Selection—"Roly Poly’ Tone Poem—"*Apple Blossoms March—" ‘Churge of the Rnugh Biders®onniismsassis VOICE. Vocal Solo—Seclected .. ..........on Miss Ida Brown. Vocal Solo—""For All Eternity”..... Mr. Rood. BAND, March—“0ld Faithful”... Pro- In preparing the program, fessor Symington has selected a lot of “new stuff” which is certain to catch the ears of the music-loving public of Bemidji as no other con- cert has done. At the conclusion of the concert, the Bemidji orchestra will give a dance. There should be a large attend- ance at this concert, as the band needs encouragement and patronage, as we have a splendid musical organization that is a great credit to the city.

Doctor—Well, sir, you must re- member that you are no longer in your first youth and you must take care of your general health. So you had better leave off smoking; take no aleohol in any form and do not excite yourself in any way; do not— The Count—The mischief, doctor; what am I to do then? Nothing but congh?— Lustige Blatter. The Virginia Plover. The most wonderful bird flight noted is the migratory achievement of the Virginia plover, which leaves its haunts in North America and, taking a course down the Atlantle, reaches the coast of Brazil in one unbroken flight of fifteen hours, covering a dis- tance of over 8,000 miles at the rate of four miles a minute. Condensed. “Here is an article on ‘How to Live a Hundred Years.’” “Yes, and the whole subject can be condensed into two words.” “What are they?’ “‘Don’t die’” — Cleveland Plain Dealer. Not the Music He Loved. Mrs. Talkamore—Your husband is a great lover of musle, isn’t he? Mrs. Chatters—Yes, indeed, I have seen him get up in the middle of the night and try to compose. Mrs. T.—What? Mrs. C.—The baby.—Stray Stories. Well Named. “This is the parlor, eh?” tentatively remarked the real estate agent, who was looking over the house. “Yes,” replied the old man Kidder, “but 1 usually call it the courtroom. I've got seven daughters, you know.” If you m}ke money your god, "twill nlagne vou like a devil.—Fielding, _Silent and Dramatio, The most dramatic or silent men was Wallenstein, the antagonlst of Gustavus Adolphus and the command- er of the emperor's armies in the Thir- ty Years' war. He insisted that the deepest silence should reign about him, His officers took care that no loud cou- versation should disturb thelr general. They knew that a chamberlain had been hanged for waking him without orders and that an officer who would wear clanking spurs in the command- er's presence had been secretly pm to death. In the rooms of his the servants glided as if they were phantoms, and a dozen sentincls mov- ed about his tent charged to secure the silence the general demanded. Chains were stretched across the streets in order to guard him against the disturbance of sounds., Wallen- stein’s taciturnity, which made him shun speech, and his love of silence, which caused him to be Irritated at the slightest noise, were due to his constitutional temperament. He never smiled, he never asked advice from any one, and he could not endure to ‘be gazed at, even when giving an or- der. The soldiers, when he crossed the camp, pretended not to see him, knowing that a curious look would bring them punishment. English Sporting Parsons. To the London Times a correspond- ent writes: “Once when a duke of Grafton was thrown into a ditch a young curate who had been closely competing with him for pride of place shouted, ‘Lie still, your grace,’ and cleared him and his hunter and the fence at a bound. So pleased was the duke with the performance that he declared he would give the young di- vine his first vacant living and not long afterward carried out the prom- ise, vowing that if the curate had stopped to pull him out of the dike he would never have patronized him. ‘Sporting parsons’ are still to be found in almost every county today who can hold their own in the first flight when hounds run hard and some of the keen- est fox hunters in all times have been supplied from the ranks of the clergy. Even the warning against their ‘hawkynge, huntynge and dansynge’ in the reign of King Henry VI. appears to have had very little effect.” Only One Sea Power. In the audacity of puny triumphs nations are called sea powers, but there is only one sea power, and that Is the sea itself. “Far famed our na- vies melt away.” Within a hundred yards of the best charted shore stout ships are as bubbles. That sea that is as familiar when calm to little boats and ferries and tugs as are the thor- oughfares of a city to its crowd of humanity takes on all the aspect of chaotic terror when winds and storms prevail. The waters so close as to re- flect the friendly lights of the great metropolis are as allen to the forces of men as are the depths of the farthest ocean. Lord Byron’s “Apostrophe” has lost none of its tremendous reality in all the progress from the little wooden sailers to our greatest merchantmen and jronclads. Nor can its truth be lessened in all the maturest develop- .ment we can dream of.