due to the attention given to homes,
lawns, and flower gardens. Many
houses are taking on a new appear
anCe through the work of decorators
and painters, lawns have been prepared,
and the flower seeds distributed
through the public schools have been
in demand with all this. there has
been in evidence a desire on the part of
residents to join in the cleanlng-up cru

Much of the interest in lawns and
flowers is due to the efforts of the Ana
costa Citizens Association and the
Peoples Gardens Association. Under the
campaign of the former some time ago,
when monetary prizes were awarded for
the best kept lawns and yards. there
was a stimulus to attractive surround
ings of this sort, which was increased
by the lecturers of the Peoples Gar
dens Association. There Is now a plan
under discussion to request the citizens
association to renew its offer of prizes

OFFER THEIR SERVICESFREE OF CHARGE

The Urited Doctors, licensed by
the state of SOuth Dakota for the
treatment of defOrmities and al
nervous and chronic diseases of all
men, women and children, offer tC
all who call on this trip, consuita-
ton, examination. advice free
making no charge whatever, except
tie accuil cost of medicine. AL
that is asked in return for these
valuable services is that every
person treated will state the result
obtained to their friends and thus
prove to the sick and afflicted in
every city and locality, that at
last treatments have been discOv
cred that are reasonably sure and
certain in their effect.
These doctors are considered by
many former patients among
Americas leading stomach and
nerve specialists and are experts in
the treatment of chronic diseases,
and so great and wonderful have
been their results that in many
cases it is hard indeed to find the
dividing line between skill and
miracle.
Diseases of the stomach. intes-
tines, liver blood, skin, nerves,
heart, spleen. kidneys, or bladd r,
rheumatism, sciatica, diabetes,
bed wetting, leg ulcers, weak lungs
and those afflicted with long stand
ing, deep seated, chronic diseases,
that have baffled the skill of the
family physician, should not fail
to call.
According to their system no
more operations for appendicitis,
gall stones, tumors, goiter or cer-
tain forms Of cancer. They were
among the first in America to earn
the name of the "Bloodless Sur
geons," by doing away with knife
and blood and all pain in the
successful treatment of these
dangerous diseases.

SINGLE TAX IN MISSOURI.

Missouri on election day put an

Amen lnent to the State ConStltu-

vote fell far short of the eXpecta-

People in an old established
State like Missouri a,e not ready
to take the chances on such radical
le islation. 1t takes new and
progressive community like Al
btrta and British Columbia to try
ex periments. There the single tax
is now being tried out. Such ex.
perimentation will also be strongly
demanded in rival community
such az the state Of Washington
whose industries are affected by
the legislation of neighboring

From the experiments now being
made we shall learn something
