DR.. COutant, an able specialist, has

disagreeabie noises in the head. 1t ap-

To proper treatment.
DR.. Coutsnt does not advocate the
use Of drugs n electricity. He relies
chiefly upon cooperating with Nature

markable cures are reported, many Of
them being In the cases Of deafness

his loss above insurance as being in
the neighborhood of $4,000.

first sent to the state legislature. At

ultimate defeat. He has been allied

generally understood that the cold

well known fact that during the past
year Marmarth has been one of the

North Dakota in so far as bootleg

edict that the lid must be elamped

HER BAKER

ST. PAUL, Feb. 14.-Justice of the

Cupid yesterday converted garn.
ishee suit into prospective marriage
Some time ago A. KRISTEN came to
St. Paul from Burleigh, N. D., got a
job as baker with the St Paul Bread
company, and began boarding witt
Mrs. Margaret Schmitt, a widow. Kir.
stein proved such a nice baker that he
won the heart Of his landlady, with
the result that October IA last Kir.
stein took out q marriage license,
naming Mrs. Schmitt as his bride.
Unfortunately they quarreled be.
fore they reached the parson, the mar
rage was called of, and KRISTEN went
to board elsewhere. Mrs. Schmitt
stood pat until she learned that Kir-
stein was becoming enamored Of an.
other woman. Then she decided that
if she could not have him for a hus-
band she at least would have what
was coming to her Tor having boarded
Mrs. Schmitt began suit against
KRISTEN for a so board bill and gar.
nished his wages. It looked like the
vengeance Of a woman scorned, but
when the former lovers came under
the influence of Cupid" Johnson the
quarrel was patched up. Mrs Schmitt
agreed to dismiss her suit for board
money and KRISTEN agreed that his
marriage to Mrs. Schmitt will be cele-
brated May I.
They will use the marriage license
KRISTEN secured before the quarrel.
