Some Forms of Rheumatism cur.h,.

rheumatism is a disease characterized
by pains III the joints and in the muscles.
The most common forms are: Acute and
Chronic rheumatism, Rheumatic Head
aches. Sciatic rheumatism and Lumbago.
All of these types can be helped absolutely
by applying some good liniment that pene-
trates. An application o fSloan's Eminent
two or three times a day to the affected
part will give instant relief. Sloan's Lini.
ment is good for pain, and especially Rheu-
matte Pain, because it penetrates to the
seat of the trouble, soothes the afflicted
part and draws the pain. ''Sloan's Lini-
ment is all medicine" Get a Csc. bottle
now. Keep it handy in case of Emergency.

dupont Quarterly Dividend, 9 Per
Cent.

~HA ~ X~ DANAAShN1
Cent,
AS an outcome of huge orders received
recently, especially for smokeless powder,
the dupont Powder Company has de-
clared an extra dividend. The board OF
directors met on Wednesday and ordered
the regular quarterly dividend of 2 per
cent OH the common stock. All extra
cash dividend of 2 per cent also was d.
rected in addition to a still further 5 per
cent dividend OH preferred stock of the
Atlas Powder Company.
This means that in addition to the al
lotment OF 4 per cent cash, five shares OF
the preferred Issue of the Atlas company
will be distributed for every 100 shares
OF dupont common outstanding. . The
dividend. therefore, is equivalent to 9per
cent, the largest ever made by the dupont
Company.
There was considerable speculation as
to what the dividend would be. The com
mon is now selling at $500, or therea.
bouts, OH a par value of 500. 1t is not

buffalo alarms we're recalled to the
people of Belvidere when hurryup
telephone call from Brave Bull sta
ton, near here, was received asking
for help in corraling buffalo-one OF
those which escaped from the Scotty
Philip pasture in Stanley county and
strayed to this part of the state. The
buffalo was first sighted by Mrs. JOS
eph Franel, wife of rancher, when
she went into pasture to look after
her calves. From there the animal
travelled southeast to Miss Peterson's
school, where it greatly alarmed the
teacher and pupils and then headed
for the northeast. 1t finally was found
in pasture, and from there was driv-
en- into the breaks" of White river
near Stamford, where it disappeared
in the rough country. A buffalo hunt
now is being talked of by local marks

Muskrat Amuck.

Spearfish.-A live muskrat running
through the residence streets was one
of the unusual sights witnessed here.
Several dogs were taken to the scene
and introduced to Mr.. Muskrat, but
the reception they received was SO
warm that they took to their heels.
Finally the muskrat was dislodged and
started for the railway depot. The
animal met Spearfish man in the
street and attacked him so fiercely
that the business man also was CON-
PEELED to take to his heels. The ami
NAL finally made its escape from town,
and doubtless returned to its retreat at
some point along Spearfish creek.

FARMERS DO OWN SHIPPING
Producers in Vicinity Of Lansdon
Breaking Away From Custom Of
Selling to Line Elevators.


Langdon.-Fully so per cent of the
wheat that is being marketed in Lang
don is being shipped out by the pro-
ducers, who are loading their own
grain and shipping to the terminals.
This condition is vastly different from
that prevailing several years ago, when
the bulk of the grain was sold to line
elevators.
Up to last Saturday $4,000 bushels
of grain had been taken out Of Lang
don by the Great Northern and about
$4,000 bushels of grain are stored here,
making the total grain marketed about
100000 bushels.
A survey of the surrounding district
indicates that about so per cent of all
the grain that will be marketed here
has so far been brought In.

TO TEACH FARMERS TO PLAY
Social Center Demonstrations Held At
The Little Country Theater at The
Agricultural College Near Fargo.

Fargo.-Probably for the first time
in the history of this country social
center demonstration has been held to
show the rural residents how to make
the farm a pleasant place to live. This
demonstration, at the Little Country
theater at the agricultural college, De-
cember 2 to 4, has been fathered by
Prof. A. G. Arvold of the English de-
partment of the college.
Keeping the young people on the
farm probably is one of the greatest
problems to be faced, and it is the be-
lief of Prof. Arvold that making the
farm a pleasant place to live by pro-
viding the proper kind of social inter-
course will solve the question.
Prof. Arvold plans to teach the far
mers how to entertain themselves by
social centers. He says that the schoo'
house and the country church are
places where adults of every neigh
borhood should meet often and play.
Hold debates, agricultural contests and
discuss problems of their district and
of farming.
