PLENTY OF PROOF.
From People You nKow-From Dick
insOn Citizens.

The greatest skeptic can hardly
fail to be convinced by evidence like
this. It is impossible to produce bet
ter proof of merit than the testimony
of residents of Dickinson, of people
who can be seer at any time. Read
the following case Of it.:
Fred M. Thompson, 81 w. First st.,
Dickinson, says: II was in a bad way
with my back for a number of years.
Excruciating pains caught me when
ever I attempted to stand erect after
sitting for a time. There was a dis
agreeable stiffness in the base Of my
neck and a dull, miserable feeling in
it nearly all the time. I also had a
dull, heavy ache through my kidneys.
Doan's Kidney Pills procured at We'll
ton Mcdonald G. Co.'s drug store,
gave me prompt relief and eventually
made a cure"
OVER FIVE YEARS LATER, Mr..
Thompson said: II still think well of
Doan's Kidney Pills and recommend
them as highly as ever. I have used
them occasionally since they cured
me and they have always acted well"
Price SOC, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy-get
Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that
Mr.. Thompson has twice publicly
recommended. FosterfMilburn Co.

LITTLE DAUGHTER TAKEN

Little Mary Catherine, the nearly
seven months old daughter of Judge
and Mrs. w. C. Crawford, passed
away early Thursday morning at
about 400 o'clock, having taken sud-
denly and very critically ill at
about 600 o'clock the evening before.
The child was not very strong, hay
ing endured a hard siege of illness
during the past winter.
Judge Crawford, who was holding
court at Medora, was summoned by
telephone Wednesday night and
came home on No. a Thursday norm
ing.
Funeral services were held from
the st. Patrick's Catholic church on
Friday morning at 1000 o'clock. The
little flower covered casket was car
ried by Mabel Carroll, Helen Brodie,
Kathleen Flanagan and Dorothy
Walton.
Mr.. and Mrs. w. ]. Ray were cx-
pected down for the services.
Interment was made in St. Patrick's
cemetery.
Besides her parents, little Mary
Catherine, leaves a little brother,
William, all of whom have the sin
cerest sympathy in their bereavement.

OLD TIME FRIENDS AROUND
REGENT AND HAVELOCK

Fred Griswold has been farming
about 200 acres the past spring on
his farm near Regent. His alfalfa
fields are growing fine hogs and his
pastures produce both cattle and
horses. Mr.. Griswold's family is
still in California and they have not
quite made up their minds about the
future.
A. H. Gibbs, better know as
"Allie" in colony days at New Eng
land, is farming 200 acres about four
miles west of Regent. He also raises
a few cattle and horses. The eldest
son, Alton Frank, is quite grown up.
John P. Jungers, the big man in
the Regent Grain Co., is a busy man
all the time. His company has large
grain houses at both Regent and
New England.
Frank Waggendorf, a former Glad
stone boy at the home Of Mr.. and
Mrs. G. S. Cryne, has a large tract of
land in the Kennedy territory, where
he farms and raises stock. He is
some distance from both Regent and
Havelock. This Industrious young
man was formerly with J. E. Phelan
at his ranches north. He knows all
of the old cattle men from the north.

The later especially is very practical
in this section of the country. It is
a good language, and the people here
are good people no matter what
others say of those across the waters.
Thirteen young people this year
pursued psychology and pedagogy, to-
gether with a review of the common
branches with the view to teach.
These have been given practice in
teaching for about a month under the
careful supervision of the instructor
and when they go out they will not
need to experiment so much on their
first pupils. Perhaps next year az
rangements can be made for two
months practice.
Besides, there are also the science
and commercial departments that are
receiving full attention.
In athletics, this year more has
been done than ever before. We
starred in basketball and had some
football, tennis and baseball. During
the winter the gymnasium was occu-
pied from early morning till late at
night. The tennis court in the spring
was even more in use. Mr.. Berg is
not in favor of militarism but he is
in favor of enforced exercises that
will develop vitality. Americans are
said to be v and lacking endur-
ance. The best factor in prepared
ness, a topic so popular just now, is
the strong, well developed bodies of
our young men. This is to be gained
not by automobile riding but by run
ming, walking, etc.
Lastly, MI. Berg gave a few sta
tistics on Dull school taxation, show
ing that u rates are not as high
as some imagine. Forty-one schools
in the state having the same enroll
ment as we, are taxed ten mills
higher than we are. Only two cities
in the state have a lower rate,
Fargo and Jamestown.
In speaking to the graduates, he
said, the best wishes of their parents,
friends and teachers went out with
them and he gave them their di-
plomas.
The exercises closed with the song
"Here's a Health to You, Old High"
by the boys glee club and the bene-
diction by Rev. Craig.
The graduating class this year
numbered rs, as follows:
Edgar Berg, Walter Bremen,
George Brodie, Fay Cooke, Victor
Cooke, Helen Cuskelly, Lola Dryer,
Lorene Evans, Paul Erb, Florence
Fisher, Vera Hartung, Archie Gibson,
Florence lotteries, Charlotte Larsen,
Elsie Larsen, Jessie Leask, Peter
Lish, Florence Mckenzie, Herbert Nc

