The Northwestern Railway
Will Now Use Water
From Below

1t is stated that the rail-
road company is about to
sink an artesian we'll here
for their use in supplying
engines with water. The
opening of the Black Hills
line has increased traffic
east of Pierre wonderfully.
Sunday trains now run re-
gularly besides numerous
extras. The engineers have
in the past avoided artesian
water in filling their engines
but nov the increasing bus
mess makes it necessary to
use it and artesian wells are
being put down at the diff
erent stations. 1t is UNDER
stood that the water will be
filtered in some way before
putting it in the engines.

IN TIME OF SICKNESS.
Simple Remedies That Have Been
Proved of Value.

To induce perspiration, wiring a
blanket out in hot water, and
wrap it round the patient. Then
pack in three or four dry blankets and
allow him TO repose for 80 minutes
The coverings may then be taken off,
and the surface of the body rubbed
with warm towels.
1t is, as a rule, best to apply com
presses at night time. as it is difficult
to keep them in position while moving
about. After removing them in the
morning, sponge the affected parts
with cold water, so as to restore the
tone of the skin.
Take jug of hot water containing
the drug which has TO be inhaled.
Hold the face over the jug, and ar
range a towel so that it covers the
face below the eyes, and surrounds
the top of the jug. The medicine is
thus breathed through the mouth and
nose

Veal Brawn.

Cut up two pounds of breast of veal
into medium size pieces, put them in
an enameled saucepan with enough
water to cover them, also one small
onion and four peppercorns; simmer
gently for two hours; remove the
meat from the bones, put the bones
back into the liquor, and simmer for
another hour; cut up the meat into
small pieces with one-half pound of
cooked ham; strain the liquor into
another saucepan, add the meat, sea-
soning of salt and pepper, and a
sprinkling of nutmeg and mixed spice;
set it by the side of the stove to get

but do not let it boil. Pour into an
earthen mould, and set aside to cool.

OF Interest to Women,

Every woman naturally should be
healthy and strong, but great many
women, unfortunately, are not, owing
to the unnatural condition of the lives
we lead. Headache, backache and a
general tired condition are prevalent
amongst the women of to-day, and to
relieve these conditions women rush
to the druggists for bottle of some
preparation supposed to be particular
ly for them, and ontaining-nobody
knows what. If they would just get
a box of Brandreth's Pills, and take
them regularly every night for time,
all their trouble would disappear, as
these pills regulate the organs of the
feminine system. The same dose al
ways has the same effect, no matter
how long they are used.
Brandreth's pills have been in use
for over century, and are for sale
everywhere, plain or sugar-coated.

Used Him as Eraser.

The late DR.. Henry Martyr Field
some years ago related at a Williams
alumni dinner a rather amusing Incl
dent of his freshman days at college.
Being only IL years old when he
entered he had not reached the point
where the natural friction between the
big boy and the small boy ceases and
he was at particular feud with one of
his fellows, a stalwart country youth
fresh from the farm. One day young
Field went early to the classroom and
put upon the big blackboard very
exasperating caricature of his en-.
emy with his name beneath. When
the aggrieved party saw what had
been done he said not a word. but
catching up his youthful tormentor he
used him as an eraser and after rub.

RemovIna PAPER from Pans.

To remove the paper which has
lined the cake pan after it is baked is
a work requiring skill. Turn the cake
from the tin on a sieve, and when it
has partly cooled turn the cake bot.
tom upward and brush the paper with
chilled water, until it is thoroughly
damp. when the paper will easily peel
off. When paper is not used and you
wish to prevent the cake from stick
ing to the pan, grease it well and
dredge it with -four that has been
thoroughly dried. Be sure to shake
out all extra -four before putting the
cake mixture in.

RICH PALE VEAL GRAVY.
Recipe for consomme That Is Said to
Be Delicious.

When the best joints of fowls or
partridges have been taken for fri
casses or outlets the remainder may be
stewed with a pound or two of veal
cut, consomme which then takes the
name chicken or of game gravy.
For a large dinner it is always well
TO have stock that can easily be con-
verted into white or other sauces. To
make this arrange a slice or two Of
lean ham in a stewpot with three
pounds of the neck of veal (or the
thick part of a knuckle of veal VIII
answer as WELD, pour over three pints
of strong veal broth, put in salt.
After it has commenced to boil,
skim carefully, add one small onion,
one soup bunch, little celery, one
carrot, one blade of mace, and half
a saltspoonful of peppercorns, stew
gently for four hours, then If the
heart is in pieces strain off the gravy.
Set away to become cold, after
which remove the fat. A few mush-
rooms buttons will greatly improve
the flavor.

