O PATRIOTIC AMERICANS. - (By Napoleon Hill) Not all who wear little American flags in the lapel of their coats and take off their hats as the flag goes by, are loyal Americans. . Patriotism is something which must first be demonstrated in the human heart. It is not so much what a man does as what he actually thinks that marks him as a real or psuedo patriot. When a man gets right in his own heart; when he feels a burning desire of appreciation of this wonderful land. of free- dom; when he convinces himself that this is the best country on earth, then he is ready for outward demonstration of patriot- ism and not before. if you do not feel right in your heart toward America there is something wrong with either you or the country. If the country is wrong you are living in the wrong spot, so why not move to some better place? If you are wrong the only sportsman-like thing to do is to undergo a change of heart! If you remain here and accept the wide freedom of speech and of action which America offers, then for heaven’s sake act as any self-respecting guest would act and feel a sense of appreciaiton. If you cannot feel this sense of appreciation, then do exactly that which an honorable guest ought to do; namely, pack your grip and move on. No one can play a traitorous part and retain his self- respect at the same time. You have a right to be here; you have a {'ight to every privilege which America offers; you have a right to enjoy the wonderful opportunities to accumu- late personal fortune which every American enjoys, providing, always, that you conduct yourself as a patriotic American should. Do not bite the hand that feeds you! If this country is giving you a good living and its laws are providing you with absolute freedom to go and come as you li}(e, then the least you can possibly do in return is to feel kindly toward the country and respect its customs and its laws. This is all that is expected of those who enjoy the privileges which America offers.— (Copyright, Hill’'s Golden Rule Maga- zine.) + NEWSOF THE THEATERS THRILLS IN WESTERNERS. Actual Occurances. Much of the.material in Stewart Edward White's famous novel, “The Westerners,”” which appears in a big special screen production at the Grand theatre tonight and tomorrow, is taken from life, as is the~case with al lof Major White’s novels. He tells an interesting little anecdote about one of the characters he knew when, as a young man, he himself took part in the Black Hills gold rush, with which “The Westerners' deals. This man served as a prototype of one of the important characters in the film and novel. “We were riding by a claim one tacked his horse,” Major White re- tacked his Jhorse,” Mapor White re- lates. “The horse was badly fright- ened, while the dog took fright and ran into the open door of the cabin. As soon as the rearing horse permit- ted, my friend left him and followed the dog. He came to the open cabin door, leaned.inside, and shot with his revolver once. Then he came out, put back his revolver, and we rode on. . !“After a while I thought it time to inquire whether or not he got the dog. “‘I doén’t just know,” he drawled. | “The folks inside were at breakfast and he ran in among their laigs. But 1 think I got him!" WAR EXPFRIENCE HELPFUL. Major Robert Warwick, who is the star in the latest Paramount-Artcraft picture, “In Mizzoura.” to be shown at the Elko again tonight, believes that his experience in Friance with the A. E. F. has helped him consider- ably as an actor. “Though I never thought of my screen career from the moment I en- listed until I was again on American soil,” said MajJor Warwick recently, “while oversegs I saw life from every possible angle. I learned how men act and feel under all sorts of exper- iences. I met more differemt kinds of men in a week there than I could in a lifetime of peace. The greatef the actor, the more true to life his inter- pretations. By showing me life, the war has helped me considerably in my chosen profession.” Major Warwick plays the role of redblooded Jim Radburn in “In Miz- zoura,” which is a screen version of Augustus Thomas's famous play.

He takes her home, much to the fury of Judith Winthrope, who eyes him with matrimonial intent.

The love which he has been stifling for months flares forth and the Microbe at last realizes complete happiness. . ¢ William Fox will also present one of those popular features, Mutt and Jeff, from the pen of Bud Fisher, un- der the caption of ““Seeing Things.” There will also be an added fea- ture, an L-KO comedy, making an evening of varied entertainment. COMING—MITCHELL LEWIS. “Fools’ Gold” is the vehicle that brings Mitchell Lewis, Florence Tur- ner and an excellent cast of players to the Rex tomorrow and Wednesday. THis is a six reel super-production that abounds with cleverness and is unusually beautiful in its scenes and settings. The story was laid in the great Northwest, many of the scenes being filmed in the Cascade Mountains, near Spokane. Washington. The scenery at this place is said to excell anything that California can boast of. The light is particularly well adapted for picture taking and Mit- chell Lewis will make several more photoplays in and about this same location. Startled Even New York.. Mrs, Carl Lamb, of Philadelphia, wife of Lieutenant Carl Lamb, U. S. N., recently startled New York by walking down Fifth avenue with a rag doll about twelve inches tall tied to her arm by a silken cord of about the same length—not a pretty doll at all, “just cute,” Mrs. Lamb said herself. “Of course, he’'s got a name,” she said. “He’s Patsy Dooley. His brother, Thomas Squeelix, is in Philadelphia with my sister. I have no intention of starting a Fifth avenue fad. I made Patsy to take to China and keep me company when I go there within a few months.” ROUGH ROAD TO LEARNING. Johnson—1I say, Jeems, dat chile o yourns mighty slow larnin’ at school.

