The tiny lights come and go among

oriain of the Caucus.

The origin of the American caucus
dates back TO Revolutionary days, being
traced to the Caucus club of Boston.
This club was composed mainly of per
sons engaged in shipbuildng. 1t was
one of the most radical opponents of
British oppression. The Caucus club
and the Merchants club of the same
period used TO meet before elections
and agree on candidates for town and
provincial offices. Caucus is believed
to be corruption of "cauIkers."

The marked decline in wheat was at

Statistician Finds
st. Louis Paper is
Figuring Wrong

Ridiculous" says the Omaha Auto
club
In thus rudeN breaking silence. the
club has reference TO the statement in
a Sc Louis newspaper that there is a
continuous automobile parade through
Kansas to San Francisco. The Omaha
Auto club knews better. II says 1t knows
this is merely put out as press agent

st. Louis paper said about the autos go

'one every minutes" was what p. T.
Barnum said. Only Barnum was not
speaking of autos. He was speaking OF
the class Of people who believe the ''one
every elght-minutes" story
Now the Omaha Auto club has done a
little arithmetic. II has shown that "one
every eight minutes" would mean l.0eO
autos I'm week, or 500 month. Then
the Omaha Auto club points out that the
trans-continental auto traffic has as yet
hardly started. Therefore, they conclude
that this announcement in the st. Louis
paper is the most ridiculous Ananias
fable, and that the aouthern cities arc
almost breaking their veins in an effort
to divert all the traffic through their
routes.
Then the Omaha Auto club boldly an

Crookston Happenings Always Inter.
est Our Readers.

After reading Of so many people in
our town who have been cured by
Doan's Kidney Pills, the question
naturally arises: els this medicine
equally successful in our neighboring
towns ?" The generous statement of
this Crookston resident leaves no
room for doubt on this point.
P. w. Horton, retired farmer, us
Hunter st., Crookston, Mimi, says:
"Thirty-fve years ago while I was on
a farm in Ontario, Canada, I began
to have trouble with my back and
kidneys. I slipped and fell while
carrying a sack of grain and this
started the complaint. I was laid up
for month and after that, had sharp
pains in my kidneys, with a steady
ache through my loins. My back was
so lame that I had to get on my knees
to pick up anything. 1 was obliged
to get up six or eight times at night
to pass the kidney secretions and
they scalded. I tried different medi-
cines and plasters, but never found
relief until I took Doan's Kidney
Pills. They put an end to the suffer-
ing and for the past three years, I
haven't needed any kidney medicine. -
