His Last Hope Realized.
[From the Sentinel, Gebo. Mont. 1

In the first opening OF Oklahoma to
settlers in 1889, the editor Of this pa
per was among the many seekers after
fortune who made the big race one
fine day In April. During his travel
ing about and afterwards his camping
upon his claim, he encountered much
bad water, which, together with the
severe heat, gave him a very severe
diarrhoea which itseemed almost i'm
possible to check, and along in June
the case became SO bad he expected to
die. One day one of his neighbors
brought him one small bottle Of Cham.
berlainS Culic, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy as last hope. A big dose was
given him while he was rolling about
on the ground in great agony, and in
few minutes the dose was repeated.
The good effect of the medicine was
soon noticed and within an hour the
patient was taking his flrstsound sleep
for fortnight. That one little bot
tile worked a complete cure, and he
cannot but feel grateful. The season
for bowel disorders being at hand sug-

CRESCO OFFICER.
Opinions on an interesting local
question.

The following public statement
given by an officer is true in every
particular. Enquiry is courted-the
more doubt the more need for conclu-
sive convincing proof. Cresco people
have positive proof in the opinions
held and the experiences passed
through by scores OF we'll known citi-
zens. This resident of Ccesco only
re-echoes the sentiments expressed
weekly in this newspaper by local
citizens.
W. F. Moulton, city officer, says:

advising the use of Doan's Kidney
Pills, for have the best OF reason
for so doing. For some time con-.
slant dull aching across the loins

ever let up it changed to sharp twinges
in the kidneys, particularly so if l
stopped or lifted anything. AS might
be expected from a man whose kid
neys were not healthy difficulty with
the kidney secretion was plainly evil
dent indicated by discoloration and ir-
regularity at night. Being exposed
to all kinds of weather and contract
ing colds which seated themselves in
the loins may have been the original
cause of the disturbance, at any rate
being subject to these conditions GER
tainly aggravated the attacks when
they occurred. i tried more than one
remedy-all guaranteed to cure kid

motely in the distance the day l went

Before l had finished the treatment

the backache ceased. At present ]

". 0. W. Monument dwelling.

Sunday afternoon, July 3rd, is the
date set by Cresco Camp III, w. 0.
w., for the unwilling of the monu-
ment recently erected in st. Joseph 8
Cemetery, Cresco, by that order, to
the memory of one Of their deceased
members, John Rostratter.
The Woodmen of the World Is the
only order to erect monument over
the grave of each and every deceased
member and unveil it with q suitable
and beautiful ceremony. The idea
was given the founder of the order,
Joseph Cullen Root, the author of all
Woodcraft, on visit to the graves of
some of his friends, prominent in var
ious fraternities, whose graves were
and still are unmarked; and this sad
state of affairs so impressed him that
he resolved to embody this monu-
ment feature in the plan Of his best
loved order, the w. y. w. The idea
is full of both sentiment and practi-
cability and as it becomes better
known and appreciated is tas t becom-
ing the strong feature of the order.
In pursuance of this custom the To-
cal camp has set the above mentioned
day for the unwilling, and has secured
State Manager ]. w. Geiger, of Cedar
Rapids, to make the address. The
unwilling ceremonies will be conduct
ed by the camp according to the ritu
al of the order and appropriate selec
tions will be sung by male guar
tette. The complete program will bt
given in q later issue of this and thu
other city papers.
An effort is being made to secure
Joseph Cullen Root, the founder o
both the NJ. w. A. and the w. o. W.
for an address also, and a partia
promise to that effect has been givel
by him.
Mr.. Rostratter is the first memhe
of this camp to die, and the monu
ment is the first to be unveiled il

A Riverside Picnic.

Mesdames II. T. Reed and q. E.
Tomas gave picnic on Tuesday on
the Riverside picnic grounds at
Vernon Springs in honor Of Mrs. Nc
Cornell, probably the most universal
favorite of all the wives of pastors
ever located in charge of a Cresco
church. There we're thirty-four
Cresco ladies present and it was the
good fortune of the editor to run onto
this group of ladies just as they were
seated at as fine a spread as ever
graced the banquet board. OF course
we cheertully and promptly accepted
an invitation to join with them in
doing justice to the appetizing meal
which had been bountifully provided.
Mrs. II. @. Salisbury had supplemented
the supper with bountiful supply of
deliciously favored ice cream.
And now word about Riverside
picnic grounds, These grounds are
located just west OF the mill; are pro-
vided with permanent tables and suit
able seats for forty persons; q we'll,
furuishedswith good pump, provides
an ample supply Of pure water right
on the grounds; is furnished with a
good cooking range for the use OF
picnic parties, the grove just across
the road is fitted up for the enjoyment
ofpleasure parties and will be provided
with swings and the paraphenalia OF
pleasure part ties, desiring days out
ing. The closely shaver lawn about
the tables on the picnic grounds is
attractive and beautiful. What are
his terms for the use of these grounds
for pleasure parties we are unable tt
state, but certainly for the fitting W
and keeping them in repair it should
be sufficient to maintain them ii
readiness for the public use contem
plated. With such excellent mean
for a days outing, pleasure parties
3 might 60 farther and find less meanI
for good time, and at much greater
! iexpenSe.
