In the news columns of this issue of the will be found detailed and authentic figures Bemidji Pioneer, as to the cost of reconvening the Minnesota legislature. The approximate expense for the kind of a session from which the best results would. be obtained ought not to cost more than $25,000. On the one issue of reapportion- ment it surely would be worth that much. The North alone, if assured a pro- per readjustment of representation, could easily afford to pay more than this-amount. Surely the cost can not be offered as a legitimate excuse for not assmbl- ing the legislature. Oh, slush!” for you, Mr. Weather Man. It looks as if reapportiopment was rapidly convalescing, Viggo Peterson’s motto is: “If at first you don’t succeed, write, write again.” At present prices it is only fair to refer to coffee and sugar as the Gold Brick Twins. Looks as if the Weather Man was trying to turn the World’s base ball series into a high dive. At $25,00 aplece, Minmesota could well afford to buy two or three sessions of the legislature. We trust the outside world will not gain the impression thatthere is a continous torchlight procession on in Northern Minnesota. After thirteen years, Mrs. Ida Stowe of Voltaire, N. D, discovered her husband at Hibbing. Thirteen always was an unlucky number. Football is all right for those who like it but there are many good citizens who are patiently awaiting the opening of the mince pie season. A year ago it was “All eyes on Brainerd.” This time you are re- quested to turn your head southward and take a long and steady squint at St. Cloud. A WORD TO CAMPERS. There is no excuse for your setting the woods afire, because you belong to the outdoor class whose intelli- gence averages high. Yna have only to remember not to throw matches away after lighting your pipe with- out killing the flame, and not to leave a camp fire until you have covered the embers with dirt. Be sure you leave no smoldering log ends. The Forest Service notice shquld be post- ed in every camp. It says you must: Not drop matches or burning tobacco where litter is inflammable. needed. Not build fire in leaves or places where they are likely to spread. Not build larger camp fires than| tion, will receive a copy of the Calen- dar. THE YOUTH’S COMPANION, 144 Berkeley St., Buston, Mass. Great Generosity. “We. are getting up a subscription,” began the lady who was carrying around the paper. Her vdice trembled as she spoke, for the person she was now bracing happened to be the richest fellow in the community. She hoped against hope that she would get some- thing fat from him. “You are getting up a subscription?” echoed the millionaire, with a sweet smile. “I'm sure you'll be very suc cessful. And what can I do?” “Would you—could you”—she nearly fainted at her assurance—*“would you p-p-put your name down on this pape: for a h-h-hundred dollars?” There—it was done. He wouldn't have missed a thousand, but she was pretty courageous to ask foras much as she did. His gentle smile reassured her. “Will I put my name down for a hundred dollars?” said he. “Why, my dear young lady, I don't charge that amount for the use of my name when charity is the cause. I will put my name down, of course, but not for a hundred dollars. I won't charge you a cent for it. It is a slight service.” —Cleveland Plain Dealer. The Female Housefly. . A female house fly which has hiber- nated in a dwelling house, or else- where, may produce in the spring, at the lowest estimate, 120 eggs. Assum- ing that one-half of these hatch as fe. males, and allowing that the breeding goes on without check for four months. ‘we have as the descendants of a single hibernating individual 214,557,844,320,- 000,000,000,000 flies. Now, a house fly measures exactly one-fourth of an inch in length; the distance around the earth at the equator is said to be 24, 800 miles. It would take, therefore, 8,688,312,000 flies placed end to end to go around the world once. Using this number as a denominator, and the number of flies produced in four months from one mother as a numer- ator, we find she will give rise, in the course of a summer, to enough flies to encircle the globe at the equator 5,000 times and have plenty of progeny to spare.