Mustard and Pneumonia.

The deaths in New York city we're
unusually numerous during january
and February of this year. Many
of these were attributed to pneumo-
MIA. Writing to the World gentle
man says. Pneumonia can be cur
ed if the person will apply promptly
over the lungs poultice or draft
made of mustard and flaxseed meal,
keeping quiet and warm in bed.
Prompt action is TO vital Importance.
and there is no occasion for waiting
for an old fashioned or new fash
ioned practioneer when so simple a
remedy may be applied by any one,
and If taken in season, viii I think
always be effective. In my first
personal experience, my determi-
nation not to give up business, even
for day, came near costing me my
life. The case was neglected till an
eminent physician said that my right
lung would be of just as mnch use
to me out on the table as In the fix
it then was, a fact of which l was
then pretty well aware. But the
mustard and fiaxseed poultice mas
tered the disease, and restored my
lung to its normal condition as good
as new. 1t the second attempt a
year, the case was taken IN hand
promptly, the poultice applied, quiet
and warmth maintained and a speedy
recovery ensued without physician
being called" Mustard is an old
cure, and its healing vir-
tues can hardly be over estimated.
It has saved onr household many a
doctors bill.

IT is a general belief among farm
ers that milk for calves should be
slightly warmed, at least to the tenn
perature natural when taken from
the COW. The calves will drink it
more freely at this warmth. When,
however, the heating is done on the
stove it is apt to be warmer than new
milk. This is injurious. Milk that
has been scalded is constipating even
when cold. If the calf takes food
much above the temperature Of the
stomach the digestive organs are
weakened. Too warm food and
drinks are fruitful causes of dys-
pepsia in men and women, and win
be in farm animal IL the latter are
subjected to their influence.

Gordon could not help taking a
quantity humorous view of things, even
in the dark days of Khartoum. When
he found that MIR. Gladstone's Govern
ment was persistenlly disregarding his
appeals for aid, and became convinced
that he was to become a martyr to du-
ty, he naturally blamed Sir EVELYN
Barring for his abandonment and said
so bluntly in his diary; but he added,
with a keen recollection of his own last
journey across the desert: ..Oh, Ev-
elyn! Evelyn! l would forgive you all
your i~niquities if ] could sec you bump
ing across the Korosko Desert upon a
camel!"

1t was a cobra. Putting my hand be-
meath my pillow Idrew out my revolver,
took aim, fired, and shot off the toe
with the snake attached to it. The toe
was subsequently examined by an ex.

it was pregnated with poison. Had it

mind, l should never have seen my ma.

MIR. WILLIAMS, n of the brightest
lawyers in the Territory, has been de-
feated for maory of Bismarck on the Re-
publican ticket, and MI. Bragg, a COM
paratively unknown man and a Demo
crat, elected. Bismarck is a Republican
city, but the faint of Ordwayism and the
inclination of the Republican leaders to
pursue the political policy of that malo-
dorous individual are having their effect.
The Republican party of the Territory,
to deserve success, must be reorganized
upon an anti Ordway, anti Kenzie,
anti-Edwards basis, or the disreputable
gang will swamp it.

Mustard,

There is considerable talk among the
farmers at present about the quantity Of
mustard seed to be seer among the
growing wheat. Every farmer should
examine his fields carefully and weed it
out, wherever found, as it will pay in
the fall when the wheat is brought into
market, and again it completely chokes
out the wheat wherever it grows, giving
a smaller yield than in adjoining fields
where there is no mustard seed.
Judge OBrien went down to Rock
Island Monday to look after a piece of
wheat he has an interest in, with the in
tention of removing any mustard he
may find in it.

AN exchange in al article upon Dako-

boom of immigration first set in towards
Dakota and it is without parallel in the
history ofnewly settled countries. Eight
years without a failure in crops or dim
mutation in emigration, is the one great
marvel OF our territory that the people
can hardly realize, and it is on that &C
count that it has been so APPLY termed

DEMOCRATIC leaders in South Dakota
are adopting the policy of opposition to
the Sioux Falls convention, not that
they do not desire division or admission,
but simply that they may be in accord
with their partizans in congress, who
will continue to refuse justice to Dako-
ta's 100000 people by denying them the
privileges Of statehood. This question
of the admission of Dakota bids fair to
become a prominent issue in the next
presidential campaign, and it is a sur
prising fact that the Democratic leaders
are too short sighted to see the polit.
ical benefit to be derived to their party
in the country at large by pursuing a
broad.gaged policy relative to the Ter
ritories.

promises to accept a challenge from it
at some future date.

THE agitation over the Sioux Falls
convention discloses not only Demo.
cratic but Republican opposition. The
Republicans who oppose it, however,
are the remaining representatives Of
Ordwayism and the capital ringsters,
The Democratic opponents are those
individual partizans who would rather
see Dakota doomed to eternal terrific.
rial government than to have it come
in as a Republican state. From a party
standpoint nothing different could be
expected.

The recent adjustment of postmas.
ter's salaries speaks we'll for Devils Lake,
which is one of three presidential Offices
in Dakota receiving an increase Of
salary Of 5000 per year. There are five
offices of the third class in the Territory
receiving an increase of 500, eighteen
Offices being reduced 800 and seven re.
duced 5000. This increase of salary in
Devils Lake is unsolicited, being made
upon the actual receipts.
