HEALTH BAROMETER.
Some Simple Methods of De-
termining the Presence of
Serious Diseases in the Body.
Key TO health.

Key to health.
The urine is an unerring indicator Of
bodily health.
Exhaustive scientific study has devel-
oped the fact that through the urine it is
possible to largely determine the disease
with which the victim is afflicted.
For instance, scanty passages of dark
colored or cloudy urine containing red
dish or white sediment is an infallible
sign of kidney trouble and should be
given quick attention. If neglected the
absorbent vessels which gather up the
liquids of the body to be expelled as
urine give way and allow the water to
back up and spread itself through the
inner cavities of the body, ultimately
poisoning the whole system and produc-
ing condition known as dropsy.
Frequent passages of large Quantities
vf urine, colorless and of sweet odar in
Gicates diabetes.
The presence of albumen in the urine
is an evidence of Bright's Disease.
Bile in the urine is warning that the
liver is torpid.
These several irregularities of the urine
prove conclusively the existence of a
disease of serious import to the victim.
The safe course is to begin treatment a.
soon as its existence is known.
Prickly Ash Bitters exercises highly
beneficial influence in the kidneys and
urinary organs. 1t quickly arrests the
progress of the disease, strengthens the
kidneys and organs which have to do
with the urine so that they can fully per
form their duties of keeping the body
free from uric acid poison and other i'm
purities.
Prickly Ash Bitters has earned arepu-
tation that puts it beyond comparison
with other remedies designed for kidney
and bladder ailments. Its record rests
upon the marvellous success that has fol-
lowed its use wherever it has been tried.
Many physicians praise its efficacy in
diseases of the kidneys and urinary or.
gans, although they are opposed to pro-
prietary remedies as class.
CT can recommend Prickiy Ash Bitters to be
the best kidney medicine in the world" says d.
r. Robinson, jerks, Mo. Thousands OF others

YOUNG LADY is
BADLY BURNED
Miss Florence johnson Has Dress
Caught in Fire She
Was Attending
Was Burning Some Refuse Paper Back ol
Building When Accident Occurred
No. z Same Afternoon.

While attending a fire at the rear Of
her fathers upstairs studio last Thur
day afternoon, Miss Florence johnson,
aged about 10, had her dress caught in
the flames and was burned quite badly
before the flames were sxtinguished.
The studio had been receiving a new
dress Of wall paper and Florence had
swept up the trimmings and was having
q fire in the back yard. Her cotton
dress was blown into the fire and she
was enveloped in flames in twinkling.
She did not dare to run upstairs for
fear of setting the building on fire,
and before her parents answered to her
cries for help, she was badly burned
about the breast, face and hands.
While the burns are not deep, they are
very painful and the young lady has
suffered much, requiring the constant
care Of the parents or physician ever
since.
At the same time there was another
fire in the northeast part of town, that
had been started by a couple Of children
playing with matches. The blaze was
started on the prairie near the N. p.
track, and had come close to the straw
pile and barn OF the Rancour residence
before it was under control. The city
should be protected by firebreaks.

Waste Paper Nuisance.

It is shame the way waste paper is
allowed to blow about the city. Some
people seem to think that the only way
to get rid of paper is to throw it to the
winds and it will be carried away
somewhere. It appears to be all right
if it is carried away from their own
dooryards. They never seem to realize
that it catches on their neighbor's
buildings and fences and is blown back
by the first wind from the other direc-
tion. The only proper way to dispose
Of such material is to burn it up. 1t is
hard for those who do try to keep their
places decent to be continually an
noyed BY papers and rags blown to and
fro across the city. It looks bad to
visitors and certainly should be an
eyesore to those who live in the city.

Have a Smoke?

Fairmount Sentinel: The pure food
department recently had samples of
tobacco examined and analyzed and the
fact was revealed that the trust is pre-
pairing all kinds Of stuff for the inno-
cents to put in their pipe and smoke.
The kinds known as English Curve Cut
and Lucky Strike contained forty per
cent of tobacco and the balance was
common brown paper cut fine. Bull
Durham contained not a particle Of
tobacco but was made Of finely chopped
straw paper soaked in the juice Of
tobacco stems and refuse. Dukes
Mixture was only ten per cent tobacco
and the rest brown paper. When a
man thinks he is suffering from nico-
tine poisoning it may be nothing but
the taste of straw smoke creosote in
his mouth.

Easter and Better Way.

