Accordingly Fages undertook tho

lanes Lewis Retired

DIR. James Lewis one of the most
popular druggist that ever kept a
drug store in South Dakota has re-
tired from active business. Mr.. Lewis
who has acted as president Of State
Board Examiners for many years and
who was president Of the Druggists
Mutual Fire Insurance, has we'll
earned his rest. For 81 years he has
been in the drug business and as a
faithful worker, he has no equal. His
store has always been modern in
every respect, never dealing in intoxi-
eating liquors only as used for medi-
cal purposes.
Mr.. Lewis sold out to d. f. Dexter
OF Centerville and a young man well
equipped to act in the capacity OF
druggist and pharmacist and it is
with pleasure that the good folks of
Canton welcome him, and we offer
the best in good wishes and good luck.

Warning to Railroad Men.

u kidney and bladder trouble re-
sulting from years of railroading.
Geo. E. Bell, 500 Third St., Fort
Wayne, Ind, was many years a con-
ductor on the Nickel Plate. He says:
Twenty years of railroading left my
kidneys in terrible condition. There
was a continual pain across my back
and hips and my kidneys gave me
much distress, and the action of my
bladder was frequent and most pain
full. Igot a supply of Foley Kidney
Pills and the first bottle made a
wonderful improvement and four bot
ties cured me completely. Since being
cured l have recommended Foley
Kidney Pills to many Of my railroad
friends. Sold by SHERMAN s. ROCHE.

The Poultry yard

This is the month the turkeys be-
gin laying.
There is no better time than now
to set geese eggs. Set them under a
hen, allowing her five eggs, which are
about all she can conveniently cover.
Some folks are forever planning
ahead and figuring how to make
chickens pay, and while they are
pottering along with their plans and
figures the hens and their broods are
neglected.
No fowl is so hard to doctor as a
turkey. A secret of success with tur-
keys lies in avoiding ~inbreeding. A
little turk debiliUated at the start by
inbreeding has a COR chance for it's
life.
The baby chick trade has grown
wonderfully. Twenty years ago poul-
trymen never dreamed of starting a
business in that line, while now hun
dreds of thousands Of these innocents
are annually sent out.
AS the nights are still cold it is ad-
visable to give the hens but eleven
eggs at the time of setting them.
This affords the hen a better chance
to cover and warm the eggs properly,
bringing forth better results.
It's all right to have the brood coops
wind-tight but not alright. 1t does
not take much Of a carpenter to put a
pane of glass in a brood coop, and the
chicks do better if they can have
light when they must be shut up dur
ing cold, stormy weather.
When a spell of bad weather comes,
look out for lice. They multiply fast
when hens and chicks have to be
confined to their coops much of the
time. These pests will soon reduce
the vitality of the liveliest chick ever
Matched, so that it will be in good
condition to take gapes or some other
ailment. From April Farm Journdl.

Out of The Giuger Jar

A freckled person always wears
specks. Did you notice that9
The wind often travels eighty miles
an hour, and that too without a
ticket.
Much of what we call love at first
sight fails when it comes to the Sc
cond, sober view.
Many a man who is calling loudly
for justice would be in the county
Jail if he got It,.
A word to the wise is sufficient, but
a whole volume wouldn't convince
the otherwise.
Some men are like a laying hen,
they set up a big cackling every time
they do anything.
1t may be true that figures do not
lie, but you can not make a fashion
able dressmaker believe 1t.
1t Is claimed that marriage is a
lottery, but it can not be true, else
the law would take hold of it.
Time robs us of many things, but
wounds our vanity first by introduce
ing wrinkles and the dou BILE chin.
Men who own all they have and all
they are to an industrious, economical
wife, too often leave her out when
they boast of their success, as most
successful men are prone to do.
Women may possibly not know
enough to vote, though we don't
admit 1t; but she certainly knows
enough not to sell that vote to the
first briber who may happen along.
There is a wide difference between
having a note In the bank and having
a banknote in the pocket, and therein
lies the difference between complace-
ncy and discomfort.
When a man comes along whining
that he is the victim of circumstance,
the chances are that the circum-
stances were contained within IRON
bound slaves and labeled "Old Rye"
Not infrequently the exalted lodge
member, the whack of whose gavel
brings all the members up standing,
takes off his shoes outside the door
when he goes home, lest he waken
