The Press item published on
Sept. 28 showing that North Da-
kota has $500 brands-twice as
many as South Dakota-Stark
county in the lead-has gone the
rounds of the state papers; but it
is noted that when our Mandan
brothers copied this item they
changed it just a little so that
their readers should not be aware
of the fact that Stark was the
banner stock county of NORTH
Dakota.

Value Of Mao'suIfe,

The Supreme Courts have decided
that the life of the average man is worth
Just what he is able to euru. A mans
earnings depend to a great extent upon
his health, and it is always within his
power to improve his condition. The
stomach is the measure of health and
strength. Every man may be bright,
active and happy, if his digestion is nor

also correspondence by mail concerning

The wraveI oure.

Under what conditions il travel OF
benefit IN the treatment Of mental
diseases? This question was under
discussion az recent meeting Of the
MedicO-P Psychological association. DR..
Savage, physician in charge Of mem
tai disease at Guys, held that to
move patient suffering from Sc
vAre mental disorder, either from o
sea voyage or other form Of travel
ing, was very inadvisable. The fresh
surroundings very often caused wcari-
ness where the need was for absolute
rest. On the ether hand, be recog-
nized that a sen voyage might do
good 10 one suffering from melan-
cholia due to q love affair or to q
failure at examination. Sir. Hermann
Weber agreed with DR.. Savage's opiA
ion, and referred to the case Of o
goodman who had become mentally
affected. 1t was believed that he
might recover il he were seated on
four-in-hand. The experiment was
tried and succeeded. DR.. Robert
Jones took the view that sea voyages
do not always benefit convalescents.
He said he knew Of case Of o mem
tally afflicted patient who was or
dered voyage. When Marseilles was
reached the patient had a delusion
that his attendant was insane, and de-
0ained to 60 further with him. Lon
