Read what a Bem- idji citizen says: Mrs. P. Schoendeman, 814 Bemidji Ave., Bemidji, Minn., says: “One of the family had trouble from his back and kidneys, caused.by hard work. He suffered badly from lame- ness across his loins. Whenever he stooped he could hardly get up again. Two years ago, while living in Brainerd, he was having so much trouble that he knew he had to do something. Doan’s Kidney Pills were recommended to him as the best remedy for kidney disorders and he began taking them. In a short time he was rid of the trouble. Since then he has taken Doan’s Kidney Pills occasionally and has always had quick relief. We have great faith in this remedy.” Price 60c, at all dealers.

He states that if it ever becomes necessary for him to return to this place, he will be pleased to do so. Miss South- worth will visit friends and relatives at the twin cities, Eau Claire, Winona and La Crosse, and from the lntter4 place will go to Miles City, Montana, and to Blackfoot, Idaho, where she ‘will visit relatives before joining her parents at Elk River. ki*i*i*{i’i{*&*ii * NEW YORK FIRE HORSES EXTINCT IN 1918 X KKK KK KKK KKK KKK XR By Carlton Ten Eyck. (Unitea Press) New York, Jan. 18.—The New York fire horse in 1918 will be as extinct as the dinoceras, the dinichthys and other animals of that uncertain age. Today there are but a thousand horses in the fire department and following the policy of replacing the picturesque animal with the more practical motor driven vehicles, the last horse will have disappeared in |\ three years from now. Sentiment does not run one, two or three with a municipal govern- ment when it decides to be economical 2ad frequent tests have shown that gasoline is more reasonable than oats and that the wear and tear on ma- chinery is less than on horse flesh. The actual figures are interesting. The tractor which is used to haul the fire engine costs $3,600, and the upkeep is $414.60 a year. Three horses that do the same work cost. $1,050 for the three, and $900 a year for upkeep. A traetor will last’ for 20 years; a horse But seven years. One other advantage of the motor drawn apparatus, an advancement not to be despised in the skyseraper district, is the ease with which all the fire companies may bhe mobilized in a short time. The youngsters of the future will have to look elsewhere for imagina- tive material 'with the passing of the fire horse. The European war has touched the local people in an unusual quarter— the Y. M. C. A. In time of peace abroad, it is customary for the sec- retaries of this organization to spend a great deal of time with the young men between 15 and 45, who come to this country. Normally, 82 per cent of all the immigrants are between those ages. But the warring countries, of course, | are not permitting able-bodied men to leave their country.

He sees a hopeful sign in the the fight which theif former country- men abroad are putting up against the Germans and that the American Poles feel more confidence in them- selves as a result. 3 Commeénting upon : the often-ex- pressed fear of a tidal wave of immi- gration after the war is over, Rob- erts has this to say: «“I gee that in Washington they are dreading the flood: of immigration that will arrive after the war. Well, T don’t believe there’is any flood com- ing, although I believe a torrent of immigration then would be a good thing, as business will boom and there will not only be no unemploy- ment, but also a demand for labor that will far exceed the supply.” Notice.
