The Docile Ducks.

In China the duck is much esteemed
% an article Of diet, and what may be
called duck farms are common on
most of the rivers The birds arc
taught to hunt for their own food, and
the rearing Of them costs little. They
are kept in boats with a platform or
deck extending outwards on each side.
These boats are taken to the shallow.
marshy parts by the banks Of tho
streams, and the ducks are then driv.
en- ashore to enjoy themselves in tho
mud flats. So we'll are the birds
trained that at a given signal they
cease eating and follow their leader
back into the boat, where they Is aAs-
Ing the night. Ducks preserved by b.
ing sailed are q favorite food with the
Well-to-do.

that the same train of reasoning

VIZ GA SOA~Vu0 uudt m1L09SOG8 has
on her statute books great manv
very commendable laws which make
her pre-eminently shining star in
the armament Of Columtia's fair
states, and we therefore can point
with pardonable pride to the position
We occupy. made possible by the
good. sound and business Judgment Of
our chosen law makers. However, not
unlike the rest of humanity, our law
makers az q body. are fsllible and
liable to err: Among bankers, I be.
lieve that the opinion obtains that a
very grave defect exists In our laws
regarding the official fling place for
chattel mortgages taken In the ordin.
airy course Of business. Under our
present system all chattel MORTGAGES
are fled for record In tho Office of the
town clerk or Of the village or city
recorder In which the mortgaged
property is located. This being the
case, Yellow Medicine county, for
instance, has at least thirty places
for fling ohattel mortgages and
therein lies the unsatisfaction. In q
very considerable majority of cases

chattel mortgages Is not an unimport.

that should not be made the target
of serious complications through the
failure of our state to provide proper
and safe facilities for the carrying on
of such business. The present fee Of
ten cents for fling is cheap. very
cheap. with resultant and corre-
spondtngly cheap service. We all be-
lieve in the old axiom "Whatever IL
worth doing at all, IL worth doing

following:
Make the Office Of the County Reg.
lister of Deeds the sole and only legal
place Of record for ohattel mortgages
and their satisfactions, with hlirg
fee :.of 65c or SOC. This, believe,
would insure quick, efficient and sat-

ton. As country banker, consider

Not a Patent l-ledicine.
Hyomei, the Guaranteed Catarrh Cure
Prescribed by Physicians.

No one should confound Hyomei with
the patent medicines that are adver-
tlsed to cure catarrh. 1t is as far su-
perlor to them all as the diamond is
more valuable than cheap glass. The
composition is secret, but Hyomei gives
its formula to all reputable physicians.
Its base is the valuable eucalyptus
oil. famous for its antiseptic qualities.
This is combined with aromatic and
healing gums and balsams, making a
pure liquid, which, when used in the
Hyomei pocket inhaler, fills the air you
breathe with germ-killing, disease-de-
stroying and healing powers that kills
all catarrhal germs there may he in the
throat, nose and lungs.
How foolish it is to try and cure ca
tarrh by swallowing tablets or liquids.
The only natural way to cure this dis
ease and all other diseases of the respir-
atory organs is to breathe Hyomei.
This treatment has been so success
full, curing 80 per cent of all who have
used it, that Hyomei is now sold by
Q. M. Crosby Il Co, under an absolute
guarantee to refund the money if it
does not cure. You run no risk what
ever in buying Hyomei. If it did not
possess unusual powers to cure, it could
not be sold upon this plan.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs 81.
and comprises an inhaler, bottle OF
Hyomei and dropper. The inhaler
will last lifetime; and additional
bottles of Hyomei can be obtained for
so cents.
