All doctors have tried to cure Catarrh by the use of powders, acid gases, in- halers and drugs in paste form. Their powders dry up the mucous membranes causing them to crack open and bleed. The powerful acids used in the inhalers have entirely eaten away the same membranes that their makers have aimed to cure, while pastes and oint- ments cannot reach the disease. An old and experienced practitioner who has for many years made close study and specially of the treatment of Ca tarrh, has at last discovered treat ment which when faithfully used, not only relieves at once, but permanently cures Catarrh, by removing the cause, stopping the discharges, and curing all inflammation. It is the only remedy known to science that actually reaches the afflicted parts. This wonderful remedy is known as "Snuffles the Guaranteed Catarrh Cure" and is sold at the extremely low price of one dollar each package containing internal and external medicine sufficient for full months treatment and everything nec- essary to its perfect use.
 'Snuffles" is the only perfect Catarrh Cure ever made and is now recognized as the only safe and positive cure for that annoying and disgusting disease. It cures all inflammation quickly and permanently and is also wonderfully quick to relieve Hay Fever or Cold in the Head.
 Catarrh when neglected often leads to Consumption-"Snuffles" will save you if you use it at once. It is no ordi- nary remedy, but a complete treatment which is positively guaranteed to cure Catarrh in any form or stage if used according to the directions which ac- company each package. Don't delay but send for it at once, and write full particulars as to your condition, and you will receive special advice from the discover of this wonderful remedy regarding your case without cost to you beyond the regular price of "Snuffies" the Guaranteed Catarrh Cure"

Fargo Call: Attorney M. A. Hill
dreth filed papers in the clerk OF
courts office yesterday in action which
he is bringing against the Northern
Pacific Railway Co., in behalf of
Michael Corrigan, to recover damages
amounting to $4,000 for injuries re-
ceived DO Corrigan last fall, which re-
suited in the amputation OF one of his

a bad order" car which was standing
on a siding. While employed in re-
pairing the car, Mr.. Corrigan was
forced to get underneath it, in order
to do his work properly and that
while so engaged, other cars were
switched in upon the track the "bad

A News Service Without Parallel.

There is ample justification TOR the
claim made by the Chicago Record
Herald that it's readers enjoy every
day in the week, Sundays included, a
news service that is without a parallel
in range and completeness. The rea-
SOn is ohviOus-the combination or the
varied and extensive facilities OF the
two great dailies, The Chicago Record
and the Chicago Times-Herald. In
addition to the independent news
facilities of both papers, The Record
Herald receives the complete news
service of The New York Herald, Inc
New York Tribune and the Associated
Press; and when it is considered that
its news columns are supplemented oy
all the special features so popular in
The Chicago Record and The Chicago
Times-Herald, it will be seen that
The Record-Herald holds a unique
place among the great newspapers OF
the United States.

PRETTY OHIO GIRL DECEIVED
Sheep IIerder Misrepresented lIim-
self and Girl Returned With
Papa.

Dickinson, N. D., May ia ro-
mantle affair came to light today
when it was learned that Dolly Bress-
ler of Coshocton, Ohio, a fine looking
young miss of p summers, had come
to Dickinson to marry J. P. Moon, a
man who works on the sheep ranch OF
w. T. Hendren, head OF the Hendren
& Tallant company Of Duluth.
Miss Bressler said that Mr.. Moon
had represented himself to her as be-
ing wealthy and from the picture he
had sent her she took him to be rather
good looking. But when Dolly came
to see the plainsman of g. winters, she
decided she did not want to marry,
and being without money, she asked
her late correspondent to let her have
enough money to pay her car fare back
to the parental roof. Mr.. Moon said
this was not according to the contract
and he: would not advance a cent,
whereupon Dolly wrote her father,
who arrived from the east today and
took his venturesome daughter home.
Mr.. Bressler, who is a small manu-
facturer of soft drinks in Coshocton,
said that his daughter had stolen
away from home, and he guessed she
had learned a lesson. Mr.. Moon feels
badly over his loss of the girl but has
returned to his tlOckS.

High winds prevailed in all parts Of

grain than the frost did. In some
places, grain that was up, was blown
out of the ground, and in other places

was filed with dust and grit that cut
down the grain that was up, doing

the injury will be permanent.

Committee of One to Confer With
With Well DriIler Regarding
Artesian Well.
Dog Owners Will be Compelled to
Paw a Tax on All CANNES Run
ming at Large.
Two Judgments Against Chds. L.
Mitchell Will be Satisfied
by City.

The matter of deepening the city
we'll was fully discussed at the meet
ing of the city council Monday night
and it was decided to have a member
Of the water committee leave for
South Dakota to confer with a well
driller named Holton, who had signi-
fled some willingness to do the job.
Anordinance providing for tax of
81 on all he-dogs and of So on all She
dogs was read and passed its first
reading. The ordinance refers to dogs
running at large and provides that a
dog promenading without a collar
handled by the city auditor will be
placed in durance vile for "a hours, at
the end of which time, if the owner
does not call and settle, the dog may
be killed in any manner except by
poisoning.
The city attorney stated that Chas.
L. Mitchell had years ago, while act
ing under authority of the then coun-
Gil, cut certain wire fence placed
across road leading into the city.
Two judgments had been secured
against Mr.. Mitchell and the city
Jointly in the sums of $3.50 and S29
and he thought the matter should be
adjusted in some way AS the city
has a Judgment against Dunstan for
$3.50, it is thought that this can be
easily accomplished and the city attor-
ney was empowered to do the neces-
sary work.
A. Steinbach appeared before the
council and made plea for better
roads leading into the city from the
northwest. He stated that the coun-
Gil had been considering the matter
for II years and now it is about time
something was done. He said one
man had placed fence across the
public highway. Mr.. Steinbach be-
lieved the proper thing to do was to
cut the wires Of the fence and arrest
the owner if he attempted to obStruct
the road again.
The city auditor reported that the
plumbers Of the city had not secured
licenses although they should have
done SO April /. The matter was re-
ferred to the license committee.
The bill of D. c. Wood for clothing

was referred to that board.
Mayor Rose announced that at pres
