One day as they were moving slowly along the
banks of a river they came Unexpectedly upon q
native village. Some children we're playing be-
side the water. The boys heart leaped at sight
Of them-for over a month he had seen no
human being. Even if they were black-skinned.
were they not fellow creatures? He started
toward them. Akut laid a warning hand upon
his arm to hold him back, but he shook himself
free and ran forward with a shout Of greeting.

little stream too small to harbor crocodiles.
While he and Akut were disporting themselves in
the cool waters, a monkey dropped down from
the overhanging trees and scampered away with
the boys single remaining article of civiiiza-
ton.

Steele's CITY Hall

The ncighboring city of Steele wants a new city hall
in which the activities of the county seat of Kidder
county can be housed and staged. 1t is planned to build
a structure to cost $4,000. In general, the community
seems to be in favor of the venture.
Anyhow, the Steele Lions club has given its approval
to the project. Now. North Dakota Lions have the
reputation of being wide-awake and alive to the interests
of their communities, and when the Steele Lions approved
the new city hall plan there seemed to be little to be
said pro or con on the matter. AS the Italians say
Basta!
Steele is a lively, ambitious community and it has
some hustling business men back OF its progress. 1t will
be gratifying to other North Dakota communities to hear
that Steele has accomplished this project, as it seems or
the point of doing. 1t will hearten other North Dakota
communities to push enterprises in which their pros
perity and growth are similarly bound up.

Intelligent Road Building

It was simply adapting the motto of the United States
to the county road system when the supervisors of the 5:
townships met here and organized for cooperation IL
the maintenance and construction of feeder lines.
The idea is a good one. It means that worthiest needs
will be attended to. Patchwork will be reduced to the
get nowhere, whether it be under county, township or
municipal administration.
Money is f~rittered away when public improvements
arc made piecemeal, without regard to general efficiency
In road building. no permanent stretches are accom-
plished by the system Of improving in spots.
AS far as the county commissioners are concerned, the
tendency is to give way under pressure from local inter-
csts. In that way communities have been getting away
with murder of road improvement for some years now.
Feeder lines into the main arteries have not been de-
veloped by the hit and-miss policy.
This is to be changed. Farmers do not always pull
together with that unity which is for their own good.
Under the plan adopted by the county meeting Thursday,
cooperation among the townships is to replace the old
order of selfishness. The townships are to unite on a
program to be made up after surveys of road needs and
it will be attempted to coordinate these needs, to ap-
prove the neediest and to make the improvements in &C
cord with a program by which they will be stretched to
the utmost limit of general utility.
That is, where adjoining townships have Improvements
to make, an effort is to be made to link up these SO
that the permanent work will be continuous. In this
way feeder roads can be developed into feeder routes
to the arterial highways.
This is the system which will give North Dakota roads
not only ~affording accommodations for the tourist but
for the farmers, as we'll.
Rural folks may be reluctant to work together as they
themselves admitted at the meeting here Thursday, but
the new plan ought to work out at least IS per cent eff
ficiently. If 1t does that, Burleigh county will have &C
complished the biggest step for serviceable highways since
the federal government stepped in and extended its fl
nancial aid to the building of highways. In fact, the
county intends to initiate the government plan and give
50 per cent aid to permanent road work in the townships.
1t was for that purpose that the meeting Thursday which
was the plan of County Auditor A. C.. Isaminger, was
called.

HOW MUCH WATER!

All Of the functioning cells Of the
body are given q perpetual bath Of
water. About two or two and a half
quarts Of water are lost and replaced
by the body every twenty-four hours.
The water Is thrown out through
the kidneys, intestines and lungs, The
skin alone can lose from one to two
pounds Of water q day. The blood is
about 90 per cent water, and all of
the life processes are dependent on
q water supply. :
Some of the loss Of water is made
up the fluid we drink, but as much as
one-half may be received from the
water In food and from various food
products themselves, since after oxi-
dalton water often remains as an end
product. Even the driest food you
can think of contains some water.
One who lives on large quantities of
fresh fruits and raw vegetables may
find that his water intake Is com-
pletely taken care Of and requires no
further thought. However, one who
lives principally on semi-dry foods or
who uses q large amount Of salt
should be careful to drink large
quantities Of water during the day.
The proper amour. of drink varies
with the individual. Japanese stu
dents, learning the ju-jutsu, are often
required to drink as much as q gallon
q day, but the average American cal
get along quite nicely with about
eight glasses. In every, case the
quantity to be taken should be regu-
lated by the amount of exercise and
the heat, as one exercising or work.
ing in heat requires q large amount of
water to maintain the natural bal
ance.
sometimes advise patients to drink
water according to two trial methods
to find out which is the better for
their particular case. They are first
to try drinking after q meal II they
are thirsty enough, and then they are
to try not drinking after q meal, but
only between meals. I then check up
to see which Is giving the best results
in the particular cases.
Drinking large gulps Of ice water is
never to be recommended, either with
meals or at any other time, but there
is no particular harm in taking a
amount Of water with
meals, if it is not used to sluice down
chunks of unchewed food. It is not q
good plan to drink before q meal. as
children sometimes do, and in this
way use up most of the stomach
room with fluid and not leave enough
for the food.
There are two ways of telling II you

that blush lips indicate heart
trouble? I am Al years DID,"
Answer: A change in the color of
your lips is usually an indication Of
some heart arrangement. The best
way for you to find out your condi-
ton Is to have some physician listen
to your heart. This is far better
than guessing about it. If you do
have any kind Of heart trouble, you
can surely help yourself to improve
by following specific instructions
suited to your disorder. First, have
the diagnosis, and then write to me

II the urine is cloudy or deeply col
ored, you are probably not getting
sufficient water for your needs, and
it Is a good plan to drink an extra
glassful about two hours before the
time when you have noticed the urine
to be heavy.
Another way is to observe the odor
OF the perspiration. II 1t is pro-
nounced. you are probably not getting
enough water to wash the toxins out
OF your body, and 1t is q good plan to
use more water, both on the outside
and inside.
The best drinking water for all
purposes Is distilled water. This is an
absolutely pure form of water, v
purer than the fainwater which
nature provides. Rainwater is very
wholesome. The water which is held
IN fresh fruits and vegetables is also
IN an exceedingly pure form. The
objection to ordinary water Is that it
contains mineral and bacterial i'm
purittes which have been absorbed
from passing over the earth. These
often produce effects in the body
which are not desirable,
