THE HOME Mis-. a. z- e. n sz
Shoe Fly!

Shoe Fly!
The first fly appeared not long ago,
and gave tacit notice that host of
his brothers and sisters are on the
way. Are your screen doors in work
ing order? Are provisions ready for
catching the flies who escape the out
err guard? There is nothing more dis
agreeable or disgusting than a house
or store filled with swarms of flies.
The following simple method of get
ting rid of them is recommended:
Close all the windows and add a
quarter of a teaspoonful of carbolic
acid to a pint of water and allow it to
come to a boil for five minutes, then
raise your windows and what flies are
not dead will leave the room. Once
or twice week will rid your home of
the pests as well as destroy other
germs that may be in your home.

A HOME SONG.

I turned an ancient poets book,
And found upon the page:
"Stone walls do not a prison make
Nor iron bars a cage"
Yes, that is true, and something more;
You'll find e'er you roam,
That marble floors and gilded halls
Can never make a home.
But every house where Love abides
And Friendship is a guest,
Is surely home, and home, sweet home,
For there the heart can rest.
Henry Van Dyke.

MEDICINAL VEGETABLE FOODS.

Cranberries correct the liver.
Asparagus stimulates the kidneys.
Carrots are excellent for govt.
Watercress is an excellent blood
purifier.
Parsnips possess the same virtues
as sarsaparilla.
Celery contains sulphur and helps
to ward off rheumatism.
Bananas are beneficial to sufferers
from chest complaints.
Celery is nerve tonic; onions also
are tonic for the nerves.
Beet root is fattening and good for
people who want to put on flesh.
Tomatoes are good for torpid liver,
but should be avoided by equity people.
Lettuce has a soothing effect on the
nerves and is excellent for sufferers
from insomnia.
Spinach has great aperient qualities
and is far better than medicine for
sufferers from constipation.

A woman advertised for hired girl

prefer to have the potatoes cooked

The lecturer had been describing
some of the sights he had seen abroad
"There are some spectacles," he said,

AN IGORROTE VILLAGE
A Tribe Of These Queer Beings Of
the Philippines are to be at the
State Fair

Every one who attended tn e
worlds fair at st. Louis rememb-
er the lgorrote Village. The lg-
Orrotes are dog eaters. With them
the dog is a ceremonial dish, they
ascribe to the flesh of the canine
the virtue of nerving up their
warriors. However, their chief
food is rice.
This tribe now is great attrac-
ton at Dreamland, Luna Park,
Coney Island. As soon as the en-
glgement at Luna Park ends,
September lst, Capt. j. McRea,
late of the Philippines constabul-
AIRY, who is in charge of the tribe,
will start with his sixty members
for the Seattle exposition. The
tribe will be returned from Seattle
to their native homes never to be
placed on exhibition again SO long
as Uncle Sam shall exercise his
protection over the islands.
Capt. McRae calls his village
an educational exhibit, and says it
is one that appeals to intelligent
and thinking people. For more
than 1900 years these little brown
skinned people have dwelt in the
mountai n Businesses of LuZOn, and
their queer antics provide pro-
found study. They may be seen
at the state fair at Huron Sept. l3-
Is, and will rschly repay as well as
deeply interest the student of
humanity.

An important Complaint

a citizen of Lennon, South Da-
kOta, town in the western por-
ton of the state, has filed a com
plant with the interstate COM
merce commission against the Chi
cago. Milwaukee & Puget Sound
Railway company. The COM
plainant contends that he should
be given the benefit of through
freight rates from Minneapolis to
Lennon, instead of being COM
PEELED to pay local rates.
The railroad mentioned in the
complaint is the Pacific extension
of the Chicago, Milwaukee & st.
Paul, having its eastern terminus
at a point on the Missouri river
some 80 miles east of Lennon.
Between the Missouri river al d
Lennon a local rate is charged, in
addition to the rate charged to the
Missouri river.
This local charge is made upon
the assumption that the freight is
delivered at the river to another
railroad company, when it is a
physical fact that the freight rolls
on to Lennon without being sub
iected to any hinderance or with
out breaking bulk.
Many complaints have been
made about this practice and the
decision of the commerce COM
mission will be one of pecuniary
importance to shippers along that
road west of the Missouri river.

Resolves to Extend

The Belle Fourche Valley Raj
way company, branch of the
Northwestern road, has filed IA
resolution of extension of its line
in the Office of the secretary of
state. The resolution is to extend
from Belle Fourche, the present
terminus. east siXtythree miles to
point about six miles north of
White Owl, which is about seventy
miles northwest of Philip. The
survey for this line has been COM
pleted, and it is understood that
work on the grading will COM
mence right away. Considerable
of the construction material is now
stored in the material yards at
Belle Fourche.
\ gang of nineteen surveyors
90 into camp this week at Ash
Creek postotlice, thirty miles out
Of Philip. They have surveyed
from the end of the accepted sur
vey north of White Owl down BIG
Thunder creek into tie Cheyenne
river valley, and up Ash creek to
their present camp. They will
continue to the head of Ash Creek
across the divide and work down
Mexican creek to three miles out
of Philip, then into town. 1t is
anticipated that the survey will
reach here in about three weeks.
While nothing has been dctcrm-
ined definitely and publicly con-
cerning the road from here to the
northwest, it is entirely proba bic
that such a line will be construct
ed. 1t will mean much to the
country along the route, at present
some distance from railroad faclll-
ties, and it is more than probable
it will mean great deal to Philip.

Underwood Has a $4,000 Fire

Underwood, the second station
east of Rapid City. received a de
cided set back early Thursday
morning by fire which destroyed
a good part of the business section
of the town. The fire was discOv-
cred about three o'clock in the
morning and was burning briskIy

the town. Water rose to the height
of three feet i'm the streets and did
considerable damage to merchants.
The loss occasioned by the fire will
amount to about $4,000. on which

Booze Packers Prolific

Fort Pierre is finding that pro-
hibition with simply a river be-
tween it and booze is hard to en-
force. The Capital Journal says
that since prohibition struck our
county seat town, the greatest ar
ray of suit cases, hand bags of
large dimensions, ordinary satch-
els and grain bags ever seen out
side a hawk shop have come into
play between the boat landing on
the Pierre side and the places
where extract of barley is dis
pensed.