Onions and Pneumonia,

The following remedy is said to be
a cure for pneumonia. Take six to
ten onions, according to size, and chop
fine, put in large spider over hot
fire, then add the same quantity of
ryemeal and vinegar, enough to form
a thick paste. In the meanwhile stir
it thoroughly, letting it simmer five or
ten minutes. Then put in a cotton bag
large enough to cover the lungs, ant
apply to chest as hot as patient can
bear. In about ten minutes apply
another, and thus continue by re-heat-
ing the poultices, and in a few hours
the patient will he out of danger. This
simple remedy has seldom failed to
cure this too-often fatal malady. Usu-
ally three or four applications will be
suffi cient, but continue until the per-
spiration starts freely from the chest.

"Mr. Clay was of a personality once

agining it exclusive property.
Throughout Mr.. Clay's performance
my eyes scarcely left his countenance,
which, as he proceeded, sank from
sight until, by the familiar optical
illusions, nothing of it remained but
the mouth, and that kept enlargins
and widening until it seemed an elas-
tic link holding the ears together.
Indeed, at this late writing, my one
distinct recollection of the man and
his speech is the mouth and it's capac-
ity for infinite distension Auto biog-

CAAADA'S GOOD TIMES.
The immigration During 1906 Was
216,ooo.

While 1t is we'll to heed every
word of caution from the leaders in
commerce and finance and to avoid
all speculative ventures that lack a
solid business foundation, it is clearly
evident that there is no conspicuous
weak spot in Canada's present era of
prosperity. The Toronto Globe says:
"The Dominion has Ia a commercial
sense plenty of money and our lead
ing financial institutions are in a po-
sition to lend freely in the United
States. The chief productive enter
prises of Canada are not buoyed up
by an era of dangerous speculation,
but are following substantial busi-
ness methods and finding safe and
continuous markets for their goods.
We are not bolstering up any indus
tries by extensive export bonuses
that must impoverish the people as
whole, and ultimately lead to col
lapse through the failure of the arti-
ficial aid. There is no extreme pro-
lection in Canada such as would ere
ate great fortunes for a few at the
expense of the general public and
lead to disruption and catastrophe
The prosperity of Canada has no ar
tificial foundation being based on a
healthy and substantial expansion OF
trade and industry, with a proportion
ate extension of productive settlement
to new areas.
1t is true that we are borrowing
extensively for railway construction,
but every line will bring new terri
tory within the limits of profitable
occupation, and will create prosper
GUS settlements to bear the burdens
and repay the outlay. We are not
exhausting mineral resources, for it
Is quite reasonable to assume that,
although mineral wealth is never
permanent, ours will during the
measurable future develop a far
greater productive capacity than at
present. Our timber wealth can be
ma6e continuous by a judicious pol
icy. And agriculture, the real foun-
dation of our prosperity, is expanding
with every new expenditure on rail-
way construction. We are not in
the flush of a railway mania that
could bring it's punishment through
the useless duplication of lines. The
gigantic railway enterprises that
now stimulate every line of business
in Canada will create a new Domin-
ion, and thus render easy the heavy
burdens of debt now freely assumed.
Canada's era of prosperity has been
unprecedented but there is no sign
of weakness and no cause for lack
of confidence. While our growth is
normal and healthy, we need have no
alarm at it's rapidity." This article
might have gone on to relate the
great growth that is taking place in
Central Canada, where thousands OF
Americans have made their homes
during the past few years. The past
calendar year has given to Canada by
importation an addition of 216,000 to
fits population. OF this the United
States contributed 63,7S1. The agents
of the Canadian government, whose
advertisement appears elsewhere, say
that this number will be largely in
creased during 1907.

MRS. ELvA CARRIER EDWARDS

There are three critical stages in
woman's life which leave their mark
in her career. The first of these stages
is womanhood, or the change from q
care free girl to budding womanhood,
The second is motherhood, and the
third is Change of Life.
Perils surround each of these stages,
and most of the misery that comes
to women through i'll health dates
from one or another of these inn
portant crises.
Women should remember that Lydia
z. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
made from native roots and herbs has
carried thousands of young girls over
the critical period of puberty, has
prepared mothers for childbirth, and
in later years carried them safely
through the change of life more sue
cessfully than any other remedy in
the world. Thousands of testimonials
from grateful persons, two of which
are here published, substantiate this
fact beyond contradiction.
