I said, "I shall miss the light, And friends will miss me they say He answered, "Choose tonight, »If I am to miss you or they." I pleaded for time to be given: He said, "Is it hard to decide? It will not seem hard in Heaven To have followed the steps of your guide." I cast one look on the field, Then set my face to the town: He said, "My child, do you yield? Will you leave the flowers for a Crown?" Then into his hand went mine, And into my heart came He, And I walked in a light, divine The path Chat I feared to see. v.y: —George Macdanold. Newect Things In Millinery. Unleqs your hat is very little it must very big. And "if it is very big, it nr.ifsl: be a "scoop"—a regular floor scoop of a hat, scooping up sharply in tho front and flaring up again in the back and drooping softly down over one eye. The new "scoops" are as broad trimmed as the "merry widows" of happy memory and they are quiet as picturesque, and like the "merry wid ows" they are invariably of black vel vet or black satin. One of the new models recently fashioned by a milliner member of the Fashion League of 'America was one of the smartest yet shown. It was made of heavy black satin and was wreathed in flowers of dull gold and silver. One thing about the "scoop" style of hat that appeals to the canny maid is that old picture hats that have outlived their day of stylishness may be easily bent and "scooped" into this very latest model in hats. Mrs. Pi N. Dunham of Avenue A who is in the Bismarck hosnital un dergoing treatment for a broken limb, is getting along nicely.

At. the meeting or the railrnr.il com mission yesterday the rer|iii::i oi! tho people of.. Trenton to have Great Northern train No. I? stop on flag at that place was postponed until the spring meeting of the board at Minot owing to the reluctance of the com mission to increase the speed of this train, which was already great, dur ing the winter months. In the complaint of one Greer at Rugby against, a charge of $2.50 for a change in telephone caused by his second removal within one year, the commission ordered the Northern Telephone company to connect up this man's 'phone and the matter of the charge would be decided at a hearing later. Tiie application by J. H. Rosen for a lower rate on State shipments of Western coal was given considera tion. Correspondence withi: the Nor thern Pacific and Soo lines develops ».uuo a willingness by those companies to and it is expected a satisfactory rate will be secured for shipments of this kind from Wyoming and Montana points to points within the State. Attorney B. A. Dickinson of Ryder appeared before the commission in the interest of the Queen City Tele phon company in a controversy with the Fort Bertliold Telephone Co. of Makoti, and reported the two com panies had not been able to meet in agreement as had been hoped, so the commission will go to Makoti the lat ter part of the month and try' to effect a settlement of the issues. In hMemattlier of the bestin the In the matter of the differences be tween the Farmers & Merchants Tel restore communication, leaving the Northern Telephone company of Mi not over routing messages and con nections, the commission decided in favor of the line originating the bus iness, in other words in favor of the Northern company. This latter com pany has a line from Minot to Portal and from there to Columbus and lias been in the habit of routing messages for points west and east over this line through the Colubus exchange, which is owned by the Farmers line. This latter company has a line be tween Columbus and Flaxton and the beginning of the trouble arose over the demand of the Farmers company that business to points on its line and beyond be sent by the Northern company via the Farmers company so that it could get its pro-rata share of the business. This would have in creased the rate and the Northern company refused to so route its mes sages, and as a result the Farmers line refused to connect with the Nor thern at Columbus. All traffic west of Portal or Flaxton was thus tied up, except that. Originating on the1 Farmers line, and complaint was made by a citizen of Max that he had lost money by failure of getting through a telephone message. The railroad commission promptly ordered both tele phone compa le t.o renlore communication, lateing the matter of rates and routing to later hearing, which h&ririg 'was "held at Minot recently. While tho decision is in favor of the^Northern company it is understood both companies will son get together in a working agree ment with a fair fate, .-to both com panies. There w^fe many important side issues in the decision of this case* .the! most ttfejtortant being the right of a telephone company to route its messages the' way it wishes, provided rates and time are egpal to some other routing.

