The state association will be asked to join the Northern Min- nesota Editorial association at its Du- luth outing next summer and from all indications the party will be most enjoyable. Let’s all -join and help make it a success. Duluth will do its share. Relatives Should Pay. There is a lot of common sense in the fight to shoulder a part of the burden of caring for the insane from the state to the relatives and estates of patients, which will be up again soon in the senate. The senate committee of public buildings recommended for passage the bill by Senator Henry N. Benson of $t. Peter providing that wherever patients have property or relatives who can pay, $10 a month shall be contributed toward their support in stzte hospitals for the insane. “This bill has been requested by the state board of control, which figures that it will relieve the state of a considerable burdn of expense, both directly and indirectly; directly in ccmpelling the finaneially able to pay a share of the expense, and indirectly in ridding the hospitals of patients that would be cared for at home if a charge were made at the insane asylums. The board declares that many pa- tients who are harmless and could be cared for at home will be cared for there if a charge is imposed, and it has been correctly informed.

J., Feb. 20.—Bachel- ors and cats will stand in jeopardy it two bills pending in ‘the present| legislature should receive’ favorable action by the solons. The former will be affected in a financial way, and the felines face extinction as a species in- very short order if the ‘measures are placed upon the statute books of New Jersey. Assemblyman - Ostrom, Democdrat, introduced the bachelor bill, which provides that all unmarried males over the née of ‘30" years shall pay an annual tax of $50, provided, how- | ever, that they are earning at least $50 a week. A Republican, 0. H. Hammond, is responsible for the contemplated war on the cats. He has put in a bill which calls for licensing at $1 a head. The spon- sor of the proposed law wants to elim- inate the hundreds of stray animals that prey upon young game, such as rabbits and birds. { Assemblyman Singer would estab- lish a state board of barbers to regu- late the trade, legalize boxing in this state and permit the playing of base— ball on Sundays through bills he has: introduced. Senator Egan would al- so legalize all sports on Sundays. Senator Hutchinson, of Mereer, would abolish the death penalty as capital punishment, and substitute life imprisonment at hard labor. Among the other interesting pro- positions before the present legisla- ture are the bills to compel the read- ing of the Bible in the public schools; permitting the hunting of deer with dogs; reimburse convicts for state road work at the rate of 50 certs a day, the money to be given to de- pendent wives and minor - -children, and increase the bill to compensation to workmen for the loss of a thumb or hand incurred while engaged' at work. Assemblyman Stevens of Cape. May ‘would boost the pay of the lawmakers from $500 to $1,000 a year.

BACK FROM THE FIRING LINE First Aid to the Wounded. Paris, Feb. 20. - At almost every station on the railroads you will see men shattered and wrecked for life; men who must face the future hor- ribly mutilated, and yet they ac- cept their fate without'a murmur of | complaint or bitterness. It is the’ same in England, in France and, I suppose, in Russia, that all soldiers are bearing their sufferings with the greatest of fortitude. The best aid these men have is within themselves. The human body will best resist infection from bullets when it is healthy, strong, active and working. The best aid to this'con- dition is a vegetable tonic and altera- tive that will first put the stomach. and blood right, for these are depen- dent on one another. Good stomach: means good blood, and likewise good- blood means good ‘stomach. Dr. Pierce’s Golden "Medical Dis- covery helps the stomach to do its work naturally and properly, stimu- lates the liver. The system is freed- from poisons. The blood is purified. Every organ is rejuvenated. This ‘‘Medical Discovery” of Dr. Pierce, is free from alcohol or narcotics. It is-§ made from the roots and barks of American forest plants with triple" refined glycerine, and is the best blood purifier, because ‘it banishes: from the blood all poison and:im- pure matter. It dissolves-impure de- posits and carries them out, as it does all impurities through the bow- els, kidneys and skin. If you have: unsteady nerves, or a pimple skin," get Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Dis- covery today and start at-once to re-* place your impure bleod with the kind that puts energy and-ambition: into you and brings back youth and vigor.—Adv: ces.
