Kept Gowns of a Lifetime. Looking round the prodigious d play of the late Princess Loba (] clothing at the Hotel Drouot made you wonder if she ever gave or threw any thing away in her lifetime. Three hundred or more tea gowns and eve- ning frocks, disposed of in the recent sale of her effects, were.of every date since her wedding trosseau. Her body linen also was of every style from the primitive simplicity of early Victorian Ideals to the Iluxurious garments adopted by the Parisian coquette to- day. But the embroidered and laced house Iinen, the fine sheets in bundles of 86, found more eager buyers than the clothing. Her furs were of great beau- ty and varlety. There were coats and cloaks of sealskin, of dark astrakhan, all in bewlidering quantities.—From the Continental Edition of the Lon- don Mall. £ Sweet e gl a Limited Amount of to Be Delivered Direct to Factory Koors Bros. Co THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER Nature’s Purpose In Flowers, However fine and dainty a flower |’ may be it is pressed to do a' great service and its colors and forms are all suited to its work. It must bring forth the fruit, or the continulty of plant life will be broken and the earth will be turned Into a desert ere long. The color and smell of the flower are all for some purpose; therefore, no seoner is it fertilized by the bee, no sooner {oes the time of its fruition arrive, than it sheds its exquisite pet- als and a cruel economy compels it to give up its sweetest perfume. It has no time to flaune its finery, for it is busy beyond measure, No Place to Hide. My most embarrassing moment oc- curred one day when I was at a dance. There was one fellow there whom 1 particularly disliked, and who was coning toward me to ask for a dance. I tried to hide behind a woman. She turned around and I sald: “Please let me hide behind you; I don’'t want to dance with that nut that’s coming toward me,” and the woman, in a cold tone of voice said: ‘“Why, that's my son.” It dikin’t take long for me to clear out.- Exchanee Subscribe for the Pioneer. Jump from Bed - in Morning and Drink Hot Water Tells why everyone should drink hot water each morning before breakfast. !—,—.!"— To see the healthy bloom in your face, to see your skin get clearer and clearer, to wake up without a head- ache, backache, coated tongue or a nasty breath, in fact to feel your best, day in and day out, just try inside bathing every morning for a week. Before breakfast each day, drink a glass of real hot water with a tea- spoonful of limestone prosphate in it as a harmless means of washing from the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the previous day’s indigestible waste, sour bile and toxins, thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach. .. The action of hot water and limestone phosphate on an empty stomach is wonderfully invigorating. It cleans out all the sour fermentations, gases and acidity and gives one a fine appetite for breakfast. ' A quarter pound of limestone phos- phate will cost very little at the drug store, but is sufficient to demonstrate that those who are subject to consti- pation, bilious attacks,.acid stomach, rheumatic twinges or whose skin is sallow or pallid, that one week of inside bathing will have them look- ing and feeling better every way.

CORRI IS GLOOMY : OVER W. K. BOXERS By Charlés McCann ' (United Press Correspondent) -« London, June 9. (By Mail)—If Jack Dempsey ever worries as to the| possible identity of his next opponent after Carpentier, he may eliminate England and, for the present, Aus- tralia from his thoughts. That, anyway, is the opinion of Eugene Corri, the grand-old-man of the manly art in Great Britain, who believes that any Britisher—or for that matter almost anybody else— who faces Dempsey in the ring is go- FRIDAY EVENING, JUNE 25, 1920 Mfl.-«——_—i -.--— ing to get it—as Corri put it—*right on the nose.” There is but one man in &reat Britain at present who shows real class, Sorri thinks. That is “Boy” McCormick. And Corri likes him too much, he says, to want to see him battle Dempsey. Corri is quite pessimistic regarding the boxing outlook here, at least as regards the big men. It is quite well known that he doesn’t facny Beckett. Beckett, anyway, has not caught the public eye as a champion should, and it seems to Corri and a lot more just a question of time—perhaps not a very long time—when he gets it.
