The Honest Shakers and Their
Cure for Dyspepsia.

The shopkeeper who cheats us by
lying with regard to the quality of his
goods, and the grocer or the butcher
who gives us short weights, is a thief.
However, their knavery touches moth
ing but our pocketbook. There is an
other widespread form of misrepre-
sentation of a far more dangerous and
villainous character.
We refer to the false statements and
worthless guarantees that frequently
accompany medicines. To guarantee a
medicine to cure is to brand it as a
quack product. If we can guarantee
to cure disease, then we can guarantee
everlasting life, for in a large majority
4 of cases people die of disease, the pro-
portion Of violent or accidental deaths
being very small.
The Shakers have always been known
as a most upright and honorable peo-
pie, and their success in the rnanufac-
ture of medicines has also been we'll
known. 1t is therefore not surprising
to find them pursuing a very original
and novel plan for the introduction Of
their remedy for dyspepsia
These God-fearing people, whose
motto has always been ''Try all things
and hold fast that which is good" have
4 put upon the market ten cent sample
\ bottles of their product, or sufficient
to give it trial
The Shaker Digestive Cordial is so
prompt in its action that for the trivial
sum Of ten cents a person can usually
determine as to whether or not it meets
the requirements of his case There
i are forms of dyspepsia which It won't
help. but these are very rare, In most
cases the first dose relieves all distress,
and an increase of appetite at once
4 follows.
All druggists have it, and the next
time you are troubled with indigestion
send out and try this popular and sue
cessful product. 1t represents nearly a
hundred years of patient investigation
and study.

Red Cross Will BE Allowed to Distrib.
uto Armenian Relief.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.-Owing to the
energetic representations of United
States Minister Terrell, Miss Barton
and her party will be permitted by the
Turkish government to distribute re.
lief to the distressed Armenians, al
though the Red Cross will not figure in
the work. This news came to the state
department. in cablegram from the
minister to Secretary O]uey, in which
he says that while the porte
refuses such permission to the Red
Gross, or to- the members of
the Red Cross, as such, and
thereby declines to officially recognize
that society, it will permit any person
whom the minister names and ap-
proves to distribute relief in the interior
of Turkey provided the Turkish author
tiles are kept informed of what they
are doing. There can be no question
that Miss Barton and her party WI be
so designated by Mr.. Terrell.
But it is unprecedented that they will
encounter almost insurmountable OBJ
stacles in reaching the field of action,
as the mountain passes between the
seaboard and the interior are now prac-
tlcally impossible owing to the deep
SHOWS.

Bible Reading.

There seems to be tendency in our
days to denOunce Bible reading in
our public schools: but the point isnot
we'll taken, because we have Bible
reading in our text books. and what
is allowable in our readers ought to
be allowed in the Bible itself.
But explaining what is read in the
Bible is contrary to the ''Constitution
of the Land because there should be
freedom of conscience, and sectar-
ianism is not freedom Of conscience.
An atheist can make any amount
of trouble in district and may even
institute proceedings against the
Board of Trustees: but he certainly
will gain nothing by it. Besides he
has no right to speak about the rights
of conscience in what he does not be-
lieve, for conscience is the voice
Of God, and God is revealed in his
word sis the standard" on which the
right and wrong is tested.
The laws Of our state declare that a
teacher is ''in duty bound" to give in
structions in morality: but all good
morals point back to the bible as the
original source of morality.
And it is constitutionally right foi'
our present lawmakers in the Legisla-
ture and Congress to have the Bible
read in the morning. then it is also
right for our coming lawmakers to do
it, and it remains for the State Attor-
ney to prove the unconstitutionality
of Bible reading without explanation.
Church and State must be kept
apart; but they should be friendly, not
antagonistic, to one another. And it
is at least an act of politeness on the
part of the State to have the Bible
read g without the notes or COM
ments,' and the Bible is the only link
between the State and the church.
A government without due regards
to the Bible is a failure, and the ter
rorism of France in 1893 and 1874 is q
fit example of such government.
Respectfully submitted.

JOHANNESBURG, Feb. 22.-The latest
estimates place the number of deaths
from the explosion of 20 tons of dyna.
mite on a switch at Viedendorp, on
wednesday evening, at 100 and about
4OO persons were more or less seriously
injured. A number of the wounded
have succumbed to their injuries. The
white victims were chiefly of lower
class Beers. Whole families Of white
people were wiped out. Presi-
dent Kruger arrived here from
Pretoria. In speech he congrat-
ulated the inhabitants upon the
splendid manner in which they have
sunk all race feuds in the common en-
deavor to relieve the suffering. He
added that he earnestly trusted that the
good feeling which had arisen from a
common sorrow may have permanent
results, and .
Lead to q Much Better Feeling
in the future between the Beers and the
Uitlanders. The presidents remarks
have had good effect upon the foreign
population, and it lis believed that the
reforms in the internal administration
OF the Transvaal which have so long
been advocated by Uitlanders will soon
be inangurated in a form which will give
general satisfaction President Kruger
has been chosen president of the relief
committee, and he is directing the
work OF clearing the RACED ground at
Vledendorp and sheltBring the thou

Has a Grievance:
Editor Tribune;

Editor Trtbune;
In the last issue of the Willnlar
Argus there appeared a letter
over my signature. Tricky Birch
culled out a part of the letter
that directly referred to other
thieves; thieves that stole
twelve years hard labor from me.
If the unpublished part of the
letters had been "rot" in the
learned Birch's opinion he would
have published it as he says he
does ''rot" from the Tribune.
The first time Editor~Birch ran
for Superintendent of schools in
Kandiyohi Co.. I ardently sup
ported him, both by influenced and
vote, whilst those who coolly and
deliberately told me" theyintend-
ed to rob me-, were his oppon-
ents, claiming his opponent would
be elected and they would be re-
fused certificates. Ipersistedin
my course and aided the election
of Birch. Now he repays me by
culling my letters Of all express
sions in my own behalf. If a
poor poverty stricken widow
would steal a print dress pat
tern to cover her nakedness,
she would be arrested if found
out, and the learned editor would
note the fact. But a man con-
ceived by some mother can coolly
and deliberately, without cause
or provocation rob his brother,
kick him out in mid winter. and
the Argus Editor will not allude
to it for fear he would lose a sub
scription.
Men who steal thousands are
respected and if those it WAS
stolen from. ''kick,'' heed them
not. It is only rot.
