POWER FROM THE' AIR
MARVELOUS -PROCESS BEING
EVOLVED BY NORWEGIANS^-OF
VAST IMPORTANCE TO AGRICUL-
TURE. The agriculturists of the world are
liko Coleridge's shipwrecked mariner,
who saw "watei, water everywhere,
but not a drop to drink."
There is an abundance of nitrogen,
foi which the earth hungers and thirsts,
all about them, but the problem ever
has been to make it available. Many
have been -working on that problem in
this and other countries, but in this
great agricultural realm no one has yet
established a practical solution. Suc
cessful processes were advertised sever
al years ago by an American company
operating at Niagara Falls, but the re
sults have not yet become visible to the
naked eye. A professor of the agricul
tmal department, a couple of years ago,
proclaimed the discovery of nitrate cul
tures that were to revivify and reclaim
the tiled and worn acres*of the whole
roand world, and which the farmers
could have for the asking. But they,
too, have apparently failed to "make
good."
It may remain for the little countrv
of Norway to lead the way in extract
ing nitrogen from the atmosohere and
putting it into such shape that it can
be used as a fertilizer. The story of
this wonderful experiment, which is be
ing conducted near Christiania, will be
told in the Normannaheimer depart
ment of next Sunday's Journal.
The importance of the work cannot
be overestimated. The process being
evolved by the Norwegians is attract
ing attention in Germany and Italy.
Perhaps the International Agricultural
congress will develop it. The nitrates
ot Lhile and Peru will be exhausted in
another quarter of a century, but if the
air will yield a cheaper and better pro
duct we can face the prospect with
equanimity. With nitrogen cheap and
abundant, agriculture will be revolu
tionized, and as the world's population
becomes more congested that is what is
needed. Don't fail to read the story
of the wonderful experiments of the
Norwegians in The Sunday Journal.
ST. PAUL IS LACKING
IN MUSICALc TASTE
the publi to attend
failur
recitals by the best artists, shows an
entire lack of appreciation for the
highest form of instrumental music."
So said Miss Gertrude E. Hall, presi
dent of the Schubert club, in her an
nual address to that organization in
Schubert hall, St. Paul, yesterday.
We have hundreds of students in
bt. Paul," she continued, "and as
many more people who claim they just
love music. Consequently I cannot un
derstand the lukewarm attitude of a
large majority of those who claim they
are music-lovers."'
The club elected officers for this
year as follows: President, Miss Ger
trude Hall vice president, Mrs. C. E.
Furness corresponding secretary, Miss'
Catherine Hale as^/stant correspond
ing secretary, Miss Marie Hartsmck
recording secretary, Miss Cornelia
Lusk assistant recording secretary,
Miss Alice Perry treasurer, Mrs.
Haydn 8. Cole librarian, Mrs. J. W.
Thompson assistant librarian, Mrs. D.
F. Colville.
TEST FO^L TEACHERS
Normal Board Would Require a Phys
ical Examination.
Judge H. L. Buck of Winona intro
duced a resolution yesterday at the
meeting of the state normal school
board, providing a physical examina
tion for all persons seeking admission
to normal schools. The obiect of the
resolution was to exclude persons suf
fering with tuberculosis and other se
rious ailments, so they may'not be pre
pared for teaching. The resolution also
provided for excluding persons addicted
to vicious habits.
Other members of the board feared
that such a resolution exceeded their
authority, and a committee was appoint
ed to examine the question and report
at the next meeting. It may be that
legislation will be necessary before such
a rule can be enforced.
HUSBAND IS ARRESTED
Montevideo Man Charged with Compli
city in Criminal Operation.
Ernest C. Robinson was arraigned in
municipal court yesterday afternoon on
the charge of being accessory to the
performance of a fatal criminal opera
tion upon Helen E. Robinson, his wife.
The defendant wafc brought from his
home in Montevideo, Minn., yesterday
afternoon and taken directly to court.
He was released upon furnishing an
$1,800 bond.
It is charged that Robinson took his
wife to Mrs. Hatch's place at 32 West
ern avenue and made all the arrange
ments for an operation that resulted fa
tally. Mrs. Hatch is now awaiting
trial.
NIQHTflARE
Gives point to the fact that excessive or
irregular eating disturbs the digestion.
Nightmare or night hag has its day time
correspondence in the undue fullness
after eating, with the belchmes and sour
or bitter rising so often experienced after
too hasty or too hearty eating.
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
cures dyspepsia or bad stomach. When
the weak stomach is strengthened and
invigorated the whole body shares in the
increased strength derived from "food
properly digested and perfectly assimi
lated.
I was a victim of sleeplessness and ex
treme nervousness Induced by chronic indi
gestion and I felt heavy, tired and worn out
continually," writes Miss Mary Smith, of 1613
No. Wahsatch Street, Colorado Springs, Colo.
"Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery was
the only medicine which relieved me. With
in a week after I began using It that heavy
oppressed feeling after meals had left me,
and 1 found that 1 was able to sleep better
than for months previously. My appetite
was gradually restored, general system was
toned up, nervousness became a thing of the
past and 1 have now been in splendid health
for over nine months."
Sometimes a selfish dealer tempted by
the little more profit paid on the sale of
less meritorious medicines will offer the
customer a substitute as being "just as
fettye"
ood as the "Discovety." I may be
for him because it pays better, but
it is not as good for you, If you want the
medicine that has cured others, and
which you believe will cure you.

