Where the Fire is Out.

MAGIC NO MORE A MYsrERY-sEEN FROM
ACROSS THE WORLD.
''Haroun OF Aleppo," said Sir Philip Derval
''had mastered every secret in nature which the
nobler magic seeks to fathom. He discovered
that the true art Of healing Is to assist Nature to
throw off the disease-tO summon. as it were,
the whole system to eject the enemy that has
fastened on part. His processes all included
the refrigeration Of the principle of life."
In this the Eastern sage merely anticipated
the practice of the best physicians Of to-day
What life itself is, nobody knew then-nobody
knows now. But we have learned something of
the reasons why the mysterious tide rises and
falls. Provided the great organs of the body are
not irYeparably destroyed, medical science
can always relieve, and often save. Yet no re-
putable physician now adheres to the barbarO,,s
processes OF depletion, such as bleeding, by
which 1t was attempted to cure disease BY re-
ducing the patients ability to resist it. Nova
days we do not tear down the fort TO help the
garrisOn-We strengthen It,
In this Intelligent and bcneficent work, 1t is
conceded that PARKER'S TONIC leads all
other medicines. AS an invigorant it acts i'm
mediately and powerfully upon the circulation
and the organs OF digestion, thus giving Nature

The Dude of the Record last week
attacked the Creamery and then had to
80 around and explain that he didn't
mean the creamery. a week or two
before he III tackled the Council and then
he had to go around and explain that
he didn't mean the council. Next week
he will probably come out and explain
that he didn't mean the St. Paul &
Omaha railroad. Whenever the Dude
opens his mouth he puts lis foot in it.

THE DUDE ON THE RAMPAGE.

THE DUDE ON THE RAMPAGE
The Dude of the Rec, rd last week
published 4 column and 2 half of sense
less abuse of the St. Paul & Omaha
railroad. Some were indignant at the
foolish animus of the screed, but people
generally laughed ut the fellow who
could write himself down such don.
key. The railroad company have just
one reason for refusing to issue passes
to editors, viz: where the editor vio-
lales the conditions by lending or SELL
ing some previous pass. 1t is more
probable, however, in this case, that
the conduct Of the silly Dude on the
trip down from Window several weeks
ago WAS reported ut headquarters. 1t
is probable also that the company do
not consider the Record legitimate
newspaper and only !, temporary black
guard sheet, and therefore refuse to
recognize it.

AS the Teachers Associations are

to young teachers, it is surprising that
they do not avail themselves of the
opportunity to learn some good teach

teaching, and yet they deem it unneces-
Sary to attend these associations which,
are for the very purpose of helping
them. Prof. Wright and DR.. Craft are

writes to renew his subscription and
says:
think the ADVANCE is tho paper
for the southwest. have been through
your county twice and know from my
own observation the correctness of your
statement as to the advantages in that
county. 1 am so thoroughly convinced
of them that will he there as soon as
can, and improve my land III Jackson
county, which is the county notwith.
standing your fine articles or Mobiles.
True enough. Southwestern Mimi
esota is all Of a piece. Jackson, Mobiles,
Rock, Murray, ETC., are all the same
stretch Of magnificent prairie woven in
the same loom, and you will never find
the ADVANCE undertaking other coun-
ties in the hope of advancing Mobiles.
Three-fourths of Mobiles county is as
admirably adapted to wheat and grain
raising as any part of S. w. Minnesota,
while one fourth of the county was
ms6e on purpose for dairying and stock
raising. We claim superiority over
other counties in this. That IS, we
have more acres adapted specially to
stock growing than any other county.
Mr.. Van Nest has land across the line
in Jackson county, and We shall give
him hearty welcome and furnish Jim
supplies from Worthington.
