The Guest at Our Table.

From Ladies Home Journal.
Emerson used to entertain guests
of every rank and nation who came
to pay him homage. They sat down
to the homely fare whatever it was,
provided for the family Often it wee
only a dish of potatoes and a jug of
milk. They do not come to examine
our food" he would say. but our
life"
If American women of moderate
means would adopt this idea how fine
our hospitality would be. In the ma
jority of small households a guest is
rare and important event He is
not welcomed to the everyday fare
of the family, nor taken into it's life
but is treated to strange dishes and
company manners.
A venerable Bishop. whose flock is
scattered over great territory, said.
lately: Il have been travelling and
hungry for three months. My people
insist on feeding me on strange
dishes and pastry that l know they
uo ioI iCSuic1iis Col, cIiu Oil IiiO I'LL Z
1 have been longing for beefsteak
and a baked potato. They mean well.
but why will they not be their natural
selves?"
When will we all learn to be our
natural selves? To be anything else,
to do aught but the thing that is nat
ural to us, is ever apparent. We de-
ceive no one; least of all the guest
at our table.
When we ask some one to our ia
BILE to share our meal we show that
person the highest compliment We
can pay. Hospitality can go no fur
ther than a sharing of the most init
mate domestic part of our home into
which another can enter. A guest ap-
preciates this and feels it. Does it
not necessarily follow, then, that we
should keep that time honestly re-
fectfve of ourselves and of our real
| living?
But the moment we introduce com
pany manners, company dishes, we
change from the real to the unreal; !;
it ceases to be the very thing which
we have asked the friend TO snare
He is no longer dining with us; but
we with him, though in our own
house. Can anything be more incon-
sistent, more destructive of the very
courtesy we would show him? We
rob the greatest compliment we can
show a friend of its very essence
Many a man has gone to a home filled
with the joy of being asked to dine
with the family, only to have the
whole glow of his pleasure taken
away by sitting down to meal
which-as is always and at once ap
parents out of the ordinary, and
has been created for him. To take
s.pot-luck; that is to enjoy true hos
pitality: aught else is but sham
and what is intended as a courtesy
becomes discourtesy because it is
L not honest.

DON'T Be BALD.
Nearly Anyone May Secure Splendid
Growth of Hair.

VIOWW VI G1oils
You can easily find out for your
self if your hair needs nourishment,
if it is thinning out, getting dry,
harsh and brittle, or splitting at the
end. You simply have to pull a
hair from the top of your head and
closely examine it's root. If the
bulb is plump and rosy, it is all
right-if it is white and shrunken,
your hair is diseased and needs
nourishment.
We have remedy for hair troubles
that cannot be surpassed. 1t has a
record of growing hair and curing
badness in SO out of every 100
cases where used according to direc-
tions for reasonable length of time.

ment-it is, and we mean it to be,
and no one should doubt it until

vent badness, stimulate the scalp

Inquiries about ti.is action from the
printed hearings is taken to Indicate
the temper Of that committee toward
the executive.
When Colonel Charles S. Bromwell,
military aide to the president and
superintendent of public buildings
and grounds, appeared before the
committee Representative Burleson of
Texas asked him if he had not re-
quested an appropriation last year for
a watchman for the old depot.
.'I think so," replied Colonel Brom-
well, "but I have not had any occa-
sion to use it because I have torn
down the railroad station . 5..-.
what! Torn down the railroad
Der. .@.-......-., ,...- 49, >,,-.. r..
Colonel Bromwell explained that he
tore down the building on written
order from the president of the Unit
ed States. -.
:'Do you know of any law on the
statute books that authorizes any ex-
ecutive officer to sell any of the prop
erty of the United States of that char
acter-real estate?" inquired Chair.
man Tawney of Minnesota.
"No, sir" replied the presidents
aide, II called the attention of the
higher authorities to that fact and
received an order to tear the building
down."
The committee also went into an
examination of government officials to
ascertain what right the commission
on country life, appointed by the pres
ident, had to use the franking priv
ilege, as it claimed was being done.
Members of the committee referred to
the commission as lone created with.

CASTRO ARRIVES IN PARIS
Promises Government Not to Be In
terviewed During His Stay.

tervIeWeo During HIS stay.
Paris, Dec. 2.-President Castro of
Venezuela arrived here and went d.
rectly to the Hotel Palais d'Orsay,
where apartments had been engaged.
The presidents physicians are anx-
ious that he reach Berlin as soon as
possible in order to undergo his op-
Grafton, should specialists consider
this necessary, with the least loss of
time, consequently Castro's stay in
Paris will be short.
It was officially announced that the
French government Informed Presi-
dent Castro that he would be ex-
PEELED from the country in case he
made any manifestation calculated to
disturb the public order," gave inter-
views to journalists or in any manner
inaugurate press campaign against
France or in justification of his own
attitude or that of the Venezuelan
government.
Castro gave assurances that he
came to France in the capacity of
private citizen to undergo an opera
tion and he promised to adhere to the
wishes of the government.

MAIL ORDER COMPETITION.

tits safe to say that any merchant
who goes energetically about it can
win back a lot of the mail order
trade of his community to his
store.
The trouble is that so many
merchants make the mistake of
spending their time knocking
mail order competition, instead of
boosting" their own business. They
forget that you can catch more
flies with sugar."
Arguing that a catalogue house
customer is not good citizen,
heaping abuse on the mail order
houses, telling people that they get
cheated most of the times they buy
by mail, doesn't count for much in
the long run.
The thing for the dealer in this
community to do is to tell his trade
what good merchandise they can buy
in the store; how far a little money
will 20 for reliable merchandise in
his store; that their credit is good,
if he does a credit business; that
they can see what they buy and pay
for it when they get it, and not buy
without seeing what they're getting
and paying for it week in advance;
that they can get what they want
when they want it, without waiting
a week or two for it to come by
mail or express.
The dealer who carries the best
goods he can find, sells them at the
lowest margin of profit that is
reasonable, advertises effectively,and
gives careful attention to the innum.
erable ways open to him of attract.
ing and holding trade will have little
to fear so far as mail order compe.
tition is concerned.

LARGE Thumbs.

"People Of great strength Of charac-
ter, who are guided by the head rather
than the heart, have large thumbs"
says Irving R. Bacon. "Whenever you
see a person with a strikingly large,
well developed thumb, you may be a.
most certain you have before you one
who is a natural born ruler, eminently
practical and fond Of whatever is use
full. Wherefore also he is fond of his
tory. A large thumbed woman may
fall in love as deeply as her small
thumbed sister, but will not marry un-
less she can see a sufficient bread and
butter supply ahead. But she is more
apt to be a real helpmate when adver-
sity comes."-New York Journal.

Bemidji People Are Pleased to Learn
How it Is Done.

It's pretty hard to attend to
duties
With a constantly aching back;
With annoying urinary disord-
erS.
Doan's Kidney Pills make work
easier.
They cure headache.
They cure every kidney i'll.
Frank Engels, living at AIS
Minnesota Ave., Bemidji, Mimi,

publicly recommending Doan's
Kidney Pills, as I am confident
that my testimonial will be the
means of bringing relief to some
sufferer of kidney trouble. There
was dull aching in the small of
my back for many months, and
my kidneys were very much
disordered. The secretions from
these organs were unnatural in
appearance. At last I decided to
try Doan's Kidney Pills and pro-
cured a box at the Owl Drug
Store. began using them care
fully as directed, the pain disap-
peared and the kidney secretions
became more natural.
