Oscar Thompson one of the New Gottland boys who went to Sweden for his health last spring writes that he is feeling much better and has gained in flesh considerably. He says Sweden is a good country because the women do all the hard work. Mr.

Thompson and a friend are batching in a little log cabin and says that the boys and girls call at their little home to have an American good time. Mr. Thompson will not return to Kansas until after the holidays as he wishes to stay and see how Christmas is celebrated in the fatherland. Miss Elsie Clark born of Anglo parents among the wild Kaffirs and reared and educated in South Africa; Miss Clark is a charming young lady with a Colonial style of speech that is fascinating. As a pianist and linguist she has been of invaluable service to Mr.

Balmer, whilst as a speaker there is not her superior on the platform today for graphic description and graceful eloquence. Miss Clark tells of the social life of the Boers, stories of 0om Paul and of Boer customs. Dressed as a Red Kaffir woman--the tribe amongst which she was born--her descriptions of barbaric life are of absorbing interest. She will be in the chapel Dec. 7th it will pay you to hear her.

The Great Kaffir Boy Choir witn Mr. Balmer have, by their magnificent entertainment, captured the most cultured cities of Great Britain and the States. Each member of the choir represents some great South African Tribe. The Basutos, whose country stretches right along the Orange Free State boundry, line, are represented, as also is the great tribe of Zulus. whose chief, Cetewayo, prophesied that England would rue the day she helped the Boers.

Kaffir, who as "runners" have been of great service to both Boer and Briton, are here shown, as also are the Bushmen, the lowest people of the continent. Hear them in the chapel December 7th. Admission 35 and 50 cents. John N. Swenson of this city, now city attorney of Kansas making a name for himself.

There are a lot of criminals who come before the police court in K. C. and are fined so much. The criminal then appeals to a higher court, some good man goes his bond, and generally the case is dropped thus evading punishment Attorney Swenson has dug out from the recesses of the attorneys office about 100 such cases against which he has started prosecution. There are still 400 such cases and Mr.

Swenson says he will prosecute everyone of them. This is the first time in the history of Kansas City that these cases have been prosecuted and it has been done by a Bethanyite and a Lindsborg boy. John A. Nordmark returned Saturday from a visit to the World's fair and other points in the East, where he attended to important business. Among other things Mr.

Nordmark secured the representation of one of the largest money loaning companies in the country. Mr. Nordmark has been making farm loans in this community for the four years and understands the business fully. The money he has secured is the cheapest that has ever been brought to this section of country and the new firm of Nord mark Anderson intend to give the farmers the benefit of it. A great deal of credit is due this firm for securing a cheap rate of interest for this section of Kansas.

And the farmers will appreciate and take advantage of it. Mr. J. H. Balmer the originator and trainer of the Kaffir Boy Choir, first went to Africa in 1882.

Since that time he has taken the greatest interest in the African and his Continent. For the past eleven years without cessation, Mr. Balmer has been a highly successful instructor. At the Royal Academy of Music, London, England, he gained his knowledge of singing and it is in this branch he has been especially suecessful. In "Africa in Song and Story" the results of much travel, long experience and great success are demonstrated.

When in Britain Mr. Palmer had the honor of introducing a band of Africans to the late Queen Victoria, who expressed surprise and delight at the ability they displayed. In America successes has been everywhere achieved. He will be in the chapel Dec. 7 with his choir.

The Musin Concert Company gave a concert in the chapel last Friday evening that was appreciated by every music lover. The numbers given were, possibly, not as heavy as what we would liked to have heard here, but what they did showed musicianship. It is not often that one hears a company that is as good as this one. Every number was heartily encored and the performers were very generous. The company was entertained by Prof.

and Mrs. Lindberg after the concert. Mr. Musin and Professor Freidman are old friends and have concerted together through Europe. Sentenced for Life.

Letter to Mr. Joha Stromquist, Fremont, Kas. Dear Sir: The way to reckon the cost of paint is to put both costs together: the cost of the paint and the cost of putting it on. It would save this country hundreds of millions of dollars a year; it would save you alone (if you happen to be a victim) several dollars a year. See how it works.

It costs as much to put-on one paint as another, don't it? Yes, if you use the same number of gallons. Well, don't No, you'll use twice as mauy gallons of adulterated paint as of Devoe; and you've got to pay twice as much for putting it on. Mr Avery, Delhi, has two houses alike and in the same condition. Painted one house with Devoe: 6 lons. Painted the other house with a paint that was half adulteration: gallons.

Same painter, Geo Gilbert. did both jobs. One cost $27; the other $54. Better go by the name. Yours truly DEVOE Co New York and Chicago P.

Of course we know that's practically all some fellows do when called to a job. But that's NOT OUR WAY We like to get at the root of the trouble when we tackle a job.

When we have found it, we go to work to fix it so it will stay fixed. Quite different from your idea of the usual plumber, isn't it? We are different in other ways, too. One of them is the smallsized bills we make out for our work. John A. Holmberg Lindsborg, Kansas.
