From it and derangement of the kidneys and urinary organs, come most of the pains and aches and all diseases of the skin. Dr. Green's King Cure is a remedy that is intended to strike at the root of this trouble. It acts as a diuretic evacuant in eases of Dropsy, Gout, Gravel, and all diseases of the kidneys, while it acts on the stomach as a touic. It moderately accelerates the circulation, gently encourages the action of the bowels, and jniwerfully augments the unri oary secretion purifies and eleanses the blood, thus removing the cause of boiis, carbuncles, scrofula, and all eruptive and cutaneous dis eases ; reduces inllainotory. rheumatic and neu ralgic pains, and aches, allays innamation of the kionevs. irlands and fibrous tissues and joints, softens and carries oH gravel and other calculus ieHisits ci the urinary organs: cures Diabetes, Bright Kidney Disease, Lueorrhea, (Female Weakness.)

It is asafeand pleas ant alterative, and cures without depleting the strength of the organs or the tone of the gener al pystem. In other countries its reputation was so high that it gained the tii'e of "King's Cure."

It is said that Masonry is a rival of the church in its aims and teachings, but this is true only as it is true of the family, the school, the. ccllege the State, and eveiy other organization that has for its object the welfare and comfort of mankind. It is also claimed that our lodge meetings detain men from church at tendance, by occupying time which would otherwise be given to the church But the Masonic Order carefully ab stains from intrenchment upon times and seasons claimed by the church,and offers nothing as a substitute for sac raments, ordinances or doctrines. Nor is it true that Masonry deprives the chinch of monej. On the contrary, there are but few Masons who do not contribute, to some extent, money for the sustenance of the church. And Masonry declares that he who is false to his religious convictions is thereby false to himself and Masonry. There may be pragmatic Masons who are willing to make the order a stumbling-) hw-k to other organization but Ma onry is no more r sponsible ft r their disiu.i cu iuct than the church for the misconduct of her unworthy members. But we are not content with nega tions, for Masonry is related to other organizations in a kindlier and more affectionate manner. We do not mean that the order professes to go out of its way wiih unctuous promises of fellow ship, for Masonry promises the world but one thing: that it will mind its own business. But the make-up of Masonry, the principles and practical work of the order, are pre-emineutly co-operative with all organizations that have the welfare of man at heart. The order, especially in all new counties, is the efllcient forerunner of all organiza iot s as is proved by the facts of history and the nature of Masonic principles. A Big Wheat Farm in Pembina. A gentleman who came down the North Pacific the other day from gives to the St. Paul Pioneer Press the fol lowing interesting notes in relation to Dalrymple.' great wheat farm: The amount of ground sown to wheat this spring was 1,800 acres. Harvesting commenced on Monday with nine self-binders. The machines are run fifteen hours without rest, ex cept the ordinary stops for oiling.lunch and dinner, and the results jer day is ISO acres. One man is employed to each team.-a.nd twelve men follow the machines shocking the wheat as soon as it is cut. The entire 1.300 acres were to be cut and shocked during the week; stacking and threshing will of course follow. Dalrymple is harvesting his crop for about one-tifth of the cost required under the system in vogue ten years ago. At the time harvesting commenced it wjis estimated that the yield per acre from the entire tract would not be less than twenty bushels to the acre. Grasshoppers had done but lit le damage, the excessive hot weather came to late to blast the crop, and everybody who saw the waving grain pronounced big wheat farming on the North Pacific a success. The farm on which this crop was grown con3ists of 30,00' acres, on which next season there will be sown to wheat 9.000 acres, the sod of it having been broken this season. During the break-, ing seaon Mr. Dalrymple had as high i as one hundred teams at work. The' furrows turned were six miles long, and the teams make but two tripsdaily traveling with each plow, to make the four furrows, twenty-four miles. The location of the farm is eighteen miles west of Moorehead, Minnesota, in the promised territory of Pembina, and this is not the only big farm in the vi cinity, but is the -boss" farm of a dozen or more running from 500 to several , thousand acres.

Mad-Stone Capt. D. J. Uunce, of Mechanicsville, Cedar county, writes to the Iowa City Press of his misfortune in being bitten by a mad dog, and of his subsequent search for a mad-stone to cure the bite. He says: "I was bitten on Saturday, July l.on the left wrist, by a small dog, which I did not, at the time think was mad though I killed it immediately. I had no suspicion till the Fourth of July, when I felt a sharp pain start from the wound and extend to the back of my neck and to my face. This would last but a moment, and return at intervals, each time getting worse. "Having heard much of the virtues of the mad-stone, I at once made in quiries for one, and on Wednesday ev ening was told that a gentleman nam ed Turner Evans, of Iowa City, had one. At 11 o'clock that night I left this place for your city, but owing to the flood in Cedar river did not get through until noon the next day. "We learned that some years ago a Mr. Evans Jiad treated some cases in Iowa City, and by searching old news paper files it was ascertained that his residence then was Paris, Linn Coun ty. Telegrams were sent to Marion and Center Point, and I was finally put on the tracK to Paris, where I found Messrs. Evans & Co., who have the mad-stone. This was on Saturday, eight days after the bite. About five, o'clock p. m. that day the stone was ap plied. - The first application of the stoue proved that the dog which bit me was mad, and that my system was becom ing impregnated with the virus. The stone held on twentj'-tive mi utes the first time, when it was full, changed color and fell off. Another scarification was made and it wasaga'n applied, and so on until it had been ap plied seventy-three times, holding on each time from twenty-five minutes to one hour, until at la&t repeated efforts showed the remedy had done its work, for it would adhere no more, which is indicated by its failure to stick, and its change in color from a natural dark brown to deep green color. At the first application it was very painful, but grew less so each time un til the last. The owners of th stone, Messrs. Ev ans & Fleming, live near Paris, Linri county, and in the past twenty-five years have saved many persons from the horrible death by hydrophobia, and have in the same time rescued thous ands of dollars worth of stock from loss by the same cause. If anj'one says there is no virtue in the mad-stone, let him be referred to me and hundreds of others for proof that there is." Editorial Cares. Cleveland Herald.

Just give up and say that everything is played out, there is no business, no use to make any exertion, things cannot be improved and you will soon be just as dead as you think you are. Either run your town with a vim or' just give up and leave it. Men who are all the time waiting for a chance to get out of business or a town, will never try to build up either. One of two things should be done, push things find a way, or make a way to put some "go" into the business, run the town for all there is in it get up steam and keep it up, or else quit the w hole thing vamose the ranch, slide out, and let na ture have her way. Do you want trade? Bid for it. Do you want business men to come to your town? Encourage men who do come. Do you want to have a pros perous town where people can come and feel disposed to make homes? Then do away, bury out of sight all local differences, all jealously, all spite, work no more for a few individuals, but all work together for a common prosperity, and for mutual benefit. Wake up, rub your eyes, roll up your sleeves and go to work. Do not go to work with fear and trembling, but take it for granted that the work will tell. Leave results to themselves, bor-' row no trouble, but all united maker the biggest kind of a try. 1 - in ft . r h
