S R ETEEESESEERE R R R * LIBERTY * K E KKK KK KK KK Mrs. Frances Helbig Peirce was a business visitor in Bemidji Monday. J. V. Jadlowski and son, Thomas, went to Minneapolis last Monday on business. R. B. Hayes was a Bemidji busi- ness visitor Monday. Byron Button returned from North Dakota Wednesday. J. W. McKee was a Bemidji visitor last Wednesday. George Peirce was a Bemidji busi- ness visitor last Wednesday. This is the first time Mr. Peirce has been in Bemidji in many months and it is hoped that the trip will not retard his recovery to health. . Mrs. Calvin Pitman of Bemidji re- turned for a short visit with her adopted mother, Mrs. Cornelia Peirce. Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Burke and Mrs. Charles Anderson of Nymore autoed to Liberty Thursday to see their neighbors, Mr. and Mrs. Al- fred Helbig, who are farming it for a couple of weeks. They struck the wrong roads several times but final- ly landed safely. Incidentally, they got a geography lesson on Liberty. Louis Hanson was a Bemidji busi- ness visitor Thursday. Mrs. Myrtle Spore and son, John, were Puposky visitors Saturday. Arthur Crapo was a Bemidji vis- itor Friday. A. P. Blom was a Bemidji visitor Friday. Mrs. Cornelia Peirce was taken ill Sunday. And that reminds us that Mrs. Peirce might rightly be named “The grand old lady of Liberty.” One of the first settlers in this sec- tion, she has lived through all the hardships of pioneer days. She has been the nurse, housekeeper and has taken the place of doctor in the homes when doctors and nurses could not be gotten. To many of the children she s ‘“Grandma’ . Peirce for she helped them make their debut into this world and al- ways takes a kindly‘interest in them afterward. Four times during the last few years the death angel has visited the Peirce home and taken her husband, two sons and a daugh- ter. These deaths were always pre- ceded by long illness but this noble woman met these sorrows with a strength of. character which ought to inspire every one who knows her. It surprises ug when she is sick but the wonder should be how she has kept mentally and physically so strong and so sweetly optimistic in her outlook on life. It is after knowing such characters as-*‘Grand- ma’” Peirce that one is fully con- vinced that the names of all the heroes and heroines do not appear on history’s page.

How many times we hear of compars- tively yo ing away when theyyw ve lived i)e 70 or 80 years of age. This fatal work is usually attributed to the kidneys, as, when the kidneys degenerate, it causes auto-in- toxication. The moreinjurious the paisons ing thru_ the Iddnefi the quicker will noble or, degenerated, and theJsooner they decay. 1t is thus lt',ihe vmes; policy, 0.3 prevne‘nt premature old age an mote long life, to Hfim the work of tg;o kidneys. This can done by drinking plenty of pure water all day long, and occasionally ing a little Anuric before meals. can be obtained at almost any drug store. Anuric will overcome such conditions as rheumatism, dropsical swellings, cold exs tremities, scalding and burning urine and sleeplessness due to constant arising from bed at night. WELL-KNOWN MINNESOTA WOMAN SPEAKS. §t. Paul, Minn,—Lhad beon troubled with disordered kid- neys for about two i, years. My back i1, ached terribly, side ained, and. 1 had l requent stools. Ilet !it run on until just re- i centlflwhenlread of Dr. Pierce’s Anuric. I have taken the Anuric but a short = time, but am now fecling fine. -My side and back have stopped paining, the stools are not so frequent, and I sleep well at night now, which I couldn’t do before. I certainly advise anyone suffering from kidney dis- orders to use Anuric.”—Mass. L, G~ FILLAN, 164 E. Congress Street.