J, ROBERTSONS CAREER IS HISW OF STAGE Famous English Actor Has Been on the Stage for Over Forty Years. Probably not until it. is all over— not until the last curtain has. come down and the last speech has been made—shall we realize to the full all that is meant by the coming farewell of Sir Johnston Forbes-Robertson at the Auditorium, Monday night. It is not as if Forbes-Robertson" represented some half-forgotten re putation of long ago. Somhow or other, it is still difficult not to think ol' him, despite his 62 years, as a young man. According to dates, of course, Forbes-Robertson has been on the stage 40 years, but he might have far more reason to regard his so journ with the Bancrofts at the old Prince of Wales Theatre in London as the starting point of his career. He came to the London Lyceum com paratively late and then only as a "guest"- member of Henry Irving's company, engaged for special roles. His name and fame were already es tablished both in London and the provinces. At least eight years before his Ly ceum days Forbes-Robertson had been helping in bis own way to bring the stage in touch with the art movement on which the Lyceum was nurtured, and in the atmosphere of which as a Uoyal Academy student and son of a well-known art critic, he had been steeped from his childhood. It was at the age of 21 that he had first played with that great actress who was the high priestess of all that makes for beauty and poetry in the theatre—Ellei] Terry. After his de but as Chastelard with Mrs. Rousby in "Mary Stuart," he joined a tour ing company organized by Charles Iteade, the novelist, to present his comedy, "The Wandering Heir," in which lOllen Terry was the star. The career of Forbes-Robert son is I lie. history of the Fnglish stag of the past generation. lie has appeared with all the notable players of his lime and his own productions stand out as some of the most noteworthy efforts of the modern theatre. ABE AND MAWRUSS E THE LATEST "Potash and .Perlmutter" .the "Firm That Made the Laugh Famous,'' Here Tomorrow. "Potash and Perlmutter," the firm that made the laugh famous on two continents, will return to the Audi torium for an engagement Saturday night. With their latest designs in cloaks, suits and laughs, "Abe" and Maw russ" are the lovable partners about The Father of Pu re Foods D-PRICE'S MACARONI T&J.. whom Montague Glass wrote such delightful stories in the Saturday Evening Post. v5S Suffered for Years The firm name is "Potash and Perl mutter." They liave a designer named Ruth Goldman who has "a head like Andrew Carnegie and a shape like Lillian Russell" they have a ras FOUR— Daily —Barnard. eh, cally lawyer named Feldman, and, incidentally, they have hearts of gold. The story of "Potash and Perlniut t.er" revolves about the efforts of the two partners to save thJr new book keeper, Boris Andrieff, from the clutches of the Russian government. They really know little about Boris, except that "as a bookkeeper he is a great musician," and they quarrel in cesantly about him, but when there is danger that the young man is to be sent back to Russia, and perhaps a Siberian prison ,they risk their ev ery cent to save him. For a time it looks as though the partners may have to lose everything through their Quixotic ideas, and Potash is going to lose, besides, desirable son-in-law when everything turns out happily. Cupid has been busy, too, with "Maw russ," and the ending is doubly hap py. There are tears as well as There are many people who will be interested in the exper ience of Mrs. Julia Byard, Port Benton, Mont. She writes: "I suffered for years with gail-siones. A friend wrote me -i about Fruitola and Traxo. I started taking it and am com pletely cured now and feel better than I have felt for twenty years." Mrs. Byard's testimony is similar to that of many who have given this remedy a chance to help them. Fruitola is a powerful lubricant for the intestinal organs, softening the hardened parti cles that cause so much suffering and expelling the congested waste in an easy, natural way. A single dose Is usually sufficient to clearly indicate its efficacy. Traxo is a splendid tonic- alter native that acts on the liver and kidneys, stimulates the flow of gastric juices to aid digestion, and removes bile from the general circulation. Fruitola and Traxo are prepared in the Plnus laboratories at Monticello, III., and arrangements have been made to supply them through representative druggists. In Bismarck they can be obtained at Cowan's Drug Store. Disease germs are on every hand. They are in the very air we breathe. A system "run down" is a prey for them. One must have vital force to withstand them. Vital force depends on digestion—on whether or not food nourishes—on the quality of blood, coursing through the body. DR.

CHANGE DATE OF MINOT'S FAIR. Minot, N. D„ Jan. 6.—The date of the Minot mid-winter fair has been changed from that previously- an nounced and the event will be held from February 7 to 13 inclusive in stead of the week following. The change is made for the purpose of making the time between that event and the equity meeting longer. While the dates for the latter event have not yet been fixed, they have been tentatively agreed upon as the last week of February. It is the purpose of the city to give special attention to that gathering of farmers and it was evident that the two events com ing so near together would divide tho efforts of the public and Jp fi, way handicap both.
