Marine Corps Tests. Owing to the fact that no appro- priation has been made by congress for properly advertising the fact, the United States Marine Corps is asking newspapers to advertise the fact that examinations for the corps will be held in St. Paul July 14. The exami- nations are open to any able bodied men between the ages of twenty-one and twenty-seven. Fourteen second lieutenants are to be appointed from those who pass the examinations. The pay of a second lieutenant is $1,- 700 per year with allowances. That McDonald Statement. A Kick is always easier than aboost. Witness the way thé MecDonald statement before the senate temper- ance committee is being taken all over the state as indicative of the feeling in Bemidji. Denials and ex- pressions of other sentiment travel as fast as yellow news. The never following comment clipped from a weekly exchange is a good example of what is being printed about Bemidji. “Omne of the most remarkable state- ments ever made before a legisla- tive committee was that of A. B. Mec- Donald of Bemidji, which went on record at St. Paul last Friday, if the reports of the twin city papers are to be taken as correct. e appeared on behalt of the saloons of which, Bemidji, he was of the opinion, were threatened by a bill proposing to wipe out the road houses under certain conditions. According to the stories printed, he said among other things that the quicker a lumberjack was ‘rolled’ the better for’ the jack.” lumber- A Thought for Bemidji. A steer was bought by the school Falls last No- vember and was fattened, together with a calf and a sheep, as an experi- ment by the agricultural department. The animals were killed this week and the records showed that the steer had gained at least two points, for kept. The school board now proposes to fatten each day he had been at least ten steers mext winter and use the profits in extending the agri- cultural department. Bemidji can take the hint. The school farm lies idle all winter. A large part of the produce must be put on the market in the fall at low prices because there is no stock to eat it. Would it not be better to get eight or ten steers, let the students have the benefit of watching actual feeding experiments, and turn low priced feed into high priced meat rather than let the farm lie idle all winter? . educators that a child will take more interest in something that is alive than in any thing else. It is an axiom among Interest in the agri- cultural course here would be great- ly increased if the farm was stocked at least part of the year. Inciden-~ tally the profits would materially cut the cost of the upkeep of the farm. The Chinese Loan. The resignation of Assistant Secre- tary of State Wilson brings the Chin- ese loan negotiations into public gaze. tI appears from his letter that he re- signed because he did not like the pol- icy of the new administration. The Chinese loan is one that has been under consideration by Ameri- can, European and Japanese banking houses, The proposition that Presi- dent Wilson had to face was this: the four American banking houses of J. P. Morgan and company; Kuhn, Loeb and company the First National and City National Banks of New York, proposed to underwrite their share of the loan provided the United States government would stand back of the account. They made this offer on the theory that they were working with the state department and that it would be well for the United States to have a hand in the loan. Nothing was said about the government getting any of the ‘profits. President Wilson and Secre- tary Bryan saw through the one-sided arrangement and notified Wall Street that the government would not.be a party to the affair. In a statement issued yesterday by the banking houses involved, it ap- pears that the negotiations were first| carried on by ex-President Taft who was favorably inclined to them. On the face of things, it would look as though the new president will not eat out of Wall Street’s hands. Clothing as an Insulator. In dealing with persons suffering trom electrical shock, if the victim re- mains in contact with the circuit, his body must not be touched by the ies- ruer, but the later may pull him out] of contact by hauling on the clothing, or he may take off his own coat, in- sert his hands in the sleeves and' then handle the victim with little or no 1isk. Almost any article of cloth-| Ing or material may be used, provided it is dry and of moderate thickness. Dr. Morton points out that death from electrical skock is only an apparent death at first, and that there is prac- tically always a time during which it Is possible to resescitate the victim by artificial respiration—The Lancet, Not Up to Sample. A plain-looking, elderly maiden, hav- Ing noticed a marriage advertisement in the paper, entered into correspond- ance with the advertiser, and arranged o meet him at the railway station. As a token of recognition she sent him a small cutting of the dress she should wear on the occasion, and de- parted by an early train to the place of meeting. Here_she waited for all the trains, but in vain, and returned aome, bitterly disappointed. Next day she read in the paper:— “I liked the pattern well enough, but didn’t care for the piece.”—London Tit-Bits. . The Forty Year Test. An article must have exceptional merit to survive for a period of forty | years. Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy was first offered to the public in 1872. From a small begining it has grown in favor and popularity until it has attained a world wide reputation. You will find nothing better for a cough or cold. Try it and you will understand why it is a favorite after a period of more than forty years. It not only gives relief—it cures. For sale by Barker’s Drug Store, Bemidji, | Minn.—Adv. FIRST TEST OF BAROMETER efore Putting Full Reliance on In- strument, Certain Precautions Are Imperative. Don’t expect a barometer to tell rou the truth about the weather until 7ou have tested it thoroughly. Two sommon causes for unreliability are ur and water mixed with the mer ;ury in the tube. These can be ex- selled by boiling the mercury. In or- ler to test a barometer let it hang lor a'time in the proper position, then gently and-with care incline it so that the mercury may strike against the zlass tube. If there is no air within | you will hear a sharp metallic click, but if the sound is dull and muffled It indicates the presence of both air and moisture. The presence of air ilone is shown by minute bubbles. It | at any time the mercury seems to adhere to the tube even in the slight- 3st degree, and the convex surface as- sumes a more flattened form, it is safe :0 conclude that-either air or moisture Is present. In any of these cases the instrument should be put into expert hands for rectification. There are several kinds of barome- ters. The -ordinary ‘“weather glass” In common use is more or less unre- liable and is easily made more 80 by cardess handling. In fact, any bar- ometer must be treated with great respect in order to retain its useful ness.—Harper's Weekly. COULD You POINT HIM OUT? Many of Us Have an Idea of Just the Man the Fool-Killer Should - Locate. b The Village Pest sauntered into the | office of the Real Estate Man, seated himself in a comfortable chair and placed his feet on top of his friend’s desk. “Whaddy think,” he observed, “a perfect woman has been found in Bos- ton.” | The Real Estate Man did not en- courage a continuance of the talk. | “Huh.” “And a vaudeville performel is ad- vertising himself as the perfect man.” “All of which may be very true,” ex- | claimed the Real Estate Man, “but no- | body as yet seems to have located the perfect nuisance!

Royal Baking Powder is more eco- nomical than any other leavening agent, because of the superlative quality and absolute wholesomeness of the food it makes. - Mixtures made in imitation of genuine baking powders, but containing alum, are frequently ‘distributed from door to door, or advertised and offered at a low price.

READ THE LABEL | Dining With George. | Horace Binney, the famous Philadel- | phia lawyer, used to tell a story of | how when a boy he dined with Presn-i dent Washington. The executive man- | sion in this city was on the south side | | of Market street, hetween Fifth and | Sixth. Mrs. Washington’s grandson lived with his most august grand- parents, and he was a playfellow of | young Rinney, who.resided on Market | street, just opposite the stately home of the president. One evening Binney was. agked to remain to dinner, Gen- eral and Mrs. Washington and the young grandson being the others pres- ent. The future great lawyer said that during the entire meal not a single word was uttered by either President or Mrs. Washington, while he set in | silent awe of the grandeur, and espe- cially the-commanding personality of the father of his country.—Philadel phia Ledger. { the north of Europe. | able Inhospitable Tundras.
