QUESTION CLEARED UP
Dickinson Readers Can No Longer
Doubt the Evidence.

Again and again we have read of
strangers in distant towns who have
been cured by this or that medicine.
But D~ickinson's pertinent question has
always been "Has anyone here in
Dickinson been cured? The word of
a stranger living a hundred miles
away may be true, but it cannot have
the same weight with US as the word
Of our W citizens, whom we know
and respect, and whose evidence we
can so easily prove.
Mrs. E. W. Fish, E. Third St., Dick
inson, says: Give years ago I was
SO bad that I could hardly get up when
l was seated: My back felt as though
it was breaking in two and I was
nearly helpless. A friend advised me
Ito use Doan's Kidney Pills and I did
so. I was cured. It is a pleasure for
me to recommend this remedy"

F. B. FANCHER WAS PLEASED

Sacramento, Calf, April 20, 1916.
Will E. Holbein, Secretary.
North Dakota Commission.
My Dear Sir
Having just returned from my first
visit to the Panama Pacific Indus
trial Exposition, now being held in
San Francisco, I embrace the first
opportunity to congratulate the Com
mission through you, on the splendid
exhibit and showing made by North
Dakota at this the greatest Exhibition
the world has ever seen.
In it's location fronting and over
looking the Golden Gate in it's spac-
ious courts and avenues, in the Won
derful unity and artistic triumph If
the architects in designing and Great
ing its towers and palaces and above
all in the genius of it's color harmony,
beauty and charm, when illuminated,
it has never been equalled or even
approached at any Exposition held on
this continent, or any other continent
for that matter, although in regard
to this last statement, I may not be
competent to speak.
The North Dakota building has a
fine location, and from it's porches,
looking over the Golden Gate, can be
seen Mt. Tamalpias, that grand old
~battleship, The Oregon, floating in the
harbor, and a general view of the
grounds and buildings that is very
comprehensive and exceedingly at
tractive withal.
The building itself with it's beauti-
full tile roof is handsome, commodi-
Gus, comfortable and filled with a
highly attractive display Of agricul-
tural products, artistically arranged
and comparing %favorably with the
exhibits from older states where much
larger appropriations enabled CON-
missioners to multiply quantity, but
in my judgment the quality of the
exhibits from North Dakota we're not
surpassed by the exhibits of any other
state or country making an exhibit at
the Exposition.
Perhaps the most lasting impress
sion l carried away from the North
Dakota building after my visit was
the courtesy, cordiality, good fellow
ship and genuine efforts to please
shown by the officials and attendants
to each and every one who honored
the state by calling and examining
it's exhibit and
During u stay, we were frequent
ly amused and sometimes annoyed by
closed doors, pompous officials, scant
courtesy, officious guards, and fifth
assistant superintend nts of waste
baskets, declining to recognize lis as
a fellow citizen and entitled to see
the show, for which we had paid our
money. Having at n time been
chief executive of the great common
wealth of North Dakota, and at an
other time recognized as an equal by
a Pullman Porter, I am naturally
proud and don't enjoy being told to
keep off the grass" when I am walk
ing softly and don't veal hob nailed
shoes.
The point l aim to emphasize is
this. In the North Dakota Building
everyone is treated as if he were
the Prince of Wales, or Princess
Louise. Your doors are open at 7
a. M, your rest rooms + for rest,
and all are welcome to rest there. No
one has to keep off the grass in
North Dakota, and believe me, my
dear Holbein, that courtesy, kindness
and hospitality will be remembered
when the Tower Of Jewels shall have
faded from the memories of men.
Yours very truly,
(Signed) F. B. FANCHER.
