GETTING TEETH PULLED.

If Gas Is to Be Taken 1t Should Be Taken On
an Empty Stomach.
New York Hersld.1
As to when to extract teeth have only
to say that once it is decided to have the
tooth removed the sooner it be done the bet
ter. If it is designed to take gas, the
dentist should not be visited Immediately
after meal, as the presence Of food in the
stomach is likely to result In nausea and
vomiting, which is unpleasant for both the
patient and the operator. Take gas on IN
empty stomach.
As to how to extract teeth much could b
said. In the first place. as in other things,
certain knack is required rather than
mere strength Of the wrist. Occasionally
considerable force must be exerted, but
more usually the pain Of the operation may
be much lessened by dextsritZ

The Benevolent Side of DIR. Koch's Cure
for Consumption.
New York Herald.l
1t will be to the undying honor of Germany
that at this hour money is laughed to scorn,
and while fortunes are offered for few
drops OF the lymph it is given away for the
mere cost OF making it, and in some cases
even that triae is refused The attitude of
DR.. Koch and of the Government is senti-
mental and noble beyond the power of
words to express. II, as DR.. Virchow says,
the scientific side of the discovery will be
one of the most glorious pages in the history
of medicine, the benevolent side of it will be
one OF the brightest psges in the history Of
philanthropy.

The sun had gone down. The stars were

was not dark. Light light everywhere!
Not jets of light like lamp or electric lights,
but huge sheets of light, soft and luminous
as the face of the moon. But more of this

been the truth. 1 could not have dared to

sweeping leaves.

Grave and learned men, beautiful and

The musicians, some distance back and up
in the bougns, like singing birds, were not
of the old and tired type, bold and exhausted
from bad air, bad lights and care aud

full of the music of their own high spirits.

No, it was not the music of the civilized

A. MOUSE ON A WIRE.

He Does the Tight-Rope Act In Spite Of Pro-
tests of Sparrows.
Baltimore Americana
An amusing incident was witnessed yes
terday morning on St. Paul, Fayette and
Charles streets, in which a small mouse
figured as high-wire performer, attracting
the attention Of a large number Of spectators
of both sexes. When the mouse was hrst
seen he was on telephone pole at st. Paul
street and Bank lane, and is supposed to
have come from one of the telephone con-
duits, which are infested with mice. From
the pole the little rodent walked deliber-
ately along one of the telephone wires

and up St. Paul street to Fayetts street.
Here he was seen by two sparrows, who i'm
mediately showed fight, probably because
they thought the wires the exclusive prop
ertY of their tribe, and resented the intru-
sion. The spasrows would swoop down as
near as they dafed, giving vent to their pc

SANBORN.

The G. & N. w. R'y Co. is getting
right down to business. They are not
only building one of the best stock
yards on their road at Sanborn, with
hay managers and water boxes, but
they are digging a we'll for use in the
stock yard, and will have large pair
of stock scales.
We were much pleased with a few
expressions in the last part of our
county superintendent school report.
He says our teachers have been en-
Outraged to try and elevate the culture
of their districts, but that all have not
been interested. He says some per-
sons who teach, nay keep school, do
not care. He is right-they kill time.
And we want to remark that our school
board at Sanborn have too much bus
mess in their stores to look after their
school district improvements, and to
prove this all one has to do is to take
look at the disgraoeful condition of
our school house lot at Sanborn.
All of the parties that went from
here to see the twin cities and their
exhibits and other fine scenery are
we'll pleased.

LOCAL MARKET REPORT.
W.C.T.U. EXPECTATIONS,


We expect to have such a patron
age during the fair that we shall real
ize large nucleus for our future w.
G. T. U. Home.
We expect to establish this home
on the ground floor, and in location
that will be as available to the gen.
eral public as any other refreshment (!)
room in town.
We expect to have it pleasantly
furnished and homelike.
We expect that it will contain the
public ibrary,pepers, magaz ines, and
all kinds of reading matter.
We expect that some of the pictures
on the walls will be paintings fur
nished by our local artists, and of
no small merit.
We expect that oil for lighting pur-
poses and fuel for heating will be
moe or less largely contributed by our
local dealers.
We expect that our merchants will
contribute of their wares to beautify
and adorn the home.
We expect that public-spirited citi-
zens generally will open their hearts
and pockets to further this enterprise.
We expect in any event to have this
home, but feel that these privileges
should be accorded you.
We expect after its establishment
that the public will avail itself of it's
privileges. That you will test the
quality of its coffee and sandwiches
and make yourselves comfortable in its
parlor and reading room. That peo-
pie in town from the country, families
and heads of families will always find
it a pleasant and homelike place for
waiting and resting.
And finally the w. G. T. U. expect
to endeavor to create such sentiment
for temperance acd good morals in the
community, that the future will see
all good men and true laboring, not for
high license but prohibition and the
abolishing of the saloon business from
our midst.

What are we Here For?

