growth of the hair. It also stops the
hair from falling out, and makes it
beautiful. = .

Sees Great Things for North.

The statement of Mr.. Willard, the
soil expert of the Northern Pacific
railway and a recognized authority
in everything pertaining to the agri-
cultural possibilities of the soil, as
contained in another column in this
issue, is certainly a gratifying one.
While Beltrami county will get the
greater benefit from it, the entire
north will profit. There can be but
little doubt but that real permanent
settlement of this section will soon
begin, and with it will come last
ing prosperity. 1t is a pity that road
development has not progressed as it
should to the point where the set
tling process could have been aided
and not hindered as it will be-, but
it seems probable that a determined
effort to get roads will be the pre-
dominant feature from this on

PYRAMID OF CHEOPS.
It Would Takes Hundred Millions to
Duplicate Il TODAY.


Duplicate It Today.
One of the most familiar questions
asked by personally conducted' tour
lists visiting Egypt and the great pyra-
mid built by Cheops is, IL wonder how
much it cost to build it?' A building
contractor with a head for figures and
building estimates has estimated that
the Cheops pyramid could not be dupli-
Gated today for less than 100000, 900.
With modern machinery and the, en-
ployment of 10000 stonecutters, haul
.ers, quarrymen, masons and laborers
duplicate of the pyramid could be
erected in two years.
It has been calculated that the work
really required the services of 100000
men for thirty years. The Cheops
pyramid occupies space Of 12N acres
and is TAG feet high and contains 49,
315,OO0 cubic yards Of stone and gran
fte. The material alone represents an
item of $36,OOO,OOO, while the labor
would increase this about by 72,OOO,-
600. To this must be added $3,0O0,OO0
for tools, transportation and similar
items. The pyramid is built on a solid
rock $50 feet deep, and to build foun-
dation of this character would add to
the cost to the extent Of making the
total of $1O0,O00,O ,OO0.-New York World.