CHARGES MANY WRONGS
THERESE THIEL ACCUSES HUS
BAND AND LAWYER JN PLEA
FOR DIVORCE.
twenty-two years of married
Thiel is seeking a divorce
After
life, Therese
from Carl Thiel. Her easels on next.
Saturday's special term calendar. Her
complaint contains some most unusual
allegations against her hustSand and
his Duluth lawyer.
The plaintiff is 40 years old and her
husband is 46. Until recently they op
erated a photograph gallery at Duluth.
They have two children now in the cus
tody of the husband, who is at present
a photographer in Hibbmg, Minn. The
wife alleges, she supported herself by
canvassing until her health failed and
that she is now virtually a pauper.
In addition to,numerous chaiges of
cruel and inhuman treatment, the plain
tiff alleges that in December, 1903, at
Duluth, "the defendant entered into
an agreement with a Duluth attorney
for the purpose of beginning against
one Julius Kelleschon an action, Dased
upon the alleged alienation of the plain
tiff's affections from Thiel.
Mrs. Thiel alleges that false reports
about her and Kellerschon were circu
lated. She asserts that the attorney
advised her to go to South Dakota and
institute an action for divorce against
her husband. It is alleged that this
was done so as to get her out of the
state and thus further the suit against
Kellerschon. She says she went to
Sioux Falls and there pretended to es
tablish a residence and began divorce
proceedings.
During ner absence she alleges a set
tlement of the alienation of affections
case was arranged and that Kellerschon
paid $2,500 to Thiel and his attorney.

INCOURTATNEWYORK
"Peanuts" Robinson, the brains of
the big Vaughan grain brokerage
swindle, will not join Edward A.
Vaughan in the Hennepin bastile for
some time. He had a hearing yesterday
before United States Commissioner
Shields of New York, where he is await
ing extradition, but the case was con
tinued to March 6 to allow Postoffice
Inspector Boyle to secure the further
proof of his guilt required by the New
York law.
Teresa Kerricks and Lena Leitzman,
both of Minneapolis, testified that they
had been in the employ of the Qommis
sion firm which pullecl $70,000 into it's
office the Metropolitan Life build
ing. They swore that they saw Robin
son receive money orders from custom
ers, but could not swear that the com
missions were never carried out. This
was not sufficient to satisfy the New
York extradition law.
"Peanuts," as he is known to the
postoffice inspectors who have investi
gated him several times for alleged of
fenses against the postal laws, or
Hubert T. Robinson, as he is named in
the indictment and' the New York dis
patches, is supposed (to be the orig
inator of one of the cleverest swindles
on record. Vaughan, who was indicted
with him and now awaits him in the
Hennepin county jail, gives Robinson all
the credit for planning and executing
the deal which made such a vivid im
pression on the public that letters and
money are still coming in from remote
towns where the news fthe exposure
of the firm's methods has failed to fol
low its lurid advertising.
BELLBOY SUSPECTED OF
MANY' CLEYER THEFTS
Detectives at police headquarters
S
are trying to connect the theft of
B. Peisinger's grip n
"m Tnoo^i i TTQI-*-.
with Joseph Hart
lbo now locked up the West hotel bell
at Central station on a charge of lar
ceny.
The boy's scheme was clever, ac
cording to the police. He would enter
a guest's room and take a grip and
immediately check it at the checkroom.
The owner would, of course, miss the
grip and report it at the desk, but no
one thought of looking in the checks
room for it. The hotel would have to
stand good for the theft, and after
the visitor left the grip could be re
claimed.
Peisinger's grip was found in the
checkroom and no one could account
for its being there. Hart is said to
have confessed to several thefts and
an effort will be made to get him to
own up to the Peisinger robbery. Peis
inger's grip containea several articles
of valuable jewelry.

I am bringing out another new magazine that you will come pretty close to

THE SCRAP BOOK is the most elastic thing that ever happened in the way of a
magazineelastic enough to carry anything from a tin whistle to a battleship. Every-
thing: that appeals to the human brain and human heart comes within its compassfiction,
which is the backbone of periodica! circulation biography, review, philosophy, science,
art, poetry, wit, humor, pathos, satire, the weird, the mysticaleverything that can be
classified and everything that cannot be classified. A paragraph, a Mttle bit, a saying,
an editorial, a joke, a maxim, an epigram.
Nothing Like It in the World
There isn*t anything inlhe world just like THE SCRAP BOOK. I is an idea on
which we have been working for several years, and for which we have been gathering
materials. W have bought hundreds and hundreds of scrap books,from all over the
country, some of them a century old, and are still buying them. From these books we
are gathering and classifying an enormous number of gems, and facts and figures, and
historical and personal bits that are of rare value. Furthermore, we have a corps of peo-
ple ransacking libraries, reading all the, current publications, the leading daily papers,
and digging out curious and quaint facts and useful facts and figures from reference book,
cyclopedia, etc., etc
Don't fail to get a copy of this first issue of THE SCRAP
BOOK. It sells at the price at which all our other maga-
zines sellTen Cents a Copy and One Dollar by the Year.
