With the popularity gained by his
war achievements, Hayes became the
outstanding candidate for Congress
in his district and was easily elected.
While governor OF the state. he was
chosen Republican candidate for the
presidency in 1876. After q close
contest with Samuel j. Tilden, he
was inaugurated in 1877. He had
won by one electoral vote.
His administration was honest and
he showed his independence Of char
acter by refusing to pander to par

IAN spent the following forenoon
writing letters, q task that he
had no taste for: but he wanted to
be at home in the event Of a tele-
phone call from Grand United. He
wrote q long-overdue letter to Ziggy
Young. Ziggy was clamorous for
news Of himself and Anne Winter;
and Ziggy said that his mother
down in Tulsa. who was very fond
OF Anne, had wanted to know what
kind OF a person Dan Rorimer was.
"And II you don't write pretty

her. Furthermore, I've still got

know that her money will be used in . way which will
bring benefit to the state Of North Dakota long after
most Of US now living are dead.

w.
Question: Mrs. II. p. writes: What

to live on the right kind Of diet.
Fruit Fast for Liquor Habit
Question: M. g. writes: Refer
ring to your article on the liquor
habit. will you kindly advise character
OF diet treatment so as to obtain the
best results?"

few days will positively eliminate any
abnormal craving for liquor. If one
wishes to stop drinking alcoholic in
toxicants he will find it very easy to
control himself after the cleansing
effect of q fruit fast.
Trouble with Gums

causes SO much acid In my mouth
as to cause my teeth to be sore under
the edge Of the gums. Am very con-
stipated. What can I do to remedy
these conditions?"
Answer: Improper diet Is the cause
Of pyorrhea, trench mouth, or any

The Least Of These

AN VS%0 III
with Bisnarcks annual community chest drive under
way, 1t is well for those who are In position to give to
ponder well what their contribution should be.
The advantages Of the community chest idea to the
giver are well established. He gives only once and that
once suffices for oil the multitudinous activities which "a
to make up modern city life and which demand funds
from the public.
He is spared the bother of being eternally solicited for
this and that and-above all-he escapes the possibility
that, In giving, he may give not wisely but too well. Un-
less some restraint is put upon them, there is q certain
class Of people who will solicit money for whatever cause
seems likely to have an appeal. and the ca~use-whatever
it may ~be-farely sees much, II any, Of the money.
But there are other advantages IN supporting the chest
and not the least Of them is tho satisfaction which every
one gets from being q part Of q worthy effort. At all
times and In all places there are people who, through no
fault Of their own, need help. Often these people have
friends and relatives who win come to their assistance.
In such cases the public hears nothing Of them. Others,
lacking help from sources individual to them, must get
help from the general public or sink into an abyss Of
spiritual and physical nothingness.
No one doubts but that the money contributed to the
community chest will be spent wisely this year Of all
years. There win be 100 cents worth Of work for every
dollar to do and the people in charge Of the chest know
this.
But In this effort. IS In all others, 1t Is the individual
rho counts. The aggregate sum sought Is large ut GER
tainly no larger the- the need.
And in taking counsel with himself a. to what is his
fair share, each Bismarck resident might also take coun-
sci with Him to whom the poor never pleaded in vain
They should remember that even as you do unto the
least Of these, My brethren, you do also unto Me-" :
