popular Edition" of Laws of 1895.
The acts of the fourth session Of the
North Dakota legislative assembly, to-
gether with complete synopsis of the
important changes made 1.-the old laws
by the new codes, will in few days be
issued from the press of the Bismarck
Tribune, in the Popular Edition form
retail price rs cts. There are many
startling and important changes in the
laws and the little volume will be the
first and completest review issued. AS
the revised code will not be printed for
some months, this edition will be found
almost indispensable with all classes
immensely more so than any previous
work of this nature. There have been
many changes made, new duties i'm
posed, on county city and township off
GERS, radical departures in the assess
ment and taxation of property lin fact a
complete new revenue law; new gar
nishment law; exemption laws; impor-
tant changes in the school laws, in the
probate code, in the code of civil pro-
cedure, and criminal and justice codes,
The swoodchucks' in the new codes are
numerous and changes radical. The
new revenue law is complete depar-
ture from present methods. 1t must be
remembered that all the new codes
were enacted by the legislature almost
on the report of the committee, were
hurridly read, understood by no one,
and the publication of the Popular
Edition" of the laws from the press OF
the Bismarck Tribune will be the first
and for long time likely to be the
only complete synopsis of the new pro-
visions. 1t will also contain the full
text of the acts of the last session to be
incorporated in the new code. AL
orders for the sPopular Edition. of the
laws will be promptly filled by the
COURIER R-DEAlOCRAT. Retail price Il

Fremont is noted for it's silver
tongued orators.
AS you are so good at guessing Van,
you can guess again.
The majority of our farmers are
through wheat seeding.
1t is rumored that one of our young
men contemplates purchasing new
buggy.
Ken Wyley, of Neche, accompanied
by G. w. Andrews, of Walhalla, took
in the sights of our town last week.
Mr.. Benjaman, who lost his house by
fire recently, is constructing a new
one and expects to move into it next
week.
Some of our residents shipped a con-
signment Of pickles to Langdon last
week, which we do not doubt, will be
greatly relished by the purchasers.
Owing to the large number of set
tiers that have located across the big
canyon, the school board are consider
ing the erection Of a new school house
in that district.
Guy Lane was down from Elkwoot
last week on visit to his brother-in
law. He returned with buggy ant
team and says young fellow is tout o
sight" in his country without thi
necessity.
School Director Wright has mad'
some good improvements in the schoc
under his charge, and now proposes
after seeding, to erect a porch AM
have the stars and stripes waving owe
it's portals.
Rev. Reece delivered his farewell
sermon here last Sunday. His depar
ture will be deeply regretted by tn
many friends and acquaintances h
has made while on this charge. Gres
credit should be given the worthy ger
tleman for his indefatigable efforts i
, securing for the town the chapel thu
c was recently dedicated.

North Dakota. Each district
81 seems the centersst, among
ats is well as pupils. Every
connected with country
bIis known, and the manage
tof it, and the incidents of
Bol life are discussed freely in
Family Of the district. There
many young children walking
long distances to learn the
|iments. North Dakota's schools
give the children foundation
~ good education-something
hard work can not entirely OBJ
lst!e.
may be a mistaken theory,
seyer, that is now held by every
[erate or poor parent, that edu-
on will preserve his children
1an the arduous toll Of farmers
or day laborer's occupation.
Ehe walks Of professional life are
ed with persons who are not now
hing much, if any more, than the
mefs or laborer, and have to
,ke a far more hazardous fight for
iylng. The work of digging and
wing, of muscular labor and of
ming the bread by the sweat of
tbrow will still have to be done
i the sams-with the prospect of
beng better paid than atpresent.

THE PIN WAS FoUND.-At an
entertainment in Dublin a thought
reader boosted that he could find a
marked pin hidden by one Of the
audience. The pin was hidden by
a Trinity student in an adjoining
room in the presence of a commit
tee, among whom was a confeder-
ate. The student, suspecting the
man from his looks, slyly took
away the pin fromits hiding place.
On his return to the platform the
thought reader gazed into the hid
er's face, and putting his hand to
his brow was blindfolded and led
the student to the hiding place, but
of course could find no pin. He
returned, acknowledged his defeat,
and looked daggers at his confeder-
ate. "Now, gentlemen" said the
student. "Pll undertake to say that
if this diviner of the human mind
will do as | tell him half the audi
ence, without a single hint, will
know where the pin is" and turn
ing to the thought reader he said,
"Sit down." lie did so. There
was a yell, and jumping up the
thought reader hastily pulled from
his coat tails the marked pin.

Mrs. w. b. Meen, who resides at
Camptonville, CAL, says her daugh-
ter was for several years troubled at
times with severe cramps in the
stomach, and would be in such
agony that it was necessary to call
IN physician. Having read about
Cham berlain's Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy she concluded to
try it. She found that it always
gave prompt relief. 1t was seldom
necessary to give the second dose.
''lt has not only saved us lots of
worry and time" she says, "but
also doctor bills. 1t is my opinion
that every family should have bot
tie of this remedy in the house. !"

PATENT GUN AND RAW PoTA-
ToEs.-A kind lady from Vermont
writes us of various severe cases of
asthma, including her own, which
were cured by eating raw potatoes.
She says that she ate one even
ing before retiring, nearly all the
autumn, and it cured her entirely
and she has never been troubled
since.
We wish lot of our asthmatic
friends would try a few raw pota-
toes and let US know the result.
IL they cure We shall be glad to
give the matter a wide circulation
in this paper.
We have every confidence in this
kind lady in regard to her own case
and others cited, but as our stom-
ach is rather delicate one, and
our digestion of cooked potatoes
none of the best, we feel in regard
to trying the experiment personally
somewhat as the man did who went
down to Washington during our
civil war, with newly invented
gun warranted to do great execu-
ton on the enemy. but who at the
time of trial remarked to the ex-
aiming board that "as he had q
wife and several small children he
would rather one of them would
fire it. GEO. L. ANGEL.
