"THE RAIDERS" AT THE BEX THEATER NEXT SATURDAY Those of our local movie devotees who are fond of the picture along the lines of Marshall Neilan's "River's End" 'and. BH1 Hart's "O'Malley of the Jloyal Mounted," milll have an oppor tunity of seeing at the Hex theater on next Saturday a picture which is considered to be among the best of the many film dramas which have taken their inspiration and back ground from the Royal Northwest Mounted Police of Canada. Not since the days of the Old Santa Fe trail and the Indian uprisings in Minnesota and Montana has the North American continent had a field so fragant with iromance as that of .which lies in the western provinces which lies in the weestern provinces of th Dominion of Canada. Here 'throughout the entire year in little secluded posts members of the Royal Northwest (Mounted Police serve their king and country as guardians of the peace and upholders of the law. In "The Raiders" the picture in which Mr. (Farnum will appear, the author has concocted a story which combine quick action, logical plot and suspense, followed by full satisfaction and at no time does he transgress the ibounds ,of possibility and probabil ity. Mr. Farnum is at bis best in virile characters such as Private Fitzgerald of the Royal Mounted and in his uni form he presents a picture which will make the hearts of Vnany a lovely maiden palpitate. "PLAYTHINGS OF DESTINY" AT THE REX SUNDAY When many stars and directors are 'DewaiHng the dearth of good stories for screen production, Anita Stewaft has come along with "Playthings of Destiny," the First National attrac tion announced for exhibition at the Ilex theater for two days, beginning The development of the story is extremely dramatic and the variety of lotate^from the north woods of Canada to the tropics of Jamaica should make it an extremely lavish production scenically. The wholly unexpected climax brings a highly interesting story td a fine ending. Two stormsone a blizzard of the far north and the other a tropical tornadoserve as the scenic back ground for two the emotional high points in "Playthings of Des- tiny." Quite appropriately the bliz zard serves to separate the woman i and the man she adores, while the I tornado serves to bring assurance to her that he has always loved her. In tlhe staging of the storms Direct or Edwin Carewe accomplished, a leaMam that hias caused favorable comment even from others in the same !iine who have striven for the same effects without the success which Mr. Carewe has obtained. "DYNAMITE ALLEN" AT REX THEATER TODAY George Walsh stirred big audiences to enthusiasm yesterday at the Rex theater( where he opened a two days' engagement in his latest William Fox production, entitled "Dynamite Al- len." This etory was written byj rrhomas iF. Fallon, the author of sev eral well-know Fox successes, and was directed by that veteran of the megaphone, Dell Henderson. The applause that attended the tihowljng of (the picture here van convincing evidence not only of Walsh's popularity, but of the win ning quality oi| the stirring tale of the mining region of Pennsylvania. Walsh,'as the hero, is engaged In an attempt to clear his father of a chargo of murder, and as a result Is himself beset with all sorts of diffi culties. The entire production abounds in thrills and sensational features which will be appreciated oven the most blase. There are many sirring situations and a sprinkling i of comedy. The picture is clean and wholesome throughout, one which should afford anyone a thoroughly enjoyable evening. A cast that does excellent work includes Kdna iMurphy, Dorothy Allen. Byron Douglas and J. Thornton Baston. Will Rogeite has another tramp role. Everyone who saw tils "Jubilo" knows wiith what fidelity, humor and luiuian-ne he depicts the American hobo and will want to see him as the tramp in "An Unwilling Hero," his latest Goldiwyn photoplay which comes to Grand theater beginning to night. Inl th's fllni! Rogers is first, last and always a real, honest speci men of the American tramp, his aver sion to work equalled only by hH aversion to being forced to remain in anyone locality more than a few days at a time. "An Unwilling Hero" is based upon an O. Henry story, "Whistling Dick's Christmas Stocking," and possesses all the humor, unexpectedness and charm which O. Henry put into that tale.

NORTHERN NATIONAL BANK BEMIDJI, MINN. mm MIGHTY SUSPICIOUS LOOK Washington Correspondent Tell* of Joke Played by Senators on Veteran Capitol Barber. One of the most remarkable things arout men, beahey of high or low es-, tate, Is that they never grow up. Take for instance, that group of el der statesmen In the United States sennte. Here Is the trick they were caught playing on Sims, the old negro barber at the capltol, who has been shaving them and their kind for forty years. Sims I* a preacher and great Bibli cal authority when he is not shaving senators. He is profoundly religious. He has confidence in his fellows. So, when Senator Harry.New of In diana told Sims that he had a present for him, the venerable barber walked Into the trap all unsuspecting. The senator said he wanted to be stow his present in private. He and Sims went Into an anteroom.. The sen- QUESTION CLEARED UP Bemidji Readers Can No Longer Doubt the Evidence. Again and again we have read of strangers in distant towns who have been cured by this or that medicine. But Bemidji's pertinent question has always been "Has anyone here in Bemidji heen cured?" The word of a stranger lhing a hundred miles away may be true, but it cannot have the same weight with us as the word of our own citizens, whom we know and respect, and whose evidence wc can so easily prove. O. E. Erickson, prop, of grocery, 1223 Minnesota Ave., Bemidji, says: "Several years ago, when working on the street railway, I had a bad at tack of kidney complaint caused by so much jolting and shaking. It fin ally settled in my kidneys and made it hard for me to keep going. My kidneys acted irregularly, too. I bought Doan's Kidney Pills and two boxes cuied me. Since then I have been free from all signs of kidney trouble." Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedyget Doan's Kidney Pillsthe same that Mr. Ericksen had.
