and are from other lands, do not
appear to place the English people
as a whole above the Americans
Several years ago a German scholarly
Journalist, DR.. Bernhard, thought that
the English were not superior
tO the intelligent people OF
other lands because they
were more given to reading. He
thought tina the fact hat they read
more than the peoples OF other lahos
was really no evidence of better Gull
ture and intelligence. But he seemed
to conclude that this much reading
was no evidence of more inteilectuai-
ity and real cultivation but the re
verse. He was not favorably I'M
pressed with what the English people
actually read. He asked as 10 the
real character of their reading and
asked what do the English read!
What sort of literature is it they de-
YOUR in street cars. waiting rooms,
railway carriages and even at concerts
and theatres in the intervals? Not
literature at all, but fiction OF the
worst "backstair' type, which IN
Germany would be cast aside scorn-
The doctor admits that a few GOOD
books are read by the minority.
This will be news to many, but 1T Is
probably correct information. we
all know what poor, trashy stuff is
generally devoured in our w coun-
try. The high sources Of education
are the king. OF course there are a
we'll educated few as compared with
the millions, but ignorance is pro-
found and abounds.
Concerning the Confederation Of
Colleges.
The growth of the federation Of
colleges in twenty years is very re-
| markable. It is stated that there are
now in operation two thousand and
sixty colleges belonging to the Organi-
zation with a membership Of 1873, 600
professors and students. There are
tw~enty-four periodicals published by
them, and 5000 OF the students are
engaged in studying missions. These
are interesting figures and reveal great
progress in behalf of usefulness and
utility. I obtain my figures from a
long report [ saw in the Nashville
Christian Advocate Of August 27th
last.

A NATION IN MOURNING

clerks wen about with sack-cloth
gowns over their ordinary dress. the
same being tied with white saShes
Indeed, for the past year, the most
common costume worn by the officials
has been white. Many have left off
wish to acquire merit, have covered
up their embroidery, removed every
bit of red from their gowns. and have
even dOnned sack cloth.
Blue Store Signs.
The putting on If mourning has
not been confined to the people. Many
things material, ordinarily red and
gold, have been covered with blue or
white. At the railroad stations the
baggage carts a blue paper pasted
over them; the trolley cars of Tientsin
and for a time they had white cloths
over the red signs on their sides. For
one hundred days after the mperor
died every policeman in China wore a
wide white band around his left arm,
and for a few days after that every
merchant put a table covered with a
white cloth on the street in front Of
his shop. This table contained two
mourning candlesticks Of white
pewter and a pewter bowl. in which
sticks of incense were burned. All
OF the store ign of red and gold
were covered with blue paper, on
which new signs were painted, and
even the numbers on the doors or
door plates were made white and blue.
This was SO not only Of Picking. but
Of places like Mukden. Hankow and
Canton. It was so everywhere. The
cars have blue cushions, and the pas
senger wheeI-barrows, which usually
have red blankets were covered with
blue.
The Mourning at the Palace.
There were many queer things about
the mourning at the palace. I spent
much time around the gates Of the
Forbidden city. and had considerable
to do with the high officials. Tor
many days after the empress dow
ayers death her 5000 eunuchs went
dressed in white. The buttons were
taken Off their caps, and they looked
like yellow-faced ghosts. It was the
same with the officials. They came
to the palace in chairs covered with
blue, or in carriages with blue wrap
pings. The highest officers wore
sackcloth, their faces and heads were
unshaven and their fingernails uncut.
Among the mourners, however,
there were some singular exceptions.
| noticed that many of h servants
and officials had on the brightest of
joyful red gowns and that their scalps
were shaved clean. They were in
striking contrast with the sack cloth
about them. and 1 asked h they
might be. They were the servants
Immediately connected with the baby
emperor, who had Just come to the
throne: and it hence was improper
for them to wear emb.ems Of grief
upon such an event.
At the time of the browning of the
emperor all the officials ~suspended
their mourning and came out in gay
clothing while the celebration took
place. Immediately thereafter they

CAUSE FOR ALARM
LOSS OF APPETITE OR DISTRESS
AFTER EATING SYMPTOMS
THAT SHOULD NOT BE
DlsREGARDED.

Appetite is just a natural desire Of
the system for food necessary to re-
place natural body waste. Loss of
appetite or stomach distress after
eating indicates indigestion or dys-
pepsia. Over eating is a habit very
dangerous to a persons good general
health, and Unsuitable appetite is a
common symptom Of diabetes.
1t is not what you eat but what
you digest and assimilate that does
you good. Some of the strongest,
heaviest and healthiest persons are
moderate eaters.
There is nothing that will create
sickness or cause more trouble than
a disordered stomach, and many
people daily contract serious maladies
simply through disregard or abue of
the stomach.
We urge everyone suffering from
any stomach arrangement, indiges-
ton or dyspepsia, whether acute or
chronic, to try RexaM Dyspepsia Tab
let's, with the distinct understanding
that I'VE will refund their money with
out question or formality, if after
reasonable use of this medicine, they
are not satisfied with the results. We
recommend them to our customers
every day, and have yet to hear any
every day and have yet to hear of amy
one who has not been benefited by
them,
We honestly believe Rexall Dyspep-
STA Tablets to be without equal. They
are made from the prescription OF a
physician who devoted his time to the
study and treatment of stomach trou-
bles. They give very prompt relief
stimulating the secretion of gastric
juices, strengthen the digestive or

We urge you to try a 25-cent box

AT the recent meeting of the board
OF railroad commissioners held at
Darlington, an order Of more than
usual interest to the people of the
country west Of the Missouri river
and to the travelling public in gener-
al, as issued, and the same was made
public today.
Since the inauguration of the new
time card on the Northern Pacific,
there has been much complaint from
some Of the smaller towns that they
were not getting proper passenger
service. The members of the rail
road commission recently made a trip
over the road between Miandan and
Dickinson and as result the follow
ing order has been entered:
This commission having thorough
ly investigated the various complaints
relating to local passenger train SER
vice west of the Missouri river in this
state on the main line of the North
ern Pacific railway, and having been
convinced that the allegations of the
compliments are true and that the
train service is utterly inadequate
and insufficient, hereby determined
that in order that the said service
may be adequate to the demands Of
tine present passenger traffic between
stations in that territory, service
should be inaugurated which in addi-
ton to the service as now maintained
should provide for the following stops,
to-wit:
THAT stations Lyons and Sweet
Briar should be made flag stations
for Mos. Z and 8, and that Southheart
should be made a flag station for No.
8 and that trains Nos. and 4 should
be required to stop at New Salem.
Glen Ullin, Medora and Beach, and
should be required to stop on flag
at Hebron, Richardton, Belfield and
Sentinel lButte-or that in the event
of the restoration of trains Nos. 5
and 6, or Is and 16, or trains afford
ing equal service, these stops may
be made by these trains.
TT is further ordered that the SER
vice herein above specified shall be
in augurated immediately and main
tanned until further orders of this
commission"
Dated at Darlington, N. D., this 9Th
day of December, 1909.

ASHAMED TO TAKE THE MONEY

ASHAMED TO TAKE THE MONEY.
The local police department needed
a special IMAM this last week to act
ON special duty, so it was agreed that
any honest man could serve. The
honest man was placed on duty for
period of two days, which time
they thought was long enough to &C
complish the desired point. After
performing his duty he was awarded
with a warrant, as is customary, for
the SUM Of four dollars. On receipt
of the warrant the honest man that
was chosen, Thought it was too much
and returned two dollars, saying that
he only worked one day. This man
should have the next regular position
that is open.
