ST. LOUIS COUNTY This county, established in 1855, derives its name from the St. Louis river which flows through it into Lake Superior. The name was probably given to the river by Verendrye who from 1731 on explored the country from Pigeon river and Rainy Lake to the Saskatchewan and Missouri rivers, establishing numerous trading posts. In 1749 the king of France con- ferred the cross of St. Louis on the explorer in recognition of the importance of his dis- coveries. The oldest map on which the name appears is one of 1763.

Minnesota has advanced to the front rank in the war against tuber- culosis and Minnesota’s methods are commanding the attention of workers from all parts of the United States, according to Dr. I. J. Murphy of the Minnesota Public Health association. When scored on the item of sana- torium beds available, Minnesota, by a margin of ten points, surpasses New York state which has for years been the leader. The minimum number of beds aimed at by all the states is one for cach death; New York (not in- cluding New York City) has made provisions for 2,400 beds, but has 5,- 400 deaths annually; Minnesota has made provision for 1,200 beds but has only 2,200 deaths annually; Min- nesota is the first state to pass the 50 per cent mark in this achieve- ment; Minnesota’s score is 55 per cent and New York’s score is 45 per cent. Although Minnesota surpasses New York in the item of beds available she does not surpass her in the por- tion of the state represented by - counties committed to the sanator- ium project. This is to be expected because as a whole rural Minnesota is not as thickly settled as is rural New York. However, the Minnesota counties build proportionally larger institutions and accommodate urgent cases from outside counties; 32 of New York’s 57 counties have voted to build, 33 of Minnesota’s counties have done likewise. Only two other states are given a place in the class with New York and Minnesota; they are Michigan and Wisconsin. The proportion of the population represented by coun- ties committed to the sanatorium project in these states is as follows: New York, 79 per cent, Minnesota 62 per cent, Michigan 60 per cent and Wisconsin 40 per cent. These four states have adopted substantially the same system for state and county sanatoria. New York was the first to declare war on tuberculosis, Min- nesota was the last; handicapped in starting the sanatorium project by the space of three years, Minnesota has overtaken and passed the leader. Although these four states have adopted substantially the same sys- tem, the details of the law, which place the plan in operation, differ widely in each. Judging from the very slow progress made in several other states which adopted radically different systems—many of them starting as early as New York did— the plan followed by these four states works the best of all. GOOD ROADS DAY. Today is ““Good Roads Day” in the state of Minnesota by proclamation by Governor Burnquist. 5 Today Minnesotans should mobil- ize in large numbers to improve roads. : s TWO MORE ELECTIONS. There are only two more elections to be held in Beltrami county this vear. Next August will be held the county option election and in Novem- ber will be the general election. We hope that there will be more interest in these two elections than was shown in the primary election of vesterday. KKK KK KKK KKK KKK * NOTES ON MONDAY’S * X PRIMARY ELECTION * R e The smallest vote in years was cast at Monday’s primary election. Many people had little interest and did not even have knowledge of who were the candidates for office or the offices for which candidates were to be nom- inated. The vote in Bemidji indi- cated very plainly that some new ma- chinery of primary election must be constructed. The vote in Bemidji totaled 493. This was divided as follows: 145 votes in the first ward; 144 in the second ward; 104 in the third ward, and 100 in the fourth ward. One reason for the small vote in Bemidji is that very few of the So- cialists turned out to cast ballots. Chief of Police Frank Ripple was unable to vote. He moved to a farm near the mnorth end of Bemidji av- enue and lost his vote at Monday’s election. “General Apathy” was in com- mand of Monday’s election. The Red Lake Agency gave Sena- tor Clapp an excellent endorsement. He sccured 109 votes there. Other votes were Lindbergh 3, Eberhart 1 and Kellogg 3. The voting of Duluth dry puts the largest oasis in Northern Minnesota in the “dry” column. It is an ex- cellent victory for the ‘“dry” work- ers. Baudette and Spooner are the biggest ‘“wettest” spots in the north- ern part of the state now and it is believed that they will be dried up at the county option election in Bel- trami county, August 14. Prohibition and Democratic votes were few and far between in Bemidji and Beltrami county. $1,500,000 COLLECTION OF DRAWINGS HERE FROM PARIS (By United Press) New York, June 20.—The famous EXERCISE AND GRECIAN BEAUTY WHAT IT MEANS. Many thousands of women are now= a-days paying attention to physical cyl~ ture and the proper exercisc of their body muscles, where, thirty years ago or fifty years ago there was no thought expended on this science which is quite necessary to physical beauty. The reason the Greeks, both men and women, excelled in beautiful and sym- metrical forms was because of the at- tention they paid to the proper exer- cise. Then, too, they were untram- meled by corsets, shoes and the in- conveniences of ‘clothing. To the minds of some women the idea of physical exercise conveys only the idea of hard fatigning work. Mild exercise con- tinued day after day is best for the body and spirits and health. With- out proper exercise there cam be no health, and without health there can| be no real beauty. There is no stronger proof of the sound remedial value of Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription than that it re- stores the wasted form to its wonted roundness. The mighty restorative power of Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription speedily causes all womanly troufiles to disa pear—compels the organs to properly perform their natural functions, cor- rects displacements, overcomes irregu~ larities, removes pain and misery at certain times and brings back health and strength to nervous, irritable and exhausted women. It is a wonderful prescription pre- pared only from Nature’s roots with glycerine, with no alcohol to falsely stimulate. It banishes pain, headache, backache, low spirits, hot flashes, drag- ging-down sensations, worry and sleep- Iessness surely and without loss of time. Sick women are invited to consult Dr. Pierce, by letter, free. Address Dr, Pierce, Invalids’ Hotel, Buffalo, N.

The collection comprises about 250 pieces-and has a value approximating $1,500,000. “Exercising the refined knowledge and taste of a true connoisseur,” Mr. Duveen said, “this well-known col- lector of Lyons, who died a few years ago, gathered a unique assemblage of important French and Italian Re- naissance works of the sixteenth cen- tury. “M. Charbrieres-Arles took the greatest pride in his art possessions and always welcomed visits of ama- teurs and artists to what was a veri- table museum of these rare and choice objects, so that his collection became celebrated.” VAN SANT PREDICTS A PROHIBITION AMENDMENT (By United Press) St. Paul, Minn., June 20.—Before leaving today for Rock Island, IIl., his birthplace, to speak at the one hundredth anniversary on Fort Arm- strong, Samuel R.
