WEEDS

Consumption is a human
weed fourishing best in weak
lungs. Like other weeds it's
easily destroyed while young;
when old, sometimes i'm
possible.
Strengthen the lungs as you
would weak land and the
weeds will disappear.
The best lung fertilizer is
SCOTS Emulsion. Salt pork
is good too, but it is very hard
to digest.
The time to treat consump-
ton is when you begin trying
to- hide it from yourself.
Others see it, you won't.
Don't wait until. you can't
deceive yourself any longer.
Begin with the first thought
to take SCOTS Emulsion. If
it isn't really consumption SO
much the better; you will soon
forget it and be better for the
treatment. If it is consump-
ton you can't expect to be
cured at once, but if you will
begin in time and will be
rigidly regular in your treat
ment you will win.
SCOTS Emulsion, fresh air,
rest all you can, eat all you
can, that's the treatment and
that's the best treatment.

NORTH DAKoTAs' FUTURE.

Speaking Of present and prospective
land values in North Dakota, the
Minneapolis Journal observes: "The
average number of persons to the
square mile in North Dakota is only
As; in Minnesota 22.1. When North
Dakota is as thickly settled as in
Minnesota today, it will have approx
mately five times as many people as it
has today say $50, 900 or 1,750, 900.
Ii 1870 Minnesota had about as many
people as North Dakota has today.
It has taken Minnesota, then only
thirty years to grow as much as North
Dakota will have to grow to be as
populous as Minnesota is today. But
the field for settlement is so much
smaller than it was that North Dakota
will undoubtedly grow much faster
than Minnesota has. AS a matter of
fact, the percentages show that North
Dakota is growing much faster pro-
portionately. From 1880 to 1890 North
Dakota gained $685. per cent popu-
lation. In the next decade it gained
a. per cont. For the same periods
Minnesota gained 66.7 and 34.5 per
cent respectively. tt is quite possible
that within twenty years North Da-
kota will have more than /, 500, 900.
What that means for North Dakota
lands, any Minnesota man al tell
who remembers when southern
Minnesota lands that are now going
at $50 and $500 an acre, were given
away by the government o. sold at s.
to $40 an acre. We suppose that $3t
and $40 represent top land prices in
North Dakota today, with immense
areas as that can be bought from
those figures down to 81 and So an
acre. It is certain that land values
in. North Dakota will in a decade
increase at least 100 per cent through
the state as a whole, while it is taking
on a million people"

sENTIMENTIN THE PRESIDENTS:
MESSAGE.

Almost buried in the body Of the
presidents message is a very fine bit
of sentiment, says the St. Paul Daily
News. Perhaps you didn't see it.
A good many people do not read presi-
dents messages in time of peace.
They catalogue them along with cen
sus records and patent Office reports
and mark them ''dry."
The first man in the United States,
and perhaps the busiest, has found
time, while talking of the gigantic
affairs Of capital and labor, of trusts
and treaties, to make. an earnest plea
for the horses, the nags that serve
Uncle Sam.
Now, and for years, it has been the
custom to weed out the old and worn
out army horses and sell them for a
song. 1t doesn't matter what they
have done. They may have dragged
heavy cannons up the hill in the face
of a cyclone of bullets and saved the
day at San Juan, or have been the
means Of preserving human lives.
Those things do not count in animal
life, and for that reason you may find
gaunt army horses hauling heavy
street cars, working in gravel pits,
dragging junk wagons; doing the
hardest kinds of labor; often half fed
and entirely neglected. A wornout
horse cannot expect a%ristocratic toll.
He is chaep. And because he is cheaI
his owner has but N desire-to gel
as much work as possible out Of the
animal before he dies.
The president says the system is
wrong. He asserts that there should
be some honor attached to the career
of an army horse, and he recommends
that such animals as are unable to
stand the pace be given light work
about the army posts, or else the boor
Of a painless death.
There is no politics in that section
of the presidents message. It is
paragraph for humanity, and tn
world will say amen to it.

Queer Florida Town.

The existence of a singular town II
brought TO notice by the Introduction Of
Senator Mallory, of Florida, of bill TO
provide public schools. one for white, the
other for colored children In the town Of
Warrington, Fla.
At the close of the Civil war the busi-
ness of the navy yard at Pensacola was
considerable, and the number of employees
was large. Many of the persons working
In the yard 'squatted" upon the unoc-
cupied land comprised within the limits OF
the naval reservation. and obtained per-
mission from the department TO build
homes thereon. The number of home
builders increased even after the tenn
porary activity of the navy yard was sue
ceeded by the lethargy that came over
the navy and lasted for nearly twenty
years. In time. the group Of houses as
sumed proportions OF town; then IL
took a name. and became Warrington.
The Post Office Department recognized
the rights. gave II post office. which
later IL made a money order office, and
now the town has some 800 houses. six
churches, several stores, and population
OF more than 1900 persons.
The commander of the Pensacola Navy
Yard rules the town: the inhabitants
pay no taxes, and have no votes. The
place Is kept in order by the captain of
the yard and "polced' as the rest OF
the naval reservation Is. The bureau of
yards and docks installed and main
tains the electric lights and the sewer
system. though very few OF the inhabi-
tants are employed by the government.
BY far greater part of those who thus
enjoy the nations part are engaged in
fishing or in farming for a living.
Now Senator Mallory thinks that I'm adj
dlton TO providing light, clean streets
and santa ton OF the most improved type,
the government should also provide
schools for the children of the un-
taxed dwellers in Warrington and, ac-
cordingly introduced his bill.--Philadel-
