Important medical and economical discoveries that will be of great value to the modern life of the peoples of the world are on the verge of being made at the present time in several districts of Central America by Ameri- can archeologists, | This prophecy was made by Prof. ‘William Gates, president of the Maya ' society, in an address delivered at the m, meeting, at Johns Hopkins univedsity, of the Archeological Institute of America, the Philological association | : 0! and the Maya soclety. i Prof. Gates brought forth in his talk thé fact that in Central America there has recently been discovered the ces of an ancient race of peo-! ple, with a civilization as old and as cultured as that of the anclent Egyp- tians, ! The plans of an eminent group of American archeologists for further ex- ploration of the remains of this ancient race were dwelt on by the | speaker. These workers, he declared, | hold forth the promise to the Ameri- can people of a new region, rich with archeological material, the surface of | which has yet only been scratched. Among the most important discover- | ceted to be made there are the ! some of which are already in the hands of the Maya soclety, that will add valuable specific pharma- | copoeia and medical knowledge to that | society in this country. | Davy Jones.

All species of nettles are unpleas- ant enough to handle roughly, but some of the foreign ones are most formidable plants. Several of the East Indian forms are truly danger- ous, for, after the first itching sensa- tion has passed away, it is often fol- lowed by a feeling as of hot irous be- ing rubbed on the flesh, and the pain increases to such an extent that after hours—and sometimes days—the pa- tlent is seized with symptoms like those following influenza apd lock- Jaw, while sometimes death results.

One of the most famous examples of official oversight occurred in con- nection with Drury Lane treater, where for nearly two centuries sol- diers stood on guard outside during each performance. Many thought the guard was there in recognition of Drury Lane as the theater royai, but the real fact was that it was sent there originally by George IL to pre-| ' vent a threatened riot. The order not being countermanded, the guard was continued until 1894.—London Times. Bicycle on Railroad Track.

Welsh songs are all interesting in their several ways, and there are also songs of Roumania, of many Scandinavian natlons, of Greece and of the Nether- lands, which have not been mentioned.

It is said that in the center of the Limerick exchange is a pillar with a circular plate of copper about three feet in diameter, called the nail. On this the earnest money of all'stoek exchange bargains must be paild. A similar custom prevailed at Bristol, where four pillars called nails stood in front of the exchange and were used for the same purpose.—London The Scotch, drish and —y Every question the doctor asks| ‘ of your own—has its bearing on the prescription he writes.

THE DRUGGIST Phone 34 = 217 3rd St. Backed by Truth You have heard people read an advertisement and' then say, “I don’t believe it.’ Once upon a time they might have been right, for dishonest people have advertised. But there are two good reasons why practically all advertising today is - honest. One reason is that no good newspaper will print dishonest advertising. ) “ The other reason is that ex- perience has proven that dishon- est advertising hurts the adver- tiser far more than it does the buyer of the goods advertised. ' - This fact is easy to understand. A person may be dishonest in a quiet, sneaky way, for a long » time and never "actually be caught at it. But an advertise- ment is a combination agréement and guarantee. < | Tribune. you—every physical peculiarity Y WOMAN’S STUDY CLUB TO MEET MONDAY AFTERNOON The regular meeting of the Wo- man’s Study club will be held at the home of Mrs. C.

NORTHERN NATIONAL BANK Bemidji, Minnesota 7 A merchant or manufacturer inserts an advertisement in a fi-—_ per. That advertisement carries certain statements and certain claims for-the goods mentioned. To speak such statements and claims is one thing; but to prjnt them, and sign your name to them, and to send this out for ev- ‘eryone to read, is giving the pub- lic a guarantee.
