TWICE CURED OF
 SKIN TROUBLES
First Case a Rash Which Itched and
 Stung-Threatened Ten Years Later With Blood Poison in Leg But Both Times the Sufferers
RELIANCE IN CUTICURA
 PROVED WELL-F0UNDED

About twelve or fifteen years ago, while living in West Virginia, had a breaking-out, and it itched and stung so badly that I could not have any peace because of it. 1 saw three doctors and they did not agree on what it was, so one of them gave me something that he called medicine, but l called 1t soda water. I might just as well have washed in -ain-water. Then l got some Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Ointment, and Cuticura Resolvent and began to get better right away. They cured me and l have not been bothered with the itch ing since, to amount to anything. About two years ago had la grippe and pneumonia which left me with a pain in my side. Treatment ran it into my leg, which then swelled and began to break out. It got in pretty bad shane, SO l went to a doctor. He was afraid it would turn to blood-poison. l used his medicine but it did no good. So l sent for another set of the Cuticura Remedies. l used them three times and cured the breaking-out on my leg. Now won't be without Cuticura. J. F. Hennen, R. F. D. 8, Milan, Mo-, May l3, i907."

Hundreds Attend
Minot's Market Day
Everything Sold We--Sale Lasted But Short Time.-
Next Market Day June 3O--Farmers
Already Listing Stuff

These are but few of the things
sold.
The next market day will be held
in Minot June 80. Farmers already
have begun to list articles with SEQ
field Bros. who will manage the sales
in the future.
The farmers may be charged a
small percent for selling their stuff
in the future, but this will not am
cunt to much.
There was a little misunderstood,
ing with some, which has been clear,
ed up by the first sale. Many thought
that only cash would buy the goods
Bankable paper however will go at
all of the sales, though it is better
to buy for cash.
Some farmers thought that if they
placed anything up, any bid would
take it. This is an error. Each own
er has a right to make one bid on
his property which if not raised will
allow the owner to keep the proper
ty. This seems to be fair with ev
orvOne

Minot's first market day was
success in every way. The crowd
was large, but would have been three
times as large had the sale occurred
a week or two later. Many farmers
were finishing flax seeding and

NO HEARING YET.

The hearing of the case of the
State of North Dakota VS.. Alfred
Gordon was continued from last Fri
day. over till Wednesday, and then
Justice Clarke received a telephone
message from Assistant County At
torney Murphy asking that the hear
ing be further continued to an indefi-
mite date in the future. We may be
mistaken, but we do not believe that
the citizens of Flaxton will tamely
submit to such treatment at the
hands of any lawyer, even though
he represents the County Attor-
ney himself. Mr. Gordon has been
held in the tolls for weeks and claims
that he desires the matter settled as
he confidently expects az. acquittal.
and is anxious to get to work. At
this writing the affair looks like a
travesity of justice, winked at, if
not approved by our County Attor-
ney.-Flaxton Times.

THE WOMEN INTERESTED.

Women have a vote at the prima-
ries for. superintendent of pubic in
struction and a good many have de-
elared that they mean to ex rc;se it.
especially against w. L. Stogkv:c'l.
the present incumbent, because Of
his hostility to women educators.
There is another grievance against
tbl superintendent. When he ]egis-
lative reference library was estab-
lished, Mrs. Minnie G. Bndlong Of
Bismarck, who enjoys almos a state
wide reputation for her literary at.
jsinments, was candidate for the
;.osition of librarian, she being al
ready a member of the library con,-
mission. She would have obtained it
tut for Stockwell's opposition. He
announced that there wasn't a wo-
nan in North Dakota fitted, SO he
imported one from Wisconsin who
has been placed in charge of the
library at a salary of $1,000 a year
This reflection upon the women II
North Dakota is going to be remem-
bered by some of the fair sex.

There is considerable excitement
among the farmers living northwest
of this city over the closing Of the
road, which extends northeast from
this city, at the top of the hill. Some
weeks ago John E. Reed and Frank
Linha, who own farms through which
this road ran, concluded that this
was not a regularly laid out road and
closed it by fencing in a portion Of
it. Thissof course causes those from
the northwest a longer drive into this
city, and an effort is being made to
reopen the road.
It Is declared that this road has
