State Fisheries Aid
Red Lake Indians.
Distribution of $4,000 Saved Them
From Absolute Destitution, Says Leader.

Minnesota's state fisheries at
Red Lake have been of the great
est benefit to the Indians of the
Red Lake reservation, according
to John G. Morrison, Jr., former
ly president of the General Council
of the Chippewa Indians of Min
nesota. Mr.. Morrison is taking
an active part in the campaign on
the part of the Indians to obtain
additional allotments from the
federal government.
In speaking of the situation at
Red Lake. Mr.. Morrison said that
the $4,000 distributed among the
Indians Of that vicinity by the
Minnesota fisheries kept the In
dians from being absolutely desti
tute, but that even with the rev.
enue ATTAINED from the state the
Indians are having a real struggle
fer existence.
II really don't see how the In
dams get along on the reservation
where there is no chance TO make
money as there is on the Red Lake
reservation Mr.. Morrison said.
"Only $3.50 for each ward OF
the government has been received
in the last year BY the Indians and
these wards, with NO means of oc'
cupation, have to depend on the
wild game they can obtain as
food. With the game being driven
out of the north country by the
white man, the Indian has not the
opportunity to provide his table
with the products of the forest as
in years gone by. AS a result,
the scarcity of game and the small
allotment received from the gov.
ernment has made the Indians
task in providing for himself and
family a hard one."
All Indians throughout the
state, who are engaged in business
or professional pursuits are CO.
operating in the movement to OBJ
tain an increased allotment for the
near destitute Indians of Minneso'
ia.

The Growth Of Insanity.

Statistics serve to show steady
Anarease in the number Of the insane.
Tho most reliable statistics known to
us, these taken in Massachusetts,.
show that in that state the number
Of insane in the asylums is increasing
from ESQ to 800 a year, which IN q
much larger proportionate increase
than that of the sane population. Re-
ports from other states show similar
results. Some of the more generally
accepted causes Of the increase Of in.
sanity are given az follows: The over.
tension CT modern life, brought on
by the keen struggle for life; the con.
gestion and excitement of city life.
and the fact that insanity is becoming
more and more an incurable disease.

CHAPTER w
The First Day of School.

Jim Irwin was full of his Emerson
Representative Men," and his Car
lyle's "French Revolution and the
other old-fashloned, excellent, good
literature which did not cost over %
cents a volume and he had pored long
and with many thrills over the pages
of Matthews Getting On In the
World" His view of efficiency was
that it is the capacity to see oppor-
tunity where others overlook 1t, and
make the most of II.
All through his life he had had his
own plans for becoming great. And
all the time he was bare-footed, i'll
clad and dreamed his dreams to the
accompaniment Of the growl Of the
pillow cutting the roots under the
brown furrow-sllce, or the wooshing OF
the milk in the pail. At twenty-eight,
he considered these dreams over.
AS for this new employment, he saw
no great opportunity in It, He went
into the small. mean. ill-paiG task as
part of the days work, with no
knowledge of the stirring Of the nation
for different sort of rural school
and no suspicion that there lay In II
any highway to success In life. He
rather wondered why he had allowed
Jennie's sheer to sting him into the
course of action which put him In this
new relation to his ne.ghbors.

WHY DRUGGISTS RECOMMEND
SWAMP ROOT

For many years druggists have watched
with much interest the remarkable record
maintained by Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root,
the great kidney, liver and bladder medi-
cine.
1t is a physicians prescription.
Swamp Root is strengthening medi-
cine. 1t helps the kidneys, liver and blad-
der do the work nature intended they
should do.
Swamp-Root has stood the test Of years.
1t is sold by all druggists on its merit and
it should help you. No other kidney medi-
cine has 80 many friends.
Be sure to get Swamp-Ro and start
treatment at once.
However, IL you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for .
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper.-Advertisement.

CHAPTER III
what 10 a Brown Mouse7

Immediately upon the accidental
election of Jim Irwin to the position
Of teacher of the Woodruff school, he
developed habits somewhat like a
ghosts or bandits. That is, he
walked of nights and on rainy days.
On fine days, he sworked in Colonel
Woodruff's delds as of yore. Jims
salary was to be just $500 for nine
months work in the Woodruff school,
and his was to find himself-and his
mother. Therefore, he had to indulge
and roaming about after hours only,
or on holidays and in foul weather.
The Simms family, being from the
"mountings" Of Tennessee. were rather
startled one night, when Jim Irwin,
homely, stopped and errandless, 81
iently appeared in their family circle
about the front door, They had lived
where it was the custom to give a
whoop from the big road before one
passed through the palms and up to
the house. Otherwise, how was one
to know whether the visitor was
friend or foe?
From force of habit, Old Man Simms
started for his gun-rack at Jim's APP
pearance, but the Lincolnian smile and
the low slow speech, SO much like his
own In some respects, ended that.
Stranger" said Mr.. Simms, after
greetings had been exchanged, you're
right welcome, but in my kentry you'd
find 1t dangersome to walk in thisa-
way"
How so7" queried Jim Irwin
"You'd more'n likely git shot up
some" replied Mr.. Simms, "onless
you whooped from the big road"
u didn't know that" replied Jim
I'm ignorant of the customs of other
countries. Would you rather I'd
whoop from the big road-nobody
else WILL"
Il reckon" replied Mr. Smms,
"that veal will have to accommodate
ourselves to the ways hyeh."
Evidently Jim was the Simms' first

er, Mr.. Secretary"
There was no surprise in view of
the nomination of Jim Irwin by the
blarneying Bonner when the Secretary
smoothed out the first ballot, and
read: James e. Irwin, one" But
when the next slip came forth, "James
e. Irwin, two," the board of directors
of the Woodruff Independent district
were stunned at the slowly dawning
knowledge that they had made an
election Before they had rallied, the
secretary drew from the box the third
and last ballot, and read, james E.
Irwin, three"
President Bronson choked as he an
nounced the result-choked and STAN
mered, and made very hard weather
Of 1t, but he went through with the
motion, as we all run in our grooves.
'The ballot having shown the unani-
nous election of James e. Irwin, de-
clare him elected"
He dropped into his chair, while the
secretary, very methodIcal man,
drew from his portfolio a contract
duly drawn up save the name and sig
nature. This he calmly filed out, and
passed over to the president, pointing
to the dotted line. Mr.. Bronson would
have signed his own death-warrant at
that moment, not to mention a per-
fectly legal document, and signed
with Peterson and Bonner looking on
stonily. The secretary signed and
showed the contract over to Jim Ir-
win.
"Sign there" he said.
Jim looked 1t over, saw the other
signatures, and felt an impulse to
dodge the whole thing. Then he
thought of Jennie Woodruffs
"Humph l"--and he signed
Move we adjourn" said Peterson.

Mr.. Bronson.
