EAROLD J. DANE, Editor. Local Option Bill Passes. By passing the senate local option bill Friday, the house sends the mea- sure to the governor for his signature. The bill gives cities of the fourth class, which are of a population less than 10,000 and in which Bemidji lies, the right to vote on all saloon issues. Local option heretofore has been granted only to towns and vil- lages and to some cities by home rule charters. Many times the governor has been accused of being tied hand and foot to the brewery interests of the state. If he vetoes this bill either directly or by refusing to affix his signature in the time necessary, it will be taken by the people as a direct indication that he is so bound. On the other hand, if he signs the bill a large pro- portion of the suspicion will be re- moved. food is appreciated. the world. made from That Peculiar Lightness and Flavor Noticed in the finest biscuit, rolls, cake, etc., is due to the absolute purity and o the accurate combination of the ingre- dients of the RovAaL BaKING PowDER.

For the breweries, this would be worse than the local option in cities of the fourth class. necessary evils. Near and Yet Far. Reapportionment, which is not ab- solutely just but which is probably the best that can be obtained from the present legislature, has passed both houses. While this is a mater- ial step, yet the measure is but half the expected sum is paid out in death claims, and a corresponding sum is life to earn interest. A third source of “dividends” is from the excess earned over the rate fixed. In New York, the law says that the companies must not figure on earning more than 3% per cent. As a matter of fact, they all do earn more. For example, the company mentioned before advertised that it invested during 1912 nearly $35,000- 000 in real estate mortagage loans to yield 5.32 per cent; it bought nearly seven and a half million dollars of state, county and municipal bonds to yield 4.47 per cent; and it made lt;ans of over $27,000,000 to its policy hold- way to becoming a law. Because of the senate amendment, the bill as passed by that body must go to a conference of the senate and house and be reported back to the house for concurrence in the senate amendment or else both house must pass a com- promise measure. Should the bill survive these two opportunities for its opponents to do it to death, it must then go to the governor for his signature. It is believed that he will sign any bill that is passed. Northern Minnesota people are watching the antics of the southern members and it will fare ers to yield five per cent. Its least AR Wae are ;!obbarl PIN T’ICKETS ill with some of them should they ever come before the people of the entire state for any office. Life Insurance, A few simple words were used to explain just what life insurance is by a speaker before the finance forum of the New York Y. M. C. A. the other day. He threw on a white screen a table showing the number of deaths which will occur every year, in a group of 100,000 persons, from birth to age He assumed that on the death of each one the sum of $1,000 would be paid to the family. Simple mathematical calculation showed that to pay the $1,000 in every case, each member of the group would have to pay each year, as long as he lived, $16.97, and that the money paid in would have to earn four per cent interest. That is the cost of insurance, if the persons insured die at the rate laid down by the tables-based on the ex- perience of the companies. As a practical matter, the cost is more, because there are expenses in- cured in getting people to take out policies and in managing the money paid in so that it will earn interest. This additional cost is called “load- ing”. Insurance companies which pay “dividends” on their policies pay tHem in one or all of three ways: They are “earned” first from re- bates from the “loading” charge—ex- penses having not been as heavy as anticipated.

Japanese life, ‘says James Daven -port Whelpley in the'Gentury, is mueh- less ‘flowefy than itiBeems. - In nc other country in the world does a parger percentage of women partici- pate in wage earning. In the United “States ‘for every 86 male wage earn- ers there are 14 female. In. Great Britain, it is 75 to 26, in Germany 80 to 20, in Italy 78 to 22, while in Japan there'are nearly twice as many women as men on the payrolls of the country. -It is the testimony of all large employers that the women are the industrial backbone of the coun-|" try. The employment of women and children is the secret of the competi- i | i [ i tive power of the Japanese textile and | [ i other light-handicraft industries, and it i for this reason that the possible operation of a law enforcing sanitary provisions and even the common de- cencies of humanity in factory life is viewed with alarm by the manufactur- | ers in their . necessarily strenuous competition for foreign trade. ‘The_new law limits hours of em- |- ployment, -forbids-the use of children under certain ages and the employ- ment of women at night and in dan- gerous occupations. It can be under- derstood, therefore, whence comes the delay in-even promulgating a law which takes effect 16 years after its promulgation. The moneyed classes and ‘the “Interests” necessarily con- trol a legislative body like the Jap- anese diet, many members of which' are elected by a most amazing and open syitem of corruption and vote buying, a system which puts to shame in its effrontery the worst days of ward politics in any gang ridden city in the United States. Chronic Stomach Trouble Cured. There is nothing more discouraging than a chronic disorder of the stom- ach, Is it not surprising that many suffer for years with such an ailment when a permanent cure is within their reach and may be had for a trifie? “About one year ago,” says P. H. Beck, of Wakelee, Mich., “I bought a package of Chamberlain’s Tablets, and since using them I have felt perfectly well. I had previously used any number of different medi- cines, but none of them were of any lasting benefit.” For sale by Bark- er’'s Drug Store, Bemidji, Minn.— Adv.

There are of course a few exceptions. A great many people also need occasionally to take a tonic. Probably Tew households exist that -do not make use of ‘tonics and laxatives. The remedy Peruna is a laxative tontc. It not only operates as.a'gentle laxative, but also as a tonic. .The benefit derived from such a Yemedy 18 a great deal more in the prevention of disease than in the cure. After a person has really become sick, ‘elther with an acute or chronic all- ment, the rule should be to employ a physician, or some one who can give the case his personal attention. But long before this happens the person ‘will complain of this or that symptom, ‘which is not severe enough to interfere with his regular activities. If at this place before the disease has really gained a foothold in the system, a ‘per- son was to take a dose or two of a GOOD GROCERIES AND FRESH EGGS 117 Minnesota Ave. A TONIC LAXATIVE Po-r@na, an Up-io_-Date Family Medicine That | ventea.

Its virtue as a preventive to disease is the thing I wish chiefly to emphasize. A slight condition of constipation may lead to serious sluggishness of the bowels, - biliousness, - re-absorption of polsonous material and finally sicihess. Or apathy of the stomach 4n-which the food is not relished, may. {| gradually lead to atonic dyspepsia or to the acquisition of some acute dis- eade. For elther one of these condi- tlons-a few doses of the tonic-laxative | Peruna would set matters right. This 18 why the remedy should always be kept'handy by. “When once the value of Peruna as & household remedy “is understood nio home would be without it. Cathartics, pills-and powders would be discarded. Irritating tonics would be no longer taken. Alcoholic drinks would have no place. With a few doses of Peruna & | vigorous appetite is produced and -if; there ‘be any sluggishness of the bowels their function is gradually re- ! stored. Most laxatives are weakening in thelr effect. A tonic laxative guards against this weakening effect. Until! right living has become so thoroughly established that all medicines are su- | perfluous, Peruna will be needed. It is exactly the remedy that meets numer- ous necessities of the household. Sold at all drug stores. Mr. John B.
