been studying the papers lately. in
regard TO the high cost of living or the
cost of high living) and have worked
out plan for practice of economy.
According to Norman's description of
1T, the plan seems to be a success.
There were some papers to serve at
Nowlin, the other day. so Frank took
the morning train out of Ft. Pierre /;
got off at Nowlin; served the papers
and started for Midland afoot. The
distance being only nine miles, he
arrived in good season for dinner.
Part of the afternoon he spent in our
print shop. That is how we got next
to that economy stunt. They are
allowed seven cent mile when travel
ing by rail and ten cents mile by any
other conveyance. such as by team,
auto, saddle, wheelbarrow or afoot
Now you see, he gained twenty seven
cents by walking here from Nowlin,
instead of waiting there for the train.
1t might have been less exertion for
Frank To have stayed in Nowlin all
day and half the night waiting for that
train for Fort Pierre, but by walking
nine miles he saved tweny-seven cents
for the cost of high living and had
the pleasure of visit with an old
friend.

South Dakota's Militia
Camp Plans

Watertown, S. D., Feb. 15.-Adjt.
Gen. G. II. Englesby, of this city, has
received notice from the war depart
ment at Washington that the state
troops will be sent TO the maneuyer
camp at Sparta, Wis, instead of to
Fort Russell, Wyo., as was previously
announced. The reason given for the
change is that it would cost the gov
ernment about twice as much to send
the troops to Fort Russell as to Sparta.
The maneuvers will be held some
time in July, and will be participated
in by the militia troops of Minnesota,
Iowa. Wisconsin and a part of Illinois
as well as from this state.
The South Dakota militia will con-
centrate at Camp Roosevelt. near this
city, for four or FIVE days target prac-
tice before going to the maneuvers,
and it is probable that an officers
school will be conducted here, also,
preceding the concentration of the
state troops.
Gen. Englesbv, while believing that
the militia will not be called upon to
go to the Mexican border, at the same
time the war departmet has called
upon his Office for considerable infor-
nation in regard to possible call,
and all necessary details have been
worked out covering a possible move
ment to that country. In this con-
nection Gen. Englesby says:
"Should the trouble in Mexico come
to point where the services of the
state troops would be required, they
could be concentrated at Camp Roose-
velt, near Watertown, inside of twen-
ty-tour hours, fully equipped, and
they could be recSuited up to the full
war strength in an additional twenty
four hours. The organization is now
in better condition than it ever was,
as far as being ready for the field is
concerned"

ALCOHOL KILLS "BY INCHES"
There Is No Escape From Scientific
Fact That Moderate Drinking
Is Slow Suicide.

Whenever alcohol is spoken Of as
"A poison" it should be designated
as "a slow poison" No doubt many
a boy has concluded it is not a real
poison because it does not make the
beer drinker or the whisky drinker
fall right down and die But it kills
by inches" 1t takes thirty-one years
for moderate drinking to kill a stout
young man of twenty who is strong
enough to pass an insurance exahlina-
ton. 1t has by that time killed thir.
teen years out of his life He had no
business to die till he was sixty-four.
British mutual companies that classi-
fly abstainers and moderate drinkers
separately and rebate to each what
ever they fall short Of the expected
mortality have for half a century
given more than twenty-six per cent
higher rebates to abstainers than to
moderates. There is no escape from
the scientific fact that moderate
drinking is slow suicide

WHAT SOME PEOPLES EAT

After all, food is purely matter of
taste The Eskimos delight in mice
in tallow Then the Chinese consider
that alligators, mice. and rats form
most excellent foOd5tuffs. A certain
tribe Of Indians in California thrive
upon ants.
On the continent butterflies are
sometimes eaten The Turkish enjoy
goldfish, and in Japan a good deal of
fish is eaten raw
The South American Indians go
hunting for caterpillars, kill them by
crushing their heads, and then pack
them carefully in grass until required
for table use Some of the natives
of Australia live largely upon the
seeds of different species of grass.
They also eat certain roots and bulbs
and the gum obtained from trees.
Another Australian delicacy is the
flesh of snakes, and a favorite dish,
called tuinamba, is composed of pupa
cases.

