Miss Hilda Christopherson of Car
Pic was the guest of Mrs. Chas. Wis
from the fore part Of the week.
H. T. Hogy, representing the 500
emigration project, is home for short
visit. He says the Soo's campaign is
becoming mighty effective and eastern
people are just getting interested in
the values offered in the way Of North
Dakota real estate.
The: III. 7. Hogy elevator is in charge
Of Ira Stoddard, whose experience in
base ball playing stands him in good
stead as he has to do some mighty
tall hustling to care for the grain that
lis pouring in.
Messrs. John, Grover and Earl Hart,
who have had the contract Of running
the brick kilns at Davis, returned to
their homes in Pine Island, Mimi, as
brick making at the local plant has
been discontinued for the present, at
least.
Mrs. Anna Sheehan returned
Thursday from Pine Island, MIMI,
where she has been attending a big
camp meeting Of the Penticostal de-
nomination.
School opened Tuesday with an ex-
cellent attendance. Miss Anna Chris

mary teacher and Miss Laura Randall

son is camping in the hills with all the
requirements required to bag the willy
duck. The young ladies in the party
are Miss Mildred Jasobson of Minot,
Miss Benson of Carpio and the Misses
Myrtle Hogy and Grace johnson Of
this place. It. is to be hoped that the
young ladies will do as well at least as
the party Of nimrods from Burlington
who last season shot up a choice bunch
Of tame DUCKS belonging to one Of our
prominent farmers in the hills district.
Is it a mistake to suppose that
there is law upon the statute books
Of good old North Dakota to the eff.
feet that noxious weeds must be de-
stroyed? Have we no official who has
this matter under his direct supervis-
ion? A weed that bids fair to replace
the Canada thistle and rag weed is
the sour dock, or as some call it, the
yellow dock; to be exact the Rumex
Crispus, a perennial that is hard to
kill. Repeated cutting may extermi-
nate it but complete uprooting. is the
only sure remedy. The roads are lined
with this weed, vacant fields are filled
with it, and we venture prediction
that inside of five years we shall con-
slider the Canada thistle a blessing as
compared with the sour dock. Let ev-
eryone get busy and do his part to-
ward DESTROYING every stalk Of this
most pernicious weed. Even in the
streets Of our village, the door yards
Of some Of our citizens, the school
grounds and surrounding the church
Everywhere these weeds are growing.

! Prosperous Times for the Farmers.
The American farmer will see the
most prosperous period in history dur
ing the next year or two, it is predict
ed by those who are familiar with the
situation.
In the United States there are less
cattle than in many year, with an in
creasing population. The price Of cat
tie, hogs, sheep, poultry and the like
lis bound to soar. VI #
The European war takes thousands
Of horses. The price of horse flesh is
certain to advance in this country.
All kinds Of grain will command
top notch prices. Eggs will be worth
no less than q nickel apiece during
the coming winter and butter and
cream will sell for more money than
in years.
All this ought to make farm land
worth more money. If you have a
good farm hang onto it. #

~Knock Knees Sign of Stupidy @Bow Legs of Briancy

\ TIER an investigation which has lasted four A years pr. Leslie Helms. the sorthopeddc spe- cialist has convinced hlnloelf by psycholog- ical laboratory tests that persons with pigeon toes and knock knees have decidedly lower mental state than normal people Dr. Helm calculates that about per cent of all men have slight degree of in-pontng feet or convexties of the knees
 Not one of those who subjected to the psychic tests were anywhere near perfect When examined for their capacity to associate ideas to remember quickly they all proved to be sluggish and much slower than the ordinary man.
 Even the memory for colors and past events. the steadiness of the muscles. the acuteness of the

senses and the control of the hands all disor- dered defective or much slower in the pigeon-toed.
 Dr. Helm also searched the individuals with this strange trouble for their power of recognition and recall Pictures. photographs. paintings and sculp- ture, well familiar faces. were exposed to them.
 He is certain that not one of the pgeon-toed indi. viduals could approach the ability of the normal footed in recognizing quickly and accurately the things shown.
 Although only few persons with bow legs were studied Dr. Helm was amazed to find that they not only surpassed in mental boise those with inturnod feet or knock knees. but the bow-legged ones were decidedly brighter than the pe-sen with Fl,

 The corsage of the Spectre de Ia Rose is ! of pale ecru maline. filled in with Point de Alencon in front. A slight garniture of roseE at the gitdIe deepens the at- mosphere of the rose fin this; which regard as one of the greatest of my tri- umphs. Even the crushed girdle of the pale rose lined wittf the deeper shade. ., bit of the lining turned back. is to my mind model in the true message of colorE
 Simple elegance exudes from ono of the fHyorite models for the street. It Is: of taffeta in the early Autumn shades of leaf brown. A little heavier than the, taffeta worn in Summer. 1t is of q beau. tiful' moire in fine, almost invisible stripes. the costume having . delicate, never obtrusive. effect of conbtant change. and in the early Autumn sum light has the effect of sunshine shim- mering on g leaf-bottomed brown pool in the forest.
 The skirt is scant. but wider than tho more severe walking costumes A knee. length drapery is of chiffon edged with wide folds of the silk curving from the waist line to the back in a gracefully graduated line. The upper part of the gown is of blouse-like effect. finished with small sailor collar at the back and vest of maline, The coat is loose and straight, meeting the folds at the back. The simplicity of gown and coat are deepened by rather tight sleeves. ending in narrow cuff on' the coat and finished by three dainty buttons on the gown.