PROSPEROUS ZENITH
FARMER MARRIED

At 1890 on Wednesday morning
occurred a pretty wedding at the H.
R. Breve farm home near South
Heart when Miss Marie HASTEN be-
came the bride of G. J. van Leeuwen
of Zenith. Rev. J. G. dc Bruin Of
Hum, N. D., a Hollander priest, came
out specially for the occasion and per-
formed the wedding ceremony.
Mrs. H. R. Breve, with whom the
bride made her home since coming
out here about a week before, acted
as matron of honor and L. van
Leeuwen, a brother of the groom,
vas best man.
Following the ceremony, Mr.. and
Mrs. Breve were host and hostess to
the many guests at a most sumptuous
wedding dinner.
The bride is an old friends of the
'Breve family and just arrived from
Holland a week ago Saturday. Her
experiences in crossing the waters
are very interesting. Her home in
Holland is just a few miles from the
a Leeuwen parental home.
: The groom has been here about
six years and went back for a visit
about two years ago. He is an in
dustrious young man, farming a sec
ton of land near Zenith, which is
rented from the Holland Dakota Land
bouw Co. He has prospered splendid
~ since coming to this country, own
ing quite a lot of stock also.
The young couple will be at home
to their friends on the groom's farm
after the 18th of June. They have
the best wishes Of their entire COM
munity.

Heed the Warning
If You Have a COuqh!

The deep-seated cough that does not
yield to ordinary treatment may lead
to distressing pulmonary troubles.
Or it may bring on a chronic bron-
chial affection. Many persons now in
capacitated might have avoided such
disastrous results by timely care and
efficient medical treatment.
Among the latter Eckman's Altera-
tive has ar enviable record. 1t is a
1ime-bearing preparation which is
easily assimilated in most instances.
Where used in connection with nour-
ishing food and proper living, it has
given widespread relief.
It's freedom from poisonous or
habit-forming drugs of any nature
whatsoever renders it safe to try.
And its content of calcium gives it
tonic value.

LEADING TRAIL BOOSTERS
IN DICKINSON JUNE 18th,

Posters are out announcing a meet
ing at the Dickinson opera house on
the night of June 18th which should
be attended by all good road boos-
ers-and everyone should be a good
road booster. This meeting will be
addressed by speakers Of national
reputation who are officially con-
nected with the National Parks High
way. Fred w. Turner, who has
been one Of the strongest boosters
and hardest workers for the Red
Trail, is enthusiastically working for
a big meeting.
Thaddeus S. Lane, C. C. Hart,
Frank W. Guilbert, Clyde L. Morris,
Gordon S: Corbaley, l.. H. Brown and
r. W. Woodhall, are some of the
names of the men who will. address
the big meeting in Dickinson. These
are the men who have been doing big
things and getting great results along
the line of building better roads, and
working on the great national high
ways.
Picture slides will be shown of
points of interest all along the
National Parks highway, including
views Of the Yellowstone, Glacier and
Rainier National Parks. Beautiful
scenes along the Red Trail will be
displayed as will the points of his
torical interest.
There will be no charge made for
this meeting which will not only be
entertaining but very instructive and
educational. At this time of the year
when the people all over the United
States have their eyes on the Nation
al Parks Highway the people at Dick
inson on this great trail should learn
all they can about it.
Since the completion Of the bridge
across the Little Missouri river at
Medora the last link was placed in
the great chain Of roads leading
across the continent which will, no
doubt, be taken over by the govern
ment in a very few years. This
national highway would be a fine
means Of preparedness and would be
a great protection in time Of war.
Good roads benefit everybody. Be
a booster for good roads everywhere
and attend, the meeting at the opera
house on the evening Of June 18th.

DANDEL|ON DAY
TUESDAY, JUNE 18TH

At the meeting of the board of di-
rectors of the Dickinson Young
Women's Association on Monday
evening, it was unanimously decided
that a campaign be taken up against
the ever increasing dandelion crop
which is already discoloring many a
lawn in the city.
A vote of thanks was granted to
the citizens of the city who so freely
contributed to the fund for cocoon
destruction early in the spring.
Thousands of tree worms we're thus
destroyed and still a goodly sum re-
mains over in the treasury.
The girls will expend this on furth-
er civic improvement in an attempt
to exterminate the dandelion pest.
Tuesday, June 18th, will be Dande-
lion Day. The association will offer
attractive money prizes to the ten
children bringing the greatest amount
of dandelions and ice ream to
all bringing two pounds or over.
Miss Dora Poland, who is in charge of
this branch of the association work,
will receive the dandelions at the east
door of the grade school between the
hours of 200 and 400 o'clock.
The dandelions must be dug up,
root and all. Many property owners
have already gotten busy on their
lots but vacant lots and b%oulevards
are reckoning most invitingly 10 con-
tenmplating prize winners.

LOWER INTEREST RATE
INCREASED PROSPERITY

That North Dakota is in the midst
of business prosperity is evidenced
by the bank deposits which have
reached a grand total of $125,142,-
885.03 or almost 5000 per capita.
Ten years ago they totaled but
2 7,630,117, an increase of almost
five fold. 1t would be difficult to
duplicate this remarkable increase in
the wealth in any state in the
United States.
The loans and discounts of the
banks in the state have reached the
very large total of $99,893,415.49
This does not represent, by any
means, the total amount of borrowed
capital in North Dakota. 1t is prob
able that the people of the state are
paying interest on $300,000,000 of
borrowed money.
While not all of this large amount
would be effected by the lowering Of
the legal and contract rate of inter-
est effected by the last legislative as
semble, yet it is probable that a
considerable portion was effected by
the lower rate of interest and the
saving per year to the people OF the
state in interest is estimated at two
and one half millions of dollars.
Governor Hanna was the first gov
ernor of North Dakota to recommend
a reduction of interest rates in the
state.
In his message to the 18th legis-
lative assemble he said 81 would
recommend that the contract rate of
interest be lowered from ~ to 10
per cent" and the recommendation
enacted into law.
