People Know a Good Thing When they See It.
After a good many years experience with various
makes of ranges and heaters we finally came to
the ROYAL line, made by Bergstrom Bros
Neenah, Wis. and it "tilled the bill" so well that
during the past twelve years we have handled it
EXCLUSIVELY.
The ROYAL Line
All the Name Implies
It is built on an entirely different principle from other ranges.
It can be run on poor grade coal, costing at least TWO
TH [RDS LESS than coal used in other ranges.
It burns up all the smoke, soot and gas, thus overcoming
one of the greatest objections to a coal range, in addition to
making the fuel last considerablyly longer.
It is provided with a CONTROLLER DAMPER which en
ables you to control the heat as you desire. controling the
heat this damper naturally controls the coal and it positively
saves ONE-THIRD of the fuel.
It is equipped with an oven thermometer and thermometer
guide, which enables the user to determine at all times the
exact length of time necessary for baking any kind of food and
the temperature required.
Other features are:
Very heavy lire-back, made in three pieces will
never wear out.
Oven bottom made of extra heavy steel, guaran
teed to stay Hat and smooth for twenty years,
Insulation of asbestos, wherever it is necess
ary, to hold the heat in. There are no corners
made into joints. One piece of steel runs around
the entire bod}r of the stove. This means a better
looking stove, and also an air tight stove, which
again means an oven that will work right all the
time.
Remember the Royal Line of HEATERS. Now is the time to
get one. Winter will soon be here, but equipped with a
Royal, you will be comfortable and your fuel
bills will be comparatively small.

The New Electric Range.
The greatest development in the
electric field during the past year
has been along the lines of heating
and cooking by electricity. The
electric kitchen is now an assured
fact, and they have been in active
daily use long enough to prove
their worth and economy.
The very latest design of electric
stove is made of sheet steel, in
shape not unlike the modern gas
stoves familiar to all. The top of
this new electric stove is equipped
with three stoves or grids, two 1500
watt lids capable of great heat and
a smaller grid consuming 500 watts
of lesser cooking. There is also
room on the top, and suitable con
nections, for the coffee percolator
and ceieal cooker. Beneath the
top is located an ample space for
plate warming and to keep food al
ready cooked warm and ready for
serving. Beneath the plate warm
er is a large oven equipped with a
horizontal broiler in the top. The
broiler heats to a red glow in a few
seconds, searing the meat instantly
and thereby preserving juices. The
oven is capable of several degrees
of heat at the will of the operator.
The new range takes up but little

kitchen space and the simple throw
ing of a switch makes any part of
it ready for cooking. Most of the
switches are provided for three de
grees of heat. While this new
electric heating range, the very la
test development in electric heat
ing, can be operated fully as cheap
as gas or coal, it has the added vir
tue of being absolutely safe, free
from dirt and obnoxious gases, and
always under instantaneous control.

"The Wolf" at the Opera House
The phonograph plays a big part
in "The Wolf," which comes to the
Opera House, Friday evening, No.
11. In the third act it is necess
ary that the howling of the wolves
shall be heard in order to carry out
the superstition of the Canadian
forest, that when wolves howl in
a pack in Indian Summer it means
death for some man before the
moon shall rise and set again. The
wolves that howl in this act foretell
the death of William MacDonald,
the villainous engineer, which oc
curs in a duel on a dark stage, so
dark that you can't tell which man
is getting the worst of it. Then
comes a fall, a deadly silence. One
is killed—but which—the engineer
or the French-Canadian? A
match is struck and you see—what
you see. It 'a the big scene of the
play.
Start Suit for $5150 Damages.
John L. Cale, father of Miss
Goldie Cale, who was murdered by
John McGuire at his home in Heg
bert in the western part of Swift
County on the 19th of last May, has
commenced proceedings against the
Estate of John McQuire for thebe
sum of $5150, claimed as damages
for the loss of his daughter, who
was the main support of himself
and invalid wife and three helpless
minor children.
It will be remembered that John
McGuire committed suicide shortly
after his rash act, leaving an estate
worth $25000, and it would seem on
ly simple justice that the family
should be allowed some compensa
tion for their great loss.

