1t was on a new years early dawn,
when Mike Spaight went his way to
early mass. It had rained for week,
the roads were impossible. on account
of the neglect of the city council
and the worst of all the places in the
city was where Mike stopped to hail a
man who stood in the middle Of the
road, fish pole in hand-hear him a
boat was peacefully floating in a puddle
of mud and sign was nearby which
read: "Fish worms for sale" by
-. Mike dimly saw the figure of
the man in the deep mud in the
middle of the street He hailed him
several times but no answer. Finally
Mike with samaritan spirit rolled
up his pants and waded towards the
man, who evidently was in distress,
when near enough he grabbed him by
the arm and shook him and found it
was a dummy. Mikes surprise was
great, but his expression can not here
be recorded. A photograph was
taken next day of the sane and many
were sold. The city fathers should
make Karl Orion hunt up the old
negative get at least one copy taken,
to be preserved in the annals of the
city records with the legend; as it
used to be in. the ''good old times. -

Cures Dyspepsia;

1t is a popular mistake that only
wealthy people who eat rich and
highly-spiced foods suffer from dys-
pepsia, or, as it is also known, indi-
gestion. The laborer in the street,
the worker in the field also finds him
self victim of this disorder. Among
the very greatest sufferers from it are
women.
Dyspepsia Is indicated by constant
feeling OF iaziness. by less of appetite ana
tress after eating, by bad complexion and
iusterless eyes.
There is no surer and speedier cure FOR
this trouble than DR.. CaidweiPs Syrup

EQUAL SUFFRAGISTS
ORGANIZE CAMPAIGN

Yankton, S. D., June 5.-After lying
M for 20 years the equal suffrage
movement has suddenly sprung to life
and it leaked out here Wednesday that
the fair sex is planning for a big state
at Aberdeen, June IS, at
which will be started an active cam
paign to win suffrage at the polls. This
sudden activity has come about
through the action last winter of the
state legislature in submitting an equal
suffrage bill to the voters of the state
for their approval or rejection. The
national association has Sent Miss
Laura Gregg, of Kansas, into the South
Dakota field and Miss Gregg spoke here
Wednesday and organized a local COM
mittee, whose object will be to create
local sentiment in favor of the move
ment. Miss Gregg is now on a tour
through the state and a big convention
IS lookee for at Aberdeen, as the OPP
portunity to get their rights is not
by any means going to be overlooked
by the ladies of the state, who have
planned for q thoroughly organized and
active c~arapaign.
