SUBSCRIPTION---$5.00 PER YEAR IN ADVANGE Lake City Republican: When the laboring man decides to allow his boss to have his way about running the business—he has reached a point in life where he is better satisfied with the world and its conditions than he was when he knew that everything was going to the dogs. Possibly this same argument could be applied to some of the tariff talk that is going the rounds of the news- papers. One of the brightest and best things we can give is kind words. They have well been likened to the bright flowers of earth’s existence. Use them everywhere, but more especially around the fireside; they will make a paradise out of a hovel. Nothing can heal 2 wounded heart, or cheer a crushed spirit like kind words. Let us not be so careful how we use them, for they are the great- est blessing earth can give. Every young man should remember that if his income is just a little above the expenses every day he will eventually become well off. If his receipts daily lack a little of mieeting his expenditures he will in time be- come a candidate for public favors at the poor house. Honest work at any calling, and such ‘economy as the case requires, is honorable; while idleness and spendthrift habits are a disgrace to anyone, young or old. The “good old times” you hear so much about do not mean the days when there were no plumbers, no gas explosions, no furnaces to go out of repair, etc. They mean the days when a2 woman could get a hired girl for $1.50 a week and the girl stayed with her for years. Life was a joy in those days.~—Zumbro Falls Enterprise. Don’t mention it, brother. The writer has been wrestling with the “hired girl” problem for several days, and we know just what those “good old times” are not. With a sick wife, and compelled to cook our own meals, most-of the time, we don’t blame the “domestic ruler” for being independent about entering employ- ment at “‘general housework.” CAUSTIC COMMENT. (A. G. Rutledge.] Theodore Roosevelt was 51 years of age, the other day. He will still be young in 1912. “My wife wont let me resign,” says Justice Brewer. This seems to be somewhat of an authortiative decree in favor of women’s rights. The sugar trust offenders are to escape punishment, according to the results of recent trials—at least in this world. Justice is not only blind, but is suffering from granulated lids. The farmers of the country have been so free in - their suggestions about railway matters that perhaps it is' only proper that J.J. Hill should have a few words to say about scientific agriculture. President Hill of the Great Northern, according to recent re- ports, was at one time forced to live for four days on elk meat, and seems to have held it a hardship. The people have been living on dear meat for ten years without a break. TO DRIVE OUT THE DEVIL Actor Builds Boafire and Jumps Into the Flames. New York, Oct. 30.—Believing that he was possessed by a devil Danicl Edwin Hurley, an actor from Provi- dence, R.

Prohibition Political Question.

DISCOVERY AN ACCIDENT Turned From Their Course by Fear of Marine Inspectors a Trio of Miners Flee Up a Tributary of the Yukon River in Alaska and Locate the New Iditarod District—Great Rush to New Diggings Expected in Spring. Seattle, Wash., Oct. 30.—How the tantalizing goddess of chance led three poor prospectors into the fab- ulous wealth of the new Iditarod dis- trict in Alaska was told here by Colo- nel George F. Cocke, United States army, commander of the military post at Fort Gibbons, Alaska, who has ar- rived from the Far North. Incidentally Colonel Cooke said that there are 2,500 miners working in the gold sands of the Iditarod river. He thinks the spring will see one of the greatest rushes of Alaska’s his- tory. This is the stcry as told by Colonel Cooke: “Three prospectors . started down the Yukon frem Gaines creek last May in a boat which they had hastily thrown: together. They took along a boiler which they planned to use in their mining operations. Having no desire to row their boat they rigged up an engine. Flee From Marine Inspectors. “On the way down they heard that the United States marine inspectors were on an inspecting tour -examin- ing the craft on the river. None of the prospectors was licensed and they knew their boat would be condemned as junk 1f-the eyes of the inspectors ever alighted on it. “Fearint lest the inspectors ecatch them they traveled up the Innoko river and when they came to a large tributary, which nappened to he the Tditarod, pushed up that stream until they could go no further by boat. “As time was hanging heavily on their hands they began to prospect. It was not loag before they found rich gravel. They staked out claims and ran their boat back to a trading station called Arvik, where they hought supplies and returned with as little delay as possible to the new diggings, keening their strike a secret. “News of the find, however, soon leaked out and hundreds flocked to the diggings.” LIKENS CANNON TO WOLF La Follette Attacks Speaker In Maga: zine Article. Madison, Wis., Oct. 80.—Likening Joseph G. Carnnon to a grim old wolf whose fangs are long United States Senator T.a Follette publishes another attack on the speaker in this week’s issne of La Follette’s Magazine. The editorial was called forth by Cannon’s recent specch at Elgin, Ill, in which he attemipted to read out of the Re- publican party Messrs. Cammins, La Follette and the cther tariff “insur- gents.” In the course of the article he says. A “The progrossives may well bide their time and laugh at the fulmina- tions of the czar of the house. Their time is coming. Cannonism is mere- Iy a survival. The stars In their courses fight against it and it is doomed.” THREE HOURS BEHIND TIME President, Greeted by Immense Crowd at Natchez, Miss. Natchez, Miss, Oct. 30.—Not since the day the battleship Mississippi vis- Jted Natchez and won the river speed record from this city to New Orleans has there been another such crowd on the bluff as greeted President Taft upon his arrival here on board the lightheuse tender Oleander.

