Too Terrible to Describe Tortured by
IL Since Childhood,

Washington, D. c., Feb. IL, 1913.-
"Since early childhood I have suffered
untold misery with that terrible tor
ture eczema, IN the backs of my hands
and fingers. I have spent hundreds OF
dollars on treatments aud c~onsulta-
tons and bought every known remedy,
but could not be cured. My hands
would crack open, oft times showing
the ligaments, and the skin would
stick to the inside of my gloves.
THE itching was too terrible to- de-
scribe n sleep was possible only
when in an exhausted condition, This
winter I had given up all hope Of ever
finding a cure, when / heard of Resinol
and purchased some. The results were
perfectly marvellous. I used three Jars
of Resinol Ointment, with Resinol
Soap, n my hands are perfectly cur
ed. I cannot find words strong enough
To praise Resinol and what it has done
for me. / wish everyone needing relief
from that stubborn and ~torturfng af-

WORK STARTED
ON SPRING CREEK
RAILROAD WORK IN CENTRAL
DUNN COUNTY BEGINS
IN EARNEST.

Manning, N. D., May 21.-That the
Spring creek country is to have a rail-
road Is no longer a dream of the resi-
dents but an assured fact was demon
strated this week when it became
known that an outfit consisting of
about forty teams, a number of men
and suitable equipment for grading
had been unlaoded at Taylor and is
now camped on Spring creek, near the
Paulson place, getting things in shape
to commence work. This outfit belongs
to one of the many sub-contractors
who have small contracts for grading
from the original contractors, the
Cook Construction Co, of Helena,
Mont, and it is probable that other
contractors will be located both east
and west at an early date. The sixty
two miles from Stanton will be COM
pleted this year if possible and the
work is to be rushed with all possible
speed in order that the work of laying
the steel may continue west as far as
1t is possible to go this season..
1 The new railroad will tap one of the
richest sections of the state, and it
bids fair to develop to a greater extent
now that the railroad is assured. There
are thousands of acres of land along
the Spring creek valley owned by
spectators and these acres will be
thrown on the market in quarter sec
ton lots to actual settlers, thus in
creasing the amount of land under Gull
tivation and enabling the farmers now
located and the new settlers to market
their crop at nearby stations.
The coming Of the railroad means
more to the farmers of Dunn county
outsiders imagine. The average
living at a distance of from
forty to fifty miles from market has
spent in actual cash almost half the
value of his crop in getting it to mar
ket, and then it takes from three to
five days to make one trip. 1t has
been faith in the future development
of the country that has kept them
here and now that the long-looked-fo
and promised railroad is at last about
to be a reality, the settlers are over
joyed-and they lave good reason to
be. With railroad facilities Dunn
county will develop into a great ag-
ricultural country--it will just begin
to grow.

Two of the proudest communities in
Clay county are those Of Rustad and
| Glyndon and they are SO because of
| the very successful outcome of the
festivities yesterday in connection with
the dedication of their respective con-
solidated school buildings, the one at
| Rustad costing SIS, 900 and the one at
suspicious occasion was the presence
of the chief executive Of the state of
Minnesota, a firm believer and advo-
cate of the consolidated school idea.
Afternoon Festivities at Rustad.
The weather was not the best, but
everybody rallied to the aid Of Miss
Rushfeldt, the county superintendent
of schools, who had worked so hard to
make the occasion a success. Governor
Eberhart made the remark that he
would not have disappointed Miss
Rushfeldt in the enterprises of the day
for all the presidents and greater I'M
~dertakings in the world-he had i'm
portant engagements in the east. but
the one with Miss RuShfeldt n her
programmes arranged for at Rustad
and Glyndon lowered above all of them.
Aside from the little discontinue in
the weather there was not a thing to
mar the proceedings in any way.

gathering was called to order by
President Rustad of the local school

present and especially expressed ap-
probation for the large attendance
and show of interest on the part of

The first address was made by f.
A. Weld, president of the normal

ment, DR.. 0. J. Hagen and Miss Rush
felt closed with a spicy and distinc-
lively appropriate address in which
she emphasized her heartfelt apprecia-
ton to the parents who had so nobly |
rallied to her assistance in perfecting
the work that was contaminated by the
proceedings Of the afternoon.
A feature Of the occasion was the
very excellent music supplied by the

DOUBLE CAPACITY
AT THE TERMINALS
GREAT NORTHERN WILL INCREASE
ACCOMMODATIONS FOR NORTH
WESTERN GRAIN-DULUTH TER
MINALs ARE EXPECTED TO MAKE
GREAT GROWTH.

