How often do you hear these signi-

More than thirty years ago Lydia

the source of nearly all the suffering

words that can be found in the

South Dakota Men Hope for Warm
Weather Now.

The farmers who come 10 Sturgis
for supplies from 100 miles around
say that the winter has been a very
severe one on stock, and that some OF
the people who had not prepared to
feed their cattle and horses and other
stock will suffer greatly.
Some of the farmerr say they have
been feeding their stock for the last
three months, and have used up all
the hay and are now feeding straw
Some Of the cattle are very weak, and
should the spring SHOWS prove TO be
deep or more cold weather set IN, hun,

should the weather prove mild for the

spring the herd owners will come

years.

rapidly filling up with settlers and al.

fraudulent filings made by clerks and
ONCE girls in St. Paul, representing
to them that all they need to do was
TO sign certain papers. which woul
entitle them to a quarter section OF
land, which could be sold at a good

Horsnell, and sent TO StearnS with

COORDINATION.

CD At present, one of the most im- portant health bureaus. namely, the Public Health and Marine Hospital service, is under the Department of the Treasury. Others, such as the Bureau of Animal Industry, the Bureau of Chemistry (pure food), the Bureau of Entomology, and the Office of Agricul- tural Experiment Stations. are under the Department of Agriculture; an- other, the Bureau of Vital Statistics, is under the Department of Commerce and Labor. That these, (excepting the last) are all more or less out of keep ing with the objects of the department in which they are placed is well known There have been repeated suggestions to transfer the Bureau of Public Health and Marine Hospital service from the Department of the Treasury, with which 1t has no organic relation One of the chief reasons recently given for esta blishing the Pure Food commission was that the Secretary of Agriculture | found this work out of his ordinary | sphere as well as opposed to the inter. ests of many of the food producers, for whom the Department of Agriculture was established. All the health activ- tiles of the government should be def.
 nitely recognized as work in behalf O the consumer, not the producer. Meat | inspection, being a measure of public health and not measure to develop 1 agriculture, does not seem to have it best place under Department of Agri-
 culture.

EXPANSION.

CD Health problems originally local have recently become national This applies not only to pure food and oth- CT problems which have been already partially dealt with by legislation; but to many as yet untouched. For in-
 stance, New York City derives part of it's water supply from Connecticut, and it's milk supply from at least three states, For want of jurisdiction, it is difficult at present to secure either pure water or pure milk. Again, the Ohio river, being out of the jurisdiction of the states through which it flows, now represents, as a distinguished hygienist has recently said, thousand miles of typhoid fever. Just as it is only through the action of the federal government that the people of the United States have become freed from the menace of yellow fever, so we cannot expect to become free from typhoid and other diseases communicated from place to place, without aid from the national government. Not only do waters pass diseases from one state to another, and commerce take pests, but passen- gers carry diseases over the railroads. It is well known that local boards of health have made great strides in fighting tuberculosis by placards in To- cal tramways prohibiting splitting. But on the interstate railroads, indiscrim- mate splitting is still allowed.
 A great field for the health work of
 the federal government is the estab- lishment of uniform standards of health work as models for local boards to copy. Just as the United States
 government has established standards f of weights and measures, and stand ards of pure food. 1t could establish standards of ventilation, sanittion, etc, and exemplify them in the Dis
 trict of Columbia, making Washing ton model city" in health above all else. Model regulations as to the control of milk supply, the establish ment of the standard minimum num-
 Der of bacteria per cubic centimeter

 tenements. school hygiene, etc. The health officer of New York city has re- gently called attention to the fact that
 the pure food law of the United States government has made it far easier for

A NEW FEMININE WEAPON.
Invented by q Michigan Woman as a
 Means of Averaging Real and
Enncied XNrongn.


 A woman of remarkable inventive ability, and, also, by the way, un- usually skilled for one of her sex in throwing things straight, has recently raised her head above the unknown mob of mediocrity, out in the village of New Baltimore, Mich, by the in- vention of q paint bomb. Whether it l is that divorced women are smarter l than other women, or only seem so, it | is Q fact that nine women out of ten who do the sort of clever things that get their names in the newspapers are grass reliets of some presumably un- appreciative man. At any rate, Mrs. l Lyndon Perkins Stanley, inventor of the paint bomb is divorcee. The news of her great discovery became public property substantially as fol- 1 lows:
 On Tuesday last his honor F. E. An drews, president of the hamlet of New Baltimore, was proceeding placidly down the main street quite unsus-
 picious of the impending storm, when 1 the figure of the aforesaid Mrs. L. P. s. loomed up in his path.
 T demand an immediate and hum
 ble apology" she said.
 Apology! Apology for what?'
 weakly answered the conscience
 stricken man.
 No matter for what" replied the
 rate Mrs, L. P. S., you apologize or I'll-"
 At this point the village president
 beat an ignominious retreat into a
 nearby store. If he had had sense
 enough to stay there Mrs. L. P. s.
 would still be unknown to fame She
 pretended to go away but as will sub
 sequently appear, didn't. His honor,
 however, after waiting some time and
 making a careful reconnaissance of
 the street, came to the conclusion that the coast was clear and sallied forth. , He had proceeded but few paces down the walk, just far enough 1T
 fact, so retreat to the store was cut off, when out stepped the enemy, her 7 arm full of curious looking little pa recovered balls which, without fur ther barley, she began throwing ac- l curately and viciously at her victim. , As each one came in contact with MT, Andrews person, it was trans formed into large and brilliant daut of paint-red, yellow, blue, greer black, white, brown-all the colors ol ; the spectrum were there and seyera / others, As his honor pelted dowr the street, the bomb-thrower galloped 5 along, behind and continued the fusil. lade By the time the city jail wa! reached, where the victim finally - sought sanctuary, he looked like { ' cross between zebra and leopard 5 seen through stained glass window. s He flew inside the heavy doors were

REASONS FOR INCREASING NATION
 AL HEALTH REGULATIONS.

III. Those acquainted with the tm- portance of public health measures realize that only beginning has as yet been made iii the activities of the national government The inadequacy of the old machinery has already made itslf apparent in relation to the pure food law, and led to the establishment of Pure Food commission
 The reasons for expanding national activity may be reduced to three:
 CD In order better to coordinate the existing work scattered among various bureaus in different departments.
 @ In order to provide for the nat ural expansion of the work of these bureaus and the creation of new bu- reaus.
 (3) In order to emphasize the fact that national health Is the greatest na- tional asset, and one which at present is not sufficiently exploited.
