BACK FROM GETTYSBURG
Veteran Ross of Wales Back Home
From Scenes of Civil War

Veteran w. j. Ross went north to his
home at Wales during the week. re-
turning from his trip with the North
Dokota soldiers of the civil war of '61-65
to the reunion at Gettysburg, Pa, 1t
was on the eve of the Fourth of July
fifty years ago that Mr.. Ross was left on
the battlefield at Gettysburg with a
bullet wound in his left lung, to be
found by his comrades on the morning
Of the anniversary OF our national holi-
day and taken to the hospital at the
rear. Mr.. Ross appears to have suffered
no bad results from his trip east to this
famous battlefield and has warm words
of praise for Gov. Hanna, who was with
the North Dakota old boys during their
stay in camp. The governor supplied
transportation over the battlefield for
them and did all possible for their com
fort. The weather was excessively
warm during the stay at Gettysburg and

North Dakota's pure food law has been,
in force quite a number of years and
the effect that has been done in %enforc:
ing the law by tate Chemis, r. +. Laid
is if possibly best demonstrated by the
steady decrease in the list of Misbranded
and,Adulterated Foods published twice
each year IN the official papers OF evesy
county IN the state. The time was, and
it is only a few years ago, when the list
Of adulterated articles of food would ex-
tend over nearly six columns of space IN
the paper, while in comparison we
would call attention to the fact that the
list printed in this issue extends to
barely a column and a half in length.
Professor Laid has proven himself a
fighter of no mean ability in the in
terest of the health of the people of the
state. He has waged a constant war
against impure and misbranded foods to
the extent that monopoly and corporate
control have done everything in their
power to take away his power and
authority of Office. AS a result today
Prof Laid has a national reputation and
stands at the very top of the ladder
among the men who have fought for and
done all they can for a pure article Of
food for the American people.

$1,000 IN SIDEWALKS
Langdon is Proud of Its Public I'm
provements for 1913

The sidewalk laying cont ract, which
has been completed during the week by
Messrs. McEwan & Chase represents an
expenditure by Langdon property own
ers in new cement walks to the amount
of upwards $4,000. to which sum may
be added over $1,000 additional for
crossings and repairs which have been
made by the city authorities. The con-
tractors have had a crew Of sixteen mon
and machinery working steady on the
Job since they started about five week
ago, during which time thirty-five cars,
practically an entire train load of sane
and fourteen hundred barrels of cement
and other material have been used in
the construction of block after block OF
new cement walks and crossings, in
many instances running the entire
length of the street. The improvement
is one of the biggest and best that
Langdon people have ever undertaken.
1t is a permanent i'm provement and is
one that can be pointed to with pride.

According to the law which went into
effect on the lst day of July, 1918, each
town ship, city and village in the county
must care for and support all paupers or
INDECENT persons within their respective
boundaries. After that date the board
of county commissioners aret not per
mitted to pay any person for care or
support of county poor or to pay for sup
plies, ETC., furnished to paupers, as the
supervision of all persons entitled to aid
under the laws for the maintenance OF
paupers is under the jurisdiction of the
local board of supervisors IN townships,
board of trustees in village and council
in cities and consequently application for
aid must be made to local officers. This
law also applies to parties now receiving
aid from county. The new law also pro-
vides that the state board Of control
shall furnish forms of blanks for all pur'
poses in connection with support for the
poor. Blanks will be furnished forth
with upon request to the county auditor

Mirror
After a Day In tho Open.

After a blowy, dusty jaunt outdoors
it is necessary to remove whatever
CRIME the skin may have collected, but
II a good face bath with hot water and
soap Is taken at night, as it should be.
this temporary scrub can be done with
cold cream. Pick up u good dab of
the cream with the fingers of the right
hand. smear those Of the left and work
the unguent into the skin with both
hands, going round and round over
each spot with the finger tips.
After the skin has absorbed as much
of the cream as it will, wipe it as dry
as possible with a clean cloth and then
go over it with another rag dipped in
some good toilet water made hot. Rose
water, violet or lavender will do, but
the heat is required for a good effect,
the warm perfume acting as an astrin-
gent.
When washing the face during the
day in this manner the throat should
also receive the same treatment so as
to keep it's condition up to that of the
face.
But if the skin does not respond we'll
to the cleansing with cream a tea
spoonful of the following lotion might
be used in Il small quantity of clear
warm water:
Tincture of benzoin. 1 ounce
Tincture of NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.. 2 drains
Tincture of EMBELLISHMENTS. 4 Trans
Rectitied spirits .............. 5 ounces
Orange flower water................ ~ pints
Add the tinctures to the spirits, then
mingle with the perfume water. If
only a small quantity of the lotion Is
needed have it put up by a druggist, as
IN this way the proportions are certain
to be measured correctly.
This lotion is cooling and refreshing
to the skin, %astringent, bleaching and
s%oftening. and if the ~teaspoonful is put
in only a cupful of warm water it will
have a better effect than if a larger
quantity of water were used.
The effect Of massage upon the face
skin is magical. If the massage is
done at home care should be taken not
to drag down the muscles Of the cheeks
or to work the throat in such a way
that the skin will be loosened too much
under the chin. The movements need
ed are very simple. The tips of the
fingers Of both hands are put at the
center of the: forehead first and work
ed round and round. They are then
run toward the temples in the same
manner.
The cheeks are massaged upward,
the throat away from the center to-
ward the ears, and after the rite is over
a cold spray and a rub off with cold
water and benzoin Ire needed for
a%stringent purposes, as, together with
the unguent required with such manip-
ulation. massage is loosening to the
skin. -
