PROPERLY SIZED UP.

Thirty years ago any man who at
tempted farming in what is now South
DakQta as'looked upon as one who
needed Il guardianship over his affairs.
Twenty years ago il was admitted that
farming could be madeproitable in the
ESionx valley, but anything west of that
was worthless for anything except
grass Ten years ago, the admission
of a crop section was extended to the
Jim river country, but the man beyond
that districtwas looked upon with sym
|pathy. Today crops are just as certain
anywhere east of the Missouri river,
but thu man who talks Of going west Of
the river is told that he is fool. Ten
years from now farming operations
will extend to the westernmost boun-
daries of the state, and these facts
would now be admitted all over the
state ifsit were not for selfish reasons

before noon today when Mrs. G. ".
Seelye's horse took fright i'll trout of
the Pierre National Bank and started
up Pierre street at fullspeed. Mrs. Seeiye

sidewalk for a distance and again tool,
to the street. Griffin, the taxidermist

but missed. In front OF Ghristensen's
gallery Mrs. Seelye was thrown from
the carriage by its rocking motion and
the horse continued its run toward
home. but was stopped few yards
east Of the Schubert block. Mrs. Seslse
was able to walk as soon as she W:ls
assisted to her feet. and rs de from

SOUTH DALOTA AHEAD.

The Meade County Bank of Sturgis
aha, complied some very curious and
valuable statistics, mainly of a financial
nature, the principal object being to
contrast the six counties of the Black
Hills with the rest of the world.
Itis found that South Dakota has
fof six successive years produced more
wealth per capita than any other state
in the union: has more banks per capita
than any other state, and Massachu-
setts is the only state in the union
that outranks in point Of literacy.
There are twenty three banks in the
Black Hills, having at the close Of bus
ines November II last deposits of near
ly $5,000,OoO. This is an average of
about 1928 per capita, and is about two
and one-half times greater that the av-
erage deposits per capita for the entire
United States.
All the larger mining corporations
have their deposits in the eastern cities
and do their banking business with
eastern banks, and the larger cattle
companies have but a meager portion
of their capital deposited here The
remarkable figures shown'and the facts
as stated being understood. will prove
that the Black Hills is the richest coun-
try per capita average per capita of
any spot in the United States inhabited
by civilized people.

GIVEN THREE MONTHS TO LIVE BY
 COUNCIL OF DOCTORS.
CURED OF ANEMIA BY DIR WILLIAMS PINK PILLS AFTER ORDINARY MEDI- CINE HAD FAILED.

From Respondent woman, given up to die by the best physicians she could summon, Mrs Ethel Watkins, of No ll2 Parker street, Scranton, Pa., has become we'll and cheerful, a living, enthusiastic endorsement of the reme- dy to which she owes her life and health. Mrs Watkins was afflicted with an2mia a disease: in which the blood becomes so deficient as to be unable to furnish the tissues of the body with necessary nourishment. Every organ is starved and the patient becomes white and | waXen in appearance. If this con- dition is not quickly remedied it runs into persistent anamia, one of the most hopeless of diseases. In Mrs | Watkins case, as usually happens, the character of the disease was not discovered until it was well advanced. She says:
 "If I happened to scratch or cut myself no blood would flow-just a watery-looking fluid. I was shockingly thin, as white as sheet and without bitI of strength. Three doctors att tended me and all said l could not live three months. had no appetite, my heart was weak, sleep did not rest me and I became Respondent.
 ''The doctors medicines did.not help me and neither dld anything else that
 tried until, upon the advice of a friend who had been cured of anamia
 by Dr Williams Pink Pills for Pale
 People, began using them. They helped me almost immediately and
 by the time I had taken seven boxes
 cured me. I am always glad to rec ommend pr Williams Pink Pills fo Pale People to others.''
 One of the most wonderful things il f nature is the process by which the re( : corpuscles of the blood carry the ,nour g ishment, which the digestive organ l have taken from the food, to every 2 part of the human system. Whel
 these corpuscles become deficient, pal z Tor ensues, a sure sign that the blood lacks richness and that starvation ha
 actually begun. It is in this condition
 that Dr Williams Pink Pills for Pal
 People supply the necessary element 0 directly to the blood and.- this remed V has cured more cases of an9mia tha
 of any other trouble, although tn Q power of Dr Williams Pink Pills i l. diseases of the blood and nerves Ina

 have not yielded to ordinary treatmen 'l Dr Williams wonderful discovery. {
