Of bronchitis and for a year tried

%
Yankton Press and Dakotan: The
Independent Telephone company. OF
Yankton, with a capital stock Of
5000, 900 has been incorporated for the
purpose Of constructing long distance
lines north to Mitchell, east to Sioux
City, and northeast to Violin, Viborg,
Irene and Davis, where it will meet
and connect with the long distance
lines OF the Interstate Telephone
company of Sioux Falls. The Yank-
ton company has purchased the long
distance lines of the Farmers Tele-
phone company, now built from Tyn-
dali to Tabor and Lesterville with
the material now on the ground to
complete the connection to Yankton.
to connect with the new exchange
here. Yankton will be the main
office and headquarters Of the COM

German Church Services.

There will be German Sunday
school and German preaching next
morning in the Workman
hall, on the west side; Of Main street,
in the block between First and Sec
ond Streets. Sunday school at 9:45
NJ. and preaching at 1O:45 a. N. .
The writer will preach in Mitchell
regularly every other week after this
and all who understand German are
heartily invited to attend the meet
ings. Further premit me to call your
to the German Sunday
school, which will be organized next
Sunday, and I believe an absolute
necessity for Mitchell, because a town
with about 5000 inhabitants and,so
many Germans as5 Mitchell has and
neither German church or Sunday
school certainly has need of a German
Sunday school, and we believe the
people Of Mitchell will gladly welcome
the same.
2 We hereby give all that desire tc
learn German an opportunity an6
hearty invitation to come, and We
will do all for you we can.

There are great forests OF leafess
trees in Australia. They are acacias,
or wattles, as some people call them,
and their being leafess Is simply an
adaptation to the dry climate. They
have leaves while growing, but when
their growth is complete they she'd

little stem that remains, because mois
ture Is too precious to them for the.

Keep the Balance Up.

1t has been truthfully said that
any disturbance Of the even balance
of health causes serious trouble.
Nobody can be too careful to keep
this balance up. When people tegin
to lose appetite or to get tired
easily, the least imprudence brings
on sickness, weakness or debility.
The system needs a tonic, Graves it,
and should not be denied il; and the
best tonic Of which we have any
knowledge is Hoods Sarsaparilla.
What this medicine has done in
keeping healthy people healthy, in
keeping up the even balance of
health, gives it the same distinction
as a preventive that it e%njoys.-as a
cure. Its early use has illustrated
the wisdom Of the old saying that
a stitch in time saves nine. Take
Hoods for appetite, strength, and
endurance.

We were somewhat amused one day
last week when a lady friend of ours.
who evidently was not an experienced
farmer told US that she was at Mitch-s
ella few days previous, looking for
seed corn and succeeded in getting
only seven bushels at ST. IS pei bushel-
She said she was at a loss to know
where to obtain the balance of the
seed with which to plant as acres,
stating that the sc d man at Mitch
ell Informed her that it required
eight bushels per acre. Figure this
up and you have about the price Of
la good farm for seed corn to plant
that field. We Informed her that the
said seed man was deceiving her, and
THAT it required only about one BUSH
ell for eight acres. She then wiped
|her perspiring face with her apron,
went to the granary, sat down on one
of the sacks of corr and famed her
self with the scoop shovel, with an
apparent thankfulness that we came
to her rescue, thus making a differ
lence of about 1925 on the price of her
seed corn, as good seed corn and
plenty of it was being advertised by
her .%neighbors at 81 per bushel. We
did not charge her anything for our
advice, but we are fixed to eat ice
cream with her at any time during
the hot summer that she may sug-
gest, and dish up the cream.
