joy than all ehe ever said Beautiful in
life Bhe was even nioro beautiful in
death A radiance not of earth scomod
if out her as though she were smiling
back from loyond the veil safe iu the
everlasting arms for of bucIi is the
kingdom of Heaveu
Tho hour of her departure was at
hand when listening lovo could almost
hear tho rustle of a wing aud hope see
the guiding Btar The fow words
spoken by her former pastor fell upon
the bowed hearts as a balm and a bone
diction The simple story of her life
was sweet to hear for it was beautiful
as brief a birth a smile a tear and
then a death The primrose path of
youth for her had scarcely ended All
had been joy and gladness The reali
tios of life had just oomo to her with
the birth of her Bon as comes tho light
with tho morning Btar Sho welcomed
them with a Hinilo a tear hut was too
wonk to stny and with nn otiUitrotohod

UncloloHh riilloHojihy in Short Oliaptera
Doe i Little Independent Figurine
nn tho Homo Trado Proposition
Tho following from tho Elk Point S
D Courier is not only a woll told story
but It points a moral that applies with
strong force to Norfolk and vicinity at
this time
CHAPTER I
I dont know as an old Dakota
farmer that ulut Beon any more of this
muddled up world thnu I hev ought to
preoh to his neighbors but Im gol
darned if I cau help yolpiu a little jest
at prosout Yo boo Ive stuck to it those
Boventeou years gouo that a man cnut
do botteru to do his plain trndiu to
homo whero theres aohauco of buildiu
up the town and country round about
hlni Ivo got a farm out hore jest six
miles from Elk Point Elk Points our
noarest town nn wo call it home when
we write to friends back east Wall
twenty yonrs ago I got this farm Elk
Point wareut much to boast on then
My farm warout worth much money
either Id a had hard work to give it
away I calculate until Elk Point began
to sprout up Then I was closo enough
to a tradiu point bo that it didnt seem
so much like being on Sahary desert I
remember jest how my farm went up
from 3 an acre 4 5 9 12 14
25 nn now Im blowed if Id take
5 an acre for it Whats the reason
Why jest because tho home towns a
good one the countrys settled up and
lifes more worth livin in this vicinity
Now I say the wny to push up the value
of these farmE of ourn is jest to look
after the home interests If Elk Point
was twice as big as it is my farm would
bo worth more Tho prosperity of them
abont me increases tho value of my farm
Therefore Im goin to work for my
home interests overy time an dont you
forgot it
CHAPTER II
Now theres Tim Brown said
Uuole Josh Yesterday he camo over
to our place jubilant an he says Josh
Hamilton youre a fool
Why asks I
Because says he lookin important
you keepon buyin your goods here at
home when you know its throwiu
money in the fire Why Ive just got
a batch of groceries from Chicago an
Im ahead threo pounds of prunes two
pounds of sugar two bars of soap an
four boxes of matches Suoh savin as
thatll make a man rich in ten years
Did youflguro iu the freight I asks
No he allows but that dont
amount to anything not worth notio
ing
Well I continues soeing youre in
fcr economy lets tako a peuoil au fig
ure it out Three pounds of prunes
worth 15 conts two oakes of soap 0
cents two pounds of sugar 12 cents
four boxes of matches lOceuts 48cents

Now what was the freight asks I
Forty seven cents he acknowledged
shoopishly
Add stamp 2 cents stationary 1
cent j money order 5 cents total 55
conts You got 43 cents worth for 55
conts Tim besides all your trouble
Your moneys gone out of the commun

local circulation of money Youve
cheated some homo merchant out of a
fow cents profit but you take your but
ter and eggs to him and he gives you
moro for them than you could get in
Chicago When your cash runs out
youll go to him as youvo done timo au
agin aud ask him to carry yon six
mouths without interest Then youll
pay him back next timo you git some
cush by sendin it to mou whod let your
children starve before theyd give you a
ornokor on credit Tim Browusays I
gittlug riled youre blind as a bat to
your Interests and sioh men as you aiut
worth a copper cout to this community
Youd fight mighty port for your couutry
but you dont realize that the truest
patriotism begins right in the home
