Heart Problems

Dear Mrs Thompson: / have one
child. sweet daughter twenty years
old her last birthday She is on the
road to ruin and disgrace. Her father
died before she was born. She is
going with a married man. He has a
wife and child / have said all know
to her and told her that his inten-
tons are only to dishonor her and
that he will bring her to shame and
disgrace.
What l say to her only causes her
to curse and abuse me. This man
is scoundrel and is no good. His
wife knows all about it and she does
not seem to care at all. / don't
know what to do.
have an old mother 70 years old.
and l can't get her to consent to
leave the girl. l don't feel like
walking off and leaving my aged
mother in such hands, but l have
told my mother if she won't consent
to leave with me l will leave them
both.
Sometimes l break down and cry
for a whole day. am so nervous.
1t seems as if she had thrown herself
away entirely. l think when a young
girl goes with a married man she has
lost all self respect and she no longer
deserves to call me mother. This is
the way feel about it. Sometimes
wish l were thousand miles away
from her. l am thoroughly Disguised
at her behavior.

with whom can make my home.
don't feel that I can stand her abuse
! any longer. This scoundrel has set
my daughter bitterly against me.
Will you please advise me the right
thing to do? l have been under a
strain for many months, but have
stood by her in the time of trouble.
| She has lost all self-respect as well
as the respect of other people.
BROkEN-HEARTED MOTHER.
Your case is certainly pitiful.
| think you are wrong, however, in feel
ing that your daughter is entirely to
blame and has forfeited her right to
call you mother Try to share her
blame by realizing that something
was lacking in her guidance. You
were not close enough to her as she
developed and did not instill into her
soul ideals of morality. 1t is not
enough for woman to make state
| menst about right and wrong. State
ments may be too stern unless they
are developed in a sympathetic under
| landing.
! l believe it would be a good plan

STOMACH UPSET?
Get at the Real Cause Take
DIR. Edwards Olive Tablets

That's what thousands of stomach
sufferers are doing now. Instead OF
taking tones, or trying to patch up a
poor digestion, they are attacking the
real cause of the ailment- clogged
liver and disordered bowels.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets arouse
the liver in a soothing, healing way.
When the liver and bowels are per-
forming their natural functions, away
goes indigestion and stomach troubles.
Have you a bad taste, coated
tongue, poor appetite, a lazy, don't
care feeling, no ambition or energy,
trouble with undigested foods? Take
Dive Tablets, the substitute for calomel.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets are a
purely vegetable compound mixed with
olive oil. You will know them by their
olive color They do the work without
gripping, cramps or pain.
Take one or two at bedtime for quick
ehef. Eat what you like Is and soc

vision and greater strength to bear
your burden.
Yes, your daughter has thrown her
self away, just as you say. 1t is a
pitiful thing to see her wilfully sac
rificing honor and happiness of life
time for short-lived pleasures. That
which is evil to the core is short
lived. One of these days the man
will tire of your daughter and she
will turn to you crushed and broken
hearted if you are ready to receive
her with a forgiving and understand
ing heart. Follow the example of
your brave and loyal little mother
and stand by your child through good
and evil.
Let me advise you again to go
away for while. You as we'll as
your mother and daughter need the
change. Perhaps your shattered
nerves only excite your daughter to
greater hatefulnesS.

All Of the bids which were opened
here at the Agency Office Monday,
May 18th for the purchase Of about
$50, 900 worth Of benefit issue cattle,
have been rejected by the Indian

bids were all considered too high is
thought to be the reason for their
rejection.

Cannon Ball Wins
From Fort Yates

With . score Of Il to 8 against
them and in favor Of Fort Yates in
the first half Of the fifth inning,
Cannon Ball, who played here Sum
day, frightened up and won the game
in close finish by a IA to 10 score.
The Fort Yates team. though
weakened BY the loss Of . number,
of It's gqpd men, played a stronger
game tKsn when they faced Kenel
two weeks before. Cannon Ball,
although reported to have a fast
team, did not succeed In con6ncinR
the local boys that they outclas,ed
them In any way.
Primeau who held the mound for
Fort Yates seemed to have the Can.
non Ball boys guessing the first half
Of the game. With the exception
ofthe second half Of the fifthj inning,
he held them down to few hits.
Cannon Ball started Alfonso Bears
ghost as pitcher and then in the
sixth substituted Jake Douglas.
Both Of these pitched good ball, but
Fort Yates had no difficulty in
finding it. Douglas, it is reported,
has now been hired to play with
Shields, the Shields team being
minus a pitcher through the loss Of
Greyday. In the eight inning
Primeau connected with a fast one
which looked at first good for a
home run, but the ball was fielded
well and he was caught at home
plate.

Octopus Not Dangerous.

The octopus has the power of changing color more highly developed than any other animal. He could ac- commodate himself to the visid back ground of a tartan plaid without a tremor. Indeed, this is his main line of defense. He clings mechanically with his many suckers to whatever he may touch, but tight grip upon the slight construction between his head and little round body invariably causes him to relax his hold. To see the impunity with which any French fisher girl will handle an octopus might dispel the fears of the most nervous bather that ever mistook an overgrown jelly fish for the eight armed terror of the deep.

DIDN'T HAVE TO HAVE PROOFS
Colored Lady Had Confidence in the Ability of Witnesses to Sustain
 Her Charge.

A southern magistrate had before him as complaining witness col ored woman who had caused to be held a man on the charge that he had attacked her with pair of scissors.
 "He mighty neah gouged my eye out, jedge," she said. "He poked me in the face with them scissors, jedge, not once, but fo' or five times. He jest cut up my face like it was a yard of ribbon. There ain't no mo danger ous man alive, jedge."
 The magistrate looked her over. She had a wide, smooth yellow face that did not have a mark on it. He told her to repeat her story, and she went through it again, telling how the man had slashed her face with that pair of scissors.
 But" said the judge, there isn't a mark on your face"
 Marks she exclaimed indignantly. Marks What I care fo' marks, femme ask yo' that? I got witnesses, I tell you!"
