TO BEAUTIFY SMALL CITIES. Convention at Baltimore to Offer Many Wholesome Suggestions. Baltimore, Md.,, Nov. 19. — The eighth annual 'convention of the American Civic association begun here today with a good attendance of municipal officials and civic lead- ers from all parts of the country. President J. Horace McFarland call- ed the gathering to order and will preside over the three days’ session. The programme calls for an exhaus- tive discussion of city planning with special reference to the problems of the small cities and towns. Other matters that will receive attention are thé billboard and smoke nuis- ances, markets and market places and the extérmination of the house fiy. Some Minnesota cities will have Tepresentatives at this meeting and it is predicted that suggestions made at this convention will be carried out by cities in this state. Bemidji has room for some improvements still and may profit by what is accomp- lished at this meeting. PINEWOOD. Mrs. 0. Negaard and sister went to Bemidji Monday to consult a doc- tor.

Christie and Elder Lambkin of Minneapolis, Minn., are spending a week at this place visit- ing friends and assisting in the meetings and conferenece being held at the church. Elder Houton of Clitherall is spending a few days assisting in the meetings and visiting friends. Dilbert Whitings had a narrow escape from fire Saturday morning, the paper having caught fire up stairs and was burning quite flercely when discovered.

The Worth boys spent Sunday af- térnoon with the Grover boys, skat- ing on Little lake near Grover's.

Saxile, who has been work- ing in North Dakota arrived home last Wednesday. Peter Westlurtd, sold a nice heifer to P. Sarff last week.

Christy, of Minne- apolis, missionary for the Church of watter Day Saints, will speak. Robert Paul was on-the sick list last week. Mr. Paul had a hemmor- age of the nose on Friday, which lasted for several hours and left him quite weak. His condition is im- proved at this time. Roy and Anna Bowers were home from Bemidji over Sunday. There was a shadow social at the Aldrich school last Friday night. Those present report a very enjoy- able time. The attendance was very small, however, and considering’ thé fact that the ‘social was given fot the benefit of the school, to buy sup- plies, which the board felt they were unable to furnish, in our opinion this lack of interest shows a very poor spirit_on the part of the patrons of the school. Mrs. Buney Aldrich expects to leave next Wednesday or Thursday for an extended visit in Minneapolis and in North and South Dakota. The Wilton Birthday club met last Sunday at the home of William West. The occasion was Mrs. West’s birth- day. RETAIL MERCHANTS IN SESSION To Proetst Against Blame For High Cost of Living St. Louis, Mo., Nov. 19.—With “a square deal for the small retail mer- chant” as their slogan, one thousand representatives of the retail trade throughout the country assembled at the Planters’ Hotel in this city to- day for the first annual convention of the National Federation of Re- tail Merchants. The retailers object to having the blame for the high cost of living laid at their doors and the convention will probably register a strong protest. Martin J. Maloney, of Detroit, is presiding over the convention ses- sions, which will continue three days. Senator Jonathan Bourne, Jr., of Oregon, father of the parcels post, is scheduled to discuss that subject before the . convention. Another prominent speaker on the program is Charles Nagel, secretary of com- merce and labor, who is to talk about the amendments to the Sherman an- ti-trust law. TO KEEP FARMER ON FARM. Better Crops, Roads and Markets Are Topics to Be Discussed. Hutchinson, Kas., Nov. 19.—Agri- cultural experts and- progressive farmers gathered here in force today to take part in the Kansas Agricul- tural and Industrial Congerss. The sessions will last two days. Increas- ed yields, better highways, improved marketing conditions and similar top- ics are slated for discussion, but most attention will be directed to the prob- lem of how to keep the farmer on the farm. Profit in Travel. It 18 worth while to journey, to learn how deceptive is that mirage which forms itself out of distance and nothingness; how good is the land about us, and the life that requires no translation to be understood.—N. S, Shaler. Australlan Desert, Australia’s northern territory s the only large unpeopled tract of habit: able land on the globe. It is six times the area of the state of Victoria. The country is fertile, and is watered by numerous splendid rivers.

A cold generally attacks the weak- est part, affecting the eyes and ears in some and producing nasal catarrh and throat troubles in others. A cold is due to an inflammation of the mem- brane lining the air passages, and may be promptly cured with a little Ely’s Cream Balm, which immediate- ly relieves the inflammation and all the distressing symptoms, such as sneezing, coughing, running at the nose and eyes, hoarseness, sore throat fever and headache. One reason why this pure, antiseptic Balm acts so quickly is because it is applied direct- Iy to the tender, sore surfaces. Even in severe ,chronic cases of ca- tarrh, Ely’s Cream Balm never fails to quickly and effectually check the poisonous discharges which clogs the head and throat, causing the disgust- ing hawking, spitting and blowing of the nose. This remedy not only driv- es out the disease, but heals and strenthens the wéakened membranes, thus ending catarrh, Catarrh is & filthy, disgusting dis- ease. Don’t put up with it another day. Get a 50 cent bottle of Ely’s Cream Balm from your druggist and see how quickly you will be relieved. It is perfectly harmless.—Adv.
