TO AVOID DELAY IN THE DELIVERY OF MAIL MATTER Postmaster Erickson has issued the following statement relative to the delivery of mail matter and how to co-operate with the local office in prompt and correct delivery: To the Public: Post Office, Bemidji, Minn. Dec. 19, 1908. At free-delivery offices, while an effort is being made to supply complete addresses of letters without street and numher, either by use of the directory or examination of other records, they must be subject fo inquiry and delivery through the general delivery. A trial delivery of a letter should not be af- tempted by a letter carrier unless he is reasonably sure of delivering it. Much annoyance and unnecessary delayin the delivery of mail matter, at this office is caused by the failure of patrons in not having their mail addressed properly. If mail matter should be delivered by carrier, always have it addressed to street and number, and when for delivery through box give the writer your box number. Itis thought that by following these instructions, it will prove satistactory to both the public and the service. ANTON R. ERICKSON, Postmaster. ADDITIONAL E. E. Gearlds went to Laporte this morning.

Devilgrams from the story of the “Devil.” He who spurns the good things of life has not lived. There is only one frue woman—the other fellow’s wife. Here’s the key to life—love yourself. David Belasco’s prodcction of “The Devil” is still receiving the unbated interest of theatergoers in New York, and the road companies have been playing to crowded houses in all the large cities of the country. The effect of the play is not al together pleasant, it is almost too brutal a realization of the wish to “see oursels as ithers see us,” and human nature has many impulses and weaknesses that will not stand analysis. ‘The play has been the talk of the country for tne past year, and the subject of critical comment on theartical writers, but a large portion of the theatergoing public is still waiting eagerly for an opportunity to form their own opinion of this un” usual and fasinating production. The rights to the authorized ver- sion of this play have been secured by Mr. Ernest Fisher, and it will be produced by his able company at the City Opera House, on New Year’s night, Friday, Jan. 1, 1909. 1909 Dairies at the Pioneer office, For Sale, Cheap.

Kelley of Laporte ; among the south-country.. visitors who spent Saturday nightin Bemi Every traveler knows that there are certain restrictions upon the introduec- tion of arms into foreign countries. Among the weapons which it is forbid- den to take into France is the “trom- ! blon,” which is expressly mentioned in the Bengal code as a weapon the carry-' ing and sale of which are not allowed. And yet the “tromblon” is not a fire- arm which is commonly - used now- adays, for it is nothing else than the blunderbuss, a weapon which old cari- catyres show to have been carried by the guards of coaches as a protection against highwaymen and to have been hung over his fireplace by John Bull at the time of the scare of a Napoleonic: fnvasion a hundred years ago. The blunderbuss had a flintlock, a short barrel and a muzzle like a trumpet, the bell mouth being designed to scatter the slugs with which the primitive plece was charged. Any one who buys one at an old curlosity shop had better take care how he introduces it into France, for the penalty for doing so is a fine of 200 francs.—London Chron- icle. - Took His Joke "Seriously. A funny incident occurred aboard one of our big battleships. While at anchor off some large city a delega- tion of ladies representing the W. C. T. U. came aboard and were much in- terested in all they saw. One of the visitors, spying the chit box for the ‘wine mess, which wag fastened up in the ward room, inquired what it was. A young officer, being facetiously in- clined and not for one moment suppos- ing that his joke would be taken seri- ously, told her it was a box for foreign missions and that the officers were al- ‘ways glad to have all those who came aboard contribute. Nothing more was thought of the matter till the end of the month, when the box was opened and, to the astonishrgent of all, was found to contain $12.30. The dilemma was overcome by sending a check for the amount, togethgr with a letter of explanation, to the secretary of the navy requesting that he have it for- ‘warded through the proper channel to the cause for which it was contrib- uted.—Army and Navy Life, Interpreting a Gift. A Philadelphia man sent as a pres- ent to his son and daughter-inlaw a gold eagle and with it the following letter: “The woman on the face of this coin is for you, Clarence, because men usually like good looking women. The eagle on the reverse, with the feathers on its legs, is for Lottie, becanse wo- men are supposed to like birds and feathers. “The ‘B Pluribus Unum,’ which you know is translated ‘One of Many,” means that of the many of them you would like to have this is the only one you get. “The thirteen stars, being an un- lucky number. indicate the hard luck many of us have in our efforts to gath- er in the quantity of these coins we really have need for, but, then, the forty-six stars around the rim tell you that by ‘working like ‘forty’ six days tn the week