en ee Concerning Buckles. Not long ago a Radcliffe College girl thus telegraphed to a Boston book Store: “Send me one Buckle on Spain.” A few moments later the answer came back: “Can find nothing but the hymn beginning ‘Buckle on Your Armor.’ Pardon me, miss, but ain't that more appropriate for these times?’—Phila- delphia ‘Times, . SE PLOWING MADE EASY. A New Invention—A “Stone Dodger” Plow. From the Farm Implement News. The Fuller & Johnson Mfg. Co., of M#\ison, Wisconsin, have brought out a new implement, namely, a riding plow, that is attracting much atten- tion wherever it is seen. Heretofore there has been very serious objection to the riding plow where there is stone. In striking a stone not only has there been danger of breaking the plow and harness, but the blow on the shoulders of the horses was very injurious, and worse than all, the driver was in dan- ger of being thrown off and injured. ‘These objections are overcome in this appropriately named “stone dodger plow. When it strikes a stone the plow part only is raised up and slides over the stone and pulls itself into the ground again without any action on the part of the driver. The sulky part is not raised at all. A boy or an old man who can handle the team can thus readily do the plowing. So much interest has been teken in this plow wherever it has been shown that the manufacturers have adopted a novel plan to aid in presenting its man- ifest advantages to the farming com- munity. They are having a large num- ber of models made and in any section where there is no sample plow that can readily be seen, any reputable farm can, by writing to the company, have a model sent to him by express for inspection, without expense to him, the company paying expressage both ways. The farmer, after examination, simply returns it to the express office. The model is a nice piece of work. It weighs only ten pounds. The plow is made as a single plow for three horses and as a double or gang for four horses. | A very effective potato planting attach- meut can be had h these plows a small extra cost. 0 Explosion, “Well, I’ve fired the cook,” said Mrs. Jones to her husband. “Did she go off with a bang?” said jocosely. 0, she went off with a pompa- dour,” added she, smartly.—Harper’s Bazar. h ' Shake Into Your Shoes.

Their hard lives, their liability to se- rious troubles on account of their pecu- liar organism and their profound igno- rance concerning themselves, ail com- bine to shorten the period of usefulness and fill their later years with suffering. Mrs. Pinkham has done much to make women strong. She has given advice to many that has shown them how to guard against disease and retain vigor- ous health in oldage. Fromevery cor- ner of the earth there is constantly com- ing the most convinciug statements from women, showing the efficacy of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com- pound in overcoming female ills. Here is a letter from Mrs. J. C.

St. Paul, Minn. July 19, 1898— The annual outing of the State Edito- rial association came to an end yester- day noon when the party reached the end of four thousand miles of unalloyed pleas- ure, extending from St. Paul to British Anerica’s capital, beautiful Victoria at the gateway of Puget sound on the mar- gin of the Pacific. It was a most notable trip in more respects than one. It will go down in the records of the association as the longest trip ever taken. The party was the largest ever gathered from the Irembership of the association fer an outing, and those who have been attend- ing the editorial vacation jaunts for a series of years are united in the opinion that it was the iost enjoyable trip ever taken by the fraternity of the shears. ‘Lhe trip was made possible through the splendid generosity and courtesy of the government of the Dominion of Canada, the Canadian Pacific railroad znd the co-operation of the municipalities and cit- izens along the whole length of the route. Never was warmer welcone extended. It was more than hospitable and friendly. At every halt from one end of the trip to the other and back again, the reception accorded the Minnesotans was warm and open-hearted. The Canadians could not do too much to skew their friendliness for their cousins from across the line, and made the line itself seem more than ever ireginary before the return. The trip was more than pleasurable. It was highly instructive as wel! and af- forded an absolute revelation to those of the party who had never visited western Canada before, and whose ideas of the extent and resources of this magnificent domain were exceedingly vague, based vpon fragmentary information, much of which was proved by actual inspection to be entirely inaccurate. The facilities were quite adequate, the party most congenial ard the weather perfect. The party grew in proportions after the originel arrangements were made, and when there was a final “count of noses,” it was found that there were between 180 and 190 to be provided with accommodations. Only by using the berths in the toilet rodms was it possible to provide for all the party in the four special Pullman sleeping cars, and then there was some crowding in the upper berths. When this was brought to the attention of Traffic Manager Kerr, of the Canadian Pacific, by the executive com- mittee, he promptly added another sleep- ing car belonging to the road to the equipment, 8 well as a car for the sur- plus baggage. These were added to the train at Regina, the third night out and brought an additional degree of comfort for the remainder of the trip which can hardly be estimated. This incident is illustrative of the whole course of the of- ficials of the Canadian Pacific from the highest to the lowest during the whole journey. Nothing was too good for their guests and no pains were spared that could in any manner add to their enjoy- ment. Propitious Conspiracy. The weather was all that could be de- sired. There seemed to be a conspiracy on foot between the weather bureaus on both sides of the !ine to secure the per- fect enjoynent of the tourists. 