LaMoure Chronicle: The Jamestown
Alert calls attention to the fact that
there is too much work in the Fifth
judicial district for one judge to care
for property. But this would not be
the fact if other counties ia the district
would follow LaMoure county's ex-
ample, and adopt increased jurisdiction
of the county court. Since LaMoure
county took this step some two or. three
years ago the district judge has GER
tainly not been burdened with work in
this county. Generally speaking,
the county court has superseded the
district court in all matters coming
within its jurisdiction and that covers
at least seven-tenths of all causes of
whatever nature brought to trial. At
the same time the expense to the
county is much less than it would be
otherwise. All this is especially true
in the light of the enlarged powers con-
ferred by the last Legislation upon
county courts having enlarged jurisdic-
ton. Within certain defined limits the
general provisions Of law relating to
district courts are made to relate to
county courts. Provision is made for
regular jury terms in the months Of
February, June and December. Pro-
vision is also made for the summary ad-
ministration and disposition Of estates
of small vaine; and in general it is
clearly the purpose of the law makers
that county courts, under increased
jurisdiction, shall do a large share Of
the work that heretofore has been
done in district court. It proves to be
much the easier and better way.

Lost First Game.

|: A picked up nine went to Aberdeen
Saturday to play ball with team of
the state normal school. Of the game
the Aberdeen American says:
The game was easily won by the
normal aggregation by the score of IA
to 1, and was, however, not as slow as
the score would seem to indicate. it
being full of brilliant plays on the part
of both teams, although the home team
played little the best ball from start
to finish.
At the start it looked as though the
normal had its work cut out for it, and
fcr three innings both teams played
errorless ball, neither side scoring. In
the fifth the Aberdeen boys began to
wake up and play ball. Oakes was re-
tired in one, two, three order, and the
fun began with Clayton at the bat.
He was walked and stole two bases,
while Clark famed. Cason came up
next and landed a pretty little one
bagger which let Clayton in. After
that every man up walloped the ball for
a hit, Lamont, driving out a three
bagger, the longest hit of the game.
After eight scores had been let in
Aberdeen retired.
In the sixth Aberdeen was shut out,
but came back in the seventh with two
runs on errors by the Oakes boys. The
eighth brought in three more on long
drives by McLenna, Sieh and Smith
and in the ninth F. Bush of Oakes came
in with their only score, on an error by
Clayton.
Clayton did the star playing for the
normal, but Smith deserves great credit
for the masterful way in which he held
down second base in spite of the fact
that he has never played that position
before. The battling of Lamont, Nc
Kenna and Smith was one of the
features Of thegame. For Oakes Frank
Bush was easily the star and his playing
would do credit to semi-professional
team. Oakes had with them another
pitcher Casey, who was to take O'Neill' IS
place after the fifth, but after seeing
the way the game was going, he re-
fused to go in.

Keep q Good Thing.

During the past month there has been
considerable agitation in immigration
circles. Alberta has been offering
and cream to settlers;
Texas has suddenly discovered that she
is an agricultural state where the
farmer has but to pitch his tent to be-
come wealthy, while Idaho, Washington
and a few other western states want
us to believe that farm out there is
but thirty minutes walk from the
Pearly Gates.
1t is highly commendable in these
sections to hustle for settlers, and they
show good Judgment in endeavoring
to secure the North Dakota product,
for the average North Dakotan makes
good" wherever you place him. But
right now is the proper moment for the
aforesaid North Dakotan to sit up. and
take notice make at least a mental
note of the existing conditions in his
own state. Never in our history has
our state become as well known, and
her resources as fully appreciated in
the east as now. The present marks
the passing Of the homestead and the
entrance Of the warranty deed-a
period Of fixed and staple value for
every foot of our land. The advent Of
numerous new railroad branches, the
building Of many busy young towns
and villages, the opening Of additional
farms, and the development of coal
mines, brick and pottery kilns, quarriea
Of fine building stone. and countless
business Industries yet in their infancy,
indisputably point to the fact that il
there's state in the Union right now
upon the threshold Of national prom.
inence and confidence, it is North
Dakota.
If muddy roads and spring feve,
tempt you TO try some other locality,
do not do it. There are better things
in store for you; your farm has no,
yet reached it's full value. ''Stay 70,

was held at the opera house last night
with DR.. s. A. Danford, presiding elder
of the Fargo district, personally in
charge. The attendance was not as
large as it should have been, but those
that were there received spiritual
blessing. Many ministers of the dis
trict were present, and after a half
hours song service led by Rev. ]. s.
DeLong several Of the ministers
offered up petitions to God to send
blessings upon the meetings.
DR.. H. G. Morrison, the eloquent
evangelist Of Louisville, KY, preached
an excellent sermon on the subject Of
Prayer" The doctor weaves into his
discourse many personal anecdotes, and
at times gets rather dramatic as he
appeals to his hearers. His power Of
mimicry is splendid, and whether he
pictures stories from the Bible or Incl
dents from his own career, they are
alike interesting and cannot but. fail to
impress.
Three meetings are being held each
day this week lone at 8 O'Clock a. m.
