and L. E. Rood, the members of this busi-
ness house, were, previous to the establish
ment of their business in Bemidji, for ten
years extensive dry goods merchants at
Crookston. They carry an immense line of
dry goods, shoes, furnishings and notions
of the latest styles and textures and at
prices which range from high priced to
nominal. They make speciality of the
Foot-Schulz shoe, a Minnesota production of
the most desirable quality, and a shoe
which should be bought by all those who
have the best interests of the state at heart.
Messrs. o. G. and L. E. Rood are two
examples of what one can accomplish when
they devote their energies to self elevation
and success. From a modest beginning
these gentlemen have risen to a plane of
prominence in the business realm. Their
trade since their arrival here is increasing
at phenomenal rate, and their inherent
business qualities are bound to be produc-
tive of the same degree of success they
achieved when they were merchants in
Crookston.
The Rood Brothers are warm advocates
and active workers in the move to secure
for Bemidji the proposed Normal School,
and they say so. They make their declara-
tons good by pointing out the fact shat
Bemidji is the only practical point for the

THE METROPOLITAN CLUB.

This is the most Influential social club
in Bemidji composed as it is of the most
energetic and pushing men of the city,
who, besides having banded themselves
together for social intercourse are active
in their efforts to secure industries for
the city and further every motive which
tends to the city's betterment and ad-
vancement.
The Metropolitan Club has a member
ship of over 100, and Is comprised of the
most notable business men of the city.
The aim of the club is to propagate every
interest of Bemidu while enjoying social
contact and intercourse, and like the Be-
midji Commercial Club, the members of
this body are ever alert as to what is
doing relative to the city's welfare. The
officers of the club are:
]. F. Boss, president; w. N. Bowser,
vice-president; F. s. Arnold, secretary;
w. L. Brooks, treasurer.

In this Souvenir Edition of The Pioneer,
which will be read by thousands throughout
this section, it is our chief aim to signify
and prove by comparison that Bemidji con-
tains many of the most up-to-date stores to
be found anywhere. The above-named
grocery house is one of them. Go where
you may, you will not find a grocery better
stocked, better lighted and ventilated or
cleaner Downs & OLeary have, using
simple dialect, one of the most elegant and
metropolitan stores in the city and one
which is an exclusive grocery store from
one end to the other.
On the theory of being enterprising in
stock as we'll as store arrangements, this
firm has crowded the counters with an ele-
CANT and attractive array of the best known
canned goods, while the dried fruits Mocha
and Java Coffee aromatic teas and fresh
vegetables, sweet-scented and better tasting
butter are of the most wholesome and mer-
itorious character. They have been in bust
ness since the year 1906 and that they have
manifest by the daily deliveries they make
NJ A. Downs and F.. J. O'Leary are two
self-made men, both having been clerks
prior to their entry into business. Mr.
Downs has been resident of Bemidji for
ten years, and Mr.. O'Leary was, for three
years, employed by O'Leary & Bowser.
They are trained in buying as well as SELL
ing, ana nence Cle1r customers get the Ueu-
eft of experience in both quality and price,
They guarantee every sale they make their
deliveries are up to the promised minute,
and as merchants they are congenial, &C
commodatfng and gentlemanly.
Mesrs. Downs and O'Leary are fmbued
with the spirit of local pride They are de-
sirous of seeing Bemidji grow, and are con-
tributing their share of good work to that
end. They are among the merchants who
cooperate with the others to advertise this
section as pleasure resort, and deserve
unstinted patronage as home institution,
they rank among the first.

an operation or drag out a sickly,
half-hearted existence, missing three
fourths of the JOY of living, when they
can find health in Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compounds

standard remedy for female ills, and

have been troubled with such all
ments as displacements, Inflammation,
liberation, fbroid tumors, Irregular
ties, periodic pains, backache, indiges-
ton, and nervous prostration.
If you have the slightest doubt
that Lydia Il. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound will help you,
write to Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn,
Mass, for advice. Your letter

RECEIVING ADDITIONAL LAND FOR HosPI-
TAI.-MUCH BUSINESS DoNE-HEALTH COMMITTEE OF BOARD
OF SUPERVISORS ATTENDANCE.

