ENTERED AS SECOND CLASS MAT- TER AT THE POSTOFFICE AT BE- MIDJI, MINN.,, UNDER THE ACT OF MARCH 38, 1875. Changing the Old Order. We change things not by discussing them, but by doing them. We improve the world by contact and conduct, and not by conducting arguments. concerned with changing the order of ourselves, and less concerned about changing the order of the world. Only a few accomplish things. The masses, or the many, follow, imitate — doing the “goose-step” along the beaten paths of precedent. The one great problem the world must solve is the problem of indi- vidual ineffiency. Has it occurred to you that the individual was in- tended to be a thoroughly compe- tent human being, with a set of brains equipped and used for think- ing purposes? Have you ever, in your saner moments, retired to some quiet spot to reflect how littls you make of your opportunities? We imagine there is some “magic short cut” to happiness, to ‘success, to fame—but this is not in the na- ture of things; the problem is with the individual. We have too many laws, too many pretenders, too much We need to be more|. hypocricy. What we really need is more humanity, more individuality— for after all, the individual is the thing. We can never produce an ideal government, or an ideal money sys- tem, or an ideal policy of business, until we produce fewer . quibblers and backsliders and more men of minds, who stand for truth, prinei- ple, honesty of thought and dignity |§ of purpose. What each of us needs to do is to change the order of our- selves! The individual is the pro- blem and this is the riddle Which must be solved. We need to systematize ourselves. And have you stopped to think that nearly all the problems of the world would be solved by tomorrow noon if each of us would today only get busy at some useful work, some use- ful thing? You cannot change the system of things by.discussing it or by arguing it over a glass of beer or between cigarette puffs. Criti- cising the system or the established order is the work of the man who is out of a job. These are the things which concern constantly the man who has no bank account and who has a “sneaky feeling” that the world owes him something he has not ac- tually earned. Men and women need to set out, to improve themselves instead of the world. We hear men who have nev- er done any useful thing—except la- bor to avoid work—criticising the prevailing system, explaining how the tendency of the race is wrong. Such criticism is usually but the dream of the man who has been and is a failure. His suggested changes are at least the ideas of a man who has had little experience and no re- sponsihilities. We change things not by discuss- ing them but by doing them. We improve the world by contact and conduct, and not by conducting ar- guments. We do the world a benefit only as we give ourselves a chance to grow. As we grow we do more work and better work, and this means more and better positions for our- selves and for others, a wider scope of influence, a broader and more beautiful life. Let the order of things be as it is —we need more to be concerned with the order of ourselves. Do not fret| and vex and fume over the estab- lished system. Just systematize your- self—your ways, your thoughs, your work, your mind—and then you have contributed to the better ‘and more practical and more beautiful way to-| ward which the world s certainly tending. tion; you-need the experience—s0 The world. needs_ your meentn-_ about your quilting! Leave the “great problems’ of changing the es- tablished order to the “corner groc- ery store philosopher” and to the man who has time to discourse on “goap box economy.” about the corner grocery store have time ta change the order of the world, but for the useful and capable man there is much work to do. On- 1y the man who is out of a job has time to change the world to his mood or fancy. * We criticise the man who has mon- ey; we suspect the honesty of the man who has made a success. Yet, it is the man who has made money, the man who ®as succeeded in life who gives us our opportunities! With- out such men there would be no bus- iness, there would be no positions! The day laborer, the man working in the ditch or the man who does|Cemetery. some clerical work, ig in position to do but little for the rest of mankind. He has no -nfluence, no experience, no capital. ‘What we need is more men of the|of the late Prince Henry of Batten- right kind with more money and|bers, who married the Princess Bea- fewer men with no money engaged “anvil chorus.”—Efficiency.

Bome time ago a New York business man, who is blessed with an extreme- Jy pretty daughter, took his family to ‘England for an indefinite period, dur. Jng which he was to establish British branches of his mercantile enterprises that count: ‘The charms of this young woman iwrought much havoc in the rank and file of the men who met her abroad. Bhe was sweet and gracious to all, but her heart, as well as her wit, be- longed to her mative land. One day er father found her at her desk, knit. ng her brows over a letter. “What's the trouble, my dear?” he msked solieltously. “Father,” she responded dolefully, “1 must write another declension, but nothing will induce me to conjugat until I.get back to the United States —Lippincott’s. - ROY] ‘BAKING POWDER | Absolutely Pure The only Baking Powder made fromRoyal Grape Cream of Tartar NO ALUM, NO LIME PIIOlPIlA'I'l Bachelors in Distress. The bachelors of an unpronounce able town in Hungary called Nagy- perkata are holding meetings of dis- tress and indignation. The town coun- cil at its last sitting unanimously voted that every unmarried man ove: the age of twenty-four must pay an annual tax. The thing is to be upon a #liding scale, poor bachelors baving o pay but 40 cents and the wealthier ones as high as $20. As soon as enough has been collected from the matrimonial delinquents a well- pauipped home is going to be built in the town for the education and main- tenance of homeless children. The tax, it is thought, will be ample to keep up the institution without other ald, and the town council is well satis- fled with its new enactment. 5 liam C.
