Chewing gum in public detracts
from the beauty and brightness of a

camels chew their cuds habitually,
but the Bennington girls will do well

1t will be welcome news that the
death of an aged inmate of the sold
diers home in Bennington during
fistic encounter with another in
mate was not due to injuries receiv-
ed in the brawl; but the exonera-
ton OF his fellow-fighter does not
remove the disgrace of an unseem-
ing physical clash between two mem
bers of an institution, where such
things ought not to have place
Barre Times.
1t is little difficult to comprehend
where the Times has secured the
idea that the Vermont soldiers home
has been disgraced by the incident re-
ferred to. Two old veterans, both
with nervous systems shattered by
hardship and exposure engaged in a
quarrel. The extra exertion of the
wrangle proved too much for the
weakened heart of one of the partici.
pants and he died. And that is the
most that can be made out of it.

Marrow ESCAPE
UNDER engine

HANKINSON, N. D., Sept. 49,
Mrs. H. C. Parslow, wife of the 500
agent, had an almost miraculous
escape from death. A 500 locomotive
and tender passed over her uncon.
scious body and she sustained com
paratively slight injuries.
The accident happened about 8
o'clock in the evening. The local
train from Glenwood stood on the
main track across the street. Mrs.
Parslow and daughter, Frances, walk.
ed around the train, crossing the main
track just north of the automobile
garage. The freights train from the
Bismarck line had arrived in the yards
few minutes before and the locomo-
tive was on the sidetrack bound for
the roundhouse. After crossing the
main track, Mrs. Parslow failed to
notice the engine on the other track,
which was backing up a rapid rate
without rear lights. AS she stepped
in the middle of the sidetrack the
tender struck her. knocking her down.
She fell face downward between the
rails but close to the south rail, the
tender and engine passing over her
PROSTATE body.
For a time it was feared she might
have sustained internal injuries, but
she seems to have escaDed with moth
ing more serious than temporary
bruises. She is still confined to the
house but her completa recovery is
matter of only few days.

SUSPECT fraud
in BANKRUPTCY

VELVA, N. D., Sept 1S.-John
Brockel, farmer residing near Velva
and who recently filed a petition in
voluntary bankruptcy was given a
hearing before Referee Lewis in Minot
on Friday morning. Brockeps report
of his assets indicates that he hasn't
property enough to c!aim any exemp-
tons. He placed his liabilities at
approximately $1,000 and Senator
Thomas Welo of Velva is named as
the heaviest creditor.
The examination developed that in
last September or October he decided
a farm to his wife. No consideration
is indicated and plaintiffs allege that
the transfer was made with an EVIL
dent purpose to defraud the creditors.
Action will be Started in the federal
courts to secure a setting aside of
the transfer unless it develops that
the land transferred to Mrs. Brockel
was their homestead at the time of
the transfer or of the petition in
bankruptcy on August %. The farm
is valued at $4,000 and the creditors
could easily be taken care of If the
bankrupt wished to make a settle
ment. Mr.. Swanson of Velva was
appointed trustee

CORN EXHIBIT
DELEGATES From the Various
Part. Of County Decide
on Plans

Monango Journal: The meeting
called for the purpose of making the
final arrangements for the,'Bismarck
exhibit was fairly well attended and
the delegates from the various parts
of the county were strong in the be-
lief that the material would be forth
coming for splendid exhibition.
John Wirch thinks his locality will
make a strong showing with grains
and grasses as we'll as corn. Cakes
is looked to for grain, while fancy
work from the ladies will come from
all parts of the county. The public
should take an active interest in this
matter now and assist in making the
Dickey county exhibit the prize win
ner. 1t would surprise some who are
knocking now to know that there will
be line of grain shown as good as
has ever been produced in the coun.
ty. Vegetables and canned goods
will be as good ana even better than
ever. so let us get to boosting. w. c.
Caldwell or E. Magoffin will receive
the exhibits here; Geo. Web at Merri-
court; E. S. Thomas at Fullerton, T.
J. Werner at Wirch, F. w. Brown
at Monango, c. A. Melander at Cakes,
F. D. Mccartney Of Forbes, are the
gentlemen VINO will meet here on the
2lst and arrange samples for ship
ment to Bismarck. All samples must
be at Monango not later than Sept.
10. So in order that there may be
no delay place the county exhibits in
the hands of the committeeman near
est to you as early as you can. The
Monango Juvenile band will leave
here Monday the 25th, and will play
all week at Bismarck. This will be
the real week as there will be a
parade that week, consisting of all
kinds of vehicles ever used in this
country from the two-wheeled OK cart
to the present up to date 60 car. Ar
engagements are already made for
printing several thousand post cards
showing the band in working order,
also the N. l. buildings and the court
house and probably the -four mill at
Cakes. The card is to be a folder
that can be mailed and there will be
a brief description of the county
which will be brief and to the point.
The boys will carry these and will
give them away without charge dur
ing the time they are in Bismarck.
1t is hoped that Dickey county will
make this the week of the 25th Dickey
county week and all who can go will
do so at that time. The Journal
wants to call the attention of the
farmers to We understood fact, that
whenever we convince an eastern man
that this is, what It u.s. corn coun-
try, he is converted and ready to
invest here, Notwithstanding the fact
that the time Is past when wheat only
can be raised at profit So let us
show them the corn.

THE TRUTH ABOUT BLUING.
Talk No. 5.

Avoid liquid bluing. In every city
there is an accumulation of junk bot
ties which are gathered up and filed
with a weak solution called bluing.
Don't buy water for bluing.
Buy RED CROSS BALL BLUE; a
scent package equals 20 cents worth
of liquid blue. Makes clothes winter
than snow. ALL GOOD GROCERS.
