The fall term of Aagastana college closed Wednesday of this week, and the winter term begins Wednesday of next week.

A. E.Cox.a prosperous yonng farmer, who lives 6 miles coath of Worthing, was in town Tuesday. He says his Canton mail goes west to Parker and then down 10 Beresford and north 12 miles or within 6 miles of Worthing in order to reach him by rural delivery. This is about as stupid a piece of rural route service as one can posssibly figure out, and should be changed at once. Just why Worthing stands such an outrage is past explanation. A rural route from Worthing going 3 miles, thence south 10 miles and 2 or 8 milep thence north and east to starting point would make a good route and serve a great many people. Such a route can be secured if Worth­ing goes after it.

Frank Keller of Dead wood was in Canton Tuesday. It is 22 years since he was here last and he didn't find many Cantonites who ware residents when he and seven others left for the Black Hills in 1877. Frank was the youngest in the—party, and all got through to the Deadwood without ser­ious trouble from the Indians. Frank has prospered in the Hills, and his old friends in Canton were glad to see him, but not many recognized bim at first. He said he would liked to have seen Charlie South, but his time was limit­ed. He came down from Aberdeen where he had been as a United States juror at the recent term of court.

—Dr. Noid has just secured a large consignment of Avenarius Carbolineum, a preparation that will preserve wood in the ground for many years.

I Cure Women v None bot the Specialist Can Thoroughly Understand and Sneeessfolly

Treat the Diseases Peculiar to Women.

For the past 15 years I have made these diseases my specialty and it matters not how often you have failed in receiving a cure or how many patent medicines you have used without benefit, I can cure you.

You will find that my methods are entirely different from any you have ever used. I go to the foundation of your trouble and remove the cause. This is the only way you can expect to receive a permanent cure. It matters not where you live, I can treat you. While I al­ways prefer an offlce call I can treat your trouble successfully by mail. I do not charge you anything for consultation either in person or by mail. I am anxious to cure all ailing women; let me cure you, come to my office or write me a description of your trouble, and I will explain my methods to you. I want es­pecially to hear from women who have trouble with the womb, back ache, head ache, painful menstruation, pain in the groins, bearing down pains, falling of the womb, leucorrhea (whites), stomach trouble, rheumatism, skin affections, kidney trouble, any disease of thfe urinary organs. In all of the above troubles I will guarantee to give a permanent cure or give you back every penny you have paid me. The least you can do is to investigate my methods, if you are living too far, so that you cannot call at my office, write me in regard to yourself and I will make a study of your case, and write you fully how to be cured. If you can call at my offlce do so, a confidential talk with me costs you nothing and if you conclude to place your case in my hands for treatment, you will find that my charges are reasonable. Every sick wom­an who earnestly desires to become well and strong should call at my office or write me a letter. It will cost you nothing to find out by what method I in­tend to cure you. I urge you to attend to your case at once, before it becomes worse. During my fifteen years of practice, I have made a special study of these diseases and have developed an entirely new system for treating them. You can depend on my understanding your case and the result will be a cure.

My offlce hours are from 9 to 12, 2 to 5 and 7 to 9. Sundays 10 to 1.

Consult me and you will never regret it.
