FIND FEW FOOLISH . ~ 'QUIRIES From Those Who Use Good Reference Books Constantly—Self-An- swering is Best. Far fewer “foolish questions” will be asked and answered in Bemidji in the future since The Pioneer’s self- imposed task of distributing the New ‘Websterian 1912 Dictionaries, Illus- trated, is now well commenced. Stop asking and answering need- less questions and start clipping coupons. Then you can let the dic- tionary do your work. Begin your clipping on another page of this is- sue today in readiness to join those who have already seen the books and are coming back to take them away as soon as six coupons have been pub- lished. | Children’s questions should never be ignored. Impatient parents con- | stantly bar the pathway of learning to little questioners anxious to learn. There is a way to save your patience and provide for the children’s in- struction as well. Let the dictionary tutor your tots. Children’s encyclopedias are the latest fad among the wealthy classes, where the importance of letting the coming generation learn by looking up the answers to its own queries is recognized. Children’s encyclopedias { are very expensive and very cumber- / some, and the New Websterian 1912 / Dictionary suits the purpose well and requires far less expenditure and far less space. Your sons and _daughters, nieces and nerhews, in fact every person in whose welfare you are interested, should have this beautifully bound and comprehensive illustrated mine of ready reference information al- ways at hand. The colored plates are particularly well suited for the in struction of the children and the for- mation of young ideas through the fund of information of which they form a part. No thumbing over big volumes, no back-breaking bending over book stand or book shelves, no dictionary that would seem to require a derrick to lift it. The concise compilation of information obtained through years of studious effort by eminent scholars is always at hand. This dictionary is not published by the original publishers of Webster's Dictionary or by their successors. There are three different styles of binding. First, there is the $4 full limp leather edition, flexible, printed on Bible paper, with red edges and rounded corners. Besides the regular { contents, revised to date by the best authorities, the volume contains more b than 600 illustrations, many of them | on rich color plates, and 16 pages of valuable and official charts. _All of this for six consecutive dictionary coupons and 98 cents. Then there is the regular $3 edi- tion, which is exactly the same as the $4 book, except that it is bound in half leather, with olive edges and | square corners. It contains all the maps, charts, color plates, etc. A copy of this may be had for six con- secutive coupons and 81 cents. The third edition is $2 a copy on the market. It is plain cloth bind- ing, with the same paper and the same illustrations as the other edi- tions, but with the color plates and charts omitted. This may be had for six consecutive coupons and 48 cents. Any book ordered by mail will be | 22 cents extra for postage. CELEBRATION IN DETROIT. Detroit, Mich., July 22.—The Ca- dillaqua festival, in celebration of the 211th anniversary of the founding of Detroit by Antoine de la Motte Ca- dillac, the French soldier of fortune, was ushered in today, with the city gorgeously decorated and filled with visitors as never before in her history. All that the rounding out of twu centuries of progress and develop- t ment, of bnilding and expansion, of | growth in population and business, cf | | goals gained and ambitions realized. of work performed and projects com- pleted, of ideals attained and prob- | @ lems solved, of things done means to a city is what Detroit will celebrate during the week beginning today. i It was on July 24, 1701, that Ca- | dillac arrived at the site of the fu- ture metropolis with fifty soldiers b and fifty Canadian traders and ar- tisans, and established Fort Pont- chartrain on the banks of the river. - Two days later he laid the founda- ‘ tion stone for St. Anne’s church, In this church, some two years later, De- troit’s first White child, a daughter of Cadillac, was baptized. The French called the new settle- ment “In Ville d’Etroit.” The popu- lation of the village was increased in 1749 by the arrival of half a hundred immigrants, who came in response to a proclamation of the governor-gen- eral of Canada offering a subsidy to new settlers. Later there were more arrivals, including large parties of exiled Acadians. In 1774 the first civil government was provided by the British for De- troit and the surrounding territory. In 1796 the town came into the pos- session of the United States and was T = occupied by American tfoops. The town was incorporated im 1802 and three years later it became the seat of the territorial government of Mich- igan. The first paper printed in De- troit appeared in 1809. On August 16, 1812, General Hull surrendered Detroit to the British and. they re- tained possession for a little more than a year. In 1818 the first steam- boat arrived here from Buffalo. In 1824 Detroit was chartered as a ecity and John R. Williams was elected as first mayor. X * During the gala week there will be daily pageants on land, on the water, and in the air. There will be ath- letic events and amusements of every description. Notables from many cities of the United States and Cana- da have accepted -invitations to he guests of the City of Detroit. One of the big features of the week’s program will be a great his- torical pageant depicting the voyage of Cadillac and his landing in De- troit. More than 4,000 persons garh- ed in the dress of the period will first be seen resting in their camp along the St. Clair river. As Cadillac com- pletes his voyage he will be met by a fleet of vessels. The fleet Will he made up of several United States rev- enue cutters, six vessels of the naval reserve and many private yachts. On setting foot in Detroit the French explorer will be met by Unit ed States regulars from Fort Wayne. the Essex Fusliers of Canada, the Michigan militia, and marines from the United States revenue cutters and the naval reserves, who will escort him to Grand Circus park. He will be met at the park by a band of In- 8ians, the chief of which will present him with a pipe of peace’ He will then be formally received by Gover- nor Osborn of Michigan and the offi- cial representatives of Detroit. One night of the week is to be giv- en over to mammoth industrial par- ade, with floats representing the progress of the various manufactur- ing and mercantile interests of the city. Then there will be an automo- bile parade in which 8,000 motor cars will take part, the object being to call attention to the fact that considera- bly more than half the automobiles made in America are built in Detroit. In the hope of making their city the ‘future water-sports center of America the committees have arrang- ed an elaborate program of aquatic sports. Yacht races, power boat rac- es, canoe races, swimming contests and hyrlrf)plane cemopetition will fill in the week. NEWS OF THE COMING WEEK. Washington, D. C., July 20.—-Na- tional politics, both Republican and Democratic, give indication of easing off during the week, pending the no- tification meetings soon to be held and at which the presidential candi- dates will deliver their first impor- tant speeches of the campaign. In the interim the third-party move- ment promises to keep in the glare of the spot-light. During the week the Roosevelt followers are expected to hold conventions in Iowa, Alaba- ma and a number of other states for the election of delegates to the Na- tional Progressive convention at Chi- cago. A general Democratic primary will be held in Texas Saturday for the se- lection of candidates for goveraor and other state officers, members of the legislature, judiciary, United States senator and congressmen-at- large. The contest for the seat of Joseph W. Bailey in the United States senate has been a long and bitter one. The leading candidates are Congress- man Morris Sheppard, Congressman C. B. Randell and J. F. Wolters. Gov- ernor Colquitt is a candidate for re- nomination and is opposed by W F, Ramsey, associate justice of the su- preme court. Democrats of Iowa will meet :in state convention in Cedar Rapids on Thursday to adopt a platform and name two candidates for judge of the state supreme court. Hearings in the government’s suit in equity to dissolve the American Sugar Refining company are to be re- sumed in San Francisco Tuesday. From San Francisco the hearings will shift to Salt Lake City, then to Den- ver and back to New York. : The-city of Detroit is to celebrate its 211th anniversary with a monster land and water carnival, beginning Monday and continuing through the greater part of the week. Ten thou- sand persons are to take part in the carnival, which is to be called Cadil- laqua, in honor of Cadillae, the French explorer who founded the city in 1701. Amiong the conventions of the week will be the annual convention of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, which will be held in Spokane; the national convention of Gideons, or Christian™traveling men, in Atlanta; and the national grand lodge meeting of the International Order of Good Templars, which will assemble in St. Paul. SHOTLEY. Haying is late-this year, not many have commenced haying, it seems to be growing its best just now. The last rain did wonders to onr gardens, Mrs. Hugh Bosworth is visiting here with her husband- for the past two weeks, she expects to return to their home at Twin Valley, Minn., sometime next week.

