Here, giving a reason for laughter, Shakes peare writes four short words. In ad dition, we may easily find many others. Thus, commencing with t, the first letter of the sentence, we have the and they with h, w« have he and hey and with 1, we find la and laugh. Following the same plan to the end, that is, taking each letter in turn and looking for con cealed words, we find thirteen in all the, they, he, hey, la, laugh, aught, ha hat, at, twin, win and in,—of which only four were in the mind of Othello. This illustration shows the plan pur sued in the Word Hunting Contests, of which one is given below. Boles for Contest. 1. No person over eighteen years of age can enter the contest. 2. Every word must be written plain ly and legibly, without blots or inter lineations. _. 3. Only orthodox spelling of the rec ognized style will be considered, "sim plified" spelling not being allowed in such contest. Thus, exprest can not be used for expressed. (Or. if preferred, only "simplified" spelling will be allow eu 4. Each contestant, in his report, must write out every word commenc ing with the first letter, taking first the shortest word, then giving the word next formed by adding one or more letters, and so on until all words com mencing with the first letter are writ ten down in order. In the same way, he must write out the words, if any, commencing with the second letter and this must be continued to the end, the contestant taking each letter of the sentence in its turn and writing down each word commencing with that let ter, writing first the shortest and going step by step to the longest. 5. Each original word must be writ ten in its turn and place. 6. The words or combinations of let ters, ar, ay, ays, ce, ef, eh, el, em, en, es, ge, ya, and yo, are not to be consid ered or reported. 7. Every other accidental word hav ing two or more letters must be written in us turn and place. 8. No report shall contain any pro per noun that does not appear as a proper noun, or as part of a proper noun, in the original sentence. Thus, if the words "George's hat" were in a sentence, the contestant would report "George" and "George's" if the word "demijohn" were given, he could not report "John" as an accidental word if the word "rosemary" were given he could not report "Mary" as an acciden tal word. Bad Fair Weather. The fair management did not draw a prize package when it selected dates for the Lac qui Parle county fair. Tuesday was to have been the real opening day. Under favorable conditions hundreds of people would have been in attendance. But the rain Monday night shattered all hopes. And when J. F. Rosenwald awoke Wednesday morning and saw the ground covered with snow—well, he felt worse than when that other snowstorm, a week ago, buried his hopes of becoming railroad and ware house commissioner, deep and cold. The frost was on the prize pumpkin this year, and the Jersey prize win ners looked forlorn even with their blue ribbons. The few humans who had braved the arctic blasts, weary of plodding through gumbo streets, clustered around restaurant-counters and sipped coffee, ignoring the feats of the aviator outside, who was risk- Building Material Let us figure on your bill.

Mean while, the fair management was "up in the air" also, wandering where to find the thousand plunks wherewith to pay the intrepid bird-man. It was tough luck, all around. There is no game that is harder than that of beating the Weather Man at County Fairs. Mr. W. M. nearly al ways goes off with the jack-pot. But what are county fairs for any way, but to test the perseverance of a few hard-working, public-spirited men?

Of the 1,500 soldiers of the Hel singe regiment, 170 asked for permis sion to leave the army and go to the harvest fields, and in every instance the request was granted. The apple, pear and plum crops ar very poor. The figures given are not based on the percentage system, but the average seems to be only about one-half of an ordinary crop. Algot Sandberg, the author, did not spend much time in his hammock last summer, and the result is six dra matic works, three of them transla tions and the rest original. V. J. Ahlbin, the Swedish represen tative at the bathing congress recently held at Scheveningen, reported that Sweden ranks among the foremost na tions of the world with regard to the facilities for bathing. Only in certain respects does the United States excel Sweden in this respect, and all other nations are considerably behind the two mentioned. A genuine African grasshopper waa caught at Gafle. This animal is very rare, and only a few samples of them were seen in Sweden last summer. They are about three inches long and are direct descendants of the grass hoppers that ravaged Egypt thousands of years ago. It is considered very strange that they should get as far north as Sweden. The most reason able explanation is that they were carried by a swift storm from Hun gary, where they did much damage last summer. Horse scared to death. As the chauffeur of an automobile passing along the road near Odeshog was go ing to meet a farmer whose horse waa evidently afraid of the machine he stopped in order to give the farmer a chance to take the necessary precau tions. The farmer unhitched his horse and took him away from the road. But as the auto was passing the place the horse again was so scared that he sank down and actually died on the spot. The horse was 18 years old, and his owner had paid $57 for him a few days previously. The church of the parish of Lek vattret, Varmland, has attracted na tion-wide attention. The local au thorities went to work to have the interior of the church building paint ed with as little fuss as possible. But the matter was reported to the na tional government, and in the course of time an order came from the king himself that the work had to be stopped at once. White paint had been used. Now the work must be done over again, because the national government has decided that the walls shall be painted red. Principal Happening* of the Week in the Scandinavian Countries. Sweden now keeps one missionary in heathen lands for every 13,000 of the population of Sweden. If all the native workers at the different for eign missions of Sweden are counted the number will be one for every 3, 600 persons living in Sweden, The annual budget of the missions is $343, 000. During the year 1911 the Swed ish missions sold 81,000 copies of the Bible and 222,000 tracts were given away. Seven higher institutions of learning and 527 other schools were in operation, the former having an at tendance of 185, the latter 14,678. There were also ten industrial schools that had an attendance of about 400. Over 1,000 children were cared for in 16 orphans' asylums, the number of patients treated at the 17 hospitals was 