Decides on Stowaway Role. When they were ready to return to the states they were startled by the tnformation that the United States government had. commandeered all of the Jlarger steamships for the return of troops and the simaller had reached the limit of their accommodations, res- ervations belng made months ahead. "’Oabled appeals for rellef were fol- lowed by diligent effort upon the part ot Congressman Ireland of the Peoria district. He was advised that 670 Americans were at Honolulu, includ- fig Mrs. Well and daughter, all anx- fous to return home. A message from Governor McCarthy of Hawall was the only response, stating that pass- - age could not be proeured much before October. . Miss Josephine was much disturbed by this situation. She is a student at an eastern college and anxious to com- mence her school duties. Decides on Stowaway Role. Becoming convinced that it was im- possible to obtain a passage before ET & ENTHUSIASM IS RUNNING HIGH There is but one topic of conversation. At the breakfast table, in the library room, on the street, at the club, in fact where ever people come together you hear confident little groups discussing the Bemidji Daily Pioneer’s Great $3,500.00 Profit-Sharing Circulation Building Campaign. Talk about profit-sharing! Say, -just look at those three big prizes at the top of the long list which are to be given absolutely free to the winners in the campaign. To us it appears the most attrac- tive proposition ever offered by a newspaper. We are going to watch it with keen interest. We realize that in any number of homes every member of the family will be working for one of these prizes. And that is the real way to win. Mother and-Dad, Jack and Mary, Aunt Etta and Uncle Fred—all will be busy. The home » work will be done in a “jiffy’’ and out they will go to gather votes and take new subscriptions. j TIME IS VALUABLE AND WE WILL SAVE YOU THE LOSS OF SEVERAL HOURS : We can save Mother and Aunt Etta no end of time on Monday. There is no need of taking all morning to do the family washing. Our wonderful D e e i SRR 0000000000000 ELECTRIC WASHER e IR S Will help them to get the clothes on the line by nine o’clock. Then, too, the wash- ing will not have tired them. They will feel fresh and invigorated for the day’s campaign. Say what you will, there is no way to do a family washing quite like the “Electric Way.” ‘ Last week we sold a washing machine each day. One lady was so enthusi- astic about hes new machine that she signified her willingness to let them take anything out of her house they desired with the exception of her washing machine. ‘Another remarked that if she were compelled to part with either her washing ma- chine or her bed she would say: “Goodbye little bed.” These are the best recom- mendations we could desire for our machine. We are selling the “THOR” and the “GAINADAY” Electric Washers on easy monthly payments. These machines are being demonstrated at our office every day. Don’t hesitate to come in and ask for a demonstration. We really like to make them. And if you want to take one of our machines into your home for a trial you are privileged to do so. In case the machine fails to please you we will be glad to take it back without questions of any kind being asked. MINNESOTA ELECTRIC LIGHT & POWER COMPANY “The Home of Mrs. Thor” Mid In a Nook Until the Vessel Was Out of Sight of Land. - fall, Miss Well, with the approval of mother, decided upon the role of away. She was well supplied with :money and, selzing an opportu- nity to enter the hold a few hours be- fore the steamer Venezuela cast off, she-hid in a nook until the vessel was out of sight of land and there was no chance to set her on shore again. She then made her appearance, much be- grimed, and proffered the captain the money usually required for the pass- age across. There was nothing to do but ac- cept the money and the situation with the best grace possible. Miss Well was given quarters with the wife of the purser and the journey was an dgreeable one. The other passengers Nonized her for her nerve and origi- nality and believe that she has the distinction of being the first soclety girl stowaway in the history of ocean- going vessels. > Miss Weil will be the heroine at a round of social events here before she leaves for the eastern school.- Her mother was ‘apprised of the safe ar- rival home of her daughter and the former has cabled that she expects to safl from Honolulu some time in September.
