BALD HEADS NOT WANTED
Badness is too Generally Considered a
Sign Of Advanced Age.

A bald-headed person does not
have an equal chance with one blessed
with healthy head of hair, because
badness is too generally accepted
as an indication of age. Many
large corporations have established
an age limit, and refuse to take men
over thirty-fve years of age as new
employees. T.
Almost IS per cent of bald-headed
people may regain a good head of
healthy hair if they will follow our
advice and accept our offer. We
have a remedy that we positively
guarantee to grow hair on any head,
unless the roots are entirely dead,
their follicles closed, and the scalp
has become glazed and shiny. We
want people to try this remedy at
our risk, with the distinct under
standing that unless it does exactly
what we claim it will, and gives sat
isfaction in every respect, we shall
make no charge for the remedy used
during the trial. -
We know exactly what we are
talking about, and with this offer
back of our statements no one should
scott, doubt our word or hesitate to
put our remedy to an actual test.
We want every one suffering from
any scalp or hair trouble, dandruff,
falling hair or badness, to try our
Rexall "93" Hair Tonic. We want
them to use it regularly-say until
three bottles have been used-and
if it does not eradicate dandruff,
cleanse and refresh the scalp, tighten
the hair in its roots, and grow new
hair, we will return every cent paid
US for the remedy for the mere ask
ing. There is no formality expected
and we exact no obligation from the
user whatever.
We are established right here
where you live, and make this offer
with full understanding that our
business success entirely depends
upon the sort of treatment we &C.
cord our customers, and we would
not dare make the above offer except
that we are certain that we can sub
stantiate it in every particular.
Rexall "93" Hair Tonic comes in
two sizes, so cents and $1.OO. Re-
member you can obtain Rexall
Remedies in Bemidji only at our
store, The Rexall Store. Barker's
Drug Store.

ing strength by the logic of the
situation. 1t calls in the first place
for German, and real German,
not a smear Deutcher' Then the
place demands practical banker,
who has the confidence of his fell
low bankers and of the people.
Finally, there is the argument of
location. Northern Minnesota
has not a single state officer at the
present writing.
Judge Mills, of the railroad
commission, may be brought up
against him as an exception,
but Judge Mills has not lived in
Moorhead for so many years that
he would need a guide TO show
him the way to the courthouse.
The north counties will have a big
bunch of delegates in that state
convention, and their strength is
going to command some recogni-
ton. Even if DR.. A. B. Cole, of
Fergus Falls, does get the nomin-
alton for lieutenant governor, that
will not satisfy them. While the
office of lieutenant governor is
important to the people, it is small
potatoes from a political stand
point.
Northern Minnesota is going to
get something out of the convention,
and it will probably be the thing
northern Minnesota most wants

New candidates for state treasurer
are hopping into the state political
pot about every week, but the bigger
the field is the more Albert Kaiser
looks like the winner. The genial
north country German has more
friends than any one dreamed of.
While he has left the campaign to
his friends, and has not hustled in
person like some candidates, he has
far and away the most positive
support lined up. Other candidates

to pull him down, so the present

How many editors in this state
are willing to write articles about
the future prospects for Minnesota
in the dairying and agricultural
lines? 1t is believed that the
American Press Association can be
induced to make plates of these
articles and offer to the newspapers
such a service. The Association
can be assured that it will receive
hearty support by practically every
publication in the northern part of
the state. The possibilities along
these lines in this state cannot be
overestimated. We want the farmers
and the farmers want to come, but
where is the hitch? 1t is true, the
farmers are coming slow, but sure.
They should come in focks and
droves, and this can be brought
about, if the newspapers, the real
estate men and the boosters of this
great state would join the same band
and foot their horns together, then
the masses would at once fall in line
with the big base drum and results
would be amazing. Lets get-to-gether
and start something along these
lines.

Why are schools necessary to teach
newspaper workers? There is hardly
a real practical newspaper man in
the country who could not go out on
the street and throw a stone without
hitting somebody who thought he
knew more about how a paper ought
to be run, than a man who had
worked at the business for forty
years.