Thayer’s illness is the resnlt of the bullet he fired into his head. DUELIST HAS SEVERE COLD Rain More Deadly Than Bullets In French Affair of Honor. Paris, Oct. 30.—The rigors of “the code fuello,” which will nct allow a combatant on the field of honor to shelter his bravery beneath an um- brella, are responsible for a serious cold which afflicts Henry Bernstein, the dramatist. Bernstein’s duel with Chevassu, critic for the Figaro, was fought in a drizzling rain on a muddy field and both of the duelists got a lmsre wetflng S “Rexall Store. " Bernsteln faced ' his opponent for the first shot and refused to fire in return, o The dvel resulted from Chevassu's criticism- of Bernsteln’s work.

THEY INJURE CHILOREN Ordinary Cathartics and Pills and Harsh Physic Cause Distressing Complaints You cannot be over-careful in the selection of medicine for children. Only the very gentlest bowel medi- cine should ever be given, except in emergency cases. Ordinary pilis, cathartics and purgatives are apt to do more harm than good. - They cause griping, nausea and other dis- tressing after-effects that are fre- quently health-destroying and a life- lasting annoyance. We personally’ recommend -and guarantee Rexall Orderlies as the safest and most dependable remedy for constipation and associate bowel disorders. We have such absolute faith inthe virtues of this remedy that we sell it on-our guarantee of money back in every instance where it fails to give entire satisfaction, and we urge all in need of.such medicine to try it at our risk. ' Rexall Orderlies contain an en- tirely new ingredient which is odor- less, tasteless and colorless. As an active agent, it embraces the valu- able qualities of the best known intestinal regulator tonics. Rexall Orderlies are eaten like candy. They are particularly prompt and agreeable in action, may be taken at any time, day or night; do not cause diarrohea, nausea, griping, excessive looseness or other undesir- able-effects. They have a very natural action upon the glands and organs with which they come in con- tact, act as a positive and regulative tonic upon the relaxed muscular coat of the bowel and its dry mucous lining; remove irritation, overcome weakness, tone and strengthen the nerves and muscles, and restore the bowels and associate organs to more vigorous and healthy activity. Rexall Orderlies completely re- lieve constipation, except when of a surgical character. They also tend to overcome the necessity of con- stantly taking laxatives to keep the bowels in normal condition. There is really no medicine for this purpose so good as Rexall Orderlies, especially for -children, aged and delicate persons. They are prepared in tablet form, in two sizes of packages: 12 tablets 10 cents, and 36-tablets 25 cents. ' Remember you can obtain Rexall Remedies in Bemidji;only at our - store,—The .

OUT OF POLITICS FOR G0OD Contradicts Expressed Opinion of the “Old Guard” That He Would Like to Be Reinstated in Old- Position. Denies That the Purpose of - His Visit Has Anything to Do With tha Case of Charles W. Morse. New York, Oct. 30.—Richard Croker, former boss of Tammany Hall, re- turned to this country for the. winter. ‘With election only a.few.days off the old guard expressed the opinion that the aged chieftain longed for the game again and planned should Tam- many lose next week to have Boss Murphy ousted and himself reinstated. Croker confirmed none. of these stories. Bright and fresh, looking twenty years younger than when he abandoned this city for his Irish farm, Croker smiled on interviewers on the Mauretania. “Out of politics; Why not?” he said. “Really, the question is becom- ing tiresome. I was active in public affairs for a long time. I will be in New York a few Jays and then go to my place at Palm Beach, Fla. I like 1o fish and I intend to fish. not play at politics, “By the way. how is the election going, anyhow?” Mud Slinging a Grave Fault. He was told all three candidates ‘were campaigning to the limit and there was a good deal of mud sling- Ing. “Too bad, too bad,” he sald. “That is a grave fault of our elections.” Croker denied that the purpose of his visit was to help Charles W. Morse in his fight to have set aside his-con- viction for juggling bank funds. “Morse is my friend and I may see him whilz I am here. I would do anything I could for him, but his fight Is for the lawyers. not a layman,” he said. -« Croker declared the outlook for rac- ing is better than ever and that he £till bas in his stables at Wantage some high class horses. He declared the report he was to retire because he had becn flesced by bookmakers and by his own trainers was absurd. “I will win another derby before I retire,” he said, “and Lam not so sure that the- winner of next year's big event is not ‘n my barn now." TO FIGHT THE HOOKWORM . John D. Rockefeller Sets Aside Mil lion Dollar Fund. New York, Oct. 30.—John D. Rocke- felier has set aside a fund of $1,000,- 000 for the purpose of fighting the “hookworm disease,” that newly dis- covered malady which has been called the "Vfln\p)re of ‘the South.” . Rockefeller also has selected a commi(tee of leading scientists of the country—otficially styled the Rocke- feller commission for the eradication of hoekworw diseases—to administer the fund and carry on the battle of the rejuvenation of the South. It is estimated that no less than 2,000,000 persons, hitherto supposed to bo lazy, “shiftless,” “no account,” are victims of the peouliar yet ghastly ailment. Medicnl resenrch in recent years has shown that cases apperently hope- less can be cured easily and quickly: that a coupls of simple drugs will relleve a victim and ordinary sanita- tion will totally eradicate the hook- worm in a neighboracod. - OPERA SINGER USES GUN Shoots and Probably Fatally Wounds Her Husband.
