Two new buildings have been built and a great many improvements made on old buildings. The Bagley Mercantile - Co., are ‘building a large concrete and brick store 60x80 feet in size. A front en- tirely made of plate glass adds to the attractiveness of the building. The interfor is being done in plaster with & sheet metal cefling. A cash carrier system and electric lights add to the many modern conveniences to be in- stalled. This building is a handsome addition to the town. ~Last fall Ben Bredeson built a small frame bungalow next to the Thorpe residence. ‘This ‘building is ah" httractiveé ‘addition to the street where it is situated.

The Beard In History. — Sir Willlam Treloar, in his recently published book, “A Lord Mayor's Diary,” points out that the chief mag- istrate of the city of London is chosen in quite a different manner from that adopted by any other municipality in the kingdom, remarks London An- swers, LTl e e R Instead of being elected by the mem- bers of the corporation, or council, who may, and often do, for political party reasons, choose someone who has never done suit or services to the town, London’s lord mayor can be chosen only - from those who 'have served an apprenticeship of some yem to the corporation. He must first be elected an alder- : man by the ratepayers of his' ward, |’ and accepted and sworn in by the court of aldermen ; then he must have served the office of sheriff, fo which position he has. to. be elected'by the liverymen, and afterward approved by the sovereign. Then, and not till then, is he eligible to ask the liverymen to elect him as lord mayor; the court of aldérmen aft erward again having the power to re- fuse him, the approval of the sovereign being also again mecessary before he can take office. ] ——————— Porcelain Money. A new element may be introduced into the fleld of numismatics by the proposal to issue porcelaln money throughout Germany. - 'With this pur- pose in view, a Meissen porcelain fac- tory has already manufactured speci- mens of coins ranging from 10 pfennig to 5 mark pieces. How successful the new proposal will be remains tg be seen. Its adoption would mark in- teresting breach with the traditional use of gold, silver, and bronze; and the well-known formulae, A, AR and AE, of the catalogues would have to be supplemented. Apart from the occa- slonal employment of electrum, bil- lon, brass, and potin, iron in the Pelo- ponnesus,and glass for coin weights in Arabia, the three established metals, in their varying forms, have rarely been challenged. cesnem— e et ey : Vontillflon. o \\., went - 'Northwest Auto and Truck Exposition. e ———— THE MINNESOTA STATE FAIR, September 4 to Ilag presents the most stupendous educational and en- tertainment program of its entire history.
