AT a recent meeting of the county

~
At a recent meeting of the county
commissioners of Meade county, it is
said that an item reading Ribbons for
the typewriter appeared. One of the
commissioners objected to the paying
of this item. stating that he did not
consider it the business OF Meade county
to furnish cloths for the typewriter.
The deer season opened November
first, and will last one month. The
license for residents in the Black Hills
has been raised from 81 to 81. 80, and $50
for non-residents. No one person is
permitted to kill more than two deer in
u season. There is a penalty of not less
than $50 or more than 500, or imprison-
ment in the county Jail not exceeding
thirty days for any infraction of this
law. Deer hunters have already
started out.
Homesteaders have been coming in
rapidly the past month and the United
States land Office at Pierre has received
more filings than for any past month in
it's history, the total for one mouth
being 461. This means that more than
three and one-half townships Of the
land west of the Missouri river were
taken for the month alone in this office.
AT the same time. the Chamberlain and
Rapid City Offices have beer accepting
many claims. For the last three months
four and one-half townships of the
government land in the Pierre district
have been taken up and the rush for
valuable lands along the new line Of
the Northwestern read has only begun.
AT the rate filings are coming now it
will mean that the man who waits until
next spring will find all the choice
selections gone.
A twelve mile trolley line owned by
the United States government An
electric lighting plant to light one Of the
most beautiful and largest caves in the
world! These are two things for which
Congressman Eben w. Martin of Dead
wood is working and it is likely that he
will introduce a bill at this session Of
congress, appropriating the money and
authorizing the construction of the road
and lighting plant. For several years
ever since he succeeded in having con-
gress pass a law creating the Wind
Cave National park, Congressman Mar
tin has been working for a trolly line to
connect the great cave with Hot Springs
twelve miles distant, and also for q cleo
trio lighting plant to transform the
dark galleries and chambers OF the
cavern into brilliantly lighted places,
their walls sparkling like countless
diamonds. Wind cave has been
explored for about 100 miles and it is
estimated that there are at least 900
miles Of passages and chambers in it.

James Olson, a Sully county farmer
made a shipment of butter to San Fran
cisco, sending fifty pounds. The ship
ping cost was five cents a pound, but as
he says he received sixty cents a
pound, he is satisfied to pay the ship
ping charge.
The Aberdeen Gass company has
installed its new gas holder. The recep-
tacle will hold 10, 600 cubic feet of gas,
more than enough to supply the city's
needs for twenty four hours, should
accidents occur to prevent the manu-.
~facture of gas for that length OF time.
On Thursday, Nov. 9, a special cleo
ton will be held in Aberdeen to allow
the voters to express their sentiments
upon an electric Lighting proposition.
Two propositions will be voted upon.
One provides for the issuance of $685. 00
in bonds for the construction of a mum.
cipal lighting plant and the other pro
poses that a franchise shall be granted
to the highest bidder for the construc-
ton and operation of an electric light.

The record Of the weather bureau al
Pierre shows that October for this year
was the coolest, and with one exception
the wettest October since the bureau
was established at Pierre. The average
mean temperature for the month being
81 degrees, with the past month show
ing but 40 degrees. The total percipi-
tation for the month was 16i inches,
which has been exceeded but once, and
that but slightly. The result of this is
that the prairie is well soaked for the
beginning of winter, and will be frozen
TO a gaeater depth than usual, holding
the moisture in the ground to assist in
starting vegetation n xt spring.
The advertising car that has been
travelling throughout the middle and
western states, filed with ores and farm
products of the Black Hills has just
returned home and is being dismantled
In Belle Fourche. 1t was one of the
most successful advertising schemes
e put out from the Black Hills.
Thousands Of people visited the exhibits
and the literature written for the occa-
sion was spread broadcast wherever the
car went. In a number of places the
al happened to arrive at cities during
carnivals, which helped to advertise
very broadly. 1t is proposed to make
this a advertising scheme an annual
feature. Il viii be done on a larger
scale next summer and more territory
will be covered. Eastern people seem
to have been surprised that the Black
Hills could produce such wonderful
vegetation.

