WATER Is HIGH
SITUATION CRITICAL IN THE
NORTHERN PART OF THE

Grand Forks Herald: =. H. Prouty,
al the head of the Prouty Live Stock
company at st. Paul, has just returned
from a trip to the Mouse river country
state, where the main ranges of that
company are located. MI. Prouty has
had cattle in the Mouse river county
for the past eighteen years and declares
that never before has such high water
prevailed as exists at the present time.
He says no one a have any concep-
ton of the conditions that exist there,
with the exception of those who have
been on the ground. The greater por-
ton of the land, he states, is under
water, and the situation is very critical
III his estimation.
Up to date he says there have been
no heavy loses of stock, the losses in
fact have been very light, the stock
weathering the two storms that have
occurred this. spring in good shape.
The danger in the present situation
is that a severe storm strike the
country, the stock would be totally I'M
protected, and without doubt the losses
would be enormous. Should the
weather continue good no trouble is
~apprehended, as the water is gradually
subsiding and the grass is already
startling in good shape. The stock win
tered well and is now strong and in
first class shape in every way to stand
the high water which narrows the
grazing land available very materially.
The stock men who have put up hay in
quantities are heavy losers in that on
nection as the most of the hay stacks
are under water. Therefore there is
no fodder available with the exception
| CT grass, and the high water makes this
very limited at the present time,
Mr.. Prouty is of the opinion that the
water. throughout the Mouse river
country is higher than it has been since.
it was first e by a white nan In
speaking of the general cattle situa-
ton Mr.. Prouty said that the cattle
men in the Mouse river country would
seon be compelled to move anyway.
The new settlers are iocking to that
gection of the state in perfect hordes.
Practically all the land is taken up
now, and the new corners are planning

A New Snort For Women.

'Hammering" is an unpleasant proc
ess on the Stock Exchange, but in Aus
tralla the word has recently acquired
new and more agreeable significance.
At antipodean bazaars "hammering" is
now an established institution. Ladies
who enter for the competition so on a
platform with hammers In their hands.
Each is supplied with piece of the
hard Australian timber largely used
for the paving of London streets. Each
lady is also presented with three nails,
and at a given signal they start to
work. The lady who is the first to
drive her three nails home to the head
wins the prize. Says one descriptive
reporter: 'Steel sparks and splinters
flew around. The nails would go any
where but through the wood. The
hammers would go anywhere but on
the nail heads. London Chronicle.

Of it, but in these days of ship speeding

in this age of hurry and hustle to
whom the ocean trip is in itself an
agreeable incident. The society is gen.
orally pleasant, there are interesting
sights on the deep, the fare is as good
as that of first class hotel, seasick-

Robert Blossoms First Success.

At Dayton, o., there is a soldiers
home, with a small theater attached
to it. There during the summer young
actors not yet admitted to regular pro-
fessional standing and possessed of
more ambition than training gain expe-
rience for themselves and give amuse-
ment to the veterans by playing little
one act plays, doing individual acts of
various kinds and experimenting with
all classes of roles, from feeble fathers
to vigorous clog dancers. Years ago q
certain young man, Robert Edeson,
spent q summer vacation acting in
Dayton and aroused such vociferous
enthusiasm by his work on the little
stage that large notice was posted
on one side of the drop curtain, "Mem-
bers of the audience with wooden legs
must not applaud by stamping on the
floor" But the veterans managed TO
obey orders and still keep up their
applause. They crossed their acquired
manufactured legs over their original
natural ones and then whacked the
wooden ones with their canes. And
that was Robert Blossoms first sue

BREVlTIES.

There were 1,071 strikes during 1901
in Germany, involving 141 900 persons.
as against 1,462 strikes of 20S,S19 per-

strikes were successful in 2S5 cases
they were partially successful, and in
81 cases they failed.

and England and her colonies took
$4,400,000 worth of this total.

