Colds.

The quickest relief, for a cold,
is by SCOTS emulsion of cod-liver
oil.
w all have colds, you can try it
and see. You will find the edge
taken off in a night; and, in three
or four days, you'll be wondering
whether that cold amounted to
anything anyhow.
That's relief. If you tackle it
quick, the relief is quick and CON-
plete, if you wait till the cold is in
full possession of head and lung,
why, of course, the relief is quick
if it comes in a week.
A little emulsion won't clear
and restore your whole breathing
machine in a minute; don't be
looking for miracles.

Though we may think thee far away;
Yet, we shall miss thee, sorely miss thee,

Well see the meaning of grief's token,
Some ~time-when our life's race is run.

And aims in life DO high as thine,
With shades as soft as whom life left thee.

Lines written in sisterly remembrance or BE
ney Of Fargo, N. D., who passed away int
the Great Beyond January 9Th, 1Nl.l
Not at the hour when dawn was breaking,
summons came from the Court most high
Nor when the star of dusk was shaking
Radiance DER the western sky.
Brought when life's noontide sun shone brigh
est.
Waited on breezes of midday's rays,
Summoned from earth and its light of the pre-
Yielding to natures stern, strange ways.
Calling him home from earthly duties,
Bidding him pause-for final rest;-
And he listened quietly-knowing
He did through this life-his best.
Was he not born for living here.
All! was he kindred with the SKYE
Yet,-yet-we held him all SO dear
We could not think him formed to die!
He. the kind soother of early days,
Fond sharer of my former joys,
| Whose shadows made brighter still the years,
And memories of youth employ.
When primary lessons brightness shed
On fields of knowledge-golden rule;
In happy musings first he led
His brother.heart so warm with truth,
Brow bright with honesty's noble ray.
He was the favorite since my YOUTH.
Oh why! then, was he torn away ~
We marked his manly soul expand
In blooms of genius nursed by will;
| While science with a fostering land
Pointed his way to knowledge hill"
We saw his gradual opening mind
Enriched by natural virtues here
Enlightened, social, and refined
In friendship firm, in love sincere.
Though in my maiden years he reft
OF lender links by nature tied;
Though hope deceived and pleasures left,
l still had hope-true hope will stay,
Fen after sunset of delight;
So like the star hat ushers day,
We scarce expect it heralds night!
How oft LIES seeming strife
Ny weary soul-in need of rest.
Near fainting from the waves of life,
Found harbor in that brothers breast!
Such was our Ben. We loved him well:
Fresh were the hopes that fate denied!
We loved-but oh, we could not tell
How deep-how dearly-tiu he died!
Yet. such is life meath moonbeams' smile
Its little billOw heaves its heart
And Frame. and sparkles for a while
And murmuring-then subsidies to rest.
We mortals-sports of bliss and care
Do rise on life's eventful sea-
And having swelled a moment there
Thus-melt into-eternity!
Well profit by each inspiration
Ben left behind of purest thought,
His hopes, and all his resolutions,
We're guarded well, and manly wrought.
Long be the fame of memory found
Alive within thy social class,

LAND COMMISSIONER.
He Visits Devils Dake With a View to
Placing School Lands on
the Market.

AASAoS SuS AN1oNo VII
the Market.
D. j. Laxdal, state land commits
sioner, of Cavalier, was in the city
Wednesday and Thursday of this
week and with Chairman of County
Commissioners Mccormick and
Acting Auditor Bice, made an ap-
praisal of. the state lands in the
county and raised the valuation
thereof from about $3.50 to an
average of $1,000 per acre. This
reappraisement was made for
rental purposes only. There has
been no appraisal of state lands
since 1897 and land in this county
and especially in the northern part
thereof, has increased in value
very much, since the year mention
ed. The appraisal of $3.50 per
acre made the minimum rental
price per quarter Of state land only
$500 which. was entirely too low
on account of the fact that there
is SO much state land in the county
there was little competition and
scarcely ever any bidding up, of
the rented lands. The new ap-
p%raisal will raise the rental price
of lands to about $500 or $1,000
per quarter which is quite reason
able. OF course state lands can
not be rented for agricultural pur-
poses-only for grazing or haying
use. MI. Laxdal states that there
has been many applications from
this county for the purchase of
state lands but that on account of
SO much snow being on the ground
it will be impossible now to ap-
praise the land with any degree of
accurateness, so that a spring sale
of lands in this county will hardly
be made by the state this year.
When a sale is made, board of
appraisers consisting of the State
land commissioner, county sup
erintendent of schools and county
auditor, must tirstgo over the land
and place a price on it, and in case
this valuation is over $1,000 and
the board thinks the land will sell
for upwards of or, at least $1,000
per acre, the land may be advertised
for sale, after being SO recommend
ed by the state board of univer-
sity and school lands. Mr.. Laxdal
anticipates a large land sale Of
state land next fall and states il
will be a great benefit to the county
as the state land will then become
useful, settled up, and it's owners
will have to pay taxes thereon.
whereas now, this land is really a
detriment to the county.
