Extrsmsty Popular Had a Singu
larly Adventurous Life.
^fed Buntllne," whose real name
B. Z. 0. Judson, bad a career
which was on Its plane Rooseveltlan,
bargantuan and Tartarinlan. It le de
scribed in "Life and Adventures of
*Ned Buntllne.'" by Fred E. Pond, otb
i-Mse Will Wlldwood, says the De
vl News. Judson ran away from
i home when eleven years old, In
$ A, became a sailor and then a mid
i|man. At fifteen he fought a duel
seven midshipmen who had de
fed to mess with him.
Then seventeen years old Judson
Ted with distinction In the Sem
le war. He became a hunter In the
*erglades, then hurried off to the
ickles In the employ of the North
\ast Fur company, turned back to the
^Southwest, where he irled and
fought more duels.
Judson became a mainstay of the
Knickerbocker Magazine in its best
years and was so violent a begetter of
Sensational romances that he onice\
wrote a book of 610 pages in 62 hours.
He turned into a patriot with the
Know Nothings, and on account of
his share in the Astor place riot was
sent to the penitentiary for a year.
He then took himself to the Adfron
dacks, which he helped make classic
ground for sportsmen. He served in
'the Mexican and Civil wars.
Buntllne" brought "Buffalo Bill" on
the stage In a play he wrote one Wed
nesday afternoon, rehearsed over the
Week-end and produced the following
Monday. He came to the end of his
career In 1886, only after he had writ
more than 200 volumes of tumul
tuous blood-and-thunder.
HEROINE HAD HER SYMPATHY
Swedish Maid Took Paragraph In
Book Which 8he Was Reading, a
Little Too Literally.
One of the peculiarities W bur lan
guage was brought to ths notice of a
Chicago woman by bar Swedish maid.
This girl had attended night school
for some weeks and was delighted by
her attainments In BngU&b. She ex
pressed her wish to try her knowledge
by reading a story In English, and the
mistress recommended for her perusal,
tsto called "A Modern Cinderella,"
then running in one of the magaslnes.
ft Iras simply worded and appeared
not to present any lingoJstlc pitfalls.
"Did yon like It, Hilda7' asked the
tBolstress, when the magaslne was re
turned.
Tas, ma'am," was the reply, "but I
am sorry she had so much trouble and
those glass eyes, too. My brudder, he
had one glass eye, and it was hard for
Mm."
The lady of the house was puzzled
so Hilda unfolded the magazine and
pointed with a respectful finger to the
following undeniable proofs:
"As Polly moved about the kitchen,
doing her work, her eyes suddenly fell
en the letter which lay unopened on
*er aunt's lap.
"'Keep your eyes where they be-
long,' said that lady sharply, and poor
tolly colored with shams."
How the Heart Beats.
A normal heart, from long before
birth to death, beats roughly once a
second, and If it stops beating at any
time of day or night or weekday or
Sunday for as long as sixty seconds it
never begins beating again. The nor
mal beat begins at the top of the heart
and runs down to the bottom of the
heart with the regularity of a toss
running down the length of a rope.
When the toss, however, instead of
running regularly down the length of
^the rope, scatters its force and merely
sets the rope shaking feebly through
sot Its length It loses Its force, and
to the same way when the beat of the
heart instead of running regularly and
easily down from the top of the heart
to the bottom merely sets the heart
feebly a-quiver we have the condition
called filtration.
Air's Density Chsnges.
Job spoke of the "bottles" of heaven,
and St. Augnstlne and others thought
there were windows in heaven, and as
these were opened or closed so the
rain began and ended. But that was
long ago. Even as tote as the middle
of the eighteenth century the chemical
"lature of the air was not known.
ie density of the atmosphere re
amed constant It could all be cora-
-n/ *esse Into a layer about five miles
Clap "Ick. In that case the highest moua
gladlr% peaks would stand out in specs
dent tfcing the so-called homogeneous
l*a '^osphere. But the density de
^prtJ^lases with elevation, and when the
fetorhreachesaan elevation 10,000
frf
ti^n
le in medium whicofIs only
^lObout one-third as dense as at the
ground. There are no clouds above
this level.
