FULDA MAN SUICIDES
Years of Domestic Trouble End
S! Tragically.
Alexander Coffitt, 60 years old, a
resident of Fulda, Minn., ended years
of domestic strife on Thursday of last
week by slashing his throat with a
razor at the home of E. F. Lindquist,
2429 Third Avenue South, Minneap
olis.
The old man's death followed close
upon a decree granting his wife a
divorce. The decision was made laBt
week, Wednesday, and Coffitt went to
Minneapolis to look for his brother,
John Coffitt. He wanted his brother
to assist in legal matters, expecting
trouble over his property. He went
to Lindquist's, where he was well
known, and stayed all night. He
arose early, wrote a note to Lindquist
and to his attorney. Just as the
other persons in the house were aris
ing, he slashed his throat and fell
heavily to the floor. Mr. Lindquist
rushed into the room, und seeing the
prostrate man, sent for a physician.
Coffitt died in a few minutes.
The note to Mr. Lindquist was as
follows:
"I can stand my troubles no longer.
Send my body back to Fulda and get
a good coffin. Please do.
A. COFFITT."
Another note, addressed to his at
torney, arranged for the disposition
of his property.

A Professor, His Lobsters and Soma
Casks of Sea Water.
Last year a professor in one of the
Paris universities resolved to study the
habits of lobsters in his laboratory. As
the.v live in salt water, the iirst care
of the professor was, of cmir.se. to pro
cure a supply of this medium, '."lie
Common mortal will probably con ider
ft a most simple task—to provide a i'e .v
barrels of sea water. This, however,
is not so in France. Sea water con
tains salt, and the production of salt is
ii source of revenue. This made it
necessary for the professor to iirst ob
tain the permission of the minister of
finance before he could travel a:ul
transport the water. When his appli
cation readied the ministry, a sub
ordinate otiicial was directed to inquire
into the standing of the petitioner.
This involved considerable correspond
ence, which passed through numerous
channels and finally reached the chief
of the department, who now initiated
another investigation in order to as
certain why a Parisian professor
should be so anxious to lower the
level of the Atlantic ocean. After sev
eral weeks the inspector made favor
able report. Some days later the peti
tioner was notified of the favorable
consideration of his request in the
usual elaborate official language, ac
companied by circulars giving extracts
from the penal code relative to in
fringements of the salt monopoly.
Finally, after months of waiting, the
professor was enabled to have some
casks filled with salt water at a des
ignated point on the seashore, of
course under the supervision of anoth
er official, who duly issued a permit
for the transportation of the liquid into
the interior.,
COSTLY RAZORS.
Some Gold Handled That Sell For $50.
Handles of Silver and of Ivory.
If a man were content to shave him
self with a razor having a hard rubber
handle, as indeed most men are, he
could buy one with a blade of very ex
cellent quality for a dollar, but there
are razors far more expensive than
this.
Thus there are sold razors with han
dles of 18 carat gold and of plain
smooth finish that bring $50 each. A
pair of such razors in a plain silver
box can be bought for a hundred dol
lars.
But $50 is not the limit of what one
may pay for a gold handled razor. If
the handle were elaborately chased its
cost might mount up to twice that, or
$200 for a pair.
Tnere are also sold, among those
more expensive, silver handled razors
which range in price from $6.50 to
$30 each, $6.50 being the price for one
with a plain silver handle, while those
more costly have their handles more or
less elaborately chased or carved.
A man who did not altogether like a
hard rubber handled razor might find
his fancy suited with one having a
handle of ivory, and an ivory handled
razor need not necessarily be expen
sive. A razor with a plain Ivory han
dle can be bought for $2. Of course
any carving would add to the cost.
Costly razors are usually sold for
gifts.—New York Sun.
The Age of Marriage.
The age of legal capacity to marry in
England is much lower than in Italy.
The English law has adopted In this
respect a law of Roman and even
Athenian origin, by which the ages of
fourteen and twelve were fixed as the
marriageable ages of males and fe
males, respectively. In Italy the age
Is fixed by the civil code at eighteen
and fifteen- Formerly the age of spous
als in England was as low as seven
for both sexes, but such marriage was
not considered perfect, for the parties
might disagree to it when they ar
rived at the mature age of twelve or
fourteen.
Poets' Themes.
The cynics of our time have white
washed many of the vices. Poets like
the earlier Swinburne practically
praised lust as an expression of the
love of life. Poets like Mr. Rudyard
Kipling practically praised cruelty as
an expression of the love of life. Poets
like Mr. Henley and Mr. John David
son have practically praised drunken
ness, or violence, or obscenity as ex
pressions of the love of life.—G. K.
Chesterton in London News.
Proof Positive.
The policeman bad shot a fleeing
prisoner.
"It was an accident," he explained to
his superior.
"What proof have you of that?"
"Why, I hit him, didn't I?" rejoined
the accused with an air of finality.—
Philadelphia Ledger.
A 8urprise, All Right.
"My husband has promised to allow
me to choose what I want for my
birthday."
"Oh, then there will be no surprises
this year."
"Yes, there will. He will be sur
prlced enough when he gets the bill."
Better Than Dying.
Teacher—Now, children, remember
the text, "Eat, drink and be merry, for
tomorrow you die." Pupil Please,
teacher, in our family we don't. Wo
all take castor oil next day.—Life.
A Helping Hand.
Rich Old Uncle—And remember,
dear, that wben I die all that I have
goes to you. Niece—Thank you, uncle.

orn-idi'iutio in tbo purchase
of a cream separator. That i« what von buy a separator to
accomplish. 1'ut there pru two I iniis of cleHn skimming.
One in under ir.eal or favoiahle conditions—warm milk, from
fresh coivs, runum cream, with reduced capacity. Th«*
other is under prac'ic I ewry-rlay farm use conditions—Willi
milk Runptitnea warm nd sometimes cool, cows a^ they come,
cram as heavy as pus-ib'e instead of as Ihin, and capacity
'ar^e so that the work is finished that, much more quickly.
Tli«"-e two kinds of clean skimming in:-rk the ':r«t. great
did"' ri:uce between th" DK L-\V\L arii other kinds of crt am
f-npara'ors. There is a sma I i-ut material difference between
the DP] LAVAL and the other kinds of machine? undef fav

practical "A-en'day u-e conditions-the difference between
til" "'A LPM A Dl' C' s\stfin aid other superior construc
tional features of the DE LAVAL machines and even the
best of oth^r separators.
This is the difference \vh:ch of itself snv the cost of a
DE LAVAL Firm machine iu six months or a year, and in
ere un^ry line several times a year, with a result that 98 per
cent., of the world's creamery separation tcdav is done with
DE LAVAL machines. A DE LAVAL catalogue makes
plain the REASONS for this diffeience and is to be had lor
the asking.
