MAKE MILLIONS IN RUGS.
Americans Control Many Of the Big
Factories In india.

In 1866 there were manufac-
tpred in India and exported carpets
and rugs to the value of $1,9O0,0O0,
of which 81, 800, 900 in value went to
the United Kingdom and $400 600
in value to the United States. Most
Of the finest rugs that were shipped
to the United States of Indian man
ufacture were made in factories con-
trolled by American capital. One
firm alone controls ten factories, one
each in Kashmir, Hyderabad and
Sikkim, the others being scattered
over two-thirds of India. This firm
employs $4,000 people, half of whom
are females engaged in spinning and
the other half on the hand looms.
Practically all of the rugs made
by this firm are manufactured on
| designs that were worked out in the
United States, and are intended to
meet the American demand. The
colors used are indigenous, purely
vegetable, and are prepared upon
formulas that have been handed
down for centuries from father tt
son. This firm would be glad to dc
their manufacturing in the United
States, but it has been found to b.
impossible to induce any consider
able number of expert rugmakers t.
emigrate to the United States, ever
if there were no legal difficulties il
the way, and it is impossible to in
duce Americans to engage in maxim!
rugs by hand, as they are made il
India, SO that it should be a matte
of genuine pride to Americans t
know that their countrymen ar
leading in the enterprise of rugmak
ing in India and are the first to en-
ter the domain of Thibet to engag
in manufacturing.

IT'S YOUR KIDNEYS.
Don't Mistake the Couse OF
Your Troubles. A Mont
gomery City Citizen
Shows How to Cure
Them.

Many people never suspect their
kidneys. II suffering from a lame,
weak or aching back, they think
it is only a muscular weakness
When urinary trouble sets in they
think it will soon correct itself.
And so it is with all other symp-
toms of kidney disorders. That
is just where the danger lies. You
must cure these troubles or they
will lead to diabetis or Bright's
diseases. The best remedy to use
is Doan's Kidney Pills. It cures
all ills which are caused by weak
or diseased kidneys. Montgom-
cry City people testify to perma-
nent cures.

Thoughts 1t Brought to One Who
Knew 1t as q Boy.
One morning was awakened with
a strange new joy in my mind. 1t
came to me ut that moment with inde-
scribable poignancy, the thought Of
walking barefoot in cool fresh plow
burrows. as l had once done when a
boy. So vividly the memory came to
me-the high airy world, as it was at
that moment, and thf 10y was. walk
ing free in the furros, SHAT the weak
tears filled my eyes, the first had
shed III many years. Then l thought
of sitting in quiet thickets in old fence
corners, the wood behind me rising
still, cool, mysterious, and the fields in
front stretching away in illimitable
pleasantness. thought of the good
smell of cows ut milking. You do not
k,eew If you do not know! I thought
Of the sights and sounds, the heat and
sweat of the hayfields. l thought of
a certain brook knew when boy
that flowed among alders and wild
parsnips, where waded with three
foot rod for trout. l thought Of all
these things as man thinks of his
first love. oh, craved the soil! l
hungered and thirsted for the earth.

Entertainment at Riverdale.

On Friday, December 2lst, Christ
mas entertainment was given at the
Riverdale school house. The program
included several interesting recitations
and dialogues by the scholars, after
which was very laughable play, in
which several of the young people of
the neighborhood took part. Music
was furnished by the neighborhood or
chestra and a few violin solos added
greatly to the program. The interior
of the school house was nicely decor
ated; Christmas tree, laden with
candy and presents stood in one corner.
A platform and curtain were put up
for the occasion. There were many
visitors, not only from the neighbor-
hood but from Oakes and Ludden as
well. Everyone had a good time and
the entertainment was pronounced a
success, =.

French Sentiment.

A French parricide who slew his fa-
ther and mother and was asked upon
condemnation what he had to say and
why sentence should not be pronounced
upon him, entreated the court to have
mercy upon a poor orphan. This tale
is green with the moss of ages and
may not be true, but something like it
is true Of woman named Marie Gel
vet, sentenced by Paris tribunal to
twenty years imprisonment at hard
labor for the murder of her sister.
While in court she constantly wore u
long Grape veil. why do you wear
this veil!" asked one of the officials, to
which she replied that she was in
mourning for her sister, showing an
affectionate sensibility, the earlier ex-
hibition of which, however, would have
been more becoming to her even than
the garment.

fully seventy-dve interested parties
present, as well as thirty-two elevators

and that is state and federal control.
They will ask the legislature to pass
a reciprocal demurrage law, and will
also ask the legislature to memorabilia
congress for federal control. A per-

After Death.

1t is very singular how the fact of a
mans death often seems to give peo-
pie a truer idea of his character,
whether for good or for evil, than
they have ever possessed while he was
living and acting among men. Death
Is SO genuine fact that 1t excludes
falsehood or betrays its emptiness. 1t
Is touchstone that proves the gold
and dishonors the baser metal. Could
the departed, whoever he may be, re-
turn in week after his decease he
would almost invariably find himself
at higher or lower point than he
had formerly occupied in the scale of
public appreciation.

THE SHAMROCK.
AZ One Time 1t Was Used For Food
5 In Ireland.

At One Time 1t Was Used For Food
j In Ireland.
That the shamrock was used as diet
before it was adopted at the national
emblem has been conclusively demon
strated, though in proving the fact one
writer borrows from another. Very
few drew their information from per.
sonal observation. Spenser undoubted-
ly did, and he is perhaps responsible
for the familiarization Of this fact to
his contemporaries. l quote the pas
sage from "The View of the Present
State of Ireland:'
"Out of every corner of the woods
and glinnes they came creeping foorthe
upon theyr handles, for theyr legges
cous1 not beare them. They looked
like anatomyes Of death; they spake
like csghostes crying out Of theyr graves;
they did eat of the dead cartons, and
yf they founde plotte Of water crosses
or shamrokes there they flocked as to a
feast for the time"
This dietary use was known to the
Elizabethan dramatists.
I will give tee leave to cram my
mouth phit shamrokes and butter, and
water creeshes instead Of pearsh and
peepsh.-Ben Jonson's "Irish Masque."

Fuel Famine situation improved.

Fuel Famine Situation Improved.
The car shortage inquiry by Messrs.
Harlan and Lane Of the interstate COM
merce commission at Minneapolis last
week resulted in great improvement in
the coal famine in the state. Tele-
grams to the commissioners from var
ious cities and towns in North Dakota
informed them of the seriousness of
the situation and when these kilograms
were shown to railroad officials at the
hearing and they were asked what
they intended to do, they all replied
that they would rush coal to the suf-
fering cities, and they have done 80
and still are doing so. Many railroad
officials testified at the hearing and
naturally sought to show that the rail-
roads were not to blame for the fuel
famine and car shortage, the burden
of their story being that coal dealers
had not ordered enough coal, being
content with stock that would last
only from day to day. This, however,
did not appear to be the case in all
instances, for it was shown that coal
had been on the road for over month
in travelling less than 300 miles. It
surprised the commissioners to find
how slow some of the coal Travelled, a
mile an hour being the average made
In several cases. President Hill of
the Great Northern said the great de-
velopment of the Northwest and in.
creased traffic were to blame for the
fuel famine and car shortage.
