The Pests Are a Veritable Plague In Bolivia and Brazil. Insect pests are a plague on the boundary of Bolivin and Brazil. *“In #ke forests and on the smaller rivers,” writes Commander Herbert A. Ed- ‘wards, R. R., in the Geographical Journal, “life is made almost unbear- sble. Ants are met with everywhere; they swarm over one's person in hun- dreds. and most of them bite most sav- agely. There is one kind of red ant, ‘wkich lives in trees hollowed out by themselves. whose bite is like a touch with a red hot iron. If a person inad- vertently touches or leans up against ame of these trees the ants swarm out wpon him instantly. and his life for bours afterward is a long drawn out msery. Then there are the huge ants, ealled tucanderas, ene and a half inch- @ In length; they live in the forks of trees. Their bite is particularly pain- ful, and causes the part affected to swell up as if poisoned. One of our mgoldiers was incapacitated for several days by a bite of a tucandera.

The Lotus Eaters, The race of people to whom tie name “lotus eaters” was applied was a Lybian tribe, known to the Greeks as early as the time of Romer. Herod- otus describes their country and says that a caravan route led from it to Egypt. The lotus still grows there in great abundance—a prickly shrub bear- ing a fruit of a sweet taste, compared by Herodotus to that of the date. It is still eaten by the natives, and a kind of wine is made from its juice. Your Stomach Bad?

Shortly after the Revolution Benja- min Tappan, son of a wealthy Boston merchant and the original owner of what is now Portage county, O., en tered his fathor's tract in the west ¢ and spent the winter there. Other set- | tlers joined him, and a settlement was begun, which had the dignity of a town atn time when a single log cabin at each place marked the present sites of the cities of Cleveland and Buffalo. The place was one of singular natural beauty, and the question of a name soon arose. 3 Now, it happend that at this time a younger brother of Benjamin Tappan’s and his wife were in Italy and came upon the old town of Ravenna. De- lighted with the place, the young bride expressed to her husband the wish that somewhere in the new world there might arise a town worthy to bear the name of the wonderful- old Italian city. The husband immediately thought of his brother in the Ohio wilds and at ohce dispatched a letter in which he pictured the beauties of the Italian city and expressed the wish that the town then arising in the wilderness be named in its honor. Many months later Benjamin Tap- pan, despairing of finding a suitable name for the town, was about to yield to the wishes of his neighbors and be- stow the name of Tappan upon it when the letter arrived. So, instead of Tappan, the town was named Ra- venna, which name it still proudly bears.—Ladies’ Home Journal. Pionesr wants—one half cent a word cash. IMPORTANGE OF HEALTHY KIDNEYS : Bemidji Readers Should Learn to Keep the Kidneys Well. The kidneys have a big work to do. All the blood in the body is coursing through the kidneys constantly to beI freed of poisonous mater. it is a heavy | g enough task when the kidneys are well, but a cold, chill, fever or some theughtless exposure is likely to irri- tate, inflame and congest the kidneys and interrupt the purifying work. Then the aching frequently begins and is often accompanied by some ir- regularity of the urine—too frequent vassages, sediment or retention. Thou- sands testify to the wonderful merit| of Doan’s Kidney Pills, a remedy for the kidneys only, that has been used in kidney troubles 50 years. You will make no mistake in following this Bemidji citizen’s advice. Henry Revor, 808 Bemidji avenue, Bemidji, Minn., says: “I have taken Doan’s Kidney Pills procured from Barker's Drug Store, with splendid results. I had a lame back, together with pains across my loins. Every move I made caused me pain. Doan’s Kidney Pills removed the trouble.” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.
