White Earth Young
Man is Victim of
North Dakota Bandits.
News reached this village last
week that John Sullivan, a mem
ber of. this reservation and a resi
dent of this village, had been shot
by hold-up men at Devils Lake,
North Dakota, and robbed of bis
summer's earnings, amounting to
$130. Sullivan was shot under
the left arm, the bullet barely
missing his heart, and is now in a
hospital at Devils Lake with but
slight chance of recovery. Par
ciculars regarding the shooting and.
robbery are hard to obtain, but
from others who were working
with him in the^ Dakota harvest
fields it is learned that after they
had finished working at the place
where they were altogether Sulli
van, who had accumulated more
than $130 by hard werk during
the summer, left in an automobile
owned by two young men who
claimed Minnesota as their home,
aDd the three of them started
north with the intention of looking
for more work in the harvest
fields along the Canaidian border.
That was the last heard from him
until be was found a short distence
from Devils Lake badly wounded
and robbed of his earnings. It
has been reported that the two
young men with whom Sullivan
started north in the auto were
later seen here and claimed to
reside 80 miles east of Detroit,
Minn., another report it that they
stated that their home was in
Brainerd, Minn.
Make Our Own Beauty.
Men and women make their own
beauty or ugliness. Bulwer speaks In
one of his novels of a man "who was
uglier than he had any business to
oe," and. If we could but read it, ev
ery human being carries his life in his
face, and is good looking, or the re
verse, as that life has been good or
evil. On our features the fine chis
els of thought and emotion are eter
nally at work.Alexander Smith.

imately 26,340 square miles are cov

tracts lie In the southern and central
sections of .the country, where the land

Hiawatha's Children
Garner Wild Rice as
Fathers Before Them.
Mahnomin, the wild rice of the
north, the Indian's grain for win
ter consumption, is ripe. Word
has passed that the crop this year
is not a large one. Gathering the
rice must proceed rapidly for a
hungry horde of wild ducks have
descended upon the rice fields.
The crop is gathered today as in
the days of Hiawatha and of
Minnehaha. Canoes are piloted
through miles of rice beds. The
rice is either snipped off on the
stem, or pulled from the water.
Once in the canoe, it is dislodged
from the stem by beating with a
paddle. Thus a canoe will be
loaded in a day. The hulling is
done by heating the rice in its
shell and while it is yet hot, it is
trodden by moccasined feet.
Wild rice is for sale at principal
grocery stores in the north. The
rice is bought at trading posts
direct from the Indians, or from
traders who get it from* the In
dians. The work of gathering the
rice is so tedious that few ,white
people attempt it.

The simple mixture of buckthorn

Because Adler-i-ka flushes the ali

relieves ANY CASE constipation,

such surprising foul matter that a
few doses often relieve or.prevent
appendicitis. A short treatment
helps chronic stomach trouble. The
