This Information Will Prove a Boon
to Mitchell Mothers.

TIA juvenile member OF your family
lacks control over the kidney secre-
tions at night don't whipor scold the
child. The coating or lining Of the
bladder is infiamed and the kidney
secretions are SO full OF acid that
they irritate that organ and bed
wetting is the result. The hundreds
OF testimonials from every state in
the union all declaring children have
been cured Of this weakness by the
use Of Doan's Kidney Pills, prove
that at least in other cases the
remedy did what was promised,
namely, stopped the so-called habit.
Here is proof for Mitchell mothers:
Mrs. W. NJ. Hortin, of Lincoln
avenue, Fergus Falls, Mimi, says:
II would not recommend anything, I
don't care what it was, unless I knew
such an article possessed merit and
was worthy Of endorsement. In re-
gard to Doan's Kidney Pills / have
had proof in my own family that they
are a good remedy. Our little boy
for quite a long time was troubled
evidently with some kidney derange-
ment. The kidney %secretions were
not healthy in color, and in standing
deposited a heavy brick colored sedi-
ment. This has gone on for quite a
while and it naturally gave me some
uneasiness. It finally led us to OBJ
tain Doan's Kidney Pills from a
drug store and use them. The re-
suit gave us much pleasure. There
are no longer nyindications of any
thing wrong with the boys kidneys.
I consider such results sufficient to
enable us to endorse Deans Kidney
Pills"

There is a principal of an Iowa
school whose conscience is averse to
taking something without giving
the equivalent therefor. This
principal draws a salary OF $40 a
month for teaching nine pupils IN
the high school. The people are
satisfied to payit and he is pleased
with his position, but his conscience
comes in and says that to accept $40
a month for such small labor is not
right. This may or may not dis
courage others who r holding snaps
with the public, but we don't think
there will be a general movement on
the part of those holding easy jobs to
give them up right away.

Bishop Spaulding, who was or the

pleased with the outcome OF the arbi-
tration that he declares the day for
strikes is past. Inasmuch as this is
the first time that a strike has been
settled SO satisfactorily by arbitration
there is room for the bishop to be-
come a trife optimistic, still the sea-

and if we can get past the first OF
May without a strike or two is will

NEW LUMBER YARD
j. L. Morrow and John +. Anderson
Formed a Partnership to Eli
gage in Business.

The Floete Lumber Co., of Armour,
which recently announced that ar
engagements had been made for estab-
lshing a new lumber yard in Mitchell,
has decided to withdraw from the
field, and has given up the Idea.
All it's rights have been turned over
to another firm, which will establish
the yard. This firm is composed OF
Jos. T. Morrow, of tins city, and
John f. Anderson, of Chamberlain.
The exact location of the new yard
has not been determined upon as
yet. but will be in the course of ii
few days.
The first installment OF lumber,
Mr.. Morrow said, arrived in the city
Wednesday. 1t consisted of thir-
teen cars and there will be plenty
a,ore to follow. The firm will COM
mence at once the erection of sheds
for protecting the higher grade of
lumncr from the elements and an
Office building will be constructed.
MI. Anderson is Interested in a
lumber yard at Chamberlain and
with MI. Morrow they purchased the
Calder lumber yard at Plankinton d
short time ago. Mr.. Anderson may
move to this city to make his home,
although he has not yet decided
upon that matter definitely. With
this new firm Mitchell will have
four yards. The firm is composed Of
men who have the capital to put
In a most complete stock and they
will doubtless hold up their end Of
the business.

to make an investigation along that

divided among them they would not

A PRESIDENTIAL TRAIN
Exceptional Care Used When Snch q
Train is Travelling Over Any
System of Road.