—Professor F. L. Washburn in Popular Science Monthly. Severe. A story is going the rounds at a certain university regarding one of the sarcastic professors, who was recently conducting an oral examination in a very scientific study. There was one student, handsome, easy and self possessed, who appeared to be ‘utterly ignorant of the simplest phases of the subject. Professor W. put question after question to him without receiving one intelligent reply. Finally the student said naively: “I'm very unfortunate, professor: you never ask me anything I know." The professor said nothing, but gravely tore off a tiny plece of paper from a convenient pad. “Here, Mr. B.,” he said, handing it to the student, “write all you know. Take plenty of time—there’s no hurry.” What Rhymes With Babe? A comnion English word for which there is only one rhyme is “babe,” and it was Swinburne who used it with exquisite appropriateness in “A Rhyme:” Babe, if rhyme be none For that sweet small word Babe, the sweetest one Ever heard, Right it 1s and meet Rhyme should keep not trug Time with such a sweet Thing as you. Love alone, with yearning Heart for astrolabe, Takes the sun's helght, burning O'er the babe. “Silence” 13 another word beloved of poets that has no rhyme. "Mrs: Brown- ing went to the very limits of her pas- slon for assonance when she rhymed it with “4slands!” Battleéhip Sicilia,\Whiclri B’t;rfibarded Tripoli's Seficqast. And [talian Sailors Charging One of Her Mighty Guns. ‘The bombardment of Tripoli by the Italians in the present war with Turkey is not the first occasion on which the place has been attacked. by the Tunisians from long sweep of shore line and a chain of rocky islet- and reefs. the rocky shoals and the narrow and intricate channel. Queer Newspaper Names. The Italians are uaturally an imagi native race, and the titles which they give to their newspapers. especially in the provinces, fully confirm the fact Here are some instances of the curios ities: : At Aqui. in Piedmont, there is I) Bollente (the boiling one): at' Gerace. the Circus of Nero; at Messina, the Lightning; at Lucca, the Second Light- ning; at Monbercelli, the Inflexible; at Catania, the New Marionettes. Humorous publications rejolce in even stranger titles. We have the Coutropelo (shave against the grain) at Naples, Turin, the Slap in the Face at Bo- logna, the Pif Paf at Palermo, the Brush at Cattanissetta and the Mos- quito at Savigliano. Oddities About Alphabets. When the Portuguese first explored Brazil they made great fun of the na- tives of that country because they had in their alphabet no f, r or l—a peo- ple, the invaders declared, without fe, ley or rey—without faith, law or king. The Mohawks, again, have no labials and vowed it was absurd when the missionaries tried to teach them to pronounce p and b, “for who,” said they, ‘“can speak with his mouth shut?’"—Blackwood's Magazine. Something Was. Rivers was smoking a cheap cigar. “Seems to me,” said Brooks, “I smell something like cloth burning.” But Rivers was game. He touched the lighted end of his cigar to his shirt sleeve. “No wonder,” he said, exhibiting the burned spot.—Chicago Tribune. t . The Trouble. Gramercy—We can’t afford to give a dinner in the house. Besides, we haven't the things. Mrs. Gramercy— Pshaw! We can borrow the silver. Gramercy-—Yes, and have the guests carry most of it away as souvenirs.— Judge. ‘A Second Washing. “I've just washed out a suit for my little boy, and now it seems too tight for him.” “He'll it it all right if yowll wash the boy.”—Meggendorfer Blatter. Changed the Geography. “This goulash was spoiled in cook- ing, sir. Shall T cross it off the bill?” “No, you chump! Put it down -as goulash a la Russe under the head of special dishes.”—Jugend. The grand essentials to happiness in this life are something to do, some- thing to love and something to hope tor. Coming. First Graduate—I hear that you've got a job on the road. Second Ditto— Yes; it haso't reached me yet.—Ex- change. BABY’S BOWELS - Here’s: the causc of all the trouble. Children’s sickness be- gins with the bowels. Healthy bowels mean a healthy child: irregular bowels constipation, the wrong color, and you have a sickly child.

Yet. though the home team was two runs to the good, things looked black for them. The visiters were at bat. There ‘were no outs, 'und three men were on bases; also Terrible Terry Tomkins was up. and Terry's batting average reached the-clouds. “Terry hunched his shoulders and waited confidently, and a groan went up from the bleachers. The ball flew in three pieces, and the pieces flew in three- directions. One ‘was caught by the pitcher, one was pulled out of the air by the shortstop, and one landed in' the first buseman’s mitt. A triple play! The game was the home team'’s. The bleachers went wild.—Philadel- phia Times. SIMPLE MIXTURE USED BEMIDJI. Many in Bemidji are now using the simple buckthorn' bark and gly- cerine mixture known as Adler-i-ka, the new German Appendicitis rem- edy. A SINGLE DOSE relieves ¢on- stipation, sour‘stomach or gas on the stomach almost INSTANTLY. This simple mixture antisepticizes the di- gestive organs and draws off the impurities and people are surprised how QUICKLY it helps. E. N. French & Co.

How often one hears the expres- slon, “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. The 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- édy, 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. 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, T. BEAUDETTE. Merchant Tailor Ladies’ and Gents' Suite to Order.