The statement has been made by

After He Had Told Helen Whole
Truth.
BY S. E. I<ISER.

For three hours Helen Sibley had
been waiting at Northport Junction.
Luckily the evening was pleasant so
that she was not compelled to sit in
the stuffy, dingy little station. There
was just one pretty thing about North
port Junction, and that was Helen. If
the train for which she was waiting
Northport Junction would resume its
habit of being about as unlovely
spot as one might find within the tenn
perate zone.
While Helen remained the place
would possess one attraction that
would have lent distinction to a far
more important and a far more splen-
did center of activity than the juno
ton was ever likely to become
The operator in the bay window that
jutted out into the point of land be-
tween the branching tracks evidently
had an eye for beauty as well as an
ear for Morse. AS Helen walked up
and down the platform he watched her
and became thoughtful He wonder
ed why 1t was that nature bestowed
her gifts so lavishly upon some girls
and treated others so shabbily. The
beauty that Helen possessed might
have made dozen plain girls fair if
it had been distributed among them.
Such was the operators reasoning.
The operator at Northport Junction
was a PHILOSOPHER.
But Helen was not thinking of phil
osophy, and If she had noticed that the
operator was eagerly watching her the
fact neither added to her pleasure
nor caused her annoyance. For some
reason she was thinking Of Tom Har-
low. Perhaps it was because of the
loneliness of her surroundings. 1t
was nearly year since she had re-
fused to listen when Tom had said that
he could explain everything in good
time" and for months she had thought
that she was never going to have any
interest in him again.
Thinking of Tom naturally caused
her to think Of Mrs Danforth, the pref
ty. young grass-widow who had come
between them. There was something
mysterious about Mrs. Danforth. Peo-

MOVING STONE OF TANDlL

One morning every true Argentinian
was shocked by the news of the fall
of La Piedra Movediza de Tandir'-
tho Moving Stcnc OF TaHdh No one
knows how many centuries this huge
rock, which the Argentines proudly
proclaimed as one of the Seven Won
ders Of the World, had stood among
the granite hills Of Tandil, perfectly
poised on its narrow fulcrum less than
eight inches square.
The Tandil qu2rries are situated
about ESQ miles south of Buenos Aires,
and every summer tourists have been
0ccustmed to make the pilgrimage
from the capital to view the national
phenomenon and carve their names on
its ancient sides. Standing in GER
tain position, child could cause thei
great stone to rock up and down fully
four inches. Visitors never tired OF
throwing under it, as it swung up
wards, pieces of glass and small.
stones, which would be crushed to pow
der on the downward sway.
Tradition has it that the tyrant
Rosa, name of i'll omen in Argentine
history, in a savage mood some 80
years ago, tried to dislodge the Nov
ing Stone. using 40 yoke Of oxen to
accomplish his purpose. Whether the
story is true or not. the old sentinel
continued to maintain his watch over
the surrounding fertile plains, appar-
emily undisturbed by either the friend
lines or the hostility of mankind. The
elements likewise were foiled in their
warfare, though once a bolt Of light
ming ripped of piece weighing about
three tons.
What finally caused the downfall Of
the giant bowlder is a mystery. Many
and varied we're the theories adj
vanced by the groups around the cafe
tables, and the fall of the stone be-
came the basis of many heated ar
gument All the papers contained eu-
logies of the fallen monarch, and the

CHICKEN EATS LIVE SNAKE

Grown chickens and young pullets
have been known to eat almost any
thing that crossed their path, when
hungry, but it was supposed that
snakes were not included in their
dainties, until a few days ago when
a pullet at Clay City Ind, topped off
a hearty breakfast by swallowing a
long garter snake while it was alive
The snake appeared in the chicken
yard while the fowls were being fed.
Several chickens pecked the snake
and it started back to the bushes
when the pullet left it's meal of corn
and chased it. The reptile attempted
to fight the pullet but the pullet soon
put stop to the fight by swallowing
the snake.
