JAMES L. GEORGE sessor and since assuming the office, Mr. George has put many pieces of property on the assessment rolls which were not there formerly. One of the most notable instances was that of the Engler Lumber company of Baudette. He has also collected over $50,000 in back taxes. Routine In Two Year Cycle. The routine of the office of auditor is completed once every two years so that at this time, Mr. George is just where he started two years ago. 10 put an inexperienced man in the of- fice now will mean that the knowl- edge and experience gained by Mr. George the past two years will be ab- solutely wasted as far as any good to the county is concerned. It will mean that the routine work will not have an experienced man at the head, for Mr. George was an expert book- keeper before assuming the duties of auditor, and so in a short time the office is apt to get into the cha- otic state in which he found it. Those who have had business in the auditor’s office have found Mr. George a courteous, gentlemanly of- ficial and have no complaints to make as to the quality of service from his office. He has not only worked him- self but has trained an office force which handles double ti% amount of business of any similar office in Northern Minnesota. The county auditor is in a posi- tion to be a good “booster” for his home county or to do it great dam- age. Mr. George has assisted in bringing settlers in, in the conduct of state land sales, has bought home goods whenever it has been possible and in many ways is a sub- stantial citizen of not only Bemidji but of the county. Too often counties are burdened with officials who come into office equipped with nothing more than personal honesty and a desire to do right and Beltrami county is fortun- ate in having an auditor who has not only had a wide business experience but who is an expert bookkeeper. It pays a business house to have com- petent, hard working employees. The same is true of the county. W. B. STEWART possible much better and more di- versified . education for Beltrami children. . The. number -of schools drawing state aid has increased in the same period from eight to fifty- three. The amount of apportionment has doubled in the past five years and the school term has been length- ened one month. The number of first grade teachers has increased from less than a dozen to over fifty. All’of this improvement and pro- gress’ means work for some one and it is on the shoulders of the county superintendent that this work falls. 1t takes a man of education. and Mr. Stewart fs a graduate of a normal school, the state University and holds a life teachers certificate, a man of rugged constitution, a man who is willing and able to work, and a man who has .the -vision of the futire Beltrami county and the power to build a proper foundation for that vision. Mr. Stewart has brought in lead- ing educators of the state to make addresses, he has visited every school in the .county during the past year and many of them twice, he has en- _couraged the industrial work which is s0 necessary to the well developed child, and above all he has encourag- ed the centralization of the schools to the point that Beltrami county leads the state in this modern move- ment. Good schools mean good settlers and many. Beltrami county can lit- tle afford to lose the services of the man who has brought her schools to the front and who right ‘now is engaged on work that will carry them still farther forward. W. B. Stewart is up for re-election next Tuesday. The county needs him and he should be returned, M. E. IBERTSON, fice he found that it had been the habit of precedessors to make long trips to the outlying parts of the county instead of apopinting depu- ties and allowing them to.do the work. This made a great expense bill which the county was forced to bear, but by appointing deputies, Mr. Thertson materially lessened this ex- pense. The work of the coromer is un- romantic and has little of the spot- light flavor. He is the man who may be called out of bed at any time of night, winter or summer, to view the remains of either a suicide or of some unknown hobo who may have been killed by a train. His work is thankless and it takes a man of grit to stick to it year after year. The coroner is at times called upon to draw juries both for himself and for district court so that it is more than necessary that he be a man of integrity. JUDGE M. A. CLARK. than a smattering of law. The work of Judge Clark is too well known in this county to make it necessary for himself or his friends to electioneer with brass bands and special trains. He is a hard worker, trained thinker, and no complaints have been heard as to the manner in which he has administered estates. A man cannot learn the work of probate judge by sitting in the of- fice of another judge a few days in the year. It takes legal study and years of experience and the county needs more of Judge Clark’s services, GEORGE H. FRENCH to handle it properly. In spite of the large amount of business handled by Mr. French he is limited on clerk hire by a state law which says that he shall receive but $400. The coun- ty cannot allow him more so that any additional clerk hire comes out of his salary of $2,000 per year. Since he has been treasurer, Mr. in the office bookkeeping which are too technical to explain in this col- umn. He has simplified the office routine in many ways and has be- come generally more efficient each year he has held the office. Mr. French looks upon himself as the servant of the county and has con- ducted the treasurer’s office from that point of view solely. He is the regular Republican nominee of the primaries an will come before the voters of the county next Tuesday on that ticket. As a whole, the. officials of Beltrami county are a conscentious, efficient group and’ to put an inexperienced man into the. detail and confusion of the treasurer’s office: would be a bad business policy. 4., Charles Swanland—convicted of ;the’murder-of David Wistrom in’ Shotlef*‘m iighland 18 now! serving in Stillwater. 5. to penalty.

CARE FOR THE FIRST TEETH ‘Because the first set of teeth of a child come out easily, many par- ents think little of them and langh at the.idea that these need attention. But it is the first set of teeth which determine whether the permanent teeth shall come in straight and make well formed lips. The teecth should not be pulled out until the incoming second: set has forced them ~ut. They are need- ed ty give dircction to' the tender testh to come” and perform a very valuable office. ‘They should be brushed as curefully as the perman- ent set and kept from decay.

There are few perfumes today that cannot be made from chemicals, syn- thetically, as the chemists call it. For: merly all perfumes ‘were extracteq from. flowers, fruits, spices, woods, -or other vegetable and animal substances, The first perfume to be imitated wag vanilla, in 1876. Hellotropine follow. ed, being obtdined by oxidation of a byproduct of camphor. Terpinol is one of the most freely used constit. uents of perfumes. This is a near relation of turpentine. With this, g Jittle ofl, and aqua fortis a chemist can produce & perfume that can scargely be distinguithed from those exhaled by the lily of the valley, llag, and Cape Jessamine, varying agcord: ing to the proportions inh which the chemicals are blended. Artificial vio. let is a combination of citrol (an es. sence extracted from lemon), Indian vervaine, or.lemon verbena, with com. mon acetoe, a substance very lke pyroligneous acld. Most of the cheap perfumes are imitations, and they are almost -lwuyl inferior to the flower extracts. - 8o it ‘might properly be eaid that it is a wise flowur that knows Ats own nermma Cure for Love. “Yes, 1 finally got rid of him,” she said, “without having to tell him in so many words that I never could learn to love him.. I didn’t want to do that, because he’s an awfully nice fellow, and I should ‘have been very sorry to caugse him pain.” French has devised several short cuts|: “How did _you manage 1t her friend asked. “Why, you see, he's subject to hay fever, 80 I decorated the house with golden rod whenever he sent word that he was coming.” NEWTON GIAL Pale, Run-down. Aneamic—Restor- ed to Health by Vinol. Miss Katharine Burns of Newton, Mass., says: About six months ago I was in a run-down condition and my blood was very poor. I had tak- en “several medicines prescribed by physicjahs, but they seemed to do me no good. Finally Vinol was rec- ommended, and. from the first bottle I noticed a great improvement. I have taken six bottles and feel strong and as well as ever.” — Katherine Burns.
