gerly sought after by men OF small
capital. The best way to pursue this
investigation far is to write to Hon.
Lauren Dunlap, Commissioner Of EN-
igration, at Huron, Da..,s who is the
officer appointed by TIM Territory for
the purpose Of afTording reliable in
formation about Dakota The char
acter, extent and taste displayed in
the decoration of the exhibit will GER
tainly do much to commend Dakota
to seekers after new homes among the
people who have visited New Orleans
during the past six months.
Railroad companies as well rs states
compete with each other for the hon
or Of showing up to the best advan-
tage the resources of the country
through which they pass, and are also
great teachers from whom the public
learn useful lessons. The Louisville
and Nashville, Queen and Crescent,
Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul and
several other roads make exhibits
which have cost them thousands of
dollars to place here and maintain.
The last-named company, who ope-
rate five thousand miles of road
through Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa,
Dakota and Illinois, have added large
~ to the value of the Exposition
through their beautiful display, which
was constructed under the supervis-
ion Of Mr.. w. e. Powell, General
Emigration Agent of the road and
which is now in charge of Mr.. David
Fl. Moses. As brief description of
the exhibit might interest some of
your readers | will attempt it: The
space occupied is $500 square feet,
and IN the center stands an artistic
pavilion built in form of cross,
completely decorated and covered
with heads Of wheat, oats, barley. flax
and grasses grown in the States ira
versed by the road, and on the broad
platforms inside are placed specimens
of the vegetables, corn and fruit.
Thousands Of small sacks of No. l
hard wheat have been given away.
As the principal object of each Wes-
tern State or railway exhibit has been
to attract emigration, from the com
ments your correspondent has over
heard, that road can feel that their
display has not been made in vain.
They have not forgotten to show up
Wisconsin ana Minnesota as summer
resorts, and the Southern travelling
passenger agent Of the road (Mr.
Cliff ?. Kennedy, Of Louisville, Ky.,)
told your correspondent that the sum
mer tourists from the South who would
90 to the resorts on their road this
SIMMER would double discount all
past seasons. The Dakota girl made
entirely from grains and grasses by
Mrs. j. NJ. Palmer, of Aberdeen, Da.,
and the complete miniature engine
made from the same natural products
| By Mrs. knowles and Mrs. Warren,
Of Mitchell, Da., are fine specimens
Of artistic skill in woman's work and
add much TO the credit OF the exhibit.

His Success

Financially and socially, are largely due
to his excellent health. If his system
were clogged and feverish, no doubt he
would fail as so many others do. But
why not enjoy good health when one
can please the palate at the same time ?
Syrup of Figs is not only pleasant to
the taste, it also cleanses the system
thoroughly, yet painlessly; it is harm
less in its nature, and strengthens the
organs on which it acts SO that regular
habits may be formed, and the sufferer
permanently restored to health and
happiness. Sample bottles free and large
