CATTLE SPECULATION

Mr.. Berry owns some 1900 acres of
land In the breaks along the Missouri

winter the cattle. so head were ship
ped to Sioux City about three weeks
ago.. hut when placed on the open

turn the cost. The cattle we're then
taken to ! farm near Des Moines with
the hope OF selling at a better figure

SUCCESS

On September 30th, 1910 the Citizens
State Bank of OacOma, S. D., closed its doors
by order of the State Banking Department due
to irregular methods ~practiced by an officer of
the bank. The Public examine then directed
all Depositors to file proof of their claim against
the bank, and Immediately upon the proc eng
verified, the claim was paid i'm full from the
State Depositors Guarantee Fund.
ALL STATE BANKS in the state of South
Dakota are required to set aside a certain

for the purpose of SECURING the Depositors of

GOOD PROSPECTS
FOR SETTLEMENT
Polk and ArredOndO Continue
Conversations With View to
Formal Agreement.

Washington, July 27.-Prospects OF
an early agreement between the
American and Mexican governments
to submit the border disagreement to
a joint commission were described as
brighter today after Acting Secretary
Polk again conferred with Eliseo Ar.
redondo, Gen. Carranza's ambassador.
The conferees found themselves
closer to agreement on the several
points which have delayed formal an.
nouncement that Gen. Carranza's sug-
gestion for commission would be ac-
cepted, and there is every reason to
believe that as a result of today's con-
ference both conferees feel that de-
finite announcement will soon be pos
sible.

SAVINGS BANK III THE SCHOOL

How many of the schools of the
South are teaching the savings habit
through the instrumentality of the
savings bank in the school house?
This practical departure in education
is comon in the schools of the North
and West. In one of the New York
city school banks the children deposit
ed the sum s3,929 from February to
June, over $500 youthful bankers be-
ing the customers. Every school in
the country ought to operate a saw
iugs bank. 1t is the easiest and most
effective way of instilling the spirit of
thrift into the mind of a child at a
time when it is most receptive of
ideas.-Charlotte Observer.

DO WE SLEEP TOO MUCH.

1t was not so long ago that argu-
ment was advanced that many hours
of sleep were necessary.
Littre, the great French philologist,
who was nearly twenty years compil:
ing and printing his dictionary, never
stopped work before o'clock a. M.
and was at work again by o'clock
a. m. He was more than eighty when
he died.
During the siege of Gibraltar, Sir
George A Elliot, afterward Lore
Heathfield, is said never to have slept
more than four hours a day for four
years; yet he lived to attain the age
of eighty-four years.
Napoleon managed his greatest
campaign on an allowance of four OF
five hours a night; and Brunei, the
! worlds greatest engineer, is credited
with working twenty hours daily, and
never seeming tired or out of spirits.
While it is well known that to de-
prive man utterly of sleep is to doom
him to the most horrible of deaths,
yet the advocates of shorter sleeping
hours contend that one may get as
much iavigoration out of four hours
sleep as out of ten, or even more, for
too much sleep. they say, deadens the
senses and weakens the vitality.
The man who regularly INDUCES IN
eight or nine hours sleep will be
heavy and lifeless if suddenly de-
prived of it; on the other hand, a
brain habitually active, accustomed to
shorter period, thugh 1T would OBJ
viously seem to require a longer
time for recuperation, is readily sat
isfed by a shorter spell.
The natural function of the brain Is
activity, and while performing this
natural function it requires less in
terval for rebuilding than when per-
forming the unnatural one Of indo-
lence.
There is no doubt that the quantity
OF sleep necessary for man can be
determined by habit, but no hard and
fast rule can or ought to regulate the
hours so spent
When our forefathers said that "Six
was sufficient for a man, seven for 4
woman, eight for child, but that the
fool wanted nine," they retired to rest
by nine o'clock, and it is generally
admitted that every hours sleep be-
fore twelve is worth two afterward.
Climate has a great influence in the
matter. In some parts of the world
it is possible for men to do hard work
continuously with short sleeping
spells.
