PPOOVVIPPVPVPPPVOVOVDD PPV PPIPPDPIPPPPVOOHOOPOOO O PPPPOOPOOOOOO® Q@ HOW ABOUT AMUSEMENTS ? How long is Bemidji—progressive, enterprising, wideawake Bemidji— going to continue to be a dead one in the line of public amusements? Must we continue to sit through win- ters enlivened only by a few select dances, a performance of Uncle Tom’s Cabin and a few mediocre shows which accidentally hit the town? Isn't Bemidji large enough to de- mand at least a series of good lec- tures, a pretty play, now and then, that is worth the time and money? CREMATION. In a contribution to a Minneapolis newspaper, Maria Sanford, formerly a member of the University of Min- nesota, has the following to say of the disposition of dead human bod- ies: “When we consider the possible and probable consequences of inter- ring year after ‘year the large num- ber of persons who die in a ecity of the size of Minneapolis, even though it is one of the healthiest cities in the world, the question is forced home upon all considerate persons, ‘Is it right to continue the present cus- tom?” “In Lakewood, one of the most re- cent burial places, there are already over twenty thousand interments. Five hundred or more acres are set apart for burial grounds in Minne- apolis alone. “Toward most of these the city is stretching out and even surrounding them; and, as one physician has said, ‘Every acre is a storehouse of disease from which are emanating in in- creasing degree as it becomes more crowded, pestilential streams and pes- tilential vapors to contaminate the living. It is only when epidemics occur that record is made of the bale- ful effects. But who cannot recall cases of some contagious disease which could be traced to no previous known case. The constant lowering of the health of the people, which “Jjust as certainly as the recorded epi- demics, comes from graves—this is not taken into account. To be sure our city is blessed with a wonder- fully healing air but that is no rea- son why we should tempt Providence by sowing broadcast the germs of disease. The reaping time will sure- 1y come. ““The mills of God grind slowly, But they grind exceedingly small.’ “When as must surely sooner or later happen, streets are run through old burial grounds, and factories and dwellings are built over them, then will they with tenfold vehemence ex- act retribution; retribution, not for desecration of .the sacntuary, but for the first great offence of storing up in the earth, which is our home, the foul and festering cesspools of dis- ease. “There is another point, less ur- gent than the sanitary considerations, but not unimportant; that is the dif- ficulty which must in no long tire be experienced in finding space for new burial grounds. The growth of the city will certainly make it neces- sary to go a long distance to find a place against which protest would not be made. These objections will be all the more emphatic as people become better informed as to the dan- ger from cemeteries. Then the bur- den will fall still more heavily than now upon those least able to bear the expense, for with every mile of dis- tance the cost of burial is increased. “Is it not well to be wise’in time and forestall these difficulties by adopting now the better way toward which the thoughtful all over our own and other lands are turning? “Minneapolis is abreast of the times in providing for this awaken- ing desire for the better and more sanitary custom. In Lakewood cem- etery most perfect and beautiful pro- vision has been made for cremation, and it is rapidly coming into favor. The method needs only to be intelli- gently known and considered to be generally adopted. As one of the trustees of the cemetery said, ‘Who- ever witnesses a cremation is con- verted." If we had been accustomed to this perfectly sanitary, yes, even beautiful method of giving our dead to the swift consuming fire which in rosy light destroys every vestige of decay and returns ‘ashes to ashes’ without the least unpleasant odor or the slightest shock to that sense of tenderness and beauty with which we would cherish to the last the remains of our loved ones—if we were famil- iar with this method only and it should be suggested that we substi- tute earth burial with its horrible certainty of loathsome festering de- cay, we should hold up our hands in holy horror at such a thought; we should not need the overwhelming sanitary argument to urge us not to accept this repulsive method. “It is not long ago that one of the| prominent men of this city had, be- cause of certain desired changes, oc- casion to disinter the body of his father-in-law. The coffin was of lead, sealed. His wife wanted to look up- on her father once more. They did so, and he said the revolting condi- tions made cremationists of both of them. Let but imagination present to the mind the real aspects of bur- ial and none would consent to such dreadful possibilities for the body of a loved one. It was under the aus- pices of the rector and vestry of an Episcopal church that cremation was first introduced. Will not the clergy of Minneapolis hasten on this bene- ficial reform?” A Daily Paper of Sports. It was good news for lovers of sports when The Chicago Record-Her- ald decided to issue its famous “green sheet” every day in the week. This four-page supplement of sporting news has long been a valued feature of The Sunday Record-Herald. Now, it appears daily as well as Sunday, so that its readers really have a reg~ ular four-page newspaper devoted en- tirely to the events and personalities of the great world of sports. Men interested in these matters long ago discovered that The Chicago Record-Herald is a reliable authority, printing all the sporting news, day by day and year by year, with a steady accuracy unsurpassed anywhere - The department, now expanded to fill a whole daily supplement, continues under the same experienced editor- ship as before, with a greatly in- creased staff of special reporters and experts. These men devote all their time and skill to this department alone. They have every facility that modern enterprise can devise for the quick and complete reporting of Chi- cago sporting events, while at the same time the athletic news of the whole country is received by tele- graph to the last moment of going to press. All that is of interest in baseball, football, racing, athletics, hunting, automobiling, yachting, golf, tennis, boxing and other sports can always be found in The Record-Herald, with good illustrations and cartoons The Record-Herald’s “green sheet” is a model of reliability and up-to-date- ness.

GRAY HAIR MAKE YOU LOOK " OLD A Simple Remedy Brings liuk the Natural Color—Dandruff Quick- 1y Removed. How often one hears the expres- sion, “She is gray and beginning to look old.” It is true that gray hair usually denotes age and is always as- sociated with-age. You never hear one referred to as having gray hair and looking young. Thé hair is generally the index of age. If your hair is gray, you can’t blame your friends for referring to you as looking old. You can’t retain a youthful appearance if you allow your hair to grow gray. Many per- sons of middle age jeopardize their future simply by allowing the gray hair to become manifest. If your hair has become faded or gray, try Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Hair Rem- edy, a preparation which a chemist by the name of Wyeth devised a few years ago. It is simple, inexpensive and practical, and will banish the gray hairs in a few days. It is also guaranteed to remove -dandruff and promote the growth of the hair. It is a pleasant dressing for the hair, and after using it a few days itching and dryness of the scalp en- tirely disappear. N Don’t neglect your hair, Start us- ing Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur today, and you will be surprised at the quick results. This preparation is offered to the public at fifty cents a bottle, and is recommended and sold by all drug- gists. s e e e ARTICLES OF INCORFORATION OF THE BEMIDJI INSURANCE AG- ENCY, INCORFORATED.
