Easy to Get Relief
From INDIGESTION

Your stomach should digest the food
you eat, without the aid Of any arti-
fetal digestives. If it won't do that
then you are continually subject to
dyspepsia, indigestion, heartburn, head
aches and constipation.
Instead Of taking digestive medi-
cine, take steps to get your stomach
and intestines again in healthy,
natural condition. Jayne's Tonic Yer
mifuge will do this for you will take
it regularly. It is not a digester of
foods, but it will restore your stomach
and intestires so that they will attend
to their natural functions, digesting
what you eat and giving strength to
the body.
For more than eighty years thou
sands of men and women who had SUI
fered the pains caused by dyspepsia
and indigestion have been praising
this Tonic as the only remedy which
brought them permanent relief. AS
the Tonic acts directly upon the
stomach ond intestines, it is a natural
appetizer and strength builder.
Many forms of supposed indigestion
are the result Of intestinal parasites,
for which Jayne's Tonic Vermifuge
is unsurpassed. Insist upon Jayne's;
accept no other. Sold by druggists
everywhere. DR.. D. Jayne & Son,

Tells OF EsiK|M0S|
Head Of Government Schools
Gives Interesting Data.
Went to Alaska In 1seo-Descrlbes
Experiences In Dealing With Sup
posedIy Savage Tribes, Who
Now Raise Reindeer.

Washington.-A few days ago q
short. stocky man with quiet man.
ner, skin Drowned by much outdoor
life. and the steady eye of one used
to looking across great distances,
came to Washington with such small
fuss that 1t was more than q week
before the reporters were aware of
his presence at all. He is w. T. Lopp,
head of the governments school sys.
tenn for Eskimos. and man who has
spent most Of his life since 1890 in
Alaska, seldom coming out" as he
calls trip down to the states.
Lopp was Hoosier schoolmaster,
boy juts out of college, when the
government sent him and another
young man up to Cape Prince Of
Wales on Boring Strait to start an
Eskimo school. He expected to Te.
main only two years.
When he went up he and his part
Ger were the only white men living In
all of northern Alaska. They went
alone into district where the natives
were SO dreaded that whalers would
not put into port, even for haven in
q storm.
1--WE had some trouble with them at
first, but we insisted on having our
way. When they saw we were abso.
lutely just and fair with them, their
attitude changed.
"That first winter we learned that
the Eskimos wanted to own reindeer.
but that the revenue officers would
not permit the importation. Some of
the natives even owned reindeer in
the Siberian herds across the straits.
And 1t seemed shame that they
were forbidden to bring their property
across from Asia, SO near that the
Siberian heights could be seen over
the water on clear days.
I'VE appealed to Washington for
permission to import reindeer. But
other government agents had preceded
us in this request. Before we had
reply from our letter that summer a
revenue cutter put into port with
shipment of reindeer on board. We
were overjoyed to know that the pro-
hibition Of the law had been removed
and set about getting more.
I'm 1892 came the first large i'm
portation. We brought in 1900 that
year and from these grew the present
herd. scattered throughout Alaska and
numbering over $4,000.
"The reindeer policy was gradually
evolved. We impress upon the Laps
and Eskimos that the reindeer are ex-
clusively their property and care. For
instance, they are not allowed to sell
female reindeer to white men, SO that
the brood animals are to he perpetu-
ally in the custody and ownership of
the natives.
"The herders are free to breed their
animals and sell their calves or stock
of any age or sex to the other natives1
Reindeer are food, clothing and
transportation to the natives"

save THEIR WAGES
Thrifty convicts Of Minnesota
Prison boarding Earnings.
Some Of tho Long Term Prisoners at
saltwater Have Balances Rang
Ing From $1,000 to $500
to Their Credit.

