No one knows when they’re ‘“‘up against it.”” They never make a ‘cry for help.” They’ll drink champagne outof a pail if there’s no glass handy. They don’t know what worry means; they fight it off, and their merriest hours are between mid night and 6. A. M. Still, they are hustling after the merry dollars the next day, and generally manage to land plenty of them in the “net”. Here's to the “‘Bobemian.” Al. H. Jester, a farmer living. just outside of Bemidji, has made. his announcement as a candidate for senator in the Sixty-first district, to succeed A L. Hanson of Ada, and he makes reapportionment the prin- cipal plank in his platform. Reapportionment is a popular issue in that district, for it hasa population of 54,682, about four times as many as Waseca county, which has a senator and a represen- tative all to itselt. Three counties in the district, Red Lake, Beltrami and Norman have each a population larger than Wasec’s. In geographi- cal size the district is second only to the Fifty-second. From Bemidji, where Jester lives, to Spooner, where Albert Berg, the other candidate, lives, is 100 miles as the crow flies, and about twice as far by rail. To Mahnomen, where Al Thompson, another candidate lives, is another 100 miles. But reapportionment will not be an issue for all the candidates up there, but its not because the people are not entitled toit. Jester has been active in public life in Bemidji, and this being the largest town in the district will give him a' good start. Albert Berg, who filed Satur- day, has the advantage, on the other band, of having been in public life, and been known before'-he ever moved his voice into - the district. IBY THE WAY. I A man never knows where he is atuntil he getsin debt. Women think they are “'real mean’” in refusing to speak to somebody. 1f they only knew! Only the selfish man who cares for nobody has a chance for happi- ness, and he is handicapped by hating himself. Courtesy between two people is geverally a mutual exchange of nothing. l quarter. | Peterson's. Sunkist oranges at Peterson’s. Miss Edna Wilson returned from a visit in Blackduck.

MILLIONS OF LIVES LOST An Awful Toll Collected by Consumption. Many Uunecessary Deaths from this Disease. If people could only understand that systemic catarrh is an internal disease that external applications cannot care, they would not need to be warned so often about this malady, whu:h when neglected, Ppaves the way ‘oftentimes for con- sumption, at the cost of millions of lives every year. Yet catarrh may be cured, if the. right treat- ment is employed. Catarrh is caused by a genera] diseased:state of the system which leads commonly to annoying and perhaps serious local conditions, which may prove a fertile breeding ground for germs of consumption, External remedies give but tem- porary ease. The only way to successfully treat catarrh is by employing a medicine which is asorbed and carried by the blood to all parts of the system, so that the mucous membrane or internal lining of the body is toned up and made capa- ble of resisting theinfection of con- sumption and other diseases. We have a remedy -prepared from the prescription of a physi- cian who for thirty years studied and made catarrh a specialty, and whose record was a patient re- stored to health in. every case where his treatment was followed .|as prescribed, That remedy. is Rexall Mucnu-Tone.. We are so positive that it will completely overcome catarrh in all its various forms, whether acute or chroric, that we - promise ‘to return every penny paid us for:the medicine in every case where it fails or for any -|reason daes not satisfy the user, We want you to try Rexall Mucu- Tone on our recommendation and guarantee. We are- right here where you live, and youdo.not con: tract any obligation or risk: when you try Rexall Mucu-Tone on our guarantee. We have Rexall Mucu- Tone in two sizes, 50 cents and $1.00. Very often the taking of one 50-cent bottle is sufficient to || make a- marked impression upon the case. Of course -in. chronic cases a longer treatment is neces- sary. The average in such in- stancesis three $1.00 bottles. Re- member you can obtain Rexall Remedies in Be(mdp only at our store,—The Rexall Store. Bar- ker's Drug Store.
