Followers of tho Art Have Been
Known to Expiate Their "Crlmes"
on the Galiows.

On the 18th Of July, 1860, Martib
Lhomme, one of two who were hanged
in the Place Maubert by the decree
of the parliament, suffered because he
had published a writing entitled
"Epistre envoyee au tigre de Ia
France "a letter directed against the
Tiger of Franco, a. satire, directed
against the cardinal of Lorraine, then
all powerful, which had probably been
imprinted at Basic in Switzerland, or
Strasburg, Germany. The culprit, &C.
cording to the historian De Thou, was
poor little bookseller, a native OF
Rouen. While he was waiting at the
gibbet, says Charles Winslow Hall in
the National Magazine, one of his fel.
low countrymen, coming into Paris on
business, saw him on his way and
recognized him. "Then,'' says Regnier
de la Planche, mot knowing why he
was condemned to death, he alighted
from his horse at a neighboring hos
telry, and, seeing the people very
angry against tho unfortunate man,
cried to them, "Eh, what, my friends,
is it not enough that he dies? Leave
him to the executioner. Would you
like to torment him more than his sen.
tence: demands? They considered the
Norman's pity misplaced. He was
forthwith arrested, Judged and hanged
four days later without any form OF
process in the same fatal Place Mau
hert." = ~~' - = 81

After Wiley, What?

While he was the chief of the
chemistry bureau, DR.. Harvey Wiley
fought INCREASINGLY for pure food. He
succeeded and thereby brought down
on his head the wrath and enmity
OF the interests. Tired of the strife
and the lack of support from his SUI
periors, he has resigned. Whether
or not the people will still be safe
guarded becomes question of who
is to be his successor. Secretary Will
son has not been too friendly to the
Wiley campaign. Will he support
another man where he did not sup
port Wiley? Many people are of the
opinion that Wilson has served in the
cabinet too long and would like to
see some other man at the head of
that department.

The Hallowell y Concerts.

1t is not often that Bemidji people
have an opportunity to hear concerts
such as were given In local theater
Saturday and Sunday. In fact, there
is but one instrumentalist in the city
that excels any of the ,Hallowell play
ers-Mrs. Sanborn. The numbers
chosen ranged from the popular to
the classic and both were effectively
rendered. The singing of Mr.. Ha-
berkorn was a delight to those that
heard him and he proved his right to
the diamond medal he wore. The
troupe was really worth better
housing and facilities than were at
their command but the players proved
themselves true artists by giving per-
feet productions in spite Of the ad-
verse conditions. The music was

port more of it.

THE FIRST GRAY
HAIR sign OF AGE!:
Easy Way to Preserve Natural Color
Of the Hair and Make It Grow.

j A harmless remedy, made from
common garden sage, quickly restores
gray hair to natural color. The care
of the hair, to prevent it from losing
its color and lustre, is just as i'm
portant as to care for teeth to keep
them from discoloring. Why spend
money for cosmetics and creams to
improve the complexion, and yet neg
lect your hair, when gray hair is
even more conspicuous and sugges-
tive Of age than wrinkles or a poor
complexion? OF the two, it is easier
to preserve the natural color and
beauty of the hair than it is to have
a good complexion.
All that is necessary is the occa-
sional use of Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Hair Remedy, a preparation OF
common garden Sage and Sulphur,
combined with other valuable RENE
dies for dry, harsh, faded hair. After
a few applications of this simple
harmless remedy your hair will grad
ually be restored to it's natural color
in short time the dandruff will be
removed, and your hair will no long
er come out but will start to grow as
Nature intended it should.
Don't neglect your hair, for it goes
further than anything else to make
or mar your good looks. You can
buy this remedy at any drug store
for fifty cents bottle, and your
druggist will give your money back

Rest Room Needed.

Bemidji's need of a rest room was
emphasized on Saturday. AS that
was expected to be the last Saturday
of good sleighing many farmers came
to the city with produce and to- take
back provisions. The large number
of women seen waiting in different
places could not but help attract at
tention to the need of common rest
room where appointments could be
made and kept. This matter should
be taken up by the council at once.
