Arthur no longer re- tains the form that mndemp ‘heavy- weight champion? It may be just as well , for Me- Carthy that Johnson is tied.up with court engagements and the match with Palzer. While it is possible he might lick Johnson, the odds are against it. McCarty is hardly out of the novice class as yet and will do well to confine his efforts to the “hopes” for the next year or two. He needs a great deal more experience before tackling the colored fighters. Later on, if he continues to improve, his ambition to go after the undis- puted heavyweight championship may be given consideration, but the immediate future promises to keep him busy establishing his supremacy among the white heavies. MACK. DELEGATES PREPARE TO LEAVE London, Feb. 1.—The Balkan al- lies and Turks are making active pre- parations to resume hostilities in southwestern Europe. Delegates of the allies to the peace conference are saying farewell and packing their baggage preparatory to departing. A dispatch received from Constan- tinople reported that the Turkish delegates are ordered home, but the command has not yet been received here. It seems that only intervention by the powers can avert further re- sort to arms. Their work thus far has apparently failed. Even at this hour each side is ac- cusing the other of bluffing. The Tuiks declare that in their note to the powers the allies have given greater concessions as a basis of re- suming peace negotiations than they had expected to make at the com- mencement of peace negotiations. The allles say what was acceptable ‘a fortnight ago is not to be enter- tained now; that the Turks’ game is obviously to lead them by the nose for. months, counting on the allies’ financial exhaustion and complica- tions to arise to favor Turkey. -Dr. Daneff, head of the Bulgarian delegation, said the feeling of the; Balkan population must be consider- ed. Excitement among them, he de- “Dn}haniSqn: Write to Peruna Testimonials If You =~ Want to Know the Truth. ‘The following letter was received by Dr. Hartman through his regular cor- respondence: “Lnotice the testimonial of Mrs last article. 1t I should write her dc you-suppose she would give me further; partioulars? I have heard it sald many times that such testimonials are faltes; that they are either absolutely fictitipus or else the people have been hired:to write them. I have been in- clined to write you a great many times but these stories about patent medi- cine advertisements have dlscouraged me from doing so. I am afflicted with catarrh and should like very much tc find a remedy such as your article de- scribes.” To ‘the above letter Dr. Hartmar made the following reply: My-dear Madam:—I do not wondey that you are confused and have losi all faith in advertised . remedies ‘There has been so much said agains! them, s0 much controversy concern- ing them, I am not surprised thal some people have lost confidence in them. I .wish you would write Mrs. Bogle, as orid, woman to another. I wish you would ‘ask her whether she has been hired, to write such a telumomall wWhethier her testimonial represents the truth. 1 hope you will remember that she it a housewife, like yourself, that she has something to do besides write letters that she is a woman of moderate means and cannot afford to write these letters and pay her own postage. 1 hope you will enclose stamp 8o she can answer. you without loss to herself Mrs. Bogle is a very estimable lady and no doubt you will both profit by ‘delng Hcquainted with each other. Should you conclude to try Peruna for your catarrh I would be very glad o hear of the result. I can assure you that no use will be made of your let- tor, except by your written consent. Mrs. Bogle very kindly consented to have me use her letter, which is my Teason ‘for doing 39, and you will be treated exactly as she has been. . People recover from chronic catarrh who take Peruna. There is no doubt about that. Some surprising recoveries are reported almost dally. I have thou- sands of them In my files. PERUNA 18 FOR SALE AT ALL DRUG STORES.

Dr. Daneff repeated that the-only thing to stop the reopening of .the ‘war was the unconditional surrender of Adrianople and ~the Aegean Islands. Exchanges of communications be- tween representatives of the powers were active yesterday, but thus far no practical way. has been found to avert the resumption of hostilities.

