For fifty years it has been the chief ambition of many a veteran who wore the blue to occupy this im- portant post. Most of the these must now understand that they must go to their graves wtih their ambition un- realized. When Saltzgaber quits he must pass the office on to a civilian, probably the son of a veteran, who will dispense the government minis- trations to the fast thinning ranks of the Grand Army. The veterans are dying now much faster than their comrades fell before Confederate bul- lets from ’61 to '65. But Gaylord M. Saltzgaer is still in his rugged manhood. To look at him one would predict that he is good for many more years of active life. “I haven't done much fighting since *65,” he said laughingly. “Some of the ‘boys’ like to talk over the old days constantly, but I have had too busy a life, and consequently I have forgotten many of the details of my But when I got him thrilling experiences.” started, he related many adventures of the war. Mr. Saltzgaber was the youngest of six brothers whom his patriotic par- ents sent out with the Union army. All thro\lg.h the war the boys watched out for each other, and all came back to the rejoicing parents in Ohio. At the end of three years Gaylord had had enough of war, and planned to be mustered out at the end of his en- listment, But at Pulaski, Tenn., Capt. Culver of his regiment made a speech urging the soldiers to re-enlist to help preserve the Union; and Gaylord Saltzgaber, then only 18 years old, but a veteran soldier, gave up his dreams of home and signed to fight until the end of the war. He was mustered out with his regiment in| August, 1865. Returning from the front, Mr. Saltzgaber took up blacksmithing as a trade. He then attended a business college in Poughkeepsie, N. Y., and returned to Ohio to be a teacher. He studied law and became one of the best known attorneys of the Buckeye State. His long and useful career in western Ohio brought him forward politically. Though he never sought office, he was elected mavor of Van Wert at the age of 23, and for four years he served in the Ohio senate. A dozen years ago he was the choice of his party for United States senator, TWO JOHNSONS IN COURT One Pays $2.00 Fine, the Other Jailed to Sober Up. Frank and Osmund Johnson were tried before Judge Crowell this'morn- ing on a charge of being drunk. Os- mund was fined two dollars which he paid and Frank was locked in the city jail until 5:30 this afternoon to sober up and then travel north at six o’clock.

Every ten years the Eskimos hold the dance to the dead, when ghosts are supposed to come out of' their coffins and visit the Kos-ga, where they are given a feast, and retire well filled for another ten years. Some- times the food is taken to the bury- ing ground to save the spirits the trouble of moving When a child is born among the islanders it takes the name of the last deceased member of the family, and on it devolves the duty of .feeding its foster father’s spirit. The Eskimos have a horror of being childless, because their spirita will languish and their name be for gotten. As they say “S’pose no mik- a-nina (children)—ghost plenty hun- gry.” Often an Hskimo will beggar himself giving a great feast in honor of his illustrious ancestor; but he gains great renown thereby, and places all his visitors under lifelong obligations to him.—Wide World Mag: ezine. Reminder to Be Good. The “Bon box” was another device the Alcotts had for remembering to ba good. Inside the front door of their house stood a box which served as the symbol of an honor system, for into it at the end of each day the child who had been good and hadn’t disregarded a single rule of conduct dropped a Jit- tle slip bearing her name and the code word “Bon” with three crosses after it, like this: X X X. It was such & distinction to be a depositor-at the end of the day, that I asked whether 1 might be allowed to work for it, too. I do not remember how often my name went into that box attached to a bon slip, but I do know that I used to examine my stock of virtues very carefully in those days.—From “Beth but was defeated. ‘Wood in Harper’s Bazar. Alcott’s Playmate,” by Lydia Hosmer NOT IN IMMEDIATE DANGER Irishman’s l:omplnlon in Lion's cng. Had No Intention of Making a Meal of Him. “Want & job, do yer,” sald the man: ager of the traveling circus to the hungry Irish applicant. “Well, I'll tell yer what I'll do. . You shall have two dollars a week and yer grub if you'll dress up in a tiger skin and lie down In the corner of the lion’s cage. Fact Is, we're rather short of animals just tow.” ’ Frightened as he was at the pros- pect of entering the lion’s den, our sut‘of-work friend was forced by hun- ger to accept, and having had a good square meal, was duly sewn up in the tiger skin and bundled . through a small door at the back of the lion’s cage. Trembling with terror his eyes no sooner got used to the gloom—for It was not yet show-time and the lights were out—when he perceived the king of beasts glaring at him from the ofpsite side of the cage. “Oh, oh, oh,” cried he, “my poor wife! Shall I ever see Ould Oireland again? Oh; ob, don’t eat me Mr. Lion, don’t eat me!” Just at this moment he WAS as8- tounded to hear from the interior of the lion a gruff voice which said:— “That’s all right, cocky, I'm an Irish< man myself.” BIG NAME FOR SMALL BOAT Youngster Felt He Had a Right to It, Seeing What His Playmates Had Called Thelrs. The small boy of the family had just become the owner of a 14-foot row boat and, after the custom which pre- vails on Great South bay, was entitled to the title of “Captain.” Because of his new dignity he assumed a crit- ical attitude. His first discovery that things were out of kilter on the bay was announced to his father when he fore the production of ‘Thermidor he had 'the: thought