some seasonabIs Hints.

II you can't sleep in the house nights
on account of the oppressive humidity
try an out of doors sleeping apartment.
If you can't afford to have one built
on the back end of your house. buy a
small tent and pitch it in the back
yard. If you leave the flaps On each
end of the tent open the wind will
sweep through and it will have the
same effect as though you had one OF
the fancy screened-in sleeping rooms.
Frequent ice water baths during the
day will relieve you from the heat and
enable you to stand it better. Electric
fans placed at various points about
the homes will also help.
A good place to go to escape the
heat is down in the potato bin. If you
can afford to go out of town hire a
yacht and take a long cruise on the
ocean where the breeze is always
fresh.
Wear sensibele thin clothing. Fish
net underwear serves to keep you cool.
When a person is overcome by the
intense heat on the street. soak his or
her feet in hot water.
Don't eat much meat and keep your
temper and you viii be able to keep
cool, no matter how hot it mas be out
of doors.

LABOR N LIQUOR.

In an evening sermon recently an
eastern pastor discussed the high cost
OF living, and treated many causes not
usually discussed. Among other things
he claimed that the liquor traffic bore
a relation to the scarcity OF labor in
the rural districts. He is quoted as
follows on this point:
Let us see if we can find any leak
age on the farm. In the first place.
the farm hands are going to the city,
and the farmer is unable to get help.
One cause Of the exodus may be traced
to the driving out of whisky from the
rural districts. Just here I might say
that when whisky is driven from the
cities there likely will be a back-to-
the-farm movement.
The argument was presented from
the above statement hat when the
cities are freed from the beer gardens
and other loafinG places made at
tractive for the drinking men, the
towns will no longer be a magnet for
thousands of men who hang about
them in idleness and are a menace to
public safety.
This may be true to some extent,
but North Dakota's experience does
not entirely bear out the conclusion.
Here there is state wide prohibition
the towns are generally free from even
the illegal sale Of liquor-and at the
anne time, no state suffers more from
the inability to secure a supply of
good farm labor.
One reason for this shortage here
is, perhaps, the short season during
which the labor is needed. 1t may be
that when production on the farm be-
comes more diversified, and there is a
demand for farm help for more months
than is nov the case. that a better
class of labor can be had and can be
more easily secured.
The relation of the liquor habit to
the difficulties of the farmer is a
question worthy of most careful
study, and the solving Of the labor
problem would be a boon to all classes,
as it should decrease the cost of liv-
ing.

NEWS kND FICTION.

When the human element entered
into newspaper making, and the great
dailies began to print news which was
of interest to all classes because it told
Of the sorrows and joys common to all
men and women. there was a great
clamor from novelists and story writ
ers, who declared the newspe oers were
really invading their field.
In, other words, the fiction writer's
wanted the newspapers to continue
the printing of dry-as-dust statistics
and prosy accounts of historical
events, without any effort to brighten
their pages with news written in an
entertaining manner and setting forth
the humor and pathos of the lives of
men and women figuring in the pub
lie press.
The cry was raised that newspapers
were yellow. Some of them doubt
less were. But others were merely
interesting, in addition to being re-
liable. AS a matter of fact, the com
plant of writers was stronger against
the latter class than it was against the
highly sensational journals. argues

BE REASONABLE IN ATHLETICS

For some years it has seemed that
educational institutions have gone
erazy over athletics; the contests nave
been given more prominence than the
courses OF Instruction.
Parents have rebelled and the re-
suit is that somewhat of a halt has
been called. and occasionally Judgment
seems to be an element in the control

CLIMATE AND CITIZENSHIP.

North Dakota is fortunate in its
rigorous climate.
There may be those who will take ex-
ception to this and who long for the
dangerous breezes Of the southland
hut nevertheless itgis a fact, that one
Of the greatest blessings which the AL
mighty bestowed upon this great COM
raonwealth, is its winter. "
There is now being laid in this state
the foundation for a citizenship, which,
In the coming generations. will be sec
ond to zone on the continent in intel
ligence, sturdiness and vigor. The
state is getting the very cream of the
immigrants who come to the shores of
Uncle Sans land.
THE independent and hardy Scandi-
navisn-the thrifty German-the best
citizens OF the most progressive coun-
tries in Europe are coming here and
they are coming with the idea Of maxi
ing permanent homes.
These people are right at home in the
climate OF North Dakota. They love
the winter with it's crisp, i~nvigorating
atmosphere, just as much as they love
the summer. 1t is what they are used
to. They would be lost without it.
Then North Dakota is attracting the
best of the citizen. of the o~vercrowded
eastern and central states-Americans
and the best Americans are coming
here TO make homes-and they laugh
at the person who says North Dakota's
winters are a hardship. To the red
blooded descendants of the people from
northern European countries, this is
ideal climate and they would not
change it if they could.
On the other hand the very rigor of
the climate Of this. the ~northland of
the United States, tends to keep the
easy going, shiftless and less desira-
bic class of immigrant and American
from coming here.
In the future North Dakota will send
forth many who will be leaders among
men. Some of the great statesmen,
the great judges. the pre- eminent in
every line Of thought and endeavor Of
the future will spring from the Ioins
Of those who are now being selected

i E lNJuRE CHILDREN.
catharties and Pills and Harsh Physics
May Cause Distressing Complaints.

wy
You cannot be ~over-carefuI in the
selection Of medicine for children.
Only. the very gentlest bowel medicine
should ever be given. Ordinary pills.
cathartics and purgatives are too apt
to do more harm than good. They
sometimes cause gripping, nausea, and
distressing er-effects, and may ac-
tually injure the health, thus estab-
fishing a li~fe-lasting annoyance.
We personally recommend and guar
antee Rexall Orderlies as a safe and
dependable remedy for constipation
and associate bowel disorders. We
have such faith in the virtues of
this remedy that we sell it on our
guarantee Of money back in every in
stance where it fails to give entire
satisfaction, and we urge all in need
of such medicine to try it at our risk.
Rexall Qrderlies are eaten just like
candy, are particularly prompt and
agreeable in action, may be taken at
any time, day or night; do not cause
diarrhoea, nausea gripping, excessive
~looseness or other undesirable effects.
They have a very mild but positive
action upon the organs with which
they come in contact, apparently act
ing as a regulatiye tonic upon the
relaxed muscular a of the bowel
thus overcoming weakness, and aiding
to restore the bowels to more Wig
orous and healthy activity.
Rexall Orderlies not only relieve
constipation, but help to remove the
cause OF this ailment. They also fire.
quently overcome the necessity Of
constantly taking laxatives to keen
the bowels in normal condition.
There is really, in my opinion, no
similar medicine So good as Rexall
OrderIies for the purpose to which ii
is directed, especially for children.
aged and delicate persons. They are
prepared in tablet form and in two
sizes of packages; IL tablets, Toe. S6
tablets. Zoe, and so tablets. soc. Re-
