Again and again we have read of strangers in distant towns who have been cured by this or that medicine. But Bemidji’s pertinent question has always been ‘“Has anyone here in Bemidji been cured?” The word of a stranger living a hundred miles away may be true, but it cannot have the same weight with us as the word of our own citizens, whom we know and respect, and whose evidence we can so easily prove. 0.

Erickson, prop. of grocery, 1223 Minnesota Ave., Bemidji, says: ‘“‘Several years ago, when working on the street railway, I had a bad at- tack -of kidney complaint caused by 8o much jolting and shaking.