BEMIDJI MEN ATTENDED The January number - of “The North Woods,” a monthly published by the state forestry department, contains an'account of the cedar- men’s convention which was held in Minneapolis—January 7. The con- vention and banquet was attended by two Bemidji operators, H, M. Clark and J. W. Naugle. Mr. Clark was also in Minneapolis this week and called at the rooms of the Northern Minpesota Development association. PAID TRIBUTE TO LAUGHTER Men of Intellect and Renown Join In Testimony to the Value of Joljity in Life. The value of a good-natured laugh may be rated low by some people; but many writers have attested its worth in no measured terms. It-i8 not surprising that Charles Lamb should have said, “A laugh is worth & hundred groans in any mar- ket;” but from the lips of the somber Carlyle one is scarcely prepared to hear, “No man who has once heartily and wholly laughed can be altogether or irreclaimably bad.” It was Douglas Jerrold who boldly stated that, “What was talked of as the golden chain of Jove was nothing more than a succession of laughs, a chromatic scale of merriment resch- ing from earth to Olympus.” “I am persuaded,” wrote Laurence Sterne, “that every time a man smiles but much more 80 when he laughs—it adds something to his fragment of life.” Last of all may be cited the verdict of Oliver Wendell Holmes, given with his own inimitable humor, “The riot- out tumult of a laugh, I take it, is the mob law of the features, and Pro- riot act”—The Sunday Magazine. Worried Mero. A eritie of Wells’ novel, “Marriage,” fnds in the confounding of the Kero “the desire to have it all ways; te possess a woman who shall have all the charm and the caprice of the eternal feminine; who shall, by the grossness of her desires and the pattl- ness of conversation, give him an agreeable sense of superiority, and ret shall, to order, acquire deep spir ftual insight when her husband feels be needs it.” “Symptoms.” Occasionally an afflicted lady tells why she left her husband. For the married man, of some introspection and conscience, the feeling produced by the recital is something like the eling one used to have in reading e patent medicine list of “symp- toms.” He used to feel that he kad 'em and deserved the treatment. 01d Age. 01d age as it comes in the orderly process of nature is a beautiful and majestic thing . It stands for exper- lence, knowledge, wisdom, counsel, That is old age as it should be, but old age as it. often is means poor digestion, torpid bowels, a sluggish liver and a general feeling of ill health, despondency - and misery. This in almost every instance is wholly unnecessary. One of Cham- berlain’s Tablets taken immediately HAD THE CHILDREN GUESSING| HI ly When Asked to Deseribe One of tho. Simplest Flowsrs. The nlmpernel is s lln)k, swest little flower that grows widely, but it would seem practically unknown to the public school children of Chicago. This, at least, was the oonclusion torced upon .a certain teacher after Elvln. out a line ‘from Tennyson's 'Maud” and asking for’ its ‘written fefinition. The line w: “As the simpernel dozed on the lea,” and here 1re some of the answers Treceived, in ddition to those defining the ylmper- sel as “a frog! & “a small deer,” “a tragop fiy" and “a small shrub like v prickley pear.” “The word pimpernel uu. up to my nind the image of a pampered cur, Je 18 a worthless brute who spends nost of his time. dozing in the sun- thing,” “The pimpernel seems to.me a small inimal resembling an eel. It has short, ounded ears ‘and bright; beadlike sves. As I'imagine it, the pimpernel Is lying half asleep on the grass near the shore of a lake, ready to slip into the water at the slightest sound.” “A pimpernel seems to me & tramp or gypsy. He lies on the bank in the sun with an old battered hM. drawn over his face.” “I do not know what the word means, but it instantly suggests to me a small lizard covered with pimples or warts. The image flashéd upon my mind as soon as the word was spoken and is still vivid and dfatinct. Al though I never heard the word before, ] seem always to have known it and to attach this meaning to it. Y am ab. surdly confident that this is the true meaning.” All of which would seem to prove that the juvenile imagination, given free rein, can make strange work of almost any given thought or idea. BLACK LETTERS AND WHITE former Can Be Read at a Greater Distance Than the Latter, Is Judgment of Experts. There i8 & tendency on the part of railroads to adopt signs with white let- ters on a black background, ot realiz- ing that the black letter off a white background is easier to read and can be seen at a greater distance. This follows in an interesting way from the structure of the retina of the eye, The impression of a letter at the limit of vision i8 received on the ends of a small bundle of nerves which con: vey to the brain a sort of mosaic im- pression. A nerve can only transmit "to the brain information as to whether or not a ray of light is falling upon it, and when a nerve is partly in the light and partly in darkness the sensation 18 the same as though all of it wag in the light. It follows, therefore, that all nerves on. the. dividing edge. between any black and white area transmit the sen- sation-of light so that all white lines and white areas appear wider and all black lines and .black & appear narrower than they really are. Black letters grow thinner .at the limit.of vision and are still recogniz- able, while at-the same distance white letters grow thicker and cannot be dis- tinguished. There are circumstances when it i8 necessary to use white let- ters, but in-such cases legibility will be improved if they are made with s thin stroke and strongly lighted. Black letters are more distinct if made with ® heavy stroke.—Scientific American, Tobacco Supports Kavalls. A historian, writing less than fifty years ago, speaks of Kavalla, the Na: ples or Neapolis of Macedonia, as “s small Turkish village.” When I vie: ited it in the early days of 1912, says a writer in the Christian Herald, I found it a thriving city, the second seaport in Macedonia, beautitully: sity- ated around the little bay that forms its harbor, while on one side is a great citadel crowned with a Turkish fort- © DArTOw streets are clesner than most Turkish cities can boast, and there are really fine and {mposing buildings. These are mostly- tobacco warehouses, or belong to tobaceco mag- nates, for this weed must at least be given the credit for the prmnt perity of this rising town, which !t the great tobacco port and manufao- turing center of Macedonia. The chief ruins, which date back to Paul’s time, are the remains of a huge Roman aqueduct, whose magni- ficent arches until two years before my visit had brought water to the modern eity. 3 False Sore Throat. If you come home after a hird hy’l work with a raw, rasping feeling in your throat, which becomes quite paintul, do not be decelved into be- leving that you are contracting a sore throat, and accordingly take medicine for'this affection.. The throat will oft- en become dry and painful from great fatigue, or from neglect to eat at the Proper time. If the subject will drink & cup of hot water, or take & table- spoonful of cocoanut or olive ofl, and thereafter lie down and relax for fif- teen or twenty minutes, the:feeling will, most likely, disappear.

