Sometimes I have to make a dozen trips before I sell a bill of goods, and I can do a good deal more persevering than that when I am looking for a wife. You won't marry anybody inside of the next thirty days, will you? All right. I'll be around again in exactly that time, with the Same—with the same sample of young man.

Gentlemen: A short time ago I se- verely wrenched my foot and ankle. The injury was very painful, and the consequent inconvenience (being obliged to keep to business), was very trying. A friend recommended St. Ja- cob’s Oil, and I take great pleasure in informing you that one application was sufficient to effect a complete cure. To a busy man, so simple and effective a remedy is invaluable, and I shall lose no opportunity of suggesting the use of St. Jacob's Oil. Yours truly, Henry J.

Conquers pain, How a Woman Chooses Her Sent. “There are lots of thinele about wo- men that can’t be explained, and in our business we can’t help noticing them,” said the communicative con- ductor. ‘For instance, nine women out of ten will invariably take a seat on the right hand side of a car, if a car is not crowded. I have often wondered at this, and at last I think I have the correct solution, I started out from the barn with an empty car the other day, and in five blocks I had picked up seven women, and they all sat in a row on the right-hand side of the car. It was just about the hour in the morn- ing when the women come down town to do their shopping. Three men got in, and they sat on the left-hand side. “A couple of blocks farther down T picked up another woman, and, instead of taking a vacant seat near the door on the side, the side the other women were sitting, as I thought she would do, she walked the entire length of the car and sat down beside one of the men. This bit of eccentricity puzzled me until I went to collect her fare, and then I discovered that she was left- handed. See? All the other women were right-handed. Yes; it does look like rain, doesn’t it?”—Philadelphia Record. Still Talking ‘About It. Bryant, Mo., Oct. 17tu.—The case of Mrs. M. A.

She had tried everything without getting any relief, till at last she heard of Dodd’s Kidney Pills. She is strong and well to-day, and has not a single ache or pain. Mrs. Goss says: “I don’t. know if Dodd's Kidney Pills will cure any- thing else or not; but I do krow they will cure Sciatica, for they cured me, and there couldn't be a worse case than mine.” A Puzzler. “I suppose you know it is considered extremely lucky to have a black cat come to you?” remarked the clairvoy- ant. : what I came to you to learn,” remarked the thoughful man with the side-whiskers, wearily, “is the signifi- carce of having two gray cats, five black, one tortvise-shell, fou> or five cats of mixed shades and three white ones, come to my back fence and squall there every night.’"—Brooklyn Eagle.

