PAGE 8 GENERAL SCOTT MAY PAY VISIT TO FORT YATES Famous Army Man to Come to Standing Rock Reservation as Member of Commission F. Yates, N. D., July 30.—Standing Rock Indian reservation and Fort Yates will soon entertain one of Am- ica’s best known and most highly honored military men, General Hugh L. Scott, who was shief of statY of the United States army when this country entered the great war and who held that position until a year ago last December when he reached retirement uge at 62, The city learned of General Scott's expected visit from Colonel James H. McLaughlin who is making an extend- ed stay here as Indian inspector. General Scott's visit to Fort Yates is of significance not only because of his reputation, but also because it was here where he was married. He married the daughter of Major Merrill of the famous Seventh cavalry, which was then stationed here. General Scott was at Fort Yates for four years, and it was While there,, as first lieuten- ant, he journed to Fort Yates to claim his bride. General Scott comes here as a member of the board of Indian com- misioners, having been appointed as a member of the board since his re- tirement from the army, He is the most recently appointed member of the board. ‘I'he members of this board are appointed by the president and their inspection and reports on Indian reseryations are independent of other authority, The former chief of staff not only showed his ability as a soldier, win- uing highest honors in a military way, Lut is a man of marked talents in other Ways, and possesses strong character. It is said he is able to talk the native tongue of every Indian tribe in the United States, acquiring this most dif- ficult accomplishment on the frontier. His interest in and love for the Indian scryed him in this as much as did his desire and talent for the languages cf America’s first citizens, Colonel McLaughlin is authority for the statement that General Scott uever touched liquor, smoked a cigar or a cigarette, or used tobacco, and this is most remarkable, as Colonel Me- Laughlin believes after knowing per- sonally @ great majority of all -otficers of the United States army who began service previous to the Spanish-Amer- jean war. Recently General Scott wrote Col- onel McLaughlin that he would like to visit a Sioux reservation together with the colonel and upon learning that Colonel McLaughlin would be here for’ several weeks, General Sco.t uranged’ a trip which includes an inspection of Blackfeet, Peck and Crow agencies, and from the latter to Stand- img. Kock. He left Washington July 25 and will probably be here early in August, CONFERENCE ON POWER TRANSMISSIONS PUT OFF The conference scheduled for today between the railway commission and representatives of North Dakota tele- phone apd power companies has been indefinitely postponed upon advices from H.

The chief habit forming prin- ciple of tobacco is nicotine, a deadly poi- son which, when absorbed by the system, slowly affects the nerves, membranes, tis- sues and vital organs of the body. The harmful effect of tobacco varies and de- pends on circumstances. One will be afflicted with general debility, others with catarrh of the throat, indigestion, con- stipation, extreme nervousness, sleepless- ness, loss of memory, lack of will power, mental confusion, etc. Others may suffer from heart disease, bronchial trouble, hardening of the arteries, tuberculosis, blindness or even cancer of the common affliction known as tobacco heart. If you use tobacco in any form you can easily detect the harmful effects by making the following simple tests. Read aloud one full page from a book, If, in the course of reading your voice hecomes muffled, hoarse and indistinct, and you must fre- quently clear your throat, the chances are that your throat is affected by catarrh and it may be the beginning of more ser- jous trouble, Next, in the morning be- fore taking your usual smoke, walk up three flights of stair at a regular pace, well, Doctor Tells How to Detect Harmful Effects of Tobacco Try These SIMPLE TESTS then stop. If you find that you are out of breath, your heart beat is forced, victim of functional or organic heart trouble. If you feel that you must smoke, chew or snuff to quiet your nerves, you are a slave to the tobacco habit, and are positively poisoning yourself with the deadly drug, nicotine. In either case you have just two alternatives—keep on with the self-poisoning process irrespective of the dangers and suffer the consequences, or give up the habit and escape the dan- gers, You can overcome the craving and stop the habit in a very short time by. using the following inexpensive formula, Go to any drug store and ask for Nicotol tablets, take one tablet after each meal, and in a comparatively short time you will have no desire for tobacco, the crav- ing will have left you. With the nicotine poison out of your system your general health will quickly improve. Note—When asked about Nicotol tab- lets, one of our leading druggists said: “It is truly a wonderful remedy for the tobacco habit; away. ahead of anything we have ever sold before. We are au- thorized by the manufacturer to refund the money to every dissatisfied customer, and we would not permit the use of our name unless the remedy possessed un- usual merit.” Nicotol tablets are sold in this city under an iron-clad money- back guarantee by all the up-to-date druggists, including Lenhart's and Jos.

STRUCK, AT HEART QF TRADE Institute: Brands Propaganda in Favor'of Restraining Leg- islation' Vicious Chicago, Ill., July .30.—The packing industry replied to Senator Kenyon’s assertion on the floor. of the senate that “the greatest. propaganda that ever had been undertaken in this country ig now in full swing with ref- erence to ‘the bill. for regulation o1 the packers.”’ The reply was made by the Institute;of American ‘Meat packers,“comprising avout two hun- dred packing firms. Thomas E, Wil- son is. chairman. of the committee which ‘is: now directing the work or the institute, says ihe statement. ‘Senator Kenyon has charged in the senate.of the United States that the packers are sending out propaganda against this bill to place the packing industry under federal license.