Nature Gives Timely Warnings That
No Bemidji Citizen Can Afford

DANGER SIGNAL NO. 1 comes

send out thin, pale and foamy, or
a thick, red, ill-smelling urine, full of
sediment and irregular of passage.
DANGER SIGNAL NO. 2 comes
from the back. Back pains, dull

I am confident that anyone who
uses the remedy will receive great
benefit. My trouble seemed to be of

PRICE OF HEALING GOES UP

Omaha Christian Scientists Advance

Omaha, Feb. 28.-Following the lead
set by Nebraska doctors of the old
school Christian Science healers Of
the state, owing, as they claim, to the
advanced cost of living, have raised
their rates for treating the afflicted.
Until recently the charges exacted by
the healers were SIS per weeks course
Of seven treatments, a treatment re-
quiring twenty to twenty-five minutes.
Now the price has been pushed up to
81 per treatment. Heretofore house
calls have always been $3.50 per visit,

BENNETT TOO STRICT
Objection Made to His Adherence t
Investigation Of Cases.

Washington. May 27.-Several
members of the house committee on
public lands at a hearing today on
matters affecting the public domain
expressed the opinion that Commits
sioner bennett of the general land Of
fee had interpreted too strictly the
act of 1909 for the protection of sur
face rights of entrymen.
Mr.. bennett was a witness before
the committee and in explaining the
administration of the law said that q
claim which had been withdrawn be-
cause of the presence Of coal would
not be permitted to 60 to patent until
q field investigation, established that
the entryman did not know when he
initiated his claims that the land was
valuable principally because Of the
coal deposits.
Representatives Mondell, Volstead
and Gronna disagreed with the COM
missioner and expressed the view that
the field Investigation was unneces-
sary unless there was something in
the papers filed by the entryman
which would give ground for sus-
picion that he had not acted in good
faith when he made his claim.

Preliminary Work on Two Great Bat.
tleships Has Been Completed.
Washington, May 27.-When Sec
retary Meyer set the seal of his ap-
proval upon plans for the two giant
battleships, No. "a and 35. provided
for in the naval appropriation bill,
soon to become law, he inaugurated
a new policy in American naval con-
struction.
Heretofore it has been the practice
to await an appropriation before un-
dertaking the preparation of plans for
naval vessels, with the result that
many months elapsed before the de-
partment was in position to call for
bids. In this case the work prac-
tically has been all done in advance.
The naval war college prepared the
rough outlines of the ships; these
were passed around among some of
the most able captains in the navy for
criticism and they were then revised
by the general board and placed in
the hands of the naval constructors.
Details of the vessels are withheld
but it is generally stated that they
will be of $4,000 tons and carry ten
fourteen-inch guns. making them
more formidable than any ship now
afloat.

Boston, May 27.-How to transfer

by George w. Coleman, the convicted
thieving bookkeeper Of the National
City bank Of Cambridge. at the trial
of his friend and New York COM
panion, William ]. Keliher.
Il told Keliher after l had taken
$185, 900 that the jig was up and that

but when that Official passed my
books without comment l continued
to take the money and to give it to
Keliher to bet it at faro" was one OF

The young bank clerk, who lived
at q half million dollar rate for
six months last year, held the entire
session today and his cross-examina-
ton had just begun when the trial
was adjourned.
Coleman, according to his own
story. was persistent gambler from
the very beginning of his business
career. Borrowing h. $500. from the
bank at the age Of 1S, when he was
receiving but 81 a week as a mes

MORE SMALL BILLS
Treasury is Exchanging Small De
nominations for Larger Ones.

Washington, May 27.-There is a
demand throughout the country for
paper money of the smaller denom-
nations which the treasury depart
ment is unable to meet. In order to
relieve the situation, the department
will encourage banks holding silver
certificates of the denomination Of SO
and over to send part of them to the
treasury SO that they may be ex-
changed for those of smaller denom-
ination. -
AS preliminary step a circular
note has been addressed to the banks
asking for data as to the silver GER
tificates of the denomination of SO
and over, held by them on June 2,
and whether it would be agreeable to
make the exchange proposed. Silver
certificates over the denomination OF
$40 issues by the government include
those for $40. $50, 800, $500 and
81, 900.
Several years ago when there was
a scarcity of IS notes the department
sought to increase their issue by the
same method as that now in view,
although the experiment was another
class at issue. 1t met with Indifferent
success, however, as only a limited
proportion of the banks seconded the
governments efforts.

pletion various irrigation projects in

Mr.. Hamer to say there was no bill
pending in congress in which he was
more interested and that he proposed
to use his personal influence to get
that piece of legislation through.
The president said that Idaho
would be one of the states most
greatly benefited by the legislation.
that he was interested in the matter
largely because Of Idaho and that he
would work for the measure despite
Senator Borah's hostile attitude
toward all of the administration
measures that have been introduced.

and the president Is said to have be-
come serious since the midnight con-
ference at the white house two weeks
