A DOCTORS EXPERIENCE
Medicine Not Needed in Thi3 Case.

IL is hard to convince some people
that coffee does them an injury! They
lay their bad feelings to almost every
cause but the true and unsuspected
one.
But the doctor knows. His wide eX.
perience has proven to him that, to
some systems, coffee is an insidious
poison that undermines the health.
Ask him II coffee is a cause of con-
stipation, stomach and nervous trou-
bles.
Il have been a coffee drinker all my
life, and when taken sick two years

broken down and that would have to
give up coffee.

conditions. At one time. last Friday,
there were FIVE trains stuck in snow
drifts between Mitchell and Murdo.
but the line was entirely cleared
again by Saturday night. This last
storm did not provide much addi-
tional snow, and the blockade was
due principally to the heavy snow

Is that the early part of April viii

1t Is expected that 200 farmers can

aid materially. The association can
secure $1,000 from the state, from

NEW AUTO LAW
Fails to Make ANY Provision for Sec
rotary Of State Buying Supplies.

Pierre, March 23.-Because the
automobile license act does not say
in its title that the money is trans
ferred or appropriated, and because
ii does not appropriate the money
from the state treasurer to the sec
rotary of state, a legal tangle is indi-
Gated on this measure. Senate bill
Ill, which amended the motor We
hicle law of two years ago, has placed
the money received from license of
autos and motorcycles in the hands
of the state treasurer. instead of the
secretary of state. as IL had formerly
been paid, but the new law still pro-
vides that the secretary OF state shall
administer the law, sending out the
tags, buying them and hiring clerical
help to do this, just as has been done
since two years ago, excepting that he
shall make vouchers upon the mon
eys in the hands OF the state treas
urer, and that the auditor shall draw
warrants thereupon for those neces-
sary expenditures.
The law, however, either in title or
subject matter, fails to say 1.-THE
money Is appropriated" and the SEN
ate and house records show that the
bill passed with majority" vote as
ordinary laws pass, and was not des-
ignated In any way as an a%ppropria-
ton measure and did not pass with
the necessary label, having received
two-thirds vote of the members
elect" which Is imperative for all ap'
preparation measures.
The law still provides that cal
owners and dealers shall get license:
and tags and that Is per cent of sucf
funds received shall be sent to the
state treasurer through county treas
urers. 1t also provides cars canno'
be operated without such license ant
tags. Ii the secretary of state canno
get the money from the state treas
urer to supply the licenses and tags
because the new act does not specif
ically appropriate 1t, then owners
cannot receive tags or license.
1t is not known what ruling tn
attorney general will make upon thu
act, but laymen here, among stat
officials. believe the act cannot pos
sibly be considered an appropriation
act.
The secretary of states depart
ment has received a ruling upon tn
operation of the act as to license fea
lures, in which 1t is held that tn
price of auto licenses, until Januar,
1, 1916, will be Sc for automobiles
So for motorcycles. $40 for dealers
extra plates 50 per pair and transfer
81 each. That cars bought afte
June 80. 1915, can have half rate
and that autos in use five years. pre-
ceding January i, 1915 get a one-hal
rate. In other words, the old law !
still in effect, excepting that dealer
get half rate, or SIS. after July
; The new law, as to cutting the fees
J will not begin to operate until Jan
uary /, 1916, though other provision
; will be operative July i. 1915.
