Dull Pupil Amazed Teacher by Civ

A Baltimore school-teacher was
telling one day Of how often the in.

lshed by the quickness OF wit exhibited
b. the pupil who is otherwise def
clent.
One day, says this teacher. she had
encountered such a degree of igno-
rance and mental obtuseness on the
part OF one Of her boys that she be-
came disheartened. So II was with
considerable sarcasm that she said to
the youngster:
Il wonder II you could tell me
whether George Washington was a
soldier or a sailor"
The kid grinned 'He was SOL

How DO ysu know?' asked the
weary teacher.

TO THE MERCHANTS AND THE
FAIR

The idea is frequently advanced
that the merchants alone viii be
identified by a fair and they
shoald bear the bulk of the ex-
pense. The idea IS based on the
erroneous impression that fair is
int nded to draw big business for
merchants tor few days. This
is totally wrong conception oi the
nature and objects Of fair.
If a fair means anything, it
means benefit for the entire city.
2 can be mnde a trade getter for
the few days that it lasts, but pri-
marily the benefits accruing from
it are intended TO be permanent in
promoting the general advance
ment Of the agricultural interests
of the country and thus laying the
basis for larger prosperity of the
town. Whatever benefits the
country benefits the town, and
when we say the town" that
means everybody in it. The man
who owns the buildings which the
merchants occupy, the owner of
all classes Of real estate, the pro-
fessional men and all will share in
the enhancement Of the general
interests Of the city.
Our merchants are paying rents
which have been soaring skyhigh.
Property owners secure their full
share OF the profits of the mer.
chants and, on some cases, more. |
Even If it be granted that the mer-
chant is more directly benefited
than anybody else. why should
not his landlord share the expense
of any movement that has for its
object larger trade for the town.
The landlord cannot receive hisrent

relatives.
Nels Lausten, saloon keeper in
Omaha, was murdered last Satur-
day night by four boy bandits in
a hold up. The boys had held up
several places Friday night and
becoming bolder with success they
continued Saturday night. Jay
O'Hearn, Raymond Nelson, Leo
Angus and Joe Warren are the
bandits. the last named being a
former Nashville boy. Warren is
said to be the first child born in Val
entine, which occurred in 1883. His
father, Fitz Warren, was a county
judge here in the early days and
was running saloon with Billy
Carter at the time he was fraud
ulently counted in as judge and
used to hold court In the back part
of their ca IOOn
Some early settlers recall the times
when old Fitz Warren sat in
poker game while judge and trans
acted business officially between
deals. Joe was said to be very
pretty boy and grew. up worth
less fellow. The four bandits are
held for murder. They we're ar
rested the day following the shoot
ing. A mob gathered at the cor
oner's inquest and for safe-keep-
ing the boys were taken to Lin
coin. They will be given a speedy
trial no doubt.
The new passenger depot of the
c. e N. ". at this place was com-
pleted last week and Sunday was
opened for business and the gen
eral inspection Of the public. It
was quite cold but number of
persons were present at different
hours of the day to see the won
dereeul transformation and to show
their appreciation of what the G..
& n. ". has done for Valentine
Mr.. Northrop, our
genial and always obliging agent,
took us through the building and
to the basement under the Office
where the heating plant is INSTALL
ed. The depot is built on the
north side Of the track about $50
feet east of the old depot, and is
about 26X120 feet in size. There
is brick walk laid the length of
the block from east to west, or
from Hall street to Main street in
front Of the depot, and thence
north to the street crossing, also
a brick walk laid around the depot.
The mems waiting room is on the
east and is 28x36 feet. Next to it
is the Office which is large and has
a room for train men to step into
at the southeast corner to receive
their orders and a room at the
north for express transactions and
also serves as q passage or hallway
between the mems and the wom-
ems waiting rooms, the latter be-
ing on the west side of the Office
and is about 28x2O. The express
room joins on the west of this and
the baggage room is on the west
end, both large enough to accom-
modate the business of that nature.
The whole is heated by steam and
lighted with electricity. 1t is a
very beautiful depot for Valentine
and our citizens are proud of it.

PAIN IN The JOINTS
Rheumatic Tortures Cease When Or
Williams Pink Pills Make
New Blood.

The first sign of rheumatism is fre.
quently a pain and swelling in one Of
the joints. If not combated in the
blood, which is the seat of the disease,
the poison spreads, affecting other joints
and tissues. Sometimes rheumatism at.
tacks the heart and is quickly fatal.
The one remedy that has cured
rheumatism so that it stays cured is DR..
Williams Pink Pills. These pills expel
the poison from the blood and restore
the system, SO that the poisonous matter
is passed off as nature intended.
Mrs. 1. T. Pitcher, of No. 1870 Mon
mouth street, Newark. N. j., suffered
for about three years from rheumatism
before she found this cure. She says:
cit began with a queer feeling in my
fingers. In little time it seemed as
though the finger joints had Jumps on
them and could not get my gloves OH.
"Then it grew worse and spread to
my knees. l could not stand up and
could not sleep nights. My suffering
was more than I can describe. took a
great deal of medicine, but nothing even
gave me relief until tried DIR. Williams
Pink Pills.
81 read an account of cure in case
that was exactly like mine and my hus.
band got me some of the pills. took
them for three weeks before really felt
better but they finally cured me-.
Mr.. Pitcher, who is a veteran and a
member of E d. Morgan Post, No. 307
of New York, substantiates his wife's
statement and says that she now walks
without difficulty, whereas a year ago
he was compelled to push her about in a
wheeled chair. Both Mr.. and Mrs.
Pitcher are enthusiastic III their praise
of DR.. Williams Pink Pills.

DR.. Williams Medicine Company, Sche-
nectady, NY.
