On Tuesday evening of this week, Miss Mary Ratican of Blackduck, was united in marriage to DeVere Elmo Wolfang of Minneapolis, Rev. Beau- lieu officiating. Only relatives and a few intimate friends of the bride and groom were inattendance. * The bride wore a beautiful gown of white embroidered voile with mes- aline and carried a shower bouquet of white roses and lilies of the valley. She was attended by her cousin, Miss Olive Gillespie of Bottineau, N. D., who wore a dress of white and pink voile with white messaline. The groom was attended by Robert Rati- can, a brother of the bride. Following the ceremony a wedding dinner was served at the home of the bride’s parents after which they left for Duluth where they sailed on one of the Anchor line steamers for a trip on the Great Lakes, visiting De- troit and other points. After a brief visit at Mr. Wolfang’s old home in White Pidgeon, Mich., they will re- turn to Minneapolis where the groom is connected with the Rowe Lumber company. They expect to go to housekeeping at 3209 Hennepine avenue where | bunch of boys playing on the Capitol IN BASEBALL AS IN LIFE Senator Gardner's Words ef Hope Might Well Be Applied to El- ther of the Games.

First come first served. 209 4th St. Bemidji. Great Artist Poorly Pald. The report from New York of the sale of the two famous portraits by Velasquez, the one of Phillp IV. and the other of his minister, the Grand Duke Olivarez, brings to light the in- teresting fact that he received “on ao- count” the sum of eight hundred reals (£8) for these and one of Senor Garciperes. At very much the same time Van Dyck, despite a highly suc- cessful time in northern Italy, was gndlnu tg his cost that Antwerp, his irthplace, had little lking for his genius, In fact, we find him &fating that at one time he had a “certain fat brewer as his only patron.” And even that patron fafled him, because When it came to a matter of remuner- ation the brewer’s greed shrank from gn extortionate payment of two pis- toles for the painting of one portrait! —T. P.’s Weekly. ’ ;l-'-ound His Place. Two New Ebgland men were talk- ing over the days of their boyhood ‘when one referred to an old school mate who had a most unfortunate dis- position. “I often wonder what became of Dick,” said his friend, “It always seemed to me that it wouldn't be pos- sible for him to get any enjoyment out of life or to find any sort of work that suited him.” “Oh, he's fixed all right,” said the other man. “I saw him in Chicago last year, where he has a job that suits him perfectly. He is station mas- ter in a place where there are fifty traing a day coming and going, and Dick sees somebody miss every one of them.” —_—— His Obligation to Nature. Nature was his nurse and playfel- low. For him she would let slip be- tween the leaves the golden shafts of sunlight that fell just within his grasp; she would send wandering breezes to visit him with the balm of bay and resinous gums; to him the tall red woods nodded familiarly and sleepily, | ons. the bumble bees buszsed, and the rooks cawed a slumbrous accompanl ment.—Bret Harte. pop fly that, if safely handled, would have retired the other side. He had to stand for many shouts of derision and deprecating epithets, and was greatly cast down. Senator Gardner called him over to him. “Do you know,” said the senator, “I can remember, as if it were only last week, a game I played in, at cen- ter fleld, when I was about your age, and how sore everybody got at me be- cause I kept muffing balls, always at the worst possible time. In the last inning I came to the bat with two runs against us'and knocked a three- bagger that put us one ahead. And all the boys that had been making fun of my flelding were the first to h'ist me to their shoulders and carry me off the fleld in a blaze of glory. So you can see how little sense there’d be In being cast down over a poor play, or swelled up over a good rlay, when people are so quickly swayed by a streak of luck. If I were you I wouldn’t care a continental what they sald about me. - You may lam out a home run the next time up.” And the boy seemed properly en couraged. HE SIGNED THE REGISTER But the Buxom Widow's New Husband Wrote Just What She Had Taught Him. A buxom and winsome widow decld- ed to continue her late husband’s busi- ness (wholesale meat purveyor), and appointed his confidential and reliable man, one John Jinx, as her manager. John, though an astute and clever bus- iness man, could neither read nor write. The widow partly cured him of the latter defect by teaching him to write: “Settled, John Jinx,” when giv- ing a receipt for accounts paid to him. The business improved and pros- pered, as llkewise did the amatory feelings between the widow and John, the latter fructifylng in a proposal and acceptance of marriage. After the usual preliminaries the ceremony took place,:followed by an adjournment to| the vestry to complete the legal for- malitfes. The necessary particulars were duly entered.in the marriage register, and happy John:was the first asked to sign. John, ‘somewhat blushing, took pen in hand, and clearly and unmistakably ‘wrote as his signature in the register: “Settled, John Jinx.” Synthetic Diamonds. There recently appeared in Paris some diamonds having all the ear- marks of the genuine article, and they were offered to a number of dealers at very attractive prices. Certain rigid tests were applied by experts en- gaged in the trade, with the result that they were proven to be slightly different from natural stones. The diamonds are believed to be manu- factured by a synthetic process, but by experts who examined them they were claimed to be genuine. From this it seems the secret of making dia- monds i8 really being solved, and it will not be long until this new product of the electric furnace will take its place with synthetic rubies, sapphires and other manufactured gems which are now gold in the open market,—Ex. ~ 5 Shoulders and Desks. Symmetry in the arrungement of seats and desks in school rooms works against the health of the child, sccord- ing to a recent statement by Superin- tendent of Schools Mrs. Ella Flagg | Young of Chicago. Mrs. Young says that many children become round- shouldered in a short time because seats are not of proper height to al- low pupils to work comfortably at their desks. “Hardly a child is round- shouldered when he enters the pri- mary grade,” she says, “yet many are decidedly so before they reach the fourth grade.” She thinks that the fdea of symmetry of desks should be sbandoned for the idea of the sym- metry and health of the child. Kinder Skittish. A good old mammy of ante-bellum fays went into a shoe store and asked for “a pair of ever'day shoes—small tens.” The clerk selected a pair of men’s heavy plow shoes for her and she seated herself to try them on. The clerk remained standing in front of her. She glanced up and asked: “Honey, is you all gwine to stan’ dere while I tries ’em on?” The clerk answered: “Why, no, auntie; I'll move on if you wish it.” She sald: “Please do, honey, ‘cause I'se white folks raised and I'se kinder skittish.”—Chicago Post.
