Dancer of Rest In Sprains.

Spraincd ankles and knees are COM
monest on the football field, and we
fancy that it has been largely from
the experience gained in treating these
football injuries that surgeons have
come to realize the danger Of rest.
Gradually it has become evident that
most of the disability after sprains
resulted not from the sprain. but from
the treatment. the unhealthy stagna-
ton Of fluid about an unused joint, the
resulting adhesions and muscular afro
ply Now our football surgeons treat
their sprains by massage and moderate
exercise from the outset, thus avoid

tedious weeks Of convalescence which
they used to infiict.-London Family

STATE LEGISLATURE.
1911 State Legislative Session Met
This Week at Bismarck Big
Grist for Law Makers

The 1911 session of the North Dakota
will be one of the most inter
estlng held in many years Many
important questions are coming up.
Among these may be mentioned the
reapportionment of legislative represen-
tatlon: the proposition to repeal the wolf
bounty bill; the election of U, S. senator:
possible amendments to the primary law:
tax and railroad legislation; legislation
dealing with the question of conserva
ton; and it is altogether likely that the
Fargo people will raise the question of
the location of the state fair at that
place. In addition to these there will
be heavy grist of bills touching the
usual subjects and possibly few genu-
Inc surprises.
With such prospect, this years legis.
lature will be one of the most closely
watched assemblies in our history. In
order to satisfy the public with quick,
reliable news from the center Of things,
the Grand Forks Daily Herald has ar
ranged to keep representative in Bis
marck during the entire session, and to
give the people the best news service
possible concerning the affairs.
Would it not be worth while to take
advantage of this service by subscribing
for the Daily Herald. Three months for
one dollar. Do it NV.

The First Snowfall,

Those who have lived all their lives
in snowess climes are denied one SOW
ereign delight that nature showers
upon millions of mortals. the first
snowfall of the season. 1t is a delight !
that is mingled with pathos and re-
gret, yet partakes also of the pleasures
Of anticipation. When the first fall of
snow is heavy enough to coat the up
tops of fences and the roofs with vel
vet white one recalls those tender lines
of Lowell:
The snow had begun in the cleaning
And busly all the night
Had been heaping field and highway
With a silence deep and white.
Every pine and fir and hemlock
Were ermine too dear for an earl,
And the poorest twig on the elm tree
Was ridged inch deep with pearl
From sheds new rooted with Carrara
Came chanticleerS muff1ed crow,
The stiff rails softened to swansdown,
And still fiuttered down the snow.
How rude and crude is art when
compared with natures more delicate
pencilings! Sometimes we look at
picture, a painting. whereon human
artist has sought to depict fragment
of the winter world in snow time. No
matter how great the genius of the
painter the counterfeit is poor shoddy
beside the original. Let US go out
doors whenever opportunity presents
and study the sublime picture wrought
by a snowfall. Wherever snow falls
such pictures are created, whether in
town or country. Mere prose is made
quate to describe the infinite beauty of
the scene. Let us quote another poet,
Emerson:
Come, see the north winds masonry!
Out of an unseen quarry evermore,
Furnished with tile, the fierce artificer
Curves his white bastions with projected
Round every windward stake or tree or
door.
= Mockingly
On coop or kennel he hangs Parian
wreaths.
A swanlike form invests the hidden thorn,
Fills UP the farmers lane from wall to
wall
Mauger the farmers sighs. and at the
gate
A tapering turret overtops the work.
And when his hours are numbered and
the world
Is all his own. retiring, as he were not.
Leaves when the sun appears astonished
Art
To mimic in slow structures, stone by
stone,
Built in an age. the mad winds night
work,
The frolic architecture Of the snow.
