eral governments contention that land

in connection with the fish hatchery

that If not used by the government
within 20 years. che land should re-

In the journal de Medicine de Paris,
DIR. FIaschar recommends pineapple
juice as one OF the best remedies FOR
catarrh and like affections of the
Bronchial tubes, especially when at

claims it is effective, free from danger
and any unpleasant result. He pre-
scribes it In doses OF eight to ten
teaspoonfuls first. gradually tsirnin-
ishing the doses as Improvement be-
comes apparent.
The proper way to prepare 1t is to
cut the pineapple into slices, sprinkle
them with sugar and press them in !
glass vessel. which should be tightly
closed.
Catarrh Is so general in this country
in one form or another that 1t is re.

ENLISTED TOO YOUNG.
Clay County Boy Found He Did Not
Like the Navy.

A few weeks ago a young son Of
Charles r. Hannaford fell victim to
the wiles of recruiting officers for
Uncle Sans navy, an act on the part
of the young man which was very dis
tasteful to his father who was more
than surprised at his action, in fact
entered a vigorous protest on the
ground that his son was under age,
not Is years. required by the navy de-
partment. The matter was placed in
the hands of Senator Marden, who In
turn opened correspondence with
United States Senator Nelson at Wash
ington. Senator Marden has received
formal notice to the effect that the
enlistment has been cancelled on the
ground OF under age, and the young
man will be sent home. Immediately
after the formal orders have been re-
ceived by the commanding officer at
Charleston barracks where young
Hannaford now is. 1t is stated that
the young man himself was not averse
to getting free as he soon found out
that he was not cut out for learning
how to become the commander of a
battleship.

Secretary Slime Of the commercial
club is urging that everybody who can
make the effort to go to ST. Paul on

all who will go so that the delegation
will make as good showing as pos
sible.
Il trust every business man in the
city of Fargo who finds he can. will
avail himself Of this opportunity to
help advertise the city, said Mr.. Slime
to q Forum representative today.
Numbers will count lot on that day
and the people who are attending the
show will largely guage the spirit and
enterprise OF the people of this city by
the number we have in our delegation
attending the show on North Dakota
day. Those things count for a great
deal more than people generally think.
For that reason alone I trust the
Fargoans who really can spare the

ming to go. They will not only have
a good time, by being in congenial
company, but their presence will ma
teriaIly help our cause

MEREDITH FIRE
OFFSET PREMIUMS
ENTIRE AMOUNT or PREMIUMS
FOR FIRE INSURANCE POLICIES
IN CITY OF FARGO WIPED OUT
IN THE BIG CONFEDERATION
OF LAST WEEK.

1t was stated today in local insur-
ance circles that the total amount OF
premium receipts for the city of Far
so during the last year were complete
~ Offset by the great confiagration
which destroyed the Meredith Drug
Co. building and did other damage on
n. p. avenue last week.
The premium receipts for the city
of Fargo during the last year amount
ed to $17o.sO3.45. The total loss of the
Meredith fire is almost IL not quite
$780, 900.
1t is clearly seen from this that the
fire insurance companies doing BUSH
ness in Fargo have made less than
nothing In this city during the last
year besides carrying large liabilities.
Throughout the United States the
losses caused by fire were larger in
1911 than in 1910 and for the month
of November this year alone, the loss
es in this country and Canada amount
ed to $1s,6S0.000. The losses for the
corresponding month Of 1910 totaled
SIC, 407. 900 and the year before that
they were 100000, according TO the
statistics given in a recent issue OF The
Journal of Commerce OF New York,
which is regarded as the authoritative
publication on such matters
The losses for the entire year in the
United States this year since Jan. /
amount to $211,614,000. This vast
amount of loss is attributed to i'm
fiammable construction and bad wir-
ing. Fire prevention bureaus are be-
ing established all over the country
to prevent the propaganda OF such
generally poor construction in the pub
lie buildings and to stop poor wiring.
lis Is an interesting Bit Of history
said a prominent insurance man to a
Forum representative today, ito recol-
lect the visit Of a representative Of
the national board of underwriters to
this city in 1892. He didn't come here
on any official trip of inspection. but
was merely passing through Fargo and
stopped off to see the town. At that
time he predicted to me that Fargo
was going to have devastating con-
fdagration some day, and sure enough.
within year. we had fire here that
swept the whole city, and. was as
great disaster for town OF this
size as the Chicago fire was for the
windy city"
