No city of its size in the state of Minnesota is receiving more effective advertising than is Bemidji —and what is more to the point, the advertising costs not one man in the city a dollar. We refer to the liberal manner in which the daily papers of the twin cities'and Duluth are covering the local field, from a news standpoint. The'dailiesof the three larger cities are daily printing “live” news notes from Bemidji, many of which are strictly “boom” articles, setting forth the advancement of Bemidji, in a conservative manner, to which no one could possibly take offence; and the common gossip and ‘“‘knocks” are eliminated in the matter printed in the big dailies. The matter used in these daily papers 1s written in the Pioneer office, and care is exercised that nothing but truthful statements are contained in the articles furnished the papers, and that the papers are not used for "nx-grinding" purposes, of a personal nature. The business men of this city, as well as every other resident, no matter in what walk of life, should be well pleased with the manner in which this city is being advertised, at no cost to anyone. CAUSTIC COMMENT. LA. G. Rutledge.] After a man has spent his whole life as the devil wished, it doesn’t look reasonable to us that be can lie to the Lord on his deathbed and go straight to heaven. In our opinion the talk of deathbed repentance has kept many from entering the “pearly gates.” When a man in search of a home or business location goes to a town and finds everybody full of hope and enthusiasm over the prospects of the place,- he, too, soon becomes imbued with the same spirit, drives down his stakes and goes to work with equal interest. That’s the kind of people we have in Bemidji. The good book says, “Give to everyone that asketh thee,” but that doesn’t mean to give a drunkard money to buy whisky; it doesn’t mean to give the baby a hammer and looking-glass because he asks forit, and it doesn’t mean that we should give to professional beggars who travel from town to town. The Bible possibly doesn’t always mean what it “says,” but it means what it means, always, if digested thor. oughly.! UNABLE TO LOCATE NEGRO Prisoner in Ohio Bastile Continues to Evade Guards. ©olumbus, O, May 24.—The hunt for-Harvey Johnson, the desperate ne- gro burglar who escaped from his guard Wednesday night and is at large in the- Ohio penitentiary, con- tinues; Johnson was seen twice at midnight running through the yard and shot at, but escaped in the dark. ‘Warden Jones sald that he will pur- chase bloodhounds to be kept in the prison for just such emergencies.

Miss Goldman was there as a guest of Alden Frceman, who a year ago made an independent campaign for mayor of Kast Orange and who is sup- posed.to have socialistic leanings. ‘While thé society women present were oo diplomatic to make any ex- pressions of disapproval at being obliged to sit at table with the woman anarchist there were many shrugs of shoulders and whispered comments. Mr. Freeman, whose wealth comes from Standard Ofl, in which his rela- tives built up large fortunes, was born next door to John D.

Parls, May 24—Notwithstanding the decision of the General Federa- tion of Labor to call off the strike the saeilors, stokers and stewards of the merchant marine have gone out at Marseilles, Toulon and Havre and the movement is likely to extend to other French ports. The grievances of these men are of long standing and have in the past resulted in a number of partial strikes. They include the nonapplication to them of the weekly day of rest law; equalization of sal arles on passenger and freight boats and objection to being paid off when a ship has been out of commission less than a month. Havre, May .24.—Despite the strike of men of the merchant marine the steamers La Lorraine and Chicago salled from here on time. La Lor- raine, however, left behind seven of her crew and the Chicago seventeen. RACE LINE FIXED BY COURT Ruling Makes Negroes White Men.

The negro was arrested in Montreal charged with stealing a pocketbook, but the charge was not substantiated and he was released. He brought suit against Danlel H. Brady, a New York manufacturer, who caused his arrest.

BHOULD GQ AFTER SINNERS |* Layman’s Advice to Presbyterian Gen- eral Assembly. Denver, May 24.—“Get out in auto- moblles, in carts, on the curbstones, anywhere, only be sure you win men; to the church,” was the advice glven the general assembly of the Preshy- terian church by John H. Converse of Philadelphia, president of the Bald- win locomotive works and a leading figure in the assembly. “There was a time when we of the Presbyterian church considered it be- neath our dignity to preach the gospel except .in the most luxurious ehurch- 8,” sald Mr. Converse, “but that time has passed. It is time now to go to the sinner and not ask the sinner to eome to you.” This doctrine Mr. Converse offered 10 RUlN MORSE Wiierof Convncted Banker|~ Makes Assertion. ACCUSES MEN OF POWER 8ays Government Officials Were In cluded Among Those Who Boastec They Would Cause the Downfall of Her Husband—Declares Everything Has Been Sold for Benefit of Cred: ltors and That She Is Penniless. New York, May 24.—Mrs. Clemen tine Morse, wife of Charles W. Morse, the former banker, asserted in an in terview that long ago persons high in power vowed they would ruin her husband and that they have kept the vow against justice and truth. Mrs. Morse declared that government offi- cfals also had boasted that they would cause Morse’s downfall, but Mrs. Morse said she did mot then believe the courts could be used as a party to the plans of her husband’s en emies. < “How many people know that my husband has paid every dollar owed tc every depcsitor in the Bank of North America?’ she asked, adding: “Of an indebtedness of $7,000,000 more than $5,000,000 has been paid and it Mr. Morse had his liberty he would not owe a penny today. It is inered- ible to me that a court can be used tc destroy a man's property and his fam: ily made to suffer.” Mrs. Morse said she had sold her Jewelry gladly to pay the claims against her husband and one claim against her which was absolute black- mafl, but which was paid to avoid notoriety. Practically all of the fur- nishings of the handsome home at 728 Fifth avenue, Mrs. Morse said, had been sold for the benefit of the cred- itors and the house was about to be sold over her head. “When I leave 1 shall have no home; I don’t know ‘where I shall go,” she added.

When the skin of an eczema sufferer itches and burns in untold agony, do you know what is going on within the pores of that skin? Myriads of microscopic atimals are gnawing at the flesh, breaking down the fine cells and’ causing festers, thick scales and that terri- ble itch. The germs multiply faster than Nature can throw them off, Now, there is only one way to get rid of these germs—they must be killed in their lodging places. Dosing the stomach or trying to cure the blood will not, of course, kill the germs, and that is why all .the blood remedies fail in eczema; that is also why salves which do not penetrate can do no perman- ent good. Ordinary oil of - wintergreen properly compounded in liquid form will penetrate the pores of the skin and kill the eczema germs. If properly mixed with thymol, glycerine and other ingredients (asin D. D. D. Prescription) this wash will build up the tissues ot the skih and promote its healthy growth, giving Nature a chance, while killing the germs faster than they can multiply.
