A Trip Through the County.
Continued from page 3.

here last Fourth OF July when a num-
Der of good speakers addressed the
people. In the evening we came 80
the home of Erik Paulson. Mr..
Paulson is veter an of the Civil war,
having served with the 23rd Iowa in
Missouri and Vicksburg campaigns.
Mrs. Paulson is survivor of the
Swedish people massacred by the In
dians. Four of these victims were
murdered upon the place now owned
by the Paulsons. The old cabin that
stood on the place is now part of the
dwelling of Syver Iverson, to whose
place it had later been moved. Mr..
Iverson stated that when he reshingled
the same he found rifle balls lodged
in the rafters. The Paulsons kindly
gave US shelter for the night as we'll
IS good satisfaction for our appetites.
We spent an interesting and pleasant
evening. The apple harvest was on
at the Paulson homestead. Several
barrels of fne-looking apples had
been picked and the trees were yet
loaded. Arctander has a fine lot of
orchards, and additions have been
started on nearly every place. There
is no reason why Minnesota farmer
shOuldsnot grow at least all the apples
and fruit that the household can use.
In the morning, after bidding farewell
to our hospitable friends, we started
westwardly. The country between
Paulson's place and the Monsoon grove
over the line in Swift county was
the scene of that dreadful massacre
of thirteen settlers by the Sioux
Indians in 1862. Neither women nor
children were spared and two families
were nearly entirely exterminated.
We called at the home of Mrs. Ger
trude Monsoon, the surviving widow Of
Anders Monson, on whose land the
old Broberg cabins stood and where
the victims were buried. We had an
interesting interview with Mrs. Mon
son. She discussed the removal of
the remains and the manner in
which it was done. She felt especially
grieved over the reports that had been
circulated that she would not give a
site for a monument or right of way
4 for road to the same. The rail fence
which marked the spot where the re.
mains were buried was removed by the
commissioners. The widow had re.
quested her sons to mark the place
! with a few large stones, which they
:. had neglected to do, disappointed az

Extracts from Labor Day Speeches.

The workman has right to himself,
his powers and the product of his
powers, and that right only ceases
when his activities interfere with the
rights of others. -Rev. G. L. Morrill,.
***
That social condition is abnormal
in which the individual feels that his
rights will not be safeguarded unless
he protects himself within the shelter
of a closely organized craft. That
economic condition is abnormal in
which wealth feels insecure unless
projected by irresistible combinations
of gold. The sovereign will of the
people should decree that neither com.
binations of wealth nor combination
of labor shall create abnormal con-
ditions Rev. J. M. Cleary.

of manhood it produces. At bottom

 Dr. W. T. Seeley, of Amity, N. T., says: "I have used your Castoria for several years in my practice and have found it a safe and reliable remedy"
 / Df. Raymond M. Evarts, of Santa Ynez, Cal, says: "After using your Castoria for children for years it annoys me greatly to have an ig- norant druggist substitute some. : thing else, especially to the patients disadvantage, as in this case. l en- close herewith the wrapper of the imitation"
 Dr. R. M. Ward, of Kansas City, Mo-, says: Physicians generally do not prescribe proprietary prepara- tions. but in the case of Castoria my experience, like that of many other physicians, has taught me to make an exception. prescribe your Cas- toria in my practice because I have found it to be thoroughly reliable remedy for children's complaints. Any physician who has raised a family, as I have, will join me in heartiest recommendation of Casto- ria"

THE LITTLE GREEN GOD.

This is the story of returned mis- sionary from India. who finds the mis- sionary cause in his own land in such neglect and confusion that he finally makes his departure for India with a sad and broken heart.
 He discovers in the city and amongst the fashionable set a tendency away from the religion of Christ Masking under new and attractive titles. he sees old heather religions winning thousands of converts under the very shadow of the Christian churches.
 The story is a bitter and acrid arraign- ment of the persons following after the new religious "fads" of the day, and points to them as simply a revival of the old heather faiths.
 "The Little Green God the book claims is being bowed to by thousands of in- telligent men and women of the land, whose eyes have been blinded and con sciences dulled by desire for and scram- ble after something new and up-to-date. The style of the work is crisp and at- tractive and leads one to make a careful study of the facts presented. (Fleming II. Re4ell Co.,. New York. E5 cents.)

Dr. B. Halstead Scott, of Chicago, H., says: "I have prescribed your Castoria often for infants during my practice and find it very satis- factory"
 Dr. William Belmont, of Cleve- land Ohio, says: "Your Castoria stands first in it's class. In my thirty years of practice I can say never have found anything that so filled the place" &
 Dr. R. J. Hanilen, of Detroit, Mich, says: "I prescribe your Cas- toria extensively as I have never found. anything to equal it for chil- dren's troubles. I am aware that there are limitations in the field, but I always see that my patients get Fletcher's."
 Dr. Charming H. Cook, of Saint Louis, Mo-, says: q have used your Castoria for several years past in my own family and have always found it thoroughly efficient and never objected to by children, which is a great consideration in view of the fact that most medicines of this character are obnoxious and there fore difficult of administration. As a laxative I consider it the peer of anything that I ever prescribed"

The March Smart Set.

