Fargo that the city should own and control
it's own water works, and the city council
has issued specifications and advertised for
bids both to construct new and extend the
present plant. There is a good deal of spec
ulation as to what will be the outcome of
this move on the part of the city, as the pres.
ent company claim to have contract with
the city that will not expire until A. ID. 1911,
Dy which the city gives the franchise for all
water works purposes to the water company,
and agrees to pay them a certain sum every
SIX months for the use OF fire hYdrants, etc.
A correspondent of the Jamestown Alert
tells a hard story OF a turkey gobbler in his
town. The aforesaid bird, without any re-
gard for his SEX has for a year been possess
ed of q desire 10 raise a family, and none of
the useful argum ants applicable to hens in
like cases could i c?,suade his gobbership to.
the contrary, So his owner concluded to let
him set. In due time dozen chickens re-
warded his care. The chicks were taken
away as soonas hatcret The gobbler was dis
consulate and was given a second batch of
eggs to operate upcn. Another brood is due
soon and the gobbIer will be allowed to have
full control of their bringing up.
The delegation from North and South Da-
kota, Montana and Washington believe
that they have little more to do with the
committee on appropriations SO far as the
irrigation survey is concerned. Senator
Casey says the examination of Powell by
the several senator's practically makes their
case Tor them. The land Office. officials will
make every effort to save from the opera
ton OF the withdrawal such lands as are
known to be good torhomestead settlements
and which cannot be benefited or utilized
Tor Irrigation purposes. It is also probable
that the amount allowed for land surveys
will be largely increased, while the amount
allowed Tor irrigation surveys will be de-
creased.

A Good Deal Married.

The dispatches have reported the
case OF much-married Mrs. Weston,
of Providence. This is her story:
According to her statement the Rev.
Charles Weston is marriage mani
&C, that is, he is ever seeking to be
married, never insisting upon a new
bride, but being perfectly content
with Mrs. Weston in that role. Ow-
ing to this matrimonial mania Mrs.
Weston says her married life has
bee-- nelong, narrowing honeymoon.
They were first married at the little
town OF Millbrook, in Wisconsin and
according to the forms of the Meth
odist church. Europe was selected
for honeym Don tour, and while in
Dublin he told her he thought their
marriage was not enthusiastically
perfect because the parson who
united them had not been ordained
by apostolic imposition of hands.
He held that it was absolutely nee
essary, and made arrangements for
another marriage in ST. Patrick's
Cathedral, Dublin. She thought
him over scrupulous, but consented,
and there was another wedding. On
their return home in the steamer he
discovered another flaw. He had
learned that St. Patrick's Cathedral
had once been Catholic cathedral;
that the mass had been sung there,
and that the cathedral had not been
rededicated since it ceased to be used
for Roman Catholic worship. This
omission he held to be fatal and an
other marriage was ordered. Then
he forced her to be married on board
ship by a Presbyterian minister, Rev.
James Monroe. Attendance at one of
lngersolps lectures, where John Cal
vim was denounced, convinced him
that his marriage was illegal. Mar
riages by Baptists, Unitarians, Swed-
enborgians and Spiritualists then
followed, and then, year ago, his
wife got weary, left him and removed
to Providence, where she is now liv-
ing with her sister. She has had a
letter from her husband telling her
that he has ascertained beyond all
possible doubt that a Congregation
al marriage is the only one that has
the endorsement ofheaven, and that
if she will but consent to wedding
in a congregational church he will
forgive her flight, and promises that
this shall be positively the last nup-
tials he will ask her to participate
in. Well, she won't do it.

had a vigorous master in the year
1918, and the Times relates this in
stance of his method: Gone day a
boy named Russell was accused of
some misdemeanor and Master Wes-
ton at once summon a Russell boy
before him. The youth pro tested
his innocence, but the indignant in
structor proceeded to give him a
coWhiding that made him feel un-
comfortable for week. The next
day the teacher was informed that
there had been mistake, that it
was not the boy who had been
logged that was guilty, but his
brother. So a brother of the first
suspect was called forward and
treated to the same medicine as the
first. Latter it transpired that nei-
ther of these was the right one. The
third brother was a tall, stout fell
low, much larger than the teacher,
and the matter declined to proceed
farther, but declared that the de-
mands Of justice had been fully salts
fed.

Negative Doings For Nurses

Do not give the doctor occasion to
say upon entering the sick-room,
ssThea air is close here, you must have
better ventilation.
Do not say to the physician in
charge, CDR. A. does SO and SO. Z,
Follow the directions of one as faith
fully and carefully as those OF the
other.
Do not say disparaging things OF
sister nurses. One never gains any
thing by trying to pull another
down.
Do not gossip about former pa
TENTS. Family affairs should not be
aired by the nurse.
Do not think that you know all
thatis necessary to know about your
work, but be always gathering, and
Gull the best.
Do not pour medicine from a bot
tie without first looking at the label
to make sure, and do not pour medi-
cine over the label; keep that clean SO
that the directions and the number
of the prescription will not be de-
faced.
Do not use dangerous medicine on
your own responsibility; have the
sanction or order from a physician
every time.
Do not forget to preach the gospel
OF pure air, and practice what you
preach.
Do not ask patients what they
want for a meal; find out by other
members of the family their likes and
dislikes. Sometimes they will say
they don like a certain thing to eat;
when it is cooked and served nicely
they will.
Do not leave food in the sick-room.
# anything that is left is wanted for
another time, put it where it viii keep
fresh, and serve in another dish.
Do not fill dishes too full; better TO
have patients ask tor more. Mary

Nursing.
