on the chances and won. Recently she re-
turned, heavy laden with the precious
metal, aid sole proprietor of a claim on
Red Water Greek, for which she refused
an offer of $4,000. Probably she was
foolish to do this. for The place appears ~
nothing more than a Pocket, from which

DAYTIME Rest.

All women who can spare two hours In
the afternoon TO themselves should cast Off
all hvusehoi Il an d social cares for this period
and enjoy a complete relaxation In a bath
and rest an hour previous to dressing. 1t
is not absolutely necessary that an hour
should be spent In resting In q recumbent
position Working women should make
some sacrifice &c obtain a regular rest at
MIDDAY. il only for few minutes While
they may not be able to spend as much
time as women of leisure. it is compara-
lively easy to contract the habit of ten
minutes cap directly after dinner, and
this short da ytime rest will be OF more
value than an hours sleep at night. After
the habit OF the daytime nap is once estab-
llshed. the moment the bath is over and
the tired WON an dons her night attire she
will easiI y fall asleep, aud such Is the con-
troll of the mind over the body that IL she
locks at watch or clock and firmly de
termlnes TO awaken at q certain hour she
Is quite sure 10 find herself wide awake
at that tiue.-Evening Wisconsin.

Infant Sa gacity.

'.out OF the mouths OF habes cOmeth
wisdom" These may not be the exact
words, bot words of similar puTpUrt are
tn be found somewhere bet ween the lids
Of the good book. The truth Of the say
Iug was demonstrated IN an omaha home
one day last week. the day in question
being the one on which there was a heavy
thunder storm.
In the home In question is a five-year-
old la q who has q brother and a sister who
are older than himself. The elder chill
dren were greatly frightened st the gath
erlag clouds, fla shlng lightning and roll
ing thun Ter, an d were making great out
cries. The ve-yeaT-old seem ed to enjoy
tie gathering storm. but his enjoyment
was some what maTTed by the bewailings
OF his brother and sister. Finally he
turned to them, and exclaimed:
80, shut up your hawlin. Don't you
s'pOse God knows his busness?''
If some OF the older ones would exercise
a little wisdom of this kind there would
be less trembling and meanings when a
thunder storm approaChes.-Omah ha World

A HALFWAY Confession.

If man gets religion he ought to get it
all the way through, and hold no reserva-
tions. Al revival in \ biene the other
day a man got up and confessed that he
had been in the pententiary for theft, and
that after gaining his liberty he had gone
to stealing again. Then with a great deal
of uRction he commenced to detail the
stealings he had practiced upon the people
Of the neghborhood, and at last sat down
with the remark that having told all and
cleared his conscience he felt that he could
ask God and man for forgiveness. There
was a man in the audience who ad been
robbed OF S25, and sonnet hing dropped by
the penitent made it almost absOiuteiy ' sure
that he had been the robber II made the
man mad that this act had not been de-
tailed in the confession. So he went out
and hunt ed up the sheriff and had the pen
itent arrested As we said before, a con
vert ought to tell II all when he goes in to

He Was Not a Farmer,

The horny-handed son OF toll who had
taken q seat at one OF the tables in the
first-class restaurant had a Western ansas
look about him, but he was not entirely
paraivzed by his surroundings, and when
the waiter brought him a slab of broileti
ham for which he had been waiting pa,
tiently for fifteen minutes or more, he had
the presence OF mind to utter protest.

the plate and started back with 1t, NUT

Nerves Of Smell This organ is q long
ribbon-like membrane and hangs from
the roof OF the Nasal passage in folds, as
seen In Fig. q When this condition be-
comes chronic, or permanent, it Is called
CATARRn. The folds become swollen
into a solid mass, 30 the air IN breathing
cannot circulate between them hence
the loss Of smell. TheCatsrrhal microbe
soon makes its appearance, causing q
multitude of small ulcers fetueen these
folds. The pus from thee Sslce-s Is very
poisonous and soon impf knaees the
whole mucous surface of N nose, head
and throat with the diseasa. Medical
works show cases where the tonslIs have
become a corrupt mass of ulcers. Il not
infrequently involves thewholeb bronchial
passage to the lungs, causing consump-
ton and death. 1t viii be seen that
nothing can radically cure Catarrh which

Wall Street Looks Upon Him
AS President Winters
Successor.

Tuesdays Minneapolis Times
contains the following telegram
from New York:
"The following story from to-
days ''Ticker" gives the views Of
Wall street on Northern Pacific
matters. A Times correspondent
interviewed several prominent
men and all agreed that the present
situation is strained and must be
relieved speedily. The "Ticker'
statement is as follows:
"The question of Northern
Pacific presidency is not likely to
remain long unsettled. Advlces
from St. Paul make it clear that
discipline is suffering good deal
from the prevailing uncertainty
and as u consequence business is
being at least temporarily lost. 1t
is natural that this should be the
case, for both shippers and
employees are DESTROYS of find
ing out where they are. Mr..
Morgan will start for home
some time early in June,
and it is supposed that shortly
after his arrival successor to Mr..
Winter will be chosen. Tho best
information is that Mr.. Lamont
will be the man, although St. Paul
gossip speaks of Crawford Living
stone in connection with the posi-
ton. Northern Pacific interests
are very hopeful. The crop situa'
ton has never looked so well as
this year. The physical condition
Of the property is good at all
points. The outlook for business
in the next two months is, how
eyer, not very bright. After that
time the harvesting Of the spring
wheat will make large earnings,
supposing that no disaster over
takes the CROP
The news of a temperature of 26
degrees in the Dakotas and parts
Of Minnesota last night created no
little comment on the street, and
the effects of the cold on crops,
and as consequence upon railway
earnings, were interestedly can
vassed."

OVER "NO MANS LAND"
An Interesting Tangle Be-
tween Cass and Grow
Wing Counties. 81.

Cass county Is in tangle over her
county officers and the strip of terri
tory, which Crow Wing county ia
trying to TAXI, said Friday'sSt. Paul
Dispatch.
This strip has been in igation for
a couple Oi yea RS now, and has come
to be known as mo Mans Land" s..
A man from that strip was elected
county auditor, and now the ques-
ton iis whether or not he can serve
legally, and. ON the other hand. II
the people of Cass comfy decide that
he must step out, and make room
for some one who lives outside Of
that strip. or further over into the
county. there Is danger that the
Crow Wing people will take the
matter up, and have it construed as
an admission On the part of the Cass
county people that this strip Of ter
ritory does not belong to them.
Representative Hartshorn, who,
since the legislature adjourned, has
moved to Walker, the county seat Ut
the new county, was In the city Sat-
u, day consulting with the attorney
general and the attorneys In the
Cass-CrOw Wing fight in regard to-
the matter. He says the new audit
or will probably retire voluntarily p
and they will settle the matter with
ONr taking 1t into the courts.
