TRUE TO HIS PROMISE.
BY Their Own Testimony, Doctor Had
Rejuvenated Patients.

A German doctor who claimed to
have discovered the secret of restor-
ing youth, advertised in London that
he could in two days rejuvenate the
most decrepit hag. This brought q
crowd of ancient danes to his house.
At the first interview he invited each
patient to write her surname, Chris
tian name and age on a piece of paper
The ages whereto they pleaded guilty
varied, but all ruled high. The doctor
undertook to give each patient the
promised elixir next day. On the ap-
pointed day the doctor regretted that
he unfortunately had mislaid the pa
per containing his youth-seekers'
ages, and he, therefore, requested
each one to write it down and call
again. In writing down her age the
second time each woman took many
years off the age she previously had
admitted. The doctor, pretending to
have found the first papers, called
them to witness, comparing the lists,
that he had kept his word, inasmuch
as in 48 hours they had all become
many years younger.

Not Equal to Luxuries.

A dapper young man took a seat ON
a bench in Madison Square Park, says
the New York Press. Stunning him.
self at the other end of the bench was
as fine specimen of the genus hobo
as ever disfigured landscape, After
sestiaa himself the dapper young man
drew, a handsome silver case from his
pocket and extracted therefrom Gig
arctic. With the cigarette between
his teeth, he drew out silver match
box, to find it empty. Swapping down
the lid, he turned to the tramp, hesi-
tated, then said: II beg pawdon, my
friend, but do you happen to have a
match?" Hands plunged into his trou.
sers' pockets and legs sprawled out
before him, the tramp surveyed his
neighbor with an air of deep melan-
choly. Say" he muttered hoarsely,
"who do you think I AM. Pierport
Morgan?"

How He Got a Drink.

An Indiana travelling man told a
story the other day of an incident on
the road. He was in the smoking car
of an express train reading his paper
when man rushed in from the car
behind the smoker, evidently in great
agitation and said: HAS anybody in
this car any whisky? A woman in
the car behind has fainted!" Instant
ly dozens of TASKS were produced.
The man who had asked for it picked
out the largest one, drew the cork
and put the bottle to his lips. With
long, satisfied sigh he handed the
flask back, and remarked: THAT did
me lot of good, and needed it, for
it always makes me feel queer to see
woman faint away!"

WARREN GIVES
ARGYLE SHUT-OUT.

The scheduled game for Tuesday
With Argyle was played on Monday
afternoon SO as to allow the members
OF the teams and also the fans to
take in the circus at Crookston on
Tuesday.
The Warren team played snappy
game and with the exception of the
third inning the game was fast
one. The final score was 5 to 0.
ICY" Dahlgren was in the box for
the locals and kept the visitors
guessing at his twisters. He got
eleven strike-outs and only four
safe hits were made off him.
Warren scored in the first when
Holstein hit hot one to LeZie which
went through him and hit umpire
Mellby, stole second and crossed the
plate on hit made by Geelan. In
the third the Argyle team went up,
however, and Holstein. Geelan and
Carl made the rounds ON a bunch of
errors. In the sixth Belcourt added
another run to the string.
Argyle's only chance of scoring
was in the second inning. Hendrick-
son found a single, Teidt hit fly to
Belcourt which he dropped. Healy
hit to Hallett in center field but ne
made an accurate throw to home
catching Hendrickson.
After the fourth Argyle never saw
first, going, one-two-three, side out.
Belcourt missed one in the field
but made up for it with the stick,
getting three safe hits.
Hallett put one out to right field
that looked good for home run but
Tledt went up in the air and pulled
it down.

Happiness.

Happiness in this world, when it
comes, comes incidentally. Make it
the object of pursuit, and it, leads us
a wild goose chase, and is never at
tanned. Follow some other object, and
very possibly we may find that we
have caught happiness without dream
ing of it, but likely enough it is gone
the moment We say to- ourselves,
Here it ISL like the chest of gold
that treasure-seekers find. There
is something more awful in happiness
than in sorrow-the latter being earth
ly and finite, the former composed of
the substance and texture of eternity
so that spirits still embodied may we'll
tremble at it.-Nathaniel Hawthorne.

TILE DRAINAGE.

Postmaster Elias Steenerson, of
CrookstOn. who is one of the early
settlers in the valley and one of the
originators of the. drainage move
ment, has now taken up the question
Of tile drainage, and believes we
should not cease the drainage agita-
tion until every quarter section is
provided with tile drainage. In
recent issue Of the Crookston Times.
he makes this suggestion:
'Have the legislature enact a law
to encourage and assist in providing
funds for the drainage. Make it
possible for counties that desire to
lay out system of tile drainage SO
that any farmer that wishes to can
get his farm laid out in a tile drain
age district and place bonds on same
in a similar fashion as now is done
in county drainage. This would
help the farmer to get money to
tile his farm with a low late of in
terest and they would feel they
could afford to tile their land. II
interest on such bonds is placed az
4 per cent the outlay to pay the in
terest annually for tiling 100 acres
would be at the rate Of $40 an acre
cost of tiling. 40c an acre or s64
quarter section. per year, and under
this condition it is fair to suppose
that all of the Red River Valley
would be tiled in short time.
Think of what revolution this
would bring about if tiling is what
it is cracked up to be. Outside OF
the benefits direct to the farm, it
would be a grand thing in a COM
mercial way. We would have num-
erouS tile factories which would
furnish work to thousands. 1t
would increase traffic in freight to
an enormous extent. IL would give
employment to large numbers Of
]aborers to lay the tile and to
engineers to make the surveys and so
on down the line and the whole
valley would be busy as a beehive
and would retain it's reputation as
the breadbasket of the world. l
hope thai this matter will be taken
up bv our enterprising citizens and
not laid down until the object has
been accomplished. Let US have a
/ Of
engineers as to the practicability of
the proposition from their point of
view. Let US hear from our solons.
1t is to be hoped they are not scared
by the sometimes dreaded spectre of
paternal tendency. Let US hear
from those learned in the law as to
it's constitutionalitv Let US hear
from the business men if it looks like
business proposition. Let US hear
from farmers as to the need of sub
drainage and how it appeals to them.
Let US hope that men in office will
not hold aloof until they have to
get on the band wagon for the sake
OF being popular. Let us hear from
the Twenty Five Thousand Club and
kindred organizations. Here | be-
lieve. is chance to make yourselves
useful. I believe this is good
scheme; let us weigh it in the
balance and if found sound let US all
put our shoulders to the wheel and
push it along.'
