Dowry of Daughters in EnaIand.

The dowry of daughters appears
to have become burning problem in
England, where the ever-growing sur.
plus of women continually increase
the difficulty of finding means of
livelihood for girls who either from
choice or chance are thrown upon
their own resources. The hopeless
outlook OF the spinster is social
problem which cries out for solution,
and even for the married woman
dowry is thought to be almost equally
necessary. Without it the wife is ia
the position of hireling dependent
entirely upon the generosity OF her
husband. How the problem is to be
solved is another matter. and Lon.
don paper urges that the subject be
constantly discussed, that it be made
the motive of novels. plays. sermons.
lectures on economics, etc. that it
he talked about not occasionally out
all the time, until some remedy is
found for what is social blot oa The

RYDALE'S TONIC
A REAL CURE FOR
MI A A RI A

1t has recently been discovered that
the germs that produce Malaria, breed
and multiply in the intestines and from
there spread throughout the system
by means of the blood. This fact ex-
plains why Malaria is hard to cure by
the old method of treatment Ouinine.
Iron, etc, stimulate the nerves and
build up the blood, but do not DESTROY
the germs that cause the disease.
Rydale's Tonic has n specific effect
upon the intestines and bowels. freeing
them from all disease breeding mi
crobes. 1t also kills the germs that
infest the veins and arteries. 1t drives
from the blood all poisonous matter
and makes it rich and healthy.
RYDALE'S TONIC is a blood
builder, nerve restorer, and Il Malaria
destroyer. Try it, it will not disap-
point you.

g>t sewerage for the city. Moth
ing has been done and the
Press would like to know why
the representatives of the people
have wholly disregarded a re
quest which the owners of the
property to be affected were al
most unanimous in asking. 1t
Dickinson is to continue prosper
Gus and its residents are to retain
health and have the conveniences
tor which they r willing to pay.
the city must have sewerage and
waterworks. There are men in
the city who want to make per-
manent improvements in new
rick blocks and will do so Just as
soon as a system of sewerage and
waterworks is under way. Out
side capital will also seek invest
ment here in the erection of new
mercantile blocks when the afore-
said Improvements are inaugur-
ated. but not before. In the face
of these facts why should the city
council stand in the way of the
city's progress?
The Dickinson press., 1904-01-23

CAPITALISTS have never sought
investments in Dickinson which
may seem strange to some in
view of the high rate of interest
money commands. The princi-
pal reason for this is the lament
able fact that the city has not
~inaugurated a permanent system
of waterworks which is the frs,
thing investors ask about when
they come into the city. The
PRESS knows of men of means
who want to build handsome
blocks in Dickinson as soon as
the city makes the proper
move tor waterworks. New bust
ness blocks means that there will
be larger and better stocks Of
merchandise carried in the city
stores and this in turn will be ar
advantage to every person living
here. Doing something that viii
certainly interest capitalists to
make investments here also mean:
that the rate of interest will bt
lowered, and this is also some
thing that everybody wants. Per
manent improvements, such a
cannot be had without waterworks
means, too, that fire insurance
rates will be reduced and thou
sands of dollars that are annually
sent away in premiums will b.
kept at home. Dickinson canno
afford to delay longer in getting
down to business in the matter o
waterworks.

have need of funds to pay the expenses
Of getting out the necessary data in
phamplet form in relation to the FEAST
oility Of starting irrigation works along
some of the streams of North Dakota.
The executive committee Of tie North
Dakota Irrigation Congress have sug
gested to the county commissioners Of
each county in the state that they ap-
propriate at least 500 to help defray the
expenses in placing the matter properly
before Congress and the different de-
partments at Washington, D. c. Only a
few counties have yet responded to their
request.
If the people in North Dakota want
that 100000 that is now in the irriga-
ton fund, spent in North Dakota, they
should assist the executive committee
Of the Irrigation Congress in getting a
proper statement of facts before the
officials at Washington.

gress that every voter in North Dakota

On the testimony of the owners

On the testimony of the owners
and employees of the 1roquois
theater given recently, the vic
tins of the terrible disaster of Dec.
Al lost their lives because of the
carelessness of the proprietors
and the ignorance and cowardice
of the employees. Eleven of the
exits from the theater we're lock-
ed or bolted, and men, women and
children died by the hundreds
because they could not get
through the doors over which was
the mocking word Exit. The
skylights were wired down and
nobody was charged with the duty
of opening the stage ventilators.
No fire drill was ever held in the
theater and none of the employees
had ever been instructed what to
do in case of fire. So little dis
cipline was there that some of the
ushers fed at the first cry of fire.
So, held in front by doors that
would not open, the audience was
suffocated by a fame started on
the stage, that could not escape
to the outer air because the VENT,
lators we're not opened, that wa.
given access to the auditorium be-
cause the asbestos curtain would
not work and that was forced tc
its deadly work by the draft Great
