+ Flags

We have been selling flags for over
thirty years and think we know a
thing or two about them.
We know that many of the flags on
the market are not made to wear OF
keep their color but only look good
until they are sold.
We know that we have found a
firm that makes flags that will prove
satisfactory. When they say wool
flag ii is all wool. When they claim
fast colors," they will not run to.
gether II left out in the rain.
We have been buying from that
firm for years. We sell their flags
as low as the inferior kinds are sold
for.
We have a great many kinds and
sizes, at many prices; enough to suit
every taste and pocket book.
Buy a flag for the home and one
for each of the youngsters.
Show your colors on Memorial day
and on every possible occasion, let
the Star Spangled Banner express
our patriotism.

COLONEL TO SOUTH DAKOTA

Sioux Falls, S. D., May 31.-The
Sioux Falls Press prints a telegram
today from Col, Roosevelt advising
that he cannot come to South Dako
ia before the state primaries on June
4, on account of his Memorial day
speech at Gettysburg, Penn, but
makes an appeal to the people which
in part is as follows:
There has never in our history
been cleaner lineup than this be
tween the plain people and the boss
es. We are fighting for the funda
mental principles of American either
ship. ! only went into the fight when
it became evident that unless | did
so there was not the slightest chance
to nominate any Progressive candid
ate at Chicago.
Events have made 1t certain that
at Chicago either | will be nominated
or else that a reactionary will be nom
mated. Any Progressive who casts
vote for any other candidate is
merely giving aid and comfort to the
reactionary. Any such vote is equiv
alent to half a vote for Mr.. Taft.
Every boss in the country is
against us. But the great majority
of the rank and file of the people are
with us. for this is their fight.
I've are fighting for their right to
rule themselves. The combination OF
crooked politics and crooked business
which we are fighting is best typified
in Mr.. Lorimer.
1--WE believe the Government
should control in thorough-going
fashion, not only the interstate rail
roads, but all big interstate bust
ness. We believe in the conservation
policy and in extending the irriga.
ton work as rapidly as feasible.
I'VE are against any effort by re-
ciproity or in any other fashion to
put the burden of tariff reduction ex-
clusively upon the farmer. The far
mers and the wage workers are the
two men whom we especially desire
to see benefited by the protective
tariff. II must be a tariff to protect
the little men, not to favor unduly
the big men,"

UNIQUE CARD INDEX
II Helped President Cleveland to Keep
Tabs on Office Seekers

Among many interesting anecdotes
of "Cleveland's first election" related
by William Gorham Rice, assistant
private secretary to Cleveland as
governor of New York, in the June
Century is the following
"When Mr.. Cleveland began to
consider his cabinet and the other
more important appointments, special
letters came to him in great numbers.
One group of these was most curious.
The writer of them was a newspaper
man of high reputation and Of wide
acquaintance with Washington life.
He called on Mr. Cleveland at AL
bany, and when he left stated he
would send from time to time infor-
nation about public men. unsigned,
but in his own handwriting. There
upon there began to- come a daily en-
velope containing unsigned cards of
convenient form for filing. These
cards treated of nearly everybody
proposed for the cabinet of disting-
uished visitors announced in the pub
lie press as on their way to Albany,
and of well known men generally who
might be commended for Office for
others. There was a separate card
for every person, and his good points
were written in red ink while discred-
table facts and undesirable charac-
teristics appeared in black.
"Thus each card embodied con-
else record of the deeds and a keen
estimate of the character and influ-
ence of the man named therein. Civ
ing as they did an incisive, impartial
and, believe, upon the whole an
accurate analysis of those about
whom they were written, they present
ed comment of unusual wit and
wisdom upon American national poll
tics. The point of view was that of
an experienced and able observer of
current events, and the whole record
made kind of Judgment Day book
of men of both parties conspicuous
in national affairs-in civil life and
in the army and navy.
ut can readily be imagined that
not a few visitors who came TO see
Mr.. Cleveland were surprised at the
knowledge of the political affiliations
of prominent men which was shown
by the unsophisticated president
elect"

If you'll take the trouble to keep

Why Savings Banks are Essential

Because people having money to in
vest are often tempted by designing
persons to go into schemes which
while promising large returns. usually
bring disaster.
Probably there are no more shrewC
far-sighted, conservative investors Of
money than successful life insurance
companies.
They employ expert men-men who
make the study of investments theil
life work; who pass upon all applica
tons for loans and investments; and
II is a fact which anyone can verify
by getting the insurance companies
reports. that four to FIVE per cent
interest is all these companies are
able TO make their loans average.
Those schemers who would 20 tc
unsophistlcated women or inexper
fenced men and tell them that they
could just as well get six per- cent
as four, well know that II their
schemes were solid, substantial and
safe, they could borrow money by
the million from these life insurance
companies.
The Lamoille County Savings bank
and Trust company OF Hyde Park
never takes a note paying over six
per cent.
IL any person brings paper to that
bank which will pay more than six
per cent, II turns II down, because
II wants no better evidence that II is
dangerous than the fact that II offers
to pay more than six per cent.
What Is the result?
In Its more than twenty.three years
OF existence this bank has never lost
n dollar by poor note.
Safety rather than high rates OF In,

this, depositors, not only from Yer.

AND FALLING HAIR

To allay itching and irritation Of the
scalp, prevent dry, thin and falling
hair, remove crusts, scales and dam

beauty of, the hair, the following spe-
cial treatment Is most effective, agree
able and economical. On retiring,
comb the hair out straight all around,
then begin at the side and make a
parting, gently rubbing Cuticura oint-
ment into the parting with bit Of
soft flannel held over the end Of the
finger. Anoint additional partings
about half an inch apart until the
whole scalp has been treated, the pur-
pose being to get the Cuticura Oint-
ment On the scalp skin rather than on
the hair. 1t is well to place light
covering over the hair to protect the
pillow from possible stain. The next
morning, shampoo with CuticuTa Soap
and hot water Shampoos alone may
be used az often as agreeable, but
once or twice a month is generally
sufficient for this special treatment

WOMEN SHOULD NEVER
USE HARSH PHYSICS

Women are especially susceptible to
constipation and their more delicate
organisms rebel at the violence OF
cathartics and purgatives. Drastic
medicines like salts, mineral waters,
pills and powders may afford tempo
rary relief, but their violent action on
the stomach and bowels tends to up
set the entire system.
A mild laxative is far preferable and
more effective. The combination Of
simple laxative herbs with pepsin pre-
scribed by DR.. w. B. Caldwell, and
sold in drug stores under the name Of
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. is ideal
for women. being gentle in action, pos
tive in effect and pleasant to the
taste. A spoonful OF Syrup Pepsin at
night will bring natural relief next
morning and, used regularly for a
brief period, will SO strengthen and
tone the muscles of the stomach and
bowels that there will be little, II any,
further need for medicine.
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin can be
procured in any drug store. Your