Again a mother has given her life for her young. This time the setting is the San Francisco waterfront, down where whistles scream, hoists squeal and rattle, engines chug and there is a me- chanical ensemble of industrial noise the long day through. The principals are dogs—a wiry-haired Airedale mother and her four puppies. A scow was home to the canine fam- 1ly. One day a swell overturned the | basket in which the pups lay, and ov- erboard’ they went. There was no buman aid near But the mother leaped to the rescue of her drowning offspring. One by one she brought the little pups to safety. But before she could reach the last one it drowned. Men found her on deck, still holding the body of the dead puppy, and with the three others scrambling and whin- Ing around her. Thé mother was too exhausted to move, They sent for a physician. but when he arrived the rescued pups were orphans. To the burden of her own six pups, an Irish setter who lives aboard: the same scow, has added the care of three foster childern, the orphans of the Airedale mother. Preserving American Scenery.

The association is co-operating with the national park service for the creation and develop- ment of national parks and “monu- ments.”” A’ fine collection of litera- ture on mountaineering has been form- ed by the association at the New York public library and bibliographies are being compiled and published. When this orghrization was founded in 1916, it embraced nine <lubs and societies. Now there were 29 and the aggregate membership is over 45,000. London Cats Victims of Plague. The outbrefik of n disease, which has many symptoms to influenza, is causing the death of cats by the hun- dred in London. The disease is not thought to be communicable to human beings. bnt distinguished surgeons are unahle to confirm the exact nature. It spreads with amazing rapid and the symp- toms are said to resemble closely that of poisoning. except that death usu- ally takes place within two davs, SAT PROPPED UP IN BED ALL NIGHT St. Paul Woman Could Hardly Breathe—Tanlac Relieves Indiges- tion—Sleeps Like a Child, Now. “Since I began taking Tanlac I have gained twelve pounds in weight and am enjoying better health than I have in fifteen years,” said Mrs. A. C. Dunp, who resides at 78 Tilton street, St. Paul, Minn., recently. Con- tinuing, she said: “For fifteen years I have been suf- fering with one of the worst stomach troubles I think anybody ever had. It would trouble me by spells which would last for two or three months at a time. After every meal I was; troubled with formation of gas and the way I would bloat was something terrible, and the gas would press against my heart so it was all I could do to breathe, and night after night I had to sit propped up in bed to sleep, because if I lay down it was impossible for me to breathe at all. I also would have such paing in my stomach and such bad attacks of heartburn I would become almost frantic. I suffered terribly from se- vere headaches which would almost drive me distracted and were so bad they would keep me in bed for two or three days at a time. To add to my other troubles about six months ago I began to suffer severely from rheumatism in my feet and ankles and last summer it became so bad I could hardly get around and my ankles became so badly swollen I couldn’t put on my shoes. I naturally became extremely weak and badly run-down and it was simply impoési-| ble for me to do all my own house- work. “T had tried so many different med- icines without being benefited I had become very much discouraged, and when my husband suggested I try Tanlac I would not listen to him. Well, one day a few weeks ago while I was down town one of those sudden attack of stomach trouble came on me, and I could hardly get my breath for gas pressing against my heart, and I made for the nearest drug store to try to get something to relieve me, and while resting until I was able to get home I saw a display of Tanlac, and bought a bottle. I have bought two since then, and it is simply remarkable what it has done for me. I can aet anything I want and everything agrees with me|, perfectly. I am never troubled with gas or bloating, those severe pains are gone entirely and I never have any trouble in breathing, and can lie down and sleep as peaceful as a child. I haven’t had the headache since I began taking Tanlac, and the rheumatism has entirely me. I have also regained my lost strength and am able to do all my town house- work with the greatest ease. Tanlac has done so much for me I am only too glad to recommend it to others.” Tanlac is sold in Bemidji by the City Drug Store, in Kelliher by Mrs. R. Sterling, in Blackduck by Franch & Moon, in Baudette by J. Willlams and in Thorhult by P. M. Swanson. \ ¢ 4+ AddYeRs:. Lt S e e s s Mail to Bemidji Association, Bemidji, Minn.
