Glenwood, Mimi, March 19.-Frank M.
Eddy, the missing Minnesota congress-
man, is in Europe, as the Washington
dispatches of The Journal have
stated. He is not making sightseeing
tour or one for pleasure. 1t is a business
proposition purely and case of ve-to
Mr.. Eddy had agreed to bring from Nor
way and Sweden certain large contingents
of settlers for Canadian land company.
Accordingly, he secured the assistance OF
two agents. E. kofod, postmaster OF
Glenwood, and Axel Englund, machin-
cry dealer of, Starbuck. They went to
Norway about two months ago and began
to work up immigration when certain un-
expected entanglements ensued. Kofod
and Englund were a good way from home
and in trouble. What more natural than
they should want their chief? They
cabled the situa ton to Mr.. Eddy, and as
soon as he could get leave of absence
he started for the old country to succor
them. Just what the complications are
is not known here.
A letter which the congressman wrote
in London to friend has arrived, and
while details are not given, the essentials
of the story were made plain. The con-
gresham didn't want, to go, but consid-
cred it his duty to do SO.
Mr.. Kofod was private secretary for
Congressman Eddy during his first two
terms in congress and the two have long
held confidential relations and been on
the most intimate terms. =

King leopold Of Relgiuzn ap-
pointed Johann HoY as an Hon
orary Member Of the Sanitary
College at Brussels, In consider
alton of the highly nutritious and
beneficial action of the Genuine.
Johann H0YS Exfracs.
It is the nutrient qualities of food,
extracted through the digestive process,
that build strength and sustain life, by
charging the blood with red corpuscles.
Blood is life.
The thin, hollow-chested person who
loses the nutrient qualities Of food is in
danger of pulmonary disease
tion,. most likely.
The neryously inclined, the sort who
worry and fuss over things big or little,
are face to face with prostration.
The care-worn woman with over
taxed organs peculiar to her sex may,
with reason, grow more anxious, for
female weaknesses are vital weaknesses
in very truth not an ounce of nutrient
can be spared,
And these dangers are wholly due to
the loss of life-giving elements through
improper food assimilation.
The proper treatment for impaired
digestion and every disease akin to it,
is a wineglassful with each meal Of
Johann Hoff's Extract, which has for
fifty years stood at the head as strength
and health builder.
1t does more than act as a tonic to the
stomach more than tocompel perfect
food assimilation, and Johann Hof,s
even goes farther than q mere nerve or
dyspepsia medicine; it is in itself
nutrient.
