HOME HEALTH CLUB

An Emergency Case: Since this is
an age Of automobiles, rapid transit,
and outdoor sports, the Emergency
Case properly equipped is neces-
sity.
Possessed of an Emergency Case,
containing the articles suggested
herein, and good common-sense, COM
bined with knowledge Of how to
give the Home Health Club treat
ments, you wall be able to render first
aid to the injured, or to one suddenly
stricken with some acute disorder,
when the opportunity prese IT'S. itself,
thus relieving a fellow-being from
pain or, perhaps, saving life, which
act will always be source of self
satisfaction, and that sort of self
satisfaction is nothing more or less
than proper reward for a kind act,
and is in no way reprehensible, but
quite the contrary. Besides in own
ing and using such case you will be
acquiring useful information, almost
.imperceptibly.
This case is merely for personal
use or home use. More elaborate and
extensive one may be devised for
schools, camps, factories, ships,
mines, etc. It is better to prepare
such an important thing before you
will have need for it. The sense of
providence will indorse that. It is,
Of course more necessary that such a
case should be on hand where one is
not in touch with a drug store. It
is handy on an outing and is sort

i LETTER FROM
SENATOR Garfield
A Letter Bearing on Record of For
mer Senator Thorpe, Published
by Request.

a Letter bear1ng on RECORD OF For
mer Senator Thorpe, Published
by Request.
Luverne, MINI, Aug. 10, 1912.
Hon. L. 0. Thorpe,
Willmar, MINI.
Dear Senator:
Ny attention has been called to a
criticism of your record as State
Senator, specifically with reference
to your vote in favor Of Senate File
No. 1852.
I introduced that bill during the
session Of 1909. From the first it's
provisions were persistently misrep-
resented. Your critic is probably one
of those who was misled by the mis-
representations.
The purpose Of the bill was to COR
rect some Of the defects in the pri-
mary law, and, at the same time, pre-
vent the abuses Of the old conven-
ton and caucus system. It was not
an attempt to return to the old "dis-
credited convention SYSTEM" altho
| it provided for conventions.
The writer then believed, and still
believes, that the primary law is de-
fective in that it does not give the
people the right to name candidates
for Office, OF, more correctly, it re-
stricts the peoples right to select
candidates. They have no voice ex-
cept to make a choice between self
seekers for office. In other words,
should two horse thieves file for
treasurer Of Kandiyohi county, and
no one else, the voter must vote for
a horse thief. The voter should have
some means Of selecting a suitable
man for candidate. The voters OF
a party should have the right to &C
after a candidate, instead Of sending
self appointed candidates after the
voters. The law puts the cart be.
fore the horse.
! I am a firm believer in the prin.
ciples of primary elections, but al
schemes thus far tried are mere ex.
periments. Nearly every one admit:
the defects. The people who desire
to perfect the primary are the rea
progressives, while those who Oppose
it are the real reactionaries. The,
are the ones who use the word "pri
nary as a sort Of shibboleth to tes
a mans principles.
| Many senators whose progressiv
ism | have never heard questioned
voted for the bill. Probably some re-
dictionaries voted for it. A humble
in both classes voted against it. Sew
eral progressive members have sine
told me that they are sorry they die
not vote for it; and others told M
they thought the bill was right, bu
! that, for certain reasons, they coult
not vote for it.
| | always regarded you as one O.
the reliable progressive senators
| While we sometimes differed in opin
ions, | know you were a hard work
ing member who tried to faithful,
represent the people Of your distric
and state.
Yours very truly,

SAYS TEN YEAR RETROGRES
SION THREATENED.

"The total payments from the rev.
enue fund for 1902, ten years ago,
was only $3,940,408.87. These pay
ments have increased to $8,276,532.-
81 in 1912. If Mr.. Lee wishes to
submit to the voters Of this state the
question as to whether there shall be
a ten-year retrogression in the state,
he should state specifically what de-
partments, activities, or institutions,
established during the last ten years,
he would abolish. That they cannot
be maintained without revenue is
self evident. The following have all
been established within that period !:
The tax commission, the bureau Of
immigration, the state highway COM
mission, the state fire marshal, the
superintendent Of banks, the live
stock sanitary board, the oil inspec-
ton department., the new capitol
maintenance, the sanitorium for con-
sumptives, the hospital for crippled
and deformed children, the industrial
school for girls at Sank Center, the
| agricultural school at Morris, the
university campus extension, the In
dian war pensions, the state art So
ciety, the board of visitors, for state
institutions, the state hospital for in
ebriates, the additional land for the
new capitol, the weights and meas
ures department and the hotel in
spector. The establishment and
maintenance Of these departments
aggregate large sums Of money an
nually. In order to reduce the ex-
penses Of the state to what they
were ten years ago, it would be ne
cessary not only to abolish those de-
Dartments but also to reduce the
scope Of every other department, es-
pecially the dairy and food commits
sion, the game and fish commission,
the railroad and warehouse commits
sion, the bureau Of labor, and the de-
partment Of education, the activities
Of which have been extended largely
during the last ten years.
"The cost Of the executive depart
ment has increased from. $12,28743
in 1902 to $19,O55.35 in 1912, which
surely cannot be considered extrava-
CANT. This does not include the con-
tingent fund Of the governor, which
was intended, and has always been
used, for such purposes as it is used
today.
SCHOOL MONEY PAYMENTS.
'Under the present system Of col
lecting and disbursing funds in this
state, Mr.. Lee will find the greatest
increase Of Fexpense.' If this system
shall be abolished, as it necessarily
must to reduce state expenditures,
then the people must know what the
results will be. Hennepin, Ramsey
and St. Louis counties paid into the
state treasury during the fiscal year
ending July 81, 1912, the sum Of 3d.
140, $3.50, in return for which the
state returned to these counties as
school aid the sum Of $656,050.81,
leaving a balance in favor Of the
state Of 81, 484,521.79. All other
counties Of the State received from
the state much larger sums for
school aid than those contributed to
the state in all forms of taxes. Otter
Tail county, as an example, paid to
the state this year the sum Of $780,
378.15, and received in return as