Agent McComas, of the Indian ser- vice, recently returned, bringing the report made by himself and Senator O'Neill of Bayfield, covering the exam- ination into the question of the amount of green timber unlawful'y cut during the lumbering operations on the White farth reservation last winter. Mr. McComas declines to discuss the re- fort orto make public details of the re- sults obtained. The report will be held in the interior department until the re- turn of Indian Commissioner Jones, who will then take up the matter with Secretary Hitchcock. Mr. McComas spent a day in consult. ation with Deputy Commissioner Ton- nor and the chiefs of the various divis- ions of the Indian office. It is evident that a surprise is in store for the Indi- an seryice as a result of the White Earth investigation. It was represent~ ed by Logging Inspector Farr that, in his opinion, the re-scale of alleged green timber at White Earth could be accomplished at a cost of only a few hundred dollars, and with two or three weeks of work. It is believed that it will be necessary to establish th7t there has been an amount of gicen tim-' ber cut at White Earth greatly in ex- cess of the amount reported by Capt. Mercer, or the Indian office will be out a@ snug sum as the cost of the investi- gation. Senator O’Neill and Agent Mc- Comas, with a crew of nine expert men, spent nearly two months in going over the deserted camps at White Earth, and the aggregate cost of the investi- gation will amount to more than §$2,- 500. The total amount, of timber cut at White Earth amounted to 17,060,000 feet, according to the return made by Capt. Mercer and his report on the subject. In that report the amount of green tim- ber illegatly cut was represented to be comparatively small, probably not more than 2,000,000 feet. The difference be- tween the price fixed for dead and down timber arid that charged for tim- ber cut by tresspassers, is from $5 to $7 per 1,000 feet. There will probably be so:ne disclosures as to excess of tim- ber cut. ’ e+ “Within a few weeks we shall be able te make investigations through our in- specters in the field in the matter of the desirability of extending the county system to a number of populous sec- tions,” said Supt. Machen, of the rural free delivery service. At that time we shall investigate the needs of Wash- ington county, Minnesota, for which Representative Stevens has made re- peated and urgent requests.” Mr. Ma- chan admits that the department offi- cials regard the county system as the exemplification of the highest aims of the free-celivery system in the urban section. He speaks of the spread of the service over half a dozen counties in different sections of the country, and one just completed, suddenly increased the number of free-delivery routes in one county in New York from twelve to fcrty-three. The point is to give a county such ecmplete carrier service as to dispense with every star route service and smal) postoflice in the county, and give a daily delivery of mail to every house in the county. It is by this system that the department hopes to prove the efficiercy and desirability of the free- delivery servic2 in rural sections, ani it has teen demonstrated in at least three states that the plan is feasible and ecoromical, and that it can be done as fast as the department is pro- vided with the necessary funds. On account of the high cost of such elab- orate prcvisions for the extension of the service to the county system, it must preceed slowly. But it is known by the Gepartment officials that most of the Northwestern states furnish a, number of densely-populated couaties, where the system can be profitably in- augurated. Naval men and those who are inter- ested in all plans for increasing the fighting force of the navy are looking forward to the recommendation of President Roosevelt ‘to congress with special interest. They expect that the new president will energetically urge substantial additions to the navy. This idea is based .upon the opinions ex- pressed by Mr. Roosevelt while he was assistant secretary of the navy, at the time of the br2aking out of the war with Spain. He was among the push- ing and aggressive young men in the federal service who greatly deplored the unpreparedness of this nation to prosecute the war. In connection with this view of the matter it is claimed that President Roosevelt has intimated to some of his callers his conviction that the navy must be enlarged and in- creased at a rate that will keep it at Teast equal to those of Russia and Germany, if not advanced to the third ranking power of the world, with only Great Britain and France in the lead. TEE The question of granting privileges ot direct transmission of matter which comes from foreign ports by the inter. national system of parcels post, is troubling the officials of the treasury and postoffice departments. Vigorous requests for this privilege have been filed in behalf of half a dozen cities in states along the Canadian border, par- ticularly in those which contain a large population of foreign birth or parent- age. The department officials hope to be able tc make a decision within a few days, when it will be determined whether the postoffices at Detroit, Mil- waukee, Cleveland and St. Paul shall have the right to transmit such pack- ages as come by parcels post direct, or if such packages must go the usual route through the custom houses, tee Secretary Hichcock denies the story given out ty the general land office to the effect that the Fort Hall 1eserva- tion, in Montana is to be opened to s tiement under the old-time “sooner’ system.

LOA AAAAAAAAAAA AAS $ LAND SEEKERS, HELLO! $ Here is a Splendid Chance in the *Cloverland’”’ of Wisconsin. You want land. You realize that land is getting higher-priced and in greater de- mand every year. If you get a farm nuw and hold it 10 or 20 years—even if you should not make any money by farming— the farm will make you rich. A farm tribu- tary to the cities ‘of Minneapolis or St.Paul in northern Wisconsin, will increase in value faster than land in the prairie states because of its nearness to market and be- cause of its greater productiveness. It is hard for people who have. never seen that section to appreciate its wonder- ful growth of blue grass and clover. Where else in America will you find grass, clover and alsike spring up spon- taneously and cover a patch or a field as you will among the hard wood lands of northern Wisconsin? The waters of this section, the soil, the climate and all the natural elements tend to make it an idea} dairy country, and the markets near in- sure a good price for products all the year. Our readers will do well to write te D. |i W. Casseday, land agent of the “Soo” Line, Minneapolis, and ask him to send them printed matter describing that great section for the landseeker.
