cause whatever for growing at our

looking good all season, so that if Ii
was possible for anything to happen to

harvest was on and like you folks here
We were very short on laborers."
Everybody in the western part OF
the state expects this to be a bumper
crop year." said Attorney General
Miller to a Forum representative at
the Gardner hotel last night. Mr..
Miller is in the city today and tomor-
row to loo into the legality of a GER
tain question raised by the Standard
J Oil Co, whether or not certain grades
of oil shall be inspected by the state
oil inspector, d. II. Macarthur. The
matter will be brought up in Judge
Pollock's court.
THE western part of the state is
going to give a good crop yield this
year If 1t ever did in its history" con-
tinued the attorney general. THE farm
ers out around Bismarck and through
out the slope country are very much
encouraged over the prospects.
Politics are quiet. I haven't heard
much of anything going On. OF course
most people have been interested to
see just what these third party men
are going to do. At the present time it
wouldn't appear. from all the COM
ments hears expressed in travel
ing that the Roosevelt party is going
to cut much of a sWath in North Da-
kota. OF course one never knows Just
how sentiment will change before fall.
1t seems to be the general impression
that had Roosevelt kept out of the
race against Taft a real progressive
candidate would have been nominated
at Chicago

Amorcordls
BY NATHAN BAKER

see Miss Edna Verne. She handed
him bit of paper on which was writ.
ten a single word, "Amorcordis." and
said:
'Dr. Robinson gave me that paper.
He says that it bears the name of
disease from which am suffering and
that 1t has proved fatal in large
number of cases. He says he is too
busy to give me the attention | require.

physician who Will keep me under
close observation"
Miss Verne was an attractive young
lady. She was the picture of health,
and DR.. Philbrick was puzzled both
as to her not showing any symptoms
Of disease and as to the disease itself,
Of which he had never heard. He was
q recent graduate in his profession and
knew that there was great deal he
had yet to learn, but he did not care
to reveal his ignorance to Miss Verne.
He felt of her wrist, and current,
electrical or otherwise, entered the tips
of his fingers and ran up through his
arm. Miss Verne lowered her eyes.
He asked her If she had headaches, and

thought 1t trife faster than normal.
The doctor carried bread tablets In
his medicine case and before going
away left a few of them with the pa
tent to be taken three times a day at
mealtImes. AS soon as he had gone
Miss Verne dumped the tablets into a
wastebasket, then threw herself on a
DR.. Philbrick.
Now DR.. Philbrick. had he been long
er in the profession, would have taken
some short cut to discover the nature
of amorcordis. AS 1t was, fearful of
betraying that he didn't know as much
as physicians of thirty or forty years
standing, he went through medical
library for the purpose without finding
mention of such an ailment He tried
hard to screw up his courage to 20 to
DIR. Robinson, confess his ignorance
and ask him where he could find a
treatise on it. This he shrank from
doing. Had Miss Verne been closely
related to him he might have succeed
ed, impelled by a fear that she would
die of the disease while he was trying
to find out what 1t was, but she, being
young lady who expected him to
know about oil bodily troubles, 1t
would never do to run any risk of her
finding out his ignorance.
So the only chance Miss Verne had
for a cure was the Doctors bread tab
regularly, intending with each call to
devote the time spent In her company
to finding out what allied her by what
she would tell him Of her symptoms.
But the young lady was prone to chat
upon other subjects. and when the doc
tor attempted thorough questioning
upon what he needed to know she in
variably found some method of evad-
ing him.
Had 1t not been for that bit of paper
on which the great DR.. Robinson,
whose patients lay exclusively among
millionaires, he would have been In
ellned to suspect that amorcordis was
n sham disease. As It was, he believed
implicitly that it was genuine, and aft
er a number of visits to his patient, re-
Inembering that the doctor had told
her that it was sometimes fatal. he
feared it might be so in this case.
All this so absorbed the doctor that
he failed to pay that attention to
friends and associates required for
building up a practice. His mind was
upon one patient to the ex-
clusion of others and on one disease.
Smallpox, measles. typhoid feyer-in- |
deed. all the diseases he had studied |
in the medical college-were as nothing /
to amorcordis. He thought |
Of it all day and all night and never
thought of it without associating with
it Edna Verne.

that while her present trouble was not

tor turned pale. He spoke TO her in a
comforting tone that he did not feel
himself. The thought that she might
die suddenly doomed up before him as
a terror. Telling her that he would
himself bring from the druggists the
remedy he would prescribe, he left her
and, running as fast as he could to DR..
Robinson. asked an audience.
The half hour he was obliged to wait
seemed an age. Then when he was
admitted to the Doctors consulting
room he blurted out:

"Amorcordis? l never heard OF such
