hundred dollars that had been
there for half a decade.
Pm going to stay" he remarked
to the cashier. "That money has
been saved until we were sure that
the West suited us. It does. When
I left Pennsylvania determined
to put aside enough to take us back
any time in ten years. We don't want
to go back now.
It was typical sen timent, the ont.
come of trial, and it has been ex.
pressed in similar terms by multi.
tudes who have sought prosperity
and found it.
In the recent history of the vast
granary of the nation-the West
one fact stands out wildly: the day
of the speculation and experiment
has passed away; substantial busi.
ness progress, based on plans OF
permanency, has succeeded it. This
great underlying feature of the
plains region, which means go
much for any section, is potent with
promise. 1t meant a great deal when
the Western people ceased talking
about going back East" and be.

finding it necessary to employ quar-
antIne measures, should be careful
to employ such measures as will
stand the test OF law. The rules
and regulations lin regard to the
quarantining of small pox, scarlet
fever and diphtheria are very strict
and should be obeyed to the letter.
The notice should be made out of
yellow cloth or card board not less
than eighteen inches square and
placed one on each principal en-
trance to the house under ban. The
lettering must be large enough to
be easily read at a distance of
twenty or thirty feet; and only the
words Small Pox or Scarlet Fever
need to be printed on them, and
when once placed can only be re-
moved on the order of the physi-
clan of the Board of Health after
proper fumigation and distinction
has taken place and in houses
where there is case of small pox,
only in not less than forty days
from the commencement of the at
tack, when the above regulations
have been complied with. Our CITY

above diseases but it is lust as
