love her more!
The old days seemed 20 come again while sit
ting side by side
Where first she said she'd be my wife--we didn't
call 1t bride
told her then: How sweet you are!" an felt
my pulses thrill
With all that sweetness close to me-but now
she's sweeter still!
We talked it over, sitting there, near loves
OWE happy lands.
And once more felt the first sweet joy that
comes of holdin' hands;
She seemed to be my sweetheart still-'twas all
just as before
But we clasped each other closer, and we loved
each other more!

wisdom tooth, two and fourth inches;
total length of jaw, FIVE and fourth
inches. The upper was fully as large,
while the teeth resenbled those of a
COW more than those of human be-
ing. They were badly worn and would
go to show that the owner ate meat,
presumably buffalo, a great deal. A
dentist when shown the teeth said that
they were much larger than any of
those of a white person living in this
age.
A theory advanced is that these are
the remains of some Mandan Indians,
who were the earliest settlers of this
part of the country, but were ulti-
mately exterminated by the Sioux.
The size of these bones would explode
this theory, however, as the Mandans
were not a large race. Another theory
is that they are, perhaps, the remains
of northwestern Indians who were
killed by another tribe. This tribe
were large in stature, according to ira
dition, many being six feet and more
in height.
The reporter found about fifty feet
from the location of this trench an
other in which were buried the remains
of five grown persons and one infant.
A spade piled to the earth soon brought
to view the remains of six human
beings These skulls were smaller
and not of such extraordinary think
ness as those exhumed from the first
trench. They also bore the appearance
ofhaving lain in the ground for longer
period, as they would crumble apart of
their own weight, while those first dis
covered were in fair state of preser-
walton. The cavities of the skulls had
become filed with dirt, and it was only
with great care in handling that very
fair specimen was preserved. The
trench was only three feet square and
about two feet deep. In order to place
a human body into so small grave it
must have been. fearfully mutilated.
When found the arms were over the
head, while the tibia and fibia were
found under all. The skulls were
also found in different positions, some
being straight up and down, while 9TH
ers were lying face up and some with
the face down..
No pottery, metal or the like was
found by which they could be classed
with the mound builders.