E. A. Mott-Smith, Secretary of Ha-
wall, had Inauguration of himself as
President of the Board of Health at a
meeting of that body yesterday after
noono True, he had been for a week
or so performing the duties of the Of
flee in conducting it's affairs at head
tunity of presiding over the delibera-
lions of the board. There was a full
attendance of the members, viz, Fred
G. Smith, DR.. j. T. Wayson, James f.
Morgan, d. Kalauokalani and Attorney
General c. r. Hemenway. After the
reading of the minutes, the president
made few remarks. He would have
been more diffident in assuming the
responsibilities were it not that he was
certain of the cooperation of the mem
bers and reliant upon the experience Of
most of them in the affairs of the
board. In conclusion he stated that the
legislature had left the board in very
good shape financially. Then he went
on with the business, announcing the
appointment OF J. S. Aiea as keeper OF
the Kalihi receiving station in place OF
the removed incumbent, and of N. II.
Lemon as registrar for the district OF
Kona The Board promptly approved
of these appointments.
The president then stated that Dr.
Hayes, the dispensary physician had
applied for the position of physician on
which the legislature had made pro-
vision, and that Dr. Mackall was an
applicant for the place of DR.. Hayes
at the dispensary. On motion the board
designated these physicians for the
posts mentioned respectively.
j. A. Rath, superintendent of the Pa
lama Settlement, the president stated,
had offered to attend without charge so
the distribution of simple remedies,
bandages, ETC., to the Kauuwela, Kaiu-
lani, Maemae and Royal schools. 1t
was mentioned that two thousand chill
dren had received treatment at the Pa
lama Hospital within recent period.
DR.. Wayson considered that the peri
patetic dispensary service rendered was
necessary and, the cost being a matter
of but 5000 or $500, it was voted that
the offer be accepted
Referring to the legislative request
that nineteen named persons at Kalau-
papa be brought to the Kalihi receiving
station for re-eXamination, the presi-
dent stated that the re-eXamination OF
/ eleven previously brought down was
not yet completed. DR.. Wayson asked
| for further time in that matter as the
work had been delayed through the
refusal of some of the patients to striI
for inspection. Time was granted
The president explained that the bring
ing of the nineteen was delayed owing
to a discrepancy between some of thu
names and the records, which Superin
tendent McVeigh would endeavor tC
clear up on his return to the Settle
ment.
A petition from a woman at Kalau
papa to be allowed to come to Kalih
for treatment either by DR.. Atcherle.
or DR.. WaysOn was, on motion of DR.
Wayson, denied. One or two petition
for helpers were granted on the advio,

Fear1 Cry residents potitioned for the
appointment of an agent of the Board
at that place, recommending j. r. Mills
for the Office. AS it was thought to be
a matter for the attention of the Board
of Supervisors, no action was taken.
Reports of the dispensary and OF
sanitary officers were placed on file
without reading. An invitation for the
members to see some new moving pic
lures at Mr.. Bonine's studio was ac-
cepted.
President Mott-Smith brought up the
matter of the expiration of the lease of
the ground of the Kalihi receiving sta
ton, submitting two proposals. One
was for renewal of the lease from Mr..
Damon to include additional land much
needed to accommodate the new hospi-
tai for which the Legislature had pro-
vided. The other was for the pur-
chase of a tract of land from the Ka-
piolani Estate no price being mention
ed, which would include Sand Island
oItlhhlAS Jul WV lllNhCo dDONt nlSll
water mark He favored the lease be-
cause the location of the institution
had been changed three times, and
with the expansion of the city was like
ly not to be a permanency. The gov
ernment had land farther out that way,
also at Waianae, alsco at Koko Head.
There was strong popular objection to
having the station in any of the valleys
to windward The president exhibited
blue print maps and also plans for the
hospital. He stated that Mr.. Damon
did not wish to take advantage of the
Boards position which gave him the
legal right to "the whole shooting
match"
On motion of Mr.. Hemenway, second
ed by DR.. Wayson, the president was
instructed to close the lease with Mr..
Damon.
The president reported as in pro-
gress the preparation of blank certiii-
Gates of births, marriages and deaths
in conformity with the methods of the
Bureau of Census.
Mr.. Smith as the senior member and
connected with the board for eight
years, at the conclusion of the regular
business became the spokesman of the
board to congratulate President Mott
| Smith on his accession. He said Il
was rather the Territory that should be
congratulated in having at the head o
the health department a man of sucI
large experience IN public affairs ant
well acquainted with the duties of tn,
office from a former connection will
the board. In conclusion he moved thu
resolution that he had moved on forme
similar occasions, giving the presiden
full authority to make appointment
and do other necessary business be
tween meetings of the board, which
passed unanimously.

better progress as it will not require
timbering. VIM. BRIGGS