AS a result of the increased acreage
IN the northwest n consequent X
tension of it's railway lines to tap new
~ developed farming country, the
Great Northern road will soon begin
the work of practically doubling its
elevator capacity at the head of the
lakes
This has been the subject for some
time, but nothing of a concrete nature
was given out until yesterday. One of
the leading members of the Duluth
board of trade, who is closely connect
ed with the Great Northern interests,
admitted that plans are being formu-
lated for a great extension of the
roads elevator capacity at Duluth.
The road now has elevator capacity
amounting to between $500, 600 and
100000 bushels, but the past season
has shown that with the great amount
Of new land being farmed in the north
west and bumper crops likely to be-
come the habit, there is not nearly
enough elevator capacity at the head
of the lakes and the Great Northern
road has suffered in particular for it's
lines, main and branch, tap the richest
Of the farming country. Of this part of
the grain growing world, and its new
branches, continually being built, are
not only tapping but opening up new
and rich farming territory and are
carrying the crops therefrom.
The new elevator will be built on
the Superior side of the bay and work
will begin soon. No ground is yet
broken, but that is a mere matter of
detail and will be attended to as soon
as the size of the elevator has been
fully determined. 1t is expected that
a steel structure will be built which
VIII have a working house Of about
{. 100000 bushels capacity and an an
mex, the capacity of which will be
about 10000 o to 5000, 900 bushels.
This will be one Of the largest work
ing houses in the northwest, the aver
age capacity being usually about 1,0OO,-
900 bushels.
1T is quite generally believed and
voiced too, and the Great Northern in
~terests are not denying 1t, that that
organization is looking for the Duluth
market to grow tremendously in the
near future and is merely forestall-
in the way of storage capacity. The
tendency OF elevator people lis to look
upon Duluth as the place where the
increased acreage will cause the great
est growth on this side of the line, and
despite the fact that much elevator
capacity lis being constructed and more.
planned for Port Arthur and Fort
Williams, Duluth, 1T lis expected, will.
one of the greatest handling points
for Canadian grain.
In the matter Of elevator extension,
Elevator company will soon
plans for an extension OF considerable
size. @ EI. Spencer, manager of the
company, said that they have been con-
sidering such a project for the last six
months and that while nothing has
been determined as rel lit is quite
likely that$the company will make ex-
tensions: but further than that he
could not say.

Second Ward Fairgrounds.

Operations are to be put under way,
this evening, for the transforming of a
patch of vacant property at Fourth
street and Fourth avenue south into a
summer playground for children. An
appropriation of $50 for the improve
ment was made by the city council a
few days ago on motion of A. w. Bow
man, alderman of the Second ward,
and the grounds are to be placed at
the disposal of the children with the
least possible delay. A call for a
cleanup bee has been issued and the
assistance of every willing hand to aid
in the clearing away of rubbish and
underground will be greatly appreci-
ated by the promoters of the improve
ment. When the clearing away of the
rubbish has been done a number of
swings, see-saws, seats, ETC., will be
provided SO that the children can well
enjoy outdoor life during the vacation
t 1t is a good work and one
that is deserving the encouragement
of every person in the second ward.

MISS DARE WILL Leave

Miss Evelyn Dare, the popular spot
light singer at the Orpheum theatre,
will terminate her engagement on Sat
urday evening, and within a week or
ten days will go to Chicago, where she
will accept a splendid engagement in
one Of the large houses, and later-next
fall will likely head her own company
in a clever musical sketch that is now
being written for her. Miss Dare has
beer with the Orpheum the past eight
months and it isn't often that a novelty
singer plays an engagement of that
length, but the audiences that have
listened to her for these months will
be pleased to know hat she will have
a fine engagement. Manager Fowler
Of the Orpkeum will fill in the time
on the programme made vacant by
Miss Dare, by the ~celebrat-
ed. talking moving pictures
which are now being installed
in the house and which will be shown
for the first time next Monday after
noon, and they are said to be some
thing new and novel.

GRADERS WORK
WEST Of STANTON
CONTRACTOR DICKINSON Ar.
RIvES IN TAYLOR WITH
GRADING OUTFIT,

Taylor, n. D., May 21.-That the
north country Is at last to have a
railroad now is. a certainty. Grading
outfits are already at work on the
extension west from Stanton and the
work is being pushed as rapidly as
possible and from the outlook at pres
ent 1T looks as though the road would
be ironed In time to handle this fairs
crop.
Contractor Dickson, of Minneapolis.
arrived in Taylor last Friday with an
outfit comprising twenty men and
forty head Of horses. He has the
grading contract for /; stretch Of four
miles, starting at a point near. the
a Paulson farm, through which
the right-of-way was bought last
winter. The outfit left for the north
country Thursday and will at once
establish a camp and commence
operations. Mr.. Dickson was non
commital on the subject Of steel lay
ing blu said that his contract called
for a completion of his stretch of
grading by the middle Of October.
AS these four miles are at the extreme
western edge Of the grading already
let for this summer there is every
reason to believe that before snow
flies trains will be running on the
new extension.

12-s--1e.

The feature of this design is the centre,
which is of lace work, or, as some call it.
of punch work. Of course, the material
selected must be loosely woven or else it
will be impossible to draw aside the
threads to make the lace effect. These
meshes are not cut, merely drawn aside
and the number Of threads should be care
fully counted so as to make the holes
even. The surrounding design is worked
in French embroidery, although the satin
stitch can be used for the loose rose petals
and for the bow knots. Pure white or
white combined with pale pink, blue or
corn color will make a pretty cushion top.
and be sure to select wash floss for any.
thing as useful as this.
The above pattern can be obtained BY
sending 10 cents to the office of thi
paper.