Fashions in Suicide.
It seems that there are fashions in
{suicide. A medical Journal traces their
history from the stone age, when men
fsought death by Jumping from cliffs
or disappearing In the sea. The an
ie nt Egyptians poisoned themselves
with prossic acid extracted from peach
kernels: the Italians of the Renais
sance used weird combinations of ar
senic. Shooting came with the cheap
ening of firearms, asphyxia with tne
use of gas for lighting. Carbolic acid
was the favorite method when every
household kept a bottle of this for
fighting bedbugs. The death of a
banker from an accidental' dose of
mercuric chloride (corrosive subsV
t?) eet a new fashion.
RIDAY EVENING, JUNE 18, 1920 THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER
TOKEN OF THEIR GOOD WILL
8ovlet Government Made Present of
Entire Train to Americans Whom
They Expelled.
When the soviet government took
control in the Urals, writes French
Strother in the World's Work, the
workmen at Kyahtim organised their
soviet They waited on the American
staff at the mines and said they were
sorry, but a new day had dawned, in
which the workers would be sole to
own and operate everything them
selves. Regretfully, because they
Uked asm, they woald have to ssnd
their American ftlsnds sway. She day
of their departure arrived and the
workmen and their wires and children
escorted the staff, as a guard of honor,
to a train which they had pro-
rspecial
to tike them away from Kysh
The train was decked with flags
and loaded with flowers aid delicacies.
Just sf It was about to pull out, amid
tine friendly snoots of the newly en
throned proletariat, the leader of the
soviet In great excitement called the
senior American back to the platform.
"I almost forgot to tell you,** he
gasped. "The special traindont
bother to send it back It also Is a
present from the soviet to our good
friends the Americans."
Power!si Magnets.
la a far cry from lifting a tack
by means of magnetism to the lifting
of massive Iron plates weighing four,
six and twelve tons by tins same force,
which Is now dons every workday In
a number of large steel works. Blec
tromagnetlam, of course, Is utilised,
the form of the magnet being usually
rectangular for this work and present
ing a flat surface to the pistes lifted.
The magnets are suspended by chains
from cranes, and pick up the plates
by simple contact. The metal plates
can be lifted by the magnet while still
so hot that It would be impossible for
men to handle them. The ratio of
weight lifted varies with the machine
in some cases this ratio is 80. A mag
net is operated by current from a dy
namo, controlled by switches and rhe
ostats.

IT DID NOT FAIL
SAYS VAN DOREN
"All My Wife's Troubles Are
Gone Since She Took Tan-
lac," States
"It has been many years since my
wife enjoyed such fine health or felt
so well generally as she does since
taking Tanlac," said George E Van
Doren, a well-known machine design
er residing at 294 West Albans St.,
St Paul, Minn., in a statement the
other day.
"Several years ago my wife suf
fered a general breakdown," he con
tinued, "and since that time her
health has been miserable. She had
indigestion so bad that nearly every
thing she ate soured on her stomach
and caused her to have heavy, nau
seated feeling in her chest for hours
afterwards. She suffered from con
stipation and constantly had to be
taking laxatives. Her nerves were
badly upset and little noises she had
always been used to would startle her
terrible. She was restless at night,
got very little sleep and had lost so
much strength and energy that she
looked like she was almost ready to
give up any time.
"I spent a lot of money on differ
ent medicines and treatments, but
everything failed until she tried Tan
lac. But Tanlac didn't fail and that
is just the reason why her troubles
have all left her and she is looking
so well and strong today. She does
not have to worry over what to eat
now, because everything agrees with
her and she does not suffer any bad
after effects at all. She is free from
constipation and her nerves are so
steady she can sleep all night long
like a child. Since her troubles have
disappeared she is getting back her
strength and energy and says she is
feeling like a different person alto
gether."
Tanlac is sold in Bemidji by City
Drug Store and by the leading drug
gists in every town.
