How to Select a Wife.

Good health, good morals, good sense
and good temper, ARE the four essentials
for a good wife. These are the indis-
pensables. After them come the minor
advantages of good looks, accomplish
ments, family position, etc. With the
first four, married life will be comfort
able and happy. Lacking either,it will
be in more or less degree a failure.
Upon good health depends largely good
temper and good looks, and to some eX-
tent good sense also, as the best mind
must be affected more or less by the
weaknesses and whims attendant on frail
health. Young man, if your wife is
falling into IA state of invalldism, first
of all things try to restore her health.
If she is troubled with debilitating
female weaknesses, buy DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription. 1t will cure
her.

makers suffer great loss often as high as %

come these difficulties. It's roof
is OF thin iron in Sheets overlapping each

and by turning crank the whole roof is
drawn up under the ridge pole. The sides OF
the building are made like a huge slated

blaine on National Bi, ukS.

Mr.. Blaine's attack on Secretary Fair
child, in relation to money loaned to the
National Banks, was at once emphati-
cally answered in two ways. First, by
showing that Republican Secretaries Of
the Treasury had done this to much
greater extent and for long time, with
out any warrant of law and, secondly,
that Fairchild was doing it now in due
accordance with law which makes it
obligatory to do it.
Certain poorly informed, or purposely
dishonest Republican papers are denying
these statements. The following may be
sufficient to set this at rest: :
Hon. John Sherman, Republican Sec
retary of the Treasury, in his statement
of the "assets Of the United States Treas
ury," in the year 1879, presented the

Reported.

ST. PAUL, October 2S.-Territorial
Auditor Ward, of Dakota, has Just re.
turned to Fargo from DEVILS Lake, where
he has been investigating the condition
Of the Jews and other destitute settlers
Of Ramsey county. In an inter view, he
said said he found among the business
men of DEVILS Lake the sentiment that
the whole matter had been greatly ex-
aggerated. Although the residents of
the northern part of the county had lost
their wheat crops entirely and portion
of their other crops, he made a
thorough personal investigation and
found that the Jews had sufficient hay,
oats and straw to winter their stock and
teams to do their fall work. They had
comfortable houses, but lacked flour,
clothing and fuel. A large quantity OF
supplies has already been shipped them
by the Jewish residents of St. Paul and
Minneapolis and other points, who had
promised to supply their wants. Many
American families were in want. and
will have to be supplied from the funds
already donated. A committee was ap.
pointed to make an equitable distribu-
ton of the funds, and if anything is left
in the spring, it will be used in purchas-
ing seed wheat.

RECENTLY morning contemporary

RECENTLY morning contemporary
tersely but elegantly observed to this ef-
feet: "Adipose has long enough occu-
pied the White House. 1t is time to
bring this to an end, and usher in the era
of brains" The words may not be exact,
but the sense(?) and the style are pre-
served. Gen. Vandever cannot be sus-
pected of having any too tender regard
for the Democratic occupant of the White
House which would lead him to speak in
over-glowing terms OF his habits or his
ability. When the de facto Congressman
was on his way home from the seat
which he now holds by the grace
of Mr.. Dunsmoor's fragrant act, and
the leniency of the Democratic
Committee on Elections, some Republi-
can fellow of the bitter spirit and shallow
Drained stripe, during discussion on the
canvass used some very uncomplimentary
language about the President. Another
person in the company turned to General
Vandever and said: General, I suppose
Cleveland is rather worthless sort of
fellow" The Congressman answered: !:
"No, cannot say he is. He is the most
painstaking, careful, laborious man 1
ever knew. He is buried in the duties of
his office all the time. He examines
minutely into all the details
of every matter brought before him, and
gets at the merits OF each case with
much diligence" The third party then
said: "But Mr.. Cleveland cannot be
man Of brains?" General Vandever
once more came to the rescue OF Presi-
dent Cleveland with the protest: "Well,
no, that is not correct statement. He
is man Of brains, and he knows how to
use them" After passing through two
narrators the exact words used by Mr..
Vandever cannot be attempted, but as
the story reaches us that is
about the substance OF the con-
versation. Vandever cannot be taken
as a biased witness in favor of
the President, and as he has just come
from Washington where he has had
nearly two years. opportunity of seeing
what sort of man Mr.. Cleveland is, his
estimate may be worth as much as that
of our esteemed contemporary.

Dickinson Cuts HIaine,s plume

BosToN, October ga representative
OF the Boston Herald called upon Post.

Washington and said to him: "Have
you seen Mr.. Blaine's reply to vour
Western speech on New England"
81 want to ask in all seriousness. y
said Mr.. Dickinson, whether Mr.. Blaine
is well. His statements out West have
bee been extraordinary on every subject.
There is more than touch ol
Don Quixote de la Mancha in
some OF his rhetorical capers. With
dozens of excellent speeches on the
issues OF the campaign urgently calling
for replies from representative statesmen
this 'uncrowned king OF debaters inco.
herently belabors speech which he says
l have delivered through the West. The
speech exists only in his Imagination.
The Knight of the Sorrowful Figure tilt.
ing at the windmills was not more gro.
tesque and pitiful.
Here is something else he said in
Michigan. Referring to wood pulp, he
said: 1T is Cabinet affair. Dickinson
and Secretary Bayard's son own the
patents, and right there lies the free
trade joke of the season. Wood pulp
was on the free list, but has now been
placed on the protected schedule. 1t is
an industry which should be protected,
IT seems, even if it does put Cleveland e
Cabinet in rather an anomalous posi-
tion.'
Now / do not even know Mr.. Bay
ards son, and, of course, have no inter

the only reply l would make to this
charge would be that OF Horace Greely
