Bemidji has citizens enough to cast 1,000 votes on any election day. The Pioneer special election edi- tion was out on the street at o’clock this morning and at break- tast time every home in the city had a copy- at its door. The edition containing in a general way the poss ble outcome of the state, district and county results, together with many precincts in detail. All hands out with a shovel, pick or ax next Tuesday. The merchants will do everything but close their places of business on this day for the sole purpose of co-operating with the farmers in the repair and im- provement of country roads leading into this city. More than two hun- dred men should be on hand when the automobiles start for the point of operation next Tuesday morning. This is the first event of this kind ever suggested by our citizens, but it should not be the last. "This great co-operative movement with the farmer and the merchant should grow. They should become closer friends. They need each other. The sooner they come to realize this the quicker we will have the kind of prosperity we seek. The men are going to spend a day laboring on bad roads. Those who cannot labor are requested to bring with men who can. It will be a glorious day. It is the proper spirit and it's catching.” The whole state is doing it. This is the big day for the good roads and it should be made the most | of throughout the state. & Practical << ) Fashmn Hints / This little dress, No. 8150, would make a charming afternoon frock if fashioned of batiste, embroidered flouncing, shadow lace, embroidered crepe or voile or one of the numerous other bordercd materials which are coming .back into favor so strongly this season.

Citizens themselves, not the city authorities, are respon- sible for street litter.” A street can be littered by a few careless people mucl faster than it cin be cleaned, The proper (re.ltment for of- fenders of this type is for an of- ficer of the law to take the of- fender th hand and compel him or ler to pick up the ljtter and deposit 1t in. one of the recep- tacles provided for such waste. Another class of persons who persistently. violate the law are storckeepers who sweep * their wastes into the streets. Such of- fenders” should. be. promptly ar- rested and heavily fined.

Farreaching Effects of Street Cars In the Old World. If the steam railway brings civiliza- tion into savage countries, street cars or tramways certainly bring a measure ! of cleanliness into dirty towns. The workers, who for countless gen- erations have huddled together in filthy dens cooped up within the walls of an old town (for no man, in the.days when banditti roamed everywhere outside ar- row shot from the towers of a medie- val town, dared to be outside its gates at night), now. by the aid of tramways. can live in the country in houses the rent of which is cheap and can go in to their work in the early morning by the tramears. - What the bicyele has done for English and French workmen the tramear is doing. for the near east and far east. where the roads are not good enough for cycling: In India, in China, In Africa and in South America the tramways are great civilizing in fluences as well as money making uh dertakings. TFour tramway routes are to be laid down all starting from the Jaffa gate of Jerusalem. Oue of the lines is to run through the great business quarter out side Jerusalem, another line is to run through the new Jewish quarter be- yond the walls, and the other two tram lines will be the tourist lines. One of them is to run the six wiles out to Bethlehem and will pass many of the % % * 4;:;;41¥-M¥-;»;n»&;;;;&&vfl»»;;v{%;a&&;;x)q-;‘xtvua&n | I IF KIDNEYS ACT Says Backache is a sign you have besn eating too much meat, which forms uric acid. When you wake up with backache and dull misery in the kiduey region it gen- erally means you have been eating too much meat, says a well-known authority. Meat forms urie acid which overworks the kidneys in their eflort to filter it from the blood and they become sort of paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys get sluggish and clog you must relieve them, like you relieve your bowels; re- moving all the body’s urinous waste, elsa you have backache, sick hendnche, dizzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue is coated, and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine is cloudy, full of sediment, channels ofven get sore, water sealds and you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night. Either consult a_good, relisble physi- cian at once or get from your pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a _glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kldneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize acids in the urine so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder weakness. Jad Salts,is a life saver for reyilar meat eaters. It is inexpensive, cannot injure and makes a/delightful, effer- vescent lithia-water drink, IIHHIIIIIIIHII""' ) The Ansco is the camera 3 for first-class results by the novice or the skilled ama- _ teur.