1t was evidenced first at Winnipeg. It had rained steadily for ten days or more before the Minnesota editors arrived at the metropo- lis of Manitoba, but the welcome of the citizens of Winnipeg was reflected in the very skies. Just as the party boarded the train to leave Glacier westward- bound a mountain thunder storm. broke, put the excursicrists from their comfort- able cars watching the clouds swirling down between the mountain peaks and discharging their volleys of rain and hail could hardly be persuaded that the whole thing was net prearranged by Arthur B. Calder, the Canadian Pacific's traveling passenger agent. who had the party in charge, as an additional attraction. This storm was unanimously voted an asset rather then a liability of the weather ac- count. The waters of Puget sound were on their best behavior, and the water jour- ney from Vancouver to Victoria and from Victoria to Seattle was made without dis- comfort. The last long stop on the re- turn was made at Calgary Saturday aft- ernoon. There were ominous clouds in the south and east, which promised heavy weather when the train pulled in to Cal- gary station, but not until the programme was practically concluded was the prom- ise fulfilied, and then came the rain, the blessed rain, continuing all the evening and at intervals through the forenoon on Sunday, rendering delightfully cool and clean the long home stretch of a thou- sand miles and more of prairie between Calgary and the woods of Minnesota. The financial value of this storm to the Ca- nadians and to North Dakvta cannot be overestimated, and incidentally it relieved the excursion of what must otherwise have been a distinctly tiresome portion of the long trip and brought the traveiers to St Paul comparatively bright and fresh from so long a journey. Hands Across the Line. Leaving St. Paul at 7:30 on the evening of Thursday, July 7, the run to Winnipeg was made on the regular Northern Pacific train. George D. Rogers, district passen- ger agent of the Northern Pacific, ren- dered the party many attentions during this portion of the trip. Two dining cars were attached to the train in the morn- ing, and breakfast was served en route. Bright and early on Friday morning the kodaks were produced. There were easily fifty or sixty in the party, and it was a pretty poor piece of scenery that escaped the omnipresent “snap shot” from East Grand Forks, where the first stop of any length was made, to the coast. At Pembina the customs officers were encountered, but their attentions were not oppressive. There was only a slight delay in reaching Winnipeg, the magnifi- cent equipment and road bed of the com- pany, especially on the American side of the border, enabling the unusually heavy train to be handled almost on the regu- lar schedule. Mayor Andrews of Winni- peg, C. N. Bell, secretary of the board of trade, and other citizens of the Manitoba capital boarded the train at Morris, some distance below the city, and outlined the programme for the afternoon, so that no time was lost upon arrival. Luncheon was served at the Manitoba hotel. The Ninetieth band played a pro- gramme largely composed of American patriotic airs during the repast. The com- pliment was received with applause, and the excursionists a little later in the trip prepared themselves’ for such occasions by learning a verse of “God Save the Queen,” which was sung at almost every stop in alternation with a verse of “America,” much to the appreciation of the subjects of her majesty. The Winnipeg fire department was paraded in front of the hotel, and then the visitors boarded a speciat electric train for a ride about the city. The train was beautifully decorated with the flags of all nations—except the Spanish. The British fiag in all its provincial varia- tions and the Stars and Stripes were used in profusion. On one side of the train was the motto, “British-American Alli- ance. The Anglo-Saxon race forever; and on the other, ‘Welcome to our Amer- ican cousins. The pen is mightier than the sword.” Freedom of Winnipeg. The first run was on the Broadway street line to the Osborne street bridge, affording a view of much of the business and residence portion of the city, including the public build- ings, the entrance of old Fort Garry and the barracks of the dragoons, where 2 short stop was made and where the young women of the party first gave evidence of an insatiable desire for brass buttons, a desire that drove many of the soldiers and mounted police along the route to the temporary use of shingle nails before the trip was over. The young lady who did not secure enough buttons for hat pins and a shirt waist set before returning to American soil was accounted unlucky. The next run was to the exhibition grounds, where, among other things, five buffalo were on exhibition. The party was then escorted across the city again to Elm Park, a beautiful resort, and then to Edison hall in River Park, where a banquet was served by the ladies of Win- nipeg. There were brief addresses by Mayor Andrews, President Langum, of the Editorial association; C. J. Berryhill, H. P. Hall, Very Rev. Dean O'Meara, R. L. Richardson, M. P. for Lisgar; Ald. Horace Wilson, Ald. Baker, R. W. Jame- son, M. P. for Winnipeg; A. M. Nanton, president of the board of trade; C. N. Bell, secretary of the board of trade; C. ‘W. Stanton, C. S. Mitchell, Ald. Mathers, Cc. D, Belden and D, R. McGinnis. Bou- quets and flowers were presented by H. C. Stovel on behalf of the Western Cama- dian Press association. The night was spent on board the cars and an early start was made for Portage la Prairie, where breakfast was to be served. The association now passed into the charge of the