Druggist, Judge Of Probate and Under.
taker ut international Falls.

In the Friday morning issue of the
Minneapolis Tribune that paper has
the following to say concerning
Doc" Iltis, of International Falls,
who is we'll known in Bemidji:
Doc" R. F. C. Iltis, Judge of the
probate court of Koochi b n e
county, proprietor of the leading
drug store at International Falls,
and dealer in tombstones and
epitaphs, is spending few days at
the Hotel Rogers laying in a stock
of legal decisions, dope and marble
slabs. ..:.. .
1 am sorry I got here too late to
attend the undertakers' convention
and school of instruction." said he,
as I think that line of work would
fit in we'll with drugs, probating of
wills and selling tombstones.
-.
That would fill the only gap in the
cycle. - .-
mo, I'm not a. doctor of medi.
cine even though I have the title,
but | don't need to be an M. D.,
because 1 have one who Offices in
my building and he turns over all
his business to me-"
Doc" Iltis received that handle
to his name from his invention
of remarkable concoction known
as 40 H. p" which has become
Immensely; popular in the water
power city. 1t does great service
on election days. 1t derives its
name from the amount of extra steam
It generates when properly intro.
duced into the human system.

WILL HAVE MONSTER PARADE
Will Be Feature of Mankato Sunday
: School Convention. ,.,-- e.

One of the great features of the
Minnesota Sunday School Couven-
ton to be held in Mankato, March
1910, will be mems Bible Class
Demonstration in the form of
monster parade on the last night of
the convention. A committee of
Mankato's strongest business men
has the arrangements in hand. A
Twin City Bible Class Special Train
will carry 500 Bible Class men to
the convention on Friday, March
10th, leaving Minneapolis at II

a. NJ. and arriving in Mankalo at
las or 200 o'clock p. m.
Each of the organized classes in
Minnesota is requested to send a
representative at least. Mankato
alone is planning to have 500 men
in line, and it is expected that
$500 men will march in the parade,
thus exhibiting the virility of Sum-
day School work and emphasizing
the Importance of Bible study.
The Mankato Band will lead the
procession and is expected that many
other bands will lead delegates
from other cities. This is only one
eature of the great three days con-
vention in which four noted special.
lists from outside the State and many
great leaders in Sunday school work
in our own State are engaged as
speakers and instructors. A great
Bazaar and Sunday School Exhibit
will be opened for the study of all.
Every Sunday school in Minnesota
is requested to send delegates who
will report the convention at an
echo meeting on their return from
the convention. Minnesota has
more than 1000 Sunday schools with
more than 100000 enrolment. The

commentator.

Washington, Feb 20.-The finance
committee of the senate was called to-.
gether to consider the Mccall bill to
supply the legislative machinery re-
quired to put into effect the reciprocal
trade agreement with Canada. Three
or four days probably will be con-
sumed by the committee in reaching a
decision as to the manner of reporting
the bill, but even it's most obdurate
opponents are unwilling to bear the re-.
sponsibility of any longer delay than
that
1t was decided to limit hearings to
two days Practically all of the re-
quests for hearings came from agricul-
tural interests.
Whether there are votes in the COM
mittee to report the bill favorably
could not be learned at the outset of
the meeting. AS a matter of fact the
members of the committee feel that it
is immaterial how the bill is reported,
whether fayora bly,, adversely or with
out recommendation.
The indications are that the latter
method will be employed in the inter-
est of the early transfer of the fight
to the floor of the senate, in accord
ance with promises that have been
made to President Taft

If Senator Burrows, acting chairman
in the absence of Senator Aldrich, is
guided by the action of the Michigan

Flint, though opposed to the agree.
