They are nice samples of the lithographer’s art, but are simply a medium of exchange.

Bennett, proprietor of the International Hotel at International Falls, passed through the city this morning on his way from his home at International Falls to the twin cities on a business trip. Mr. Ben- nett states that the local talent com- pany, which has been playing “The Parish Priest” in International Falls, will not come to Bemidji as they had comtemplated; that the expense would be too great and that some of the members could not leave their homes for the length of time it would take to make the trip here. And thereby Bemidji looses a good thing. £ Joan Richepin's Career. The story. of how he came to adopt a literary career is sufficiently plctur- esque. For some time he had picked up a precarious livelihood by doing ‘*odd jobs,” Including such prosaic oc- cupations as that of bootblack and casual porter on the Qual Marseilles. One day he was engaged by a gentle- man-to carry to the railway station a heavy trunk. "Arrived at the statlon, there was an instant mutual recogni- tion. They were old college chums. | ““What are you doing here?” asked his friend. “Carrying your trunk, I be- lieve,” sald Jean. “Why do you do this?” “Because I must” “Where do you live?” plied Richepin, The future dramatist took his friend to his dwelling—a miserable room in an attic In the poorest quarter of the town. Upon the table lay scattered heaps of manuseripts—Jean’s Incur- slons In the reaims of poetry when the more prosaic dutles of the day were over. Looking through them, his frlend was astounded at their quality. “Why do you carry trunks and blacken: boots when you can do work like this?” he asked. Richepin had never glven the matter a thought. He had never deemed these products of idle hours worthy of publication. Pub- lished they were, however, in a very few weeks and created an immense sensation. From that moment Jean Richepin never looked back.—West- minster Gazette. Each Got What He Wanted. “A hunter set out one day to hunt, and a panther get out at the srme time to eat,” sald the lecturer. “‘I must have a fur overcoat,’ sald the hunter. “‘I, sald the panther, ‘must have a dinner.’ “Some hours later, in a lonely wood, the panther and the hunter met. “‘Aha,’ said the hunter gayly, level ing his gun, ‘here is my fur overcoat. “Come and wsee,” re- ing behind a tree, ‘escaped unhurt. “Then the panther rushed forth: be- fore the hunter could reload. ¢ “¢Aha, here’s my dinner,’ said the panther. “And he fell upon the hunter and de- voured him, “Thus each got what he wanted, the hunter getting his fur overcoat and the panther getting his dinner. “ “And he shot, ‘but the panther, dodg- |- IN EASTBOUND RATES.

In gome of the culitons of Bwitzer tand they have speclal laws made for boys. Here 18 n sample-of them: “If a boy throws a stounc and hits a man he may be fined 8 franes. “If a boy throws a snowball and hits a woman he may be fined 2 francs. “If & boy calls a girl a ‘red head’ he may be fined from 2 to 4 francs. “If a boy throws at frogs in a pond without Leing ordered to do so by his father or teacher he shail be fined a franc. & “If a boy throws a stone and breaks a window belonging to some one else ; his father may whip him or he may be fined 2 francs. “If a boy makes a face at his teach- er or draws pictures of him en his slate or speaks-fll of him he may ba fined & francs and have to beg his par: don. “If a boy stones a dog or chases cat it 18 & fine of a franc. . “If two boys fight without the con- sent of their teacher it is a fine of 3 francs. “If.a boy steals apples or othor frult it I8 a fine of 2 francs, and he should be beaten by his father.” The American boy who reads the above will wonder what the Swiss boy | has to live for. About all he can do and not Le fined is to have the measles or whooping cough.—Exchange. Man’s Unwisdom. The slmplest and plainest laws of health are outraged every hour of the day by the average man, Did Adam smoke? DIid Eve wear corsets? Did Solomon chew tobacco? Did Ruth chew gum? Did the children of Israel make for a beer garden after crossing the Red sea? Did Rebecca eat gum- drops and Ice cream and call for soda water? Adam was the first and was made perfect from head to heel. How long would he remain so after eating a mince pie before going to bed? Sup- pose he had slept in a bedroom five by seven, with the windows dowm, the door shut and two dogs under the bed? Suppose Eve had laced herself up In a corset, put on tight shoes, sat up all hours of the night eating her fill of trash and sizzled her halr. When you come to look at the way a man misbe- haves himself you can only wonder he ever lived to get there. 'Verily, the av- erage man behaves as If he were little better than a' fool.—Woodbury (Conn.) Reporter. A Pony 8entinel. During one of General Custer’s In- dian campaigns he had a boy bugler with him who- was. mounted on a cir- cus pony he had picked up somewhere. The animal was not only full of tricks, but he proved himself & better sentinel than any of the soldiers. Three times in four months he saved the camp from a night attack when no other suspected that danger was near.. Upon one occasion the pony, who was loose and walking about camp, discovered a sentinel asleep on his post. That was wrong, and the animal knew it was, and he gave the soldler such a bite on the arm as caused him to yell out and arouse the whole camp. Pony and boy both died in Custer’s last battle. The pony had twelve arrows in his body ‘when found.—Cincinnat!i Commercial Tribune. As It Looked to Him. ‘One of the ladies in fancy dress was, though fair enough, a trifle fat, and we will not say that she did not look And there spake to her a reporter: “May I ask what character you rep- resent?” “Helen of Troy,” she answered. “What did you think it was?’ “Well,” he murmured, ungallantly enough, as weights and measures con- fused his brain and he gazed on her ample proportions, “I thought you wight be Helen of Avolrdupois!” The Dean’s Raiment. Dean Stanley was once driving with a friend from Monrcale to Palermo. Both men were reading. Stanley sud- denly discovered that he was shiver ing with a cold. He mentloned -the matter to his friend. “Well, hadn’t you better put some- thing on?” said the latter, pointing ta the dean’s bag, which was close at hand. Stanley thought it rather a godd idea, and the friend went on reading. As they entered Palermo there were shouts of astonishment. Stanley was placidly reading. His friend found that the distinguished churchman had absentmindedly drawn out a night shirt from his bag and put it on over his other clothing and thus arrayed was riding triumphantly into the city -~ London Sketch. % PILES CURED IN 6 TO 14 DAYS PAZO OINTMENT is guaranteed to cure any case of Itching, Blind, Bleeding or Protruding Piles in 6 to 14 days or money refunded. 50c.
