have sustained such great loss by fire
within the past month, felt yesterday
afternoon that much Of their loss was
compensated By the escape of three

4 Dakota Editor in a Quandary.
The Volga Tribune.

The NOlga 1TlOuuc.
The editor of the Tribune is in a
quandary. As promised, he has pre-
pared a splendid personal write-up Of
available bachelors in this vicinity
over two scores in number-but the
aforesaid write-up has become ga

half hundred fair maidens beseech
him to be brave and publish it for
their benefit, as large a number OF the
sterner sex have quietly but firmly in
formed him that clubs are trumps
with them and he mentions their
names at his peril. Won't some firm
hearted blue stocking" volunteer to
take his place for couple of weeks
or until this thing is over?

An Aurfst's Prescription for Earaohe.


Il am afraid l have greatly interfered
with my own practice, said a celebrated
aurist, "by giving the following advice
to many Of my friends: Attha first symp-
toms Of earache let the patient lie on the
bed with the painful ear uppermost.
Fold a thick towel and tuck it around
the neck; then with a teaspoon fill the
ear with warm water. Continue doing
this for fifteen or twenty minutes; the
water viii fill the ear orifice and flow
over on the towel. Afterward turn over
the head, let the water run out and plug
the ear with warm glycerin and cotton.
This may be done every hour until re-
lief is obtained. It is an almost invaria-
BILE cure and has saved many cases of
acute inflammation. The water should
be quite warm, but not too hot. Lon
