The Advice Of This Bemidji Woman

Many a woman's back has many
aches and pains.

That's why Doan's Kidney Pills are
so effective.
Many Bemidji women know this.

Mrs. A. E. Hannah, 704 Misstssip-
pi avenue, Bemidji, Minn., says:
"Some time ago began to use Doan's
Kidney Pills and the results were sat-
isfactory. At that time I was suffer-
ing severely from backache and my
kidneys were not doing their work as
they should. A friend advised me to
take Doan's Kidney Pills and I got
some. They restored me to excellent
health" Statement given October
7. 1910. -.

Keep the Dollar at Home.

The dollar that is spent at home is
used in building up Bemidji and Min
nesota. The dollar that is sent away
is lost to us. It goes to help build
up some other fellows city and state.
We bring money to our city and
state by selling something to the out
slider. We accumulate by buying less
from the outsider that he spends with
Every dollar that we spend with
the outsider that could have been
spent at home takes just SO much
away from US. We are poorer by as
much as the outsider has gained. He
has taken from us to build up his
city and state.
We must have this money kept at
home. We need its advantages. 1t
will help make us Independent. No
single class of citizens is alone to
blame for money being sent away
from home. The retailer blames the
consumer and manufacturer. The
wholesaler blames the manufacturer
and the retailer. Its serious ques-
tion. We are all to blame. Let's

International Falls, June 20 and
21. These are the place and dates.
The Northern Minnesota Develop
ment association is the occasion. Put
the three together and begin to pull
to make this the biggest and most
valuable meeting yet held by this as
sociation.
Northern Minnesota now knows
how much it is gaining because Of
this organization and these meetings.
These have been the start of the
present settlement in this section of
the state 1t was through them that
attention was turned in this direc-
ton.
The meetings have been followed
by mass Of free advertising; the Or
ganization, as the first of it's kind, be-
came of interest in many states. 9th
er sections of Minnesota have adopt
ed it's plan as the best means for
"boosting"
It has demonstrated that Northern
Minnesota is interested in it's own
affairs; believes in itself; has the en-
thusiasm of conviction, and that it is
awake and hustling. That is the
sort of country to which wide awake
men wish to come
The attention of the railroads has
been gained These most important
agencies of settlement are now CIV
ing Northern Minnesota the help it
deserves. They are giving this near
by territory square deal, and as a
result of their efforts, combined with
those of this association, the influx of
settlers is the greatest ever known
here
This movement must be kept up;
this indeed is the critical time, and
the International Falls meeting
should be the biggest one of them ALL

TRANSIT COMPANY
FILES BRIEF TO
TEST JURISDICTION
Supreme Court to Decide
Whether or Not Concern
4 Is Comrson Carrier.

Attorneys for the Chicago Stockyards
and Transit Company havo filed briefs
with the clerk OF the Supreme Court
OF the United States In support of thei-
contention that the stockyards are not
common carriers within the jurisdiction
of the Interstate Commerce Commits
sicn.
The test OF jurisdiction arises from an
attempt of the commission to invalidat e
contribution of $4,000 made by the
stockyards company to Packer & Sons,
packers. This money was to be used
In erecting part Of a new packing
plant on the transportation lines Of the
stockyards company. The commission
attacked the payment as a rebate and.
therefore. unlawful.
when the railroads took the case be-
fore the Commerce Court that tribunal
found In favor OF the railroads, denying
that the interstate'commerce laws gave
the commission Jurisdiction of the
stockyards property.
The attitude of the Supreme Court of
the United States in this case will be
watched with much interest by many
States which, In recent years, have de-
elared. by statute, that stockyards and
stockyard transportation property es-
pecially. are common carriers, and.
therefore. subject to the orders Of a
railway commission.
The admission that the -commission
has jurisdiction over stockyards in
wolves much more than appears on the
face. Much stockyard profit comes
from feeding cattle. The commission
acquires regulatory power over this.
Other proft comes from switching cars
between the several packing houses.
Discrimination Is frequently practiced
and with profit. The commission would
be in position to put an end to this.
Through the Acknowledgement of
selves open to physical valuation, to
rate regulation. and to probes into their
ordinarily. excessive. capitalizations.
These are some of the reasons. other

The Heather in His Blindness.

An Indian went hunting one day for
deer. After tramping through the
woods for some hours he came across
a herd and managed to kill one. He
shouldered it and started for market,
which was some five miles away.
Now of course, the longer he walked
the heavier the deer got, and by the
time he reached the deer market he
was about all in. He hung the deer
on the scales and stood looking at it
with wonder. Finally he said to tho
man: ugh! Let him hang awhile" =