out for it, and following the demand
the sufferer ate large quantities of
it. The trouble all arose, he said, from
the fact that the salt eaten was not
presented in a form that was accep-
table to the system or that could be
taken up and assimilated by the It's
sues. He stated further that the salt
must be applied in the proper man
ner and cure would surely follow.
The writer himself at that time
being a sufferer from hay fever, saw
the point and procured an attenuat-
ed preparation Of Sodium Chloride
and took small doses four times
daily. The result was most agree
able surprise for after few days.
treatment the hay fever was gone.
We do not wish to be understood
as saying that all cases Of hay fever
are met with in those who use salt
freely, for that would not be true,
but the attenuated doses of Sodium
Chloride in sugar of milk can be
safely depended upon where indicat-

Dear Doctor:
| Our little boy twenty one months
old is a large, heavy child and his
ankles turn in quite noticeably, sc
much so that his shoes are run over
on the inner side. He did not wall
until Is months old, but now wants
to be out of-doors walking nearly ali
day. Will he outgrow it? What
would you advise?
| | am glad to see that you recognize
he condition as being an abnormal
one, and are starting early to cor
'ect it. There are very few deform.
tiles Of children which cannot b.
corrected if taken in time. There arr
few deformities that a child will en-.
tlrely outgrow. The old idea that g
child it let alone, will outgrow de-
formities, is responsible for many
crippled and deformed adults. Daily
on the streets, in the country, coun-
try towns and everywhere one sees
evidence Of neglect, carelessness, OF
ignorance whichever it may be, or
the part Of those responsible. Many
a poor cripple could have been giver

!, 1t is evident that your little boy
has not been getting food which con-
tains sufficient quantity of bone
forming material. Let him play out
of-doors all he likes, he will thus
naturally reduce his own weight and
increase the strength Of his ankles
Feed him whole cereals, that is, those
containing the whole grain, with

him plenty Of fresh milk to drink

Good Words for Vermont.

One of the surprises of the year 10
our Touring Information Bureau has
been the number of calls for routings
in the Green Mountain State. More
parties than ever before have gone
up through the Lake George-Lake
Champlain country, crossing by boat
from Port Kent or Plattsburg to Bur
lington. thence via either Montpelier
or Newport to St Johnsbury, where
both routes combine into one thor
oughfare toward the White Noun
tains and Maine. These are not
only natural and logical routes, but
they combine parts of the best roads
and the most interesting scenery OF
eastern New York State and northern
New England
Lately also, more tourists have TAX

Burlington to St Johnsbury via Es-
sex Center Cambridge and Johnson

hremagog; and then down from New
port TO st. Johnsbury via the east
side of Willoughby Lake. This region
ranks with the Rangely and Moose
head districts OF Maine. Out OF a
considerable number of comments
made on this trip we quote the follow
ing from a letter sent by a member
of the Automobile Club of Pitts

Vermont foresaw this almost immedi-
ate result when he accepted the pro

its many fine routes become more

ALL ABOUT TAE PHILOSOPHER
Short Essay Evidently Written by One
Familiar With This Species Of
Animal.

A philosopher is man. and rarely
: woman, who. having nothing to do
and being glad Of 1t, puts in his time
explaining the reason that other peo-
pie should have for doing things.
Philosophers are mot popular be-
cause, In the first place. most men are
too busy to listen to them, and. in
the second place, they are satisfied
with their own reasons for doing
things
Nevertheless, philosophers are wont
to gravitate toward comfortable stoves
in corner groceries, where men of
varying leisures straggle in and to-
wards comfortable chairs in UNIVERSE
ties where helpless youth are COM
PEELED to listen as part of an awful
punishment called curriculum.
Whenever philosopher becomes IA
nous, 1t always turns out that he Is
not q philosopher at all, but scien-
tist Simon pure philosophers never
give Information. because nothing less
than explaining the unknowable viii
satisfy them. One philosopher will
never agree with another philosopher

the megapodes seem to have taken

means of his "egg-teeth'' he cuts the

finds himself In q warm, reeking bed
