Steps In Advance.

1t is impossible to forecast the prac
teal results flowing from the Sanborn
decision in case it is affirmed by the
supreme court. The actual. tangible
effects realized from similar antitrust
decisions in the past are not entirely
encouraging. yet it must be remember
ed that something has been gained at
each step. some advance has been
made and that the representatives of
their very failures. With accumulat-
ing presidents and decisions to help
and guide and with past experience to
warn. the government Is constantly In
better position to enforce the law
and shows an increased determination
to do so. The case against the tobacco
trust is already before the supreme
court and will probably be decided in
December. There are many identical
points in the two suits, and the deci-
sion in the lower courts was largely
similar. There will probably be an
effort to have them passed upon at
about the same time. provided the
Standard lawyers get their appeal be-
fore the court in time. At any rate.
the matter will be pushed through
with all possible haste, so that the de-
cree against both trusts can be put
into effect early in the new year.

LIFEISN'T WORTHLVING
WHEN THIS STATEMENT Is MADE
1T MAY BE GENERALLY At
TRIBUTED TO THE LACK
OF GOOD HEALTH.

, We want to talk to people who are
nervous, who suffer frequent mead
aches, who don't enjoy their food, who
are irritable, quickly lose their temper,
who are so exhausted that they feel
they must give up, and have become
so respondent that life doesn't seem
worth living. We believe we know
what is the matter with these people
in this condition, and if they will fol-
low our advice we can tell them how
to regain good health and that buoy
ancy OF feeling which makes life seem
surrounded with happiness and sun
shine.
Most OF the above described con-
ditions are chiefly caused by what is
commonly called catarrh, a below
par1 condition of mucous membrance.
This delicate lining of certain of the
body cavities becomes weakened, in
famed and congested until the whole
system is weakened, mental depres-
sion ensuing as one OF the results. The
wise way to overcome this condition is
through a treatment of the. general
system. We have the treatment and
we are so positive 1t will produce the
results we claim for it that we will
supply 1t to any one with the under
standing that we will return to them
every penny paid US in every instance
where the treatment is not in every
way satisfactory and beneficial to
them.
We want you to try Rexall Mucu-
Tone, which is a scientifically devised
alternative tonic and body builder, its
action being to aid the body in its
effort to re- establish the natural and
healthy functions OF the mucous mem
branes. a.
Rexall Mucu Tone thus acts to ex-
pei the catarrhal poison" restore the

Come to our store and get bottle
of Mucu- Tone, and after giving it a
reasonable trial. Ii you are not salts

ton. Surely nothing could be more

Sees SUPERIOR
AFTER 20 YEARS
cHAs. JENNINGS OF FARGO, WHO
OWNS PROPERTY AT HEAD OF
LAKES, TELLS OF THE BOOM
DAYs-Is GREATLY SURPRISED
AT GROWTH OF SUPERIOR.

Chas. Jennings, a prominent North
ern Pacific engineer, OF Fargo, N. D.,
who is an owner of some valuable
property in Superior, was in the city
looking after his business interests,
says The Superior, Wis, Telegram.
After talking with his agents, City
Treasurer Alvord and other Superior
people, Mr. Jennings left for Two Har-
bors, where he will attend the wedding
of his daughter.
Mr.. Jennings has not been in Supe-
rior since 1888, when he bought his
property here. Although he paid as
much for it then as it is worth now,
he is highly satisfied with the invest
ment. He bought the property on the
eve of the big boom in Superior realty
and decided to hold it as an invest
ment
when the boom was on accepted
a couple Of offers for my Broadway
holdings" said Mr.. Jennings" but the
deals failed to materialize after the
earnest money had been paid. I got
one lot back twice after 1t had been
sold in this manner"
II paid more for my property then
than can sell it for right now" con-
tinued the Fargo man, "and as fan
back as 1883 considered it a gooc
buy. Developments at Superior have
been slower than expected, but the
indications are much better now than
they were then. Those who realized
the value of Superiors stragetic posi-
ton in the battle for commercial su-
premacy in the middle west, put our
money in Superior realty rather than
Invest in larger cities and I am still
confident that made a good bet"
Mr.. Jennings hardly knew the town
after an absence of twenty years. Al
ter looking over the city he was able
to recognize some of the landmarks
of the early days and commented upon
the indications of recent growth.
"You have a great city in the max
ing" said he, land I'm surprised a

sible to buy"

With the corridors and staircases
lined with Indians, sduaws and little
papooses and the court room filled
with witnesses subpoenaed to testify,
the United States grand jury started
its deliberations this morning. For
several days, infractions of the federal
criminal laws will be investigated.
Behind the closed doors of the grand
jury room, stories OF crimes on the
reservations and in connection with
federal institutions will be recited.
What goes on, no one outside of the
grand jury and the district attorney
will have any knowledge.
The jury reported at 10 o'clock this
morning and for half an hour was
addressed by the court. Every phase
Of the duty Of grand juror was ex-
planned in detail. The members were
warned against considering outside
influences in connection with their in
vestigations. Such evidence as is pre-