Again The Smart Set astonishes by the variety and excellence of it's contents. Indeed. the March number seems ths best yet issued of this most successful maga- zine. The novelette,, 1.The Secret of Prin- cess Paul" is written by the famous Eng i1sh author, Flor snce Warden, and 1t is safe to say that no better story of mys- tery has recently appeared. The reader is held absorbed from opening to climax. Following this comes ''rhe Shadow of . Dream" by Justus Miles Forman. Rich. ard Le Gallienne contributes "An Edi- tors Cons ,ience:" "Amontillado," by John Regnauit Ellyson, IS a most curl ous narrative. G. B.. l3urgin, in The Gay Lord Gayle" Is, at his very best. There are other stories of unusual merit The March Smart Set Is especially rich in verse of a high order of merit. The most notable poems are by Madison Cawein. Clinton Scollard, Willis Leonard Clana- han, William Hamilton Hayne, Victor Plarr, Theodore Roberts, Arthur Ketch- um. Clinton Dangerfsld. Ethel M. Ksllsy and Elsa Barker And, too, the humor, Doth in verse and prose. is of the clever est Among the contributors to this de- partment are R. K. Munkit1ck, Edward w. Barnard, Tom P. Morgan, George Birdseye, Roy Farrell Greene, John Eliot. Felix Carmen and Alex Ricketts. A careful examination of the March number of the Smart Set convinces that it's ex- traordinary success is simply the result of its extraordinary merit.

 Dr. Wm. I. McCann, of Omaha, Neb., says: "As the father of thir- teen children I certainly know some- thing about your great medicine and aside from my own family experi- enee, I have, in my years of practice, found Castoria a popular and effi- cient remedy in almost every home. :"
 Dr. Howard James, of New York City, says: "It is with great pleasure that I desire to testify to the medici- nal virtue of your Castoria. I have used it with marked benefit in the case of my own daughter, and have obtained excellent results from its administration to other children in my practice"
 Dr. J. R. Clausen, of Philadel- phia, Pa., says: "The name that your Castoria has made for itself in the tens of thousands of homes blessed by the presence of children, scarcely needs to be supplemented by the endorsement of the medical pro- fession, but I, for one, most heartily endorse it and believe it an excel- lent remedy"

 History of the Apron.
 The apron to which this letter alludes, which is generally called the Washington apron, has embroidered upon it in gold and silver thread a square and compasses and other Masonic emblems, together with the American and French flags.
 This apron was worn by Washington while acting as the Grand Master pro tempore of Maryland, when he laid the corner stone of the Capitol at Washing ton City with Masonic ceremonies on Sep tember IS, 1795 It and the scarf were pre- sented to Alexandria Washington Lodge, No. 22, on June g. 1872, by Washington's s executors. They also gave the lodge the box from which the Lafayette apron came from France, which has upon It's top a Mark Masters emblem.
 Tn August, 1874, General Lafayette wis., ited Washington at Mount Vernon, and while there presented him with a Masonic apron, which had been made for him by Mime. Lafayette. It was never out of his personal possession. On October 26, 1S16. Washington Benevolent Society of Phil adelphia, and when 1t was dissolved in May, 1929, the apron became the property of the Grand Lodge of Pennsylvania. It is carefully preserved in the Masonic Temple at Philadelphia. Numerous em- blems are embroidered upon it in silk, the mystic letters of the Mark Master 8 degree being upon the upper part.
 George Washington Parke Custis, the adopted son of Washington, in speaking of the laying of the corner stone Of the Capitol, of which he was an eyewitness. said: General Washington certainly wore the >veritable apron now in posses sion of Alexandria Washington Lodge, No. 2. and such other insignia as was suited to his exalted rank as a Mason. This apron was given to the lodge No, 2 by the executors of Washington. of whom am the sole survivor"

The father of the young wo- man, after long obduracy, comes under the influence of his daughter, and his life Is saved by her as he lay dying with a crushed chest. After his recovery he is made to say to his wife, who called her daughters faith fad, 'The truth Is the truth. It is the thing that is. What matter except to us, whether we accept 1t or deny 1t? We cannot change 1t except for ourselves. If we are not borne along by It's current, We are put out of the stream of life. We get into the eddies and die there.

 One grain of the active principle in Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest 1000 grains of meat, eggs or other wholesome food, and this claim has been proven by actual experiment which anyone can per- form for himself In the following manner: Cut hard boiled eggs into very small pieces, as it would be f masticated, place the egg and two or three of the tablets in bottle or jar containing warm water heated to 9S degrees (the temperature of the body) and keep 1t at this temperature for three and one-half hours, at the end of which time the egg will be us complete ly diRested as 1t would have been in the healthy stomach of a hungry boy.
 The point of this experiment Is that what Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will do to the egg in the bottle 1t will do to the egg or meat in the stomach and nothing else will rest and invigorate the stomach so safely and effectually.
