FORTUNES OF TIME.
(By Chas. Olive, Willmar.)
Summer and autumn bleak,
Winter and flowery spring,
Sunshine and storm and calm—
Changes that time doth bring.
Joy that is nectar-sweet,
Love which is bliss to know,
Kindling on pallid cheek
Always a sunny glow.
that rudely tear
Bosoms of young and old,
Changing their earthly life
Into a winter cold.
Poverty and distress,
Dreams that are fading fast,
Longings and fears and hope,
And heavenly peace at last.
These are the things we find,
Aye, as through life we go
None meet with only joy,
None only sorrow know.
The tale of the John Johnson stock
is still going on. Some fine bargains
in shoes for boys at 48c, a lot for girls
at 65c and some for infants at 25c.
A garage can be built TOO cheap.
It's well to figure on Winter temperature, and low
ones at that, when planning yours, for it's then you will
want yours to be weather proof.
In other words, don't build ONLY for Spring and
summer use.
Let me show you the different ways in whiten garages
are being built Let me show you the different kinds of
material that are being used.
I have all the different kinds of lumber—a very se
lect stock of each.
Glad to help you build yours right at the lowest
cost

Look Mother! If tongue is coated,
cleanse little bowels with "Cali

Mothers can rest easy after giving
"California Syrup of Figs," because in
a few hours all the clogged-up waste,
sour bile and fermenting food gently
moves out of the bowels, and you have
ft well, playful child again.
Sick children needn't be coaxed to
take this harmless "fruit laxative."
Millions of mothers keep it handy be
cause they know its action on the
stomach, liver and bowels is prompt
and sure.

contains directions for babies, children
of all ages and for grown-ups.
