E No. The Chiropractic and the Osteopath both aim to put in place that which is out of place, to right that which is wrong; but the Path- ology Diagnosis, Prognosis and Movements are entirely different. One of my patients, Mr. W, A. Casler, has taken both Chiropractic and Osteopoth treatments. The Chiropractic is ten times more direct in the adjustments and the results getting health ten times more thor- ough in one tenth of the time than an Osteopath would. m;&w‘“wm _— e ‘i‘%"3‘%%%%%&%%%‘fi*%%%%%%%%%%'%"&“i* C.

HITCHCOCK. intered In the postoffice at Bemidjl, Minn., a8 second class matter. Official County and City Paper SUBSCRIPTION $5 PER YEAR The ‘County Superintend- ent. The legislative committee of the state teacher’s association has drafted an act which contem- plates much needed reforms in the adminstration of the office of counhy superintendentof schools. The more important features of the proposed act are these: That some authority within the county shall be vested with the power to condemn all unfit and unhygienic school buildings and approve plans for new build- ings, such approval to be given before any building is con- structed. No school apparatus shall be purchased by any board before such shall have been approved by the county superintendent, The county superintendent shali be paid a salary of not less than $12.50 for each public school within the county, exclusive of the state high and state graded schools. That the county superintend- ent shall be empowered to call a meeting each year of the school officers of the county and one board member from each school district shall be allowed his actual expenses in attendance thereon. \ That expenses not to exceed $250 per year may be allowed to the county superintendent. These reforms are of great merit and should the act become alaw it will do much to improye the condition of the rural schools of the state, by making the office of county superintendent one of far greater influencein school affairs than it is at present. Early Action. Itis said that the supporters of Senator Clapp intend to urge a caucus of the republican mem- bers of the legislature early next week and that the Van Sant and Gilfillan men will oppose such a move. Mr. Heatwole, who also aspires to be a senator of the United States, is said to have denounced the plan to have an early caucus to settle the mat- ter of a successor to Senator Clapp, as a “damnable scheme.” If Messrs. Heatwole, Van Sant and Gilfillan have not enough votes to present the indorse- ment of Clapp in caucus it is not at all surprising that they should postpone the caucus. But for the best interests of Minnesota we cannot have a caucus and get this matter settled any too quick. Nothing could be better than that a caucus should be held the first day of the session and the election of some one made cer- tain. The legislature would then be able to go about. the business of making la\gs for the state, and there are a good many laws to make and make over. Many a legislative session has been made absolutely useless by a senator ial fight continued far into the session. The move for an early caucus isa wise oneand itis much to be hoped that definite action will be taken at once in the matter of senatorship. IT 1S reasonably certain that the legislature will continue the profitable policy of state drain- age.

The giant pine pressed aside the sturdy spruce or compared tints with the sprawling balsam, The trees locked branches and beat back the sun rays, so that the banked needles rustled dryly all summer and the snow nestled there until late in the spring. It is now early winter and no sign of earth or green can be seen underfoot, save where a ‘ “stamping’’ deer has uncovered | The ever- | greens are upholstered with | snow and inlaid with sparkling ([ a bunch of moss. jewels of ice. Beyond the “rise of the hill” |[§ would be seen the ‘‘bunk house’” of Craven’s logging camp and |j further heyond the rising smoke of several log shanties. A “tote” teamster, driving to town, was halted by a pale, bony man in halfstylish clothes. His accent was French and gestures likewise. ‘‘Any womans in dis camp?”’ “One,” answered the teamster, “‘wife of the camp boss.” “Good. ' If she his wife, good. How look she?”’ “Oh, she looks swell. She looks like one of that grade of calico that would love you an hour and then cross haul you with a knife. But what ails you —are you out looking for a wife?”’ ““Yes, sir, I look for wife—my wife. She make a run away, why I know not. For her I'm much lonesome. I find her then I find who it is she run with away. I find him thenI be glad. I will cut one deep throat. There will be blood on the snow. Is it|} not? There will be blood on the snow.”’ The teamster drove on. He shook his head solemnly. “I wouldn’t put up a red that the camp boss aint the guy Frenchy is looking for. The couple are a little too spoony for plain married scrubs,” he utter- ed 3 i ‘When he returned that noon he was at once summoned to the office. The “camp boss” was lying on a bunk, pale but determ- ined. “Mack,” he said weakly, “I want you to git back to town as fast as the devil will let you and pick upa cook. My wife made up a notion in a hurry to skin-out, s0 here is forty men hungry and mad ’enou/gh to eat up the bull cook, that don’t know to boil sour beans.” «All right,”’ says Mark, “but ‘what ails you? you look done up.” 4]-I- cut my foot.”” . “But, what have you got your For answer the boss emitted a volley of sulphurous, highly-sea- soned oaths. : The teamster circled the cabin, nurse.
