Library has been patronzed freely of late.
Some afternoons between sixty and seventy
books are sent out. There is large call
for sea stories and probably there is no
people who can better appreciate good
sea story than ours. The books are free to
all and we hope there will continue to be
many readers. Those of us who like to
indulge in long walks through the woods
and over the hills have been handicapped
by this snow. We could feed the. / birds

English sparrow has gotten here; and isn't
it too bad, for he is a ighter-driving away

who lack his aggressivenesS.

WOLVES HELD AT BAY.

A Greedy Pack of Ills Surround a Clergy
mans Wife. Through the Arrival of Time
ly Aid She Escapes from the Terrors of a
Prolonged Siege.
Certain encounters with physical ills re-
semble very closely the terror of an attack
by ravenOus beasts, which crowd around
their victim in gradually narrowing circle,
filling him with prolonged dread of GER
tain destruction in the end.
The Rev. w. A. Denton of Girard, Craw-
ford county, Kansas, tells the following
story of a narrowing experience of one of
the members of his family: "My wife" he
says, WAS aSSailed for fifteen years by a
combination of ailments following the birth
of our first child. Female weakness, rheu-
matism, dropsical tendencies, Indigestion,
torpid liver, nervousness, insomnia and ir-
regularity of the hearts action were among
them. The food she ate fer,nented in her
stomach, she had frequent dizzy spells, her
limbs were swollen, her nerves were quite
shattered and she was many times on the
verge of heart failure.
"Physicians gave her only temporary re-
lief. Her youngest sister had used Dr.. Will
llams' Pink Pills for Pale People with bene-
tit for stomach difficulty. My brether-in-law
had found them helpful for heart trouble
and several neighborS had given favorable
reports about them. Finally my wife was
lnuucea 20 Try them. She experienced IN
provement almost at once and continued to
use them. They relieved her sleepessness,
the smothering sensations have disappear
ed and have not annoyed her for years.
They freed her from stomach trouble and
the dropsical tendency was mitigated The
progress of the rheumatic affection, which
had begun to make her fingers crooked, was
stayed and the pain was banished. In every
respect they gave her more help than any
other remedy she had ever used, and she is
to-day in better health than for many years.
"Dr Williams Pink Pills have earned
our full confidence. They are our staple
household remedy, and | am in the habit of
recommending them to all who suffer from
troubles like those which afflicted my wife. -
All the elements necessary to give new
life and richness to the blood and restore
shattered nerves are contained, in con-
densed form, in DR.. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People. They are also a specific
for troubles peculiar to females, such as
suppression, irregularities and all forms of
weakness. They build up the blood and
restore the glow of health to pale and sal
low cheeks. In men they effect a radical
cure in all cases arising from mental strain,
overwork or excuses of whatever nature.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are sold in boxes
(never in bulk) at fifty cents Il box or six
boxes for two dollars and fifty cents, and
may be had of all druggists, or direct by
mail from Dr. Williams Medicine Company,

KILLED ON -
BY THIRD RAIL
MangIed Remains Of Man Found
on Track Of Second Avenue
Road Near the Willis Avenue
Station.

The body Of Thomas o'Brien. fright
fully mangled. was taken from tbs
Elevated Railroad track about one hun
drcd and fifty feet south Of the willis
avenue station Of the Second avenue
line shortly before 2 o'clock this morn
ing. Whether o'Brien was shocked and
killed by the third ran or struck by g
passing train Is a matter for the Cor.
oner's physician to determine. 1t Is be-
lieved that the third rail killed him,
for the mangling of the body can be
accounted for in the fact that the train
whose motorman discovered the body
ran over 1t before coming to a stop.
o'Brien was a brakeman employed on
the New York. New Haven and Hart.

It Ii surmised that when within LEO
feet of the Willis avenue station q

pass over to the south track. In doing
he must have stepped on the third

OOMUCH RED TAPE.

The general land Office of the
United States has made a decided
mistake according to the general
belief Of the people in this sec
tion Of the country, in making the
conditions Of homesteading
harder than ever before. The
ruling which compels the inves-
tigation Of each final entry made
ontside Of the district land Office
by the special agent, will work
hardship to many settlers. The
result will be that the special
agent will be unable to take
care Of his work and7it will get
twoor three years behind. The
settler will become discouraged
3 1
with this condition of affairs and
be compelled to go to the district
land Office. In this district, for
instance, this will work a great
hardship. If a settler at War
road wishes to make final proof
it will cost him 500 for car fare
and hotel expense for himself
and witnesses. If we are not
mistaken not the people of the
northwest will raise such a pro
test thatit will be heard even in
Washington. Crookston Times.
