When ! Dog chokes.

Dogs frequently choke. A bone, a
nail or piece Of tin gets in the
throat, and there is great danger Of
death before the arrival Of the surgeon.
Many Of them do die, but there is no
reason for this. for it is easy, without
the slightest danger of getting bitten,
to put the hand in the mouth of q dog
and to draw out or push down the OBJ
struction that is choking it. A bandage
"a handkerchief or towel will do-is
passed between the teeth and over the
upper jaw, and in a similar way anoth-
er bandage is passed between the teeth
and over the under jaw. One person,
holding the ends Of these two band
ages, keeps the dogs mouth wide open.
A second person can then with perfect
ease and safety put his fingers down
the animals throat and relieve it.

Coming In Out Of the Wet.

There is an amusing story by Athe-
naeus which suggests the possible orr
gin Of the phrase HE does not know
enough to come In. out Of the wet" Ac-
cording to the entertaining grammarian
referred to, town in Greece under
stress Of evil circumstances borrowed
money from a rich man. who took as
security for the loan mortgage on the
handsome portico which surrounded
the market place. He was not an un-
generous creditor, for when it rained
he caused the town criers to announce
that the citizens had permission to
take refuge under the colonnade.
Strangers visiting the town who fall
ed to have the matter properly explain
ed to them were so impressed by tho
extraordinary circumstances that they
spread abroad the report that the peo-
pie were SO stupid that they had to be
told when to come in out of the wet.

Work has been started on Be-:
midji's new First Methodist church
building, Ninth and Beltranni.
Because of his experience in build
ing church in Fergus Falls, Rev.
Charles Flesher, pastor. was asked to
undertake the work of building the.
| new edifice.
| Plans and specifications were made
by Bert Keck of Crookston. D. S.
Wittenmore of Detroit was given a
contract for the construction and the
foundation walls were completed to
the water table and the rough floor,
laid last fall The building is to be
of brick with concrete foundation
and when completed will be thor
oughly modern and an ornament to
the city.
The building is of pleasing archi-
tectural design of library style and
for beauty, economy and convenience
will be difficult to surpass.
The present membership of the
Methodist church is 100 and this
with large Sunday school crowding
the present building, the Masonic
temple, together with good Ep-
worth League, and a prosperous
Ladies' Aid Society, makes this new
building necessary.

| site.
About the first of June, 1898, Rev.
A. E. Rawson was appointed pastor
and began his work by open air
preaching near the present boat
landing. The court house was used
for a while after which the Wood
man hall was secured until the new
church was ready for services.
In October, 1898, Rev. George P.
Watson, now editor of the Interna-
tional Falls Press, was appointed TO
the. charge and on Sunday, December
4, the church was organized and

GAMBLING AT FAIRS TO STOP.

County fairs that permit gambling
games, wheels of fortune and other
schemes, of chance will run big
risk of losing the thousand dollars
which Pennsylvania appropriates to
such expositions. Auditor General
A. e. Sisson, whose duty it is to is
sue the warrants giving the State
bounty to county fairs and agricul-
tural eXpositions, has been looking
into the matter and it is understood
that a number of the fairs that have
been held lately have been visited
by agents of the State.
When General Sisson took office
one of the first things he had to take
up was the complaint that gambling
had been permitted at some fairs and
during the winter hearing was held
by the General on the charges pre-
ferred against the Chester County
Fair association officers that they
had permitted some games. This
case, together with others, is pend
ing, but it is believed that it will
soon be decided.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED
by local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
deafness, and that is by constitu-
tional remedies. Deafness is caus-
ed by an inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is infiamed
you have a rumbling sound or i'm
perfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out
of ten are caused by Catarrh, which
is nothing but an inflamed condition
OF the mucous surfaces.
