ONE MILLION DOLLARS FOR A
GOOD STOMACH
This Offer Should &c a Warning to
Every Man and Woman.

Il
Every Man and Woman.
The newspapers and medical jour
nails recently have had much to say
relative to a famous nnillionaire's offer
OF a million dollars for new stonl-
ach.
This great multi millionaire was too
busy to worry about the condition Of
his stomach. He allowed his dyspep-
sia to run from bad to worse until in
the end it became incurable.
His misfortune serves as q warning
to others.
Every one who suffers with dyspep-
sia for few years will give every
thing he owns for a new stomach.
Dyspepsia is commonly caused by
y abnormal state Of gastric juices,
or by lack of tone in the walls of the
stomach. The result is that the stom-
ach loses its power to digest food
We are now able to supply certain
missing elements-to help to restore
to the gastric juices their digestive
power, and to aid in making the stom-
ach strong and well.
We know that Rexall Dyspepsia
Tablets are q most dependable remedy
for disordered stomachs, indigestion,
and dyspepsia.
We want you to try them and will
return your money il you are not
more than satisfied with the result.
Three sizes, 25 cents, so cents. and
500. Remember, you can obtain
Rexall Remedies in this community

TEDDY is WANTED
BY The PEOPLE
FARGO BUSINESS MAN SAYS
TAFT IS TRYING TO BE RENoM.
MATED THROUGH FEDERAL
PATRONAGE ROOSEVELT IS
WANTED nv PEOPLE.

A prominent business man of Fargo
not particularly affiliated with either
party, has stated as his reasons for
being for Theodore Roosevelt that he
feels that he is the only man fitted
for the office at this time. He says
that while he has always been an
ardent supporter OF Senator LaFol-
lette until now, he does not believe
that he can be nominated and, If
nominated, cannot be elected in Mo-
yember, as he is under the impression
that the eastern states believe that
Senator LaFolIette is entirely too rad
ical and they will do all they can to
knife him at the polls.
"On the other hand said he, "I
am Of the opinion that Colonel Roose-
cit has the confidence OF everyone
because he has been tried. His term
IN, the presidency are not so far dis
tant but that the people remember
the kind of an administration he gave
them. They know it was Theodore
Roosevelt who stirred up this move-
ment that has swept the country TOR
cleaner government.
Il feel that it has come to a sad
a
man who is not wanted in the White
House can by his patronage--fc force
himself upon his party as the can
didate for reelection, The people
generally do not want President Taft.
and yet, by the fact that he controls
the southern vote in the convention, he
is enabled to place himself once more
as the standard bearer of his party.
This third term idea never appealed
to me until now when I realize how
the president is using his power OF
patronage a secure tta nomination.
Mr.. Roosevelt has been out of office
for four years and has no machine
upon which to rely for his nornina-
tion, which is self evident fact that
it is coming from the people which
shows that this is a case where the
office is seeking the man and not
tho man the office.
Il was greatly entertained by the
recent address Of Mr.. Bryan in this
city, who csme out so forcefully for
Senator LaFollette, II Senator La
Toilette only knew ii, Mr. BRYAN Is
doing him greater injury than good.
/ think that Bryan's stumping the
northwest in favor Of the Wisconsin
senator is a great mistake, from the
LaFollette point of view, and was
only done so that he might tickle the
palate of his audience and please the
LaFollette supporters who heard him.
Bryan is certainly a great student
of human nature and knows how to
get on the good side of his audience
for the time being but. after people.
have seriously thodght his position
out, they generally arrive at the op-
posite conclusion, and -dr. Bryan's
talk here for LaFollettes will only
serve as a boomerang for the LaFol-
lette movement in the state"

walton of Public Health" The gentle
man has national reputation as one

ings and and learn how to ward off and
prevent disease, one lecture has been
arranged tor two o'clock in the after

will be another meeting in the evening
at eight o'clock at the same place. A

The members of the Commercial
club met in the rooms over the fire hall
on Friday evening. The first business
that came up was the Chautauqua as
proposed by Granville Jones. the club
listened to the proposition as presented
by Mr.. Jones and then upon a motion
duly seconded the chair appointed a
committee consisting of S. E. Bronson
and S. L. Potter to visit the people of
Webster for the sale of GOO tickets at
g. Mr.. Jones made proposition that
a guarantee put up by twenty-five
men that they would take the 600

American Ambassador to Eng.

London, Dec. Whitelaw Reid.
the American ambassador to Great
Britain since 1905, died at his London
residence, Dorchester House, from pull,
monary oedema. The end was quite
peaceful. Mrs. Reid and their daugh,
ter, Mrs. John Hubert Ward, were at
the bedside.
Sir Thomas Barlow, physician to
the king, who was called in last week
when Mr.. Reds illness became acute.
and his regular physician, DR.. William
Hale White, issued the following bulle.
tin as to the cause Of death:
"A fortnight ago the American am
bassador had a slight bronchial at
tack similar to others from which he
had suffered at considerable intervals.
On Wednesday last asthma superyened
and the asthmatic paroxysms became
very severe, leading to extreme ex,
haustion.
1T was hoped that he might rally.
as no pneumonia symptoms had ap-
peared. With difficulty the paroxysms
OF asthma were got under control, but
the exhaustion became extreme and
he died from pulmonary oedema."

Libraries For South Dakota

City conveniencies few years ago
were confined to the city. Country
jewellers now have telephones, rural
delivery and sometimes waterworks.
Why should they not have as good
schools as the city?
A discussion of the subject at the
last educational association brought
forth the fact that more than twice as
much money is being spent for the
education of the town boys and girls
than for those in the country and that
this proposition should be made more
equal. Education must be taken to
the country youth; they must not be
forced to leave home for the city for
higher school education. The proper
place for the country boy or girl of
high school age is in his own home,
therefor, the present arrangement is
manifestly unfair.
A step toward the improvement of
the educational system of the state
was taken at Mitchell, Nov. 5-26-27,
when teachers and librarians got
together to take account of stock. 1t
appears that almost every town of size
sufficient to support library had one,
yet more than half the counties in the
state are absolutely without libraries
and of course the country and small
village population in the remaining
counties have no library privileges.
The rural communities must have good
reading matter if South Dakota is to
keep pace with other states in general
intelligence and progressiveness. In
true democracy every person unjust

zatiOn-Great Success

The most successful convention in the
fourteen years that it has been in exist
ance has just been held by the Retail
Implement Dealers association of South
Dakota, Southwestern Minnesota and
Northwestern Iowa, after sessions that
extended over three days. The follow
ing officers were elected:
President, L. G. Ochsenreiter, Web
ster; vice president, George H. Wasky,
Madison; secretary-treasurer, E. c. Bar
ton, Vermillion. Various standing COM
mittees also were elected.
The resolutions indorse one-cent post
age one first-class matter on the ground
that each branch of the postal depart
ment should be self-sustaining and that
it is unfair thai, by reason of the prof
liable two-cent letter postage, the COM
mercial interests of the country should
have to make good the deficit which
comes through other departments. The
proposed honest advertising law, pre-
pared by Printers Ink, was indorsed,
and the association pledged its support
to any legislation requiring advertisers
to be honest in their statements. The
organization of local clubs of implement
and vehicle dealers was very strongly
Endorsed, and it was recommended that
a special committee be appointed to
take charge of the work, in co-opera-
ton with the secretary of the associa-
ton.
The state association of harness deal
ers, which held its annual convention in
conjunction with the implement and
vehicles dealers, elected the following
officers: President, G. N. Lounsberry,
of Centerville; vice president, A. ].
