Athletic club basketball five. This time it was the Grand Rapids quint that took the count. In his “Koll’'s Kollum,” of the Cass Lake Times, M. N. Koll says that “Bob” DeLury will not be a candidate for sheriff of s county, but that Mack Kennedy will file for the job. Mack has served as deputy sheriff for several years and would make a mighty fine successor to DeLury. Four candidates for Minnesota postmasterships have been recom- mended to the postoffice department by F. B. Lynch of St. Paul, demo- cratic national committeeman, and the appointments are expected to be made public in a few days. The pros- pective postmasters are A. J. Orth, at North St. Paul: Charles Mangskau, at Breckenridge: H. C. Kiefer, at Barnesville, and Herman R. Meisch at Argyle. James J. Hill, “empire builder,” farmer and financier, paid $1,000 for a glimpse of a l4-inch ear of Minne- sota-grown corn, John J. Furlong, who was yesterday re-elected presi- dent of the Minnesota State Agricul- tural society, produced the 14-inch ear at the session of the society at the capitol and Mr. Hill, the princi- pal speaker at the session, said he would make good his promise to pay $1,000 to Mr. Furlong should the lat- ter obtain a sample of such corn grown in the state. At the close of Mr. Hill's address, President Furlong pro- duced the corn, He exhibited several 14-inch ears, declaring they were “samples he had brought from home.” Mr. Hill promptly made out his check for $1,000. State Fair Finances. The annual reports of Secretary J. C. Simpson and Treasurer A. H. Tur- rittin of the Minnesota State Agri- cultural society were filed at a meet- ing of the organization in St. Paul The latter’s report shows the cash re- ceipts for 1913 were $316,814.19 and cash disbursements $313,613,79, leav- ing, with the balance of the previ- ous r and the contingent fund a treasurer’s balance on December 1, 1913, of $10,512.77. The expenses of the 1913 fair, including $69,670.58 paid as premiums, aggregated $217,- 244.32.

Thousands Perish as City Is Wiped OQut by Eruption. 5 There is no reason this season why the woman who wakes her own dress. es should not make her coats also. The day of the notched tailored collar and rever is practically past except for certain garments such as the riding habit and other strictly tailored garments. With a little care a coat may be turned out at home quite as satisfactorily as if made by a tailor. This design, 7889, is excellent for serge, cloth, moire or any favored suiting materinl. In cutting a coat greater care must be taken, perhaps, than with any oth- er garment to see that the pattern is placed properly on the material. The perforations showing the strnight of the material should be followed im- plicitly for if the grain of the materi- al does not run in the right direction the coat will never fit as it should; the fronts will fall apart when it is unbuttoned. and there will be various other little annoying defects that mark the garment “home-made” Ih stitching the seams begin one at the top and stitch down: the correspond- ing seam must be started at the bot- tom and stitched up: this will pre- vent any twist which might otherwise occur. This coat may be made in size 36 with 23 yards of 42 inch material. The pattern is cut in 5 s 34 to 42 This Is a Perfect Pattern. Be sure to state correct size, measur- irg over the fullest part of the bust for dimensions.

The city of Kagoshima, Japan, with 64,000 inhabitants, was totally de- stroyed by a flood of fire from the Sakurashima volcano, which burst into activity on Jan. 11. The three villages on the island of Sakura were blotted out by the molten lava which poured from the crater, and thousands of persons are believed to have per- ished there. DEATH LOSS MA AGGREGATE 7,000 Estimates of Gasualties in Japa- nese Earihquake, London, Jan. 17.—The. Central News says only 5,000 of the inhabitants of Salkurashima escaped when the vol- canic eruptions of the last five days all but destroyed the island in the gulf of Kagoshima. Sakurashima had from 12,000 to 15,000 inhabitants. If the estimate that only 5,000 escaped proves true the volcano disaster cost more than FOR THE GRIP Peruna Is Sometimes Used With 'A grent many ‘people use Peru- na for the grip. Some use it as soon as the grip ‘begins, taking it during the acute stage of the dis- ease, Cclaiming for it great effi- cacy in shorten- ing the disease, and especially | in shortenin Mrs. Jane Gift. {no atter stagon, - Many people take it after they have had the grip. Their convalescence is slow. They have suffered along for a month or two, without any signs of complete recovery. Then they resort to Peruna as a tonic, with splendid results. Mrs. Jane Gift, R. F."D. 1, Athens, | Ohio, whose portrait appears above, writes: “I think I would have been dead long ago if it had not been for | Peruna. Six years ago I had la grippe very bad. The doctor came to see me every day, but I gradually grew worse,-. I told my husband I thought 1 would surely die if I did not get relief soon. “One day I picked up the news- paper and accidentally found a testi- monial of a woman who had been cured of grip by Peruna. I told my husband I wanted to try it. He went directly to the drug store and got a bottle of Peruna. I could see the im- provement in a very short time ana ‘was soon able to do my work. I con- tinued using it until I was entirely cured.” Mr. Victor Patneaude, 328 Madison St, Topeka, Kas, writes: “Twelve years ago I had a severe attack of grippe and I never really recovered my health and strength, but ‘weaker every year, until I was unable to work. “Two years ago I began usinz Pe- runa and it built up my strength so that in a couple of months I was able to go to work again. This winter I had another attack of la grippe, but Peruna soon drove it out of my sys- tem. My wife and I consider it a household remedy.” Those who object to liquid medi- -| cines can now obtain Peruna Tablets, Ask Your Druggisi for Free Peruna Lucky Day Almanac for 1914, 7,000 lives. Thirty-three inhabitants of Sakura- shima escaped death by hiding in a cave. While lava, hot rocks and ashes seethed around them the refu- gees remained unhurt.
