One subscriber who presented coupons yesterday for half a dozen dictionaries for different employes and members of his family said he deemed it mnecessary that a dictionary should progress with the language just as a newspaper does. The world moves rapidly these days, and only the New Universities is apace with today’s growth of the language. The departments handling this great educational offer are being kept busy handing out the books. More reserves had to be rushed last night to fill up the rapidly depleted stock. At this rate the first and limited edi- tion will soon be exhausted. While readers are eager for the Thursday and sent postage pald to any address for $1.60 in advance.

Bemidji extends her most cordial welcome to the North-Central Min- nesota Educational association which opens a two days’ session in Bemidji today. The city’s gates swing wide. Bemidji appreciates the opportuni- ty to entertain the heads of the knowledge factories of this section of the state. Bemidji today is the biggest little city in the northwest. It is only about twenty years old and it has a population of about 7,000 people. In Bemidji is to be located the state’s sixth normal school. The site for the school includes in the neigh- borhood of 22 acres and overlooks Lake Bemidji. The site is located about three-quarters of a mile from the heart of the city and with the ex- ception of three small buildings, is free from buildings and is still lo- cated in its natural state, beautifully wooded. City residences are built in close proximity to the groungds. The site is of sufficient size to ac- commodate all the buildings, main school, model building, heating plant and dormitories for years to come, and all the buildings will be con- structed on .an elevation so as to overlook and face the lake. There is sufficient room for athletic grounds, tennis court, etc., in fact in the opinion of the state normal school board members there is noth- ing lacking and that the site of the normal school is the most beautifully located and ideal of any in the state. Construction of the school, it is expected, will be begun next year. With the establishing.of the nor- mal school in Bemidji, -the public schools of North Central Minnesota will take first place throughout the state. So Bemidji bids her honored guests of today a most cordial welcome, hoping that they will enjoy their stay in Bemidji and hoping that the im- pressions they carry away will be pleasant. We hope that they will come again to this “Magie City of the North.” A CLARION .CALL. Elihu Root, former secretary of state, sounded a clarion call to his countrymen Tuesday night when in a masterly address he indicted the Democratic administration,, saying: “We have not been following the path of peace. We have been blind- ly stumbling along the road that, continued, will lead to inevitable war. Our diplomacy has dealt with symptoms, and ignored causes. The great decisive question upon which our peace depends is the question whether the rule of action applied to Belgium is to be tolerated. If it is to be tolerated by the civilized world, this nation will have to fight for its life. There will be no es- cape. This is the critical point of defense for the peace of America.” BASKET BALL. Is the sport of basket ball losing its popularity? Bemidji.has always.been known as a strong basket ball city. Last year, besides having a high school. quint which gained fame, the city had an independent team which was consid- ered, one of the strongest in the northwest. Games were played.with the fastest teams in the country. This geason, however, all attempts to form, an independent team have failed. This ‘year the high school quint, whieh is, fighting for the state high| school championship, fails to draw the crowds that it should. There, is a notable falling off in interest .in the game. Let’s revive the old interest and get hehind the high:school team and help;them: win the state title. Next Saturday night at,the armory they will;meet /the fast quint of the St. Cloud high schoel.. Every .good: eit- izen ;should attend the game.. book on account of its being authori- tative and complete, its absolute new- ness appeals to thousands. It has been many a long year since an ac- tually new dictionary was given to the public.’ The New Universities Dictionary is new in all the word im- plies—new in contents, new in type, new in arrangements of helps to word study. Particularly is it new in mak- ing the study of today’s English easy for young people who are so situated that they cannot attend schools and obtain individual instruction. Upn- aided, a young man or woman em- ployed may learn the correct use nf the English of modern business and society if they but follow the direc- tions of the great university teach- ers whose articles on ‘“‘Standard Eng- lish,” “Practical Syntax” (which means: How to make good sentences) “Punctuation” and “Etymology” ap- pear, plainly written in simple Eng- lish, in this book. Even the word “Etymology” which looks harsh and forbidding to a be- ginner, is made simple if one reads the article by Clark S. Northrup, Ph. D., instructor in English in Cornell university. Professor Northrup’s ar- ticle tells how to learn where our words were found, why we adopted them, and how we changed them to mean what we wanted to say. That’s what Etymology is and this paper distributes this dictionary because it wants every reader to know all about the language. Just What You Need.

BAUDETTE RIVER BEING BRIDGED Baudette, Minn., Feb. 17.—The Canadian Northern railroad com- menced work on the bridge between this place and Spooner across the Baudette river on Tuesday. It will be a steel span, fifty feet wide and two feet higher than the present bridge which was condemned some time ago by the railway and ware- house commission. This is the THE NEWEST RETEDY FOR Backache, Rhelgmatism and Dropsy. Kidney, Bladder and Uric Acid troubles bring misery to max:{v. When the kidneys are weak or diseased, these natural filters do not cleanse the blood sufflciently, and the poisons are carried to all parts of the body. There follow depression, aches and pains, heaviness, drowsincss, irrita- bility, headaches, chilliness and rheu- matism. Insome people there are sharp Ea.ins in the back and loins, distressing ladder disorders and sometimes obstin- ate dropsy. The uric acid sometimes forms into gravel or kidney stones. When the uric acid affects the muscles and Joints, it causes . lumbago, rheumatism, gout or sciatica. This is the time to try “Anuric.” During digestion uric acid is absorbed into the system from meat eaten, and even-from some vegetables. The poor kidneys get tired and. backache- begins. This 1s a good time to take ®Anuric,” the new discovery of Dr. Pierce for Kid- ney trouble and” Backache. ~Neglected kidney trouble is responsible for many deaths, and Insurance Company examin= ing doctors always test the water of an xfivg}icam before a policy will be issued. ave you ever set aside a bottle of water for twenty-four hours? ment or settling somctimes indicates kid- ney trouble. The true nature and char- acter of discascs, especially those of the kidneys and urinary organs, can often be determined by a careful chemical an- al{sis and . microscopical examination— this is done by expert chemists of the Medical Staff of the Invalids’ Hotel. If you wish to know your condition send a 8ample of your'water to Doctor Pierce’s Invalids’ Hotel, Buffalo; N. Y., and de- scribe your symptoms. It will be ex- amined without any expense to you, and Doctor Pierce or his gml! of Assisting Physicians will inform: you truthfully. heavy sedi- ENOW THYSELF } Read all about yourself, your system, hysiology, anatémy, ‘hygiena, simple lome cures, ete., in the “Common Sense Medical Adviser® a book_ of 1008 poges.