The use of those so-called pacifers,
too, is another source Of dental troubles,
and this scribe would joyfully see their
manufacture and sale prohibited by act
OF Legislature. They are seldom or
never properly cleansed, the rubber Of
which they are made is porous and alb
serbs all sorts of germs and bacteria
and their use is almost invariably at
tended by sore mouth, bad breath and
digestive and intestinal troubles.
There are so many excellent antiseptlc
solutions on the market designed espe-
cially to assist in the care of the mouth
and teeth that mention OF any one Of
them rather than another would be in

When the little girl has reached, say,

Teach the small child this, and her

Little disorders Of the stomach have a
marked effect upon the teeth. Sour
stomach will soon give rise to tartar on
the teeth; and this is best removed in the
early stages by a denhfrice Of powdered
pumice stone. This can readily be OBJ
/ tanned Of any druggist; but wise pre-
caution is to run il through fine oolung
lcloth-or even a fine soft cheesecloth

moved. The teeth must be thoroughly
brushed with this, and care must be
taken to remove every particle OF the
pumice stone. since it is especially de-
| str7nctive to the enamel. The mouth
must be well rinsed, and plenty of soft
bread, corn pone or cake eaten after
ward. so that there is not a trace Of the
dentifrice remaining. If the tartar has
been permitted to grow, then it will need
the skill Of a good dentist to remove 1t

In spite Of all that is said against II,
a finely powdered charcoal makes the
hest dentifrice. No need to use It oftener
than two or at the most three times

trace of it after using. If there is the

, what the degree Of her charm may be.
While we usually have to accept what
ever shape of face, feature and form it
has pleased Dame Nature to bestow
upon us, the question Of ones teeth is
entirely a matter of training and educa-
ton.
One often hears It said that poor teeth
are an inheritance from either the faith
ers OF mothers side of the family. THAT
all such and such a family's teeth decay
very early. While on the contrary. so
and-so's family have always had perfect
teeth. no tOothache or neuralgia, and
kept their teeth in good and healthy pres
ervation 10 a ripe old age.
Inheritance, Of course, may. do much
either for or against a sound set of
teeth; but education viii do a great deal
more. Even a poor Inheritance in the
matter Of teeth may be so improved upor

The little rosebud Of a mouth must be
swabbed out several times daily with
soft rag squeezed out in boiled water,
in which a half a teaspoonful Of boric
'acid has been dissolved. Just as soon as
'dentitiOn begins, each little tooth must
,be carefully cleansed after each feeding.
The soreness and tenderness Of the gums
'can readily be relieved by gentle rub
bing with the finger, due care having
first been taken to see that the finger
is ''surgically clean;" that is, that some
good ascepucizing fluid has been used to
wash the finger with. Never put your
}finger into baby's mouth without careful
Sly washing it first; infection Of more
than one kind has often been traced to
this practice.
I Letting baby suck and chew on stale
crust or a stale piece of corn pone will
do a great deal to assist in bringing
the teeth through; and the teeth that
have arrived will also be benefited by
this very simple means. In stale bread

turbance in the little stomach has eyapo-
rated, the starch granules have ripened
and burst and the bread itself is in the
best condition to be digested and ab-
sorbed into the system.
Just a little lime water In the milk
will often aid in establishing good teeth,
and where the little princess's first teeth
have not been especially good, either as
to color, shape or arrangement, the mat
ter can readily be corrected by careful
attention, first to the cleanliness of the
mouth and teeth, and next by diet.
Upon the care Of the first teeth will
depend the quality and the beauty Of the
second or permanent set. Only too
often do even the wisest of mothers
imagine that the first teeth do not re-
quire dentists care, arguing that as they
are but temporary it were money thrown
away to see to their filling and the like.
If the first set be in any way irregular
or faulty the defect must be corrected
Immediately, for "as the twig is bent, so
/ is the tree inclined;" and as the first
teeth are faulty or perfect so will the
teeth that the little beauty carry with
her through life be affected.

that the tendency to early decay need
not run beyond a single generation.
The old saying that to make gentle
man you have to begin with his grand
fathers, nine generations back, might
just as well be applied to the attain
.ment Of perfect teeth.
The old Southern mammies were wise
in their day and generation; and they
brought up their young charges 10 take
most particular care Of the teeth and
lips and breath.
The day that dear little Miladi arrives
in this best of all possible worlds, is none
too soon to begin with the care of her
mouth. If the mouth. the oral cavity
as the doctors and dentists seem to pre-
fer to call it, be not kept absolutely
sweet and clean the chances for good
