Fernandez, of Tampa, Fla., describing his fearful race with death, “as a result of liver trouble and heart disease, which has robbed me of sleep and of all interest in life.

BY OUR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENTS.

The husking of corn and the pulling of nubbins is the rule of conduct in these parts now. Say, what we want is frost with the coldness extracted. We wish to extend to our friends Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Gross, who were married a few days ago, our best wishes for their future happiness. May life as it unfolds to them, be full of agreeable surprises and may their path be decked with the roses of true joy and comfort. Remember that our M. E. pastor will occupy the pulpit here to-morrow at 10:30 a. m. Let all come out and encourage him with your presence and thus show that the premeditated doze of deception that has been circulated about D. V. is pure unfounded fabrication of the darkest hue. We want it distinctly understood that in all connections in which D. V., is a partner, D. V. always has bore its share of the burden. We as a people are not Cerfect in judgment, never claimed to e; but we are of the opinion that those whose ideas are of the transient kind should be careful that their province is not below par in a great many things. The management of the M. E. church at this place has/delegated to Aaron Claspelf the duties of janitor for the coming year. Mr. Claspell has made a couple of good suggestions in regard to much needed improvement, namely: A platform in front of the church and a hitching rack, which we are sure are very much needed.

He was a bright little lad and his schoolmates regret his death very much.

No Case of Pneumonia on Record. We do not know of a single instance where a cough or cold resulted in pneumonia or consumption when Foley's Honey and Tar had been taken. It cures coughs and colds perfectly. so do not take chances with some unknown preparation which may contain opiates, which cause constipation, a condition that retards recovery from a cold. Ask for Foley's Honey and Tar and refuse any substitute offered. Sold by A. F. Long.

FROM NORTH DAKOTA.

Hope, No. Dakota. Oct. 29, 1905. Editor Jasper County Democrat: Dear Sir:—l just received a copy of your paper. The Jasper County Democrat. It had the appearence of just coming from your office and it came rather as a surprise, but a very welcome visitor. I read the Minneapolis Daily, the Fargo Forum, the Hope Pioneer and the Stock and Home every day, but The jasper County Democrat, pleases me best. It is like getting a letter from home, I missed Mr, D. Vs. items in it, but I got a letter from neighbor Bert that was interesting, so that will do. Thrashing is not done here yet. I helped thrash flax to-day. We quit plowing the 27th. Saturday. 28th, it was 3 below zero, not so cold to-day but the ground is frozen 6 inches deep, and it is snowing to-night. It has been 56 below zero here for 6 weeks al a time some winters, so old settlers say, yet they say they like to live here where they can have good health, work, and spend lots of money and farm big. A man has to bundle up when he goes out of the bouse here in the winter. Fur coats is all the go, they cost from sl4 to *3OO. Crops are good in general in this part of North Dakota. This is Steel county: the railroad is not able to handle the grain fast enough to keep the elevators from being blocked. There is lots of grain piled up in the fields and covered with straw, besides all the granaries are full. Hope has four large elevators and a mill. The people here are mostly Indiana, lowa and Illinois people. I could go on and tell you bow farming pays here and bow it don’t, bow people make and break, how the hobo comes in and goes out, how farming ip conducted here, and so forth, but time and space forbids this time. So I will close; many thanks tor The Democrat. May The Democrat and all democrats live forever. Lee D. Wynant.