Canadian government and the Canadian Pacific, the former be- ing represented by Will J. White and the latter by Arthur B. Calder. Mr. White occupies a somewhat unique position in the interior department of tne dominion. He is its press agent, and is said to be the only appointee of the kind in any country. The trip was really Mr. White’s conception. He proposed it more/than a year ago, and has devoted much of his time and energy to perfecting the plans. He labored constantly during the whole journey for the comfort and convenience of the tourists, and to his personal ex- ertions much of the pleasure of the trip is due. Mr. Calder’s position is not so unique, but Mr, Calder is. He knows every rock and tree from one end of the Canadan Pacific to the other, and e- ceeded admirably in convincing the ex- cursionists that there is no other road like it. Mr. Bell of Winnipeg and Mrs. Bell joined the party and made the trip as far as Glacier on the return. At Re- gina A. J. Fraser, land agent of the Do- minion interior department, with Mrs. Fraser, were added to the number. Mr. ‘and Mrs. Fraser came through to St. Paul. Both Mr. Bell and Mr. Fraser placed the Minnesotans under repeated obligations for many courtesies, Canada’s Great Farm. At Portage la Prairie citizens headed by Mayor Garland and Dr. Rutherford, M. P., welcomed the excursionists, and after berakfast, served at three of the hotels, carriages were provided, and most of the party were taken for a fourteen- mile drive through the rich agricultural country, of which Portage is the center. While the visitors were shown compara- tively little, what they saw was typical of the great stretch of country extending far to the east and further to the west, where some of the best wheat grown in the world is raised, and capable of the di- versification that naturally comes with development. The growing crops appeared to be in splendid condition, and even to an eye accustomed to Minnesota soil and Minnesota crops there could be no fault found with this fair land. Unfortunately there was an unavoidable delay at Portage, which made all the sub- sequent stops for the day somewhat late and materially disarranged the pro- grammes arranged by the citizens of the other towns along the line. From Por- tage west to Brandon the country is of about the same character and is well settled and well cultivated, although there is an abundance of room for more farmers. Brandon was reached shortly before noon, and here May vans and other citizens were waiting with car- riages and took the entire party for a drive to the experimental farm. Supt. Bedford piloted the visitors about his es- tablishment, a revelation of the agricul- tural, horticultural and forestry possibil- ities. It is a model institution. Adjoin- ing the farm is an Indian industrial school, which was visited, and then after a short drive about the handsome city, the train was again taken. At the little town of Griswold occurred one of the most interesting stops of the entire trip. It was entirely impromptu and unexpected. The train stopped only ten or fifteen minutes, but the entire pop- ulation of Griswold was at the station. A number of little girls, dressed in fancy costume, like little Columbias, sang “‘Co- lumbia, the Gem of the Ocean,” and gave the ladies of the party bouquets. C. W. Speers made an eloquent address of wel- come, but more interesting to the Minne- sotans than song or address were the Indians, which were gathered on the plat- form. They were Sioux, the descendants of those ‘bad’ Indians who participated in the great massacre of 1862, and, upon the death of Little Crow, fled into Cana- dian territory. While most of them were of a younger generation, there were in the group a few grizzled old warriors who doubtless had a hand in the massa- cre. Spirit of the Hour. The stay here was all too short, and the excursion proceeded to Virden. Mayor McDonald and W. J. Wilcox, of the Vir- den board of trade, met the train some distance down the line and escorted the editors and ladies to the armory, where the ladies had prepared a bountiful meal. At its conclusion there were a few speeches. George N. Lanphere spoke for the guests and Mayor McDonald and Ed- itor Benfiam, of the local paper, voiced the sentiments of the citizens. Secretary Healy, of the board of trade, presented a formal address, which was handsoniely engrossed on parchment, beautifully dec- orated in water colors by Miss Kennedy. At Indian Head the brass band, com- posed of little Indian boys from an In- dian industrial school, played a long pro- gramme of American airs exclusively. At Regina, the capital of the Northwest ter- ritories and the headquarters of the mounted police, an elaborate entertain- ment had been prepared, but the lateness of the hour of the arrival prevented its execution. The party was banqueted and addressed eloquently by Lieut. Gov. Cam- eron of the territory, H. E. Hoard re- sponding for the association. Approach to the Selkirks, Medicine Hat was reached for break- fast Sunday morning. Medicine Hat en- joys the unique distinction of being the hottest as well as the coldest place on the continent, and this was one of its hot days. It is well into the grazing country, and the ride to Calgary, which was reached late in the afternoon, was rather fatiguing. The mountains were no win sight with their promise of cooling breezes and beautiful scenery, and the excursionists were put in good humor for the beauties to come by one of the best meals of the whole ten days, served at the Hotel Alberta. Calgary is reputed to be the handsomest city between Winni- peg and the coast, and not one of the Minnesota party will deny it. Just at dusk a short halt was made to PATENTS. - List of Patents Issued Last Week to Northwestern Inventors. Michael Ackerman, Howard, S. D, fly brush for screen doors; Lincoln A,. Lange, Yule, N.
