SOUTH DAkOTA'S PURE FOOD
LAW.

The following article in the
Com mercial News OF Sioux Falls
by A. X. Fellows, a druggist of
that place, seemed so pertinent
in view Of recent comments by
the press. that We thought It
worthy place in our columns:
The South Dakota Pure Food
and Drug Law has caused q
great deal of comment on &C
count of its peculiarities, and
also the rulings Of thu com mis-
sioner in regard to the enforce
ment of the same.
The druggists OF the state are
confronted with the fact that, il
the law il such a warrant to
these rulings, they would lose
from one-third to one halt OF
their business. All druggists
in the state are in favor ofa rea
sonable Pure Food Law, but the
one passed last winter is very
unreasonable in several re.
spects. In the first place it is
undoubtedly unconstitutional
inasmuch as it attempts to re
Quire the manufacturers Of pre-
pared medicines to afiix q q uali
tive label OF what they are CON.
posed. THIS would be unfair to
the proprietors, as it would com.
pei them to give TO the public
and tLeir competitors thu know
ledge they have acquired in re-
gard to the value OF certain for
mulas for the relief of the di-
seases their several medicines
are recon mendcd for. This
would be taking away from the
originators Of these prescrip.
tions property, represented by
their brains, which cannot be
done legally.
On account Of the above, the
manufacturers Of = great many

SMALL SAYS
GOOD WORD FOR
MANUEL IDEA

In an address delivered yesterday af-
ternoon before the public school teachers
OF the city Of Providence at the meeting
IN the hall OF the English High school.
attention was called by Supt. Small to
one Of the most moemntous questions be-
fore the public schools OF the country In
the lack of power TO assume responsibility
one OF the most. momentous questions be-
the schools. For manual training Mr..
Small had good word. as being strong
factor In the developing OF the much-to-be
desired quality.
Mr.. Small had for his theme THE Per-
sonal Responsibility of the Pupil" and
eaid in parts
Criticism OF the public schools has al
ways been general and will always be
general We cannot escape II, and we
should not try We should listen and
profit by our listening.
"One OF the common criticisms OF to-
day is that the product OF the modern
schools waits for someone to find him his
job instead Of hhding 1t for himself; that
when he enters upon his occupation ee
cannot set himself at work lacks initia-
tive power. is generally helpless and care
less; in fact. that he lacks the power OF
assuming personal responsibility. This
lack of power is charged upon the public
schools,
"The early New England pupil received
his education from three sources, the
school. the church and the home. Tho
little red school house was only one ele-
Tnent in his development and less one
than is generally accorded. The home and
the community life was the larger ele-
ment. The child lived in an atmosphere
OF personal responsibility.
There are three things that / believe
we can teach-personal responsibility OF
time. personal responsibility OF work. per-
sonal responsibility of property. The first
includes punctuality in attendance and re-
sponsibility In the use OF time In study.
zone OF the great values OF manual
training lies in its fixing of responsibility,
giving definite tasks to be definitely per-
formed
"The lack of responsibility on the part
OF parent and pupil is one OF the danger
Gus tendencies of the day. We must put
into their lives the training In its devel-
opment which they now can receive from
no other source"
Relative to the school question II was
announced yesterday that the Harris ave-
nue. and Atwells avenue schools were
opened. These schools have been under
going repairs and were completed last
week. This leaves but two schools unfln-
ished. Hammond street and Peace street
and these will be ready In a week or two.

CIVIC IMPROVEMENT LEAGUE CONVENTION

Owing to the growing interest in
civic improvement throughout the
state, the Valley City improvement
league, encouraged by the city coun-
Gil and the Commercial club of Valley
city, do hereby extend you cordial
invitation to cooperate with us in
holding convention in this city in the
early part of June, 1907.
* At the present time it can be posi-
lively stated that the civic improve
ment work thus represented will be
sufficiently extensive to warrant this
special call to Mayors of cities, coun-
Gil members. officers and members of
civic improvement leagues in other
cities, and, generally, friends of the
Improvement movement, to cooperate
in sending delegates and securing a
large attendance for this civic i'm
provement meeting, the details of
which will be later supplied to the
press and to the parties Interested
A most useful and suggestive pro-
gram will be given. We are prac.
tically certain of the presence of a
number of civic improvement special.

