PRESCRIPTIONS A SPECIALTY UMD m O] Blindfold Buying The man who rushes blindly into the first yard he comes to when he buys lumber will never get round shouldered carrying the money he saves by such tactics. Those who reason that all lumber is alike because it looks alike, have several more guesses coming. There's as much difference in lumber as there is in shoes or clothes, and you don't buy those with your eyes shut, do you? As lumber is supposed to last a long time, quality should be the first consideration in buying. Your money talks here, of course, but what you get for your money, talks more yet, Our rule of quality first—then price—satisfaction always—doesn’t leave any chance of blindfold lumber buying at this yard.

But merely pure Olive Oil doesn’t insure “fine quality,” any more than pure butter means good fresh butter. There are three or four pressings of oil from the same olives, and all are pure because made entirely from olives, but only the firsf pressing has the full strength and fruity flavor of perfect Olive Oil. We know about these different press- ings. That’s why we sell HEINZ PURE OLIVE OIL IMPORTED It’s guaranteed the genuine virgin oil— the first pressing under the Heinz per- sonal sepervision in Spain, which in- sures not only quality, but cleanliness in making. If you like other Heinz Varieties, try Heinz Olive Oil. Phy- sicians often prescribe it on account of its superior merits. Money back if not pleased. We make a specialto of Best Quality in such cases. ROE §MARKUSEN THE RELIABLE GROCERS Telephone 207 Bemidiji, Minn. MUGH DOING IN PROBATE GOURT THE PAST WEEK Petitions Filed, and Dates set for Hear- ing Same by Probate Judge M. A. Clark. There has been considerable “doing” in probate court, the past few days, and Judge Clark has been kept quite busy considering prayers and applications in several estates. Application has been made by Helene Rhinehart of Grand Forks for appointment as administration of the estate of her husband, the late Charles Rhineheart, who died in Grand Forks last May. Mr. Rhine- hart was a resident of Grand Forks in Grand Forks. He owned some property in Bemidj. B | Judze Clark set Seetember 21 as the day for hearing on this application. Mrs. Aanie Thompson, as guard- ian of her son, Harry H. Thompson, a minor, made application to sell land belonging to Harry. The hearing B | on this application will be held later. Minnie E. Greenlund, wife of Ole Greenlund, deceased, has made ap- plication to Judge Clark to have set aside the homestead of the deceased, as well as some personal property owned by Greenlund at the time of homestead is a house and lot in the city of Bemidji. This application will be given due consideration by the court later. James Speelman of St Joseph, Mo., has made application to have the estate of his son, John W. Speel- man, deceased, late of St. Joseph, probated. The estate consists of 160 acres of land in the Town of Nebish. September 20 has been set as theday of hearing on this applica- tion. Morris Mark of Duluth is named by the applicant as the per- son desired to be appointed admin- istrator of the estate. Kate Audet, the widow of the late Peter Audet, has petitioned the court to appoint Ray F. Murphy of Bemidji as administrator of the estate of the deceased Audet. The estate comsists of a considerable number of collectable notes, drawn in favor of Audet during his lifetime. Letters of administration have been issued to Robert J. Shafer, in the estate of his son, Henry Shafer, deceased. < The estate consists of lands in Beltrami county, and it is altogether probable that the lands will be sold. . A peculiar case has come up in Judge Clark’s probate court, wherein a husband left all of his property, both real and personal, to his wife, by a will. The will was not pro- bated before the wife also died; and now the children of the couple are praying for the probating of the will and establishing the title to the estate in the name of the deceased widow, and later to probate the estate of the widow. The name of the deceased husband was Elisha O’L'eary-Bowser Co. Bemidji, Minnesota. New Store.

Omich’s Second Addition Placed on Market. . The great activity which is being shown in the exchange of city pro- perty has cansed J. P. Omich to place on sale his second addition to the City of Bemidji. Mr. Omich has decided to sell this very desirable property in acre lots, which will give purchasersa lot of room for their homes, especially for gardening purposes. The terms on which the sales are to be made are very liberal. The purchase price for the acrelot has been fixed at $125. Of this amount $5 is to be paid down, the balance at $5 per month, with-no interest for two years, = Mr. Omich has placed the pro- perty with F, M. Malzahn to sell. Located as it is within the city limits, Omich’s second addition is considered good property. Additional Locals L. Snelling went up the line of the M. & L. railway last evening on a business trip. T. R.Symons, local agent for the Minneapolis Brewing company, went to Turtle River last evening and swapped stories and “bought a few,” with Peter Larkin and John Dale, at their place of business. Thomas Taraldson and wife came to the city yesterday afternoen from the head of Lake Bemidji, where they have been spending the summer. They left last night for their home at Grafton, N. D., having terminated their outing here for this summer. Mr. and Mrs. Taraldson are liberal in their praise of Bemidji and her beautiful lake and health- giving ozone. Mrs. A. Burke, Miss Martin and Albert Valliere returned last evening from Portage lake, where they went yesterday morning to enjoy some bass fishing. Some conscienceless cuss stole the Burke family boat at Portage and the party were com- pelled to go without their bass angling. The sheriff of Cass county was on the ground early today, and itis likely that the soulless thief will be apprehended and meted out punishment according to the stautes in such case made and provided. Miss Kate E. Smith, who has been photographic printer for A. A. Rich- ardson for more than a year, left last night for Cloquet, wheré she will do similar work for her brother, Otis Smith. Miss Smith had become quite prominent among the Baptist young people here and will be greatly missed. Her place with Photogra- pher Richardson is taken by Andrew A. Lee, from Clear Lake, Iowa. Mr. Richardson has carpenters building him a wagon photo car, size 8x24 feet, whichlhe will use on his annual trip photographing Dakota threshers. Bids for Sale of 0ld Water Tower and Tank.

Chief of Division of General Land Office in the Nérthwest Asserts That Interior Department People of Influ- ence Were Unnecessarily Concerned In Expediting What Are Known as the Cunningham Claims. Washington, Aug. 26.—L. 8. Glavis, chief of the division of the gemeral land office in the Northwest, with headquarters at Seattle, has present- ed a report to the president in which he is understood to have attempted to show that high officials of the interior department have been unnecessarily concerned in the expedition of what are known as the Cunningham claims to valuable coal lands in Alaska. He also claims that in doing so they had acted entirely independent of the gen- eral officers of the department. The officlals are much incensed ever the report, but they take the position that as they are preparing a report for the president their lips are neces- sarily sealed against any outside dis- cussion of the subject.
