at work near by.
When both the men returned to the base
ment of the apartment the door of the bath
room was closed. and they smelled gas

and his brother found the wife again ap-
parently dead. Opening all of the windows
the two men carried her into a bed room
and placed her upon a bed. The brother
in-law went after physician, but upon his
return Mrs. Marcus had reganed conscious

Her husband said this morning that re-
Gently his wife had been morose because of
the fact that his income had to be devoted
in part to the maintenance of several rea-

window, and after attaching it to the steam
pipe had, after placing her head in. a,

went about her housework, and when her
husband told the story of her attempts to

Not From What You Eat, But
From What You Digest.

Most people eat most foods without discrimlna-
font matters little what Few stop TO think
what that food does for them. This is the hrst
turn on the road to dyspepsia. Reckless dlsfe-
gard OF the proper choice OF foods, rapid eating
and improper mssticaton. are the unquestioned
causes OF all stomach disorders from the siish'
ache to the malignant cancer.
There is nothing more revolving than dys-
peptic stomach-a very vat for putrefaction, SEND

and the consequent assimilation of poison. What

ELEVATORS NEEDED
A Steady Increase Of Farmers
Elevators In State. Some Very
Prosperous, 4 Few Not.
Good Management the 1alIsman
for Success In All Cases.
Farmers 6ranaries.

Grain Raissrs Approve Senator
McCumbsr's Inspection Bill.
Terminals Needed.
+. ~sSa
:; The needs of grain shippers from
this state and the increasing business
done by elevators in the state are we'll
known in general way, but few OF
the practical farmers are better post
ed on the great increase of grain busi-
ness and the present grain situation
as far as shipping and storage facili.
ties are concerned, than O. G. Majors
of Hope. He has spent considerable
time the last two years aiding farmers
to organize elevator companies in this
state and showing the great advan-
tages that many Of the conservatively
managed farmers houses have over
any other company. Mr.. Majors has
been at the Capital house for two days,
detained by the storm from making a
trip to the Denhoff branch, where he
is asked to aid the farmers at two
shipping points to organize elevators
for the reception Of grain and for the
general business Of shipping and
handling grain. Manager Zamzon, of
the Farmers elevator at Cummings,
was also here waiting for the snow
plow to clear the track from the sur
plus of the beautiful snow.
A Farmers Elevator Company has
just been organized at Sanborn, one
will be organized at Bowdon, and one
at another station on that branch and
other points on the Northern Pacific
branches.
In this county there are several
farmers elevators, one at Courtenay
doing we'll and the business win near
ly pay for the house this year. The
only disappointment has been the
Spiritwood elevator which thru poor,
management got q black eye and gave
the opponents Of the companies thru
the state a chance to roast the whole
plan of farmers elevators. The
Spiritwood house has been an excep-
tion, as farmers houses thru the state
have been uniformly prosperous, says
Mr.. Majors. He states there are re-
ported about eighty farmers elevators
in the state, and others are being
organized as rapidly as the farmers of
each vicinity investigate and see the
advantages. In numerous cases the
farmers have paid for the elevators In
two or three years, and last year the
Jesse elevator paid for itself and gave
the stockholders a good dividend
besides. Mr.. Majors says:
ssThere is no difference in the man
ner Of transacting business at q farm
ers elevator than at an old line house.
A farmer gets his cash for the grain
the same as the old line house, but
participates in the profits OF the
storage, and the frequent advances in
grain at terminals. The fact that
daily elevator purchases are protected
by sales at the terminal points is a
guaranty Of safety for the farmers
elevator company the same as every
other elevator company.
ssThe main trouble with organizing
farmers houses and the local manage
ment of the business is the jealousy of
farmers towards some of the neigh
%, occasionally others who