Hon. G. M. Loring, of Minneapolis.

haps Caroline Bartlett Crane of Kala-

EASY DOOR FASTENERS.
Only One Kind OF Lock the Expert
Burglar Can't Pick.

Only One Kind OF Lock the EXPERT
Burglar Can't Pick.
There's only one lock In the world
that can't open IL you'll give me q
few minutes at 1t, and as for ordinary
door sand drawer locks, I'll open them q
as easily as liz there was no lock there
ANY expert burglar can do the same.
The foregoing statement was made
by an experienced locksmith Of Kan
sas City. III.
Ss Few persons know how insecure
their homes are,'' he continued. Few
persons realize that the average lock
is absolutely worthless for keeping out
an experienced burglar. The ordinary
door lock is good for nothing but re-
minding casual business or social call
ers that they must ring to be admitted.
None Of these ordinary door fasten-
ers,, and that's the best you can call
them, will deter burglar two whole
minutes. IF there's no key in the lock.
he soonfits one to it. If there is key
in the lock. he inserts pair Of pinch
ers and in ten seconds has 1t opened.
Understand me, am speaking of the
experienced burglar The clumsy bur-
glar is the one who gets in trouble.
He'll tumble around with a lock until
somebody hears him. There is only
one unpickable lock made. That's the
six pin lock used by the government.
It will defy any expert. There are six
little steel pins in the lock. which
have to be raised just a, certain dis
lance to open 1t. Some Of the pins are
one-fourth Of an inch long and some
Of them a half inch. If one of the pins
lacks even hairbreadth Of being
raised the proper distance, the lock
will not open. 1t battles all the ex-
perts." ~. 5,
This locksmith is so expert he can
open the majority Of safes, by putting
his ear to the combination and listen
ing to how the tumblers click into
place as he turns it. 4s. Isl
II intended at one time to be a bur-
glar," this locksmith declares. II had
it all planned out-even had a set Of
burglars tools made. Then I decided
that honesty was the best policy, and
I stuck to my trade. Kansas City

THE SHREW. MOUSE.
Some Queer SnperstitiOns About a
Harmless Little Animal.

s.
Harmless Little Animal.
The shrew, or shrew mouse, as it is
commonly called, is found in nearly all
parts of the world. It is distinguished
by an elongated, pointed muzzle, small
eyes, plantigrade, six toed feet and
glands that secrete a musky fluid. AL
together it closely resembles mouse.
but it is really not related to the mouse
family.
When at home it is either under q
pile Of rubbish or in a hole which it
has burrowed in the earth. It is
nocturnal in its habits, but perfectly.
harmless, vet at one time it was much
disliked and prosecuted because 1t was
thought to be a dangerous, nnischievous
animal. Among the Italians the notion
was prevalent that the bite Of a shreW
was extremely poisonous. The French
and the English believed that If a
shrew ran over an animals foot the
animal felt great pain and eventually
became paralyzed; hence il horse, a
COW or goat became little stiff in it's
limbs the foolish people at once declar-
ed it "shrew struck and the poor
shrews had to suffer in consequence.
OF course the "shrew struck" animal
had to have something to cure ii, SO
an ash tree was selected, and deep
hole was bored into its trunk. Then a
shrew was captured, put alive into the
hole, the hole was securely plugged,
and the innocent little animal was left
to die Of starvation.
The ignorant believed that after such
an act the ash tree had power to cure
1'shrew struck animals, and whenever
an animal became inactive or a little
numb in its limbs its owner hurried to
the .sshrew ASH cut switch from II
and switched the "shrew struck" beast.
The smarting caused by the switching
naturally made the helpless animal
move about as much as it possibly
could, and in a short time it was pro.
nounced cured.
