Give the Boys a Chance.

Lots Of boys are driven from the farm
by the treatment they receive there. You
can not work a boy from ten to fourteen
hours day, begrudging him day Of
and deprivinR him Of an. opportunity to
make little money, and hsys : little fun
ON his own account, ana then q psct that
he is going TO stay on the farm. Boys are
are not built that way. But If you treat
them right, encourage their originality
hnd foster their development and the do.
ing Of things for themselves the average
boy is level. headed enough to realize the
advantages offered 81 rural life. Some
fathers make hssgmastake Of trying to
drive boys instead Of working with them
or fail 70 recognize the rapidity with
which bright boy gains knowledge and

quiokly he, may know more OF have better

S safir to Put On Record.

1t has come to notice in the register
of deeds of6b that there many persons
carrying theft patents of land, satisf,c-
tions or release Of mortgages and other
valuable land apers, which should be re-
corded, otherwise lost would bring much
trouble to their titles. A gentleman came
in lately to thas ofice with homestead
patent to record which he had packed
around in his pocket for three or four
years without understanding the necessity
of recording the same. Papers of the
above character eau he placed upon the
books for record which may take few
honrs, and then returned to the party who
brought or sent it in. II party loses the
original afterwards he still has the county
books in which copy of the instrument
appears, to show title.

STATE BOARD OF HEALTH.

To the P,eas and Public of North Dakota:
small pox is prevalent at the present
time in twenty-eight states, in the District
of Columbia, in Porto Rico, ana is endemic
(prsssnt always) in the Philippine islands
from whence we may naturally expect the
germs of this loatheome and much to be
dreaded disease to he carried to our state
in spite of the utmost vlligance on the
part of tho Quarantine and Inspection
departments of various cities where per-
sons and articles of commerce are continu-
ally being landed. In addition. the con-
s,ant'y increasing tide of Immigration
from foreign countries where smallpox
commonly exists, especially to our north
western states at this time. render ns
peculiarly liable to aserious outbreak OF
his disease at any time unlesa proper
precautions are taken. In view OF these
facts. aud further that smallpox exists IN
noighboring states of Montana and Mime
sofa and is prevalent IN two counties OF
this state-thls board OF deai'u FeSoe
nizing the emergency that may at any
time arise do hereby y::solemply and earnest
iy urge upon all citizens of this statesthe
wisdom Of thorough Vaccination and where
.uecessary revacinatlon. Vaccination as
preventive of small -pex has passed beyond
the arRumeptative stage and needs no
de:enee. In the absence of proper vac
ciration the power of physicians to cure
or even control this "most terrible OF all
ministers of DEATH is almost valueless.

Nez Pe1ces Lands.

Only lOO miles southeast of the fertile
grain fields of eastern Washington, BE-
tween tho clearwater and Salmon rivers,
lies in what was known as the Nez Perces
Indian country. ouly recently thrown open
to settlement aud mining. Since the cay '
sixties when $3s, 100000 was washed out of
the rich proers of the Clearwater aid Sal
mon rivers it has been tradition among
miners that some day great gold dis.
coveries would be made in the Nez Perces
country. The enormous cost of transpor-
tation, remoteness from civilization and
consequent posiblity ef carrying on large
mining operations left the rich, quartz
ledges-the mother-lodes of the placers-
untouched. Almost simultaneously with
the completion of the Nprthern Pacific's
Lewiston extension fro4 Spokane. came
the announcement Of the discovery in the
Buffalo Hump range of immense lodges Of
gold bearing quartz which. cropping out
above the, surface. and twenty feet or more
in with, extend in different directions for
many miles. The rapid extension of the
Clearwater line of the Northern Pacific,
now building along that river from Lewis
ton, will soon throw hisheretofore almost
inaccessible country open to capital, and
modera machinery with American grit
will do the rest. For fuller iformation
and new map of this region send two

Minn., or address any General or District
Passenger Agent for the Northern Pacific
Railway.