 The coat is straight and loose at the back. is slightly fitted at the sides and front The narrow shawl<collar is of corresponding looseness of effect. This Thave made on dark green serge.
 In Le Sentier (the Path) is seen the same exceedingly scant skirt. But above the knees the skirt has drapery of three full folds. one above the other and at least six inches apart. The skirt is part of a. mUdel. made, on,prihcess lines, the upper part being of the same mate rial. depending by narrow. bands from the shoulder and worn, over a plain waist slip of black satin. The coat Is full and loose. smart touch being fur. nished by the broad belt crossing in front beneath the bust line. To the nars row coat collar touch of color is given by its topping of brilliant Turkish em. broidery. in which reds and yellows predominate.
 One of my favorite designs of the new season is dainty dancing gown which have named the Spectre de la Rose (the Ghost of the Rose) It is built of taffeta of the palest rose color The skirt is very narrow and open on the right side to the knee over a petticoat of Point de Alencon lace. The drapery consists of three rows of the taffeta graduated from the front to knee length at the back. The two upper rows of the seal Ioped silk are ot the pale rose. but the lower one is of 8 deeper shade, and peeping from beneath the lower Is 6 full panel of yet deeper shade.

 While this investigator does not in so many words say that all pigeon-toed crazy. he does not mince matters in the slightest when he emphasizes their woeful lack of mental perfection. He even gives lot of historical data that mental giant since Moses ever had turned feet.
 Even the invalids such Popel Gdbbon, Milton. Poe and similar Gargantuan intellects who were physically weak, had no limb deformties
 He has also found in institutes for the feeble minded that the proportion of inmates with pigeon toes is out of all expectation Over 58 per cent of idiots, imbeciles and morons have turnedin feet. while there is noteworthy absence ct bowed lcss

MILsON REpEALER wINs IN HOUSE.

n RESIDENT WILSON has forced through the
House of Representatives his bill for the repeal
of that portion Of the Panama Canal act exempting
from the payment Of toll American coastwise ships
which use the canal. incidentally, by doing, he has
split the Democratic representation in Congress and
the Democratic party the nation at large. Local in
terest in the great fight in the House yesterday IS
centuated by the fact that Representative Franklin
Brockson OF this state lined up with Speaker Champ
Clark voted against the President and the repeal
with him were 81 other Democrats while 16 Of the
Democratic members refrained altogether from voting
The great majority of the Democrats voted to support
the President 221 recording themselves in favor
Of repeal other words the prediction Of the admin
istration whips that the repeater would have
orty of 100 final passage practically was verified
The actual majority Sc the vote being PAS to 162
An analysis of the in the most exciting fight Of
the session is interesting OF total of 2S9 Democrats.
221 voted for repeal against it 16 refraned from
voting OF the 122 Republicans % voted for repeal 9S
against and refraned from voting. or 20 Progress
sives, voted for repeal and Il against it, The
Independent voted for repeal 1t will be there
fore that while most of the Democratic members stood
by what was denounced the un-Amercan policy of
the President of the Republicans and Progressves
stood by Speaker Clark and the 81 other Democrats
who voted against It.
It cannot be denied that the President has won a
victory. Many look upon it, however which has
lost him a host of party friends within and without
Congress. who regard his attitude surrender
TO Great Britain and violation Of a distinct party
pledge In other words it is victory which has
caused Democratic breach which will not heal fully
while Mr.. Wilson is President.
The administration whips assert that the re-
pealer viii pass the Senate in the face of Democratic
Republican and Progressive opposition Because Of the
small Democratic majority in that body and the insur
gency OF prominent Democratic Senators, It is alto
gether likely that the fight there will be bitter
and fraught with uncertainty than the in
the House.

PREsmENr REA's EXPLANATION.

a RAILROAD is a business and not an eleemosynary
institution To be successful II must be run
upon business and eleemosynary principles. What
it does must be done at reasonable profit or, sooner
later, will drift into bankruptcy to the injury
ruin of thousands OF investors and to the serious
impairment of the public interests which depend so
largely upon the adequacy and efficiency of transpor-
taton facilities. Those things being undenaby true
public interest should be excited by the official state
ment issued by Samuel Rea, president Of the Penn
sylvania Railroad Company in explanation Of the
action Of that company in laying of and reducing
the number of trains. II is follows
The decision to reduce train service and work from
the forces Of the Pennsylvania system while apparently
sudden should not be considered surprising, as the
published monthly statements of the system have
shown the large decreases in net operating income
and other laws. higher taxes and other expense items
caused decreases. which are not peculiar to the
Pennsylvania railroad. These causes still exist, and
in addition the gross revenues OF the system nave
been steadily decreasing since last October.
While many other railroad systems began to reduce
forces in the middle Of 1913 the Pennsylvania system
continued usual train service and working force
long possible
In view Of the fact however that in the four months
ending February 2S 1914 compared with the per-
iod the previous year operating decreased
GIL the company is compelled to reduce operating ex
penses.
The falling off in earnings and traffic demands lower
operating expenses, and the only way to bring this
about Is to reduce train service and the number OF
employees
Such a frank statement relative to impelling and
compelling causes the lay-of should to d-
rect the attention Of those affected disastrously
by the lay-on to search for the underlying causes
which have produced the business depression. 1t
should be borne in mind constantly that the lay-of
is merely the result and not the
