Lands Good Position.

R. A. Middaugh will be general dis
trict manager of the Patterson Land
Company of St. Paul, with headquar-
ters at Napoleon, this state. Dick ar
rived home from St. Paul Sunday MORN
ing, where he had been to see the COM
pany. This land company is one of the
best known real estate firms of the
Northwest. 1t handles sales and rentals
for other land firms, and have control,
or supervision, over about 45O, 900 acres
in North Dakota. Dick will have
charge of the sales andrentals' depart
ment for North Dakota, and his busl-
ness will keep him on the road most
of the time. He is a hustler in the
real estate business and Napoleon will
be on the map all the time he makes
that his home. Tuesday morning he
left for Napoleon to make arrange
ments for moving his family there.
Mr.. Middaugh took in the insurgent
Woodmen convention while in Mime
apolis. He was sent the credentials of
the local lodge and was entitled to a
seatin the convention. Woodmen were
there from all over the Northwest to
protest against the big increase in
assessments. The rates have just
doubled, and the insurgents have
organized to protest against the report
of the committee on laws that recently
met in Chicago. 1t is said the increase
comes about through the activity of old
line insurance companies, which are
bent on making the fraternal insurance
as high as the rates paid by the old line
companies. The idea is to GUST the
officers of the head camp, who have
fallen into the net of the old line COM
panies.

Many catharties Tend to Cause Injury
to the Bowels.
If you are subject to constipation,
you should avoid strong drugs and
cathartics. They only give temporary
relief and their reaction is harmful and
sometimes more annoying than consh-
patton. They in no way effect a cure
and their tendency is to weaken the
already weak organs with which they
come in contact.
We honestly believe that we have
the best constipation treatment ever
devised. Our faith in it is so strong
that we sell it on the positive guaran-
tee that it shall not cost the user a
cent If It does not give entire satisfac.
tion and completely remedy constipa-
lion. This preparation is called Rexall
Orderlies. These are prompt, soothing.
and most effective in action. They are
made of recent chemical discovery.
Their principal ingredient is odorless.

Consequences of a Shipwreck of Long Ago.

How Thatcher's Island came by its
name is an interesting story. Some 269
years ago the Rev. Anthony Thatcher
and his family and several other passen-
gers set sail on day in August from
Ipswich for Marblehead, Mass. The
luckless vessel was overtaken by furi-
GUS storm and driven on the rocks of this
island, where she soon went to pieces.
All were lost save Mr.. and Mrs. Thatch-
er, and among the drowned were the
Rev. John Avery, his wife and six chill
dren. The name of this unfortunate
family is commemorated by Averys
Rock, hidden reef near the island and
stunned by mariners. Fortunately some
provisions from the wreck were washed
ashore and the two survivors were thus
saved from starvation before they were
taken off by a fishing vessel and carried
to Marblehead. More than a century
later the twin lighthouses that now warn
the mariner from this island We're built
and took their name from the island,
which had been called for the two sur
vivors of the long ago wreck. The first
CLEAN of light sent out across the Allan
tic from these lights was on December
Fl, III.

WOOD HOLDING IT'S OWN.

The substitution of other material for
wood in structural and even in factory
and cabinet work has progressed so far
with practically no concerted effort
either to study or to advertise the desir-
able qualities of wood. Now, however,
the country seems to be waking up and
beginning to investigate this subject
There are really more desirable quail
ties about wood than undesirable ones
There is a striking instance in the case
of the railway tie, illustrating a certain
property of wood that escaped attention
until time told the tale Steel, concrete
and various other substitutes were offer
ed and put into use, being heralded as
the great thing of the future But it
was found that these things were lack
ing in certain cushioning qualities pos
sessed by wood, consequently they were
not as good in actual service as the
wooden tie.
There have been number of expert
ences in connection with metal spokes
and tubular parts of wagons and We
hlcles made of metal instead of wood
The claim of greater strength and wear
ing qualities was accepted without Ques-
ton, because people are impressed with
the idea that steel and other metal has
wood backed clear off the platform when
1t comes to these qualities. Yet actual
service has taught manufacturers few
things. 1t has taught them for one thing
that metal will not stand shocks as wood
will, and when once kinked or battered
its strength is seriously impaired and
cannot be restored.
When it comes to cabinet work and in
terror finish, there are so many desirable
qualities about wood that there is no
danger of any other material replacing
it'in anything like general way, so long
as there is wood enough to supply the
needs. Indeed, it is a safe prediction
that 100 years from now there will be
more wood used, comparatively, for in
terror trimming and cabinet work than
there is today.
For one thing, there is no comparison
in the beauty between the natural color,
tone and finish of wood and the cold
limitations of it in metal and concrete. =

BORDER STATE BALLADS.
A MAINE HOMESTEAD,
(Sweet Fennel.)

\o"CCI FCuuSiJ
1t grew in grand old garden,
Long years and years ago,
Where the bright, old fashioned posies,
The dawn-red climbing roses
In Summer used to grow.
Twas dear Grandmother's garden,
And she loved it passing well;-
Oh, gladstone were the hours
Spent with her mid the flowers
While Summer wove its spell.
Fond Grandmother! What pansies
Were hers! see her yet,
Her knitting-work within her lap
On apron white, and quaint old cap
Upon the gray locks set.
Grown older now and severed
From that loved spot of yore,
My mind oft loves to wander back
Over life's varied, irksome track
To childhood's happy shore.
And often, when the woes Of earth
Have overwhelmed my soul,
And life seems void and hard to bear,
am refreshed by wandering there,
In Fancy's sweet control.
But ali! the fair kind face 1 loved,
The voice SO soft and low
Which uttered Wisdom's words to me
In that far time, have crossed deaths Sc,
A happier home to know;
And stranger faces now are seen
About the dear old place;
And other hands the garden till,
But rare sweet fennel blossoms still
Shed odor there, and grace.

APPLEDORE.

Bright glow the flowers in Appledore,
The waves are glancing free,
But mute she lies with folded hands,
The Singer of the Sea.
Far inland. through her magic verse,
We heard the curlews cry,
And watched, (the green hills all around)
The fishing boats 60 by.
Now on the breakers, white with foam,
The fierce storm seemed to ride;
And now, upon the shining sands,
Crept murmuring the tide.
Not lost! the Singer and her song
Shall live forevermOre;
Her memory speaks in every wave
That breaks on Appledore.