Her husbands brother had through
his own efforts become very rich.
Now" he said, 81 will do something
for her and the children. l am under
no obligation to them, but they are
poor and feel that it will be no more
than right for me to help them"
Therefore he bought a comfortable
home for them and gave her the deed.
Then he took her to the furniture stores.
and they selected carpets, beds, chairs
and other things that were necessary
to make them comfortable, and he paid
for them, after which he went about
his own affairs rejoicing.
She sat in her new home, with her
hands clasped in her lap and a sad
look on her face.
"What is the trouble?" her neighbor
asked.

and meanness of some people," she sor

A man struggling along under heavy
burden suddenly stumbled and crashed
through a plate glass store window
The proprietor of the store demanded
payment. The porter said he had no
money. Passersby advised that he be
searched. A thousand mark note was
found on him, which, he said belonged
to his employer. The storekeeper
however, deducted 100 marks for the
value of his window and handed 900
marks change to the porter, who went
away swearing and protesting. A lit
tie later the storekeeper discovered the
thousand mark note was spurious.

THE "ELEVATOR Face"
Doctor Thinks Environment May
Produce New Human Species.

Doctor Th1nks
Produce New Human Species.
Now 1t Is the elevator face" 1t is
characterized by a strained effort to
look two ways at once. 1t has been
noticed for some time, but has become
more common since the Frlck, Arrott
and other very tall buildings have
been erected. 1t Is the product Of the
desire to catch the first elevator pass
ing the floor. Those who try it know
this requires close watch on both sides
at once, says the Pittsburg Gazette.
The higher and larger the skyscrap-
ers the greater the number of elevators
required. In fact, the ultimate height
of office buildings will be measured by
the inability to give elevator service on
account of the space occupied by them.
But to return to the elevator face"
A physician who believes in the Oar
winian theory and attributes odd de-
velopment to environment declared the
other day that modern civilization Is
working toward a new type of the hui
man animal.
This straining to see on both sides
at once" said he, Twill cause the eyes
TO grow farther apart. 1t is not mere
ly watching for elevators that calls
for double vision at a wide angle.
Crossing congested streets and looking
for trolley cars and automobiles in both
directions require the same kind of
skill. In time the eyes will become in
dependent of each other and placed
well to the side of the forehead. Then
the owner can cover as wide a field as
the turret guns on one of our new war
ships, This will allow him to watch
for all the elevators at once or to see
vehicles approaching from all direc-
tlons. No doubt there will be other
changes in the face. The features may
grow sharp and peaked from the state
of continual watchfulness, while the
ears may be abnormal in size and have
great delcacy in sense in order to
catch the faintest rattle of the big
chain on the elevators or the soft tread
of the pneumatic tired auto. The whole
expression will be one of great inten-
sity."

Why Diseases Become Chronic.
Nerve Force Regarded by
Scientists as More Import
ant Than the Blood.
A $4.oo TREATMENT FREE.

The blood was formerly regarded as
the life giving principle and to its con-
dition was attributed all that there was
of health or illness. Now, psychologists
know that nerve force and vitality are
the same, and that the constitution,
good or bad, depends upon nerve force.
Nerve force controls all motion, SEN
sation, digestion and nutrition. An
abundance of this subtle energy means
health and vigor; a lack of it causes
general debility, nervous prostration,
premature decline, disease and death
Nerve force is chiefly generated in the
brain, and therefore in the treatment
OF all lingering diseases the condition
OF the brain centers should be carefully
considered and treated. One great
cause of diseases becoming chronic is
that physicians overlook the fact that
deficiency of nerve force is the chief
cause of most diseases. Nervous pros
tration is due to lack of nerve force.
DR.. Miles Neuropathic Treatments
strengthen and invigorate the nerve
centers. They are the result of twenty
five years careful study, extensive re-
search and remarkable success. They
build up the system by increasing nerve
force, and have won for DR.. Miles the
thanks OF thousands of sufferers.
Mrs A. Kronck of Huntington, Ind, was

ians had given her up; Mrs. julius Keister of

vertised, but every chronic sufferer is
invited to write for Dr. Miles free book

The Ways of the Turk.

Baedeker's is generally regarded as a
harmless book. Not so in Turkey, as a
German traveller has learned to his
grief. They found in his trunk a
guide through Turkey and confiscated
it. The next morning the Baedeller
was returned to the German, but with
more than hundred pages containing
a description of Constantinople, torn
out. The traveller went to the censor $
office to complain of this ineXplicable
treatment of his book. But the censor
explained to him with irresistible logic
that an accurate description of Con-
stantinople could not be suffered, since
a knowledge of the locality was cal
culated to facilitate an attempt on the
sultans life.
