The Key that Unlocks the Door Il
Long Living.

The men of e~ighty-five and ninety
years Of age are not the rotund well
fed. but thin, spare men who live on a
slender diet. Be as careful as he will,
however. a man past middle age Will
occasionally eat too much or OF some
article OF food NOT suited TO his cOnsti-
tuition, and will need a dose Of Cham
berlain's Stomach and Liver Tablets
to cleanse and invigorate his stomcf
and regulate his liver and bowels
When this Is done there is no reason
why the average man should not live

Gently saw a letter from Caspar HAITI,
written to Mayor Aldrich, in which
he said that he expected to build on

Mr. HAITI said further, that he was
forwarding plans and specifications
for the building to Mr.. Aldrich and
requested him to keep them where
they might be seen and inspected by
contractors who might desire to bid
on the work.
Mr.. HAITI, as is generally known,
owns the property on the corner of
Main Street and First avenue oppo.

Said to be Planning Extension
Across River from Pierre
or Forest City
Milwaukee Stole March
on Them-Did not Take
Talk Seriously

This paper learns from reliable
authority that the Northwestern is
now planning to build across and
west of the river from either Pierre
or Forest City this summer. This in
formation comes almost directly
from n Of the very few residents
of this state who travels in a private
car on the C. & n. w.
According to this gentleman, the
Northwestern did not take the talk
Of Milwaukee railroad building seri-
ously and did not believe the Milwau-
kec intended crossing 1T Chamberlain
until the work was actually under
way. AS this official put it. the Mil
Waukee Stole amarcho them. He said
furthermore, that if the Northwest
ern built from Forest City west it
would also build a connecting line
from Forest City to Pierre.
Ihls much is undoubtedly tue: so
long as each road went no further
than the river and each had. there
lore, an equal show for the traffic
from west of the river, a balance was
maintained.
Inc extension of the Milwaukee
has upset it. Just exactly what the
next move will be it is hard to tell
but it will be odd if the Northwestern
does not get into the game.

They will be all black and trimmed
with black braid. The caps. will be
patterned after the military style
and will have IS. D. S. b. and

The selection of such neat uniforms
shows that the band is not in the or.
binary class. The uniforms will cost
SIS a piece and thirty were ordered.
The boys hope to realize enough on

Tuesday
The Question OF Municipal
Lighting May be a Live
Issue

The democrats and republicans of
the city have put their candidates up
to be voted for at the annual city

indications are that there will be
a spirited contest ia all the wards,

certain to creep in and occupy the
center Of the stage.
In the first ward Alderman Hutch
ms has been nominated for reelection,
and the republicans have putup Frank
Clark. For member of the school
board, James Westmoreland will
make the run against f. D. Camp

Stierwalt and Chas. St1achan.
In the second ward the republicans
have got AL Ward into politics by
putting his name on the ticket for al
derman, and Fred Korte has been
named for reelection. w. G.. Wells
has been nominated by petition and
around the fight for aldermanic hon
oTs in this ward the principal inte-
rests in the election will center. The
socialist candidates are Robt. Kirk
and S. H. Cranmer.
The democrats in the third ward
nominated W. f. Hoberton for alder
man and DR.. D. E. Arnold for member
of the school board. John Sanders
of the News was nominated for alder
man by the republicans and J. H.
Suttle for member of the school board.

Monday evening the question of ex.
tending the watermains this year
was discussed and it was decided not
to make further extensions this year
at the expense of the city. The COM
mittee reported that there were I'M
expended funds on hand barely sutti-
Gent to cover the cost of the new
artesian we'll and closed their report
with the following recon mendation:
"Your committee, however, believ-
ing that the needs and accommoda-
tion of property owners should be as
nearly met as possible, would recon-
mend that whenever a majority Of
property owners shall petition for an
extension of the watermains along
any street or avenue such extension
may be made in accordance. with the
provisions of Article Is, of the Poll
tical Code of South Dakota, govern
ing municipal improvements, and the
costs taxed against the AUDITING prop
erty as provided therein, with the IN
d%erstanding that the city will refund
the principal of such tax when funds
are available from the income fund.
Your committee begs leave to Of
fer the following resolution:
Resolved, that no extensions of
watermains be made this year except
what is absolutely necessary to con-
meet the new well with the system of
the city, unless the same are made in
accordance with Article l6, cited in
this report"

Synopsis of Lecture Delivered
by Prof. McCrackan,
Sunday
Christian Science an Inspiration
Common Ground Between
Science and Religion

This term, Christian Science, is
nothing short of an inspiration; for
what, I ask you, is the conflict which
is supposed to be before the world of
ideas today, the irrepressible conflict,
as it has sometimes been called? Is
it not the seeming conflict between
revelation and reason, between
Christianity and science? The pull
pit, the press and university are con-
stantly searching for a common
ground for these two factors. Earn
est men, in their most earnest mo.
ments, are striving to reconcile them.
Christian Science has effected this
long-sought reconciliation, by proving
that there is no conflict between rev.
elation and spiritual reason, and none
between Christianity and divine
science, but that the two coincide
and are based, not on the evidence of
physical sense, but on the higher evil
dence of Spirit.
Christian Science is showing that
Christianity, in order to fulfil it's be-
nign mission, must be understood to
be truly scientific, and thai the term
science must be applied to the order
ly working of Gods laws and must
therefore, be essentially Christian in
meaning.
The scriptures tell us that God
made man in His image and likeness.
The Scriptures also speak Of God as
Father, and Of nan as offspring or
child, and this glorious concept has
given rise to the understanding of the
Fatherhood of God, to which Chris
tian Science has added the concept of
the Motherhood of God as well, there
by completing and rounding out the
idea of the Godhead as a complete
Parent. If all men are the children
of One Parent, and that Parent is
Love, as the Scriptures declare, and
if that Parent is infinite and just, it
follows that God has endowed His
children with divine rights, and that
these rights are distributed justly and
equitably, in accordance with adivine
plan.
Christian Science has been before
the public for some thirty years, and
during that time it has hea'ed vir-
tually every disease known to man. At
this very hour, in various parts of the
world, it's healing results are being
manifested, and every form of evil is
yielding to it's benign ministrations
On all hands people speak of it's dy-
manic force. 1t has rescued those
addicted to vices of various kinds. 1t
has made chronic invalids sound of
limb and: CHEEKY of disposition. 1t
has relieved mankind from all suffer-
ing. 1t has removed the incapacities
and disabilities into which mankind
falls through sin and ignorance. 1t
has reunited families, and is saving
little children from sudden calamity.
II God is really eternal Life, then
the real man must be immortal and
ind%estructible.
