Monday afternoon nearly all of the business of the term was completed and the court called attention to the fact and stated that an adjournment would be taken until March 28, when At- torney Kling arose and advised the court that there was one more matter which he desired to get before it. After a short speech in which he paid the judge many handsome compli- ments he read the following reso- lution, signed by the members of the bar of Morrison county: _ lence of the Pioneer makes the - advertisementsalmost as eagerly looked for as the news items.

You can exist without good blood, but can never be robust and strong ; for every organ, tissue and nerve in the body looks to the blood for nourishment, and unless this vital fluid is kept in a pure, healthy state, the rest of the body suffers and the system soon breaks down.
