The “Pork Barrell” Idea in Roads There is one feature of the Dunn good roads bill, now pending in the senate, that illustrates the “pork barrel” therory on which it is the ap- parent purpose to run road improve- ment in this state. The constitution, as amended a few years ago, provides that not less than one-half of one per cent nor more than three per cent of the state good road fund may be spent In any one county. This is a restric- tion bad enough in itself. But the Dunn bill provides that the minimum Photo by American Press Association.

It Is an emergency A permanent daw is lo three twin locks. Under ordinary eir- cumstances if anything should go wrong with the mechanism of the locks the people in the lowlands would be at the mercy of the terrible force of water held back by the permanent dam and dam no one need worry, for the experts channel of the canal and block the flow the locks.

COOD NEWS Many Bennfl]x Readers’ Have Heard | It and Profited Thereby. | “God news travels fast,” and the thousands of bad back sufferers in Bemidji, are glad to learn where re- spent in each county shall be one per cent. Consider what that means. are now eighty-six There counties in the state. Probably in a few years, as the large northern counties are settled up and divided, there will be ninety or more. That will mean that with one per cent to each county, ninety per cent of the whole will be assign- ed in advance. There will be only ten per cent left for work in the counties that need it most. The counties al- ready well provided, comparatively speaking, will get their one per cent, whether or no, and those in direct need can have scarcely any more than that. In other words, the state high- way commission under this bill would be so restricted in its work - that it could scarcely do more than distri- bute the fund equally to the counties, small and large, old and new, rich and poor. Little chance for devel- oping an effective system of radial roads opening up all sections of the state would be afforded. Another defect of the Dunn bill is in the machinery it provides for vot- ing road bonds. This conucts ser- iously with the provisions of the ..i- well law, which has already proved S0 beneficent a help in road develop- ment. Attempt was made in the house to fix this by adding a clause providing that the Dunn bill must not be held to repeal in any way the Elwell law. ‘Whether this ‘clumsy device to hide instead of remedy a conflict will prove effective is a ques- tion that would puzzle even a good lawyer to answer. It is to be hoped tnat tae senators will be able to look at the question of good roads legislation from a state rather than from a local point ~of view. They can perform no more patriotic or necessary duty than to amend the bill so as to provide effec- tive state machinery for the build- ing of roads systematically and well. They should cut out the “pork bar- vel” idea entirely. It means large waste and poor results. -—The Minneaoo! Journal. Netherland Monarchy.

One will be a mari- time and naval exposition covering 50 (| acres on the north side of the har- bor of Amsterdam. The Jand is now worthless, but will be permanently drained and after- ward used as 'a park.

Many a lame, weak and aching back is bad no more, thanks to Doan’s Kidney Pills. Our citizens are telling the good news of their experience with the Old Quaker Remedy. Here is an ex- ample worth reading: Henry Revor, 808 Bemidji Ave., Bemidji, Minn,, says: “I have tak- en Doan’s Kidney Pills, obtained} trom: Barker’s Drug Store and have received splendid results. I had a lame back, together with pains| across my loins. Every move I made| caused me pain. Itook Doan’s Kid- ney Pills as directed and they re- moved my trouble. I can recommend them.” 1f your back aches—if your kid- | neys bother you, don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—ask distinctly for Doan’s Kidney Pills, the same that Mr. Revor had—the remedy that is backed by home testimony. 50c-all stores.

It will be unneces- sary to print it, for what I am going to write in answer will tell thousands of fond parents just what was in the letter. Here is my answer, writes Edgar Lucien Larkin in the New York American. Your daughter is in a precarious mental state. You ask me what to do, and I gladly reply. Burn her algebra; or, far better, let her tear out thé leaves and cast them one by one into the fire, and then the cover. Take her out of school and go with her to moving picture shows. Take her to ‘he country, give the harassed and tired mind a rest. Never let her eyes look upon an algebra again. Neither she nor any other girl has, or ever will have, any use for algebra. Upon recovery of her mental poise return her to the public school. Then, If any attempt is made to force the torture of algebra upon her, take her out and send her to a private school where differences, yes, " differences, between minds are nllo“ed for in in- struction. Do anything, teach her ycmrselt or employ a private teacher, anything to prevent her fine mind being seared and withered for life by the horrors of difficult equations for which she never can have any earthly use. Teach her things that she-and every other girl ought to know. Now, here are rigid mentological facts, and from teaching I know whereof I speak. The minds of girls | .'and boys are decreed and set by na- MERCHANTS It matters not where you reside or what you want, the merchants below can it get for you at a price that will defy competition. Every merchant is | mistaken for a name’ ture at such wide differences ‘that they may be regarded almost as dif- ‘Coeducation is Teach girls . demands of , but not in useless den; 18, the Hmit nl beurdity. ings should differ in, almost every way. n plan and design. And the minds of the teachers of boys should be so very different from those of girls that com- Pparison can scarcely be ‘made. 1t is alimost infinitely better for a girl to be thoroughly taught how to cure. croup, sudden asthma, colds, fevers, burns, scalds, cuts and brok- en bones, how. to treat and care for children, than to know any mathe- matics higher than “household mathe- matics,” consisting of lddlng up groc- ery bills. Almost daily:1. see’ children in the ears on thelr way to school, and girls are laden with useless algebras. here is .the law: Any study loathed by any student is a positive,.and, in multitudes of cages, a permanent, in- ! jury to mind and brain. That ancient and horrific error that algebra—disufplines the mind should be annihilated. “Esquire”.Not Understood. A letter addressed to John Brownm, Esquire, rested comfortably in a little town of Germany in the “E” com- partment of the post department waiting” ‘to be called for by Mr Ksquire. One of the guide books’ warns against the use of this form of address explaining how it may be Breaking It Gently. “I hev come to tell yez, Mrs. Ma one, that yer husband met with an accident.” - “An’ what is it, now?" wailed Mrs. Malone. “He was over come by the heat, mum.” “Overcome by the heat, was he? An’ how did it happen?” “He fell into !he furnace over at the: foundry, mum.”—Tit-Bits, BEST $5 HE EVER SPENT Bristol, Pa.,, Man Says So in This Letter. Months of suffering and anxiety - over his condition caused Mr. A. L. Kennedy of Bristol, Pa., to write this letter. He says: “Grippe and a bad cough caused me much suffering aid worry for five long months, but that | 15 atl. over now for I have taken Vlnn!‘fi and am perfectly well. . I took five bottles and it was the best five dol-| lars I ever spent.” In health one cannot realize how .depressed a person may become after trying one remedy after another for such a condition as Mr. -Kennedy was in, without benefit, or what a re- lief it is to find help and be restored to health and strength. It is the combined action of the medicinal curative element of cods” livers without' the greasy' oil; ‘aided by the bloggmaking and strength- creating propérties of fonic iron, that makes Vinol so efficient in overcom- chitis at the’same time building up the weakened-run-down system.
