Sioux city Journal: The rush to
the TGpp county land opening is ON.
Sunday night over 800 passengers,
most Of them Sioux Cityans, left over
the Northwestern for the land of
promise OF this number 1Ol went
to O'Neill, five to Gregory and the bal
arce to Dallas. Tho Northwestern
is making arrangements to put on
tourists cars for the accommodation
Of the homoseckers.
Many students at Morning Side col
lege are planning to go to Gregory
or O'NeiI, Neb., to take a chance on
the quarter sections to be drawn.
Most Of those who intend TO 80 are
boys, but in a few instances girls have
decided that 1GO acres Of good farm
land would not be bad investment
and will take their chances with the
others.
Most of the people headed for Dal-
las, Gregory and O'Naill for resstra-
ton are travelling light. rot Owe" a
this it is evident that they intend to
remain only long enough to register.
Some carry oyercoats. A few wear
fur coats.
Left Politics Home With the Grips.
Formerly the groups at the depot
talked politics. Now they discuss the
Rosebud, their chances of drawing,
the movements Of trains, when they
intend to return home.
The only politics which came to the
surface today was some shouting for
the presidential candidates. This was
started by one man, a Bryanite. He
soon gathered a noisy set around him,
which provoked a counter cheering
from Taftites. The cheering was
drowned out when an east bound train
came rumb,ins in. 1t was all good
natured and was unaccOmpanied by
wrangling over political issues, such
as bank guarantys, which is quite
common at the Junction depot.
This Man Had a Grip.
Ned Stanncr, of Scotia, was a per
picked man Monday, He arrived Sun
day intending to register at Dallas.
After putting his grip on the Dallas
train at the Junction he changed his
mind and bought a ticket for O'Ncill
He forgot the grip, which contained
some valuable papers, and did not dis
cover his loss until too late
Mr.. Stanner returned TO the June
ton Monday, meanwhile telegraphiag
to The uainmen at Dallas for the grip.
AT the Junction depot Monday he was
feyorishly waiting its return.

wished to know what people thought
of it. So he strolled over to Ger

INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT THE
FARMERS UNION.

The Georgia division of the Farmers
Union has $500 local Unions, and about
100000 members. The National Union
is organized in about twenty-six States,
and has 100000 members,
It's motto is Education and Corpora
ton. Its aim is to promote the best
interest of the farmer. 1t is non-polit-
ical. No official in the Union can be
"a candidate for a political office. He
must resign his Office in the Union be-
fore he runs for any national, state,
county or municipal place.
The Union was founded at Mineola,
Texas, III August, 1902, six years ago.
The first attempt at organization in
Georgia was in 1904. In 1905, 1905 and
1907 the Union took part in the Georgia
State Fair, and this year it has loaned
it's good will to the enterprise.
Mr.. Charles S. Barrett, native Geor-
gian, is president of the National organ
ization.
Mr.. p. F. Duckworth is president OF
the Georgia division.
National and State headquarters are
at Union City, near Fairburn, eighteen
miles from Atlanta, on the Atlanta and
West Point railroad.

Birds That Bury Nuts.

"Birds as well as squirrels bury
nuts for winter use," said a Colum-
bus teacher who is an amateur or
nlthologist. 81 have watched jay
birds at work in oak trees in the
fall very often, laying up stores for
winter use. They were as busy as
could be taking the nuts and bury
ing them under the leaves on the
ground. They seem to have instinct
that leads them to find the nuts
again. In fact, | have seen a jay
bird fly down upon the ground and,
throwing the snow aside, uncover
and secure a buried apple core. -

A BLACK EYE.
The Proper Way to Treat This IN.
slightly Disagreement.


A black eye is simply bruise, a
black and blue spot, of the eyeIids
and the parts underneath the orbit
All these tissues being very loose
and spongelike in texture, the blood
which escapes beneath the skin in
all cases of bruising and constitutes
the black and blue mark spreads
very widely and causes great disfg-
urement.
Sometimes, il the injury has been
severe, there will be an escape of
blood beneath the membrane cover
ing the eyeball, but the eyeball
itself usually escapes serious dam
age, owing to its elasticity and to
the efficient protection afforded by
the bony ring forming the edges of
the orbit.
A short time after the injury has
been received swelling of the part
sets in, the skin is Redeemed and
hot, and there is feeling of ten
sion, if not more or less actual pain.
This is the time to treat the bruise
in order to prevent as far as posi-
bic the formation of the 'black
eye"
If nothing is done, the discolora
ton soon appears, first of a dark
reddish purple color and then al
most black. Later it fades off with
a play of colors, green, blue and yell
low, until gradually all traces of the
accident disappear.
The first thing to do, and that as
soon as possible, is to apply cooling
lotions to the part. A good way to
do this is to keep two small handker-
chiefs in a bowl of ice water and
apply them alternately, squeezed dry
and folded four ply. As soon as one
handkerchief grows warm it should
be replaced by the other.
By the end of the first day the
cold applications will have done all
the good they can, and then hand
kerchiefs wrung out of very hot wa
ter, in which borax or boric acid has
been dissolved, should be applied
and changed every minute or two
At the same time the discolored part
may be stroked gently with the fin
ger for ten or fifteen minutes at q
time every two or three hours. This
is tedious process, but it will short

rassment by three or four days il

EPISTOLARY APPRECIATION.
The Art of Letter Writing In the olden
Times.

Times.
Not infrequently complaint is
made in the magazines and more
conservative newspapers that the
art of letter writing has been lost !;
that the grace and charm as exempli-
fed in the correspondence of writer's
IN other days find no parallel in
this matter of fact period.
Answer is usually returned that
the man or woman of today is too
busily engaged to permit of their in
diligence in the epistolary affecta-
tons of olden times. Certainly the
letter writers of those days enjoyed
the advantage of great leisure. 1t is
difficult otherwise to account for
their prodigality of phrasing.
Lady Pomfret, we are told, pre-
sented to Lady Hereford a pair of
alabaster vases and received in re-
turn a letter of thanks fitted to the
times.
''rhere is" wrote the recipient of
the vases, can elegance in them SUI
perior to anything l ever saw, and
yet, lnestimable and beautiful as
they are in themselves, their being
mark of your friendship enhances
their value to me even beyond their
merit. sit and look at them with
admiration for an hour together. l
have not room in the house worthy
Of them, no furniture good enough
to tit with them-in short, | find a
thousand wants that never entered
my head before l am grown ambi-
tious all at once and want to change
my house for a palace and to ran
sack all the cabinets in Europe for
paintings, sculptures and other curl
osities to place with them"
Even Lady Pomfret, who was her
self a pretty fair phrasemaker,
seems to have been a little abashed
by her friends enthusiasm.
"You quite confound me, dear
madam, she replled, with the en-
comiums you bestow upon a couple
of alabaster vases fit only for the
obscurity of grotto and very Justly
make me blush for having sent so
tritlng present"
This extravagant diction is equal
ed by that of the Princess Craon
when writing to Sir Horace Wal
pole. After thanking Walpole for
some trife the princess says:
"The generosity of your friend
ship for me, sir, leaves me nothing
to desire of all that is precious in
England, China and the Indies."-
Chicago Record Herald.
