The biggest decreases were in two of the staples most nmonly favored by poor people—bread and beans. Bread is 7 per cent, cheaper than it was a year ago, and navy beans 31 per cent. Let’s read the bad news first and Ret it over with: All meats except ham and bacon were slightly higher in price in March than in February. (Chicago packers pleace write.) Other articles which were higher were onions 40 per cent, cabbage 2 3per cent, butter 16 per cent, oranges 14 per cent, coffee and tea 3 per cent.

King and Miss Minnie J. Nielson: The state superintendent's letter would indicate that so long ago as 1914 Neil Macdonald was doing all that he could to injure and discredit Miss Nielson. Macdonald's counsel objected to the introduction ot Tay- lor’s letter as an exhibit for the state. but the court wihheld its ruling, and the exhibit went in.* Ua ‘Macdonald could not. recall having written the letter in re Mr. King and Miss Macdonald until he was con- fronted with Taylor’s reply, when the former state superintendent’s mem- ory was considérably refreshed. Tay lor’s letter was written Fe2ruary 11, v914. Records Tampered With. The fact that the records of the state superintendent’s office had been tampered with to exalt Neil M. Cac- donald and to bring out the fact that Miss Nielson does not hold diplomas from the same freshwater colleges which have conferred degrees upon Macdonald was established by Cox through the introduction of a large ledger in which .records of teachers’ certificates have been state superintendent’s office. There had been written in over the record of Macdonald's certificate addenda rel- ative to an alleged endorsement of his original certificate. by the Univedsity of North Dakota. In connection with j Miss Nielson’s record of a first grade life professional certificate a line had been drawn through the blank space left for the name of the college upon whose diplomas such certificate was based. No similar emphasis had been placed on the lack of a college diplo- ma in connection with any other en- try, and it was evident from the fresh- ness of the ink that this alteration, it was alleged, as well as the addenda in the Macdonald case, had been made during the last two years.

History of Case. Neil C. Macdonald, former. inspecto‘ of rural and graded schools, wag elect ed state superintendent of public in- struction. with the’ endorsement'of the Nonpartisan league in November, 1916 Last June Miss Minnie J.;Nielgon oi Valley City,-for many years superin tendent of schools of Barnes ‘¢eounty; for 25 years actively identiefid with educational affairs in North Dakota, and who served as president ‘of the) North Dakota Federation of Meman's an a the North Dakota women’s committee SELF POSING VERY PREVALENT Auto-Intoxication, or Slow Self -Poison-, ing, Cause of ‘Most Ill Health and Disease. Advanced medical authorities assert that auto-intoxication is the founda- tion of most of the ills and diseases to which the human flesh is heir. This condition is nothing more nor less than the slow self-poisoning of! the vital organs produced by the ex- | cessive mental and physical strain} which renders the organs lame and in- active, and permits toxins—actual poisons—to be generated within one’s own body. Usually the trouble starts in’ the in-| testines; sometimes’ it starts in the stomach, liver or kidneys, but/in any case the overeating, excessive mervous strain, lack of exercise, or: other causés. At any rate it is the more important organs that suffer the final damage ond when they falter or fail) in their duties the body fills up with acids and pois and the | victim} often yields to their baneful influ-| ences.’ Bright’s disease, heart trouble, high blood pressure, catarrhal affec- tions, and other troubles are frequent-, ly the result of self poisonitig or auto-} intoxication. A tired draggy feeling of the body,| a sluggish mind, and dull memory, in-} tense nervousness, headache, stomach jand bowel troubles, poor. circulation, imperfect digestion. constipation and despondency are common symptoms} ‘of auto-intoxication; and nine out of every ten of the American people are likely to be so affected. Tanlac, the powerful reconstructive and systematic tonic was © designed especially to overcome these very |troubles. There is not a single por- jtion of the body that is ‘not benefited by the helpful work of this celebrated preparaton, which begins. its action by stimulating the digestive and assimi- lative organs, thereby enriching the blood and invigorating the entire sys- tem. Composed of the most beneficial roots and herbs known to science, it enables the stomach to thoroughly di- gest the food, thereby permitting the jassimilable products to be converted | into blood, bone and muscle, It over- comes that great exciting cause of disease, weakness. It renders the body vigorous and elastic, it keeps the | mind clear and energetic, and throws off the symptoms of nervousness and indigestion. .It builds up the ‘consti- tution weakened by diseased or me tal and pbysical overwork, quicke: | convalescence of the invalid, and is a |sure and unfailing source of comfort |to those who are suffering from the ‘effects of nervousness and overwork. {. That Tanlac does these very things is proven hy the fact that it now has the lary le of any tonic on the America ket. Mill’ons have used it with the most astonishing and grati fying results.

They continued so to sit, contending; for the office to which the people had elected her until the yaople’s verdict was backed by an opinion from the supreme court, four of whose mem- ‘bers were of the same political adher- ence as the Macdonalds.