8,000, and 78,000 cases were treat ed at 34 clinics. "Julstamning," a Christmas publica tion issued at Gothenburg, is a fine il lustration of the ability of Sweden to turn out periodical literature of the highest grade. Julstamning is only seven years old, but next Christmas it will be issued in 300,000 copies. The artistic quality of the illustrations may be inferred from the one fact that 76 different impressions will be made. The publishers' paper mill will be kept busy for three months to produce the necessary paper, and the entire edition will require 33 ordinary Swedish freight cars for transporta tion. The popularity of the publica tion is so great that in the past every issue has been sold out before Christ mas. Anders Zorn, Sweden's fore most artist, has contributed no less than 30 pictures for the next issue. Sven Abrahamson of Litstarp, Haks vik, completed his one hundredth year the other day. Centenarians like Sven are scarce. His mental capacities are in good condition. He can hear his pastor's sermon in church. He is in the habit of telling what his minis ter said to him when he was prepar ing himself for confirmation, in 1828, and his enlistment in the army, in 1835, he remembers as distinctly as though it happened yesterday. From Jan. 1 to the close of August 7,283 persons emigrated from Sweden, as compared with 9,532 for the cor responding period last year. The gunboat, which is to be built for the $4,000,000 raised by private subscription, needs a special dock at the naval station in Stockholm, and the riksdag will be asked for an ap propriation of $3,000,000 for this pur pose. DENMARK. While drhing with his sons recent ly, the king ran down a cyclist with his carriage. Although the accident WILLMAR TRIBUNE, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 2,1912. was aue entirely to the carelessness of the bicycle rider, the king stopped the carriage and went to the assist ance of the young man, whose ma chine was smashed. His majesty, who is very fond of cycling and who re pairs his own machine, saw that he could put the broken bicycle in run ning order again. The young man seemed helpless and stood looking on while the king worked for ten min utes repairing the damaged machine. When the king had finished the work the rider asked him for his card, prom ising to patronize him whenever his machine needed repairs. As the rider stood with wide open mouth looking at the king's name engraved on the card, the royal party drove away. Queen Alexandra has gone to Scan dinavia disappointed at the failure of one of her pet projects. The queen mother had set her heart upon a mar riage between her favorite nephew, Prince George of Greece, and her granddaughter, the young duchess of Fife. The young people met once or twice, but as the Fifes are in deep mourning and Prince George was be ing feted everywhere by ambitious hostesses, there was little opportunity for quiet intercourse. The young duchess was, however, fully conscious of the arrangements that were being made for her and took no pains to conceal her dislike of them. In this she was supported by her mother, the princess royal, who, being of a very retiring disposition herself, fully sym pathizes with her daughter's wish to marry outside the circle of foreign royalties. President McVey of the University of North Dakota summed up the im pressions which he received while traveling in Denmark: "In Denmark I had the opportunity to get in touch with the co-operative movement. It is indeed a wonderfu.1 little land that has done marvels in its efforts to re cover from the disasters of war. The co-operative movement has made Den mark. Many visitors are going to that country on the supposition that they have discovered the key to a great and successful agricultural era, and all that need be done is for us to carry it bodily to the United States and establish it over here. But all that can be done is to take certain suggestions of a helpful character and adapt them to our own system. Fun damentally, the co-operative system is successful in Denmark because it has been financed by the banks and helped by a friendly government." NORWAY. The largest taxpayer in Stavanger Is the Bjelland Canning company, which is assessed for $400,000 on the property and on an income of $90,000. The city taxes of the company exceed $15,000. The importance of the proposed wireless connections between Norway and New York would seem to justify a somewhat detailed account of the plan. The Marconi company negoti ated with the governments of all the Scandinavian countries. But Norway was chosen for the site of the station at the eastern terminus on account of its favorable geographical position. If the station had been built in Sweden or Denmark the messages would have crossed England, which would have made wiring difficult. From Norway, on the other hand, messages can be sent exclusively across water, the shortest line between Norway and New York passing north of Scotland. The stations to be built at New York and in Norway will be by far the larg est and' most powerful of their kind in the world. The distance between the two stations will be 3,750 English miles. The distance between the pres ent stations in Canada is only half as great. The regular rate will be 25 cents a word, while the present cable rate is 35 cents. The rate for press messages will be 12% cents a word. It is estimated that the Norwegian station will cost about $550,000, and will be the property of the Norwegian government, while the Marconi com pany is to be the owner of the Amer ican station. The Norwegian govern ment is to put up the foundation and the buildings, but the technical equip ment will be installed by the company. A great number of legacies of $2,700 or more have been established in the course of the past few weeks in dif ferent parts of the country. The amounts of the gifts are not large from an American point of view, but they are large enough to do much good, besides showing the good-will of the donors. Carl Lumholtz, the noted Norwegian explorer, is about to go on an expedi tion into the interior of New Guinea, a wild territory Inhabited by canni bals. Until 1850 the iBland was practi cally unexplored and parts of it are yet shadowed in mystery. Saved By Bis Wife. She's a wise woman who knows just what to do when her husband's life is in danger, but Mrs. R. J. Flint, Braintree, Vt., is of that kind. "She insisted on my using Dr. King's New Discovery," writes Mr. J?., "for a dreadful cough, when I was so weak my friends all thought I had only a short time to live, and it com pletely cured me." A quick cure for coughs and colds, it is the most safe and reliable medicine for many throat and lung troubles—grip, bronchitis, croup, whooping cough, quinsy, tonsilitis, hem orrhages.

