whole history Of the human race.

civilized age. The older ones Of
us who have not forgotten our
boyhood days know how interest
cd we were in all sorts of things
that now we do not bother our
selves about. Each boy discov-
ers for himself the things that peo-
pie, as a whole, discovered long
ago. Every boy is an explorer, a
discoverer and an inventor, and
makes his attempt to develop
laws which he thinks will suit
him and to organize his own So
ciety after his own notions. That
lis the reason for the boy gangs in
the cities and towns. Who does
trot remember the secret society
that he helped to organize when
he was a boy?
There are mighty few bad boys.

NAY A GIRL PAINT
HER FACE.

Every young woman should
scorn those compact, extravagant
styles of dress which are calculat-
ed to incite the evil and attract
vicious. Rouge and cosmetics,
which detract rather than add to
the beauty, she should carefully
avoid. Gentility and modesty-
those womanly traits which man
" men most admire-should
characterize her ways, says Rev.
T. A. Hickey, in the Brooklyn
Eagle.
She should be we'll dressed.
The world admires the modest
woman prettily and hecomingly
gowned. but recoils at her sister
who burlesques her sex by the
adoption of costumes which merit
the condemnation they receive.
We wish to see the young wom-
an so attired as to reflect the dear
est and most wholesome Of her
charms-:nodesty-and to con-
tinue to hold the admiration of
clean-minded men, the only kind
the Christian girl should wish to
draw. :.
Does the girl who adopts the
cxtravagant prevailing gowns
ever stop to ask who conceives
item? Does she ever ask wheth-
CT those persons were actuated by
mere mercenary motives?
1t is we'll to ponder over these
questions. Any parent cherishing
the future Of his daughter should
bear in mind this fact. There IS
. moral value in modesty as we'll
as real charm.
1t is immeasurably immodest to
make ones self CONSPICUOUS by
the face-smearing process. But
A little powder now and then,
Is relished by the best of them.
1t is in it's utility that it should
be relished. It banishes a gloss
that is unattractive. But this
coating of ones complexion SC
shat natures charms are conceal
ed is silly and marring. 1t is not
modest.
1t is a firl's duty to herself and
tc society Ito keep herself as
pleasing in appearance as posi-
bic.

TALLMAN DOING
fine WORK EAST
A NUMBER OF LARGE SUBSCRIP.
TIONS ALREADY SECURED.
REPORTS ARE FAVORABLE
PRESBYTERIAN HOSPITAL FUND IS
GROWING DAILY..BIG AMOUNTS
ARE PROMISED.

Word has been received from Rev.
ID. D. Tallman, who is in the ast
securing money for the erection of the
$l50,OO0 Presbyterian Hospital for this
city to the effect that he is meeting
with marked success. He has already
visited Chicago, Toledo and Cleveland,
Ohio, and Detroit, Michigan, and in the
last named city has done even better
than he anticipated. He is very much
encouraged in the work and besides
the lot Of pledges, he has received
def1nate promises of four large contri.
buttons which, when finally reduced to
actual pledges should amount to pos.
sibly $4,000. As he has but started
the work this looks as though the full
amount will be secured in short order.
The deed and abstract of the pro-
posed site comprising about fourteen
acres Of the most beautiful part of
Evans Heights is now in the posses
sion of B. j. Glattly, the treasurer.
This site Is one of the most beautiful
locations for an institution of this
kind that the Imagination can picture
and has been given as q donation by
Mrs. F. T. Evans to the institution.

answered all these requests by personal
letters. 10 addition, the members of
the department wrote one hundred ten
agricultural articles for publication.
This important work has to be done
for the most part in spare time, since
all professors are scheduled with num-
erous classes. But that isn't all. The
agronomists have conducted q special
seed list containing the names of deal
ers in pure seed and any farmers hav-
ing good seed for sale. This serves as
clearing house between those who
need pure seed and those who have it
for sale. Fifteen hundred letters we're
written to farmers who wrote for good
seed information. The sgronomy ex-
perts also attended and addressed
fifty one agricultural meetings., and
judged exhibits at eleven county fairs
and corn shows. The agronomy de.
partment of the State College gave in.
struotions last year to two hundred
ninety six students. The work of this
department can probably be duplicated
in amount by others in the South Da.
kota State College. If this isn't State
Service, what is?

ing all the way from sos mills in Fall
River county down to ia mills In
Hutchinson county, the average levies
for this year should be cut down to be-
tween seven and eight mills On .valua-
tions being returned, and the highest
county, Fall River should not 20 over
IA mills, provided that the general re-
turns are kept up to the average in all
the counties, and provided no more
money is raised by taxation"
Advertising Fall River county as pay
ing the highest levy in the state isn't
at all desirable, but let us hope that
the officials in charge of affairs may
profit by experience and plan so that
the coming year may bring relief to
the overburdened and therefore reason
ably provoked taxpayers. AS suggested
by the Pierre item, there is no reason
whatever for making the levy this year
more than fourteen mills-snd at that
we will probably exceed all other
counties. People would like an oppor-
tunity of getting along without des.
perate kick that will make trouble for
somebody.

it issues from the coiled and poisonious
worms in the distillery until it empties
into the jaws of death, dishonor and
crime, it demoralizss everybody who
touches it. from its source to where it
ends. l do not believe anybody can
contemplate the object without being
prejudiced against the liquor crime.
All we have to do. gentlemen is to
think of the wrecks on either bank of
the stream Of death, of the suicides, Of
the insanity, Of the ignorance, of the
destitution, of the little children tugg-
ing at the faded and withered breasts
Of the weeping and despairing mothers,
of wives asking for bread, of the men
of genius it has wrecked, of the mon
struggling with imaginary serpents,
produced by this develish thing; and
when you think of the jails, Of the
aims houses, of the asylums, of the
prisons, of the soaffolds upon either

full man is prejudiced against this

Disclosures Warrant Complete Investigation
Into Affairs of State.
Pierre, Ang. In spite of 'hunoh"
given out to former state officials that
they cannot be compelled to answer
queries by the investigating commit
tee, much interesting information
along desired lines is being gained
from banks which we're used as state
repositories. 1t has been ascertained
that practically all past state tressur-
ers up to Johnston, who operated un-
der the new statutes, received a nice
rakeoff from banks in the way of in.
terest on state money.
One institution, the Illinois Trust
and Savings bank, states that it paid
@. b. Collins $4 300 interest during his
four years term as state treasurer of
South Dakota. and that it paid John
Sohamber Sl5,7OO. interest during his
four years term as state treasurer.
Since the operation of the 1908
statute which was omoted by the
present state treasurer, A. w, Ewart
while he was member of the state
senate, the interest money has been
paid into the state funds. George
Johnston, who was in the office prior to
the lst of last January, is found to have
obeyed the new statute.
The investigating committees re-
searches show that the amount due the
state from these former practices, in
cluding interest on the converted funds
is S43,3S9. 1t is conceded that this
may be somewhat short of the whole
amount.
Disclosures SO far made furnish
ample reason for the attitudes of aome
of those who had been Throwing dust
at the determination of the present
administration for complete general
investigation of state affairs.