St. Paul, Minn.-While the capital.
lists Of the country have patronizingly
advised young persons to save their
pennies and be rich some day." the
prisoners at Saltwater penitentiary
have been hiding their time, boarding
their small earnings until many Of
them have sums ranging from $1,000
to $1,000 to their individual credit, ac-
cording to the report of visit to the
Institution made by j. r. Swami, .
member, and J. C. Matchitt, secretary
Of the state board of visitors. The re-
port was submitted to Governor Eber
hart.
The report does not say how long
these particular prisoners have been
confined in the penitentiary, but some
light is thrown on their saving ability
by the following paragraph from tho
report:
I'm December, 1911, the Sc men
employed in the farm machinery divi-
sion received an average pay Of SASS
. man; the 205 men in the shoe factory
received an average for the month Of
$4.03 man; the ia men In the sup
port division Cooks. walters, BARRIERS.
etc. received an average Of $4.63
each"
Taking up the suggestion of Govern
or Eberhart that some means be pro
vided for state aid to families left in
need by prisoners committed to work
houses and the state prison, the re-
port, referring only to the latter, says
that "but five per cent. Of the men
in state prison have families they
have left in need of state aid"
This is because the prisoners as
whole are men Of rowing characters,
who have no settled home and who,
accordingly, have no one dependent
upon them.
"In this connection" the report con.
tnues, "a law enacted in 1909 is of
special interest. It provides for state
aid for dependent families Of men in
the state prison. Families are now be-
ing paid as high as SIS month under
this humane 1909 law"
Commenting on the recently estab'
lished prison for the criminal insane
at St. Peter, the report Gays there are
ten prisoners at Saltwater SO ad.
vanced in insanity they are unable to
do work. while there are thirty others
who are able to work part Of the time.
Then it adds:
ut is doubtless true that there are q
sufficient number of criminal insane
at Saltwater and other state institu.
tons to fill completely another such
building as now houses this class OF
unfortunates at st. Peter"
Conditions, from q sanitary and
clearly standpoint, are excellent at
the institution, the report says. add.
Ing:
I'm spite Of tho fact that the build
ings and general plant are old and out
Of date, the best is made of every dis
advantage fact that has given War
den Wolfer for many years the repu'
tAtion Of being unexcelled."

FRENCH MEN THOUGHT 1T JOKE
Ambassador Jusserand's Request for
an Outdoor Sleeping Porch Not
Taken Seriously at Home.

The French government has obtain.
ed permit. blueprints and full speci.
fications for fine new embassy build
Ing here in Washington. AS French
architects rank among the best in the
world, the building will probably be
an attractive structure, with hard
wood floors, modern plumbing. glass
doorknobs and decorated to suit.
But J. ]. Jusserand, the French am.
bassador, isn't certain whether tho
place is going to be anything much
or not. In some respects the houses
that are shown in the daily papers suit
him much better, and he has made
bold to tell the French government
SO.
Inasmuch as Jusserand Is going to
live in the place. his government as
sumed, quite logically, that he and his
wife would have some little curiosity
to see the plans and note the loca-
tons of closets and bathrooms. SO
they sent him blueprints showing the
front, side and rear elevations and the
interior arrangements.
Jusserand promptly wrote back to
his government saying he wished.
while they were about it, that they
would build house with a few Of tho
more modern conveniences. For ex-
ample, he pointed out no American
thinks of building a house nowadays
without an outdoor sleeping porch and
also cute little screened porch
where they could serve afternoon tea.
Jusserands letter caused much con.
sternation in his native land. The
French officials couldn't figure out
why few years residence in Amer
lea should give high born citizen so
many barbarous notions about archi.
lecture. After several weeks they an.
swered his sleeping porch communica.
ton and told him they enjoyed his lit.
tie joke.
"Of course. you cannot be serious"
they said, "in wishing to sleep public
ly. The outdoor porch might be very
nice for an American hunting cabin
with its picturesque log finish, but for
an embassy building located in the
heart of city. any arrangement for
one to sleep out on the porch would
no doubt excite much funny comment.
Furthermore, we do not know of any
recognized school of architecture that
provides for special porch to sleep
on
Jusserand threw up his hands with
a despairing gesture on receipt Of the
letter, asked for one more window in
the front bedroom, and let 1t 60 at
that.

