THE STUDY OP MAN. It is a notable fact that many of the most prominont writers and novelists havo found it neces sary to withdraw into tho coun try to get their best ideas of men and city lifo.

In short, men in the center of things havo too little time to think and so really know little of tho very men with whom they associate. A man who understands mon knows that they need some good tonic like golden grain belt boor, that they wear out with constant work and tind recreation and in spiration it this delicious health food. It rests and builds up both mind and body. Order of your nearest dealer or bo sup plied by John Essler, Bemidji. GOODS GUARANTEED. this label.
