The air passages Of the head, throat and
lungs are lined with mucous membrane which
in health secretes a thin, watery liquid to
kept moist. When person takes cold
this membrane becomes infamed. The in.
fammation is at first acute and is easily
cured, but when a cold fingers for weeks the
Inflammation becomes chronic and thick.
offensive mucus is secreted. The disease al
this stage is known as chronic catarrh and is
seldom, if ever, permanently cured. The
time to effect a cure is when the cold is first
contracted and the inflammation is in the
acute stage. All that is needed is a bottle Of
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Take it and
quick cure is certain. Very often chronic
catarrh is contracted in childhood. Parents
do not realize the serious consequences that
may follow and permit colds contracted by
their children to linger for weeks. As con-
sequence the child becomes afflicted with
chronic catarrh from which it never wholly
RECEIVERS. The catarrh may cause no serious
Inconvenience while the child is young and
strong but becomes burden when older.

REPUBLICAN LEADERS
HOLD CONFERENCE
Senate Opposes Legislation Of
General Character.

Washington, 4 J. IA conference
was held between Senators Aldrich
and Hale and Representative Watson,
Republican whip of the house, look
ing to the arrangement of a pro
gramme for legislation for the re
mainder of the session.
The senate leaders made it clear
that they did not propose to enact any
laws of a general character, as the
appropriation bills will occupy prac.
tically all of the remaining time.
Mr.. Watson said that the house
would pass the statehood bills for Ari.
IONA and New Mexico and possibly
the Knox bill regulating shipments Of
Intoxicating liquors into "dry" com.
munities.
It was suggested by the senate
leaders that if the latter measure
should come over from the house the
senate might amend it by adopting a
more radical measure. Such meas.
ure is not desired by the house lead.
ers and it is likely that the question
Of passing the Knox bill will be con.
sidered fully before a decision Is

It is reported that Sir Edward Grey,

Under the provision of what is
Known as Senator Clapp's amendment
all mixed blood allottees are entitled

timber lands just as soon as nike
blood becomes legally possessed of it.
Hence an order has been sent to
Agent Howard at White Earth to look
carefully into all applications of the
mixed bloods. A series of questions
has been sent to Agent Howard
which he is to PROFOUND to all ap
plicants for fee simple deeds.
The Indian department wants to

with the allotted lands to be decided
whether or not spectators have i'm.

suBscRlPTloN-.s5.oo PER ANNuM
ROBUSTNESS OF OUR NeRvY NEIGHBoRs.

The Grand Rapids Herald Re-
view is authority for the statement
that Senator Dan Gum has plans to
secure an agricultural school for
Grand Rapids, to be operated in
connection with the Northeast Elk
perimental Farm, and that he will
soon introduce bill in the senate
providing for the school.
P. H. McGarry, representative in
the same district, is now making
strenuous fight for the location of a
new normal school at Cass Lake,
and announces that he will soon
ask for an appropriation for the
state sanitarium at Walker. -
And the Walker Pilot of last week
tells thusly of a movement that is on
foot to establish an agricultural
school at Pine River, in Gums and
McGarry's district. ..... ..-.
wv. H. Hallet of Pequot was down
last week with pockets bullying out
withIbills which he wished introduced
at this session. One was for an agri,
cultural school at Pine River.
Representative Doyle this week in
troduced bill for such an institution
at Foley, in his district.
The idea of establishing county
agricultural schools is taking we'll
with the people throughout the
state; and the day may not be in
the far distance when each county
may look for state aid in this re-
spect. Pine River would afford a
good location for an institution Of
this sort.''
Our neighbors over to the east
are certainly not at all backward in
seeking favors from the state; and
if it is necessary to coin a new

dressing Denial to Panama General
Assembly and Suggests That Pres-
ident-EIect Taft Withdraw His En-.
dorsements Of William N. Cromwell.
Washington, Jan. As soon as
he could get the floor Representative
Rafney (1ll.) read to the house the
cablegram which he received from
Charles P. Taft, in which the brother
Of the president-elect denied that he
has ever had any business association;
with William Nelson Cromwell or any
interest at any time in the isthmus
Of Panama. In his message he asked
Mr.. Rainey to retract his statements
regarding Mr.. Taft which he made in
his speech on Tuesday.
Mr.. Rainey said that he had not
the slightest desire to controvert the
statement Of Mr.. Taft, but that it was
not necessary for him to retract any
thing he said in his speech, from
which he quoted his reference to Mr..
Taft.
.'The country will be glad to know
that Mr.. Taft's name is being used
there without his consent" he said.
Il desire to say, in this connection,
that Mr.. Taft could render great
service and his denial will be of
greater value If he should without de-
lay address telegram to the general
assembly of Panama denying his con-
nection with the scheme have de-
scribed and repudiating Mr.. Cromwell
on the isthmus of Panama with as
much enthusiasm as he has in his
telegram to, me repudiating all con-
nection with that gentleman.
4 think might also with propriety
suggest that the preside can,
at the present time, render no greater
service to his country than he can
render by withdrawing his frequent
public endorsements of William Mel
son Cromwell. At the present time
Mr.. Cromwell and Mr.. Farnham are
proceeding under certificates Of good
character given them in the past by
the president-elect.'
Mr.. Rainey declared that as pres
fdent Mr.. Taft should remove both
Mr.. Cromwell and Mr.. Farnham from
their present official positions.

GERMS IN Her SYSTEM
Every Woman Should Read This.

The number Of diseases peculiar
to women is such that we believe
this space would hardly contain a
mere mention Of their names, and it
is a fact that most Of these diseases
are of a catarrhal nature. A woman
cannot be we'll if there is trace of
the catarrhal germs in her system.
Some women think there is no
help for them. We positively de-
clare this to be a mistaken idea.
We are so sure Of this that we offer
to supply the medicine absolutely
free of cost in every instance where
it fails to give entire satisfaction or
does not substantiate our claims.
With this understanding, no woman
should hesitate to believe our
honesty of purpose, or hesitate to
put our claim to a test.
There is only one way to cure
Catarrh. That way is through tie
blood. You may use all the snuffs,
douches or like remedies for years
without getting more than tenn
porary relief at best. Catarrn is
caused by a germ. That germ is
carried by the blood to the inner
most part of the system until the
mucous membrane is broken, irrita-
ton and inflammation produced,
and flow of mucous results, and
you can probably realize how silly
1t is to attempt to cure such an all
ment unless you take a medicine
that follows the same course as the
germ or parasite.
Rexall Mucu-T Tone is scientifically
prepared from the prescription of an
eminent physician who for thirty
years made his speciality Catarrh,
and with this medicine he averaged
90 per cent of cures where it was
employed. No other remedy is so
properly designed for the ailments
of women. It will purify and en-
rich the blood, stop mucous dis
charge, destroys all germ matter,
remove all impurities from the sys-
TEN, soothe, heal and strengthen
the mucous tissues, and bring about
a good feeling of health and
strength.
We want you to try Rexall Mucu-
Tone on our guarantee. If you are
not benefited, or for any reason
not satisfied, simply tell us and we
| will hand back your money. Rexall
Mucu-Tone comes in two sizes, SOC
