon their perches, as live birds do in swinging on a bough. They were found by exploring archaeologists. The daughter’s trinkets have survived as long as the fame of the father’s phi- losophy.—Chicago Record-Herald. The Cat of the Falcon. One of the traditions of the British Royal Yacht club is-of Lord -Yarbor- ough’s Falcon, the crew of which, ac- cording to Mr. Ralph Neville in Lon- don’ Clubs, were paid extra wages on condition that they submitted to the usual rules in‘force on British vessels of war. These included flogging undér certain - circumstances, and it is sald that, in consideration of the additional sum pald by Lord Yarborough, some of the crew cheerfully submitted to the occasional application of the cat-o™ nine-tails. “Indeed, before the Falcon left Plymouth sound for a cruise all hands cordially signed a paper setting forth the usefulness of a sound flog- ging in cases of extremity and thelr perfect willingness to undergo the ex- periment whenever 1t was deemed nec- essary for the preservation of good or- der.” How Clouds Are Colored. The color of a cloud depends on the manner in which the sunlight falls upon it and the position of the ob- server. It will be noticed that high clouds are always white or light in St color, and this is because the light by | 2 which they are seen is reflected from the under surface by the numberless drops of moisture which go to form L the cloud. Heavy rain clouds, on the other hand, are found much nearer the earth, and so the light falls on them more directly from above, giving a silver lining to the cloud, though the under surface appears black, owing to the complete reflection and absorp- tion of the light by the upper layers. Seen from above by an observer in a balloon the blackest rain clouds ap- pear of the most dazzling brillant white—~Dundee Advertiser. 8Speed of the Teal. Give a bluewing teal a forty mile breeze behind him, have the little ras- cal dropping down with it, and he comes on so fast as to be simply un- hittable. Some writers have claimed a speed for him of 150 miles an hour, or 220 feet a second. The canvasback, redhead and bluebill have a way of driving before a gale, too, that will be found fast enough in all conscience. Much of the fascination of wing shooting comes from the fact that shots will always be afforded quite beyond the skill of mortal man.~Qut- ing Magazine. 2 A Clever Reply. Mme. de Maintenon once asked Lord Stair why it was that the affairs of government were so badly managed in France under a king and so well man- aged in England under a queen. *“For that very reason,” replied the English ambassador, “for when a man reigns the women rule him, and when a wo- man reigns she is ruled by men.” and be convinced.

Just above the buffet in the dining room of a ‘Richmend house there: hangs a huge, finely mounted antlered; head. This trophy of the owners hunting prowess i fasteted so firmly to the wall that'the glistening neck seems to be coming right out through the. pla When a little boy from the city saw this decoration for the ‘first time heieyed it with considerable curlosity and very evident uneasiness. It looked almost too lifelike for com- fort. ' Finally 'the: youngster ‘asked to be excused and'slipped from his chair, golng 1nto the next room. ' He return- ed to the dining room flushed with embarrassment. ¢ “What's thé tatter, Harry?” asked his host. “l wanted “to see,” explained the child sheepishly, “if that animal’s legs ‘were really-as long ds that orif he were standing on something in the next room.”—Lippincott’s. A Clear Case. The beautiful young prisoner entered the box in her own bebalf. “What 18 your age, miss?’ asked the' lawyer. ' “Forty-elght,”” was the steady reply. The feminine jury caught its breath with an audible little gasp and sat there rigid. . “How much did you pay for the hat you are wearing?”’ “Ninety-eight cents.” “Are you guilty of the crime that is charged against you?” “No.” Thus did the wily prisoner attempt to establish her veracity and then con- vince the jury that she was innocent. But don’t forget that this was a jury of women. = A verdict of incurable in- sanity was brought in.—New York Journal. “Yarbs” We Have Known. ‘What has become of the elderly lady who in the seventies and earlier al- ways referred to an- “herb” a&s a “yarb?’ The word has gone out of use. About the meanést “yarb” was a bitter weed ' named - “thoroughwort.” Then there was cammermile, dockroot and dandelfon, in their miserable part- things were “steeped.”” and you took them or had them thrust upon you “for your blood.”—Minneapolis Jour- nal. He Didn’t Push. There are some queer men in this world. Near Bristol, England, not'long ago a tall chimney of a factory tum- bled down in a gale of wind, and yet [the owner of the factory had a boy thirteen years old arrested for pushing it over to spite him. It was'sworn in court that the combined strength of 500 men would have been required. It was decided that the boy didn’t push. HER WEIGHT INCREASED FROM 100 TO 140 POUNDS.
