lone Touch of Nature Makes the Whole
World Kin"

When a rooster finds big fat worm
he calls all the hens in the farm yard to
come and share it. A similar trait OF
human nature is to be observed when a
man discovers something especially good
he wants all his friends and neighbors
to share the benefit of his discovery.
This is the touch of nature that makes
the whole world kin. This explains why
people who have been cured by Cham
belain's Cough Remedy write letters
to the manufacturers for publication,
that others similarly ailing may also use
it and obtain relief. Behind every one
of these letters is warm hearted wish
of the writer to be of use to some one
else. This remedy is for sale by Tiss d

great faith of the future of Oakes and
are planning for the needs of their de-
nomination. Oakes is no longer
prairie town but has become with in
crease in value of farm lands and rail-
road terminals a great business center
and it needs no prophet to forecast the
rapid development of our city in the
next few. years. The business men
told the finance committee they wanted
no apology of building but perma-
nent churchly edifice. The finance
committee are well pleased and ap-
preciate the help rendered by their
congregation and community and know
the generous hearted ndpublic spirited
citizens of Oakes will see that the
treasury does not lack for any necessary
funds.
The building committee is well pleased
with the substantial and speedy work
being done by our pioneer and honored
contractor, A. Ritterbush, and his
corps of helpers. The material was all
on ground in less than thirty days after
contract was let. Not stone had to
be chiselled, so accurate and true were
foundation Dimensions, and every part
of work is being executed in very
workmanlike manner, and the building
will no doubt be completed and turned
over to church by date of contract,
Dec. i, 1908.
The board of trustees very stongly
favored local firms and have carried
out that plan. Ritterbush & Son,
general contractors; Marsh & Son, were
awarded painting and finishing; Bush
Hardware Co. the furnace, etc. The
Hebron pressed brick is a North Dakota
product that has few equals as build
ing material. s N'st-
The pastor speaks very highly Of his
committees in giving him such strong
support in this enterprise and their
cordial cooperation. q
Next Saturday at 8 p. m. the corner
stone will be laid with duly impressive
ceremonies. Rev. S. A. Danford of
Fargo will deliver the address. The
pastor will lay the cornerstone and viii
be assisted by local pastors of other

CONCRETE PIERS
TO SAVE WHARVES
Reassuring Tests Are Made by
HarbOr Commission at
Lombard Street

The harbor commissioners yesterday
viewed the concrete pier that was driv-
en- rs test at Lombard street wharf
some months ago and vas pulled up
Friday and stripped Of its wooden jack
et. revealing cylinder OF smooth. hard
concrete. It was the falling down of
several OF these cylinders at Filbert
street wharf that induced the com
missioners 10 make the experiment.
one Of the cylinders that fell down
was fished out OF the bay few days
ago. and the revelation that followed
tho removal OF the wooden casing
caused grave anxiety for all the new
wharves that have been built on these
concrete piers.
NEGLIGENCE or NORTON
When Filbert street wharf was built
in leO2 The Call called attention to the
fact that the work was not being done
according to specifications, = and
charged Lott d. Norton. the chief en-
Efneer OF the board then in Office. with
nsving changed the specifications for
the benefit OF the contractor.
The specifications had been prepared
by Howard Holmes. Norton's prede-
ccssor, who was the originator of this
method Of wharf construction. Holmes
specincstions required that the cylin-
GERS be pumped out before the con-
orete was put In. and also stipulated
that where all the water could not be
pumped out the cement be put in in
bags. Norton admitted having changed
The specifications. and in justification
said that Holmes precautions were un-
lecessary. The work was finished un-
der Norton's supervision.
Then some OF the cylinders sank and

knocked down during q ncrther Al
though evidently broken. these piles
were Strengthened Up. wooden cylin-
ders driven around them and the ce-
ment poured in on the Norton plan.
The fallen cylinder pulled out OF the
bay and opened contained a cluster of
broken-off plies. When the wooden
Jacket was removed the inside fell out.
Instead OF being concrete IL consisted
OF loose rock and sand. At the top
where the cream OF the cement foated
was 4 solid cylinder.

The test pier was made strictly ac-
cording TO specifications, and the re-
suit shows that with honest super
vision there will remain when the
wooden jacket wears away a pillar ol
solid concrete.
The result of this test is reassuring
IS there are more than 5000 of these
concrete piers holding up state prop
erty all along the water front