—Kansas City Times. Origin of Precious Ores. Men sometimes dream of enormous wealth stored deep in the earth, be- low the reach of miners; but, accord- ing to an eminent geologist, there is little or no ground to believe that val- uable metallic deposits lie very deep in the earth’s crust. Such deposits, according to this authority, are made by underground waters, and owing to the pressure on the rocks at great depths the waters are confined to a shell near the surface. With few ex- ceptions ore deposits become too lean to repay working below 8,000 feet. Nine mineés in ten, taking the world as a whole, are poorer in the second thousand feet than in the first thou- sand and poorer yet in the third thou- sand than in the second.—Chicago Record-Herald. Problems In Fiction. Reverence for decorum and even for social prejudices did not hamper the real masters of the English novel. It did not stifle in the cradle “Vanity Fair” or “Wuthering Heights” or “D}- ana of the Crossways” or “Adam Bede.” There are problems enough in all these works, but they are handled by men and women of genius, who treat both their subjects and their readers with respect.—London Stand- |- ard. How They Love Each Other. “Yes,” said Miss Passay, “he’s an awfully inquisitive bore. He was try- ing to find out my age the other day, 8o I just up and told him I was fifty. That settled him.” “Well,” replied Miss Pepprey, “I guess It s best to be perfectly frank with a fellow like that.”—Philadelphia Press. A Good Job Coming. Jeweler—How was your boy pleased with the watch I sold you? Fond Fa- ther—Very well, sir, . He isn’t ready to have it put together yet, but be pa- tient. I'll send him around with it in a day or two. Interests of All. One thing ought to be aimed at by all men—that the interest of each individ- ually and of all collectively should be the same, for if each should grasp at his Individual Interest all human so- clety will be dissolved. —Clcero Al They Deserve. - “Some people claim they don't get nuthid’ out o’ life.” “And they are the kind that don’t put nuthin’ Into it to draw interest on.”—Louisville Courier-Journal. A Rebuff. “Do you think your father would ke me as a son-in-law?" “Yes. I believe he would.” “Oh, joy! I"— “Papa and T never agree lbout any- thing, you know.” Feminine Nerves. There are nervous women; there are hypernervous women. But women so /| nervous that the continual rustle of a silk skirt makes them nervous—no, there are no women 80 nervous as that! Her Purse and His Handkerchief. “The thoughts of youth are long, long thoughts.” The other day a young woman who had dropped her purse, full of pay money for the corps of girls under her charge, considered the thoughts of youth to be. rather too “long.” : She was In one of the large depart- ment stores, and as her hands were occupied she let her purse lle for a few moments where it had fallen. But her eye was on it. In the meantime a bright little fellow not more than nine or ten years okl left his parents near by and deftly covered the purse with a handkerchief. The woman, who Is a perfectly self possessed young person, could hardly belleve her eyes, but she waited to see what the boy would do. Just as he was stooping to his prize she placed her foot- quietly upon it. The young: ster slipped back without a word to the well dressed “respectable” people with whom he was. Then the woman picked up her purse and, taking the handkerchief over to the lad, handed it to him, saying, “There {8 no reason why you should lose your handkerchief just because you_didn’t get my purse!”—New York Post. Too Good to Miss. “Theater audiences have improved in recent years,” sald a manager. “Why, with provinelal touring compa- nies in the past maltreatment was reg- ularly expected. In fact, the compa- nies profited by it in more ways than one. “I know of a company that was playing ‘The Broken Vow’ in Paint Rock, a one night stand. The audience didn’t like ‘The Broken Vow, and eggs, cabbages and potatoes rained up- on the stage. “Still the play went on. The hero raved through his endless speeches, dodging an onion or a baseball every other minute and pretty sore from those missiles that he hadn’t been able to dodge. “But finally a gallery auditor in a paroxysm of rage and scorn hurled a heavy boot, and the actor, thoroughly alarmed, started to retreat. “‘Keep on playing, you fool, hissed the manager from the wings as he hooked in the boot with an umbrella. “Keep on till we get the other one.’” How a Tree Grows. Both earth and air are required for the growth of a plant or tree. The roots absorb molsture from the soil, which, in the form of a watery fluid called common sap, rises through the fibers of the last deposited annular ring, traversing all the branches and leaf stalks until it reaches the leaves; there it undergoes a change by the absorption of carbonic acid frow the air. It then travels downward again in the form of proper sap, just under- neath the bark, which is expanded by the accession of moisture and in the cavity so formed a nmew layer of ma- terial is deposited which gradually hardens and forms a new annular ring. And so, from absorbing the moisture and minerals of the soil and the carbonic acid of the air the tree goes on until it finishes its cycle and dies—New York American.
