Northmore of Lakeside, Minn., has a genuine tenor voice. No one who has heard it doubts it, especially since ; the four months’ training which it has received from ~her teacher. The young woman sings her tenor selec—| tion, in correct tenor range, with per- fect musical uncons¢iousuess and ex- quisite beauty. The range of Miss Northome’s voice is from E flat to high C, a full tenor range. Any at- tempt at making her sing. soprano in the same range, or contralto, has proven unsuccessful,—Dallas, ‘Texas Gazette. Will a merchant who is wise ever cease to advertise? Yes—when the trees grow upside down; when the beggar weaes a crown; when ice forms on the sun; when the sparrow weighs aton; when geld dollars get too cheap; when women, secrets keep; when fish forgets to swim; when} Satan sings.a hymn; when girls go back on gum; when the small boy hates a drum; when no_ politician schemes, when mince pie makes pleas- ant dreams; when its fun to break a tooth; when all lawyers tell the truth; when cold water makes you drunk; when you love to smell a skunk; when the drummer has no _, brass—when these things all come to pass; than man that’s wise will neglect to ad- vertise. Onr citizens deserve credit for the pride they take in our schools. We venture the assertion that not a student ever went forth from our little city, but went away with the best wishes of our people; they gave him encouragement during school life and when he departed took him by the hand and said “God Speed thee.” Not one who has finished the course in our schools, wherever he may now be, but wishes our town and her people well, for it was among our Christian people, surrounded by an_ influence that was elevating and noble, ani- mated by the splendid example our of citizens that he received the founda- tion which*makes him today the up- right citizen in any community in which he may live. Potato Crop Never Better. The commission merchants \expect | a geod potato crop this fall. Farmers in this vicinity are hopeful of an ex- cellent yield and the same feeling prvails elsewhere, judgiug from the following taken from the Duluth News Tribune: ‘‘From present indi- cations there will be plenty of potas toes fur everyone this year, and pota- toes of good quality. It is still a little early to figure on the exact size of the crop but everythipg points to an excellent yield. According-to one’ of the commission men on Michigan Street, the crop will be good but no- thing out of ordinary, simply a sub- stantial yield that will do away with Uhe ‘famine’ talk and result in rea- sonable prices. Sometime must elapse, however, before$the potato. crop is a certainty, as last’ year, about this time, the crop had every appearance of being a bumper one. Later the rot set in with disastrous results. The fall fruit yield was uever bet- ter, the crop being unusually jarge and of excellent quality. One of the dealers said yesterday that it bas been years since the prospects were better. The apple yield is excellent, The deceased | the fruit being solid and hardy. The early fall crop is already on the mar- ket.” ~ Happiness. There is one thing we ail long for and few ever find. 1t is the master-quest of mankind. It is the sum-total of all our pur- poses and pursuits. All other things are but incidental to it. : Fortune, fame, triumph, success— yes, friendship, loves, sacrifices are all but means to the one great end— Happiness. All men seek it unceasingly. But, groping, in ignorance, blindfolded by selfish longings, hates, envies, jealous- ies, malics and the like, they fail to find it—all but a very few. Philosopliers of all ages tell us that and yet it is the most seldom found, the trouble to heed them. , Happiness itself is not directly to be sought. It comes to us, if at all, as the scent comes to the rose—mys- teriously, but naturally, as the re= sult of right conditions. What can be successfully sought are the conditions under jwhich hap- piness is most likely to be found. We cannot cheat nature. We may get riches wrongfully, but we cannot gain happiness in that way. Though; the dying, the poor, the | crippled, the imprisoned, the despiped 3, sometimes mount to heights o ecstasy, yet, in the cases of most wen, bealth, liberty, modest means} and friends are the best sources of Satisfaction. if Congenial occupation is nec to most people’s contentment though | idlers and dreamers have delights not! tu be scorned by the strenuous. A clear conscience gives a rosy glow to lifeand makes a soft pillow for most of us, but itis not to be denied that there are plenty of jolly rascals. Undoubtedly happiness may be cultivated by always looking on the! “bright side of things,” for life is a mirror that reflects back to us our} smiles or frowns. | It is possible to train the ability to} find delight in litule and! generally unregarded things. Postives pleasur- es, as they are the more inteuse, are the less sovl-satisfying. The simple pleasures are the sweet | est. The best delights are to be found} in the common possessions of ail mankind—the caress of the sun, the kiss of the breezes on the hills, music, | the stars, faithful friendship, houest love, earnest purpose. Happiness is to be found, uot in the wultiplication or refinement of our wanots,but in the simplification of them.