The report of the liora rian for the
year will indicate a change in the
kind of books read by Grand Forks
people during the year.
Fiction leads the list as usual but
us percentage decreased during the
year. Politics has been having its cf-
feet on the reading public. During the
year past there have been several po-
iitical conventions and elections.
BOOKS covering these subjects have
been read with avidity. Books on SCI

demand than ever. The work of the
oetter farming association has UNI
doubtedly had a great deal of influ-
ence on the trend of thought.
Other subjects that have sprung in
to prominence on the list of books

leading subjects has been the drama.
Books on plays and dramas are very
popular. Music is also forging to the
front very rapidly. The fact that
Grand Forks has attained an enviable
reputation throughout the northwest

A Valuable Suggestion
IMPORTANT TO EVERYONE

II is now conceded by physicians
that the kidneys should have more at
tention as they control the other or
gans to a remarkable degree and do
tremendous amount of work in re-
moving the poisons and waste matter
from the system by altering the
blood.
During the winter months especial
ly, when we live an indoor life. the
kidneys should receive some assis-
lance when needed, as we take less
exercise, drink less water and often
eat more rich heavy food, thereby
forcing the kidneys TO do more work
than Nature intended. Evidence of
kidney trouble, such as lame back
inability to hold urine, smarting or
burning. brick-dust or sediment, sal
low complexion, rheumatism. may be
weak or irregular heart action. warns
you that your kidneys require help
Immediately TO avoid more serious
trouble.
An herbal medicine containing no
minerals or opiates has the most
healing influence. An ideal herbal
compound that has had most remark

der remedy is DIR. Kilmer's Swamp

OPEN OUT YOUR HAND.
Then Note the Effort It Requires to
Keep Il From Closing.

Many thousands of years have elaps.
ed since the ancestors of man lived in
trees. ut Is never TO be forgotten that
though ape-like forms, they We're not
apes) Yet. in spite of these tens of
centuries that have passed by, man has
not yet forgotten the instinct of self
preservation in the forest AS he was
tailess creature he was compelled
to depend for his safety on the grasp
ing power of his hands and feet. For
many ages. however, he had gradually
been going on the ground more and
that his feet became more adapted for
walking and his hands exclusively for
grasping, with the result that the grip
and muscular strength of his hands be
came immense. This is still most pow
erfully evidenced in young baby,
which, without muscular development,
can within a few days of birth hang
by both hands to stick for as much as
five minutes at time and by one hand
only for two or three, task beyond
the power of any adult except an ath
lete and gymnast.
But fact which is still more re-
markable is that to the present day
there is not one OF us that can hold his
hand open without discomfort and
absolutely no one whose hand will stay
open at all unless the will is eXerted TO
that end. Try It. Hold your hand
open for three minutes by the watch
and see how tired you will be- Lay
your hand on the table. the palm on
the wood. the fingers over the edge, and
see how. in spite of yourself, they will
curve round and grasp it. Look at the
hand OF sleeping person and think II
the fingers are ever shown to he out
straight
When the anatomy Of the hand Is
taken up 1t will be found that on the
palm and on the under side Of the
fingers are numbers OF nerves sensi-
tive to touch which respond as read
lily as the nerves of the eye do to color
or the nerves of the ear drum to
sound. These were the principal pro
lection OF our tree living ancestors, for
an immediate clutch at a branch was
necessary in rapid travel in the lower
branches OF great forest trees. The
sensitiveness is being lost. but 1t Is
being lost slowly. Yet even today we
can no more prevent responding to the
stimulation OF the sense of touch in
our hands than to the sensation of
light in the eye or sound in the ear.
Disregarding the thumb. the human
hand is really nothing more than an
adjustable hook 1t is at rests only
when In the position of "A hook. When
any one loses a hand the best substi-
tute is a stout metal hook.-New York

The Number Three.

Three. which since the days of Ply
thagoras has been the divine number,
is not invariably fortunate, for, though
the fates are three, so also are the
furies. The graces are three, but so
also are the judges in hades and the
heads Of Cerberus. Then there are the
records Of three disloyal tribes in
Welsh history; there are the three rob-
bers in Orion's belt; there were the
three tyrants at Athens, and three in
mythology is as unluckJ as it is di-
vine.
