SAVED BY SENTIMENT
Two Live Teddy Bears Escape from
the Knife of the Butcher

Fargo, n. D., Sept. 29-Big Crowds
surrounded the Taft party wherever ii
stopped yesterday in it's course over
the Great Northern Railroad through
Minnesota and North Dakota The six
teen speeches which Mr.. Taft delivered
through the day and evening worked
sad havoc with the voice he started
out with in the morning. and last
night it was again in bad condition
The day had two features, the Grand
Forks, y. D., meeting and the Fargo
rally last night. In both places ire
mendouS crowds were out and in each
city the candidate made three speeches
The Fargo meeting included the
striking feature of a huge barbecue
Ten steers and twenty sheep furnished
food for the multitudes. The feast was
participated in by thousands of excur-
sionists, who had come from as far as
IS miles distant.
1t was just dark when the Taft spe-
cial reached the end of it's days run
and the people of Fargo were out in
force to extend the welcome. A torch
light procession, made picturesque by
the squad of mounted cowboys with
their characteristic yells. escorted the
Ohioan through the town and out tC
the fort.
1t had been planned that bear meat
should be a part of the feast, but the
two black bears, captured sometime
ago and fattened on nuts for the &C.
casion, calmly looked on at the feast
of which they were to have been a
part They were chained 10 a table al
which the candidate stood to eat his
bread and meat and drink hot coffee
The bears We're saved because of the
sentiment that it would never do tC
have the candidate eat up the "rea
Teddy BEARS" as they were designated
by a large sign over them.

The man who waits for a proven,

stock is worth. It's the man who takes
chance on the ground floor that real

lose out entirely and every time if you
wait for "einch.". Equal parts of
nerve and common sense will be found
a very paIatabIe dose and combina-