you can probably accumu- late enough to see you through'— Philadelphia Ledger. Vain Pride. “Well, how do you think this looks?"” asks Mr. Binderby, coming into his wife’s boudoir while she is arranging her coiffure. “How does what look?” she inquires in tones that are mufiled by some hair- pins she has between her lips. “I got this toupee to cover my bald spot. I'm always catching cold and”— “Why, John James Binderby! The very idea!” she exclaims. “I thought you were a man who was above such petty vanity. When a man becomes 80 self conscious of his looks it has really a suspicious appearance.” ‘Whereupon Mr. Binderby takes off the toupee and combs the four long locks of hair over his bald spot, and his wife continues to pin on the per- fectly lovely puffs that so enhance her beauty.—Chicago Post. ‘The Romans Invented Horsepower. The Romans, among whom agricul- ture was a highly favored occupation, were an inventive race, especially in the matter of labor saving machines, Recognizing the drudgery of hand mills, they invented those whose mo- tive power was imparted by asses, mules and oxen and introduced them into all the countries conquered by thelr victorfous armies. There is no positive record of the name of the originator of this improvement in milling. Dates and Her Birth. Officer (investigating old age pension claims)—Well, Mrs. Brady, and how old might you be? Mrs. Brady—Sorra wan of me knows, indeed, sor. Officer— Think, now. Don’t you know the date of your birth? gfrs. Brady—The date of my birth, is it? Sure, there was no such things as dates when I was born! —London Punch. Shiftless Mrs. Borrow—Our neighbors are very shiftless people. Mr, Borrow— How do you know? Mrs. Borrow— When I go over to borrow anything they never have it. Compensation. _ Friend—If your washerwoman charges by the plece, it must be rather expen- sive. Young Housekeeper—Oh, no! She loses so many things that her bills are never high! Source of His Money. “How did he lost his money?’ “His father-in-law failed.”—London Mlustrated Bits. He only is exempt from failures whe makes no efforts.—Whately. Too Much of It. QGreene—How does it happen that you don’t trade at Cleaver’s any more? You used to brag about the nice cuts of meat he always sent you. Is it because e wouldn’t give you credit? Gray—On the contrary, it is because he did.—Bos- fon Transcript. Tommy’s Lesson, Tommie—But, mamma, fingers were made before forks. Mamma—Yes, my {'boy, and dirt was made before ple, ‘but you prefer ple, don’t you, Tommie? 577" The Costly Brier Pipe, =7~ “People don’t understand brier pipe making,” said a dealer. “If they did they wouldn’t consider a five or six dollar brier extravagant. .Did you know, for instance, that a brier pipe after its completion is put away to season for nine or ten years? French brier is the best material for these pipes. It isn’t, though, brier, and it doesn’t come from France. It comes from — etymologically speaking — the ‘word, ‘bruyere, which means ‘furze. French brier is really Italian furze root, a growth of the Tuscan Alps. The plant is as carefully cultivited as tobacco- itself. All .the sprouts and leaves are kept well pruned; thus all the sap goes to the root’s nourishment. The root is cut when fully developed and boiled and dried before shipment. Afterward the pipemaker boils and dries it again. And when the pipe is finished he stores it away for further drying—a matter of eight years or so. The best brier pipe i8 one cut cross- wise of the grain, and the grain should be birdseye. Such a pipe lasts a life- time—can be handed down from father to son. Of course it's dear.” Only the Truth. A virtue carried to excess may be- come ridiculous, To such action one may well préach, “Be temperate in all things,” even in virtue. Amelia Opie, the English authoress, was not content with any half measures, as is shown In a letter from her quoted in “Quaker Pletures,” by Wilfred Whitten. Mrs. Ople’s course of conduct is to be re- spected as proceeding from her con- scientious. nature, but fiction readers may congratulate themselves that her opinions are not universal. Before she became a Quaker she wrote fiction. After her conversion she was asked to-contribute a story to a magazine. Her answer to the editor ran as follows: “Thou knowest or-ought to know that since I became a Friend I am not free to what is called to make a story. I ‘will write a fact for thy .perusal or any little matter of history or truth or a poem if thou wishest, but I must not lie and say such and such a-thing took place when it did mot. Dost thou un- derstand ?” A Famous Story. Every section has its famous story. A famous story that is being retold in Oregon is about a very rich banker who got his start by doing work for the government. His bill was §$5,000, and it had to be submitted to congress. Congress has a habit of cutting its bills in two. To make allowance for this he jumped his bill to $10,000. He sent the bill to the governor for his approval. The governor, having also heard that congress generally appro- priated only half as much as was ask- ed, jumped it to $20,000. The bill was then sent to one of the congressmen. Being friendly. to the contractor, he Jumped it to $40,000 and sent it to an- other Oregon congressman for his ap- proval. The second congressman jump- ed 1t to $80,000." Congress allowed the whole $80,000, although the contractor was entitled to only $5,000. This 18 told as a fact'in Oregon. The man who got the $80,000 got his start on it and is now a’millionaire.