might send message of ten words for
a certain price and that address and
signature would not count. After as

GREAT SALT LAKE.
An Immense Fresh Water Sea Some
Thousands of Years AGO.

In glacial times Great Salt lake was
a magnificent fresh water lake the size
of Lake Huron-that is, about $4,000
square miles-and had its outlet into
the Port Neuf, the Snake and the Co.
lumbia rivers. This was at least 10000
years ago. but since that time the eli
mate has become arid, and not enough
water has fallen over the Great basin
to supply that lost by evaporation.
Consequently the lake has ceased to
flow from it's outlet and gradually dried
up from over thousand feet deep to
fifteen feet and from $4,000 square
miles in area to less than 100.
1t is now seventy miles long and
about thirty wide. but is beautiful
still and is the home of myriads Of
sea birds and other waterfowl 1t is
the great resort Of the people of Utah.
for from 5000 to 5000 visit its shores
daily in the summer, and many battle
in its waters. The lake contains about
1000. 100000 tons of salt
When the lake is high the salt Is so
uuuISu ludl H. udS oOuc uOWu "
per cent. When it is low. us it was
not many years ago. it reached satura-
ton which for the mixed ingredients
of the water is SO per cent.
There is nothing mysterious about it
any more than there would be about a
teacup with teaspoonfuI of salt in
the bottom. If tablespoonful Of
water we're put in the cup on the salt
it would taste very salty. but if the
cup were filed to the brim with water
it would not.
The salt has come from the water of
the rivers flowing into it since it
ceased to flow from its outlet All
river water contains salt. and the an
nual evaporation of from two to five
cubic miles of this water leaves large
quantities Of salt behind. and so it has
accumulated for thousands Of years.

This is the Case With Many Bemidji
People.

Too many Bemidji citizens are
handicapped with bad back.
The unceasirg pain causes con-
slant misery, making work a bur-

night, preventing refreshing rest
and in the morning is stiff and
lame. Plasters and liniments may
give relief but cannot reach the
cause. To eliminate the pains and
aches you must cure the kidneys.
