horse In manner similar to the kneel-
ing lesson. An ingenious harness
makes it possible for the trainer to
draw the horse down on soft bed Of
hay without injuring him. When. the
horse willingly lies down at the word
Of command, he is taught to sit upon
his launches and then is gradually
drilled into the other tricks that al
ways draw applause from children and
adults alike.
ut is usually an easy matter to teach
horse to stand upon a pedestal. to
waltz. rear on his hind legs and march
in unison with equine companions aft
ser these simple lessons are thoroughly
learned and the horse understands the
trainer is his friend and not his enemy.
The horse Of average intelligence
learns quickly as soon as he realizes
what Is required Of him. The main
requisite on the trainers part is pa
tience, and II a man hasn't got this.
and lots Of II, he had better keep out Of
the business. II he gets excited or Inn
patient and goes to hauling the horse
about unnecessarily, the animal is sure
to become uneasy and fretful. and q
little experience OF this kind viii spoil
him.
The better bred horse is the more
intelligence it has and the more apt 1t is
to make a good performer, provided 1t
has been handled properly from colt
hood. All high bred horses, however,
are nervous and require kind treat
ment in order to insure good results. -

!, NORTH DAKOTA BANKS.

The controller of the currency has
given out an abstract of the condition
of forty seven national banks in North
Dakota July 16. Compared with re-
turns of April 80, since which six new
banks have begun business, it shows
that the total resources increased
from ST., ,937 ,269 to $13,115,574. Loans
and discounts increased from 81, ,SS2.-
$50 to $S.403, ,719, and cash reserve de-
creased from $703.975 to $6o5. 1893, of
which gold holdings increased from
S2O3, 7S5 to $2O4,SOO; individual depos-
it's fell from $S.952, $50 to $S,S23, ,317,
and average reserve held fell from
26.26 to 1864 per cent.
Traffic men state that there is almost
certainty of another freight blockade
at the head of the lakes and in Twin
city terminals when the grain crop be-
gins to move. Freight traffic has al
ready reached such volume that they
are unable to see where there will be
enough surplus equipment to handle
the grain movement. The western
lines have added tremendous amounts
of rolling stock and motive power dur
ing the year, the Great Northern, the
Northern Pacific, the 500 and the Bur-
lington lines alone having secured
more than $50 additional locomotives
This is more than the entire motive
power of several important western
lines. The Great Western, during the
past six months, has placed orders for
sixty -three locomotives, and the
Northern Pacific within ten days has
received forty powerful machines to be
used exclusively in freight service.
These orders indicate the rapid rate at
which locomotive equipment of western
lines has increased. Grain cars have
been ordered by the thousand, and
throughout the year have been coming
west constantly, but even with this
immense increase of facilities for hand
ling freight, the supply of equipment
as whole is very little more than the
requirements Of the present traffic.

DO GHOSTS ExIsTp
Rev. Dr. Minot J. Savage is Certain

There was certain had been at Heidelberg University He was Of anything but an imaginative temp5rainent Tall and stalwart in build. ne haa reputa- mathematical. physical and electrical. He had returned home from abroad and so far as any body knew was in perfect health. He was at the Summer home of his mother. It was his habit after dinner to go out on the piazza and walk up and down while smoking his pipe. talking with anybody went up Co bed The next morning he went into his mothers room cheek in order to awaken her quietly. Then he said: Mother, I have something very sad o te besr You ssc ana tied and asked him what he was talking about. He said Mother. I mean just what l am saying. am going to die. and very soon
 When his mother. startled and troubled, pressed him for anexplanation, he said: Last night when l was walking up and down the
  up and down by my side. have received my call and am going to die The mother of course was seriously troubled and wondered whether anything might be the matter with him. She therefore sent for the doctor and told him the story. The doctor made care full examination. said there was nothing the matter, treated the whole thing as bad dream or hallucinatlon. told them to pay no attention to 1t and said that within a few days they would be laughing at themselves for letting such a thing worry them. The next morning the young man did not seem quite as well as usual, and the doctor was sent for second time. Again he said there was nothing the matter and tried to laugh them out of their fears.
 ''The third morning the young nan appeared in still poorer condition. and the third time the physician was summoned. He now dis covered a case of appendicitis. The young man was operated on and died in couple of days. From the time of the vision until his death not more than five days had gone by. Some time after this experience the mother visited psychic here In New York. She. made no previous appointment. but went as a per- feet stranger and waited her turn. The son claimed at once 10 be present and told his mother q whole series of very remarkable things which by no possibility could the psychic ever have known. Then in answer to the question: Who was it that you saw that night? (the question being purposeiy so framed as not to seem to refer to anybody out of the body), he at once replied, It was my father The father had been dead for some years, and the mother had been married again"

The Country's Pie Center.

