The harsh, drastic purgatives, once
deemed so indispensable, have given
place to milder and more skilfully pre-
pared laxatives: hence the great and
growing demand for Ayers Pills. Ply
sicians everywhere recommend them for
costiyeness, indigestion, and liver COM
plants. ......-
AT meeting of the Stearns county
bar association held in Saint Cloud on
Monday evening, D. w, Bruckart was
elected president and NJ. G.. Kelsey vice
president. A resolution was unanimous
~ adopted endorsing Judge Baxter to be
his own successor, his term of Office ex-
piring year hence. Judge Baxter has
won the confidence and esteem of this
district and his reelection, without OPP
position, is a foregone conclusion.
August Lingren, of Little Sank, shot
himself in the left hand Saturday night
while handling small % caliber revolt
ger. AS usual, he didn't know it was
loaded. The bullet entered the palm of
his hand and lodged under the skin on
the back of the hand near the little
finger. He walked 70 town Sunday
morning and had the doctor cut the bull
let out and dress the wound. He is a
man about 35 years OF age, and is old
enough to handle firearms more careful

-Thefollowing item from Eden Valley,
is clipped from. the Paynesville Press.
Can it be that it refers to our own and
only Max Nicolaus?
A man calling himself Nicholaus came
here last Monday, representing that he
was an editor of fifteen years experience,
and had run a paper successfully in many
places. He wanted the business men to
4 call meeting and see how much could
be raised to start paper. About $50
was raised, and about SITS more as
sured. That evening he showed he could
beat anyone in the Valley playing cards.
Next day they all withdrew their sub
scriptions, and told him he would have
to run it himself. So he has gone to get
a press-maybe. -
4 The people along the line are getting
impatient at the delay in TRANSFERRING

car. The public needs this improvement
: in the mail service, and it should b
. transferred as soon as possible Argus
