Effects Of Fear.

The coward on the field of battle
lies many times whether death comes
to him or not.
Not only on the field of battle dc
men suffer fearsOme deaths but IL
various walks of life. Their fear O,
failure makes weaklings of them, JUS,
as the fear of disease renders them d.,
subjects for it.
1t was not long since that some
thoughtless companions Of a young lady
who had horror of smallpox told hel
that she had been exposed to the dis
ease and pointed to some innocent rec
splOtches on her face as evidence tha,
she was taking it. For days and nights
she suffered from pain and fever anc
mental anguish. Upon learning the
facts in the case the physician assured
her that she had not been exposed tc
the disease and that there were nc
symptoms Of II. She thereupon took 8
turn for the better and rapidly re
gained her health.
This is but one Of the constantly re
curing instances of the effects of fear
on the mind and through it on the
body.

hours later, at Fargo hospital.
Mr.. Olstad held his hand on the

was performed in an effort to save
his life. The injury proved too
severe and he passed away in .

The Bernard Bottling Works has
been sold to NJ. G.. Bartels of this
place, the transaction taking place
on Saturday of last week and the
new owner taking over the business
at that time. 1t has been but a

business will be carried on along
the same lines as heretofore, with
the usual good service and quality

Two New Members Appointed

Bismarck, N. d.. Aug. 81. At
3:3O O'Clock this afternoon it was
announced that Governor Frazier
would appoint two members to the
board of regents to succeed Messrs.
Emil Scow and j. A. Powers and
quo warranto proceedings will be
started tomorrow to determine
their right to the positions.
A[essrs. Power and Scow hold
their positions on the board of re-
gents by virture Of the fact that
Governor Frazier has made no ap-
pointments of members to succeed
them, and the two members also as
sert that the executive is power
less to unseat them, having failed
to make nominations acceptable to
the last state senate. No appoint.
ments by the governor to the board
of regents were confirmed.
Under the quo warranto proceed
ings, the question at issue is the
right of the two officers to act.
The board of regents law, ac-
cording to the construction placed
upon it by the attorney general,
provides for the appointment of
members for certain specified
term of years. The attorney gen-
eral holds that the members do not
remain on the board until their
successors are appointed and qauI-
flied, as is usually the case.

The RICHLAND
COUNTY FAIR

On my trips through the Coun-
ty | talk to many farmers about
the County Fair. Are you going?
The County Fair is the ''t.:run
tvs big show.' If we want Rich
land County to grow to such an
extent as it's splendid soil warrants
then we must advertise. There is
no better place to advertise than
at the Fair because there will be
a big crowd. l will say to every
man, woman and child in the Coun-
ty:
First; Come to the Fair because
it is your Fair.
Second Bring something because
you ought to be able to do some
thing better than anyone else.
Third; Learn something from
the things your neighbors have
brought.
The big thing at the Fair is not
the ten cent show nor the colored
lemonade. The stock, the grains
the fruits. the roots, the school
exhibits, ETC., etc, that is where
you can get your moneys worth
That is what you ought to come AID
see. At 30 o'clock p. NJ. on the
last day of the Fair, we will have
our stock auction. The terms will
be cash with a slight commission
for the auctioneer. This will be a
splendid opportunity to sell, buy OF
examine good stock. You may b,
able to get seed corn at the Fair
There ought to be dozen othe,
business transactions for any farm
er at the Fair. 1t seems to me ths
familiar Railroad sign, "Stop
Look! Listen!" ought to be pu;
on every farm at the County Fail
time. The County Fair cores
ponds to the old time harvest fest
ivities. We have our crop. 1t may
be moderate but prices are good
Now let us get together and see
what our County has done. The,
we will start our plans for til.

Reserve Company Notes

Sergeant Ryan and Private Dv-
orak of Co. l drilled the reserves
last Monday night. Rifles be-
longing to Co. l were used and the
drill was snappy from start to
finish.
60. l was entertained at the City
hall last week by the reserves. Ev-
erybody enjoyed the program I'M
mensely and the "eats" were fine.
Interest seems to be lacking in
the matter of attendance at drill.
Only about one-third of the old
members turn out. The invitation
to drafted me ought to wake up
an interest in the company.
The help of everybody is needed
to properly pull off the big blow
out to be given Co. | in the near
future. The regular committees
are working overtime, and the rest
OF the reserves can help by boost
ing a little now and then. Let s

that they were not wanted in this

direction.
The state government has no5

He Got tho Fans

When squad of civilian volunteers

Lieut.. F. H. Roberts one day told them
about service with the destroyers.
mo special attempt" he told the
volunteers, "is made in selecting the
men to serve in torpedo craft, wheth-
er they are fat men or lean men, short
men or tall men. The character and
spirit are developed by association af-
ter their arrival. AS q rule, they are
older than the men on the battleships.
"You all know that one of the char
acteristics of destroyer is ability to
make high speed. To this end it has
always been the policy of the naval
constructors to keep fittings of the
vessel strong but of light weight. No
chances were ever lost by the naval
constructors in tightening the destroy
ers by removal Of any fittings that
they considered unnecessary"
