TRY MOBLAW AT CANDO
Reported That Band Of Young Hood
lums, Attempted to Drive Man
Out of Town.

Cando Democrat: 1t Is evident that
the mob law has not gone out Of date
yet. On last Thursday night a num-
Der of Cando's citizens banded together
for the purpose of annihilating one
Dave Blocher, who was alternating the
affections of one of their number. 1t
seems that the girl In question had
been cautioned by her mother to let all
town boys alone, for they were bad
lot. But she, being unable to resist
the smiles of cupid, had allowed one
young man the privilege Of coming
to see her with the aforesaid result
He was given twenty-four hours In
which to leave town, and If he was, stin
In town, at the end OF that time, he was
to receive sall that was coming to him
and little bit more Not satisfied
with this threat, they kept up such a
disturbance that Blocher was forced to
spend the night at one of the neigh
bors., The next morning he made a
complaint to. the authorities and the
boys were soon all gathered I'D In
States attorney Kehoe's Office. where
they received very strong reprimand
They were permitted to go unpunishe6
with the understanding that they were
to leave Blocher alone. The next time
It, occurs drastic measures will be

RECOVER FROM BURNS
Men Who Were Victims of Gasoline
Explosion at kuIm Said To Be
Recovering Nicely.

Kuhn Messenger: The men who were
burned by the explosion of the gasoline
lamp at the Hillius house last Thurs
day evening are all getting along as
well as could be expected. Rev. Wag-
ner was taken to the hospital at Oakes,
and while The Messenger has not been
able to learn much regarding his con-
dition, ii is said that he is recovering
slowly, but may yet lose his eyesight
and 1t might be necessary to ampu-
tate his hands. p. r. Fields was taken
to Aberdeen, and while it was not
thought that he stood much of chance
for recovery at the time he was taken
away. later reports were to the effect
that he is doing nicely; that the swell
ing has all gone down and he is not
suffering very much pain at this time.
His many friends here and elsewhere
are more than pleased to know of his
Improvement, as very few OF us ex-
pected that he would recover when he
was taken away on the train last Fri
day evening. G. w. Mikes, the st
Paul man, is still at the Hillius house
and has been able to leave his room
/ q part of the time during the week
I George ]. Walker Is still confined I,
4 his room, and, while he suffered con
siderable pain for several days, is nov
much better and the burns are healing
rapidly. Everyone is pleased to OBJ
serve their rapid Improvement an,
hope to see them all out soon.

CANE INSANE FROM LONELINESS
Miss lngabor Western Of Lansdon, NJ.
., Whose Methsr Was Invalid for
Twenty Ysars and Father was Help.
less Loses Her Mind--sad Tragedy.

Minot N. d., March 1e.--The world
has read OF the heroism OF Joan OF
Arc and the nnselfshness Of Florence
Nightingale, but not many read about
the lives Of devotion and unseIfish-
ness in the home.
On the hmitlsas praries Of western
North Dakota two years ago lived a
beautiful young girl, Miss Ingabor
Western, and her aged parents, who
resided on claims near Oscar, Ward
county. The parents and the daughter
had journeyed from Minnesota In
search Of land, some place, where they
might build q home that would sup
port them during the remaining days
Of their livss.
The girl loved her parents with the
deepest devotion. She had many
friends In the Minnesota village. and
she consented to leave those that she
might assist her parents In securing
a farm in North Dakota.
Her mother had been an invalid for
twenty years and her father was
practically helpless. But the girl had
CHEEKY nature and wealth OF hope.
She was sure she could provide for her
parents.
Two claims were secured in Ward
county, and Ingabor with the feeble
assistance OF her father began to de-
velop the farm. Lack Of capital and
diraculty Of securing good help prov
ed great obstacle, but Lngabor did
not give up and for. several years she
earned living for herself and her
parents.
Some day the silver, cord WIN
break" That day came in the life Of
lnsabor, when wearied with years of
incessant toll and exhausted beyond
recovery. she became insane and had
to be taken to, the jamestown asylum.
Some Of the Minnesota relatives
hearing that the girls parents had
come west and secured a home start
en- g campaign to get hold of the
property to recompense themselves
for taking cs%s OF the father and
mother for a short period. They sue
ceeded to some extent, and in a short
time both parents died.
Now the girl is confined in the asy-
lum, hopelessly insane, and her estate
has been turned over to Public ad-
ministrator Clark Hovey.

who had charge of the play, expressed

extensive experience along theatrical
lines having been on the; road with

A POSITIVE CURE
FOR INDIGESTION
Food Improperly Digested ROts in
the Stomach and Bowels.

Plain language, but true in 90 per
cent Of the cases of stomach trouble.
DO you have little desire for food,
and eat Just a little from force OF
habit, feel overfull uneasy and dis
tressed Immediately after eating; have
diff1culty in breathing; belching Of gas
with taste OF sour food in mouth?
If you shave any of the above symp-
toms you have indigestion-your food
ferments in the stomach and bowels.
1t does more: it decays. and the nutri-
tious matter which should go TO make
new blood decays with It. and this
leads to an impoverished condition OF
the blood. to nervousness, billiousness.
constipation, sick headache, bad
breath, which disgusts your friends,
and other disagreeable and unpieas-
ant conditions.
And all this trouble is caused by the
food that doesn't digest, but ferments
in the stomach.
And fermentation is caused by the
stomach not being strong enough TO
thoroughly mix the food with the al
gestive juices
Tired out stomach you might call
it, but at any rate 1t should be quickly
rectifed If you would enjoy life. MI
o-na is recognized the world over as
the leading stomach tonic, and 1t is
responsible for tens Of thousands OF
cures. In fact, it is such positive
cure for indigestion and all stomach
troubles that 1t Is guaranteed to cure
or money back. 1t is for sale and
guaranteed in Fargo by the Waldorf
Pharmacy for so cents a large box
Mi-o-na is sold in every city IN Amer
/ lea, and 1t is sure to relieve the worst
case Of Indigestion or gastritis in q
few hours
