e IS DISEASE A CRIME? Not. so , vel long ago, 'a popular magazine published an editorial article in which the writer asserted, in sub- stance, that all disease should be re- garded as criminal. Certain it is, that much of the sickness and suffering of mankind is due to the violation of cer- tain of Nature’s laws, which, if under- stood and implicitly followed, would result in the prevention of much of the sickness and suffering of humanity. But to say that all sickness should be arded as criminal, must, on a little sober reflection, appeal to every rea- sonable and intelligent individual as radically wrong. ‘Thousands suffer from contagious and infectious diseases most innocently and unconsciously contracted. Other thou- sands suffer and die of cancerous affec- tions, the cause of which no medical man has yet been wise enough to fer- ret out and determine, and which can not, therefore, be avoided. Then too, many times stress of circumstances compel people to expose themselves to various disease-producing agencies, such as malaria, bad air in overheated factor- ies, coal mines, and many other situations, and surely those who suffer therefrom should not be branded as criminals. In-so-far as disease is contracted or brought on one’s self from harmful ex- cesses, over-eating, intemperance and other like indulgencies and debauchery, we think, with our editor friend, that it should be regarded as little less than criminal. On the other hand, we think it would be harsh, unsympathetic, cruel, yes criminal, to condemn the poor, wealk, over-worked housewife who sinks under the heavy load of household cares and burdens which she is obliged to struggle along under until she succumbs to the strain and over-exertion, and suffers from weaknesses, various displacements of pelvic organs and other derangements peculiar to her sex. The too frequent bearing of children, with its exacting demands upon the sys- tem, coupled with the care, worry and labor of rearing a large family, is often the cause of weakness, derangements and debility which the mother has to'bear and which are aggravated by the many household cares, and the hard, and never- ending work which she is called upon to perform. Dr. Pierce, the maker of that world-famed remedy for women’s peculiar {lls—Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription— says that one of the greatest obstacles to the cure of this class of maladies is the fact that the poor, overworked honsewife can not get the needed rest from her many household cares #nd labor to enable her to secure from the use of his “Pres- eription " its full benefits. Itis a matter of frequent experience, he says, in his extensive practice in these cases, to meet with those in which his treatment fails by reason of the patient’s inability to ab- stain from hard work long enough %o be cured. With those suffering from pro- lapsus, ante-version apd retro-version of the uterus or other displacement of the womanly organs, it is very neces- sary that, in addition to taking his “Fa- vorite Prescription” they abstain from being very much, or for long periods, on their feet. All heavy lifting or straining of any kind should also be avoided. As much out-door air as possible, with mod- erate, light exercise is also very import- ant. 1t is Dr. Pierce’s observation that many housewives suffer much in a weakened condition of their system from too close confinement in-doors. Often the kitchen, where they spend most of their tjme, is illy ventilated and the bad air and over- heating thereof act most unfavorably upon the woman’s strength, until she finds herself suffering from various weak- nesses attended by backache, bearing- down pains, or drag%ing'down sensations that are extremely hard to bear. A ca- tarrhal, pelvic drain, of most debilitating and disagreeable nature, is a commen symptom of the corgested or inflamed condition of the lining membranes of the pelvic organs, attended, perhaps, with tenderness an ?ain in these regions. Now, whiie all the foregoing disagree- able symptoms and sensations will en- erally yield to the faithful and somewhat Bersistenq use of Dr, Pierce’s Favorite Tescription, to realize the very best resylts from its use, the atient must, as far as possible, abstain from over-work, worry, and too close confinement in-doors. To such women as are not seriously out of health, but who have exacting duties to perform, either in the way of house- hold duties or in social duties and func- tions which seriously tax their strength, as well as to nursing mothers, the “Fa- vorite Prescription” has proved a most valuable supporting tonic and invigorat- ing nervine. By its timely use, much serious sickness and suffering may be avoided. The operating table and the surgeons’ knife, would, it is believed, selfom have to be resorted to if this most valuable woman’s remedy were resorted to in good time-+ The “Favorite Prescrip- tion ” has proven a great boon to expectant mothers by preparing the system for the coming of baby, thereby rendering child- birth safe, easy, and almost painless. Bear in_mind, please, that Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription is not a secret or patent medicine, against which the most intelligent people are quite naturally averse, because of the uncertainty as to their harmless character, but is a_medi- cine of known composition, a full list of all its ingredients being printed, in plain English, on every bottle wrapper. An examination of this list of ingredients will disclose the fact that it is non-alcoholic in its composition, chemically pure glyc- erine taking the place of the commonly used aleohol, in its make-up.’ In this con- nection it may not be out of place to state that the “Favorite Prescription” 6f Dr. Pierce is the only medicine put up for the cure of woman’s é)eculiar weaknesses and ailments, and sold through druggists, that does not contain alcohol, and that too in large quantities, Furthermore, it is the only medicine for woman’s special dis- eases, the ingredients of which have the unanimous endorsement of all the leading medical writers and teachers’ of all the several schools of practice, and that too as remedies for the ailments for which “Favorite Prescription ” is recommended. A little book of these endorsements will be sent to amy address, post-paid, and absolutely free if you request same by %ostal card, or letter, of Dr. R. V. Pierce, uffalo, N. Y. s Don’t forget that Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription, for woman’s weaknesses and delicate ailments, iS not a patent or secret medicine, being the “Favorite Prescrip- tion” of a regularly educated and gradu- ated physician, engaged in the practice of his chosen specialty—that of diseases of women—that.its ingredients are printed in plain English on every bottle-wrapper; that it is the only medicine especially designed for the cure of woman’s diseases that contains no alcohol, and the only one that has a professional endorsement worth more than all the so-called “testi- monials” ever published for other med- icines, An invitation is extended by Dr. Pierce to every sick and ailing woman to consult him by letter. There is absolutely no charge or fee for this. Every letter is carefully considered, fully answered, and its statements held as strictly private and sacredl{ confidential. Address as above directed.

B e SUBSCRIPTION 35 PER YEAR | Tournament Appropriation It is a regretable fact that the ‘condition of the city' treasury is such that an appropriation to aid in paying the expenses of the ‘Tunning team of the Bemidji fire department at the Warren tour- nament, 1s not warranted at the present time. In years past the running team has always at- tended the annual tournaments of the Northern Minnesota Flire- mens’ Tournament association, of which the local departmentis a member, and these tourna- ments have invariably resulted in much good to the imdividual members of the department, as well as to the organization as a whole. The tournament association of \the state of Minnesota have con- tributed to no small measure to making the volunteer depart- ments well organized bodies of fire fighters, and had it not been for the tournaments held throughout the state there would be one department out of a dozen whose members would know what to doand do it quickly in case of a fire. The months of practice put in by every running team in preparing for the racing events at the tournaments are not spent in vain; every moment spent by a fireman in climbing a ladder, coupling a hose or doing any of the other work that per- tains to a fire department, is spent for the betterment of the department and the beiter pro- tection of the city from fire. The local department now owns a banner which it has won for two successive years and which preclaims the holders the champions of the association. By rules of the association, the ban- ner must have been won for |three successive..years,::s0 that unless, Bemidji participates ‘in the coming tournament it will lose all title to the. banner for which it has fought &6, valiantly: It is hoped that.some plan may be formulated’ wlhe)i'eby the vecessary funds’ will :fbe at the disposal of | the date for tr The Pioneer Préss contributes ' Governor, , Johnson’s strengt & In 1904, the | was owinig t0 as bitter & fattional |dispute as ever afflicted any paxty.

The Duluth Herald says: : | . In response to. Congressman Attorney and Counsellor at Law Steenerson’s anxious inquiry as to who started the story é.boutl his row with the president, the Washington correspondent of the I New York Times comes to the front and frankly gives the de-| sired information. - He says iti was one Halvor Steenerson of 3 i Minnesota. State Engineer Ralph and his crew are at work south and west of the Great Northérn, rallway near Bagley. He expects to complete the topographical sur. vey of Clearwater county within ten days. The settlers are all showing a great interest in the work and lending their assist- ancs whenever occasiondemands. Drainage is and should be the watchword of every loyal citizen of northern Minnesota, but it should be used with some de- gree of care, or the outside world will commence to think that northern Minnesota is a vast swamp, fit only for the home of muskrats and bullfrogs. & ¥ CORRESPONDENCE & n l'n" REBEDEW.