JOHN sCHMoLKE WRITES


John Schmolke of Buckman met with
an accident to his foot recently, while
jumping from car and was confined
to his home. While taking an enforced
vacation John took time to write the
Herald on various topics.
To start with he was pleased at the
democratic victory throughout the aa-
ti0n.
Mr.. Schmolke,' however, never for.
gets to boost Morrison county land. In
fact, he refers to our land, especially
around Buckman and the eastern part
of the county as "gold field" which
surpasses the .Klondike.
He says Mr.. Householder Of Buck
man, section l, threshed eight bushels
Of fine clover from one acre, and from
the first cut Of May got $40. This, with
his clover, brought 800 per acre.
Mr.. Kapsner was very successful
with beets, some weighing as much as
20 pounds.
Mr.. Heurung raised squash weigh
ing 159 pounds which Mr.. Schmolke
sent to the Minneapolis exposition.
He also states that oats and barley
went as high as 100 and lis bushels
per acre.
The farmers are getting good prices
for cattle and hogs, and with land that
can be purchased at from SIS to $25
per acre, it should not long be left
vacant.

Wilson Says Congress will Con-
vene About April Is.
TARIFF LEGISLATION FIRST
President Elect Declares Pledges OF
tho Party Ought to Be Redeemed
as Promptly az Possible.

New York, Nov. Ex-Governor
Woodrow Wilson announced that i'm
mediately after his Inauguration as
president of the United States he
would call an extraordinary session
Of congress to convene not later than
April is for 49,: purpose of revising
the tariff.
The president elect will sail for
Bermuda this afternoon for vacation
and will return on Dec. 16. To set at
rest in the meantime speculation as
to what he would do with regard to
tariff revision he issued the following
statement:
II shall call congress together in ex-
traordinary session not later than
April Is. l shall do this not only be-
cause think that the pledges of the
party ought to be redeemed as prompt
ly as possible, but also because
know it to be in the interest of busi-
ness that all uncertainty as to what
the particular items of tariff revision
are to be should be removed as soon
as possible"
Beyond this brief announcement the
governor said he had nothing further
10 say. Most of the opinions he had
received from public men seemed to
be in favor of an extra session, he
said.
Hastened His Announcement.
The governor did not intend to ex-
press himself about an extra session
50 soon after his election. Although
le has favored the idea of an extra
session because the present arrange
tnent would mot bring the new con-
5ress into session until thirteen
months, after it's election he had ex-
eacted to spend more time in ascer-
:aining public opinion.
With the time to be consumed In
discussion the governor felt that II
an extra session were. not called the
benefits of tariff revision would be
postponed for practically two years.
81, Throughout the campaign he reiter-
ated that he desired an immediate re-
vision of the tariff and that Demo
|cratic leaders knew perfectly well
how to proceed about it.
The governor was impressed by the
argument also that with an early an
nouncement as to an extra session
Democratic leaders in congress could
begin to take counsel at an early
date so that much of the preliminary
detail could be worked out before con-
gress convened on April Is.

st. Peter Free Press (rep): Democrats
are getting ready for ratification

victory. That it will be an elaborate
affair. goes without saying. And who
would begrudge them the opportunity
They have won hard fought battle
and are entitled to the fruits Of their
efforts. But with victory comes also
responsibility, and this is more realiz-
ed by the president-elect than by his
more or less enthusiastic supporters.
Governor Wilson is not only man
of great capacity, but also a man Of
principles. While he appreciates the
honor Of being elevated to the presi-
dency, the people can rest assured that
his first aim will be to give them a
first class administration, notwith.
standing the many handicaps, with
which he is likely to be confronted.
The result Of the election has clearly
shown that the voters have confidence
in him and on the other hand Mr.. vii.

assumption that they will not be dis.
