Remarkable Home Treatment
For All Foot Troubles

: dissolve two tablespoonfuls of
Calocide compound in a basin of hot
water soak the feet in this for full
nIteen minutes. dess time will not
bring results.) Massage the sore parts
gently while in the water" This
should be repeated for a number of
nights until the cure is permanent.
The enects are almost magical. All
soreness goes instantly and the feet
feel so good that the whole nervous
system is benefited. Corns and CAL
louses can be peeled right of.
Bunions are reduced and the inflam-
nation drawn out: Sweaty, bad smell
ing feet and swollen, tender feet need
but few applications. Any drug
gist has Calocide in stock or will get
It from his wholesale house. A twen-
ty.fve cent package is usually suf-
hcient to cure the worst feet, Calocide
is not patent medicine. Formerly
used only by. doctors, but now is OBJ
tainab!e by the public in general. and
is saving many an hour Of torture for

TEXT BOOKS WILL Be
CHANGED THIS
YEAR
Board of Education Plans the
First General Revision in
Nearly Twenty Years

For the first time in eighteen or
twenty years, general change in the
books of the Grand Forks public
schools is contemplated by the board
of education. About eighteen years
ago slight change was made, when
an old style geography was super
ceded by later edition, containing
the more recent changes, the census
figures and the industrial statistics of
the more recent dates.
This is quite a record, as in many
cities changes are being made con-
tinually. The change contemplated at
the present time by the Grand Forks
board of education is felt necessary.
Newer editions of school books have
been improved in many ways, includ-
ing the addition of new subjects in
the curriculum.
The change this year will affect all
of the grades. The only book to be
retained is Hunts speller. Among the
new books to be introduced into the
schools are the following:
Gordey's United States history,
Scribner.
Arithmetic, Appleton.
Readers, Heath.
Physiology good health, Heath.
Geography Qeading factsO CHM and
company.
Language, Appleton.
Primary history, American Book
company.
Rational Method of Reading by Sill
ver-Burdette and company, is to be
used as basic reader in the first and
second grades.
The books were selected after the
most careful investigation upon the
part of the superintendent and board
of education. A committee of teachers
of the city schools spent two or three
weeks in exhaustive investigation of
hundreds of books submitted by the
publishing houses and then made for
NAL report to the board.
With the report of this committee
of teachers, together with the written
request of the grade teachers, the
board began its deliberations some ten
days ago and has been in session a
number of times since. Representa-
tives of the publishing houses were
permitted to appear before the board
and present the merits of their various
books. These hearings continued up
until Tuesday morning, when the board
went into executive session and made
their selections. There will be scarce
ly any changes in the high school
text books.
The only consideration in the selec-
ton of these text books was their
merit and a glance at the list chosen,
shows that no one company
got any large share of the business.
The selections, 1t is thought, will be
much to the advantage of the schools
and the board feels that the choices
made are to the best advantage and
will help considerably in the general
advancement Of the work in the
Grand Forks schools. Superintendent
]. Nelson Kelly, Principal w. C. Steb-
bins and Secretary f. F.. Burchard
acted In conjunction with the school
board in the selection Of the books.

One feature of the change that will
be interesting to the parents of the
school children, is that all old text
books, regardless of make, will be
exchange for new books at the rate
Of forty per cent of the cost of the
new book.
These books will be placed on sale
several days before school opens at
the book stores of the city as orders

THE HUMAN MACHINE
Gives From 25 to 80 Per Cent. Profit
on Expense of Keeping 1t Up.

Prof. Jules Amar recently submitted
to the Academy at Medicine in Paris
the results of his study of the human
machine. He proceeded upon the pr.n-
ciple that a man who eats literally
ought To reeuperate in weight every
"a hours.
If his weight increases he has not
expended the maximum effort. Amar
found mat the human machine gives
a profit OF % TO 81 per cent. on the eN-
penditure, but that the best artificial
machine returns Only IA per cent.
1t would seem from these expert
ments., says the Dietetic ard Hygenic
Gazette, that man is indeed superior
to all mechanisms; with the very slight
exceptions that he always wastes en-
ergv during the first five minutes Of
work before regaining his equilibrium
1t would seem that Mondays human
labor is the most inferior and Tues
days the most superior, owing to the
curious action of Sunday as a rest
day; the Monday lassitude of the
French wo-kingnan is proverhial. And
1t Is found that the workman who does
'nof rest gradually loses his energr.
fand this is now subject of Keen in
terest among scientists.

The improvements which had for

the office of the Purinton Bros. Co,
dealers in coal and wood, are COM
pleted and the company now has one
of the prettiest offices in town. The
principal change was effected in doub-
ling the size of the Office by removing
a partition which separated the front
office from the rear. The counter was
then SWINE round -crosswise of the
room, which allows plenty of space
both in front and behind. The office
is also connected at the east end with
a roomy private office. The wains-
coating and desk in the front office
are of cypress, natural finish and the
walls are finished rough and painted
a very light brown tint. while the steel
ceiling is done in white. The grill
which surmounts the counter. also the
steam radiator. are done in green
bronze, and the furniture is mission
oak. Aside from the increased con-
venience which is afforded by the work
Just completed the apartment is very
attractive in appearance and is one
Of the prettiest offices in the city.
