Reservoir Investigations.

The Fargo Argus says: BY act of
congress OF January 10, 1897, reservoirs
were provided for on the public domain
for watering live stock. These entries
can be made by men, women or child
rem and corporations, there being no re-
strictions as to age or citizenship and no
limit to the number of entries which may
be made by any M person or individ-
uals. In view of the unprecedented rush
of settlers to North Dakota the cattlemen
in the western part of the state have COM
mcnced taking up the land under this
act, in some instances with a view o pro-
tecting their ranges and in other in.
stances for the purpose of specializing in
accomplishments which Uncle Samuel
does not propose to allow and, therefore,
Special Agent Lounsberry has been di.
rected to investigate and report on this
class of entries.
The Bismarck Tribune says: The
danger of working a good thing toe
strongly is proven in the forthcoming in.
vestigation Of the reservoir filings by
special agents of the government. The
fact that 900 of them were made in the
Bismarck land district since the law
went into effect, led the government to
believe that there would be a good many
reservoirs on the prairies of North Dako.
IA IF the law vvcre l;,ad ~ En- ;e

tries were made for purposes OF spccula.
ton, others to add to stock ranges and
others by recent arrivals from the old
country, who wanted to keep land in this
manner, until friends or relatives could
come over and file homcstcads. At any
rate, it is probable that few of those who
made reservoir filings intended to live UP
to the law, and as a result it is probable
that many of the entries will be Cancelled

Appendicitis.

The vermiform appendix, inflamma-
tion of which constitutes appendicitis, is
a curious little offshoot from the large
intestine near the point where it joins
the small intestine. 1t is a hollow tube
about as thick as a lead-pe neil, from an
inch to several inches in length. which
communicates with the cavity of the
large intestine but is closed at the free
extremity. Nobody knows definitely what
its use is, and many think it has no use
at all.
1t is a popular belief that inflammation
of the appendix is often caused by the
Judgement in it of a grape-seed or some
similar little body, but as a matter Of fact
this seldom occurs, and no one need de-
prive himself of a delicious and nourish-
ing fruit from any such fear.
There are probably very few persons
of middle age who have not had appen-
dicitis, but fortunately they did not know
it. 1t is only when the inflammation be-
comes severe.. and involves the parts
about the appendix, that violent symp-
toms appear, and this occurs in only a
small proportion of cases.
The disease is more frequent with the
young than with the middle-aged or old.
In mild cases the only symptom is a
slight dull or collicky pain in or'near the
right groin. When the inflammation is
more severe, or extend to the neighbor-
ing parts, the symptoms become more
pronounced. There is a sharp pain in
the abdomen, signs of dyspepsia-loss of
appetite, nausea or vomiting, and bowel
disturbances-are present, and there is
often slight fever.
In the most serious cases a. sudden,
violent pain occurs, there is marked fe-
yer, and the patient is depressed and
presents all the signs of being very i'll
Hiccough is often a distressing symptom.
The treatment of appendicitis is one
of the points upon which doctors disagree.
Some believe that in nearly every case a
cure will follow rest in bed, a milk diet,
cold applications to the abdomen and
sedative- remedies. Others assert that
an operation is necessary in every in
stance, and that this should be performed
the instant a diagnosis of appendicitis
is made, before serious symptoms appear.
The proper course here, as elsewhere,
is doubtless the middle one, for in many
cases an operation is absolutely necessary
to save life, while in others recovery
will take place without subjecting the
patient to this serious risk. In any case
a sufferer from appendicitis is in danger,
and should be under the constant care
Of his physician.-Youths Companion.

Be A GOOD BOY! eooDRM

How oft in my dreams ! so back to the day
When l stood at our old wooden gate
And started to school in full battle array,
Well armed with a primer and slate,
And as the latch fell I thought myself free
And gloried, l fear, on the sly,
TIL l heard a kind voice that whispered to ma:
'Bo a good boy! Goodby!"
"Be a good boy! Goodbye 1t seems
They have followed me all these years;
They have given a form to my youthful dreams
And scattered my foolish fears;
They have staid my feet on many a brink,
Unseen by a blinded eye,
For just in time I would pause and think:
"Be a good boyl Goodbyl"
Oh, brother Of mine, in the battle Of life,
Just starting or nearing its close,
This motto aloft, in the midst Of the strife,
Will conquer wherever it goesl
Mistakes you will make, for each Of US errs,
But, brother, just honestly try
To accomplish your best. In whatever occurs
B a good boy! G%oodby!"
