CUSHING.
Notes About the Busy Little
Place.

James Carwell writes from Cushing
to the Staples World:
There are now thirty-fve men en-
ployed in connection with s. Dow
er's milling and lumber interests at
this point, and this season he has
added cordwood to his operations,
and has shipped 1000 cords to date.
The saw mill has a capacity Of
10000 feet in ten hours, and the
Chief music at Cushingis the soprano
OF the saw and the baritone of the
planer. Lumber is shipped at the
rate OF half dozen cars a week, and
from this point 60 800 carloads Of
wood and 100 cars OF railway ties
annually.
Sampson Dover, the father Of this
place and much larger places, owns
100 acres of which $50 are in cult
walton, and he has thorough bred
Jerseys and Durhams and Shrop-
shire Downs sheep. Although his
home is at Staples, his chief inter-
ests are in connection with enter
prises outside, which are now chiefly
managed by his sons; sterling, en-
ergetic young business men. The
manager at Gushing, Bert Dover, is
a bright young business man with
the family traits of honesty and re-
finement.

10 Make the Home Attractive

-Four special pages in the February

attractive. One treats OF "The Draping
and Dressing OF Beds," another OF
buying and Arranging Bric-a-brac;'' a
third tells Glow to Make Attractive
Screens,' and fourth is on "Doing
Bamboo Work at Home.' The illustra-
tons make the task of following out the
instructions very easy one, so the
articles are certainly practical and
useful.

A CURIOUS OFFER.
Sewing Machine Company's Pc
culiar, UnexplainedPr Proposition.

Much discussion is rife over the
fact that the Singer Manufacturing
company, makers of the famous
sewing machines, propose to give
one hundred OF their latest improved
machines in exchange for an equal
number OF the oldest sewing ma
chimes, of any make, now in family
use in the United States. The award
is to be deter mined from the list of
applications sent to the company's
head Office in New York before
March 1, 1898.
This is no guessing contest re-
curing a payment, a subscription
or personal service OF any sort. II
you own an old sewing machine you
have only to send the requisite in
formation as to it's age in order to
be placed on the list and become a
competitor for a prize worth having.
1t costs absolutely nothing but a
postal card, which will surely bring
to your door the best sewing ma
chine in the world i'll exchange for
your old one, provided it proves to
be among the one hundred Oldest in
the list of applications made before
March 1, 1898. :at which date the
list will be closed.
With so many as one hundred
machines offered, any one with a
sewing machine over five or ten
years old stands good chance to
gain a new one.
The reputation OF the Singer
Manufacturing company for fair
dealing is we'll known; their Offices
are in every city, and our readers
may be we'll assured that they will
DO exactly whatssthey promise.
The free particulars ..sregarding
sending the information to New
York can BE- obtained from John
Olson, the Singer agent, in the
Vasaly block.

The new attorney general of the
United States, Mr.. Griggs, of New
Jersey, has the reputation of having
opposed everything demanded by
the organized labor of his state, but
little thing like that doesn't bother
Mr.. Mckinley. Griggs has been an
attorney for trusts. The antitrust
law will likely repose in innocuous
desuetude during his term.

FOUND DEAD.
Samuel Curtiss Found Dead in
a. Manger.

Staples Tribune (27th): Samuel
Curtiss was found dead in the manager
at his home in Thomastown Monday
evening. When his son left for town
his father was apparently as well as
usual. When he reached home in the
evening he was found lying dead in
the manger. Word was sent to the
coroner OF Wadena county who ar
rived there Tuesday morning and
held an inquest. The coroner found
that the unfortunate mans death
was caused by heart failure.
Tuesday afternoon Mr.. Curtiss'
father and mother. Mr.. and Mrs..
John Newport, OF Little Falls, and
MIR. Curtiss' youngest daughter
came to Staples on No. 5 to be pres
ent and assist at the funeral, which
was held today.
Mr.. Curtiss was about Sc years
old and leaves several children to
mourn his loss. He had been resi-
dent OF TEomastOwn about 9 years,
coming there from Little Falls.
This county is fortunate in being
heavily wooded, yet there are some
sections where farmers would find it
advantageous to take advantage OF
the state law to encourage tree
planting. A bounty OF $3.50 an
acre is offered, and at least one acre
must be planted, while no one per-
son can collect for more than ten
acres in year or for more than six
years. Any tree but the black To-
Gust may be planted. Last year
bounties we're paid to twenty-five
counties for planting 1924 acres.
The law has been in operation six
teen years. In that time more than
100000 acres have been planted in
trees.

A fact often overlooked, or not al

attributed to female weakness or womb
trouble of some sort.
The error is easily made and NAV be
as easily avoided by setting urine aside
for twenty-four hours; a sediment or
settling is evidence that your kidneys
and bladder need doctoring. If you
have pain or dull aching in the back,
pass water too frequently, or scanty
supply, with smarting or burning.
these are also convincing proofs of
kidney trouble. Ii you have doctored
