But if you don’t like it, go to work and do something to convert it into a city that you can like. Perhaps the only thing the city needs may take root in your own brain. Figures compiled by Andrew E. Fritz, state public examiner, after checking the books of sixteen insti- tutions under the board of control, show that the per capita cost for maintenance ranges from $31.24 at the state prison to $571.34 at the Willmar farm for imebriates. The fig- ures are not comparable, however, as the state prison operates a big twine plant- and farm machinery factory, which reduce greatly the net cost of maintenance. The per capita cost at- the home for crippled children, which has no income, is $406. The farms, which are valued at $235,000, showed a profit of $105,512, or 48 per cent, for the year ending July 81, 1914, A question that can be answered with pride by but a few is, how many farmers around Bemidji are you ac- dcquainted with, and with how many are you really on friendly terms? Don’t you know that our >farmers are one:-of ‘the greatest and £gmost : valuable: human -assets of this community? -Don’t you- know that “without them-we would have no city to: speak: of, ‘that -we would be just a-dot.on the-map; or-not on it at all? »And-don’t you think it is to our in- i-terest—to: your:interest—to know the cfarmer ‘better, to:-make friends with him, to give him a ‘genuinely hearty welcome every time he comes to town? “Shouldn’t' we -make him feel >that thisis his town, as well as ours? There is=not-a -higher ‘type or more ‘energetic- class--of farmers in exist- s ence ‘than those of our own commu- nity. “There is still room for a closer - 'relationship.

SECRETARY OF U. S. -ACHOO . ASSOCIATION ‘MAKES STATEMENT New York, Aug. 3.—P. F. Jerome visited at his office, 126 East 27th street, and asked for authentic state- ment concerning the U. S. Hay Fever association, of which he is secretary, sneezed, and called a stenographer, sneezed again, and dictated the fol- lowing: Reverend Guy. Roberts is the pres- ident of the United States Hay Fever association, which meets in conven- tion, -September 2-3, in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. Rev. Roberts was formerly the pastor of the large Methodist church in Bethle- hem. He is active in promoting plans for the entertainment of the nearly three thousand hay fever vic- tims who annually visit Bethlehem and Maplewood for relief from the onslaught of sneezing and weeping. ‘While Rev. Roberts is hailed as the “Main Sneezer” of the Hay Fever association, curiously enough he is not a ‘“sneezer.” For the first thirty- five years of this popular organiza- tion the office of the president was filled by a qualified veteran, Ex-Pres- ident C. E. Delemator of Newport, R. 1, who preced President Roberts, urged to the convention to elect a remarks with sneezes. 'In the old days it was not unusual to declare a recess until the interrupting sneez- ers had quieted down. The oldest sneezer on the records of the association was M. Richard Muckle, of Philadelphia, who died. during the past year, at the age of ninety. He was president of the as- sociation from 1878 to 1883, and did much to make Bethlehem famous as a haven of refuge for the hay fever- tion of Col. Muckle that the famous “experience meeting” of the annual convention-was started. - At this ses- phabetical ‘list the names of fifty- seven or ‘more varieties of ‘‘cures”. and the delegates applaude their fa- year -a delegate from Philadelphia suffered for seventeen years, but high brow delegate said: “A; man never knows how much he has in his then he wonders where it-all comes quoted the classic cure suggested by +Cream Cake, 1 lflelamo alarge number of women mlll"l‘he Coo“lfis ‘Book” 'showed dll t be their favorite cake recipe.

The hay feverites accept their tor- tures with good humor. No one laughs more about the affliction' than one who has it, as is illustrated by the members of the association in their annual gatherings. Despondency Due to Indigestion. “About three months ago when I ‘was suffering from indigestion which caused headache and dizzy-spells and made me feel tired and despondent, I began taking Chamberlain’s Tablets,” writes Mrs. Geo. Hon, Macedon, N. Y. “This medicine proved to be the very thing I needed, as one day's treatment relieved me greatly. I used two bottles of Chamberlain’s Tablets and they rid-me ' of this trouble.” Obtainable everywhere.— Adv. 4 Why Men Eat More Food Than:Women. That men eat 5 or 6 per cent more than women—not because they are gluttons, but because they actually re- quire that much more nourishment— appears as a result of an investigation made in the nutrition laboratory of the Carnegie institute at Washington by Francis G. Benedict and L. E. Eames, says the Literary Digest. The reason for the discrepancy seems to be that women have a smaller proportion of active tissue than:men of the same weight and more inactive material, such as fat. The investigation dis- closed that the average woman gen- erates only 1,355 heat units in- the twenty-four hours as against 1,638 pro- duced by the man, or about 2 per cent more for the latter per pound of body weight. When groups were compared after careful -selection of individuals of nearly the same height and weight the men were found to produce about 12 per cent more lieat.than women. Some men are courteous in the same way that they wear a dress suit —as though it hurt. ‘TheSweetness Lasts keep-on chewing.
