SOUTH DAKOTA

The first horses OF the western plains
were probably brought there by the
Spaniards. In l545, almost 80 years be-
fore jamestown was settled, Coronado,
the Spanish captain, was roaming about
the plains OF New Mexico; and he tells
of the dogs used by the Indians 10 haul
their plumber on lodge poles, indicating
that they had no horses at that date.
In 1915 the Spanish again worked their
way eastward across the plains, and
their letters tell of the establishment or
the Indians at seeing h horses they
had with them. The expedition was
constantly losing horses. and there is
little doubt that the first droves OF
western horses originated from these
strays.

WHY SALVES FAIL
 TO CURE ECZEMA
They Clog the Pores-only a Liquid
 Can Reach the Inner Skin

Since the old-fashioned theory of cur. ing eczema through the blood has been given up by scientists, many different salves have been tried for skin diseases But it has been found that these salves only clog the pores and can not pene- trate to the inner skin below the cpl dermis where the eczema germs are lodged.
 This--the quality of penetrating probably explains the tremendous sue cess of the only standard liquid eczema cure, oil of wintergreen as compounded in D. D. D. Prescription. After ten years of cure after cure, the world $ leading skin specialists have accepted this as the true eczema cure.
 We ourselves do not hesitate to recon mend D. D. D.. Prescription at $l.O0 a bottle, but for the benefit of those who have never tried the prescription, we arranged with the D. D. D. Laboratories of Chicago for a special large trial bot tie at 9 cents on a special offer now.

LOCAL PEST HOUSE
 N0T NEEDED
Has Not Been Required for Isolation Since Loot
 ing Last Year

Considerable press comment has been made of late on the footing of the pest house at Cheyenne, as the result of which that institution was. striped of a part of its furnishings, but, as a matter of fact, that town has nothing on Globe.
 The Globe pesthouse was footed over year ago, as a few local people who knew of the occurrence will remember, Not only did the thieves take the bed dings, some of the beds, a quantity. of cast off clothing and other similar articles, but the stove as well.
 The theft of the furnishings of the pest house was not learned until some time afterwards, as naturally this build ing is not frequented to any great ex. tent.
 The most singular fact in connection with the footing of the pest house is that since that time there has not been a single call for it's use.
 The building has fallen into disuse and no attempt has been maf V o re- furnish it, as even the men who footed the place escaped without contracting smallpox or any other serious disease.

NEW BARBER SHOP
 WILL BE FINEST IN ARIZONA
Hoeye & Mercy Will Throw Parlors Open to the
 Public Today

The new Ruby barber shop, which, when completed, win be one of the fin. est tonsorial parlors in the terr.ory, will be opened for business today.
 While the new shop will be thrown open today, it will not be complete. Six handsome chairs and part of the furnishings are in place, but owing to the non-ariyal of part of the fixtures, temporary arrangements have been made in regard to part of the equip ment
 The six chairs are of the most ap- proved type, being entirely made of metal and leather, with the exception ot the arm rests. Enameled iron fig ures prominently in the construction of these chairs and they give the impres. sion of being entirely sanitary,
 The head rests of these chairs are a feature in themselevs. A roll of paper feeds across the rest, insuring each patron with clean and entirely sani- tary head rest, during the course of his shave.
 Two baths arc provided. An cleo trie face massage machine will be in. stalled and, within short time. a manieuring department will be added.
 A handsome shine stand and one of the best cigar stores in the territory, the latter conducted by Charles Asche, will occupy the front O fthe brrlding.
 "0ur shop is not completed, owing to the non-arrival of our fixtures, v said L. E. Hoeye of Hoeye & Mercy, the proprietors of the shop, yesterday, ''But we will open Thursday and com plete the shop as soon as possible"
 ''We plan to have the most expert barbers in town and while we have gained the reputation of doing good work at the old shop, we will do just little better work here and do it all the time.
 ''I am well pleased with the appear. ance of the shop and Fcan candidly say that when the Ruby is entirely com plete, there will not be a shop in the territory that can surpass it, either in appearance or in the quality of ton sorial work turned out. '
 Located next door to the postoffice the new shop is easily accessible to the business men of his city and as both Hoeye and Mercy are well known they should work up an excellent busi. ness in a short time.
