"Talking about things that help
people, I have just received letter
from my sister in Waterloo, Iowa,
telling me she has gained sixteen
pounds in weight by taking Tanlac,"
said A. B. Steiner, 400 East Page
street, st. Paul, MIMI, recently.
my sister was on a visit to me
short while ago, and as she was suf-
fering from stomach trouble someone
advised her to try Tanlac, which she
did, and as I saw the great benefit
she was getting from it L decided to
try it myself, for I had been troubled
with my stomach for the past two
years. had very poor appetite,
and the little. I did manage to eat
seemed to lodge right in the pit Of
my stomach and sour. I would bloat
terribly after eating and have the
worst sort Of cramping pains in my
stomach, and at times I had such bad
attacks of heartburn I would nearly
go wild. My back gave me a lot of
trouble, and I had such intense pains
in the small of my back I could hard
" bend over. To add to my other
troubles, about two months ago I be-
gan to suffer with rheumatism in my
shoulder blades and arms, which got
so bad could hardly do my work and
could not even put on my coat with
out assistance. ! was so nervous !
could get but little sleep and would
roll and toss from one side Of the
bed to the other all night long, and
would get up in the morning all
tired out. was so badly run down
and had lost so much weight was
so weak I could hardly get about
at all.
"Well, while I have only taken five
bottle of Tanlac in all my improve
ment is simply remarkable. I have
such good appetite I am hungry all
the time, and my stomach is in such
a splendid condition can eat any,
thing I want without suffering the
least bit from it afterward. The
pains have all gone out of my back
and never have the least sign of the
rheumatism. In fact, never have
an ache or pain of any kind. I sleep
as sound as log every night and
have gained in weight and strength
until I can do twice as much work
as could before I began taking Tan
lac. Yes, sir, I can recommend Tan
lac after what it has done for me,
and know it will do the same for
others if they will only give it a fair
trial."
Tanlac is sold in Bemidji by City
Drug Store and by the leading drug
gists in every town.

CENTRAL SCHOOL NOTES

At a joint meeting of the city
teachers and the Normal School teach
ers held Thursday afternoon of last
week at the Forestry Normal, Miss
Agnes Osterberg of the Central School
discussed, can Experiment in Pupil
Subtraction" Miss Osterberg ex-
planned to the teachers the plan her
pupils had worked out to drill them
selves in spelling. The pupils have or
ganized themselves somewhat along
the lines of a company in the army.
There is a captain, a first lieutenant,
a second lieutenant and four SER
geants. The officers have seven STU
dents highest in rank in the spelling
tests which are made up from the
Ayers Spelling Scale. This spelling
scale is composed of the one thousand
commonest words used in the English
language. At any time that a private
in the ranks receives a higher per
cent in spelling than his superior Of
ficer, the superior officer is replaced
by the private. The officers assume
the responsibility for the improvement
in spelling of the pupils in their own
platoon or squad. When words of I'M
usual difficulty are met, the teachers
suggests methods of fixing these
words correctly in the mind. The plan
is a demonstration of what children in
the public schools can do in the way
of assuming the responsibility of their
own development, if given the oppor-
tunity. Thus far the plan has proved
very successful as revealed by the use
of the standardized spelling tests.
Miss Gertrude Robin, also of the
Central School, gave a report on,
elbow to Study an Educational Prob
lem by a Scientific Method" In her
preliminary remarks, Miss Robin pro-
duced the evidence to show the unre-
liability of teachers judgments in
rating examination papers of pupils.
Since teachers marks are unreliable,
Miss Robin %contended, we must look
for some means of a more exact
measurement, and a means which
would eliminate, if possible, a teach
er's judgment in determining a pu-
pills standing. Miss Robin went on
to explain the use of the Courts ST.
lent Reading test which is useful in
revealing in a purely scientific wav
the type of training which a pupil
needs to improve his silent reading
ability. She presented charts which
showed the exact standing in rate of
silent reading and in comprehensive
reading of each child in our schools
from the third to the sixth grade in
elusive. The method of diagnosis was
discussed and some suggestion were
made for the development of pupils
in comprehensive silent reading.
1t might be we'll for the parents to
get in touch with the diagnostic work
which is being done in the Central
School. The teachers will be glad to

A "DYsPEPTIC" CONDITION

When a man has dyspepsia he suf-
fers from an inability to assimilate
his food. There may be an abundance
OF dainties at hand, but he wastes
away because he does not have the
power to absorb nourishment. Unable
to eat enough to sustain life, he is
constantly tormented by the pangs of
starvation, and although near death
through a lack of nutriment, he is
kept in agony by the sensation of an
overloaded stomach.
/ And so it is with the body polite
under the present system of Organ
lied Graft and Special Privilege. The
toiling masses, although fully able by
their industry to provide for all their
wants, are eve in dire need, because
the System even prevents them from
consuming what they produce, much
less produce what they could under
favorable circumstances.
This has been the experience of the
human race ever since the overthrow
of feudalism in Europe. Men had no
sooner taken the edge off their appe-
tites than the body polite was seized
with the pangs of acute indigestion
and all the symptoms of an overload
ed system, which nothing but inter
mittent periods Of fasting would re-
lieve. Thus the story of the rise of
mankind from savagery, barbarism,
feudalism upto the present lop-sided,
topsy-turvy system of Organized
Graft and Special Privilege has been
the simple narrative of one period of
starvation after another.
The body polite will continue to
suffer of dyspepsia the world over un-
til the farmers and laboring people of
all kindreds, nations and tongues join
organization like the N%onpartisan
League and Union Labor, throwing
the big business pirates and grain
gamblers off their backs.