—Atchison Globe. & A “Lady” in Pepys’ Tima. There were worse terrors than the matinee hat for the man who sat be- hind a lady in the seventeenth cen- tury theater, as recalled by the Lon- don Chronicle. At least, we may sup- pose so from Mr. Pepys’ experience on Jan. 28, 1661, ‘when he saw “The Lost Lady” for the second time. Nine days earlier that play had not pleased him much, partly perhaps because he was “troubled to be seen by four of our office clerks, which sat in the half crown box and I in the 1s. 64.” But on the second occasion the play did “please me " better than before, and here, I sitting behind in a dark place, a lady spit backward upon me by a mistake, not seeing me.” However, it was all right, for, “after seeing her to be a very pretty lady, I was not trou- bled at it at all.” In Different Sets. It is but selgom,‘one imagines, that a good Joke is" made about an oyster. Edmund Yates, however, in his “Re- collections and Experiences,” relates one. “I was walking with Thackeray one evening from the club,” writes Yates, “and, passing a fish shop in New street, he noticed two different tubs of oysters, one marked ‘1 shilling a dozen’ and the other ‘1s. 3d. a dozen.’ “‘How they must hate each other! sald Thackeray.” London’s Bridg Few people are aware of the extent to which the city of London is-bridged over.. In all, it seems, theré are no fewer than ‘seventy-five bridges. Of these nineteen are railway bridges, three are bridges over roads (such as Holbotn viaduct), and fifty-three are bridges which connect private prem- ises.—Pall Mall Gazette. Placing Him. “May I ask you what your profes- slon is?” “Certainly. I cure people of the blues by hypnotic power.” “Oh, I see. You're what you might call a cheerupodist.” Mean. Maud (before the laughing hyena’s cage)—How provoking! Here we've been twenty minutes, and the hyena basn't laughed once. Eilla—Strange, and he’s been eying your new hat too! His Great Love. She—Darling, do you love me? He (kissing her rapturously and repeated- ly)-Do I? I wish you were a two " | headed girl. That’s all I can say.—Lon- don Tit-Bits. 8napped It Out. “Dear, am I the only woman you bave ever loved?’ “Yes, or ever will.” And it must have been the way he #ald it that made her mad. Her Little Slip. Departing Guest—We'ye had a sim- ply delightful time! - Hostess—P’m 8o glad. At the same time I regret that the storm kept all our- best people F " 8lim Women of Hungary. ™ The women of Hungary regard a small-waist as the greatest possible beauty, and they. will endure anything in order to put on an appearance of be- ing small waisted. Tight lacing'is car- rled on to.an extraordinary extent, and the waist s compressed by force until one would think that the owner could hardly breathe. Yet in this confined state the women will plunge into the | wildest of Hungarian dances, known as the czardas, and prance frantically like ballet dancers until at the end they sink, gasping, exhausted and well nigh suffocated, on a sofa. As they grow older most:of these slim beauties become enormously stout, and then they are regarded as quite old. The. Hungarians, though they resemble the Turks in many ways, have not the Turkish admiration for fat women or the English admiration for elderly made up belles. Hungary is a land of slim young women, and when they Mose their figure they lose their attrac- tiveness and their power.—Modern So- clety. “Times Is Changed.” “Yes, siree, Bill; times is changed since you an’ me was doin’ our court- n’,” said Adoniram Clover, with a note of sadness in his voice, to old Andy Clover, who had come over to “set a spell.” - “When we was doin’ our courtin’, Andy, a gal thought she was bein’ treated right harnsom if a feller bought her 10 cents’ wuth o’ pep'mints once in awhile, an’ if he tuk her to any doin’s in town she didn’t expect him to go down into his jeans to the tune of a dollar or two for ice cream an* soda water an’ candy at fo'ty cents a paound. My son Si tuk his ducksy- daddle to the band concert in town yistiday, an’ there wa’'m’'t a qnarter left of a dollar bill he struck me fer time he got home. Beats all the way young folks' throw the money away nowadays. I tell ye times is changed mightily since we was boys, an’ the Lawd only knows what the end will be with a feller layin’ out 75 cents on a gal in one day!”—St. Louis Republic. ‘The Innocent Young Thing. The manufacturer of a moving pic- ture machine was explaining to a group of acquaintances how he had ob- tained a series of pictures showing a celebrated massacre that had once taken place at a western army post in the days when Indian warfare was a horrible reality instead of an exhibit on a Broadway stage. “The commander of the post” he said, “had a detachment of soldiers and another of Indians re-enact the scene for us, dressed exactly as in the old days, so our machines could secure every detail—the onslaught of the In- dians, the defense by the white sol- diers, their massacre and the destruc- tion of the fort.” e B “It may be very interesting,” said the kindly citizen, “but I should not care to see it in even a picture.” The sweet young thing listened with wide eyes. “And did they really kill the white soldiors for you?’ she asked, breath- less.