oftl
Letter Frta mm Old-Timer.
IU1. Water is now sottled at hi?
new home in Missouri, and seems to
like it very well. hullowing is a
letter from him to the editor of the
Record, written partly at Braddock
before he left and partly in Missouri
after he arrived there:
"Well, after a residence of nearly
twenty-seven years in North Dako
ta. 1 am about leaving to try a new
location -for awhile, at least and
I thought I had better write you
my new address, and inclose a small
sum on subscription. 1 have taken
the Record so long that I can't think
of giving it up while you are
running it, which will probably be
as long as you are alive.
"I wish you the best of success,
Streeter, in all your undertakings.
(Right here I found I had to load
my car, and so didn't get a chance
to finish until I reached my new
home).
"I arrived here at Lecoma, Mis
souri, on the 25th of March. I find
the vegetation much farther along
than in the northwest. Fruit trees
are in bloom, and it is warm enough
for summer. I have seen some of
the children going barefoot. The
grass and grain are green and fresh
looking, but it is very dry for this
time of year.
"Change the address of my copy
of the Record to Lecoma. Mo. 1
have never missed a copy of your
paper in nearly twenty-aix years,
and it is too late to think of quitting
now.
"I still have *540 acres of Dakota
dirt, and so am very much interest
ed in the future of the state.
"We have bought a nice little im
proved farm here of about a hundred
acres, and it looks as though we
ought to be able to live comfort
ably, make a living, and not have to
work very hard.
"Wishingyou all good things, 1 am
"Truly yours, D. H. Yeater."
Will Pull Together.
The Rev. Nathan Wood sends to
the editor a marked copy of the
Milnor Teller giving an account of
arrangements that have been made
there between the Methodists and
the Presbyterians for the purpose of
holding alternate services. The
article says:
"The Presbyterian and Methodist
church people have come together
in an agreement to hold alternate
services. Rev. Wood, of the Metho
dist church filling both pulpits.
"The services will be alternated
every three months, the morning
service first going to the Presbyter
ian church and the evening service
to the Methodist then the evening
service to the Presbyterian church
and the morning service to the
Methodist.
"A new board of trustees have
been appointed, consisting of three
members from each denominational
church board, who will take charge
of the new arrangement, collect all
moneys for minister's salary, and
pay all bills relative and applicable
to the new regime.
"It is hard to tell at this time how
an arrangement of this kind will
work out. This is only a trial. If
it lasts for six months it is likely
another year will be entered into,
under the same conditions.
"The first of the morning services
will be in the Presbyterian church
n«xt .Sunday at 10:45, and Rev.
Wood will take for his theme, 'Christ
in the Storm.' In the evening his
subject will be, 'Rut He could not
be Hid.'

FOR SALE -FARM.
I offer for sale my farm, in Sec.
1, Twp. i:u, Rge. 76. It consists
of K2 acres, and is situated seven
and a half miles north of Winona
and four and a half miles south of
Kmnionsburg. I have ten acres
plowed, but the entire farm can be
broken and cultivated. The farm is
on the banks of the Missouri river.
A creek runs by the house. The
dwelling is 16x16 feet and is built of
logs. The barn is 15x15 feet, built
of lumber. There are also a chicken
house, hog-pen, etc. There is a fine
grove near the house. There is no
prettier place in Emmons county
I wish to sell because of old age,
which makes me unable to farm the
land. For particulars call on me at
the farm or addresa me at Winona.