Philadelphia North American.
 The pie center of the country is Brock ton, Mass. It claims all kinds of records, and from figures of it's industry it de- serves recognition. For pie-making and pie-eating. for big pies and little pies, for thin pies and thick pies, for light pies and heavy pies. it is willing to en- ter the arena against any city in the Union. barring noEe.
 Three factories alone turn out 365,000 pies every year, but this is only a small portion of the city's pie industry. The 10, GOO inhabitants consume about 5000 pies daily, or over 100000 each year. If laid m straight line. edge to edge. they would make a pie bicycle path from Bos- ton to Chicago. At 10 cents each, and they are worth more than that. Brocton con sumes $2.50 worth of pie per citizen each year.
 The champion piemaker of the town is boarding house keeper. Mrs. Viola ". King Her record last year was 5,695 pies. or about thirteen pies a day for every day in the year. The holder of second place in the piemaking industry is an other boarding house keeper, Mrs. Mar garet Caskin. propretress of the Empire House, who has 2,S4O pies to her credit.

When You Tell People to Quit Cotfe,

At least 15 people among my acquaint- ances have been helped or cured by leav- ing off coffee and using Postum Food Coffee in it's place. writes a little woman from Independence, la. "I will mention one case. Miss Cora -, l learned she was suffering from nervousness and con stipation and went to call on her. Found her in bed and she looked like a living skeleton, so wild and haggard that feared for her reason.
 l asked Cora if she was improving any. She said not but was gradually growing worse. The doctor was coming twice day and giving her a powerful nervine. She said, T am so miserable that I tell you privately if you don't get better soon l will end it all myself some day l told her not to talk that way for l believed it was something she ate or drank that caused the trouble and she might get well by making d change in her diet. I told her my own experience in leaving off coffee when 1 was in almost as bad shape as she, but as soon as l mentioned coffee I had fight on my hands. for sine insisted that coffee helped her and her mother backed her in it, saying that 1t was the only thing she did enjoy and she did not believe coffee hurt anyone
 l talked with them a long time and finally got Cora to agree to let me make a cup of Postum Food Coffee for her sup per. She was surprised that it was so good. Said she had heard it was terrible wishy-washy stuff. told her it was be- cause they did not follow directions in boiling it enough. She promised to use it faithfully for two or three weeks and if she was not better I would admit that I was wrong.
 1 went to see her again in about ten days and Cora met me at the door with smile and said, Ada your doctor Postum is the best doctor of them all. I can sleep all night, can eat heartily, and am grow ing stronger every day. Me and all the rest of us use Pestum now in place of coffee
 The facts are the girl was being act ually poisoned to death by coffee. Cora has since married and has a happy home and you may depend upon it. no coffee is allowed to enter there" Name given by rostum Co.,, Battle Greek, Mich.

What! Does the Grim Spectre Follow You Into the Joyous
 Springtime?
PAINE'S CELERY
 COMPOUND Defeats the Work of Death by Removing Your Terrible
 Burden of Disease.

Are you still in suffering. misery, and despondency? Does the grim spectre Death follow you closely as the joyous springtime brings happiness and blessings to others around you? Are you still clinging tenaciously to false theories of physicians or friends who persist In as- surfing you that time. care. and, the use of your present medicine will give you new health?
 Be assured your present condition is a perilous one. The continuance of the medicine you are now using is folly; you are simply trihing with life and vast ing precious time
 You should remember that while nature clothes the fields with fresh grass and flowers, and while the trees with strong life are showing bursting buds ana new foliage, that human beings-old ana young-drop off in thousands in spring time. Now is the time for prompt. decided and practical action If life Is to be saved. Prejudice and the erroneous theories Of even medical men should be cast aside when the hand of death ia upon you. It matters not what your social position be; the medicine that saves the humbiest man or woman is surely the one adapted for the needs of the rich and those In high social positions.
 Paine's Celery Compound has record
 
 of life saving that no other medicine can ever equal. It has rescued rich and poor from the grasp of death when physicians and their most carefully prepared pre- scriptions failed in the work If the suf- fering men and women of today could but see the happy faces and hear the kind words spoken by the tens of thousands who have been made well and strong by Paines Celery Compound, it would soon dispeI their existing doubts and fears.
 Paine's Celery Compound is the only medicine that reaches the root of dis ease: it is the only agency that can re- move your terrible load of disease. Cn- solicited testimonials of cures pour in every day. Young and old constantly bear witness that rheumatism neuralgia. kidney disease liver complaint. dyspep- sia and blood diseases are banished per- manently when Paine's Celery Compound is faithfully used for a time. Begin its use today, poor sufferer; delays are dan- gerous.

Crusade Against Profanity.

PhIIAueIpnla InQuITtT.
 A very strong and commendable cru sa de is being made at this time against profanity. In many cities and towns of the State there have been oEganiza- tions effected to do away with this care less and sinful habit. The evil is vide spread and has not been confined to one class of persons. and it is high time that pure speech be the rule among all classes and that Gods name be honored and hallowed, that it be held as sacred and more so than that of mother or father, for God not only demands 1t. but he Is entitled to our most heartfelt gratitude and reverence. Slang is too prevalent in conversation and in song. Even the pulpit is not altogether free from it's use. Other agencies help to spread phrases and words not of the choicest and best char acter.
