After lost Brother.
special TO the Globe.


GLENDALE, OAK, Oct. 11.-JOhn and
Allan Cameron, of Aberdeen, were in the
city to-day making inquiries after brother
whom they have not seen nor heard from
since 1877. Their brother left his home III
Port Hope, Ontario, in the year of TT. and
came west with several others. During the
nine years of his absence he had never
written to his parents and they supposed he
had died shortly after leaving home. In
1882 the parents and boys came west and
settled in Blown county, Dakota, near
Aberdeen. Last week the boys got infor-
nation that a Canadian answering to their
brothers name and description had been
sub-contractor on the Milwaukee extension
between Roscoe and Bowde. but finished
his contract in the early part of July and
shipped his grading outfit to this place.
The boys made diligent inquiries here to-
day. and in an interview with one of the
Winston brothers found that their brother
had not taken contract on the Milwaukee
extension north of this place, but returned
with his force to Aberdeen.

shouId Not Complain.

From information received through per-
sonal letters from importantpoints through
out the grain districts of Kansas and Ne
braska. a st. Paul man prominent in rail-
road and grain circles is able to give to the
public some figures showing that the farmer
received a much better price for the cereal
products of his land in the Northwest than
in Kansas and Nebraska, the so-called poor
mans Eldorado. The crop reports that are
coming in from the central Minnesota coun-
ties show a large increase over previous
years, while in the north and south of the
state the average is not quite reached. The
corn producing land in Kansas and Ne
braska. it is learned from the best sources.

FARGO, Oct. lin the letter of Mr..
Ryan in Saturdays GLOBE, in regard to
Cass county, that gentleman. unintionally,
no doubt, does injustice to the Fargo cor
respondent. probably owing to the fact that
he. RYAN, has been absent and so engrossed
in professional duties. as to rely upon the
impressions of careless or prejudiced read
ers for his information. His complaint is
that his wing of the Democratic party had
been referred to as "a gang" and that the
names of the delegation to Aberdeen, which
was admitted, were not published in the
GLOBE. On more careful inquiry he will
fail to find the word gang" or any dispar-
aging term applied to his element of the
party in any Fargo correspondence. He
will also find the names of the Aberdeen
delegation published in the GLOBE the day
following their appointment. The other
list was not made up for some weeks later,
and of course appeared by itself. AS each
element claims exclusive recognition as the
Democratic party, fidelity to obvious facts

A Startling Fact.

1t is not commonly known that a large
proportion of the rheumatism and neuralgia
extant is traceable directly to the diseased
condition or imperfect action of the kidneys
and liver; therefore remedy which cures
the resulting disease must have found and
Smitten the first cause. Many persons using
AthlophoroS for rheumatism and neuralgia
have been surprised to find that chronic
disorders of the liver and kidneys have also
been greatly relieved and they have written
for an explanation. The fact is, that the
remedy acts directly on these organs,
cleansing them from all irritating sub
stances and regulating their action. Taken
in connection with AthlophOrOs Pills this
is, without exception, the most valuable
kidney and liver remedy in the world, and
will cure large portion of those who have
these diseases.
Charles F. Griffin, Stuart, Ia, says: 81
have not had an ache or pain of rheumatism
since used the Athlophoros, which is now
over year ago. For three months my
store was closed. not being able to attend to
my business at all. My joints were swollen
and there did not seem to be any part of
my body that did not ache. After suffering
in this way until the pain was almost be-
yond endurance, / went to the ColfaX
Springs to try the effects of the water. The
day left home l had to be carried down
stairs. After remaining at the Spring a
month / came back, being some better.
After being home few weeks l had re
lapse. 1t was at this time that | learned
of Athlophoros. l sent for bottle of il
and in fifteen minutes after had taker
the first dose l felt its effects, and when
had finished the third bottle was well.
have not had any rheumatism since.
Every druggist should keep AthlOphOros
and Athlophoros Pills, but where they can
not be bought of the druggist the Athlo-
phoros company, 112 Wall street. New
York. will send either Carriage paid) Oh
receipt of regular price, which is 81 pei

For liver and kidney diseases, dyspepsia,