" hnt aEo we heEo r".
At recent meeting of the alliance
committee at St. Paul, the newspapers
were scored severely for Dragging up
the crops, the committee alleging that
this sort of thing creates false i'm
preston and keeps down tho price of
wheat. We have too much respect for
the judgment of wheat gamblers to be-
lieve that they are greatly Influenced
by the newspaper crop boomer. The
basis of the crop estimates which real
ly control the great markets is some
thing great deal more substantial.
The principal purchasers of the great
staple have expert agents at every
railroad station, and these are in po-
sition to give information that at least
approaches accuracy.
It is certainly not the mission of the
local paper to suppress the facts in re-
gard to good crops. These reports do
not cut much of figure in the market
ratings, but they tend to increase the
demand for real estate where such
crops are reported, and thus to raise
the value of the land. No land owner
can be blind to the value of influences
which in this county have increased
the value of many quarter-section at
least two-fold. Land that was slow of
sale at six and eight dollars per acre
two or three years ago in this county,
is now eagerly taken at from twelve to
twenty dollars per acre.
The local papers cannot claim that
they achieved this increase, but by
faithfully and favorably reporting the
series of good crops with which this
county has been favored, they may
properly claim to have contributed to
this effect in the same way that adver-
Using contributes to the sale of mer-
chandise. Land owners here are only
beginning to appreciate the extent to
which this increase in the value of
Redwood county lands is adding to
their prosperity. Yet we contend that
it is susceptible of proof that in
townships in this county, the difference
in the selling value of farm lands now
over three years ago, in single town
ship would pay the cost of our new
court house. The local paper is bound
to call attention to the advantage OF
the locality in which it is established.
That is one of the things that the five
papers of Redwood county are here
for. There should be no misrepresen-
tation, any more than in any other
form of reputable advertising, but it
is folly to talk of the papers suppress.

their jurisdiction.

OUR HARVEST FESTIVAL.

est Fair ever held In Redwood County.

Redwood corn and flax, Redwood
sheep with snowy coats and aeeces

prize and top the market fairly, did
you hear how at Chicago twas done,
DER all the west entirely' Redwood

Tracy, Redwood swine are regular
hogs, and faith they wont disgrace ye;
Redwood pumpkins, squashes, beets,
Redwood murphies plenty, Redwood
fruits and other sweets, Redwood lass
es, kent YET Will all be at the county
fair next week, together with numer-
Gus prose attractions. Various western
cities are celebrating the abundant
harvest this year by harvest festivals,
and Redwood county, which has the
browning harvest over many good ones
preceding it to fifty celebrate, should
do its best next week. A large attend
ance is safely assured, and the only
thing at all uncertain is whether our
farmers will take the time necessary
to bring their stock and products with
them. They should realize that it is
not SO much question of profit as of
credit to them individually and col
lectively. The greatest value of an
agricultural fair is the opportunity
given for advertising both the county
and the enterprise and thrift of its
people, together with the chance for
comparing views and experiences and
for taking recreation for day or two
during busy season.
The business men of the county seat
have certainly done fairly we'll by the
fair association in contributing five or
six hundred dollars in cash purses and
valuable special premiums. They un-
doubleday expect that this action will
increase the spirit of competition on
the part of exhibitors, and we appre-
bend that if their intentions are ap-
preciated that these aids to the annu-
al meeting will be forthcoming at fu-
ture fairs.
FAIR FORECASTS.
With the new windmill in full swing,
there will be no trouble about water
ing stock at the fair grounds.
Old patrons of our county fairs will
hardly recognize the grounds with all
the Improvements added since the last
exhibition.
Bicycle races will be on the pro
gramme for the fair next week, compe-
tition confined to Redwood and Rem
vile counties.
Every yard of bunting in town
should be flung to the breeze during
the fair. Let Redwood be made as
gay as possible, and let hospitality
rule everywhere.
1t is probable that two games of
ball between Redwood Falls and Gold
on Gate will be played next week, the
first on Wednesday afternoon and the
second on the following day.
The matter of eating and drinking
on the grounds is settled right this
year. There will be plenty to eat "ike
your mother used to cook" and the
beverages will be straight W. g. T. U.
drinks.

Sample Interviews,

G. W. George: There is nothing the
matter with our wheat market just now,
except that farmers are all storing
their wheat instead of selling it, and
elevator men don't like that state of
affairs very we'll. A good sharp rise
in price would make things hum. As
all the wheat is No. this fall, any
chump can buy wheat, and there is no
chance for kicking on grades. We
occasionally hear of an agent who
doesn't dock wheat for dirt, but inves-
tigation always shows that these fell
lows even up matters by taking enough
out of one class of farmers to make up
for what they give to favored ones as
a bait, and thus they made their
weights hold out. But l haven't heard
of much of this going on lately. I
have no advice to offer about farmers
holding wheat. But so far it looks as
though wheat couldn't be pounded
down lower than rs cents a bushel, no
matter how fast it is poured into the
market. 1t dropped to that point
once or twice, but every time hobs up
again. Wheat buyers are not scrap
ping" any so far. That makes fun for
the farmers and merchants, but I no
tice that our merchants are mighty
careful to keep the peace among them
selves. We buy wheat on a margin of
3 cents above freight, and war in the
wheat market means little or nothing
for our pay.
G.. E. Mckay: Mckinley hasn't
affected the grocery trade, SO far as
know, except in sugar and it's prepare
tons. Dried fruits are much cheaper,
and teas are cheaper. Coffees are
about the same. AS this staple is in
the hands of a few holders and will
keep for years without losing quality,
am inclined to think the market is
manipulated. While in the cities last
week, I investigated the cheap rates
quoted by Yerxa and other adsertis.

inferior, and it wouldn't do for a coun
try merchant to handle some of them
at any price. But with half a million

there are always plenty of suckers, anc

plenty more to take their places.
