NO REASON FOR IT When Bemidji Citizens Show the Certain Way Out. There can be no just reason why uny reader of this will continue to #uffer the tortures of an aching back, the annoyance of urinary disorders, ‘he danger o diabetes or any kidney iils when relief is so near at hand and ihe most positive proof given that ihey can be curer. Read what a Be- raidji citizen says: P. M. Dicaire, 1237 Irvine Ave., Pemidji., Minn., says: “For fifteen vears 1 was afflicted with kidney trouble and I believe that it was :aused by heavy lifting. My back was extremely painful, especia‘lly when I stooped and ached so intense- ¢ at night that I could not get my yroper rest. [ had dizzy spells and «ften after stooping, my sight was Finally I began taking Toan’s Kidney Pills and the contents of a few boxes entirely relieved me. Since that time I have had no further need of a kidney medicine.” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, New York, sole agents for the United States.

An interesting discussion arose at a tecent college lecture concerning the “instinct of direction” possessed so marvelously by savage races and by animals. Undoubtedly animals are aided largely by scent. In the case of humans it is different, and some of the pupils argued that the primitive man is able to find his way in the densest forest without taking note of the sun. the wind, the lay of the land or the course of the streams. There- fore it was said he must be_guided by a sixth sense because none of the reg- ular five senses could aid him. Otber pupils, however, argued that the In- dian found his way in places where there were no apparent guides be- cause be knew how, because he had learned all his life how to do it, just as the writer, for instance, will write page after pifge of copy. spelling all the words correctly. but yet canngt if asked 1o spell a simple word. =This is because he learned the words long ago and his spelling is purely me- chanical. 1t is so with the Indian finding his way through the woods.— Cincinnati Commercial Tribune. Fiction or History. After all, fiction is not always the worst place in which to look for his- tory. There is a story of Mr, Disraeli at the time of his extremely bumptu- ous youth when he had just returned from his travels in the east As a young man, much under thirty, he met Lord Melbourne, who was then prime minister, at dinner. Lord Mel- bourne proceeded to discourse on the eastern question, but instead of listen- ing to the prime minister with the re- spect which he ought young Disraeli said. “It seems to me that your lord- ship has taken your knowledge of the east from ‘The Arabian Nights.”” Some prime ministers 1 have known would have snubbed the young man severely. Lord Melbourne was not of that kind. He rubbed his hands with great cheerfulness and said to the young man, “And a devilish good place to take it from!"—Lord Rosebery in an Edinburgh Address. Warming the Eggs. There was once an old lady in Scot- land who kept a few hens. As she lived close to the house in which a church minister lived he asked her to send him two new laid eggs every morning and he would pay her for them. So the old lady sent her girl to the minister's house every moning with | two eggs, and tne minister’s servant always thought the eggs were newly laid because they felt quite warm, as if they had just been taken from the hen's nest. But one day the eggs were cold, so the servant asked: “Are the eggs fresh today, Janey? They do not secem warm.” The simple girl looked at the maid and then said, “Ou. aye, they're quite fresh, only my mother could not get the cat to sit on them this morning, as it ran away.” Locating lcebergs. The captain of an ocean steamer in most cases’ finds out when his vessel is approaching an iceberg from the men down in the engine room. That sounds queer, but it is a fact never- theless. It appears that when a steamship enters water considerably colder than that through which it bas been going its propeller runs faster. Such water usually surrounds the vici- nage of ficebergs for many miles. When the propeller’s action therefore is accelerated without the steam pow- er being increased word is passed up to the officer on the bridge that ice- bergs may be expected. and a close lookout for them is established. There are natural reasons for the propeller acting in this way, and sea captains will assert the same thing. A Remarkable Shaw!. The empress of Russia was once pre- sented with a shawl of a remarkable kind. It is contained in a box only a few inches square, in which it fits eas- ily, yet when it is shaken out it is ten yards square. This notable gift was the work of some women weavers in Orenberg, southern Russia, by whom it was presénted. The box containing it is of wood, with hinges, hoops and fastenings of beaten silver. Trapped. “I saw the cutest thing today.” be- | gan Miss Passay coyly. “It was a { painting of the—er—what is the name of that little god that represents mat- rimony ?” “Well, uvow.” “you’ve got me.” “Oh, Mr. Timmid, this is so sudden!’ —Catholic Standard and Times. ‘sald Mr. Timmid, Force of Habit. A burglar went home one night, fum- bled noiselessly at the keyhole and let himself in without making a sound. He was about to creep softly upstairs when his wife appeared on the upper landing. *“Dan,” said she, *“‘wot makes ye come in so quiet?’ “Blame it,” bellowed the burglar, “I thought I was in another house!” —_— The Puzzling Point. Teacher—And did you make out a list of the nine greatest men in the history of the world, as I told you? Willie—Almost. 1 can’t pick out the best catcher, though, to save my neck. —Puck. A Taste of It. Missionary—And do you know noth- ing whatever of religion? Cannibal— Well, we got a taste of it when the last missionary was here.~Toledo Blade. § One virtne will efface many vices; one vice will efface many virtues.— Balzac. A Joke on the Artists. Some years ago there was # coiony of artists painting in a Maine village some twenty miles from Prout’s Neck. All were enthusiastic admirers of Winslow Homer, and all, having had a £0o at the painting of rocks and sea and realizing how difficult was the task, bethought them of Homer, only twenty miles away. How refreshing\it would be to have a glimpse of the man's ‘work in his stndjo! IFully awaré that it was not his custom to admit stran- gers, they ventured upon the pilgrim- age to that shrine. 