Perhaps the fiercest fight of the
session to date was the struggle in
the House over the Coates-Gilman
election contest. In the Renton-St.
Cloud district Joseph II. Coates of
Sank Rapids was the Republican cam
didate for representative at the last
election and the venerable Charles A.,
Gilman of st. Cloud, former speaker
and lieutenant governor, ran as an
independent against him. The result
was practically a tie, but the board
of convassers gave the certificate of
election to Mr.. Coates. Mr.. Gilman
asked for recount of the votes, and
when the canvassing board refused to
recall its certificate. instituted a con-
test before the House. For several
weeks the elections committee Crap
pied with the problem and finally dis
agreed fourteen members signing a
majority report seating Mr.. Coates,
six minority report seating Mr..
Gilman. AL2 O'Clock Tuesday after
noon the fight broke out upon the
floor of the House and lasted four
hours. Many OF the ablest members
took part in the debate, which grew
more and more bitter as it proceeded.
At one time the lie was passed be-
tween II. G. Dunn. speaking for Mr..
Gilman, S. II. Child, speaking for Mr..
Coates, and the air was decidedly
sulyhurous when the vote was finally
taken, resulting in victory for Mr..
Coates, 60 TO AZ. Mr.. Gilman, who is
81 years of age, sat near the speakers
stand, following the bitter debate
with nervous anxiety.
The recall bill fathered by Senator
Monan, came to a vote in the Senate
this week and passed by large
majority. 1t includes in its provisions
all elective and appointiys officers,
judges not excepted. Two years ago
the Senate would not stand for the
recall of the Judiciary, and the fact
that it does now show the growing
radicalism of the age.
The Noonan bill provides h t
twenty per cent of the voters served
by the officer must sign petitions for
Ills recall before an election can be
called, and no one is allowed to cir
#culate petitions. They are to be left
with town clerks, village clerks and
other officers and the citizens must go
to their Offices to sign them. In the
case of judges, no recall proceedings
can be started within sixty days after
the decision or act complained OF. In
no case can such proceedings be in
stituted within six months after the
election at which the offending of

Old PeopI Need
4 B0Wel SfimuZdnt
The Ideal Ono is Mild Laxative.
Tonic That Will Keep the
Bowels Gently Active.

Healthy old age is so absolutely
dependent upon the condition of the
bowels that great care should bc
taken to see that they act regularly.
The fact is that, as age advance the
stomach muscles become weak ami
inactive and the liver does not store
up the juices that are necessary to
prompt digestion.
Some help can bn obtained by eat
ing easily digcstcd foods and By p!cu-
ty of exercise but this latter IS irh-
some to mort elderly people. On"
thing is certain. that Il state If con-
stipation should always hr avoided,
as it is dangerous to life and health.
The best plan is to take a mild laXa-
tive us often as is deemed ncCes-rry.
But with equal certainty it IS ST.
geStcd that cathartics. pUrgativCs,
physics, salts and pills be avoided, as
they do but temporary good and are
so harsh as to be- Il shock to deli
cate system.
a much better plan aud one that
Il ousandS of elderly people are fol-
loving. is to take gentle laXati"n-
tonic like Or. CaldwclI's Syrup Pen
sin, which acts as nearly like natur@
as is possible. In fact, the tendency
of this remedy Is to strengthen the
stomach and bowel muscles and so
train them to act naturally again,
when medicines of all kinds can usu-
ally be dispensed with. This is the
opinion Of many people of different
ages, among them Mrs. Mary A. p

OIL FROM CALGARY.
Secretary of Chamber of Commerce
Receives Sample From the Lat
est Field in Canada.

e. W. Evans. secretary Of the
Chamber of Commerce. has received
IL bottle of crude oil from a. Miller,
industrial commissioner of Calgary.
Alberta, Canada. with the compli-
luculs Of the Industrial and Develop
mcnt Bureau of Calgary. The sam
pie is from the latest discovered oil
field of the American continent in
the vicinity Of Calgary. The sample
was taken from the well Of the CAL
gary Petroleum Products company in
which the oil was struck on Octo-
Der I after several wonths of boring,
at depth of 1,5G2 feet. The well
is 30 miles southwest Of Calgary, in
section 6. township 20, range ..
IN analysis of the oil made by the
Easo Testing Laboratories shows
that il is Of exceptional purity. The
sample shows ii to be much clearer
than the oil Of West Virginia. The
purity OF the Calgary oil is further
demonstrated by the fact that it is
already being successfully used in
its unrcfincd state for the running
Of automobiles in Calgary and has
been put on sale at the garages there.

1nr situation has assumed such an

eel at the last moment his trip to

doubt in the presidents mind today
whether he could afford to leave

draft out measures and policies is
being taken into consideration by ad-

isn't it better to practice little COM
mon sense and keep ones complexion
passable and ones eyes intact? do
not think there is anything about the
human body that suffers more COM
plete neglect than the eyes and there
is no organ from which we ask more.
The eyes should be washed as re-
igiously as the teeth and you cannot
wash your eyes by rubbing them with
a sOapy cloth any more than you can
cleanse your teeth by washing your
lips and face.
Get an eye cup. Put it on the shelf
with your tooth brush and every
morning when you take your bath
wash out your eyes with a 20 per
cent solution of bOracic acid.
This can be made by putting a level
teaspoonful of bOracic acid in a half
pint of hot water and letting it stand
until the acid crystals are dissolved.
After this is cooled pour a tablespoon
of the liquid into the eye cup, apply
it to your shout eye, throw your head
back and open your eye so that the
water reaches the ball.
Turn this water out and fill again
for the other eye. You will be sur
prised how this will strengthen and
brighten your eyes. If you are troU-
bled with inf1amed lids this will cure
them, unless it is some very serious
trouble.
