FOR YOUR HAIR.
Here Are Facts We Want You tc
Prove at Our Risk

When the roots of the hair are en-
tirely dead and the pores of the scalp
are glazed over, we do not believe
that anything can restore hair growth.
But, when the hair roots retain any
life, We believe there is nothing that
will so surely promote hair growth as
will Rexall "93" Hair Tonic. To prove
that statement, We promise to prompt.
ly return all the money you pay us
for Rexall 1913" Hair Tonic, should
it not please you.
Rexall "93" Hair Tonic DESTROYS the
germs which are usually responsible
for badness. 1t penetrates to the
roots Of the hair, stimulating and, by
promoting circulation, nourishing
them.
Rexall "93" Hair Tonic helps to
relieve scalp irritation. to remove
dandruff, to prevent the hair from
falling out, and to promote an in
creased growth Of hair. 1t comes in
two sizes, prices 80 cents and $1.O0.
Remember, you can obtain 1t only at
our store-The Rexall Store. G. d.

that her visit to the Eckersley family

-Costain Bros, of Huron, have
placed a stock of pianos in Mrs.
Floran's De Smet Music Store.
Memorial services for the Royal
Neighbors will be held at st. Thomas
Catholic church Sunday afternoon,
June 4th, at 2o'clock. Father Lahecka
will preach the sermon
Judge Green and family depart
ed Thursday for points in Iowa
where they will visit relatives and
friends. They made the trip by auto
and expect to be gone a month.
Mrs. Floran has moved her De
Smet Music Store into the Wilmarth
building. 1t gives a much better
opportunity for the display of her
stock and is more centrally located.
Over two hundred carloads of
stone, brick, steel and other material
will be required in the construction of
the court house besides 1000 loads of
sand and gravel. For the city hall
about fifty carloads of material will
be used; the government building will
require about one hundred and eighty
carloads and the new administration
building at the college about two
hundred. The addition to the dairy
building at the college and the new
residences and other improvements
about town will use probably two
hundred more, SO that nearly nine
hundred carloads of material will be
shipped into Brookings during the
next year. This is an enormous total
and marks one of the biggest build
ing epochs in the history of Brook
ings.-Brookings Register.
De Smet's celebration committee
for Old Settlers Day should be con-
graduated upon its in secur
ing a league game of base ball for
that day. The teams to play here on
that day are from Huron and Mitchell.
The game is one of the regular series
scheduled by the league, and was
originally scheduled for Huron. It
cost the committee a nice sun of
money to induce the league to transfer
the game to De Smet. This game is
one of the regular games of the series
and the on that day helps to
make up the seasons record and
counts the same in their chances for
the state championship and winning
of the pennant as if it We're played IN
the city for which it was originally
scheduled. There are several adj
vantages to De Smet in this arrange
ment. 1t prevents any possibility OF
a shortage of players OF either side,
and it insures a game that will be a
"game to the finish" For that day
De Smet is in the state league and
has a game by two of the best
teams in the league. Those who like
a f~rst-class game Of base ball will see
it that day in De- Smet. At no other
time this year will our people have an
opportunity to witness such a game
outside Of the larger cities of the
stale, and at no time will such a game
be pulled off in any town nearer than
| Huron, which is one of the league
cities.

Henry Schrader went to Airing,
ton on Monday morning and came
home with the fine new Buick auto
mobile which he ordered some weeks
ago. 1t is a fine one AID we do not
know of a family that deserves and
can afford the pleasure any more.
Our farmers are certainly getting
acquainted with the advantages as
well as the. pleasure of autos and no
| other class can better afford them
Times.
The latest graft to b. sprung on
the farmer is the uire fence deal,
which is simply the old lightning rod
scheme worked over The smooth
stranger comes along and offers to
put in a new wire fence for the farmer
and charge him eight cents a foot for
it. The farmer signs the contract and
in a few days another man come S
along and puts in a fence. The farmer
then finds out that he has signed a
contract to pay eight cents a foot for
each wire. A charge of rock salt
applied to that part of the grafter's
anatomy where it will do the most
good, through the agency of the
family shot gun, is the best known
remedy for a case of this kind.
Hold Perry returned Thursday
from his trip to Virginia. Hod had a
good time and likes the country all
right to live in, but says il is N place
for a poor man. On most of the old
farms seed and fertilizer cost at least
FIVE dollars per acre besides the labor
of putting it in. The idea that stock
can run out there the year around is
erroneous, says Hod. Stock must be
kept off the pastures during the
winter for the reason that at thai
season there is so much moisture and
the ground is so soft that stock will
tramp the grass into the ground and
destroy the roots. That country is all
right for the man with money, and all
right for the nan who will be con
> tented with inst a hare living.

spirit World Says Cook Got
Nearer North Pole Than peary Did

Washington, Jan. 1S-"With regard
10 the pole controversy the only mes
sage which We have received on the
subject was one from Sir John Frank
lin last year. He did not say anything
about Peary, but said he had person
ally conducted Cook nearly 20 the pole
and then left him 70 complete the
journey himself"
So writes William T. Stead OF the
London Review OF Reviews to Arthur
Robinson Colburn. an attorney of this
city. Mr.. Stead's letter was transmit
ted by Mr.. Colburn 10 Representative
Ernest ". Roberts OF Massachusetts,
member OF the house committee On
naval affairs. who led the opposition
in the committee 10 according Peary
rank ard emoiuments.
1T is most noteworthy" adds Mr..
Coi5urn. that the testimony OF the
spirit wcTld IL unanimous that neither
explorer reached the pole, but that
Cook got nearer than Peary.
Rock Island Argus., 1911-01-18

This testimony have received and
friends of mine. likewise, from proba-
bly, so gifted pgychics, ranging from
those who simply have powers TO re-
ceive correct mental impressions to
those who have the wonderments OF
the independent voice. materializations,
etc.
And, too, these psychics represent
all phases of interest in the polar con-
troversy, from those deeply interested
70 those who think the whole matter a
piece Of folly. inconsequential and
valueless.
Il hold the strangest feature about
the Communication from Mr.. Stead is
the statement that when nearer the
pole the spirit of Sir John Franklin
left Cook 10 finish the journey alone"
Mr Colburn adds that Dr.. Cook is a
great psychic. but does rot know IL.
'DT.. Cook" he says, is capable of
great mental inspirations"

Edison's Poured" Houses.

Mr.. Edison announces that he has
perfected his plan for mOlding a con-
crete house complete, all in one solid
piece, including the cellar. partitions.
floors, roof. yeranda; in fact. every
thing except the windows and doors.
which are of wood and the only parts
OF the house which are combustibIe' -
Cement men say that the practical diff
ficulti5s are insuperable. but MI Edi-
son has a way Of overcoming insup-
cradle difficulties by finding a way
around" them. The typical house
would contain six rooms and bath
and would only cost $1,000. and would
give a man for $40 a month a better
home than he now rents for SIS. The
advantages would be exemption from
fire risk and sanitary qualities, since
should a case of contagious or infec-
tious disease take place. the walls
would afford no harbor for germs and
could readily be disinfected. The dis
advantages are that the house, which
can be completed in four days, must
be built in large numbers and on ad-
sacsnt areas. since the castircn molds
are very heavy and must be handled
by & derrick The moving OF the
molds ard derrick TO any enc locality
would be e mater of considerable ex-
pense. which, II divided among fifteen
or twenty houses. would amount 70
little Besides after taking down the
molds Al interval CO four days must
elapse before the walls set, during
