Join the Good Fellow club, and you’ll be proud of it. Minnesota school teachers want the new public school act to include provision for a teachers’ pension system somewhat similar to those maintained in Minneapolis, St. Paul and Duluth. A committee of the Minnesota Educational association is presenting the matter to the Min- nesota Educational commission, which is preparing a bill for an act reorganizing the entire school sys- tem and the members of the commis- sion are said to look with favor on the suggestion. The plan contem- plates a tax levy of one-tenth of a mill for a teachers’ retirement fund, to which the teachers also are to con- tribute a share of their pay. Teach- ers will be eligible after twenty-five year’s servicee The movement is meeting more or less opposition among teachers who object to the contributing of a portion of their pay, and they ask, “Who wants to be a teacher for 25 years?” Are Sure to Land. According to authoratative Demo- cratic sources, two appointments have been decided upon by Gover- nor-elect Hammond and will be an- nounced shortly after his return to St. Paul frem Washington. These are: Cemmissioner of insurance: Neil M. Cronin of Minneapolis. Executive clerk: Herman E.

The county officers should be busi- ness agents of all the people of a county, and there is no sense in in- jecting a political qualification. The man who attempts to repeal that wise provision of the present law, will be the storm center for public indignation.—St. Cloud Journal- Press. ) —— If you want to live in the kind of a town like the kind of a town you like you needn’t slip your clothes in a grip and start on a long, long hike. It’s a knock at yourself when you (knock your town. It isn’t your 'town*it’s you. Real towns are not made by men afraid-.lest somebody else gets ahead. When everyone works and nobody shirks, you can build a town from the dead. And if while you make your personal stake your neighbors can make one, too,’ your town will be what you want to see. It isn’t your town—it’s you.— ‘Warroad Pioneer. Miss Margaret E. Knight, who died recently at the age of 75 years, was the first woman in the United States to obtain a patent, being granted one on a paper bag in 1870. California is the only state that produces borax, magnesia and chro- mite and is the leading state in the production of asphalt, fluorspar and quicksilver. WOMAN ON THE BATTLEFIELD. What she gives to a nation. Shall we say that women contrib- ute only the bandages, the nursing, cheering and comforting the wound- ed? No! They contribute the fight- ers! What sort of help and inspira- tion can a woman be who is enfeeb- led and broken-down by diseases and weaknesses peculiar to her sex. Can she hope to be a capable mother or an efficient wife? The mighty restorative power of Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription speedily causes all womanly troubles to disappear—compels the organs to properly perform their natural func- tions, corrects displacements, over- comes irregularities, removes pain and misery at certain times and brings back health and strength to nervous, irritable and exhausted wo- men. It is a wonderful prescription pre- pared only from nature’s roots and herbs with no alcohol to falsely stim- ulate and no narcotics to wreck the nerves. It banishes pain, headache, backache, low spirits, hot flashes, dragging-down sensation, worry and sleeplessness surely and without loss of time. Why should any woman continue {to worry, to lead a miserable exist- ence, when certain help is at hand? What Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Pre- seription has done for thousands it muelson of St. Paul. In addition Mr. Hammond will not disturb for the present the fol- lowing Republicen officials whose terms extend to January 1., 1917: ,dress Doctor Pierce, Invalid’s Hotel, Albert H. Turrittin, state superin- tendent of banks. Andrew E. Fritz, public examiner. Both were appointed a vear ago by Governor Eberhart for three yoars, the term under the law. They have never been confirmed by the state senate and should the new governor so desire he could oust them. | What About That Attic? | In almost every home there is an accumulation of old clothing. out- grown, ‘“out of style,”” and partly nnt nearly outworn. Some of it is be- ing worn by those who can afford new clothes and who ought to put the money, and the old clothing, where they are needed, to stimulate | trade and relieve the suffering. But most of these old clothes are only cluttering the attics and in- creasing the fire risk. Why not rummage the attics and cellars and send the bundles to the| poor committee of the Associated Charities, insuring their distribution under proper auspices and ecare, in this way giving prompt and practical relief to much suffering among the unfortunates of this community.

(EP UL ACD 0T OFJOS Tells Rheumatism Sufferers. to Eat Less Meat and Take Salts. Rheumatism is easier to avoid than to cure, states a well-known authority. We are advised to dress warmly; keep the feet dry; avoid exposure; eat less meat, but drink plenty of good water. Rheumatism is a direct result of eating too much meat and other rich foods that produce uric acid which is absorbed into the blood. It is the function of the kidneys to filter this acid from the blood and cast it out in the urine; the pores of the skin are also a means of freeing the blood of this impurity. In damp and chilly cold weather the skin pores are closed thus forcing the kidneys to do double work, they become weak and sluggish and fail to eliminate the uric acid which keeps accumulating and circulat- ing through the system, eventually set- tling in the joints and muscles causing stiffness, soreness and pain called rheu- matism, At the first twinge of rheumatism get from any pharmacy about four ounces of Jad Salts; put a tablespoon- ful in a glass of water and drink before breakfast each morning for a week. This is said to eliminate uric acid by stimulating the kidneys to normal ac- tion, thus ridding the blood of these impurities. Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia and is used with excellent results by thou- sands of folks who are subject to rheu- matism. Here you have a pleasant, effervescent lithia-water drink which helps overcome uric acid and is bene- ficial to your kidneys as well.
