Red-blooded men Of courage are on
the firing line-and there are many
anemic. weak, discouraged men and
women left at home.
At this time Of the year most people
suffer from q condition often called
Spring Fever. They feel tired, worn
out. before the day is half thru. They
may have frequent headaches and
sometimes "pimply" or pale skin.
BloOdless people, thin. anemic peo-
pie. those with pale cheeks and lips,
who have poor appetite and feel that
tired. worn or feverish condition in the
springtime Of the year, should try the
refreshing tonic powers Of q good al
terative and blood purifier. Such a one
Is extracted from Blood root, Golden
Seal and Stone root, Queens root and
Oregon Grape root, made up with
chemically pure glycerine and without
the use Of alcohol. This can be OBJ

standard remedy that can be obtained
in tablet or liquid form.
A good purge should be taken once
a week even by persons who have a
movement daily, in order to eliminate
matter which may remain and cause a
condition of auto-intoxicati0n, poison
ing the whole system. To clean the
system at least once week is to prac-
tice health measures. There is nothing

HOW COLD AFFECTS SOUNDS
Numerous Example, Can Be Given,
but Exact Reason 10 Hard
4 to Explain.

A close observer describes two phe.
.homena Of nature not easily explained {:
First, that natural sounds. are very
different in the colder than in the
warmer months of the year; and, Sec
-Dnd. that waters have different tints
during the colder md warmer months.
En- A number Of examples occur to
prove the first phenomenon. Who has
not noticed the contrast in the noise
of the wind in different seasons when
It blows around the corner Of the
house-in summer what q soft, mellow
tone it has and In winter what a
harsh, rough whistle?
Then, again, let US stroll along the
banks Of a stream in May, June or
July, and we will observe that the wa
ter will then make gentle, babbling
sound. while in November or winter
It will. with not great volume, make a
hoarse, gurgling noise.
Still again, If we ramble In the
woods during late spring or early sum-
mer, we cannot but notice with what a
softness and mildness the wind has
been blowing through the tops of the
Trees; on the other hand, what a roar
ing 1t makes in cold weather.
Perhaps the trees being with or
without foliage may cause some diff
ference, but it will be observed in May.

tent. there Is even then a marked diff

The same elements and interests

to establish state socialism in full

school, where the simon-pure doc

taught to the students" said Mr..
! Doyle, in dealing with the LIE Sueur
and Mills factors in the North Da,-
kota situation. "And / believe by
the way, that Mr.. LIE Sueur was a
graduate Of that school, ana later on
a member of the faculty. This school
was under the direction Of one Wal

Socialist lecturer and anti-war pro-

And I just want to say a word
here in connection with Mrs. O'Hare

time following her arrest and again
after her conviction at Bismarck.
| She is a woman OF considerable nat
ural talent, possesses an active mind
and is quite fluent speaker, but
has the most perverted ideas on
governmental questions with which
have come in contact. She says she
owes all of her education on these
questions to Walter Thomas Mills;
and after I had attended her trial at
Bismarck, and saw and heard Mrs
O'Hare, l could not help but think
what a. tragedy it was in her life
that she had been SO unfortunate as
to ever meet and listen to the teach
ings of man like Mills.
And afterwards, when I heard
Mills speaking at different places in
the state, and read in the paper that
he had addressed the students OF
the Agricultural college and differ
ent state institutions, l thought how
little the fathers and mothers Of this
state realize the kind Of doctrine
that is being impressed upon the

CASS COUNTY IS
COLLECTING ONE
TON OF CLOTHES

This week will provide Cass coun-
tvs one opportunity to help alleviate
the sufferings in Belgium this win
ter by assisting the Red Cross in the
collection of used garments for
shipment overseas.
Cass county's quota for this par
ticular drive is one ton of clothing
and at 10 o'clock this morning Fargo
people had already begun telephon-
ing the Cass county headquarters
arranging to have their contribution
called for.
The Salvage department of the
Red Cross has contributed a room
for the storing Of the contributions
during the week and has also made
a gift of clothing from it's store. Any
one with offerings is requested to
send them to the room at the Sal
wage department at the Old Tele-
phone building, marked as refugee
contributions. If the donors cannot
possibly arrange for delivery the
Cass County chapter headquarters
may be notified and delivery will be
arranged for.
The Red Cross had not planned a
drive for refugee clothing for this
autumn until the return Of Herbert
Hoover late in the summer from his
TRIP TO Europe. IN a Hetter to Henry
P. Dovison, head of the Red Cross,
he wrote that there would be ter
rife suffering in Belgium this win
ter unless America came to the
rescue and the drive this week is
nation wide in it's scope. Upon the
response OF American people this
week may depend the lives Of many
of the Belgians, for this winter there
will be added t o the usual terrors
and sufferings of war the real pos
sibility of freezing to death, the sup
ply Of clothing being so reduced and
the only hope of relieving the suf-
fering being in the generosity Of
Americas response to this latest re-
quest of the Red Cross.
The work has been we'll organized
throughout Cass county and it is
hoped by the workers that the ton Of
clothing desired from this county
will be ready for shipment by the
first of next week.
Clothing that may be in need of
mending, but in such condition that
it can be made into warm, service
able garments may be sent for there
is much labor in Europe that can be
employed in mending and altering.

against chiffon evening gowns, satin