There is no country in the world ‘where women ocupy & more dignified or honored position in the home than in Servia. The Servian idea is quite different from that of the Turk, who keeps his women behind shut doors, or the German, whose ideal woman is & good hausfrau. In Servia the wom- | an is the companion of the man. A man is responsible for his unmar- ried sisters, and throughout the Bal- kan states it is considered rather a breach of etiquette for him to marry before his older sister. No Servian girl would feel she could hold up her head in society unless she could speak four languages. There is hardly a Servian woman who cannot play some musical instrument. Em- broidery, painting, drawing and sculp- ture are all .studied.- Politics is & popular feature among women. - Servian women are very domesti: cated and the highest pay personal at: tention to trivial matters of house: keeping. = ° There are two women doctors prac: ticing in Belgrade, and women teach- ers galore.

And at the moment they were discussing their own wonderful feats as vocal- ists. ‘Why,” said the Englishman, blow- ing rings of smoke from his cigar, “the first time I sang in public the au- dience simply showered me with bou- quets.

You must be off your head!” interrupted the Englishman, scoffingly. . “Not at all," apswered Pat. “I tell ye they gave me a house—but it was & brick at a toime!"—London Ans swers, An Anodyne. “An anodyne,” patiently explained a ‘well-known physician to a woman pa- tient, “is a delusion. Any medicine that soothes pain has this drawback ~—it relieves the attack, but the next | attack comes on much sooner.

Without this connectmg link the merchant would find it. much more dnflcult to reach the heart and pocket book of the buyer. ) 3 There is a strained relationship between the buyer and the seller, and there is no denying that the local paper does more to clarify the local market situation, and to produce good .will on the part of the local buy- er toward the local merchant than anything else. Every merchant profits thereby. ' Geod will may be two kinds— good will toward the merchants generally, and good will which is’an asset’in each business. The good will which is an asset in a business is ‘but a part of the general good will, and who.does more to create that general good will than the §pcal paper. The local paper wins the confldence of its readers by giving the news in’ an honest way and supporting -those — things that tend to make a better community. Every en- 2 terprising merchant, who advertises in the paper, shares in the confidence thus created in the paper, as it is natural for a reader to have confidence in ads that appear in a paper in which he has confidence. The merchant should inspire greater confidence in his store and his goeds by judicious advertising. He can do 80 because advertising always reduces the cost of distribu- tion and enables the merchant to sell cheaper. A noted writer hits the nail on the head when he gives the advertiser this advice, which if followed would be im- mensely beneficial to the advertiser: “Make your adver- tisements morally useful to the public, and educationally ‘useful to the public as well as materially nseful.” ' Coyyright 1913 by Geo.
