HOW TO FIGHT
SPANISH INFLUENZA
By DIR. L. W. BOWERS.

Avoid crowds, coughs and towards,
but fear neither germs nor Germans
Keep the system in good order, take
plenty OF exercise in the fresh air and
practice cleanliness. Remember clean
mouth, a clean skin, and clean bowels
are protecting armour against disease.
To keep the liver and bowels regular
and to carry away the poisons within,
it is best to take vegetable pill every
other day, made up OF May-apple, aloes,
jalap, and sugar coated, to be had at
most drug stores, known as DR.. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets. Ii there is sudden
onset OF what appears like hard cold,
one should go to bed wrap warm, take
q hot mustard foot-bath and drink copi-
ously of hot lemonade. Ii pain develops
in head or back, ask the druggist for
Anuric (anti-uric J tablets. These will
flush the bladder and kidneys and carry
off poisonous germs. To control the
pains and aches take one Anuric tablet
every two hours, with frequent drinks OF
lemonade. The pneumonia appears in
a most treacherous way, when the infiu-
enza victim is apparently recovering and
anxious to leave bis bed. In recovering
from bad attack of influenza or pneu.
monia the system should be built up
with a good herbal tonic, such as DR..
Pierces Golden Medical Discovery, made
without alcohol from the roots and barks
of American forest trees, or his Irontic
(iron tonic) tablets, which can be OBJ
tanned at most drug stores, or send l0c.
to DIR. Pierce's Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo,
II. x, for trial package.

NAROBIA
Guaranteed Furs.

The rich, raven-black, lustrous,
long-haired Fox and Lynx effect Of
your Narobia Furs on the day you
first wear them, remains until the
last.
The NarObia guarantee says so.
The Innings are as 'unrippable" as
human fingers can make them; the
hairs are as firmly intrenched as
the special Narobia process can as
sure them
Doesn't it seem a Wanton waste of
money to pay three, four and five
times the cost Of Narobias for furs
that, at best, can only give frac-
ton of Narobia Service?

What Determines Meat and
Livestock Prices?
Some stock men stin think that Swift &
Company-and other big packers-can pay
as little for livestock as they wish.
Some consumers are still led to believe
that the packers can charge as much for
dressed meat as they wish.
This is not true. These prices arc fixed by
a law of human nature as old as human
nature itself-the law of supply and demand.
When more people want meat than there
Is meat to be had, the scramble along the line
to get it for them sends prices up. When
there is more meat than there are people who
want 1t, the scramble all along the line to get
rid of it within q few days, while it Is still
fresh, sends prices down.
When prices of meat 60 up Swift 4
Company not only can pay the producer
more. but has to pay him more. or some
other packer will.
Similarly, when prices recede all down the
line Swift Company cannot continue topay
the producer the same prices as before, and
still remain In the packing business.
All the packer can do is to keep the expense
of turning stock into meat at q minimum
so that the consumer can get a. much as
possible for his money, and the producer as
much as possible for his livestock.
Thanks to its splendid plants, modern
methods, branch houses, car routes, feet of
refrigerator cars, experience Reorganization,
Swift & Company is able to pay for live
cattle 90 per cent Of what It receives for beef
and by-products. and to cover expense of
production and distribution, as well as its
profit "a small fraction of a cent per pound),
out of the other 10 per cent

SCENES STAGED IN

The famous old Garden Theatre Of
New York was used for the staging
of important scenes in can American
Widow a Metro wonderfully starring
Ethel Barrymore, which will be the
attraction at the Orpheum Theatre on
Friday and Saturday, Feb. 8 and 8.
This story called for scenes showing
the premiers of comedy success on
the stage with a capacity first night
audience, and the presence of the au-
thor and his wife in lower box. A
score or more of high powered studio
lights were installed for the photo
graphing of these theatre scenes.
Many unusual lighting effects were
secured, including one which showed
the gradual darkening of the theatre
as the curtain was lowered, and the
throwing of the house lights at the
intermission.
Ethel Barrymoe, as the "widow"
appears in a lower box and Irving
Cummings, as the author, steps be-
fore the curtain and delivers an adj
dress at the call of author, author"
Several farcial scenes of the Eau

therefore showing a play within a
play.
Director Reicher was very success
full in getting his audience to register
the spirit Of the scenes.

ed with breaking into the basement of
the Eastwood Park Grocery, owned by
Edward Rosen, and taking therefrom
a quantity of Mr.. Rosen's stock. In
their haste to get away, the fellows
who did the mischief neglected to
close the basement window, and Mr..
Rosen is mourning the loss of about
500 bushels Of potatoes worth seven
or eight hundred dollars, besides other
grocery stock stored in the basement.
Mr.. Rosen missed some of his goods
and search was made. 1t was found
that the boys had sold some of the
stuff they secured to "Swede" Holt,
who says he did not suspect where it
came from. This was returned to Mr..
Rosen. The loss of what was taken
amounted to nothing as compared to
the damage to the potatoes.

"The members of the Minot Burns
Club are again reminded by this an
niversary that Poets are born-not
made and in speaking of such a re-
markable genius as Robert Burns, we
are proud to call him Scotland's IA
vorite Bard, not simply because he
was born in Ayrshire, Scotland, but
because he retained the Scottish dia-
lect and made the humane qualities of
the Scottish people to be admired and
honored in every civilized Christian
country. The wonder is often express
sed that anyone could rise amidst such
humble surroundings and remote OBJ
security to the very pinnacle of world
ly fame, admiration and esteem by
prince and peasant alike. So we say,
There is Divinity that shapes our
ends, rough hew them as we may
And that the fullest and sweetest dis
closures of Divinity have been and
are made thru forms Of clay. So alike
the poet that thrills the soul with rich
est melodies akin to the Divine, must
oftimes feel the impact and pressure
of mother earth and know full surely
that he is human. The bird that rises

with song, builds it's nest upon the
