South Heart.

There are many people in the county
who have never visited South Heart. II
miles west of Dickinson. and some may
not know that John ]. BARLEY, a former
Northern Pacific engineer, is keeping a
store at that place. MIR. and Mrs. Bart
ley moved from Dickinson to South
Heart about W. years ago. For several
years the place did not support even
4 general store and the residents Of that
locality we're compelled to journey to
Dickinson or Belfeld when they got out
of tea and coffee. Mr.. BARLEY erected
a good store building, with a fine deep
basement, and selected a choice lot OF
merchandise. His business has grown
beyond his expectation, and it is safe to
say that no country store west OF the
Missouri river presents a finer appear
ance than the BARLEY store.
Mr.. Barley carries the honors OF post
master we'll, and is always glad to see
old Dickinson friends.
A few months ago Mrs. BARLEY took
charge of the section house there and
those in Dickinson who have known this
lady for many years will know that the
house is we'll kept. She has IS or It
boarders now and during the summer
had as for a while.
The little Barley girls, five now, are
all well, and three of them are in the VII
lage school, presided over BY Miss Alice
WEIGH.

Mrs. Kennedy presided over the section
house, but some years since they built

in ease and comfort. The boys ar
