After dinner, he was unfortunate In

voice. In answer thereto he heard an
other voice saying: mo. there Is only
one doctor in the institution. Doctor

Morgan reflected. in CONSERVATION,
that the girls companion at breakfast
had doubtless informed her that no

ment bellboy came to inform him
he was wanted to prescribe for a new
patient.
BY the time he was at liberty. It
was the dinner hour. When Miss
Grayson came into the dining-room,
she gave him an odd look. and rath-
er distant bow. Again she finished
her meal before he had left the room.
As he came out he gladly welcomed
his uncle who had returned.

I'd wash lots of my light clothes myself
the laundry wears them out SO fast, said
a young woman who lives in two rooms.
Then she heard about Fels-Naptha.
Now she is washing those things her
self, without hot water, and doing it far
better than if she boiled them.
She has found put that Fels-Naptha
cleanses things more thoroughly in cool or
lukewarm water, in little time, than if they
were boiled till Doomsday.
If you live in room, apartments or
occupy whole house, take chapter out
of this young womans experience.
Boiling is unnecessary when you use
Fels-Naptha, either in winter or summer.
All that's needed is cool or lukewarm
water, and even bowl or basin will do for
a few things.
Follow directions on the red and green
wrapper.

Take Chances Only When
Your Industry Will Help You
SMlM<

Gambling gives n wrong business ideas. Unconsciously, the thrower
of dice comes to regard all business transactions IS matters of chance, and
the poker enthusiast becomes the business sneak.
A certain gentleman of sporting proclvities once came home with five
hundred dollars as the result of a gambling bout His wife enreahd him
would nave none of her advice. He returned to the game and cam back
next morning with a thousand more, fifteen hundred in all. Again his wife
pleaded with him, in vain, for he returned N the third night with a total
of four thousand. But o. the fourth night, a luck would have it, he lost
it all, including his pocketknie, neckue and gold watch. The misfortune
made him ill. He took to his bed and his brokenhearted wife summon
ed a physician to whom she explained the whole situation.
Madam" said the doctor, 81 m sorry, I a do nothing for o
am a veterinary surgeon"
THAT is exactly why sent for you" replied she, "My husband is a
donkey"
The man who imagnes that he a succeed financially by using the
gamblers methods, reminds of the boatman condemned by John Bun
yam, because he looked way and rowed the other. He's no pulling
himself in the same direction that he wants to go.
Not only does the gambling habit give a young mar false ideas as to
the element Of chance in business, but it makes him lazy. A ma who
night to help his employer, thinks nothing of sitting up at a card table IN
ii. three in the morning, or indeed, all night, in the vain attempt to secure
money that he ought to work for, like a honest man, in the day time. A
boy who will not work a extra hour for fifty cents, will spend an entire
evening trying to beat a gambling machine ut Of twenty o r thirty cents
and come out loser in the end. He fools away his time until he is dis
missed by his employer, and becomes eventually a chronic and consttu-
tonal loafer, Industrious only when IN opportunity presents itself to take
a chance m something, stirred from his lethargy only by the new of a
rattle Or the possibility of a bet. He became so thoroughly saturated with
many oysters that he rose and fell with the tide.

The Meridian Highway idea has
started something. An east and west
road across the state from Deadwood
to Brookings is now practically an as
sUred thing. An idea that is receiving
considerable attention is a road west
from Madison to connect with this.
Another road from Madison to Sioux
Falls and still others r~adiating out OF
Madison in all directions are being
seriously discussed. And the same is
true in other counties that have
caught the fever. South Dakota roads
az worst do not seem bad to those who
have travelled the clay roads Of east
ern states; but a South Dakota road,
perfected by scientific means to the
point of being a perfect highway, will
be a matter that all our citizens will
take great pride in, and it will be the
beginning of a general good roads
movement throughout the state

When a mere handful OF men pledge
themselves to pay any and all pre-
miums in full in case Of bad weather
cutting down the gate receipts, ETC.,
as has been done on n or two oc-
casions, one a hardly blame them
for being a little conservative and
careful about expenses, etc.
Come and help us get from under
this cloud. There are many things
that go to make a fair a success as
well as a pleasure. That of amuse-
ment perhaps takes first rank. The
boys have seen the prize winners, the
bull, the hog and the sheep-grow up
from birth. They have planted the
pumpkins and the corn, have sown the
grain and have watched all come to
maturity. Do not expect them to
spend all of their time at the fair
among the exhibits. A few minutes
in order to satisfy themselves that
all items are rightly classed, etc, will
suffice. The boys, yes and the girls
have worked hard, early and late for
the past year. Let us try to furnish
them with the much needed recrea-
ton and give them a bully good time
during u week of fair.
In conclusion be sure and be on
hand FEBRUARY 18th to help make
plans for our fair of 1912 and the
best in the history of the county.

TO HIT WILDCAT SCHEMES.

A general movement is under way
among bankers Of this state to frame
and present the next legislative ses-
sion a law similar to the Kansas blue
sky enactment, which is said to be
doing good work in that state, says
a Pierre dispatch. The proposed law
will require corporations which pro-
pose doing business in this state to
snow to the state bank examiner that
they have a foundation of fact, and
that there is a chance of the investor
getting a return on his investment.
Agents of any stock corporation will
be required to secur certificates from
the state banking department before
they can solicit business. and unless
they can convince the head of the
state banking department that their
scheme has enough merit in it to
promise actual cash returns from the
investment, they will be refused the

along that line had the nerve to apply

done more to stop investments in
