The weather is about right now to make baseball predictions. We still have too much faith in the Crookston Lumber Company’s baseball team to believe it will ever be necessary to use the pulmotor on it. . The Box Factory and the two lum- ber mills make as big a hit with the summer visitors as do our natural surroundings. Visitors are always welcome and receive the most cour- teous treatment at the hands of the employes. Bemidji is proud, and has a right to be, of her most important industries. President Wilson may take out a little stock in the New Wilson hotel at W. A. Ville, if he can be persu- aded that the proposition is a live one. We're all convinced that Mr. Wilson is far from being a “Dead One” and it will take little to con- vince him that Bemidji is just as far from the point if he reads the papers.

It may be that the Phone company will want another petition, because it is barely possible that some of the signatures have become erased from the old one. We wonder too, if such a thing could be possible that the Northwestern Telephone company has not heard of the move to get another system installed in this city.

He Was Not on the Early Morning Job, but the Kaiser Was. Some time ago the kaiser heard that a captain in one of the guards regi- ments at Potsdam had fised the regu- lation hour of schooling for his men at 6 o'clock in the morning. The kaiser, though doubting the fitness of such an early hour for the lesson and the abil- ity of a popular young officer to keep up to this rather exacting standard of early rising, said nothing, but one day walked into the barrack room at 6 o’clock. The captain was not there, but the emperor showed neither annoyance nor surprise. He asked where the lesson was to be found in the books, and without more ado, to the mingled anx- fety and delight of the men, he took the lesson in hand and explained the passage in history which was the suh- ject of the day. It was nearly 7 o'clock when the captain showed himself. The kaiser returned his salute and made no allusion to his crestfallen countenance, but handed him the lesson book after pointing out how far the class had got and then left the room. Nothing more was sald or heard about the incident until a few days later, when the -captain received a handsome alarm clock, evidently from the kaiser. What the officer wrote in his letter of thanks for the gift is not recorded.—“Ireland’s Own.” —_— Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy This remedy has no superior. for coughs and colds. It is pleasant to take.
