He tells of warm spring like weather

Tit for Tat.

The subject Of the Sunday sermon
At one of the uptown New York
churches was the duties Of the citi-
zen in time Of war. The need Of con
servation of all foodstufs vas en-
phasized, and among the persons who
gave ear was a small boy, replete in
Sunday fnery. He sat with his grand
father, a stout, rather red-faced man,
who was obviously devoted to the
youngster. sAnd at this time" said
the clergyman, in the course Of his
sermon, 1T is the small sacrifice which
means so much to the good Of the
nation generally. There is a shortage
Of sugar. Well, let us eat less candy,
for instance" The stout man nudged
his grandson. ut is time for sober,
clear-headed action on the part Of ALL"
continued the clergyman; "and when
there are so many war needs for al
cohol, why, for instance, should any
man now partake Of spirituous
liquors?" Then the small boy nudged
his grandfather.

IN TRENCHES.
Mortality Less Than in Any Of
the Previous Wars.
Physician Asserts That Disease Is So
Thoroughly Eliminated That a
Sick Man Is a Curiosity.

Readers with relatives aud friends
at the front should get considerable
comfort from a study of the mortality
statistics of the armies recently put
forward by a ~well-known physician,
London Tit-Bits states. While his fig
urcs are not so favorable as those
given out from Paris indicating that
all kinds ~of permanent losses-killed,
captured, missing and disabled-aggre-
gate but 3 per cent per annum of the
effective forces engaged, they are new
ertheless distinctly encouraging.
He finds that about sixty men per
1000 are being killed and $50 wound
ed and that a very large proportion of
the latter return to the trenches. This,
naturally, is not to be compared with
the normal death rate in time of peace
of men of military age, which is but
eight per 1000; but it is a vast i'm
provement upon the showing of any
previous war.
For one thing, disease has been so
thoroughly eliminated that a sick man
is a curiosity. The soldier at the front
is certainly less liable to attack than
If he were at home. Everything he
eats and drinks and wears, almost
everything he touches, is subject tc
the finest medical supervision Of which
science is capable, and if any particu-
larly persistent bacillus were to get
into his system in spite of all precau.
tiNnc If uyn1111 find him IN cI1oh -,
perb condition that it's work would be
futile. The high commands have thor
oughly learned the lesson that it does
not pay to train a man to be a soldier
and then lose him from a that
Is in the least degree p%reventable.
BY this same token, experience, both
in the protection Of the soldier and
in the care Of the wounded, is stead.
lily reducing the death rate as the wal
progresses. Not only are new tactics
constantly being developed which re-
suit in loss exposure of the individual
soldier, but he is constantly being
better equipped with defensive ap-
~paratus to minimize the effects of bull
let Or shrapnelsor gas attack. Finally,
from many classes Of wounds which
would have spelled probable death in
1914 and certain crippling in 1915, re-
covery is now almost a matter Of
course.
The drafted man who goes as an or
binary soldier, taking his judgment
with him and leaving his excessive en-.
thusiasm behind, has every chance

Search for Oil in Britain.

Certain eminent American geolo-
gists, the house of commons was told
lately, hold that it is well worth while
to spend a considerable sum Of money
in exploring for possible petroleum de-
posits in Great Britain, according to
a London correspondent. The speaker.
a spokesman for the board of trade,
added:
1T is impossible to exaggerate the
Importance Of finding oil in this u
try. We cannot yet say that it is here,
but it is certainly worth looking for.
"Oil is almost more important at this
moment than anything else. You may
have men, munitions and money, but
if you have no oil you are without the
greatest motive power we are using"

ITS SURPRISING
That So Many Langdon People Fail to Recoe-
nize Kidney Weakne sses

"'A sN'uHSy "C0NhSoSCS
Are you a bad back victim? Suffer
twinges; headaches, dizzy spells? Go
to bed tired-get up tired? 1t is sur
prising how few suspect the kidneys.
1t is more surprising how few know
what to do. Kidney trouble needs 8
kidney treatment. Doan's kidney
pills are for the kidneys only. Have
convinced Langdon people of their
merit. Here's a Langdon case; a
Langdon testimony. Kidney sufferers
here abeuts should read it.
Mrs. Fred Decker, residing on north
Seventh street in Langdon, says: IA
few years ago I had an attack of kid
ney complaint, in which the worst
trouble was from my back. My back
was aching constantly and it panied
me so much that 1 could hardly keep
up and do my work: For some time
l suffered severely. I had heard of
Doan's Kidney Pills SO often that 1
was easily persuaded to try them
and before long I was entirely cured.
Price sixty cents at all dealers.
Don't simply ask for a kidney rene.

same kind that Mrs. Decker had.

The big Southern California exhibit

The big Southern California exhibit

This is to be no fifty.fifty affair. The

The unusual dryness of atmospheric
conditions in North Dakota during
the present winter is stated as hav-
ing been responsible for Hon. F. L.
Watkins, of the state enforcement
league having to go to the mud
baths in Minnesota for treatment.
John CROUCH, of Munich, visited
Camp Dodge, Iowa, on his way for a
mid-winter trip to the Pacific coast,
and was shown over the camp by John
Fowler. who formerly was the Great
Northern agent at Munich. At the
time he made his visit Harold, an
ex--typo with the Munich Snyder, was
under quarantine with an attack of
the measles.
Professor NJ. O. Giorvick., prin.
cipal of the Calvin schools since their

last week, to take the physical exam

classified in the first class under the
new draft regulations. but may be
able to return until the close of the
present school years work.
The Weaver correspondent of the
Munich Herald and the school authori.
ties of that district have just termin'
ated a controversy as to whether it il
the duty Of the teacher or the janitol
to raise the school house flag eacl
day. The opinion handed down would
appear to make It the duty of thu
teacher. And it is a duty that a pa,
triotic teacher would naturally be ex'
pected to take a pride in the perform,
ance of.

Concerning the Tussock Moth.

The New York state college Of for
estry at Syracuse has recently sent out
q circular letter to chambers of COM
merce throughout the state warning
against the ravages of the tussock
moth, which bid fair to be sever on
shade trees during the next growing
season. The egg masses, which are
white and conspicuous, may be seen
readily at the present time on the
bank of elms particularly, and these
may be collected and destroyed or
daubed with ~creosote so that they will
not hatch.i The college in it's letter
has suggested that local shade tree or
park commissions take the matter Of
destroying the egg masses in hand at
once and push it vigorously.