Despite the opposition of my parents
and certain head shakings on the part
of intimate friends. I persisted in my
engagement to Edward Illsley. There
was something about him beyond
these warnings that made me uncom
fortable. Be would make an engage
ment to be with me during an evening,
break it and give no satisfactory ex
planation. After he bad done this
several times 1 resolved the next time,
to corner him by forcing him to tell
me where be had been. When that
next time came round be claimed that
between the hours of 8 and 11 he had
been at borne. Without his knowledge
1 asked his sister as to his where
abouts on the evening in question, and
she told me that be had not been at
home, but said he bad been with me.
This convinced me that be was de
ceiving me. and I told him he must
either make a clean breast of the mat
ter or I would break our engagement
He took a solemn oath that he never
left his home between 6 o'clock during
the evening he was supposed to be
with me and 9 o'clock the next morn
ing. When I asked how that could be
he told me tbat to tell would involve
others whose acts be bad no right to
divulge.
Curiosity now became my dominant
motive. I would have broken with my
fiance had it not been that I believed
I could get his secret by remaining en
gaged to him, whereas if I sent him
away 1 would never know it. I pre
tended to be very much hurt at his
want of confidence in me, and he
seemed equally put out that I did not
feel assured his statement was true
and because I should endeavor to
force him to reveal a secret which in
volved others.
The result of a half hour's probing
gave me the impression that he was
connected with several persons of both
sexes who were united by some secret
bond, but that this bond was of any
especial importance did not appear. It
did not in any way explain how Ed
ward could have been in the house for
three hours one evening when he was
supposed to be visiting me. And what
had the events of these three hours to
do with the persons whose secrets he
would betray by making an explana
tion?
After a long period of questioning
and waiting, questioning again and
waiting again, I gave up trying to get
the secret. I. however, applied one
test before taking final action. I asked
to be admitted to this coterie of which
Edward was supposed to be a mem
ber. He said that I must be elected
and the number was complete. By
this time I knew that I should get no
satisfaction, and, since I was not mind
ed to marry a man who had a secret
from me. I broke the engagement.
All this was a few months before the
great earthquake when our city was
destroyed. Among those who did not
turn up after that dreadful calamity
was my former fiance. His house was
one, that fell at the first shock, and
only one member of the family had
had time to escape. This person said
that Edward Illsley was not in the
house at the time of the quake. When
the debris was removed every body
was found except his. This indicated
that he had probably been killed else
where. But, though his friends kept
track of all the bodies taken out. his
was never found—at least not identi
fied.
Very naturally I. connected his mys
terious disappearance with the reasons
for which I bad broken my engage
ment. If 1 had been puzzled before I
was more puzzled now. A new devel
opment .was that one of Edward's
most intimate friends was among the
missing, and his body was not found.
There were other persons not ac
counted for. but the man mentioned
was the only one I happened to know
as one of his friends. This deepened
the mystery for me, though for me
alone, for I never revealed what Ed
ward had told me, or, rather, what he
had not told me.
One morning I took up a newspaper
and saw an explanation of the mystery
was haunting me so persistently
that I was beginning to break down
under it. The paper contained an an
nouncement that the lot on which I
knew had stood the Illsley house bad
been purchased and the foundations
taken out to make way for new ones.
A space had been walled up, evidently
by amateur masons, and covered with
an arched brick roof, the entrance to
which was an iron door. The door be
ing forced, its latch was found to have
been wedged by the earthquake so
that it could not be opened. There had
been entrance from without through a
cellar door.
Inside this inclosure, which was fur
nished, were found five skeletons—three
men and two women. On a table lay
a note addressed "To Those Who Shall
Our Bodies," stating that they
were pinned in by what they supposed
to be an earthquake and were starving
to death. The only information as to
the cause of their being there were the
words. "Our secret dies with us."
I tiave alluded to this as an explana
tion. Tt was an explanation that threw
me into afar greater state of curiosity
than'before. I am consumed day and
night with a desire to know what
could have been the object of this se
cret coterie.
