The reformers should start with the “old man.” The fact that Minneapolis has six hundred cases of typhoid fever would suggest that the citizens should not only boil their water, but burn it.—Wisconsin State Journal. A pair of good shoes will produce more misery, suffering, disappoint- ment, disgust and swearing in a given length of time than any other article of wearing apparel. A pair of good shoes cost no more, wear longer and retain their elasticity and shape to the very end. What’s the moral? BACK TO SANITY. The Northern Minnesota Confer- ence at Bemidji did well to declare for a return to sainty in agricultural education. For some two years the state has been fairly mad on this subject and has proposed to establish agricultural schools supported by the state in every town, most of the methods proposing to violently drag the boys and girls from the farm, hurry them into town and there teach them how to farm it. The resolutions adopted at Be- midji recently eliminate all this nonsense and ask for schools that shall be placed in the country and that shall be so conducted that the farmer’s boy and the farmer’s girl shall be persuaded to stay on the farm rather than tempted from it.— Hibbing Tribune. BY THE WAY | A dark brown taste in the mouth is never done in watercolors. There is no woman who does not depend on some man for her inspira- tion, If a man can manage to anoy you, he can feel that he has not striven in vain. The goodness of some men is mainly due to lack of opportunity. The ideal time for the world to come to an end is during Lent, when everybody is good. Additional Locals Hetland & Fallon’s millinery opening Wednesday, March 16th, bath rooms in connection with their barber shop, and the same are now ready for use. W. H. Newton went to Minne- apolis this morning. C. W. Conway, the Blackduck sawmill man, was a business visitor in Bemidji today. Dr. Warninger, the local veterinar- ian, returned this morning from a professional trip to Kelliher, where he spent Sunday. R. C. Spooner and wife were in the city Saturday from their home at Deer Lake. Both are enjoying fine health, these days. The Methodist Ladies’ Aid will meet at the home of Mrs. Minnick, 1013 Irving avenue, on Wednesday afternoon. Visitors are invited. Mrs. D. Gill is at St. Paul visit- ing with friends, and Dave is forced to put up with “hotel grub” until his “better half” returns from the “Saintly City,” which will be in a few days. Professor J. H. Hay, principal of the Thief River Falls schools, was a business visitor in Bemidji last Saturday. It is more than likely that Professor Hay may be a more frequent visitor in Bemidji, at no great lapse of time. E. C. McGregor went to Walker this morning for the purpose of go- ing to the Northland Pine com- pany’s camps, east of Leech lake. Mr. McGregor believes that this will be about his last trip to that section, because the mild weather will speedily terminate logging oper- ations for this season. Frank Tibbets, one of the pioneer residents of Cass Lake, spent several hours in Bemidji yesterday, return- ing home on the noon train. Mr. Tibbetts intimated that he would, in all probability, move to Bemidji in afew days and make his home in this city. He’s a good fellow; and that’s the kind of citizens Be- midji wants. E. D. McKim of Pitt arrived in the city Saturday and will here- after be a member of Professor Harry Masten’s band and orchestra. Mr. McKim is a flute and clarionet player of acknowledged ability; and he comes well recommended. With his usual hustling, Mr. Masten is always on the outlook for first-class players, and it was while scouring this section of the state that he “met up” with Mr. McKim and in- duced him to come to Bemidji and locate. Mr, and Mrs. J. F. Burns, who now live in the Canadian- North- west, departed last night for their home, going by way of Grand Forks, N. D., and thence north- ward and westward—a long jour- ney. They went to International Falls, with the intention of cross- ing the Rainy river and going to Saskatchewan by the way ot Ft. Francis and Winnipeg, butbecause of a smallpox scare, the customs officials would not allow them to cross the river into Canada, at that point, and they were forced to return to Bemidji and go home in a roundabout way, Mr. Burns is now a locomotive foreman for the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway company, and resides at Melville, Saskatchewan, PATTEN SAILS FOR HOME English Press Has No Sympathy for Chicago Speculator. London, March 14—James A. Pat ten, the Chicago speculator, who was Jostled and driven out of the Man- chester Cotton Exchange, sailed from Liverpool for New York on board the steamer Mauretania. The English press, generally strong Dennis & Peterson have put inl for law and order, extends no sym- pathy for Mr. Patten in his Manches- ter experience. The Westminster Ga- zette says: “We are glad that the American cotton king got out of the Manchester exchange with nothing worse than some hustling and hooting, but cannot profess any sympathy for his wounded feelings.” The paper expresses astonishment that Patten had the “impudence,” con- sidering the injury which his opera- tions had done to the Lancashire cot- ton industries, to presume on the courtesy generally accorded visitors from across the Atlantic. To Stamp Out the Black Hand. Chicago, March 14.—Chicago will spend more than $30,000 a year to stamp out the Black Hand if an ordi- nance drawn by Asistant Corporation Counsel Day, on the suggestion of Chief of Police Leroy T. Steward, passes the city council. Bishop Spellmayer Dies Suddenly. Atlantic City, N. J, March 14— Bishop Henry W. Spellmayer of St. Louls, who was here presiding over the annual New Jersey Methodist Eplscopal conference, died suddenly at the Hotel Dennis. Death was due to heart disease.

