in the country eight miles from a doc
tor. Our son was taken i'll suddenly
and was about the sickest child / ever
saw. He was in terrible pain all the
time and passed from one CONFUSION
into another. ] sent my husband for
the doctor and after he was gone
thought of bottle Of Chamberlain's
Collie and Diarrhoea Remedy in the
cupboard. i gave him some of it and
he began to improve at once. BY the
time the Doctor arrived he was out of
danger"

Ithreshed rye which yielded an aver
age of 26 bushels to the acre, max.
ing $32 per acre from the land de-
voted to the crop, all the rye having
been sold to neighbors for seed be-
cause of its excellent quality.
Farley Fowler was the first To
/ thresh in the Hudson territory. His
barley yielded an average of 23 bush

will be nearing completion in al
parts of South Dakota, with the pos
sible exception of the northern tiel
| of counties.
Harvesting was carried on by many
| farmers last Sunday the same as or

MARITAL AFFAIRS
BADLY MIXED Up
SMOOTH SAILING SHORT LIVED
FOR BELLE FOURCH YOUNG
PEOPLE.

Belle Fourche, Aug. 5.-Marriage
is becoming a fad among the under
the age limit of girls and boys here,
and finally the last escapade resulted
in arrest for biganfy, though both
were under age, it is alleged.
Just prior to the last term of court,
bewitching young maiden in ex-
change for the affections and fidelity
of a 19-year-old youth offered her
hand and heart, and so they slipped
away to an outside town and were
married. However, ii was no HAPPY
ever afterwards matter" for the aft
erwards did not last much longer
than it took the word of the wedding
to reach the ears of the irate mother
of the young groom, than she asked
the law to step in and protect her
boy 1t did; and there was cir
cult annulment, and few weeks
later, the young lady was the bride
of a soldier boy who did his part
well on the fields of France.
Six or eight months ago, one Fran
els Nestor came to this city to work
for the telephone company, and be.
gan keeping company with a hand,
some and winning girl of this city, a
high school graduate, and he was
strong on the big stories of his mon
ey, his parents and a trip they were
going to make to California in theil
auto, for which pleasant anticipation
the young girl fell.
A week ago they were married a.
Deadwood and now it is said thu
groom languishes behind the bars o
the Deadwood jail, and will have t.
face charge of bigamy at the mex
term of the circuit court, while tn
girl in the case has been brough
back to her home, wiser though
sadder girl.
