ARMLEss, BUT NOT HARMLESS
The Morgan Argonaut says. Mr., j.
r Hollis, oil Duffau, Erath county,
Texas, lost both arms several years
ago in a molasses mill. There is a
stub protruding from each shoulder
about eight inches 10 length. By
placing pen between bis right stub
ard chin he can write better than
the average business man. He can
handle a pistol in lively way, and
needs no assistance in putting on or
off bis clothes. To suit his conven>
fence he wears high top boots,so that
he can lean over and catch the
straps between bis teeth. He thus
pulls bis boots 90 without any visible
exertion. He says he can do any
thing that an ordinary man can,
and, Judging from what we saw him
accomplish, we do not doubt it.

In the Pilot House

Eyes. sir; this kind of work obliges a man
to keep sober as judge. OF all men in the
world, steamboat pilots and railroad engi-
neers should let liquor alone. For on their
Gle arness of sight and GOODNESS of head de-
ponds the safety of life and property
Keeping his hand on the wheel as he said
Chicago. added: "Of course, some of 'em
drink; but the sober ones have the best posi-
lions and the best pay. Yes, the work and
exposure sometimes tells ON US; but for my
part, find Parker's Tonic to be all the i'm
vigorant I need. I've got bottle aboard
here now; never go on trip without 1t.
When I haven't any appetite, or am in any
drinking men would use the Tonic, it would
help them to break OF. mo, that isn't light
house: it's star, low down near the water.l
AS was saying, the Tonic Is new life bottled
up. You see that ag-sta6? Well, with q
bottle of Parker's Tonic in the locker can
keep malaria az far from me as that, all the
time. My wife has used it for three years for
ant, when she's tired out from overwork: She
says the Tonic is q daisy: Goodbye! Don't
break your neck going below.
This preparation. which has been known as
Parkers Ginger Tonic, will hereafter be adj
vertised and sold simply under the name of
Parker's Tonic. As unprincipled dealers are
constantly deceiving their customers BY SUBJ
shutting inferior articles under the name OF
ginger. and as ginger ts really an unlmPortant
Ingredient, we drop the misleading word.
There Is no change. however, In the prepa.
ration itself, and all bottles remaining IN the
hands of dealers, wrapped under the name OF
Parker's Ginger Tonic, contain the genuine
medicine II the fac simile signature 10 at the
bottom Of the outside wrapper.

The September term of Court for

The September term of Court for
Mower county commenced it's session at
Jones hall yesterday morning at II
o'clock. Eugene Wood was appointed
foreman of the grand jury, and the jury
was charged by the court and set to work.
There are only 48 civil cases on the calen-
dar, and it is probable the term will be a
short one, unless larger proportion of
cases are tried than usual.
THE MINER INCEST CAsE.-Last week
Wednesday Chief Riley arrived from
Wahpeton, D. IT,, with B. F. Miner, the
individual charged with the horrible crime
of incest with. his own 10-ycar old daugh-
ter. The wife and daughter came with
him. The prisoner was taken before
Squire Griffith. and the examination adj
journed until Thursday at 2 p. m. On
Thursday County Attorney Greenman
appeared for the State, and Lafayette
French for the defense. The following
witnesses were examined on the part of
the state: Drs Squires and Gibson, G..
N. Conkey, George Sutton, and Luella,
the 1O-year old daughter. The evidence
consisted OF admissions made by both the
daughter and prisoner to Sutton. On the
examination, however, the girl denied
everything. Justice Griffith considered
the evidence sufficient to bind over the
defendant, and he was sent to Jail in de-
fault of $500 bonds, to await the action
of the grand jury at the present term of
court.
-WALTHAM AND UDOLPHO.-Weh had
occasion, short time ago, to make trip
through the towns of Waltham and
Udolpho in this county. Although
we claim residence in Mower
county covering more than Is years,
we never before realized the beauty
aud fertility of the northwest corner OF 1t
as We did on this occasion. 1t lis true that
many of the farmers have seen very hard
times there, and some have been starved
out by poor crops and mortgages, but the
most of those who haye weathered the
gale are now doing we'll. The country is
handsome, the soil rich, and there is no
reason why it will not be, in time, fully
as good as any other portion of the coun-
ty. We found the farmers in Waltham
were fast turning their attention to stock
raising. We called on VIM. Baker, who
purchased Jno. HoY's place about two
years ago. and we were pleased to see, on
every hand, about his premises, the evil
dences of improved farming which he
had brought with him from Illinois. His
fields were we'll titled, his premises tidily
kept, and his herds of horses and cattle
among the best. Mr.. Baker milks dozen
or more COWS, and is shipping his superb
butter to his old home in Rockford, Ill.
where he is sure of the highest market
price. The Baker farm is model one, and
we are glad to say good word for it.
AS we journey on we find the country is
fine and handsome all the way. The east
and west street by the farm of E. P. D.
Kimball. is lovely, and the country on
either side gorgeous. The town of IDOL
pho seems to be equally attractive, both
as to beauty of landscape and fertility OF
soil. Mower county cannot be excelled
by any of the counties in Southern Min
nesota, for mixed farming. Lands are
cheap, and now is the time to strike.
