The March meeting of the Dixie Chapter. U. D. C.. was held at the home of the President. Mrs. Wallace Screws.
 There was an unusually large att tendance. which evinced the renewed the chapter and their loyalty and de- votion to their State organization.
 AS usual, there were appeals for as- sistance from various chapters engag- ed in the laudable work of building monuments to perpetuate the deeds of heroes of the lost cause.
 An appeal from the Chairman of the Gettysburg Monument Fund was reaa and the chapter decided to send a con- tribution at an early date.
 The essay receiving the U. D. c. prize at Columbia University was a subject of much comment. A commit tee was appointed to prepare resolu- tions upon the subject.
 Many pleasant incidents of the tea which was given at the home of Mrs. Cobbs in February by the, chapter. were recalled. and a, vote of thanks given Mrs. Cobbs for the use of her lovely home and for her charming hoss pitality. 4s
 This was the first meeting of the chapter with the new president, and 1t will ever be remembered as one of the most pleasant and interesting in the history of the Dixie Chapter.
 A beautiful incident of the afternoon was the passing of a loving cup among the guests, and later. when delicious fruit cake and wine were served. hear ty toasts were given to the good health of Mrs. Screws.
 The chapter then adjourned to meet next In April.

Plus x is said to be committed to this
choice by the concordat with Portugal.
Says The New York Post:
AT least three Italians win be chosen
Granite di Belmonte, papal nuncio
at Vienna, almost surely, and two
workers, like Mons, Lugari, assessor
of the holy Office, and Mons. Giustini,
secretary Of the Congregation OF the
Sacrament France, whose normal
supply of cardinals is seven, has now
only three. Mons. Annette, archbishop
OF Paris is slated for one OF the
honors although his opinions have not
been sufficiently ultramontane to sat-
isfy the Jesuits. To offset him Mons.
Cabrieres, archbishop Of Montpeillier,
aristocratic and a thorough going reac-
tionary, may be selected. Mons. Jubil-
lard, archbishop of Chambery, is the
third possibility among French prelates
another to an Austrian. Finally Mons
Bourne, archbishop of Westminster, is
to receive the honor which Is long over
due. The death of Father George
Tyrrell, ex-Jesuit and ablest OF all the
modernists, has brought lull in Dr.
Bourne's jurisdiction, so that the vati-
can can promote him without misgiv-
ings.

NEW RED CAPS.

To what extent will America be rec
ognized by the convocation which is
soon to meet in the vatican?
Death has invaded the college OF
cardinals. Something like ten vacan-
cies are to be filled when this august
Sanhedrin of the church meets in
solemn council next year, and specula-
zion concerning the result is quite
natural among American Catholics
who. in loyalty to the church of Rome
In numerical strength. in aggregate
wealth and in Iiberality of contribu
tion to ecclestical causes, constitute
an important part of the household OF
Faith
But the probabilities are that the
red caps to be awarded to the forth
coming assemblage of the church
fathers win remain on the other side
of the water. In the opinion of one Of
the vatican correspondents, there art
many aspirants among American arch.
bishops for promotion to the cardinal.

THE YEARS BIG THING.

1
Good old 1909 is getting away rapid
Iy-and it has been a good one. 1t
would be difficult to convince North
Dakotans there had been many better
ones. The entire country has expert
enced most favorable conditions and the
era Of prosperity following the de-
preston of two years before has been
most gratifying.
Aside from prosperity of the closing
year, were many big things. One of
them was the polar discovery. For the
first time since creation, mortal man
stood at the top of the earth. This is
notable for It's scientific interest rather
than for its material benefit.
Probably the greatest thing Of the
year is the perfection of the heavier
than air flying machines. While it is
true that the inventions have not been
confined to 19O9-the developments of
1909 far exceed those any former year
has brought forth.
The Wrights, Curtiss, Lapham, Bleriot
and many other famous aeroplanists
have made flights which have clearly
demonstrated the airships have passed
the toy stage-and that as a means
OF transportation they must eventually
be reckoned with. Many companies
have been Incorporated for their man
ufacture, both in this country and In
Europe, and the world may we'll be said
10 have launched on its aerial fight
What seemed a decade ago to be
merely scientists dream has been
fully realized. Hundreds who a few
years ago made fun of Professor Lang
ley's efforts at air navigation have
watched the Wrights and others sail
gracefully through the air.
The airship is here. 1t is factor in
the present day development and must
be given serious consideration in the
readjustment of transportation
Emethods.
There have been many big things in
the year just closing and If 1910 but
continues to shower forth its blessings
Rs profusely this country win have nc
lcause for complaint.

A Handy Homemade Remedy
For Coughs and Colds

A cold or cough often comes on
quickly. This simple remedy, if kept
handy, will nip 1t in the bud. Although
inexpensive, there is nothing better at
any price. 1t usually stops deep
seated cough in twenty four hours, and
is splendid for hoarseness, whooping
cough, chest pains, bronchitis, etc.
Granulated Sugar Syrup 800. .13h OF.
Pinex ....... 2h OF.
Make plain syrup by mixing one
pint GRADUATED Sugar and one half
pint of warm water; stir for two min
utes. Put two and one-half ounces
Pinex in a pint bottle and fill up with
the Sugar Syrup Take q teaspoonful
every one, two or three hours.
None of the weaker pine preparations
will work in this recipe. Use the real
Pinex itself, which is the most val
liable concentrated compound of Nor
way White Pine Extract, and is rich
in all the healing elements of the pine.
ALI druggists have 1t or can easily get
it on request.
This recipe makes full pint of un-
equaIed cough syrup enough to last
a family a long time--for only 81 cents.
It is equally good for children and
adults, and mas a pleasing taste.
Strained honey can be used instead
of the syrup, and makes very fine
honey and pine tar cough syrup.
