B. Buckman for congress is increasing is evident from the list of papers in the Sixth district which are bearing the Buckman stnadard. Sentiment over the district is strongly in favor of returning a man to congress who has made good in years past and the majority do not want untried ma- terial representing this district in the national body. Among the papers that are sup- porting C. B. Buckman for congress, are: Laporte News. Sauk Centre Herald. Grey Eagle Gazette. Swanville News. Royalton Banner. Eagle Bend News. Brainerd Daily Dispatch. Akeley Herald-Tribune. Verndale Sun. Pillager Herald. Pine River Sentinel. Hubbard County Journal. Little Falls Transcript. Baudette Region. Kelliher Journal.

Today Honus Wagner is 42 and the United Press has sent out the following: Your forty-second milestone! We felicitate you, Honus; you’ve evaded all the Charleyhorses, Jinxes, Hoo- doos, Jonahs, and you've batted flat .300 now for almost twenty years. You will still be at it twenty years from now, it now appears; but the marvel of it all is not the average you bat; the things you bat besides the ball are what we wonder at; you, with a loaded oaken club have ham- mered out a farm and a flock of pay- ing. breweries; and there’s genuine alarm in the councils of the Money Kings at all the stocks you own, while the gold that gilds your safety vaults would make old Midas groan. You've slugged yourself. to Million- airedom; not to mention fame. May- hap you’ll live with Richard of the music writing game. He took, you know, a bunch of sickly melodies and such and pummelled out a batch of overtures that heat the Dutch; drove puny base and treble clef to thunder mighty battle and made the windows and the doors of hell and heaven rattle. The roaring forest tempest from their stringy throats he strangled and put a pair of pants upon the Art with which he wran- gled. And it may be, Sir Honus, that the bats you’ve swung to fame on are cousins of the old oak baton that Richard ’graved his name on. There- fore, today our homage, Honus, both te you and dick, for what he did with notes- and bars and you do with a stick. THE TALE OF TWO CITIES What St. Paul has, Minneapolis ‘wants and what Minneapolis has, St. Paul wants. This is plainly evident. Although only twelve miles apart St. Paul and Minneapolis now have separate weather bureaus. The orig- inal single station which Uncle Sam said' could efficiently handle the weather conditions in both cities was in St. Paul. People in Minneapolis constantly taunted the St. Paul sta- tion with sending weather reports destructive to their bazaars, fetes and civie' turnouts. Minneapolis people just wouldn’t accept the weather sent them from St. Paul so Uncle Sam gave in and established another sta- tion- in Minneapolis. BABY WEEK A Baby Week campaign will be in- stituted in this state March 4 to 11. Bemidjl should take pyt m gm; campaign. The services of some speaker who can present the various| phases of baby welfare to one or more gatherings, should be secured and meetings held. An investigation and report should be made upon the con- ditions of the local milk supply, birth. registration and infant mortality of| the community. The Minnesota.Pub- lic Health association offers speakers during Baby Week. Why not take advantage of its offer? DRY SENTIMENT INCREASING Dry sentiment is increasing not alone in the state of Minnesota but in many other states. In Michigan three thousand three hundred and twenty-six saloons will be forced out of business if a state-wide prohibition amendment is passed in November. Of these about forty per cent are lo- cated in Detroit. Already nearly 42 per cent of the entire population of the state is in dry territory through the operat.on of the county local op- tion law. FRANK B. KELLOGG Many country editors of the state of Minnesota have called upon Frank B. Kellogg to become a candidate for United States senator and have pledged to him their support. The state editors gave the state and na- tion Senator Cushman K. Davis and we believe that they will give the state and nation a Senator Frank B. Kellogg.

The same standard of purity, strength and excellence, prescribed by Dr. Kflmer many years ago, is main- tained in every bottle of Swamp- Root. Swamp-Root is scientifically com- pounded from vegetable herbs. It is not a stimulant and is taken in tea- spoonful doses. It is not recommend- ed for everything. According to verified testimony it is nature’s great helper in relieving and overcoming kidney, liver and bladder troubles. If you suffer, don’t delay another day. Go to your nearest druggist now and get a bottle. All drug stores sell‘it in two sizes—fifty cents and one dollar. However, if you wish first to try this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y., for a sample bottle. When writ- ing be sure and mention the Bemidji Pioneer.—Adv. . BEMIDJT PEOPLE GET INSTANT ACTION Those who have used it in Bemidji are astonished at the INSTANT ac- tion of simple buckthorn bark, glyec- erine, etc., as mixed in Adler-i-ka. Because it acts on BOTH lower and upper bowel, ONE SPOONFUL Adler- i-ka relieves almost ANY CASE of constipation, sour stomach or gas. It removes much surprising foul mat- ter that a few doses often relieve or prevent appendicitis. A short treat- ment helps chronic stomach trouble. French & Co., druggists.—Adv. About Bronchitis. One | { of the liver, stomach and bowels are|: ‘When a cold extends to the bron- chial tubes it is called bronchitis. For this disease Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy is excellent. Mrs. Will Har- ris, Zanesville, Ohio, says of it, “Last winter I was bothered for several weeks with bronchitis. I also had a dreadful dry hacking cough that clung to me so persistently that I be- came alarmed. Finally I had the good fortune to learn of Chamber- lain’s Cough Remedy. It relieved the irritation of my throat and two bot- tles of it cured me.” For sale by all dealers.—Adv. GHICHESTER S PILLS =Hl ek a gnu honton a»fl)(mld‘fze'x?
