St. Paul, Minn "If the boy corn
growers of Minnesota, Wisconsin,
North and South Dakota, Montana,
Idaho, Washington and Oregon con
tinue the progress they have made in
the last year these states soon will be
Jn the front rank as producers of
juvenile agriculturists," according to
ProfeBsor R. A. Moore of the Univer
sity of Wisconsin, who judged the
boya' exhibits at the First National
Corn Show held in the mammoth Hill
Railway Building, this city. Trophy
cup awards valued at $5,000 were
irlven by the First National Bank and
the Northwestern Trust Company.
An exceptionally fine quality of
corn was raised by the boys of the
Northwest for exhibition in this show.
These "future greats" In the corn
raising field are rapidly putting these
states on the map as a new and won
df-rful corn belt. "Why the corn laid
down here for me to judge has proved
the most surprising in quality that I
have examined In the long years of my
association with the grain," said Pro
fessor Moore. Considering Professor
Moore's great reputation throughout
the United States as a corn judge,
this statement by him spells the high
st tribute that could be paid to boy
hood effort in this country.
There were no sweepstakes in the
Bliow, the competition of the boy
orn growers of the eight states be
ing confined to the boys in the dis
tricts of their state. Following are

STOMACH MISERY
- QUICKLY VANISHES
Your money back if you want it is
the way in which Daniel J. Fry, the
popular druggist, is selling Mi-o-na, the
great dyspepsia remedy.
This is an unusual plan, but Mi-o-na
has so much merit and is so almost in
variably successful in relieving all
forms of indigestion that he raa but
little risk In selling under a guarantee
of this kind.
Do not be miserable or make your
friends miserable with your dyspepsia.
Mi-o-na will help you. If it doesn't,
tell Daniel J. Fry that you want your
money back and he will cheerfully re
fund it.
A chango for the better will be sees
from the first few doses of Mi-o-na and
its continued use will soon start you
on the road to perfect digestion and
enjoyment of food.
Mi-o-na has been so uniformly suc
cessful that every box is sold under a
positive guarantee to refund the money
if it does not relieve. What fairer
proposition could be made.
Daniel J. Fry gives his personal
guarantee of "money back if you want
it" with every box of Mi-o-na that he
sells. A guarantee like this speaks
volumes for the merit of the remedy.
A Month's Experience
Under Prohibition
(By Til i tod Press.)
Portland, Or., Fob. 1. After a whole
month on the waterwngon, the hereto
fore wet portions of the three states of
Oregon, Washington and Id.iho are tak
ing an inventory of themselves. Total
arrests for Jnmtary, 1!H, show a de
crease of nearly two-thirds over the
same month last year, according to of
ficial records. In Seattle , Portland,
Spok.ine and Tacoma a drunken man is
not often seen, it is said. The novelty
of near-beer saloons hasn't worn off
and their ultimate success is still hang
ing fire. Many of these have adver
tised a welcome to women customers.
But only in curious groups, usually led
by a man, have the members of the
fair sex ventured inside. Many cell irs
ami basements in Oregon and Wash
ington are well stocked with liipior and
an easy way is provided for getting
more. Idaho, which has a drum tight
prohibition law, was nearly .til dry by
local option bet'orc statewide prohibi
tion took efect.

"SURVIVAL OP THE FITTEST'
A proprietary medicine like every
thing else that comes before the pub
lic has to prove its merit, it has. to
meet competition. The law of the
"Survival of the Fittest'' applies to
this as to other things. The fact that
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound after forty years of success is
still one of the largest sellers proves
that it is a dependable, standard rem
edy for the ailments of womankind,
and one in which they may have per
fect confidence.

Marie Klein, Pretty 18-Year-!
Old Girl, TeHs Story cf j
Horrible Treatment !
Xew York, Feb. 1. Rescued from
weeks of terrible slavery, pretty 1S
year nld Marie Klein, daughter of Pas
tor Charles Klein of the Betiiuny Re
formed church, told todny how she hail
been kidnapped, and auctioned, nude,
to a gang of lustful brutes.
Mii-sing since December Id, she had
been held in an Italian colony at Wil
liamsburg; her story of orgies there
shocked even hardened police author-1
ities. I
"Jimmy Naples dragged me from
our doorw.iv on the afternoon of De
ecniber 16," she said. "He showed
mo a revolver and threatened to kill
me if T tviivt tn pifi.nnd Tli,,,, 1,., '.-. .n 1
me to take flrti) worth of jewelry and
in rasa irom my parents, after
which he drove me to a house in the
Italian colony at Williamsburg, locked
me in a room and took away my
cljthes.
"At a Cnristmas hall of the colonists
I was fold. Naples ad been the door
keeper r.t my room, and he admitted
many men. The dance was breaking
up am1 it was getting toward dawn. 1
was tc.rildy ill.
"Naples calied the men back and
said I would he auctioned off. Then
they brought me down nude, but 1 was
too ill to know much what was going
on. Then they placed me on a stage
and held mc there while tho brutes
bid.
"I w.as delirious, but T could faintly
hear them $125, 30, :12, .f;l.'l, and then
by dollar and fifty cent increases until
I was sold to some ouo for $.io. I do
not know who bought me, for 1 became
unconscious, and woke up in the cot
tage where tho detectives found me."
Naples, the alleged abductor, is un
der arrest, but he was taken only after
a struggle in which detectives beat him
nearly unconscious to subdue him.
According to authorities, he had
played the part of friend to tho girl,
once helping her when hoodlums at
tacked her as she was on her way home
from organ practice at tho 'church.
Thereafter, he professed to be interest
ed in tho child and often ho called at
tho Klein home, saying ho would "al
ways defend her."
After the girl disappeared, it is
charged, terrorized her parents liv
threats to cut out their hearts if they
sought to connect him witii the case.
