KNIGHTS IN FEATHERS.

India is peculiarly rich in birds
Of character. 1t is the happy hunt
ing ground of that unique fowl, Cor
vus splendens-the splendid crow
splendid in sagacity, resources and
adaptiveness, boldness, cunning and
depravity-a veritable Machiavelli
among birds. might almost say
a supcr-bird. The king crow (Di-
crurus ater) is another creature
which can be described only by SUI
perlatives. He is the Black Prince
of the bird kingdom-the embodi-
ment of pluck. The thing in feath-
ers of which he is afraid has yet to
be evolved. Like the medieval
knight, he goes about seeking those
upon whom, he can perform some
small feat of arms. In certain parts
of India he is known as the kctwal
the official who to many stands
forth as the embodiment of the
mighty majesty Of the British raj -

That a bill to open for settlement
the surplus and unallotted lands Of
the Lower Brule Indian reserva-
ton has been introduced by Senat-
or Gamble. Three hundred thous-
and acres are comprised, Of which
10000 acres have already been
allotted. The bill authorizes the
payment Of $4,000 by the govern
ment to the Indians for state school
lands. Senator Gamble has also
received information from the in
terror department which indicates
that the lands of the Rosebud In
dian reservation in Melette county
South Dakota, opened by bill
passed last year, will not be ready
for opening until Oct. 1, or there
abouts. The appraisement has not
yet been completed.
That shortly before the death of
one Hudson Burton, of Buchanan,
Mich, five years ago, he talked in
to monograph and had the re-
cord preserved in the safe of his
lawyer. When Burton died the
statement appeared in his will that
he had buried large sum of gold
and that its exact location was told
about on a photograph record
which was not to be read until af-
ter he had been five years dead.
The time was up last week and the
heirs gathered at the home OF the
son to hear what the monograph
had to say. They were all seated
in the parlor when tine arrival Of
the lawyer with the record was an
nounced. He unwrapped the pre-
cious article in the kitchen, but
just as he stepped through the door
into the parlor he tripped over a
footstool, fell, and broke the re
cord into SO many pieces as to rem
der it useless. There the curtain
falls.

Marion Harland and Dame
CurtSey.

For more than half century
Marion Harland has been writing
on housewifely themes and answer
ing the questions Of women in
clear and kindly way that has made
her name beloved from one end of
the land to the other. Many who
read her helpful and CHEEKY page
every week in the Sunday Chicago
Record-Herald have no idea that
she is Is years old, for she still,
writes with all the vigor and dis
cernnlent of woman OF half her
years. Huge as the task may
seem, she gives her personal at
tention to the vast correspondence
that her position OF expert adviser
on household topics involves. and
every question is answered directly
by her. No other department of
the Sunday Record-Herald is more
popular than hers.
Another department that pushes
it closely, however, is Dame Curt
sey's Novelties in Entertainment"
which has been hailed with joy by
thousands of ho5tesses who feel the
need of new ideas. Dame Curtsey
whose real name is Ellye Howell
Glover, seems to have genius for
inventing fresh schemes for deco
ratiOns, menus, games and all the
details that lend zest to dinners
and entertainments. She also ans
wers questions pertaining to Ell
quette and good taste. and other
wise furnishes just the information
so often sought by women.
When it is added that the Sun
day Magazine OF the Record Her
aid is full of good stories and ar
ticles as interesting to women as
to men, it is easy to see why that
paper is the iavOritc among wO-
men.

State of South Dakota---Ex.
ecutive Chambers.
A PROCLAMATION.


Whereas, provision was made by
the eleventh legislative assembly of
the state of South Dakota for the
creation and establishment of a san
itarium and farm at Custer City. in
the county of Custer, state of Suuth
Dakota, for the treatment of per-
sons living within the state and af
licted with the disease known as
tuberculosis, and
Whereas, the state board of char
tiles and corrections was by said
legislative assembly authorized and
empowered to acquire tract of
land, upon which to erect suitable
buildings for said sanitarium, to
provide for proper equipment and
to appoint superintendent Of the
said institution, and
Whereas, it has been brought to
my attention by the board of char
tiles and corrections that the said
land has been secured: that the said
buildings have been completed and
are now we'll equipped; that a ST.
perintendent has been appointed,
and that the treatment of patients
can now be accomplished at the in
stitution in an able and satisfactory
manner.
Now, Therefore, in accordance
with the provisions of section 2 of
chapter 6S of the session laws of
1900 of the state of South Dakota,
l, r. S. Vessey, governor of the
state of South Dakota, do hereby
issue this proclamation giving pub
lie notice that the said hospital for
the treatment of those afflicted with
tuberculosis is prepared to receive
patients on and after this 18TH day
of April, A. D. 1911.
Certainly there is no duty of
more importance or of greater in
terest than the conservation of the
public health, and inasmuch as the
White Plague is the most destruc-
tive agent operating against human
life, everything in Our power should
be done to enlarge the scope and
increase the value OF the campaign
which has been organized to oppose
and withstand the ravages of the
terrible disease.
Done at the capitol in Pierre,
South Dakota, this 18TH day OF
April, A. D. 1911.

propriating $50, 1000 for the Battle
Mountain Sanatorium in South

introduced by the house appropri-
ations committee. The law be-
came a part of the legislation of

in conference. Notwithstanding
it was enrolled as though passed
and became, through this error, a
law.