The Milwaukee road handled the,
special train Of President Roosevelt
in a very capable tanner and turned
it over to the Northern Pacific road
without a mishap and every point
was made on time even though at
some places a few minutes were
stolen to give the president 81 little
mole time to talk.
When the PRESIDENTS train reached
Mitchell every care and precaution
was taken to prevent an accident OF
the slightest character. The switches
entering the railroad yards were par
ticularly guarded. The rails were
spiked down at the switches to pre-
vent any possibility ..of being moved.
and men stood at these places as an
additional precaution. There is a
nervous strain on the railroad officials
when the president travels over the
road as they are particularly anxious
that not the slightest thing shall
occur to attract any unfavorable COM
ment. Accompanying the train
were Manager Williams Of Chicago
and Superintendent BeardsIey OF the
IS. g. s. d. division. At this point
Supt. W. W. Collins of the l. s. D.
division and Supt. Tucker Of the
James River division went on the
train, as also did Travelling Engineer
Thomas Manchester. WIN. McITar-
lane, general foreman, and G. G.
Mason, Of Mason City, trainmaster,
were also or the ground a day or two
before to assist in seeing that every
necessary preparation was made for
the motive power that was to be used
in hauling the presidential train.
a sigh of relief was heayed when the
train was turned oveI to tile North
ern Pacific at Edgeiy, andeverything
had passed off so smoothly and on
the dot with the Milwaukee's way of
handling traffic over the system.

sheltered at the end Of a trip Of lO,-
600 miles. Miss Flo Cross was en-
gagged to marry Prof. Barrow. The
professor got d job teaching school in

was to join him there later. She did
so, only to find a letter awaiting her
at Manila to inform her that it was
impossible for him to marry her.
The professor had gone farther
into the interior Of the Islands and
there he can hang his head in shame.

a Yankton correspondent assures
the country at large that there was
no plot formed to assassinate the
president at that place. A telegram
was sent out from Yankton that
there we're ten men suspected of a
plot to kill the president and that it
would be attempted there. There
does not seem to be any foundation
for the report, and the people were
unnecessarily alarmed.

On his tour through the country
President Roosevelt is having a large
number Of demonstrations that race
suicide has no place in the northwest.
At ST. Paul a family generation of
nearly n hundred people assembled
to show the president that the multi
plying of the population Of the coun-
try was being kept up as well as his
heart could desire. In nearly all the
towns along his route the school
children are assembled in vast num-
bers, and in practically every case
the president gives the children a
special address. showing his intense
admiration for the rising genera
ton.

Not that we care a continental
about the matter, but the Pierre
State Register, which purported to
give some information, belated
though it was, as to the PRESIDENTS
visit in South Dapkota. simply
ignored Mitchell as one Of the places
at which the president would stop on
his trip. In its next issue the State
Register discovered that the presi-
dent would stop in Mitchell about
five minutes. just for the informal
ton of the State Reeister we would
say that the president remained in
Mitchell thirty minutes and made the
longest..address of the day here, with
the exception OF his morning speech
at Sioux Falls. We sincerely regret
that Pierre is SO far removed from
the center of population, and that
it takes so long to get there that its
people had to forego the pleasure of
a presidential visit.

1t was remarked on every hand
what a splendid appearance President
Roosevelt made when IN Mitchell
Monday, contrasting with his first
appearance here. There is a vast
difference in looking at a candidate
for vice president and then again at
the same man as president OF the
United States and it was patent to
all that he had risen to the occasion
in every respect. He was the same
Roosevelt that spoke here three years
ago, and he was no more earnest this
time than then, but there was an
added interest in his words because
of his splendid record made in look.
ing after the rights Of the people.
His sturdiness along this line has
made him the admired one of the
nation irrespective OF party lines.

A Peoples Palace

The largest congregational church
in Jersey City has begun the erection
of a peoples palace, the object Of
which is to ''sanctify all legitimate
amusements and not let-the devil
have a monopoly Of them. ~ The
building will contain rooms for dane
ing and card games as well as for
church meetings and Sunday Schools
There will be bowling alleys, pool
and billiard tables, rife ranges, a
theatre, a ballroom, a gymnasium
and accommodations for other am1se-
ments. The idea is to keep boys of
the streets, young men out of saloons
and young women out Of dance halls.
The building will be undenonnina-
tional but under the edirect supervision
of the pastor and will cost 800, 600.
There will be an endowment fund
sufficiently large to maintain it free
Of cost so that everybody may have
access to its benefits.

Consumption is a human
weed flourishing best in weak
lungs. Like other weeds it's
easily destroyed while young;
when old, sometimes inn
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 viii 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 ali you
can, that's the treatment and
that's the best treatment.