of one day riting ch & play. Gradually the character of Fabienne shaped itself; Labussiere was devised later to fit Coquelin. Ev- erything that he read about that epoch of the French ‘Tevolution, and the ideas which ‘this ‘reading.inspired, he wrote down in the'form of rough notes. En- gravings, maps, prints and:other doc- uments of the tife he womlly collect- ed. > “Memors and histories he mnuud and indexed, filing away the index ref- erences in hh file cases or dossiers. At the time of his death Sardou had many hundreds of these dossiers, old and new. Some of the older ones had been worked up into plays, while ‘the newer ones were merely raw material for future dramas. When the idea of & play had measurably shaped itselt in his mind he wrote out a skeleton plot, which he:placed in its dossier. ‘There {t" might- lie indefinitely. In this shape- ‘Thermidor’ remained for | nearly twenty. years, and ‘Theodora’ for ten. 4 . “When he considered that the time was_ ripe for one of his embryonic plays Sardou ‘would take out that par- ticular dossier, read over the mate- rial, and lay ‘it aside again. After it had fermented in his brain for a time he would, if the inspiration seized him, write out a scetario. -After this he be- gan the actual writing of the play.” MOST RAPID GROWER KNOWN n Proved That 'Turnlr; Seea Gains Fifteen Times - Its. Own Weight In’ One Minute. It has been said that the seed of the globe ‘turnip when growing increases its own weight 15 times within a min- ute. The seed of this turnip is ex- ceedingly -minute, being not larger than the twentieth, part of an inch in diameter, and"yet in the course of a few months the seed will be developed by the soil into 27,000,000 times the bulk of the original, and this in addi- tion to a considerable bunch of leaves. On peat ground turnips have been found to increase by growth 15,990 times the weight of their seed each day they stood. The fungi offer an instance of re- markably rapid growth. The great puff ball will attain the size of a pump-|. kin in & single night, and Lindley cal- culated that the cells wereof it is com- posed will multiply at the rate of 60, 600,000 & minute. Many -seeds: germinate in a very short period—the cress in two days; spinach, turnips and kidney beans in three ‘days; lettuce in four; melons and gourds in five; most of the grain seed in a week; hyssop at the end of a month. But others remain for a very long period ‘without showing signs of germination. Expected-a “Ripping” Time. A merry schoolboy was about to spend his vacation on his grandfa- ther's farm. He expected to enjoy a great and glorious time. The day before his departure, his mother, pass- ing his room, saw him kneeling be- /side a chair in the corner with his head bowed. As the lad was still in came from a tour of inspection. “Pop,” said he, “there’s two duck- Ing skiffs in the canal, neither more’n about ten feet long, and just big enough for one man, and what do you think they are named?” “Tell me, son.” “One is ‘Dreadnought 1’ and the other is ‘Dreadnought IL’” " “What are you going to call your hoat?” “I think T'll call her ‘Indomitable.”’” Political Opinions. “As a rule the son of 20 years today holds political opinions a little in vance of those of his father. At 30 he generally adopts the politics of his grandfather, and at 40 the politics of his great-grandfather. -At 50 he has nothing that can be called politics, but merely a set of prejudices of no use to anybody.” Thus Bernard Shaw i an admirable example of confusion of thought. What are urejudices? Opin. ions for which there is no warrant in reality. It is, of course, commonly ob gerved that the opinions of 20 are formed upon a’wide and deep knowl edge of human nature. Men of 50 are recognized by all the - younger generation ‘o lack that altogether. the same position when she repassed the door, some ten minutes later, the mother stopped. “Well, Richard, what are you do- ing?” The boy looked up pleasantly. “I'm 'most through,” he announced, with a deprecatory wave of the hand. Then after another moment or so of silence, “I'm just getting my prayers said up before I go to grandpa’s in the country. I ’spect I'll be too busy to say ’em there,” he explained, - For Floors Interior Woodwork and Farniture Without a doubt the toughest - and most durable finish made. , Easily applied, dries over night GIVEN HARDWARE CO.

The Story of a Wonderful Watch Fifty years - only. separate the clumsy, inaccurate old time-keeper from that maryel of pocket mechanism —the Bemidji Special. In those days it took one man a year to build a watch. Today 12,000 are turned out. every twenty:fou- hours in the United States—over 4,000.000 a year. While you are reading this statement more than 25 complete watches were manu- factured. The Bemidji Special is no more like the watch of fifty years ago than the modern harvesting machine is like the old fashioned hand scythe. AROUND THE WORLD ON A DROP OF OIL Did you ever stop and think what a wonderful piece of mechanism a good watch like the Bemidji Special is? Take the hairspring for instance. One mile of this wire weighs less than half apound. The b lance- wheel makes 18,000 vibrations an hour—157,000,- 000 a year. ‘It moves 3,558 miles a year on less than one-tenth of & drop of oil. If a locomotive, having six foot driv- ing wheels, " were started at the equator, and should run uniil its wheels had performed the same num- ber of revolutions that a balance wi.eel does in one year, it would make more than twenty-eight complete- circuits of | the earth. . The Bemidji Special is adjusted to every change and condition. ' Baked in an oven, frozen in a refrigerator, adjusted to position, put through a 700 hour test for accuracy, can you wonder why this wonderful watch is The Standard of this community today.
