Judge Hawley OF the United states
circuit court related recently from the
bench a good story at the expense of
a distinguished lawyer and United
States senator, whose name was not
mentioned. This prominent member
of the bar was very absent-minded at
times. One morning he was on his
way to court in a great hurry, and
happene,g to overtake a friend, re-
marked: 81 dressed in such haste this
morning that ! forgot my watch" A
little further on he said: II wonder
II have time to go back and get it,"
and as he spoke he pulled out his watch
from his pocket mo, have not time,"
he concluded, after consulting the dial,
and he walked on. Nearing the court
house he hired a messenger to go for
the watch, paying him dollar for the
service. The messenger returned with
the information that the timepiece
could not be found, whereupon the
lawyer exclaimed, looking up from his
books and papers: THAT is very
stranger Then he took a swift glance
at his watch and said: ut makes no
difference, anyhow. l can do without
it, The judge is late and there is plen-
ty OF time" And he paid the messen-
ger another dollar.

January. Constance should DO thank
ful to us all her days for opposing her
absurd transendentalism about congo
niality and mutual attraction and the
like puerile nonsense. What n wreck
she would have made Of her happiness
had she been left to pursue the course
dictated by her own caprices! / hope,
Margaret, that we shall not have to
combat the like errors in our daugh-
tiers when they grow up"
Constance had a fund of strong
common sense in spite of her crudely
eXtravagant theories upon certain sub
jects," rejoined Mrs. Romano. Thanks
to it, and, as you justly observe, 10
our counsels, she has married better
than any other young woman I know
Yes, | can ask no more enviable lot for
our girls than one like hers"
According to these irrefragable au-
thorities, then, our heroine had steered
clear of the rock upon which so many
of her age and sex have split; kept out
OF the current that would have strand
ed her, high and forlorn, upon the bar
rem headlands of celibacy; had, vjrtu-
ously eschewing Crude" instinct, and
heart promptings, and natural laws (it
only, in Mrs. Romaine's creed, for the
guidance Of beasts. and birds, and
other irrational things), rendered just
and graceful obedience to the equitable
principle prescribed and practiced Ey
the autocrats of the best circles"
These burning and shining boacons
cease not, night nor day, to warn off
the impetuous young from the rigors
and desolation of Scylla, and cast such
Elusive glare upon Charybdis as makes
its seething rapids seem a Pacific OF
delicious calm.

The glorious results of this seasons
harvest of golden grain will pour a
stream of sound money into the poclI-
cts of every Dakota farmer.
South Dakota has thousands of acres
of choice farming and ranch land lying
east of the Missouri river, and within
one days ride from Chicago or Milwau-
kee which can now be bought reason
ably cheap, but which before the end
of another year may be advanced in
price.
The stock raising industry in South
Dakota is profitable, and eastern capt.
tai is now being invested in cattle and
sheep growing in that state.
Diversified farming, the growing of
live stock, and the products of the
dairy, are placing South Dakota fore
most in the ranks of the successful
western states.
Those desiring full information on
the subject, and particularly those who
wish to seek new home or purchase
land, are requested to correspond with

For twenty years she has been afflicted
with the various forms of kidney COM

She was often confined TO her bed for more
than two weeks at time suffering untold
agony. She has doctored constantly, and
/ have paid ont in doctors bills for her
alone as much as $4,000, and then her re-
lief was only such that she would be able
to be around for spell. Some time ago
she felt the symptoms of another attack
coming on, such as a pain in through the
kidneys and back. / hardly know what
induced me TO get n box of Doan's Kidney
Pills, instead of sending for the family
physician; however, l got some and she
commenced their use. 1t was a surprise
TO us both to see their action; the attack
was warded off, and she continued taking
them with marked improvement each day
of their use. She is better now than she
has been in years. the pain in the back and
others in the kidneys have entirely gone
