TO STOCK RANCH
Former Railroad Man Has 10000
Acre Farm.

Mandan, N. D.. AUG. lis. j. Dun
lap. a former passenger conductor on
tho Northern Pacific at this place, is
planning on stocking his 20, O0O-acre
ranch near Custer. Mont. Mr.. Dunlap
recently spent some time looking
around for a chance to buy stockers
for his ranch. He finds cattle scarce
and prices very high but he expected
to be able to pick up a few punches
right away and possibly a few more
later in the season. He prefers to get
native stock.
While a resident of Dickinson a
good many years ago he had a cattle
ranch in the country northeast, hence
he is more or less familiar with the
business.
Grover Dunlap, who was book
keeper for the Dickinson Motor Car
company last summer, has been at
Custer for some time and is yery
much interested in the ranching pro-
position.
For several years past the Dunlaps
have resided in Minneapolis but they
are thinking now of moving to Bill
llngs, which would bring them within
40 miles of their extensive land hold
ings at Custer.
Mrs. Dunlap came down from Bill
!ings to visit her daughter, Mrs. r.
W. Ross, for a short time and it was
expected that Mr.. Dunlap would be
down the last of this week.

HOMEOPATHY

Treatment by medicine, no matter
who administers it, is giving a disease
producing agent to a diseased person.
Is 1t not well, therefore, that the ply
stefan administering a medicine be
guided by a law whereby he may as
certain beforehand what the medicine
will do?
Medicine as it is usually administer
ed, has killed more people than bull
lets and swords.
Homeopathy, being a well demon
strated law for the preparation and
application OF medicines, has saved
from suffering and death countless
numbers who without it would have
been sacrificed. .
It will pay you to investigate Home
opathy.

The Trail Of the Lonesome Pine

The play is founded on the novel
OF the same name by John Fox, Jr.

acters. The first and fourth acts are
laid IN the heroine's mountain home.

Time of the unfolding of the romance

increased the rapidity Of action. The
frst act closes with June. the little
barefoot mountain girl, on her way
to school. In the second act she
learns that Jack Is not thinking seri-
ously of marriage she believed to be
inevitable, and returns to the noun
tain. The third act thrills with the
love story of June and Jack and the
suppression Of the feud, aided by the
awakening of June to the difference
between duty of love and the duty of
the law Resulting in the reunion and
marriage in the last act Of the most
delightful book characters ever con
ceived by the modern author. The

The Village Blacksmith.

Under q spreading chestnut tree
The village smithy stands;
Tho smith, a mighty man Is he
With large n sinewy hands:
And the muscles Of his brawny arms
Are as strong as iron bands,
His hal ris crisp, and black and long,
His face is like the tan;
His brow is wet with honest sweat,
He earns whate'er he can.
And looks the whole world in the face.
For he owes not any man.
Week In, week out, from morn till
night,
You a hear his bellows blow;
You can hear him swing his heavy
sledge.
With, measured beat and slow.
Like a sexton ringing the village bell
When the evening sun Is low.
And children coming home from
Look in at the open door:
They love to see the flaming forge,
And hear the bellows roar,
And catch the burning sparks that
fly
Like chaff from a threshing floor.
He goes on Sunday to the church,
And sits among his boys;
He hears the parson pray and preach,
He hears his daughters vioce =
Singing in the village choir
And 1t make shis heart rejoice.
It sounds to him like her mothers
voice -
Singing in Paradise.
He needs must think Of her once
more.
How in the grave she lies;
And with his hard rough hand he
wipes
Atear out Of his eyes.
Observation-Disclosures
Onward through life he goes:
Each morning sees some task begun,
ZACH evening sees it's close:
Something attempted - something
done
Has earned a nights repose.
Thanks, thanks to thee, my worthy
friend,
For the lesson thou hast taught.
Thus at the flaming forge of life
Our fortunes must be wrought:
Thus on It's sounding anvil shaped
Each burning deed and thought.
