The down pour which visited Be- midji and vicinity last night and this morning is of the greatest im- portance as a crop raiser. The sun of the past three weeks effectually dried up the roads and the plowed fields, leaving a lack of moisture for the fresh seed. This rain will start the spring crops and go far toward making the yield a record breaker. Skovgaard. Skovgaard is without doubt the best violinist that has visited Bemid- ji for some time. His concert Wed- nesday night was excellent and these who were unable to attend have been voicing their sorrow since. His house was small, largely owing to the pres- ence of Mr. Hill the same evening, but it is believed by those who heard him that onhis return tour in Novem- { ber he will have a capacity house. He sails for Europe on May 4 and will spend the summer abroad. Much praise is heard of his accom- panist and Miss \Wright, who sang several selections for the soprano. How Much Shall It Be. Ilach store is going to do some ad- vertising next month. Each mer- chant is going to understand that he can get benefit from space well used! Each one is trying to figure how much space he can use with profit! If a merchant has been advertising occasionally, he is going to try to figure how he can advertise every day, if he has been using small ads at frequent intervals, he is going to see if it will not pay to use larger spaces and use them oftener. That is the way business is developing. That is what merchants ought to be trying to accomplish. The one who pays out more money for advertising and gets a fair per cent of profit as a result, will have no difficulty in seeing the advantage of what he is doing. But how much should he do? That is the question which is now of greatest importance. How much should he spend and how should he spend it? Each successful man has become successful by following certain lines, or in spite of following certain lines. It would be well to think why any line of policy was successful, and calculate how little more of that very essence will make the larger expendi- ture all the better. Every merchant wants to know why he is not doing more business. Every merchant can do a little better if he tries along the right lines. Ev- ery merchant can carry a little more advertising if what he has carried has been of advantage. In estimat- ing the amount to be used during May it must be remembered that the space used in April was a forerunner of the coming season and the space taken next month will be a gauge by which can be measured the success of the work done in the past month. Advertising is a barometer by which the merchant can measure and by which he is measured and it is well to make the space of the future com- mensurate with the business of the past. It takes a man with sand to leave! foot-prints on those of time. BOY WHO WOULD NOT OBEY Precocity of a New York Youth Wag a Mighty Serious Problem For His Mother. —_— i In a discussion on *Education,” held the other afternoon at the head- quarters of the National League for the Education of Women, Miss Jane Day, who is a “visiting teacher” of school 166, of which John Reigard 1a principal, told several stories of her experiences in her attempt to bring the school and the home into closer relationship. “One thing which many of you upper class mothers don’t under stand,” she explained, “is the superiot precocity of the children of the poor. I remember going to call upon the mother of a boy whom his teachers had found quite incorrigible in school and asking her to make him behave himyelf. “‘And how can I make him behave himself in school, when he won’t do it at home? she demanded. ‘Why, he doesn’t care a bit about a thing I say. ‘When I tell him to bring up the coal and take down the ashes he just laughs at me and tells me that he isn’t fourteen and if I try to make him work he’ll have the Gerry society after me for breakin’ the child labot laws. Now, what can I be doing with a boy like that?"” ! H Quotation on Wildcats. The sons of J. H. Brower at Gran- ville have sold their large live wild- cat, captured one year ago, to R, At- water of Akron, Ohio, for $8. The cat has been used to kill rats which infest Mr. Brower’s barn. The animal, which is apparently eight or ten years old and weighs fif- teen pounds, killed ten rats in less | than five minutes when they were thrown one by one into its cage. The boys had some dangerous sport with the wildcat a few days ago when they attached a plough line about its neck and pulled it from the cage. Mr. Brower stopped the sport before any of the lads were attacked by the fe- rocious animal. It was shipped by express to Akron. A Mild Argument. T “Hubby, do you love me as much as you did when we were first mar- rled?” “Of course I do.” “Seems to me you don’t tell me so 18 often as you did.” “Yes, T do. Seems to me you're hard- er to convince.” Said Much in Little, | “Cy” Warman, the poet and humor- ist, is credited with the story of an after-dinner speaker who was called on to speak on “The Antiquity of the Microbe.” He arose and said, “"Adam bhad ’em,” and then sat down. TASTE, SMELL AND HEARING RESTORED A Simple, Harmless Remedy Quickly Relieves Catarrhal Deafness. The thonsands who suffer the mis- eries of catarrh, and claim they have never found a cure, can gét instant relief by simply anointing the nos- trils with Ely’s Cream Balm. | Unlike internal medicines which upset the stomach or strong snuffs which only aggravate the trouble, this cleansing, healing, antiseptic balm instantly reaches the seat of charge, clears the nose, head and thiroat, and brings back the sense of taste, smeil and hearing. More than this, it strengthens the weakened, diseased tissues, thus protecting you against a return of the trouble. Nasal catarrh is an inflammation of the membrane lining the air pas- sages, and cannot be reached with mixtures taken into the stomach or with snuffs and powders which only ! office evenings do you ever think he jticle did not fulfill the promises of ! Kilmer & Co., Birhamton, N. Y.,'and cause additional irritation. Don’t waste time on them. Get a fifty cent bottle of Ely’s Cream Balm from your druggist, and after using it for u day you will wish you had tried it having determined that, it is easy to|sooner. e FRIDAY, APRIL 26, 1912, JUST THINK OF THAT. Loraine—Tell me, dear, did Harold kiss you very hard? Evelyn—Not exagtly. kissed me. He hardly Doesnt’ Deceive Her. Mrs. Exe—When your husband tele- phones that he has to remain at the is deceiving you? Mrs. Wye—No; but he thinks he is. THE SECRET OF SUCCESS Genuine Merit' Required fo Win the People’s Confidence Have you ever stopped to reason why it is that so many products that are extensively advertised, all at once drop out of sight and are soon for-! gotten? The reason is plain—the ar- the manufacturer. This applies most particularly to a medicine. A medi- cinal preparation that has real cura- tive value almost sells itself, as like an endless chain system the remedy is recommended by those who have been cured, to those who are in need of it. prominent local druggist says “Take for example Dr. Kilmer’'s Swamp- Root, a preparation I have sold for many years and never hesitate to rec- | ommend, for in almost every case it shows immediate results, as many of my customers testify. No other kid- | ney remedy that I know of has so| large a sale.” | The success of Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp- Root is due to the fact that it fulfills every wish in overcoming kidney, liv- er and bladder diseases, corrects ur- inary troubles and neutralizes the uric acid which causes rheumatism. A free trial bottle will be sent by mail, absolutely free. Address Dr,| mention this paper. Regular size bottles sold at all druggists—50c and §$1.00. e asme| OT Suggestions THE CITY OF BEMIDJI Will make its first trip to the dam on Sunday after- noon, April 28, leaving the city dock at 2:30.