-<St. Paul News. The Shrievalty Contest. If no better argument can be made in favor of the candidacy of August Johnson than the fact that he is the Republican nominee and that ‘to the Republicans should go the spoils,” as announced in the Magnet this week, he does not deserve the votes of the people of this county. Partisanship has never entered into the public affairs of this county and should not | be permitted to. Entering politics! for “‘spoiis” doesn’t sound very well to the average voter and should be| repudiated wherever found. While itis true that most men seek office for the salary that attaches thereto, it is not safe to boldly announce that ab ambition to get the “spoils” is the the only recommendation. Wm. Hoolihan, the present incumbent of the office, has proved his eminent fit- ness for the position and the people known that he bas recommendations | other than his ability to take the fees | that the law allows. Argument That Counts. ie { The people of thegnorth half of| Itasca county are sanguine of success for the division proposition. The | committee bas made a careful can- | vass of the situation, and reports that the sentiment is undoubtedly strong in favor of creating the new county of Koochiching. The Internationa) Falls Press has the following to say on the subject in its last issue: ‘‘The local committee which has the county division campaign in charge 1s ,in daily receipt of the most encuuraging information from different sectionsof the county. Publicsentiment appears to be overwhelmingly in favor of the proposition. The desire of resideats of the proposed new county to avoid the expense and inconvenieuce inci- dent to traveling several hyndred miles to reach the county seat ratur- ally creates among them a strong sentiment in favor of division; while those who will still remain in the old county recugnize the injustice, of op- posing such a reasonable request and it ssary f.

TRAGEDY OF THE KLONDIKE. Few Minutes’ Exposure to Coid Is Fatal. Klondike river is fed by numerous soda springs and even the winter’s cold fails to close them entirely. Walking on the edge of the ice near the shore, a miner one day siipped Into six inches of water. In a mo ment he was out and hastening to the brush hard by to light.a fire before his feet froze. Rapidly he cut a few fragments of wood with his heavy pocket knife. But the unlighted match dropped from his already chill- ed fingers. for he had rashly removed his. mittens in order to use the knife with more freedom. Then he lighted @ second and a third, and finally sev- eral at one time, but either his haste or perhaps a sigh of the air caused them to fall to the snow. All this time the frost was seizing his limbs, his body, his heart, his mind. He turned to the fatal mittens, which he never should have taken off, but his already frozen fingers could only lift them from the ice where they had fallen, and after a vain attempt he Intense will ubseifishly unite with us in creating the new county. With an assessed valuation of about $8,000,000, which is far in excess of the valuation in many of the old counties of the state, it is certain that taxation for county purposes will not be materially ingreased, if at all, which facts deprives the oppon- ents of the project of their only ef- fective argumect. The more the question is studied,in all its phases, the greater is the senti- ment in its favor. German Betrothal Customs, ‘When a maiden is betrothed in Ger many she is called “bride” by her sweetheart, who addresses her thus ‘until it becomes time to call her “wife.” Immediately upon betrothai the lovers exchange rings, which, if the course of true love runs smooth, are to be worn ever afterward until death parts them. The woman wears her betrothal ring.on the third of her left hand until she is married, ‘and then it is transferred to the third finger of her right hand. The hus- band continues to wear the just | om hurled them from him and _ strove once again to light a last match. But it was too late. DON’T WAIT TOO LONG. Time: to Show Good Will and: Sym- pethy Is Right Now. Too many people keep the flowers they have plucked for. you until the day of your funeral. Their songs of praise are not heard until your pro- cession is passing their door. The mantle of charity does not become public property until put in use by the preacher who conducts the “last sad rites.” If a man has flowers for me, I want them while I am on earth and can smell their fragrance. They will do me no good sitting at the head of my coffin. The grass that is kept green about my last resting place will be of little avail to me on the other shore. Here is where I need the flowers and the smiles and the praise, not over there. If the fellow who is going rovnd to the house after I am gone to see “if he can be of any help” will come round to-morrow, I can tell him kow he can be a whole lot of help.