Be Without Warrant of Law and Along the Lines Lald Down by Roosevelt in the Anthracite Coal Strike—No Change in: General Sit- uation in Past Few Days. Philadelphia, March 14—With the federal government interested, the National Civic Federation appealed to for its assistance and nearly every lo- cal trade and other organization aroused to action, all Philadelphia hopes that the general movement to end the big labor conflict will bring about the desired result. This was the twenty-second day of the street car strike and neither side to the con- troversy showed any disposition to yleld. All the plans so far devised call for arbitration. The striking car men are willing to submit their grievances to impartial judges, but the directors of the Philadelphia Rapid Transit com- pany have repeatedly declared that they have conceded as much as they intend to along that line. = The belief is general that if Presi- dent Taft should see his way clear to attempt to bring about peace a plan may be found that will bring the war- ring elements together. There is no law under which the president can act, as interstate commerce is not in- volved, and whatever steps he may take probably would be along the lines President Roosevelt laid’ down when he intervened in the anthracite coal strike in 1902. There has been little change during the last few days in the genera: strike situation. The number of men who ‘went out in response to the walkout is still in dispute, but the number is no doubt larger. The strike leaders say they look for no break and express confidence that the men who went out in sympathy with the carmen will stand firm. The committee of ten has announced that if the car strike is not ended within forty-eight hours a general movement will be started among the men who obeyed the general strike order to de- mand better conditions in their va- rious occupations. How far this movement will go cannot be predicted. Must Not Operate on Sunday. Newecastle, Pa., March 14.—Upon the promise of the company to refrain from running cars on Sunday rights of way have been granted by the vari- ous boroughs through which it will pass for a new trolley line from hera to Sharon, by way of New Wilmington. The road will cost $1,000,000, accord- ing to the engineer’'s estimates, and much of the stock is held by minis- ters and churches of the various com- munities. Legislator Is Threatened. New York, March 14—Assembly- man James J. Walker of the Fifth assembly district has received a letter in which he is warned that he will be murdered unless he abandons a bill which he has introduced in the legis- lature to amend the domestic rela tions law so as to prohibit marriage “between the white or Caucasian racc and the black or negro race.” KEEP THE KIDNEYS WELL, Health is Worth Saving, and some Be- midji People Know How to Save It. Many Bemidji people take their lives in their hands by neglecting the kidneys when they know these organs need help, Sick kidneys are responsible for a vast amount of suftering and ill health, but there is no need to suffer nor to remain in danger when all diseases and aches and pains due to weak kidneys can be quickly and per- manently cured by the use of Doan’s Kidney Pills, Here i1s a Bemidji citizen’s recommendation. Mrs. Ella Barrett, Sixth and American Sts., Bemidji, Minn., says: “I used Doan’s Kidney Pills and was well pleased with the results, I was very nervous and at times had dull pains in the small of my back, accompanied by an ache across my kidoeys. These organs did not act properly and caused me much discomfort. I decided to try a kidney remedy and procured a box of Doan’s Kidney Pills at the Owl Drug Store. In a short time after us- ing them I felt a great deal better and am now in fairly good health, I have no hesitation in recommend- ing Doan’s Kidney Pills.” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, New York, sole agents for the United | States. Remember the name—Doan’s— and take no other. It is worse than useless to attempt to cure constipation with cathartic drugs. Laxatives or cathartics do much harm, They cause a reaction, irritate and weaken the bowels and tend to make constipation more chronic. Besides, their use becomes a habit that is dangerous. Constipation is caused by a weak- ness of the nerves and muscles of the large intestine or descending colon. To expect permanent relief you must therefore tone up and strengthen these organs and restore them to healthier activity. The discovery of the active prin- ciple of our remedy involved the la- bor of the world’s greatest research chemists. As an active agent it pos- sesses the valuable qualities of the best known intestinal tonics as well as being particularly pleasant and prompt in its results. We want you to try Rexall Or- derlies on our recommendation. They are exceedingly pleasant to take, being eaten like candy, and are ideal for children, delicate per- sons and old folks, as well as for the robust. They act directly on the nerves and muscles of the bowels. They apparantly ~have a neutral action on other associate organs or glands. They do not purge, cause excessive looseness mor create any inconvenience whatever. They may be taken at any time, day or night. They will positively relieve chronic or habitual constipation, if not of surgical variety, and the myriads of associate or dependent chronic ailments, if taken with regu- larity for.a reasonable length of time. They come in two sizes of packages, 12 tablets, 10 cents; 36 tablets, 25 cents. Sold in Bemidiji only at our store,—The Rexall Store. Barker’s Drug Store. Hot Wave Coming? Heat melts ice—people too.
