Dright's Disease.

Referring to what appeared on this
subject in the Scientific american
recently, DR.. De Bora, of Crystal
Springs, n. v, writes that, after
years of practical test of the milk
diet for Bright's disease, he has a
long list of cases in which he has
made perfect cures. Great care Is
taken to get absolutely pure skim
med milk, from healthy and well
fed cows, and no other food OF any
kind is given after the patient can
bear five pints of milk day. Up
to this point, and until the stomach
is able to take care of so much, is
found to be the most trying period
in this treatment, but no other
medicine is given, and hand and
hair-glove rubbing is daily admins
tered.
Another correspondent takes eX-
ception to the claim made that no
drug of any therapeutic value in
disease has vet been discovered. In
support of his assertion he sends Us
a receipt which ne claims has effect
ed a cure in Bright's disease, as well
as in dropsy, in every case in which
it has been, tried during the last fiji
teen years. He recommends the
drinking of an infusion OF the dry
pods of the common white soup bean
or corn bean. When the latter can
not be readily obtained the pods of
the ''snap short bean will answer,
and even the Lima bean. though the
latter is of inferior strength. The
recipe is as follows: Take double
handful of the pods to three quarts
of water; boil slowly for three hours
until it is reduced to three pints.
Use no drink of any kind but this,
the patient drinking as much as he
conveniently can; it may be taken
either hot or cold. ."-Scientifc Amer

A Beer King.

. ! - ' =
A Beer King. -
Baron Bass, the great English brew
er, is dead. His business in selling beer
alone amounted to $12,OOO,NOO yearly.
His London stores covered six acres Of
ground, all Of which was needed for his.
barrels and hogsheads. He paid $4,000.
a day in internal revenue, taxes. Bass
ale is sent in immense quantities to ev-
cry part Of the world. Baron Bass was
thirty-ive years a member of Parlia4'
ment, and he was SO proud of his name
and business that he refused apeerage.
Notwithstanding the re%prehensiple
character OF his business, Bass was a
generous giver to churches, charitable
institutions, and reading rooms for the
poor. Beer brewers, by the way, seem
to be an exception to ether liquor deal
ers in the good they try to do with their
ill-gotten wealth; Vassar, who gave the
young women OF America their first
college, was a brewer. Guinness, the
manufacturer of the famous porter that
bears his name, was notable for his ben
.efactions. But all the good these men
may do can never atone for the misery
they bring on hundreds of thousands
of families in catering to a taste that
is the most vicious Of all human indul-
gences.-Demorest's Monthly:
Our neighbors out west in Jerauld
county are very anxious for a railroad,
and with good reason, too, but it is not
probable that they will get one this
year, although there is no doubt that
the S. N. will be extended west to the
Missouri in the future. It is for the
interest Of Woonsocket that the road
should be extended, as it will open up
one of the finest sections Of country in
south Dakota and give the best town
in the valley another railroad outlet.
1t is not in accord with previous expe-
rience that Woonsocket should gain
any permanent advantage by having a
railroad terminate here. No town was
ever built up solely upon a railroad ter
minus, and rarely upon the crossing of
rival lines is a town of any Importance
built, as it is not to the interest Of a
railroad to help even in a roundabout
way to increase the business of a rival.
There can be no possible doubt that
Woonsocket will become a town of i'm
portance on this railroad line, and that
when the line is extended west to the
river the repair shops will be located
here. Our neighbors west will not
more heartily welcome the advent of
the extension than we shall, for it will
benefit them and us a~like.-Woonsocket

Preparing to Open.

Wheeler Record:-A committee of
young men of the Yankton Indians
started out this week among their tribe,
with a petition soliciting signatures to
a proposition to sell part Of their reser-
walton. They go at this business diff
ferent from what the pale face does
when they are working up a scheme.
While these young men are very anx-
ious to sell, and would rather have the
majority on their side, they carry a
petition with them demonstrating
against alternating any of their land.
Whenever they tackle q fellow for his
signature they lay both petitions before
him and he "a choose for himself
which one he will sign. It will take
two weeks to canvass the agency.
When the two petitions will be submit
ted to a council, if the petition favora-
BILE to selling receives amaiority of sig
natures, application will be made at
once through the agent to the govern
ment to do so; if the non-alienators, of
which Old Strike is the leader, is in the
majority, the thing will be dropped.
We hope the young bucks Will be in
the majority.
The director Of the mint, in his annu-
al report on the production of the pre-
cious metals, places the total production
during the calendar year 1888 as fol-
lows: Gold, S3o,0Oo,Ooo; silver, at it's
coinage rate, $46,2OQ,OoO. Arizona pro-
duced $95o,OW in gold and s5.2OO,Ooo
silver; California, $14, 10000 gold and
$1,460,OOO silver; Colorado, $4,1OO,0OO

mainder was produced principally in
Alaska, Oregon, Georgia and North

yield Of 1852.

Rustic ALI the Time.

Sioux Falls Fress:-It is a common,
but nevertheless a great mistake, that
the citizens Of some towns make by al
lowing the general prosperity to- lull
them into a comfortable lethargy. Men
are too prone to allow matters of pub
lie local interest to run themselves
when they are doing measurably well.
They do not seem to understand chat
when the tide OF, %fortune is in their ia
vor it is athousand times easier TO ac-
complish many times mora with the
same efforts than it is when the tide is
against them. The time TO strike is
when the iron is hot. A town is. just
like a man. When he is prospecting
everybody wants to help him. When a
town is booming everybody wants to
invest, and that's the time to put forth
efforts and bring in capitalists and es.
tablish industrial enterprises. They
will help us through the rainy days
that are bound to come in the life Of a
town as we'll as in the life of a man.
The coming season gives promise of
being the best for the growth Of cur
industrial interests of any we have had,
andtherefore, now is just the time when
united action by our citizens will place
Sioux Falls still further in the lead of
any town in Dakota. When we are
growingis when small efforts will bring
large results.
We have no disposition to find fault
with our people-they have done well.
But there is nothing like keeping the
fact before them that thousands of
eastern capitalists are coming out to
look Dakota over this season, With a
view to investment, and that it is nee
essary to be on the lookout for them.
They should never lose sight of the
fact that the more we get the easier it
is to get more. 1t is a comparatively
easy matter for a man with 100000 to
make money. The same principle ap-
plies tota city like Sioux Falls. 1t is a
bad plan TO wait until it is necessary to
strain every energy to maintain what
we already have instead Of rustling
it will augment our possessions a hun
bred fold.
