for your pains.
And Folks Were Cruel.
We do some OF these same things
today, but we're ashamed Of them
anyhow. Our grandfathers were
not at all ashamed Of them. and
would have given you a good deal
to think of if you had tried to
make them SO.
'Decadence Of the raoe!" Stun
and nonsense. We are not decading,
we're rising slowly, slowly. Miser-
ably slow. faltering, not sure Of the
strange ground, slipping back every
now and then-but rising, rising, in
evitably, irresistibly.
Dominating the beast, conquering
the animal, beating down the brutal
impulses, higher, higher we rise, we
rise, thank the good Giver Of hon
est endeavor and true hearted de.
sire to be better.
OCOLuCACC VI ZIG IdCC- w 10 the
old countries just for six weeks See
some of the old prisons that pol
lutte the free air of heaven, even to
stand there empty. Go through
some of the old castles we think SO
romantic. See how the noble lords
and ladies lived, like dogs in a ken
mel, without air, without light
without clean water.
Step into one OF the cages they
used to hang In the court yards
Pretty things, those cages. They
were made just big enough to hold
man crouching, and he crouched
there in the rain and the snow and
in the beating, blistering sun, and
starved. And the women and chill
dren came to see him and laughed
at his means.
When a child OF high degree fret
ted his lady mother took him up to
the courtyard and let him watch a
starving man writhe in his agony
And then some troubadour wrote
verses about her lily hands and
bath for a year and wore her coarse
under-linen till it dropped eft.
We Don't Deteriorate.
Grand gentIes, these, fine sorigs
of nobility! The plainest clerk in
the humblest shop in our city today
wouldn't sit at the same table with
one of them any more than he
would dine with growing, mum
bling, bone-cracking, paw-biting
monkey.
No, move do not deteriorate We
rise, we rise, and our children will
rise after us, higher, higher, out o;
the mire Of selfish brutality that
bore us.
Higher, higher, see the star
shines in the far, far East, the long
night of sleeping conscience is al
most ready to break into rosy dawn
Let us be on our knees to welcome
it.

kkT%HE cause Of the decadence

The lecturer was a dried-up,

human race to deteriorate.

much starch in the food, it's too

it's the bachelors, it's the married

Over and over and round and
round, and under and about, and
through and past, they talk, and
write, and preach, and tell what it
is that makes us so decadent, and
all the time l keep on wondering
whether we really are decadent at
all or not. I can't see that we are.

The young mother, and many an old

cause of her child's Immature. The
loudness Of its crying does not neces-

trouble. 1t may have nothing more
the matter with it than a headache
or feeling of general dullness. 1t

you are safe in trying a mild laxative.

BY l. r. WaldrCn

DICKINSON, May 24.-The season
this spring has been late, in North
Dakota as elsewhere. AS result,
farmers are putting in crops consider
ably later than the usual time. Wheat
has been soWn at time when fax

1t usually is a scaly proposition to

moisture, for the reasons l have stat
ed. / would like to suggest to farm
ers that considerable emphasis be
placed upon forage crops. Oats and
barley both make pretty fair hay.
These may be sown for this purpose
up to the first of June or even d few
days later.
The foxtail millets,-German, S.ber-
ian or Hungarian, make very good
hay and these may be sown up until
the tenth OF julie. "A mixture Of mil

Hay alone does not form a suitable
basis for livestock. Some grain is
needed. This statement is true even
when alfalfa is raised, which takes
the place of grain ration. When the
season becomes too far advanced to
SOW the cereals for grain, then the
broom corn millets may be sown for
grain. These usually yield under our
semiarid conditions.
1t is presumed that every effort has
been made to secure seed corn, and
that evedy farmer is making a start

new DEVELOPMENTS
IN BOUNTY FRAUDS

PIERRE, May 24.-The wolf bounty
situation in Pennington county shows
indications of coming to focus soon,
as one of the PARTIES charged with be-
ing a part of the deal has announced
his willingness to turn oyer to the
state all the records which will show
his share in the transactions, and tell
what he knows as to the work of the
other parties interested. So far the
grand jury of Pennington county has
not returned and indications in any
of the bounty charges, and action will
be commenced in Hughes county to
cover the cases, as the money was Sc
cured from the state in this county.
While the bounty situation is yet
in an unsettled state in Pennington
county, the situation in Fall River
county indicates that wolf bounty was
not the only method used by ex- Audi
tor Herman to secure ready cash, as
the state accountant who is going
over the affairs of Fall River county
reports that he is finding fraudulent
warrants, not in any way connected
with the wolf bounty proceedings.

New Drug That Quickly Removes
These Homeiy Spots

There's no longer the slightest need
o. feeling ashamed of your freckles,
as a new drug, othine-doub!e
strength has been discovered that
positively removes these homely
spots.
Simply get one ounce of oth:ne-
double strength, from any first class
druggist and apply a little of it at
night, and in the morning you will
see that even the worst freckles have
begun to disappear, while the lighter
ones have vanished entirely. 1t is
seldom that more than an ounce is
needed to completely clear the skin
and gain a beautiful clear complexion.
Be sure to ask for the double
strength othine as this is sold under
