CHICAGO man KILLS
AN ARMED R0BBER
Latter Wounds Intended Victim
as He Falls to Floor.

Chicago, Feb. 17.-Drawing a revol.
yer from a drawer of table in his
real estate Office, Jacob Bzdek shot
and instantly killed Bruce Morgan
after the latter had threatened to
shoot him unless he turned over ST..
500 which was in the safe.
AS Bzdek fired the shot which killed
Morgan the wounded man fired two
shots, one Of which struck the real es.
tate dealer in the head, causing a Sc.
riOus wound.
Morgan entered the Office while
Bzdek was talking with two friends.
"Give me your money, open the door
Of that safe, or I will kill all of you,'
warned Morgan, as he pointed re-
volver at Bzdek. 81 thought you were
alone, but I am going to get away with
this just the same
AS the three held their hands above
their heads Bzdek moved closer to the
table in which lay his revolver. While
Morgan shifted his revolver for mo-
ment Bzdek seized his gun and fired
over his shoulder. l.
Bzdeks move was discerned too late
by Morgan, but as he fell he fired
twice. Bzdek received q severe scalp
wound. ~ ST. .s-l-t..rra@ sis.

The farmer and the city folk;
those who so seriously object to the
farmer moving to the city because
they claim that the farm is the health.
lest place to live, should remember
that in the city you can take bath
for the small sum of rs cents, while
in the country the only facilities for
ablution consist of a pail of water, a
bar of soap. and an apartment in
the barn with the snow blowing in
through an open window. Under
such conditions is it any wonder
that the microbes of discomfort
hurish in the system of the agricul-
tural laborer? Not so in Minnesota.

James J. Hill-The good land in
this state, every acre of it, can pro-
duce at a low estimate from $12 to
SIS per acre. It can be made to
produce $40 per acre. If it produces
S12 per acre that is ten per cent
on $3.50 an acre farm. You think
if some one would come and offer
you $50 or SIS or 500 an acre you
would stick him.
Now if you can't buy an equal
number of acres of land for less
money, don't sell your land. Hold
on to it. The time will come when
it will be worth 500 per acre il
you take care of it and there is
no reason why it should not be
worth $15O.-Warroad Plain dealer.

THE CAUSE OF COLDS
Good Advice Regarding the Preven-
T., ton Of Coughs and Colds. 49,

If people would only fortify and
strengthen the system, the ma
|jority of cases of coughs, colds and
pneumonia might be avoided.
These troubles are frequently due
to weakness, which produces a
catarrhal condition of the mucous
membrane, which. is an internal
skin of the body. When this skin
is weakened it becomes easily in
fected with germs which cause
many of the diseases to which flesh
is heir. Healthy mucous men,
branes are essential safeguards of
the body's general health.
| An excellent aid in the proven
ton of coughs, colds and pneu-
monia, and such like infectious
diseases, is a remedy that will
prevent or cure catarrh. .@
We have a remedy which we
honestly believe to be unsurpassed
in excellence for the prevention of
coughs, colds and all catarrhal con-
ditions. tits the prescription of a
famous physician, who has an en-
viable reputation Of thirty years of
cures gained through the use Of
this formula. We promise to
make no charge for the medicine
should it fail to do as we claim.
We urge everybody who has need
of such a medicine to try Rexall
! Mucu- Tone.
1t stands to reason that we could
not afford to make such statements
and give our own personal guar
antee to this remedy if we were
not prepared to prove the rea-
sonableness of our claim in every
particular, and we see no reason
why anyone should hesitate to ac-
cept our offer and try it. We have
two sizes of RexalI Mucu- Tone,
prices 50 cents and $1:oo. Some
times So cent bottle is sufficient
to give marked relief. AS gem
eral thing the most chronic case
is relieved with an average Of three
large bottles. You can obtain
Rexall Remedies in Bemidji only

The old familiar song, Cheer,
Cheer, the Gangs All Here" very
appropriately expresses the feeling
among the delegates assembled in
Bemidji today. There are more
real men in the city today, than
have been here for many months
These men have brought with them
enthusiasm, and plenty of it, and its
the kind that makes meetings inter.

DEATH OF JULIA WARD HOWE.
End of Career of Gifted Authoress
and Philanthrorist.

Middletown, R. Julia Ward Howe
is dead. Bowed under the weight OF
her 81 years, the noted philanthropist
and authoress succumbed peacefully
to an attack of pneumonia at ner
home on Monday.
Julia Ward Howe was born in New
York City on the 9th day of May
1919.
During the course of her long life
Mrs. Howe was at the very forefront
OF many movements which had to dc
with American literature, philanthropy
and the emancipation of her sex
From the early days Of her woman
hood she was woman of conse
quence, a woman of affairs, woman
who had a very high conception of
the duties of life Although of the
gentlest spirit, Mrs. Howe was for
years most ardent woman suffragist
Mrs. Howe was a frequent contribu-
tor to some of the best magazines OF
the country. She was also poetess
who found ready response in the
hearts of the people and then, as an
evidence of her versatility, she turned
her pen to play writing, at which she

HIS HANDS CRACKED OPEN

II am a man seventy years old. My
hands were very sore and cracked
open on the insides for over year
with large sores. They would crack
open and bleed, itch, burn and ache
so that / could not sleep and could do
but little work They were so bad
that | could not dress myself in the
morning. They would bleed and the
blood dropped on the floor. | called
on two doctors, but they did me no
good. | could get nothing to do any
good till | got the Cuticura Soap and
Cuticura Ointment. About a year
ago my daughter got cake of Cuti-
cura Soap and one box of Cuticura
Ointment and in one week from the
time / began to use them my hands
were all healed up and they have not
been a mite sore since. ! would not
be without the Cuticura Remedies.
"They also cured bad sore on the
hand of one of my neighbours children,
and they think very highly of the Cuti-
cura Remedies. John w. Hasty, So. Ef-
