But every- body has been holding back because —well, because everybody else was holding back. The problem faced by the builders is simply the overcom- ing -of their fellow-citizens’ inertia. So they have all joined in an appeal to the public of Minneapolis, point- ing out the advantages of “building| now” instead of after a while. The firms explain that they can build today for $3,900 a house that in ordinary times would cost $4,700. They show that reductions for con- struction work range from 10 to 25 per cent compared with the prices that prevailed before the business de- pression came. They are not cutting under market prices for such work; they are simply pointing out the great economy of building now, while mar- ket prices are low. The situation is much the same in most other cities. Not for many years have building materials been so cheap. It is the strategic time to erect houses and stores and factor- ies and public buildings. With the inevitable wave of prosperity, prices will rise again and the money won’t g0 so far. > Meanwhile, by judicious expend- itures in constructive work, those who have the money can not only get more for it but can relieve un- employment and hasten the good times. Good Ones That Count. Enough bills have.been introduccd at the session of the legislature to keep the law-makers busy until final adjournment, April 22, and at that the number is less than that of two years ago at the same period. While the usual number of useless, unrea- sonable and silly bills have been drawn and introduced, most of them will be allowed to die in the commit- tee room, for it looks as though it is the intention of the representa- tives and senators to pass only legis- lation which is most needed and would prove of benefit. At least we have been given that impression, and hope it is correct. Up to Saturday the house had re- ceived almost 400 bills, and the sen- ate almost 300. In past sessions, on the average less than 25 per cent of the bills that have been introduced have become laws. The figures for the last four . sessions are as follows: Bills Laws .2,117 480 .2,020 511 .2,088 395 .2,227 594 This is an average of 2,113 bills to the session, and an average of 495 laws resulting therefrom. A trifle more than 23 per cent of the bills introduced become laws. Which is plenty, as a rule.

This is encouraging. The people will judge the law-mak- ing body by the quality of the meas- ures passed—not by -the number of bills introduced.—Princeton Union. —o— _ A bill has been introduced in the legislature seeking to have land held by speculators taxed on a higher classification basis than land owned by settlers and farmers. In princi- ple this is right and we hope a way can be found to make it work out in practice.” It is the hardworking farmer and his family, on adjoining land, who cause the rise in value of land held by speculators. The latter will ot work his own land. Let him then pay some taxes.—Jordan Inde. pendent. — The successful and satisfactory conclusion of the fire cases ought to be a matter of great congratulation. The Messrs. Chilgren, Koefod and Middleton took long chances in sink- ing their money in the venture, and if they had lost it would have prac- tically ruined them financially. Now that they have won, nobody will be- grudge them nything they may have made out of it, especially when it is considered that their efforts have re- | sulted in-a' couplz of:hundred tho! sands of dollars being distributed among the fire sufferers.—Baudette Region. ! y S This -grandfather: -talk, -started by President Wilson, has come home to its own cradle.

AND END ECZEMA Says this old-time Eczema rem- edy -is applied like cold cream. Any irritation or breaking out on the face, arms, legs or body when accom- panied by itching, or when the skin is dry and feverish, can be readily. over- come by applying a little bold-sulphur, says a noted dermatologist. He states that bold-sulphur instantly allays the angry itching and irritation and soothes and heals the Eczema right up leaving, the skin clear and smooth. Bold-sulphur has occupied & secure posi- tion for many years in the treatment of cutaneous disorders because of its parasite-destroying property. Nothing has ever been found to take its place in treating the irritable and inflar- matory skin affections: While not al- ways establishing a permanent cure it never fails to subdue the itehing irri- tation and drive the Eczema awn,v and it is often years later before any erup- tion again appears on the skin. Those troubled should obtain at any drug store an’ ounce of bold-sulphur, which is applied to the affected parts: in the same mauner:as -an ordinary -cold ~ream, S R————— i STOP CATARRH!

While the works of Swedish ar- tists are represented in most-of the of ‘the Panama-Pacific International{ ( galleries in Europe, America is not |- well acquainted with their art, and only twice before have Scandinavian collections been exhibited in the United States—in 1893 at the Chi- cago world’s fair and last year by the American-Scandinavian society of New York. The exhibit, which is to be shown at the Swedish® House, was made possible by the Swedish-American World’s Fair committee of San Fran- cisco, the members of which com- municated with the Swedish govern- ment. and asked for the loan of its art collections. The Swedish- government. priated 600,000 kroner for the pur- pose -and Knut' Wallenberg, -Swedish |- minister of foreign affairs, contrib- uted 50,000 kroner out of his own funds.
