Harvest Services

A very pleasing harvest home
service was held at the M. E.
church last Sunday. The church
was prettily decorated with
grains, grasses, fruits, flowers
and vegetables, Indicative of
the harvest season, and the
morning sermon was along the
line of a grateful remembrance
of the Greater of the universe.
AT the Sunday school service
the hour was devoted to a rally
day, service, in which letters
received from a number of
former officers and members
of the school were read, among
these being most interesting
reminiscent communications
from D. W. Diggs, F. w. Naza-
rene, H. S. Keller, aud short
remarks by some of the later
superintendent and assistants.
In the evening a choir, composed
largely of the young people of
the church, rendered the cantata,
"Under the Palms" in a most
enjoyable manner, the story OF
the song being founded upon the
return of the Hebrews who were
to rebuild Jerusalem and the
temple. The several parts were
nicely rendered and the service
pleasing throughout.

Carnival

C0fn1v0l
From Tuesdays Daily HERALD-ADvANcE-
The people of Milbank twice
before, in the years 1899 and
1900, held q street fair similar
to the one at present under way
in the city, but at neither of these
former exhibitions was there
anything like the preparations
entered into that have been made
for the present carnival. While
at present writing the street
decorations are still incomplete,
enough is in evidence to show
that q very fine scenic effect
will be had. Between twenty
and thirty private booths have
been placed in position, some of
them very unique aud prettily
decorated, but the GROWING
beauty is found in the two large
arches, one crossing the street
between the Burkhardt building
and the hotel, and the other at
the Fourth avenue crossing. The
latter arch was completed last
Saturday, and it's very beautiful
appearance has drawn forth
the admiration of all who have
seen 1t. The arch is composed
Of two pillars each about 8x4
feet in size and running up
about twenty feet in height.
surmounted with a peaked roof.
These piers are artistically
decorated, the lower portion
with green cornstalks prettily
laid to produce a proper effect,
with q background Of red bunt-
ing. Above this corn On cob,
alternating yellow and white
are laid il squares, horizontally
and perpendicularly. Above
these are circles made from
end pieces of corn, with the
background of red bunting
largely in evidence. Above this
is worked q large wheel device
OF white corn, with a daisy on
each side, the flower being made
Of white corn set in background
Of blue andwhite corn, and above
this on the sloping peak is q
beautiful box effect made from
yellow and white corn on the
cob. From this to the top q
triangle and diamond were
worked out in good effect with
the different colored corn, and
corners trimmed with fax,
oats and wheat in the straw.
An arch, from the center of
which hangs q bell Of gram,
spans the distance between the
piers. The northern arch at
the junction Of Railway avenue
ID built IN similar manner to the
one above described, q large
Tyre taking the place Of the wheel
device.
The artistic arrangement and
handsome effect produced are
from designs worked out by
Mr. F. NJ. Johnson, an expert
enced man in this line of work,
who has faithfully and ener-
getically, and we think most
successfully, accomplished a
difficult task. And while he
says the work had not reached
the perfection desired it is all
that could be effected in the
limited time in which the work
had to be done, and with the
help that was entirely inexperi-
enced. Certainly q handsome
effect has been produced, and
anyone who has not seen decora-
tions OF this character can
scarcely realize that corn could
~ made to produce so beautiful
GA effect by simple arrangement
of the different varieties.
Iton Wednesdays DAILY.
The opening day of the Carni-
vi proved q very suspicious one
ii every respect. The weather
Was bright, clear and just warm
enough TO be pleasant-in fact an
ideal Dakota September day.

THE GREAT r1EDICINE.

The greatest OF modern physicians, Prof.
Edward +. Phelps, NJ. D., Ii. D., after years
of long practice and close scientific study, gave
10 suffering and diseased men and women his
marvellous, life giving prescription, with the
conviction and positive knowledge that it had
peculiar virtues and ample powers to cure.
Thousands of the strongest testimonials from
the best known and most reliable men and
women of our country fully sustain the claims
made by DR.. Phelps regarding his incompar-
able Paine's Celery Compound.
One of the most convincing proofs furnished,
comes recently from a gentleman widely
known in the capital city of the Dominion of
Canada. We refer to Mr.. Alfred Brown, 81
O'Connor ST., Ottawa, Ont. Mr.. Browns
letter fully demonstrates the fact that the
greatest sufferer may cast off his or her burden
of disease and become well, strong, and happy.
1t proves, too, that the great medicine main
tains more fully than ever before its unrivaled
place in the estimation of people of wealth
and social standing as well as with the masses.
Mr.. Brown says:-
81 acknowledge with thankfulness and
pleasure the fact that have been cured of
very painful illness of eight years standing by
use of Paine's Celery Compound. 1 had,
during the years of my illness, tried almost all
the advertised medicines without deriving any
good results. 1 was also treated by several of
the best doctors of this city, hoping to find
that one of them, at least, would understand
my case.
81 was getting worse, and was told was
incurable. 1 was indeed in a critical condi-
ton. 1 could not go from the house alone,
as l was liable to sudden collapse. l tried
hospital treatment, but no relief or good results
