cational system of South Dakota

the county superintendent of the
state held in Aberdeen. a number of
changes were recommended in the
present laws. There were a large
number of superintendent present
at the Aberdeen conference, and the
others were represented by letters,
So the sentiment of the different Of

and the following changes in the
state educational laws were recon-
mended by the conference and will
be presented to the legislature for
its consideration.
An amendment to remove the limi-
tation on the reelection of superin-
tendents for more thar a second
term.
Senator Norbeck's bill providing
for the payment by the county of the

SUCCESSFUL TREATMENT OF
PIMPLES AND BLACKHEADS

A speedy and economical treatment
for d~isfiguring pimples is the follow
ing: Gently smear the face with Cuti-
cura Ointment, but do not rub. Wash
off the ointment in five minutes with
Cuticura Soap and hot water and
battle freely for some minutes. Re-
peat morning and evening. At other
times use hot water and Cuticura
Soap for bathing the face as often as
agreeable. Cuticura soap and oint-
ment are equally successful for itch
ing, burning, scaly and crusted hui
mors of the skin and scalp, with loss
of hair, from infancy to age, usually
affording instant relief, when all else
fails. Send to Potter Drug & Chem.

FLEEING COUPLE FOUND
Wife of DissoIute Husband Had For
saken Three Children

&C
Mitchell-Frank Burns and Mrs.
Clara Swanson, who eloped from
Plankinton ten days ago, were appre-
hended at Alexandria. They repre-
sented themselves as being husband
and wife, going under the name of
Mead. They stopped for a week at
the best hotel, and when the land
lord insisted on a settlement, Burns
weht to the bank and endeavored to
cash a check, but was turned down.
He tried to raise the money several
other ways but was unsuccessful. He
finally took the woman and they
started to walk out of town. They
walked IL miles to Emery, where the
officers arrested them on advices from
Alexandria, and they were taken back
to that place.
In the examination that followed
before the justice of the peace the
information came out that they were
not married, and that the woman had
left a husband and three children to
go away with Burns. For attempt
ing to beat their board bill the court
IMPOSED a sentence of 80 days. The
woman walked the entire distance and
was thinly clad and had a pair of low
shoes on her feet. She was exhausted
when she was brought back to Alex
andria. The children of the woman
are 1T present at Plankinton with her
brother.

The StanIey-lyman Scrap

Pierre-The regular semi-occasional
scrap" is on between Lyman and
Stanley counties as to the ownership
of a strip of land between the two
counties. The residents have paid
taxes in Stanley county, and the Ly-
man county authorities are selling the
land for unpaid taxes. Several threats
have been made of carrying the matter
to the legislature for adjustment by
the definite fixing of the boundary
lines, but as the counties are both or
ganized it would likely be outside OF
the legislative jurisdiction. and the
courts will no doubt be called upon.