Gust Sandell lost his sawmill, shingle mill and several thousand feet of lumber and shingles by fire. It is not known where the fire started, as there had been no work at the mil! for several days.

BEAUTIFUL HAIR AT SHALL GOST A Simple Remedy Beautifies the Hair, Cures Dandruff, Stops Falling Hair., What a pity it is to see so many people with thin, wispy, faded or streaked with gray, and realiez that most most of these people might have soft, glossy, abundant hair of beauti- ful color and lustre if they would but use the pyoper treatment. There is no necessity for gray hair under six- ty-five years of age, and there is no excues for anyone, young or old, hav- ing thin, straggling hair, either full of dandruff or heavy and rank smell- Ing with excessive oil.

Ranchmen Discard Pony for Auto. Dallas, Texas, July 22.—The sight. of scores of automobiles drawn up here today for the start of the Texas ranchmen’s cross-state tour caused the spectators to predict that the day is not far distant when the cowboy’s pony, like the city horse, will soon be supplanted by the motor car. The cross-state tour is confined exclusive- ly to cars owned by ranchmen and farmers, but despite this limitation there was no lack of entries in the contest. Several handsome trophies and $1,000 in cash prizes will be dis- tributed among the winners. The route is from Dallag to San Antonio and return, each touring car carry- ing not less than four passengers, and runabouts at least two passen- gers. Emperor Reported Better. Tokio, Japan, July 22.—More fav- orable news concerning the illness of Mutsuhito, emperor of Japan, came from the palace this morning. The secretary of the imperial household announced at 8 o’clock the condition of his majesty was considerable im- proved and that attending court phy- sicians were more hopeful. The em- peror fell asleep at midnight and had nearly six hours’ undisturbed rest. At 6 a. m. his temperature was 100 1-2 degrees fahrenheit, which was a drop of 3 1-2 degrees within a few hours. Earlier reports gave his pulse as 82 and respiration 34 and although his heart showed some weakness, the symptoms are not con- sidered alarming. Simplicity.