—New York Press. ' Two Arctic Enemies. Since the beginning of time there probably has been enmity between the polar bear and the walrus. Except for the walrus, bruin’s reign over the are- tic reglons has been almost unchal- lenged since the race of mammoths passed. All the hardy flesh eaters that inhabit the bleak, unfertile northland are his natural prey. But most of all he depends upon the seals and sea lons for his food. There is only one animal that is powerful enough to defend itself and offspring against the polar bear’s attack, the huge and cum- brous walrus, but its movements are 8o slow and awkward when out of the water that often it is impossible for the bulky animal to retard the swift attack and retreat of its smaller opponent—Frank Stick in St. Nich- olas. Three of Them Knew. According to the Philadelphia Rec- ord, a boy of eight said to his mother: “Well, there were only three boys in school today who could answer one question that the teacher asked us.” “And T hope my boy was one of the three,” said the proud mother. “You bet I was,” answered the young hopeful, “and Sam Harris and Harry Btone were the other two.” “T am very glad you proved yourself 80 good a scholar, my son; it makes your mother proud of you. What ques- tion did the teacher ask, Johnny?” “‘Who broke that glass in the back ‘window? ” A Real Romance. Sometimes there are instances in life like those in the story books: An Atchison girl engaged herself to a carpenter, thinking he was poor, and discovered on the eve of her wedding day that he had $150 in the bank. He had not told her, wishing her to love him for himself alone.— Atchison Globe. A Big Bathtub. The tides run out swiftly in the bay of Fundy. A summer urchin, witnessing the phenomenon for the first time, yelled shrilly: “Mamma, look quick! Some one has pulled the plug out of the ocean!” = The Roller. “A rolling stone gathers no moss,” remarked the proverb dispenser. “And, like the human high roller,” rejoined the thoughtful thinker, “it also gravitates downhill.”—Chicago News.

It was an official occasion, and I respected it. - Then they asked me to think over the mat- ter until the next day, and they would come again, And they came. And they said, “Have you thought of the thou- sand guineas and what we said about it, Mr. Whistler?” > And I said, “Why, gentlemen, why— well, you know, how could I think of anything but the pleasure of seeing you again?”’ And naturally, being gentlemen, they understood, and they gave me a check for the thousand guineas. ‘The Southern Art of Conversation. The north may think it knows some- thing of conversation, but the north, as compared with the south, may be said never to have enjoyed a conversation. About the village courthouse, within the hospitable doors of some central store, in the office of the local daily or ‘Weekly paper or, above all, in the lel- surely and genial intercourse around the fireside or on the inviting porch in summer of friend with friends there will be heard a conversation which in wit, in the charm and force of its illustrations and in the direct- ness and freedom of its criticlsm is not surpassed in American life today. It 1s the product of leisure, of a ‘world without haste, without ruthless Ppreoccupations, without those resources of expression and interest which be- long to the crowded and overweighted existence of the commercial city.

The woman was new to the country, and her host took great pains to ex- Dlain to her whatever she didn’t un- derstand about the farm. He had little regard for the truth, this farmer; he delighted to test her gullibility to the utmost. The cows seemed to interest her more than any other domestic animal. One of the cows had lost her tafl somehow, and this fact led the woman to ask why it was. “That’s the sour milk cow,” the farm- er esplained, with a straight face. “We always cut the tail off one cow in the herd so as to get sour milk fresh every day.” The woman looked her doubt. “It’'s perfectly true,” the farmer in- sisted. “You see, when the cow’s tail is gone the sun shines continually on the cow’s udder, and the constant heat sours the milk.” But the woman still doubted.—New York Sun. Fow Buried Alive. “It might be incidentally mentioned for the relief of anxious souls,” says Dr. Woods Hutchinson in the Amer- ican Magazine, “that the risk of any individual passing into a trance and remaining in it long enough to be burled alive is exceedingly slight. There is no authentic instance of this having ever occurred. I took occasion to investigate this question some years ago and communicated with a number of leading undertakers, and they all unanimously denounced it as one of the myths of the times. One of them, at the time president of the National Funeral Directors’ assoclation, In- formed me that he had carefully in- vestigated every instance of ‘burial allve’ reported in the newspapers for fifteen years past and found every one of them to be, in his own language, ‘a pure fake.'” Legs and the Alps.
