Human secpticism tends to increase. The proportion of suckers to the population has changed since Barnum’s epigram. Or perhaps he overestimated human gullibility. Anyhow, there are many Bemidji townsmen who have a great reluctance to take others at their own valution. If they arrogate to themselves a sort of superior being they have to do something to prove it, If one claims his intentions are excellent, when his conduct looks suspicious, he wants to look up someone else’s record. ‘America’s motive for going to war is praisworthy, but does her record bear out this belief? Here the allies have an advantage. Measure Uncle Sam’s treatment of Cuba and the Philippines. Use a micrometer, cor- rosive acids, highpower lens—all the mechanical and chem- ical tests in the range of science, and try to find some ingredient of selfishness in his conduct. The record is A—1. After Napoleon’s defeat England might have despoiled France, held Paris for ransom, levied vast fines and devastated towns. Blucher, the Prussian, did, as a matter of history, try to bring about the execution of Napoleon—and a few other re- prisals. Instead, the British assisted the French to restore a staple government to France and peace to all Europe. Then look at the military history of Germany, from Sch- leswig to Picardy. It is one progressive record of plunder, Levying huge fines on cities whose only offense is to have been captured—this is Germany’s hereditary tradition. No other ‘nation in modern times underlies such a reproach. One’s record is as material an asset as our wheatfields and mines. It is up to him to keep its value unimpaired. P At D L CAPITAL’S LEASE OF LIFE. In some New England saloons Liberty bonds of the earlier issues have been sold in $10,000 lots for $7,000. : Seafaring men, carring their bonds in their pockets and wanting the money for a short spree, have sold the certificates at a give-away price. are obviously finding their way into the hands of' capitalists. - Again. There are munition manufacturers who find trouble in keeping their help because their factories have not enough parking space forthe laborers’ automobiles. Which in- dicates that too many workers are handing their wages to auto builders. o The tendency of wealth to get into the hands.of a minority seems inevitable, It would be illuminating to hear the majority classify their reasons for putting it there. i AR e Sy ay UP TO GERMANY T©) LAY DOWN CARDS. When President Wilson expressed himself on the note ask- ing for an armistice for the discussion of peace he informed the ‘When resold in $10,000 lots the bonds| ™ kaiser that the United States would not discuss peace while|} the armies of the Central powers were on allied soil. The state-'S ment of the president was not a reply, rapher in the form of an inquiry as to just how sincere is Germany and her allied co-| battlers. It is now up to Germany to lay her cards on the table. PRSI ; RO u ‘Americans always had the reputation of being drivers, and this may be the reason why they are meeting with so much success in France. ST el R R The Spanish influenza must be pro-German, if one can judge by the way it is holding up the October draft contingent. 0 Germany will continue praying, but she has commenced to pray for peace instead of for, victory. —— e ‘After a long retirement from the general view Monastir is again making its bow to the public. F~ RED CROSS LORRIES HELP PARIS KIDS Parisian chiddren are amusing themselves on an American Red Cross Jorrie, which is about to take them for a day's outing through the sunny flelds of glzt part of France where there is no bloodshed. An American soldier and Jross nurse acting as guardians are oo the back of ihe lorrie. THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER NEWS AND LETTERS FROM BELTRAMI CO. SOLDIERS-SAILORS BEMIDJI SOLDIER ILL. ¥. §.

Nel- gon from that ecapital, have heen In- ereasing continuously, owing i great measuve to. the large influx of '‘Bel- glans at the beginning of the war, and' the later continuous arrivals of Eng- lish and German prisoners of war, and the few new buildings erected during the last years. To meet this deficlency the govern- ment has erected a number of tempo- rary buildings and barracks, butumany of the well-to-do forelgn officers and goldiers seek houses and rooms and, consequently, the rents keep soaring.

Pendergast and daugh- ter,r Miss Tinnie Pendergast, and granddaughter, Miss Irene Middleton, who have spent the summer at the Pendergast summer home on Lake Plantagenet, left today for Stewart, Nev., where they will make their fu- ture home. Miss Alice Pendergast and Mrs. Florence Middleton, who are also daughters of Mrs. L. G. Pendar- gast, are employed in the government school in Stewart, and Miss Tinuie has accepted a position in the same school. Mrs. Pendergast is the widow fo the late Representative L, G. Peu- dergast, who worked so untiringly to seeure the normal school for Bemidji would take place. ‘ Instead of the thousands of sickly, anaemic-looking men, ‘women and girls with pasty or muddy complex- jons; instead of the multitudes of “nerve wrecks,” ‘rundowns,” ‘“brain fags” and pessimists we should see a virile, optimistic throng of rosy- cheeked people everywhere. An inside bath is had by drinking, each morning before breakfast, a glass of real hot water with a tea- spoonful of limestone phosphate in it to wash from the stomach, liver, kid- neys and ten yards of bowels the pre- vious day’s indigestible waste, sour fermentations. and poisons, thus cleansing, sweetening and' freshening the entire alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach. Those subject to sick headache, bil- {iousness, nasty breath, rheumatism, colds; and particularly those .. who have a pallid, sallow complexion and who are constipated very often, are urged to obtain a quarter pound of limestone phosphate at the drug store which will cost but a trifle but is sufficient to’ demonstrate the quick and remarkable change in both health and appearance awaiting those who practice internal sanitation. We must remember that inside cleanliness is more important than outside, be- cause the skin does.not absorb im- purities to contaminate the blood, while the pores in the thirty feet of bowels do.
