THE BEST PROOF

Princeton Citizens Cannot Doubt It.
Doan's Kidney Pills were used
They brought benefit.
The story was told to Princeton res
idents.
Time has strengthened the evil
dence.
Has proven the result lasting.
The testimony is from this locality.
The Proof convincing.
Mart Dunning, Cambridge, Mimi,
says: ~ had an extreme lameness
in my back and I used Doan's Kidney
Pills. I soon knew that I had at last
found something that would remove
the lameness. I got great deal of
relief, too, from dizziness and my kid
neys were fixed up in good shape"
A Permanent Cure.
More than two years later Mr.. Dun
ming said: The cure Doan's Kidney
Pills gave me has been permanent. I
still highly endorse them.

A London wholesale provision house,
which prides itself on filling all orders
correctly, received a letter from a
provincial customer recently, COM
plainingly bitterly Of the very poor
quality Of the last two lots Of eggs
supplied.
The reputation of the house for
never making an error seemed to be
at stake, but the bright mind of the
junior partner found way out of it.
He wrote:
"Gentlemen: We are sorry to hear
that our consignment did not suit you;
there was, however, no mistake on our
part. We have looked up your orig
inal order, and find that it reads as
follows: Rush fifty boxes eggs. We
want them bad.' Bits.

To be sure we have had long-continued

winds have given us the go-by. Por-

! Sherburne, Benton and Stearns were
devastated by severe hail storms last
week. In places in Benton county
hailstones as big as hens eggs were
piled IL inches deep. Every growing
crop in the path of the storm was
literally pounded into the earth, and
the grain in shocks was damaged be-

structive hailstorm in the vicinity of
St. Cloud within the past two weeks.
a Protest.
I have been informed that a move
ment is being made to remove the
| hitching posts from our Main street.
| The same complaint were made sew
! eral years ago and it was decided to
allow no hitching of teams on the
street. So vigorous protest was
made by the farmers that the posts
were soon replaced. Within a month
I have talked with a number of farm
ers regarding the matter and one and
all object strongly to such move
Princeton is strictly farmers town
and if it will make it more convenient
for those who trade in our town to
have such hitching posts, let US by
all means not remove them.

THE WESTERN NORMAL.

The people of the southwestern
part of the state are anxious for tho
establishment of a normal school at
Dickinson. Both political parties are
committed to this in their platform.
West of the Missouri there is vast
territory, many sections of which are
already populous and thrifty, whose
people are contributing proportionate-
ly as much to the development ofs1he
state and to the support of it's govern
ment and institutions as are the peo-
pie of any other section. And in all
that territory, many thousands Of
square miles in extent, there is not
a single institution for the training
of those teachers upon whose efficien-
cy the wellbeing of the state depends
in such large measure. The young
man or young woman who desires to
become fitted for the work of teach.
ing, If q resident Of that district, must
travel several hundred miles to re-
ceive that training.
1t is upon this actual need that the
people OF the western territory base
their demand for better normal facili-
ties, and it is in recognition Of tho
real need that exists that both Repub.
lican and Democratic state commit
tees have declared themselves un.
equivocally in favor Of the normal west
of the Missouri in Grand

sion for the preparation Of public
school teachers. The maintenance Of
public normal schools. state, county
and city, costs the taxpayers Of the
nation about $6,600,0OO annually. At
first blush this would seem to be .
liberal sum; but when one remembers
that 1t is divided among 10 schools
the seeming liberality is transformed
into parsimony. The entire sum
would do no more than pay for the
annual maintenance Of Harvard and
Columbia universities. Yet, the whole
sum would not be more than half
enough to build and equip one dread
rought. Think Of it, the cost Of main.
tanning all the normal schools in the
United States for two years is no
greater than the cost of one of our
big battleships!