NEWS FROM FATHERLAND A Brief Resume of the Most Im portant Happenings In the German Emplro. A German name has made an in vasion of the hallowed highlands ot Scotland by Copper King Guggenheim of New York, who paid a trifle ol $5,000 for a three weeks'* use of the castle of the House of Fair. Thingi were run on such a lavish and mag nificent scale that the natives almost lost their breath. It is said that those three weeks sufficed to establish a de facto "Clan Guggenheim" In th« dignified old neighborhood. At a students' supper at Gottingen, one of the students insisted that France was not the most dangerous enemy of the fatherland, and, raising his glass, he drank to the prosperity of the French nation. His action was denounced as unpatriotic and the sher iff's court fined him 20 marks on the ground that in drinking to France he had thrown a slight on the toast of the kaiser proposed by his comrades. The case is to be taken to the court of appeals. Two German military officers were killed while flying near Freiburg, Sax. ony. The machine, which was of the monoplane type, was being piloted by Lieutenant Berger, who was carrying Lieutenant Junghans as a passenger, in flight from Chemnitz to Berlin. When passing over this city, the ma chine suddenly plunged from a high elevation to the ground. The airmen were instantly killed and the mono plane was smashed to bits..The cause of the accident is not explained. There is no such thing as a fly pest in Bohemia. In most of the dining rooms, during the course of a meal, perhaps three or four flies appear dur ing the season. In restaurants there are very few flies. Screen doors to keep out flies and other insects are unknown. The buildings are all con structed of brick, stone or concrete. The docks along the river front are of granite. The pavements and sidewalks are made of granite blocks. There are no wooden sidewalks, stairways or buildings. Decayed vegetable or animal matter is not openly exposed to flies, and the streets are frequently cleaned during each day. There are no open drains in the city to attract and breed flies. The meat famine is becoming more and more serious in the large cities of Germany. The authorities of the different sections of Greater Berlin held a conference at which the matter was discussed at length. All the speakers agreed that something had to be done to relieve the distress, and a resolution was passed by a unani mous vote calling upon the national government to facilitate to the great est possible extent the importation of frozen meat from abroad. The con sumption of sea fish has increased im mensely during the last few years, but the conference was of the opinion that still greater quantities of this article can be used to advantage if the importation of fish and fish prod ucts can be accomplished with greater ease than at present. While the kaiserin was recently at her castle at Urville, near Metz, she invited the village schoolgirls to the castle. When they arrived she said to one of them: "Tell me your wish and I promise to fulfill it." To this the little one replied: "I wish it would be granted us to learn French in our school." The kaiserin was taken back by this request, which touched a great political question, which is always to the front in Elsass Lothringen, namely, the Germaniza tion of the schools and the suppres sion of French influences. But, hav ing given her promise, her majesty said: "Your wish shall be granted." The little girl bowed and said, "Thank you, Frau Wilhelm." The next day the first French lesson was given in the Urville school since the annexa tion of Elsass-Lothringen. These les sons will be repeated three times a week hereafter. It often seems as though political liberty came rather early to Hungary. Just look at the following cable from Budapest: Political opponents as saulted Count Tisza, president of the lower house of the Hungarian parlia ment, and the minister of commerce when they arrived at the chamber. They were insulted, slapped and final ly knocked down before the police succeeded in rescuing them. On the chamber floor the wildest scenes were enacted. Members who favor univer sal suffrage were only allowed to en ter accompanied by policemen under orders to drag them out again the mo ment they assumed the aggressive. Two hundred police reserves were on duty outside to reinforce the mem bers' escort in case of necessity. De spite these precautions, there was almost continual fighting. Eighty per sons are under arrest for par ticipation in riots. Two hundred or three hundred are suffering from injuries sustained in the police charges. Twenty-four of them are seriously hurt and there may be deaths among them. President F. L. McVey of the state university of North Dakota expressed himself as follows after a visit to Germany: "In Germany I found an amazing materialism overtaking and pushing aside the early views of Ger man greatness. Germany in her in dustrialism is more like the United States everywhere are factories, long freight trains ply over her railroads, and her rivers carry a teeming com merce. Germany is prosperous, and with this prosperity has appeared a new German type of citizen that is to be seen everywhere as a fellow-trav eler in Europe." There la more Catarrh In this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was aupposed to be incurable.
