my wife suffered intensely from
dyspepsia, complicated with torpid

her former self. Then she tried Elec-

CONFINEMENT.
Like Patience, 1t Is q Virtue, aid Con-
tributes to the Joy and Peace
fulnes9 of Life.

Contentment, like patience. is a vir-
tue. AS a rule, no matter how much
one may gain, We still wish for more.
Once the spirit Of avarice is aroused,
it seems almost impossible TO rise
above it. We seldom realize that
though we should gain the entire
world we would still crave for more.
While in a measure we eve the
progress of our American nation to
the progressive and independent spirit
of our forefathers, as a rule cur lives
are happier il we accept our situation
and the current of our lives in gem
eral as the will OF God. In the path
of life there are ~innumerable happen
ings which are attributed to Provi-
dence, but often our troubles are the
result of our own carelessness or in
difference.
AS far as genuine happiness goes
there is more real contentment in
the humble little home where love
is the only reward than in some of
the most luxurious mansions. What
we need, urges Miss Jean c.. Gulick, in
New York Observer, is courage. We
may as well accept our trials cheer
fully as any other way, and make lip
our minds to arise and shine" To
shine is not always possible, but to
rise above a state of envy and depres-
sion we can and we must if we have
any desire to be happy. The hero
does not always die for the cause Tor
which he fights. Often the n who
lives for it is every inch as much a
hero.
Ii may be that in our simple, I'M
eventful lives we possess something
which our richer neighbor mas not.
it may be something far beyond his
If we cultivate a cheerful, I'M
and contented spirit and make
the firm resolve that whatever hap
pens we will be true. then we will have
what few possess-contentment.

THOUGHTS FOR QUIET HOUR.

An important field" IS a heart
ache to the man who is not big enough
to fill it.
When conscience rings the alarm on
the coast-line of danger there is hope
for the tempted.
The mar who is useful will always
win the highest prize over him who is
merely ornamental.
He who is ashamed to bend his
knees in prayer must bend his back to-
the rod of the Smiter.
The wise nan adjusts his theories to
the facts; the fool manipulates the
facts to his theories.
There is a well of healing not far
from every Sychar, and at that well
there is a Saviour waiting.
Hope may be found at the bottom
of Pandora's box, but never at the
bottom of a beer schooner.
No man is immune from sin, but
the grace of God rightly applied will
prevent Il from being fatal

THE MAN WITH
THE SCYTHE.

He watched the strong, athletic fig
ure as it swung from side to side, with
something like admiration in his lazy
eyes.
"Joyel" he muttered, "the fellow
does H. in good form. After all, these
American peasants-working people, l
mean-are superior to our English.
He left his easel, which had been
placed in position for a study of a CEN
tury-old oak, and went to the fence,
raising two fingers as he did so to the
young man, who was swinging toward
him with the long, regular strokes Of
the mower.
But instead of dropping the scythe
ana coming forward with hand to
foreiock, as an English peasant would
co, this fellow merely nodded toward
the uncut swath ahead without break
ing the regularity of his stroke.
Dc Masters frowned a little, then
forgot his irritation in watching the
lines Of the figure as it swung nearer.
"%Jove!" he muttered again, IAN
American sovereign of the soil! I'll
put him in the foreground of the oak,
with his scythe( They shall typify
time and age and strength"
His fingers had brought up a coin
from his pOcket-now, almost uncon-
sciously, the coin was permitted to fall
back. and a larger one was brought up
in its place. 1t seemed more fitting.
The smaller would have done for Eng
land.
AS the fingers came from the pocket
with the coin conspicuously in sight
there was a last long s-s-s-swish of the
scythe, and the young man was stand
ing by the fence wiping his face with
his handkerchief.
Now, what is it, sir?" he asked
pleasantly. 81 did not want to stop
back there on account of losing so
much time. I'm tasking myself to fin
ish this field to-day, and it's going to
be sharp work. You see. there are a
lot of young trees in the field, and we
cont like to put in a machine for fear
of bruising them; SC I'm doing it in
the ol6-fsshioned way. You're the
English artist, | take it, who is stop
ping at the house for a few days?"
yes" quickly, land that is what |
want you for, to pose with your scythe
for a study of the old oak"
The coin was raised temptingly, but

he die not appear to see it.

1905 Crop
In North Dakota, Including All
Grains and Corn, Is Largest
in It's History.
EARLY ESTIMATES
By Speculative Interests Were In
correct Because They We're Not
Based on Entire State Acreage.

Speculation relative to the yield of
North Dakota crops has been rife for
some time and various estimates have
been made by individuals and trade
papers that have provoked more or less
discussion.
Crop estimates are too often inf1u-
enced by the opinions and prejudices
of people in the localities visited and
by estimators who may have precon-
ceivod notions as to the conditions pre-
vailing in. the territory covered. Many
neous ideas that prevail with regard
to the Importance that should be given
to a particular locality, in, some state
or territory.
: North Dakota is particularly good
example of the statement just made.
The Red river valley has been known
as a great wheat-producing section for
many years, and only ten years ago
two-thirds of the wheat acreage Of the
. state. was found in the six counties
lying on the Dakota side Of the Red
. river. Such being the case, the con-
dition of wheat in the valley almost
made the condition for the entire state:
{ Consequently crop estimators visited
the valley anu DaSeu Inelr eStlmdCeS
on valley conditions. Today the six
valley counties contain less than one
third Of the wheat acreage of the state,
and an estimate based on valley. con-
ditions alone would be erroneous and
misleading.
i The Importance of North Dakota as a
spring wheat state attracts considerable
attention to it from the market centers
and for more than two months experts,
many of them in name only, have regu-
larly published their estimates on the
wheat crop.
p, On the tenth of each month the
States department of agricul-
Sture reports on the condition of all i'm
portant crops grown in the state. The
government attempts no estimate of the
yield until October, but each month the
trade is RECALLED with what the govern.

Cakes, ~. D., Sept. 19.--If anyone
is at all doubtful about the prosperity
OF Dickey county or her farmers, let
him come here now and listen to the
tale of the thresher.
Peter Gemar, who comes from
Nebraska, bought a section Of i'm
proved land three miles west of Cakes
in 1904, says: /" we got more grain
than [ know what to do with. I've
hauled and shoveled grain for seven
days, and the threshers tell me that
they have been threshing on an aver
age s2,200 bushels a day. I've got
more grain than | would raise in Ne.
braska in five years with the same
amount of expense and labor / asked
him what he would take for his farm,
and he answered: nWell, [ paid $40
an acre for it, have been offered $50,
and do not want to sell. ~
Yesterday, while driving distance
Of fourteen miles southwest of Cakes,
[ met thirty seven teams, most of them
four horse, all loaded with grain and
coming to market. There are three
elevators to haul to on the $780, and