'They counted on his waijving the rule where it con- cerned a group that contained .at least one full fledged national academician and several associates of that august: body. They all went to Scarborough (Prout’s Neck), put up at the hotel and sent him a joint note, signing thelr names and begging that he would re- ceive them. When the messenger re- turned they read with dismay that Winslow Homer presented his compli- ‘ments and begged to be excused from receiving “art students.” The joke was 80 good that the story was given out in artistic circles.—Arthur Hoeber in World’s Work. Mock Suns. Mock suns are similar in point of origin to the mirages of the desert, only they occur in the arctic circle. As the long winter night of the polar region wanes once every twenty-four hours a slight glow is seen at some point on the horizon. Often accompa- nying this glow is seen the phenome- non of the mock suns. Several de- grees up in the heavens as many as five of these spectral orbs have been seen at one time, Invariably they are all connected in a geometric figure, the suns seemingly bound together with circles and arcs of light. Often when only one appears it is mistaken for the real god of day. and natives rejoice at the early end of the long ‘winter night only to be disappointed as the image disappears. The expla- mation of the phenomenon is given by physicists as refraction and reflection of light from the real sun below the horizon on the mists in the upper at- mosphere.—St. Louis Republic. Crossing the Bar. Tennyson’s famous poem “Crossing the Bar” was written, said his son, in the poet’s eighty-tirst year, “on a day in October when we came from Aldworth to Farringford. Before reaching Farringford he had had the ‘moaning of the bar' in his mind, and after dinner he showed me the poem written out. ‘That is the crown of | your life’s work,”” said his son. who was the first man after the poet to read “Crossing the Bar” and who passed the first criticism upon it in | such fitting and generons language. | “It came in A moment.” said the poet, and he explained the pilot as the Di- vine and Unseen, who is always guid- | ing us. A day or two hefore he died the poet, calling his son to his bed- side, said, *Mind you put ‘Crossing the Bar’ at the end of all editions of my | poems.” Old Time Taxation. During the eleven years from 1695 to 1706 the Englishman over twenty- five who shirked matrimony was call- ed on to pay 1 shilling annually, with a further sum, according to rank, of 5 shillings for a gentleman and £12 10s. for a duke, a tax which yielded to the revenue about £1.000 a week. In these “‘zood old times” the Briton had to pay a tax when he took a wife and another tax every time he qualified as a father. Thus a duke’s nuptials cost him £50 4s., his beir £30 2s., and for each later male addition to his family his joy was discounted by a payment of £25 2s. The benedict whose income ‘was less than £50 a year had to pay 2s. 6d. on his marriage and 2 shillings every time he became a father.—Lon- don Standard. Wagner a Living Paradox. As an artist Wagner had unequaled genius. As a man, though generous, temperate and virtuous to.an unusual degree. he also had extraordinary faults. He was egotistical and proud, | prone to fierce enmities; he went to extremes in everything. A living par- adox; impatient, irvitable and nervous; noble and petty; never made a wman more friends and more enemies. He was worshiped and hated. Taken all { in all, musically he stands as the most notable figure of this age. — Dole’s “Famous Composers.” With a “G.” “Gentlemen,” said the lawyer for the defense in closing his eloquent and Impassioned speech, “all 1 demand for my client at your hands is justice— Justice with a large G!” The principal of the district school was on the jury, and the verdict was guilty—with a large G.—Chicago Trib- une. Many Sided Question. Miss Lonely—You ought to be care- fol, Kitty. Marriage is a serious mat- ter. The Maid (wifo has a proposal)— ¥Yes, ma’am; but staying single is a seripus matter too.—Columbus Ledger. Fatal Anyhow. “Won’t you try a piece of my wife’s angel cake?” “Will it make an angel of me?” “That will depend on the kind of a life you have led.”—Houston Post. | Out to Be In. Never be in your place of business ‘when a person wants to borrow money of you, because if you are in you will be out, but if you are out you will be in—London Answers. The grand essentials of happiness are something to do, something to love and something to hope for.—Chalmers. Saying No. The author of "I‘nt McCarty,” a hook of verse with a setting of prose, shows how naturally some of the Irishmen of Antrim dihite th¢ wine of narrative with the water of verbiage. In the ex- cerpt below—“The Way We Tell a Story”—the diluent is used with a par- ticularly “free hand: ‘ Says I to him, T says, says I, Says T to him, I says, The thing, says I, T says to him, Is just, says I, this ways.

It was Asia, through Arabia, which gave Europe the literature, the arts and the sciences which we have de- _veloped and of which we now boast. 'Gunpowder was probably invented in China. It was certainly introduced into Europe from Arabia. The finely tempered steel of Damascus went over from Arabia at the time of the Moor- ish invasion of Spain, and its manu- facture was continued at Toledo. The coppersmiths of Bagdad supplied the world’s market with their wonderful productions centuries before there were any industries in Europe. Weav- ing of silk and cotton had its birth as an industry in Arabia, and the weav- ing of wool was learned by the cru- saders in the same wonderful country. Astronomy, mathematics, the mariner’s compass—all came to us from the Arabs.—Argonaut. The Tramp and the Dog. Mrs, Suburb—Oh, my dear, that mag- nificent watchdog you brought home yesterday is gone! Mr. Suburb—Eh? Did he break the chain? “No, but an ugly looking tramp came around and acted so terribly that I let the dog loose, but instead of tearing the tramp to pieces he went off with him.” “Great snakes! It must have been the same tramp I bought him of!"— New York Weekly. Kills Self When Wife Dies. Albert Lea, Minn,, March 25.—J, H. Meyers, a boilermaker at the Rock Island roundhouse, committed suicide by cutting his throat with a razor near his residence when he was told his wife, who was ill, could not live. |, His wife died about the same time in the house.
