Looking Back.
An Old Time Advertisement for
Grant County, Dakota Territory

Dr.. .Thos. Hicks, in going
through his old papers ran
across one Of the old advertising
pamphlets that was gotten out to
boom the country in the spring
of 1886. It was printed in the
Advance Office, and among the
principal advertisers in it were
Wood Bros, Sargent 4 Diggs,
Shaw & Glenn, Seeley & Buck,
Erlandson & johnson, and the
Elliot store. 1t was embellished
with cuts of the original school
house, valued at $4,000 the old
Library building, and the Con-
gregational and Methodist
churches, and boasts that the
school house was valued at $4,000.
The pamphlet was entitled
Grant County, Dakota, the Gem
OF the Great Territory and
seemingly was designed to place
before the world the great ad-
vantages of Dakota, and Grant
County and Milbank in particular
Among the successful farmers
mentioned who had made good
during the nine or ten years
from the first settlement of the
county. were: VIM. Vogelsang,
who owned $40 acres of land,
with live stock and horses and
and was considered worth
$40, 900; VIM. G. Port, who had
$50 acres of land and was worth
$4,000; Lundwig Marquart, who
in six years had secured half
section farm and was said to be
worth $4,000. A. g. Smith is
spoken of as a successful corn
raiser and pork breeder.
The assessed valuation OF Mil
bank was placed at S34O, 900. a
look into the pages OF this
pamphlet gives US glimpse OF
some of the changes that have
taken place in the past quarter
OF a century.

The Man who Wouldn't Laugh

A striking advertisement that
goes the average one better, IS
the announcement used by "The
Girl In The Taxi " 1t reads,
Guaranteed to grow laughs
where they never grew before.
This is an actual happening:
while the show was running in
Paris, certain political man of
the gay Paree. who always APP
peared with a chronic crouch,
was invited to see this comedy.
He relpied that comedy or laugh
ter did not appeal to him. After
hard coaxing he agreed to attend
the theatre that evening. He
sat partly through the first act
notionless: at end of it, he show
ed signs Of smile. The second
act brought laugh. then some
more and at the end our friend
was screaming as hard as any
one in the audience. There were
several curtain calls and when
he returned to normal, his first
remark was, by George, | have
been asleep all my life-I have
just walked up-I will be here
again tomorrow night. This
excellent comedy will be at the
Bentley Grand Tuesday October
