From the Ashes
Baltimore Family's Experience Points
Moral to Residents of MINNEAPOLIS

The visitor to Baltimore today scarce
ly realizes that less than a year ago
the city was almost destroyed by a
memorable fire. A similar comparison
might be made by George w. Nally,
one Of the leading citizens of Balti--
more, as to the change in his own looks.
A short time ago Mr.. Nally, writing
from his home address, 2213 Barclay
street, says: ~ have been troubled
for years with catarrh and had resort
ed to all remedies that could be
thought of. My wife was also afflicted
with this terrible disease, but all the
treatments we used were an absolute
failure until we tried Hyomei. 1t
worked like charm and has made a
complete cure in both of our cases.
Voegeli Bros, corner Hennepin and
Washington avenues, and corner Sew
enth street and Nicollet avenue, the
local agents for Hyomei, have so much
faith in the treatment that they
give, their personal guarantee to re-
fund the money in case it does not
benefit. A complete outfit costs one
dollar, the extra bottles are but fifty
cents. Ask to see the strong guaran-
tee under which Hyomei is sold.

Sault Ste Marie, Mich, Oct. 24.-The old
idea of making new state of the upper PENN
sula has been revived by the citizens of this
part of Michigan. But the old plan of lacking
on part Of Wisconsin has been dropped. the
general opinion being that the upper peninsula
is large and rich enough to become separate
state without acquiring any territory.
Advocates of the plan favor calling the state
Superior, which would be the most representa-
tive that could be chosen. The upper
peninsula is growing rapidly, both in population
and wealth. Its mining interests are assuming
mammoth proportions, while it will be but a
short time before some Of its cities will be
large manufacturing centers. ~. ~
One Of the chief reasons for wanting change
Is that the peninsulas really have very little in
common. In politics, the northern part Of
be, leading politicians feeling that they have
been given nothing but the crumbs. Their
strongest men have been turned down in favor
of less worthy aspirants for public favor, simply
because, it is alleged, the upper peninsula has
always been sure to give big republican ma
jority. -.-. .-...
A mapority of the people of the upper PENN
sula know nothing of the southern part Of the
state. Many of them have come from the
west; others from Canada and the south. There
fore, they do not take the interest in state af-
fairs that they would were the upper peninsula
to become state by itself.
Marquette, the 500 and Menominee will prob
ably enter the race for the state capital. Mar
uuette has the best natural location, as it is
nearest to the center Of the peninsula, but the
other towns have many advantages that would
make them strong bidders for the prize.
