PROSPERITY in NORTHWEST.

Mitchell, South Dakota, Sept. 3d.
The South Dakota idea this year is to
emphasize the riches of this state.
When 1t is confidently stated that this
year for the sixth consecutive year
South Dakota win lead all other states
in the greatest per capita wealth, it
can readily be understood why South
Dakota is ambitious to advertise its
crops and resources.
The report of fortnight ago regard
ing the heavy fall Of snow and dam
age done to the crops by frost, now
appears to have been a false alarm.
This is the judgment of party Of
newspaper men and representative of
the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul Ry.
who have made trip of more than
1920 miles through the state during
the last ten days. The greatest esti-
mate of damage that is now made by
those in a position to know is, three
per cent damage to corn crop of the
state. In the rich agricultural section,
in the valley of the Missouri River,
crops appear to splendid advantage.
Occasionally one finds fields where
there has been perhaps too much wa
ter and the crops are somewhat late,
but this is the exception.
The following is a conservative esti-
mate of the products of the state and
their value for 1903:

Franksville, Wis, Oct. 1zth.-Many
remarkable cures are being reported
from all over the country but there
Is one right here in Franksville which
is certainly worth publishing, and
which has not as yet been given to
the public.
Mrs. Louis Markison of this place
had been sick woman for quite Q
long time and could not find anything
to give her any help. She suffered all
the painful symptoms of what is gem
orally known as female weakness.
Every woman who reads her story
will understand these distressing con-
ditions which combine to make the
lives of many women one long bur-
den of weakness and suffering.
Mrs. Markison CHANGED one day to
hear of new remedy called Dodd's
Kidney Pills, that was said to be .
splendid medicine for women's weak
ness. She determined to try some
and soon found herself getting better.
She kept ON with the pills and was
cured Speaking of her case, Mrs.
Markison says
81 can and do praise Dodd's Kidney
Pills as a remedy for female weakness.
They are the best medicine | have
ever known, and have done me .

Former Boer General Appreciated
Compliment Paid His People.
General Christian De Wet. formerly
the fighting commandant in the Boer
army and nicknamed ''the fox" be-
cause of the many cunning stratagems
he employed to outwit the British is
now in this country. Before he left
south Africa an American correspond
ent asked the general why he did not
join hands with the Beers who were
going to America to form a colony.
I've heard of your country" said
De Wet, grumly. "A traveller told me
that what an American throws away
in a year would support a dozen
Cinnamon families during that time"
True, said the correspondent, "and
If that which would support twelve
Chinese families were accepted by one
Doe. he would not be able at the end
of year to defend himself against
one of the heather"
De Wet appreciated the compliment.
Perhaps" he said, more pleasantly,
''the traveller meant that the discard
ed toothpicks of the Americans would
make the chop sticks of the Chi
nese"
Perhaps" said the correspondent,
proud Of having conquered the fierce
warrior.

Automobiles and Potatoes.

Rapid progress is being made with
the preliminary plans for the produc-
ton of alcohol on a large scale in
Ireland for motor purposes, to which
the department of agriculture in Ire
land is now turning it's attention.
Early next year it is hoped that what
is practically new industry-the
making of alcohol from potatoes on a
large scale-will be in full swing in
Ireland. With one exception all the
petroleum consumed in this country
is foreign product and the supply is
limited. Alcohol, on the other hand.
is much cheaper, can be produced in
unlimited quantity from the potato
and will drive car just as fast, IL
the mechanism be slightly modified.
1t is probable that an international
alcohol competition" will be held in
Ireland next year, each car to use
alcohol of its own country's manufac-
ture.

Youth and Vocation.

A youth, remarks Success, should
not choose a vocation merely because
he thinks he will attain distinction or
make money in it. Above his ambition
to become great merchant, lawyer,
statesman, physician, artist or must
clan, should be desire to become a
noble man. Other things being equal.
he should choose that vocation which
offers the largest opportunity for
growth, and which will keep pushing
his horizon little farther and farther
away from him. There are many call
lngs that do not tend to develop a
man and keep him growing after the
first few years. The discipline in
them is only a repetition of the exer-
else of certain faculties. There is no
pushing out, no variety of experience.

ORIGIN.
OF a Famous Human Food.

The Story of great discoveries or In
yentions is always of interest.
An active brain worker who found
himself hampered by lack of bodily
strength and vigor and could not
carry out the plans and enterprises
he knew how to conduct was led to
study various foods and their effects
upon the human system. In other
words before he could carry out his
plans he had to find food that would
carry him along and renew his physi-
cal and mental strength.
He knew that q food that was a
brain and nerve builder, (rather than
mere fat maker), was universally
needed. He knew that meat with the
average man does not accomplish the
desired results. He knew that the
soft gray substance in brain and
nerve centers is made from Albumen
and Phosphate of Potash obtained
from food. Then he started to solve
the problem.
Careful and extensive experiments
evolved GrapeNuts, the now famous
lOuu- 1Tdpe-Nuls coUIal1 the Drain
and nerve building food elements in
condition for easy digestion. The re.
suit OF eating Grape Nuts daily is
easily seen in a marked sturdiness
and activity of the brain and nervous
system, making it a pleasure for one
to carry on the daily duties without
fatigue or exhaustion. The food Is
in no sense stimulant but Is simply
food which reneWs and replaces the
daily waste of brain and nerves.
Its flavor Is charming and being
fully and thoroughly cooked at the
factory 1t is served instantly with
cream.
The signature of the brain worker
spoken Of C. W. Post, is to be seen
on each genuine package of Grape
Nuts.

Some Pointers on Trousers.

A mans trousers, when tailo.

nearly always pressed with the ends
turned up, but in the winter they are
pressed turned down. A tailor says:
Trousers are pressed turned up In
the summer because 1t is presumed
that every man wears them turned up
In this season. He wears them so be.
cause in the summer he wears low
shoes, and trousers that are not

But as we turned to face the aisle,
A shadow crossed your winning smile.
And. In a pew in plainest view,
I saw the other girl.
Dear Rose. you are a charming wifei
For ten glad years you've made my lffs

Or wear an unbecoming gown.

of the country, who dig from it yearly
tons of alum. The mountain is not

1000 feet. The alum is obtained by
quarrying large blocks of stone, which
are first heated in great furnaces and
then In watts filled with boiling water.
The alum crystalizes and forms a lay.
