What is this "nervous trouble" with which
so many seem now to be afflicted If you
will remember few years ago the word
Malaria was comparatively automatically
it is as common as any word in the English
language yet this word covers only the mean
ing of another word used by our fore-fathers
in times past. SO it is with nervous diseases,
as they and Malaria are intended to cover
wha, our grandfathers called Biliousness, and
all are caused by troubles that arise from a
diseased condition of the Liver which in per-
forming its functions finding it cannot dispose
of the bile through the ordinary channel is
compelled to pass it off through the system,
causing nervous troubles, Malaria, Bilious
Fever, etc. You who are suffering can well
appreciate q cure. We recommend Green's
August Flower. Its cures are marvellous

1T Is OUTRAGEOUS.

The people of Ramsey county are
proud of their new court house, which
is just approaching completion and will
be ready for occupancy within the next
few days. And they have right to be
proud of it. because but few commune
ties can boast of such splendid public
building. Yet it is with a feeling akin
to that excited by some ruthless van
dalism they see its walls blackened and
begrimed each day, until even before
it is ready to be occupied it has the ap-
pearance of some weather-beaten struct-
ure. The interior of the building has
been handsomely and extensively dec
grated. And what for? By the time
the city and county officials have moved
in. the weather will be SO warm that the
windows will have to be kept open for
ventilation. The smoke and SCOT that
are now beginning the outside walls
will then fill the inside. and the ex-
pensive decorations will be ruined. 1t
is nothing short of an outrage that
such magnificent building should be
treated in this manner, and it does
seem that the county commissioners
and the city council between them
should devise some means to abate the
smoke nuisance and protect the new
city hall and court house.

THE CROP PROSPECT.

Crop reports from all parts of the
Northwest are encouraging, but there
is general opinion that unless we have
good soaking rains within the next two
weeks the wheat crop may be cut short.
There was such light snowfall during
the winter there was very little moisture
in the ground when spring came, and
the winds have been drying out that
quite rapidly. This time last year the
Minnesota and Dakota wheat growers
were just getting ready for seeding.
Now the wheat seeding has all been
done, and in the central and southern
parts OF this state and Dakota the early
soWn grain is up, and seems to have
made good stand. The ground was
seeded in good condition, and the rains
of week ago gave the wheat a good
start. The fears OF poor seed not germ
mating will not have been realized.
the dry cool weather of the last few
days is favorable to wheat growing,
provided that there is sufficient moisture
i'll the ground. But it is just on that
point the farmers are nervous. They
realize that frequent rains must fall this
season to keep the crop up to a normal
condition. In the winter wheat districts
the outlook is exceedingly encouraging,
except in some portions of Michigan
where the crop has suffered from a lack
of rain.

WHITE HOUSE RULES.

Mrs. HARRISON has introduced some
of the Western customs into the White
house, and, in consequence, there is a
rafting activity within its venerable
precincts hitherto unknown. Early
rising and regular meals are two of the
innovations. Everybody in the estab-
liShment, including the president, have
to be out of bed at o'clock in the morn
ing, and breakfast is served precisely
half an hour later. At half-past in
the evening family prayers are the
order. and the lights are shut Off at 10.
This systematic method of housekeep-
ing speaks well for the good Judgment
and good sense of the mistress of the
White house, and the president is wise
for renting to his wife the full man
agement of the establishment, instead
of committing it to hired person, as
has always been the custom. Mrs.
HARRISON expresses much anxiety
about her husbands health, and, it is
said, is much disturbed at the in
evitable fatigue which the presi-
dent undergoes i'll the course of
each days official duties. She

regime for his individual benefit and
she sees to it that he follows her direc-
tons. With her characteristic good
sense she will not permit him to 90 di-
rectiy from the breakfast table to his
desk, but she takes him out each morn
ing Immediately after breakfast for a
stroll around the grounds until O'Clock,
and then lets him go to work. Precise
ly at Il he has to report to her and she
finds entertainment for him until l
O'Clock, when he goes to the East room
to receive visitors. At 2 o'clock hight
luncheon is served and then the presi-
dent goes back to his Office where he
works until 5. At that hour Mrs. HAIR
RIsoN promptly calls him out for walk
or drive and keeps him all to herself
until when the family meet at dinner.
This is the presidents daily routine,
and his wife gives her personal atten-
ton to its faithful observance.
