DR.. J. D. Pitblado, special
quarantine officer for Mime
apolis. returned Yesterday after
a weeks sojourn at Redfield, S.
D., and in vicinity, establishing
an effective smallpox quarantine.
"When | arrived there" said
DR.. Pitblado, II found twenty
eight homes in which there was
at least one very bad case Of
smallpox which has been passed
upon locally as chickenpox.
Redfeld is repeating Mime
apolis experience. When | got
through with the place | had
every suspected home quaran-
tined and the rest Of the popula-
ton rendered reasonably safe
from the disease. But owing to
the length of time during which
travel through Redfield has
been permitted since the disease
made itself manifest. the whole
country must be full of it. l
met with the most hearty sup
port on the part Of the author
ties of Redfield and surrounding
towns, however, and believe the
worst of the smallpox epidemic
is over-Minneapolis Tribune.

Perfect Economic Health

Our whole trade with the world has
immensely increased we have passed
Great Britain in the decade, and are
now the first exporting nation: we are
buying less and less of foreign food
and finished foreign manufactures: we
are buying more Indispensable crude
materials for manufacturing: we are
selling more and more finished Amer
lean manufactures in the markets OF the
world, and we are selling absolutely
more, though relatively less, food
products. These facts point to a con-
dition of perfect economic health and
vigor in America. They are exactly
the results which have been prophesied
by every great American Protectionist
from Washington, Adams and Clay,
to Lincoln, Blaine, Dingley and Nc
Kinley. Boston "Journal.

Comedy in Circuit Court.

webster World:
Judges are supposed to be
serious individuals and quite de-
void of any humorosity. Judge
Campbell, however, has drawn
upon him a cloud of suspicion
from which he never will emerge.
Soon after the court convened
Juror Slrissel winked at the
judge and asked for leave of
absence on account of "grip. -
The Judge winked in return and
granted the request. The juror
returned in due time with an ex-
tensive and comprehensive smile
on bis face. He winke ed at the Judge
and whispered hoarsely "Twins!"
OF course his honor gave the
whole thing away and Juror
Strissel had to set EN- up some
what. Let it be remembered
that the Judge adjourned court
about a week ago last Thurs
day on account of "grip" and
went home to Aberdeen. He
made speedy recovery and re-
turned the following Monday.
Last Monday he adjourned court
for good, cautioning Juror
Strissel to Look after the twins
carefully, and and advising Juror
Langland (who, by tie way, is
an old bachelor) to go home and
do equally well by his country.
Then his honor hied himself
away to Aberdeen and just
twenty-seven minutes after his
arrival he telephoned back that
Mrs. Campbell had just present
ed him with twin boys. 1t may
not be appropriate to term all
this undignified conduct a com
edy of errors, but it approaches
dangerously near the limit Of be
ing comedy in circuit court.

SCHOOL NOTES
LuELLA CUNNINGhAM. Editor

No school Friday on account OF
Washingtons birthday.
We are glad to greet Miss Florence
Haines who was with us last year, but
did not return till last Monday.
Lawyer Lindquist showed his smil.
ing face in the high school and made
application to the civic class for ad.
mission.
Mr.. Burkhead has excused us from
individual orations for while that we
may give more attention to reviews
preparatory to state examination.
Quite number of the high school
pupils have recently successfully pass
ed some of the required studies on
questions furnished by the state
superintendent.
February 14th, two little girls, arm
in arm, with very happy looking faces
marched through the high school
room up to the superintendents desk
and gave him very beautiful valen-
tine made by the kinder-gartners of
Groom L." every child having some
part in the making. Mr.. Burkhead
is very proud of his valentine and
says he is going to keep it among his
choice mementos.
Self denial is often necessary to the
accomplishment of any great purpose
in life. 1t person desires to live
long and we'll he must deny himself
all present indulgences injurious to
mind and body. If he wishes to ac-
quire an education he must forego
many dissipating amusements. He
must concentrate his energies upon the
course he would pursue. He cannot
be everywhere and everything to every
body and everything.

The St. Paul Dispatch, refer
ring to the Hamilton Day trial,
very forcibly says:
The lesson of it all is one that any
young man treading the dangerous
path Of dissipation may we'll take to
heart for his own betterment. The
participants were all young men, who
were putting their future to risk, in
viting disaster and ruin, under the
delusion that they were seeing life and
tasting its pleasures. They were TAX
ing the pace that kills. One of them,
Day, reached the end quickly. Anoth-
er, Hamilton, if he survive his punish
ment, will, even if he abandon the
path, have his life clouded with the
disgrace of conviction for having TAX
en- q fellow BEINGS life. The other
participants will have their lives
shadowed with the participation in the
debauch that ended so tragically.

es of dissipation is ruin.

tions, which were done after due con-
sultation with Dr's. Karn and acotel.
We wish to further state that DIR. Krie-

which untrue story has been circulated.
We wish further to state that we were
all fully satisfied with DR.. Kriesel's 8
charges and with everything he did
for us, and any story to the effect that
his charges were more than above
stated is untrue in every particular.
