Dear Sgd: After you left last
night, Zoe Ellington became much
ten o'clock, without regaining her
senses.
All the while she kept asking Les
lie to forgive her for coming into
her home. Poor little girl, she gave
away more of her life than she prob
ably would ever have told if she
had not been delirious.
Poor thing, she kept babbling, "He
made me join la coupe and l loved
him So | didn't want to rob you
said I wouldn't. I won't. l won't
| won't"
Sgd, she screamed and screamed
and screamed until thought
should lose my mind They tried to
calm her with opiates, but her nerves
were in such a condition from the
shock that the drugs had no effect.
1t seems the love she had for Les
lie and the babies had worked a
great change in her. She had EN-
phatically refused to rob US and she
paid for this resolution with her life
1t has been terrible shock to
both Leslie and me.
After all. Sgd, loves and ideals
that are worth fighting for, are
worth dying for. Zoe carried he,

GOVERNOR SORLlE HAS A
GOOD IDEA

IDu uLl feTdlQ)
Governor a. G.. Sorlie of North
Dakota, in an interview with a staff
correspondent printed in The
Herald last evening. made the
timely and sensible proposal that
Governors Day at the Duluth Ex-
position of Progress De made the
ccca sion for a conference OF the
governors of Northwestern states
to consider problems that are com
mon to the region.
Governor Sorlie also pail fine
tribute to the Dulutn Exposition.
for which Duluth is grateful, and
he praised Governor Christianson
Of Minnesota for inviting these
governors 10 join him in Duluth.
The idea of taking advantage Of
this opportunity to get together
and talk things over with a view
20 some sort OF united action is
logical, and it must appeal to the
other governors vino are invited.
There are many problems that
are common to the state these gov
ernors preside over, and the lead
ing problem suggested by Cover
nor Sor.ie is very close to Duluth's
heart. That is the st. Lawrence
outlet. Of which the governor said.
Take the Duluth st. Law
renee waterway project as just
one instance Every farmer
and business man in the North
west is keenly interested in
that, because it means lower
transportation costs. anu all of
us should do everything in our
| power to make II a reality at
the earliest possible moment.
Unless we keep pushing. it
| may drag along for years. We
| want action. and If we com
bine intelligent.y we can get it
quickly.
That is good logic and sound
sense.
Duluth hopes That the governors
invited by Governor Christianson
will all be here for Governor g
Day at the Exposition. and that
they will make the day notable by
a conference out of which big
things from the Northwest may
flow.

ON HEALTH--
KEEP A MEDICINE CABINET

Time was when every mother kept
a well-supplied medicine cabinet, and
was able to administer first-aid in
case of almost every kind of minor
injury or ailment.
In addition she gathered roots and
herbs from the woods, or cultivated
plants Of curative properties in her
yard or garden.
Doctors were fewer in those DAYS.
They often lived at a great distarIe,
and with no telephones nor auto
mobiles it was difficult to obtain a
doctor on short notice.
Times have changed. There are
more physicians, and they are more
efficient Corner drug stores have
sprung up in nearly every locality.
So mothers are learning to depend
upon the drug store and the doctors,

BRYAN SHOULD STUDY BACON

Epicurus:
'Non deos vugi negare profanum; sed vugi opinones

even as they are learning to depend
upon the delicatessen stores and the
grocery stores for their meals.
Some good has been brought
about by the change, of course. But
one is prompted to ask if the drift
has not gone too far.
No mother should be ignorant of
simple remedies for minor injuries
to her children. 1t should not be
necessary to run to the drug store
or call the doctor every time Johnny
cuts his finger or "stumps" his toe.
The medicine cabinet should be re-
instated in the home. And the moth
er should know how and when to use
its contents.
But-and this is important-be
sure that all walls containing poison
are correctly labeled, and that they
are kept away from the children.

A Challenge to Americas Laws
Chicago had ITO murders in the

is unusual; but not so unusual as a
fourth of that number would be in
any equal population in the countries
from which Chicago's inhabitants
| came.
Compare the number of "old
American" murderers with the record
of England, or of the immigrant ma
tionalities with the records of the
countries from which they came, and
you will find that the same numbers
of the same sorts of people COM
mitted many more murders in
America than in Europe.
Some of the reasons are doubtless
! obvious, and explain if they do not
excuse a part of the difference.
But, even with this allowance, the
, situation is a challenge to our law
government and institutions to vim
dictate themselves.
