Col. Whittlesey has landed in New York. He was the Yank commander of the «lost battalion” whose whereabouts in the Argonne Forrest was unknown for several days. He and this men were sur- rounded by a host of blood hungary Huns, and when the com- mander of the German horde asked Whittlesey if he wanted to surrender, the American replied “Go to hell,” and they held out until rescued by allied troops which discovered them, and who defeated the enemy. 0 We were taken to task the other day for remarking that in response to the president’s urgent appeal to elect only demo- crats to congress, the Sixth Minnesota congressional district returned a republican. Our verbal chastizer seemed to have the impression we were trying to be “smart.”” Well, what would call it? We thought the whole thing was 'a joke. 'And from reports throughout the country we have a sneaking idea there were others. -0 We are in favor of sending food to the starving German’s under the proposed plan. The only humane: thing:to do,. We believe in humanity to the hungary women and children.: But for the rest of the desciples of the beast.of Berlin we’d let em make the best of it. We wouldn’t ‘dig into our jeans for Liberty Bonds to feed that outfit. . B — The carrying of the proposed amendment to the constuti- tion of the state by the voters of Beltrami county-again:in- dicated they have no use for saloons:or illegal liquor seling. Why not make a determined effort to get rid of the illicit booze sellers in the county, and the will of the people enforced; as well as the government edict? 0. Norway lost 831 ships during the war, due-in the main to torpedoing by ruthless German submarines: who violated laws by sinking vessels uf a ncutral country. On three of the ships 1,128 lives were lost. Yet, Norway was obliged to tolerate the atrocities owing to her proximity to Germany and her blood thirsty autocracy. i 0 From the looks of the returns from the election it wasn’t a bad day for the ‘“Mc’s” nor the:Johnsons.. McKee was elected coroneér, McGhee was made county superintendent of schools, . Andy Johnson was re-elected sheriff, and it appears that A. D. Johnson would be the new auditor:: 0. .

Faribault is another community of pine boxes. Yes, it is a wet one, too. 0 That “wet” legislature that framed the law, which states that a majority of ALL votes cast must favor the amendment to carry it, certainly knew what it was doing.when it enacted that law. It certainly serves well the purpose of the liquor interests. —_— Von Hindenburg, in an address to.the. military of Ger- many, consoles it with the statement that he will.stand by it.

In one of the big plants in Ohio all sorts of houses have been bulli—from brick, stone, wood, con- crete and even jron—and allsare not only commodious, but comfortable and durable. Modern engineering has en- abled builders to construct houses more repldly and better than they could a decade ago.” v HEALTH TALK SPANISH INFLUENZA OR GRIP By Dr. Lee H. Smith. An old enemy is with us again, and whether we fight a German or a germ, we must put up a good fight, and not be afraid. The influenza runs a very brief course when the patient is careful, and if we keep the stem in good condition and throw off the poisons which tend to ac- camulate within our bodies, we can escape the disease. - Remember these three C’s—a clean mouth, a clean skin, and clean bowels. To carry off poisons from the system and keep the howels loose, daily doses of a pleasant laxative should be taken. Such a one is made of May-apple, leaves of aloe, root of jalap, and called Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets. Hot lemonade should be used freely if attacked by a cold, and the pa- tient should be put to bhed after a hot mustard foot-bath. To prevent the attack of bron- chitis or pneumonia and to control the pain, Anuric tablets should be obtained at the drug store, and one given every two hours, with lemon- ade. The Anuric tablets Were first discovered by Dr. Pierce, and, as they flush the bladder and cleanse the kidneys, they carry away much of the poisons and the uric acid. It is important that broths, milk, | buttermilk, ice cream and simple diet be given regularly to strengthen the system and increase the vital resistance. The fever is diminished by the use of the Anuric tablets, but in addition, the forehead, arms and hands may be bathed with water (tepid) in which a tablespoonful of salaratus has been dissolved in a quart. After an attack of grip or pneumoniz to build up and strength- en the system, obtain at the drug store a good iron tonie, called “Irontic” Tablets, or that well known herbal tomic, Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. 8ilent, Daring and Terrible. When there is no trouble brewing. in labor circles, or among disturbers sus- pected of being alien enemy sympathiz- ers, the klan goes after idlers and slackers. | Its methods are proving ef- fective and so far no detective has been able: to get on the inside of the organization, which appears to have public sentiment behind -it. Wherever the klan Is organized it is made up of some of the best men of the community. Neither strangers nor half-strangers are taken in, and the rule of “once a member, always a mem- ber”-still ‘holds good. Otherwise, the unfaithful one may be treated to the fate that awalts other victims of the klan. 7 Not many-days ago the unseen hand of the klan stretched forth in Mobiie, Ala., where many ships are being built for the government. A strike agitator appeared in the community and songht to foment trouble. The stevedares, shipworkers and washerwomen of the ity were called out on strike, in spite of ' the fact that they were making a good wage and did not want to strike. Then a rumor spread that the man planning -the strike was in personal danger. He was apprehended by the police and was being taken to head- quarters when the patrol was stdpped by a squad of motorcars, each covered with white cloth bearing the insignin. “Invisible Empire,” the fiery cross of Scotland. The agitator was taken. What became of him is unknown. But there was no strike. 4 In Birmingham, Ala., an agitator gought' to start trouble in the bhig mills. Again the arm of the Invisible Empire": reached from the darkness, the plans of the strike leader were bared, the man was seized and has not been heard from since. Eis plans for a strike also falled, PRORETPEY S Goes.Calfing; Meets Burglar. Cleveland.—Dudiey Fleld went over to see his uncle, €. W. Field, on a re- cent evening.