FAMOUS GIANTS.
Jefcn Middlaten th» T«ll»t« of th« More
Modern One*.
The record of men remarkable for
their height toniiiionie- at an early
period of the recorded liUtory of
the world, for in the Old Testament
Op. Wing if Rasluin. is mentioned as
using a Itedsteud nine cubit- lon^,
which is about sixteen and a half
feet. Later we read of tioliatli of
Gath, slain by David, whose height
was "sis cubit- and a span." The
Emperor Maxirnin was of va-t bulk,
according to some measuring over
eight feet. Then Pliny writes:
"The tallest man that has been seen
in our age was one named (iabara.
who in the days of Claudius, the
late emperor, was brought out of
Arabia. He was nine feet nine
inches.''
Of more modern giants there was
John
Middleton,
called the child of
Hale, who was born in Lancashire.
England, in 15T8. He was nine feet
three inches tall. His hand meas
ured seventeen inches from the
wrist to the tip of the middle finger,
and the palm was eight and a half
inches in breadth.
Patrick Cotter, the "Irish Giant,"
was horn in 1701 and measured
eight feet seven inchcs in height.
His hand to the tip of the middle
finger was twelve inches, and his
shoes were seventeen inches lung.
Charles Bryne, called O'Brien, was
eight feet four inches. He died in
1783, and his skeleton is in the
museum of the Royal College of
Surgeons.
Big Sam, porter of the Prince of
Wales, afterward George IV., at
Carlton palace, was nearly eight
feet tall.
M. Brice, a native of the Yosges,
seven feet six inches, exhibited
himself in London in 1862-3.
Robert Hales, the "Norfolk
Giant," was seven and a half feet
tall and weighed 452 pounds.
Chang Woo Gow, a Chinese giant,
was seven feet eight inches when
nineteen years old, when he was ex
hibited in London in 1865. Grown
to eight feet, he exhibited at the
Westminster aquarium with Brus
tav, a Norwegian giant, seven feet
nine inches, in June, 1880.
Captain Martin Van Buren Bates
of Kentucky and Miss Ann Hanen
Swann of Nova Scotia, each about
seven feet tall, exhibited in London
and were married at St. Martins-in
the-Fields, June 17, 1871.
Marian, the "Amazon Queen,"
born in 18CC, was eight feet two
inchcs tall when exhibited in Lon
don in 1883.
Joseph Winklemaier, a native of
Austria, eight feet nine inches tall,
exhibited in London in 1887.
Elizabeth Lyska, a Russian, was
six feet eight inches when exhibited
in London in 1803 at the age of
twelve.—Boston Globe.
The Shillalah.
The .shillalnh is not a mere stick
picked up for a few pence or cut
casually out of the common hedge.
Like the Arab mare, it grows to ma
turity under the fostering care of
its owner.
The shillalah, like the poet, is
born, not made. Like the poet, too,
it is a choice plant, and its growth
is slow. Among 10,000 blackthorn
shoots perhaps not more than one
destined to become famous, but
one of the 10,000 appears of singu
lar fitness. As soon as discovered it
is marked and dedicated for future
service. Everything that might
hinder it9 development is removed,
and any offshoot of the main stem
is skillfully cut off. With constant
•are it grows thick and strong upon
a bulbous root that can be shaped
into a handle.
Motherly Encouragement.
"Mother," she said, with a little
catch in her voice, "I'm beginning
to be almost afraid the count wants
me only because he thinks he can
get a lot of father's money with
me."
'Mv dear child, don't worry
about that. Your pa is enough of
a business man to get him at the
lowest possible figure, and tlw title
will be just as much yours if he
marries you for money as it would
in* if he took yon because he wor
shiped the ground you walked on
—Chicago ltecord-ilerald.
Aaking Too Much.
The country doctor had come to
prescribe for Lucy, the colored
cook's little daughter, who was suf
fering from the unfashionable ail
ment known as "chills."
The doctor opened his saddlebags
and prepared several doses of the
time honored remedy quinine in
capsules.
Lucy sat up in bed, watching the
proceedings with great interest, as
the doctor filled each tinv capsule
and capped it. But when she heard
the instructions, "Give her one of
these every two hours," she wailed
hi terroY:
"Is you gwine to mek me swalkr
iem little glass bottles, stoppers an'
ill?"—Youth's Companion.

International Humor.
In America all jokes concerning
dogs and sausages refer to the ru
mor that sausages are made of our
dumb friend. In Europe sausages
of very poor quality are part of the
goldiers' rations: hence this French
joke: "What! You leash your dog
with a chain of sausages:'' "Yes
they are army sausages." Ameri
can readers looking for the old joke
to which they are accustomed fail
to see the point. It means that
army sausages are so poor a dog
wouldn't eat them.—Kansas City
Time5.
(I CONSISTENT COURSE.
The Only Reasonable Action Open to
the Republican Congressional
Committee.
[From ibe St. Louis (ilobc-Demoerat.l
In the campaign of 1910 the re
publican congressional committee
will give out republican literature,
and not insurgent literature. The
committee will not oppose insur
gents in the primaries, and will not
work against them at the polls if
they receive the nomination. But.
before and after the primaries, in
giving out campaign documents, the
committee will confine itself strictly
to documents which bear the stamp
of republican regularity. If the in
surgents want literature of their
own complexion they will have to
supply it themselves.
This is the program which has
been agreed upon in conference be
tween the republican leaders and the
president. It has sense on its side.
The designation "Republican" which
the congressional committee carries
means exactly what it says. It was
the republican party which carried
the country for congress and presi
dent in 1908. The party has taken
the country at its word. Thus far
we have had a republican policy. A
few men masquerading under the
republican name have impeded the
party. They have joined with the
democrats in attemtps to defeat the
program of the party which elected
them. Through the aid of these
men the democrats are counting on
winning some seats in the house in
the election this year. The republi
can congressional committee cannot
reasonably be expected to aid in this
conspiracy.
None but republicans will be put
on guard in this exigency. The is
sues which are before the country
are large, and the people by their
votes in 1908 said that they wanted
these issues to be settled along re
publican lines. It was a republican
and not a mugwump convention
which nominated Taft. Republi
cans and not insurgents elected him.
The men who bear the republican
label have a majoritv of forty-seven
in the house of representatives. In
a chamber of 391 members this mar
gin is not very broad. It is broad
enough, however, if every member
who appealed for republican support
during the campaign of 1908 car
ries out the pledge which he made
in accepting the republican candida
cy. On a narrower margin than this
the republican party has often made
a great record. The republican lead
ers are attempting to give the Amer
ican people the sort of government
which they asked at the polls a year
and a third ago. If the element that
entered congress under false pre
tenses prevent the republicans from
meeting the people's expectations,
the people will know just where to
lay the blame. If the ten or fifteen
representatives and senators who
were elected as republicans, but
who vote as democrats, expect aid
from the republican congressional
committee this year they are urea
sonable. This is not what the repub
lican committee is here for. Re
gardless of the mask which he car
ried at his election, the man who
votes democratic must be classed as
a democrat. Only two parties are
recognized in our political scheme
to-day. These are the democratic
If you expect to kalsomine or paper your house, it will pa\ \»u to call and look ovei oui line, as
we have just received our new stock of Wall Paper, ranging in price from 15c to 60c a roll.

and the republican. Our politics
takes no account of hybrids. The
man who opposes republican meas
ures is practically a democrat. In
the campaign of 1910 no democrat
need apply for aid from the republi
can congressional committee.
