Legitimate Errands.
81 have spoken of our commerce
and of the legitimate errands of our
people on the seas, but you will not
be misled as to my main thought, the
thought that lies beneath these phras
es and gives them dignity and weight.
1t is not of material interest merely
that we are thinking. 1t is, rather Of
fundamental human rights, chief of
all the rights, of life itself. 1 am
thinking not only of the rights of Am.
orleans to go and come about their
proper business by way of the sea, but
also of something much deeper, much
more fundamental than that. am
thinking of the rights of humanity,
without which there is no civilization.
My theme is of those great principles
of compassion and of protection
which mankind has sought to throw
about human lives, the lives of non
combatants, the lives of men who are
peacefully at work keeping the indus
trial processes of the world quick and
vital, the lives of women and children

Senate Appropriations.
Senator Gibbens of the apprOpria-
tions committee reported this morn.
ing that his committee has all of it's
bills ready to "shoOt" over to the
house today-the latest date upon
which appropriation bills may be mes
saged to the lower chamber. The ap-
preparation of $4,000 recommended
for the Dickinson normal includes all
items asked except the dormitory and
its equipment and One-half of the es-
timated maintenance for the first year.
The Dickinson normal cut is greater
than that Of any other state institu-
ton. The University, for instances,
asked 100000 for a new building and
$4,000 for equipment, while it was
allowed by the appropriations commit
tee 100000 and $4,000, respectively.
The agricultural college asked $780,
900 for an addition to the science
building and $l25,00O for an admins
tration building 1t was allowed the
full amount for the science building.
Valley City gets $4,000 for new build
ings; Minot $4,000, and Mayville S25,-
900. which with it's accumulated funds
makes total of $4,000.
The senate committee had planned
to eliminate work at the Hebron ex-
pertinent station for the next two
years, applying the 100000 thus saved
to building up institutions elsewhere
in the state. Dean Babcock of the
school of mines is here today to pro.
test against any interruption OF the
valuable work which is being carried
on at Hebron.
Aid to the rural and graded schools
has been increased in this years sen
ate appropriation bills from $4,000
to $225,O00, while the high school aid
remains the same as heretofore.
In the state departments the biggest
single Increase is in the office of At
torney General William LANCER, who
estimates it will cost him almost twice
as much to run the office as was ap-
propriated for Attorney General Linde
two years ago.

produced. This acid is called Tactic
acid. 1t destroys the enamel and den.
tine-the main tissues of which the
teeth are made up-forming cavities
in the teeth. These cavities, if not
attended to in time, grow larger and
larger. Soon The whole tooth is I'M.
dermined by decay and becomes prac.
tically useless.
Bad teeth are the cause of much
trouble, aside from the severe pain
which often results from decayed
tooth. Bad teeth cannot chew the
food properly and poorly chewed food
cannot be properly digested. This
gives rise to indigestion and other
stomach disorders.
In addition to the remnants of food
there may be deposits Of tartar on
the surfaces of the teeth. Tartar is
precipitate from the fluids of the
mouth. 1t accumulates around the
necks of the teeth at the margin OF
the gum and has a tendency to at
tach itself to the tooth structure. The
lower inciscors and upper molars are
most commonly affected.
If the tartar is not removed it ir-
ritates the gums and makes them in
TANNED and spongy. They bleed up
on the slightest touch.
Often it makes the gums unhealthy
and becomes a predisposing cause OF
the most terrible of all dental dis
ease-pyorhea. In this disease there
is a constant discharge of pus from
the sockets in which the teeth are i'm

LOCAL MANAGER BACK.

E. A. Prachel, local manager Of
the Fisk Rubber company branch, has
just returned to Bismarck, after a
week or so spent in conference at the
Fisk Rubber company's plant, located
at Chicopee Falls, Mass.
Representatives of every state in
the Union we're among the $50 branch
and district managers who attended
this sales conference. An elaborate
fourday program extending from Feb
ruary ~ to 16 kept the visitors busy
every hour of each day. A trip through
this immense 30-acre plant of this
big tire mandatory was enjoyed by
every conference delegate and the
process of tire making was observed

the crude rubber to the finished prod

HEALTH QUESTIONS.
ANSWE Ed.

T.. L.: 81 am troubled with hives
and cannot get rid Of them. What
shall do?"
Hives result from substances alb
sorbed from the intestines. If you are
constitpated that must be overcome.
If your diet is the cause that must be
changed. Generally it is advisable
for person with hives to go on a
diet of watery vegetables, some fruits,
but not berries, and bread and then
experiment in gradually broadening
the diet list.
