Carmen Sylva says that reticence is the secret of married happiness. The first fatal and irreparable mistake in married life is that of confiding one’s sorrows to the nearest, dearest friend —of allowing any one a peep into the difficulties of the situation. And it must be owned that in this matter men, on the whole, display greater reticence and discretion than the majority of women. Every woman should remain more or less a sphinx, even to her own hus- band, so that he may always find in her some new riddle to solve; the mystery that envelops her is one of the greatest charms in his eyes, and the feeling with which it inspires him is one of well nigh religious awe. If they could but understand this surely many a wife would spare her husband the hysterical outbursts, the tears and scoldings, which can only tend to alienate still further his af- fections, without affording herself the slightest relief. Love is the great magician, who alone can work miracles. It lives on throughout all change, fitting itself to altered circumstances, and triumphing in the end over fate—over death itself. 1dministers it to his readers ata single dose: “Every family should have a curfew which should possitive- ly “ring tonight” and every night if needed.

Those who are beginning to think, iew of the rapid increase of the population of this country, of the time when overcrowding will bea problem to be met with and solved, should turn their attention to the resources still remaining in waste areas, which are yet to be reclaimed by the twin remedies of irrigation and drainage. Of the wastes needing irrigation this part of the country knows little by actual experience, but of those needing drainage it knows much, and that the public sentiment on the subject has reached something more tangible than mere theorizing isevident from the fact that the late legislature appropriated $100,000 to be used in drainage of state lands. This is regarded as merely a start, and it is to be followed by much arger investments uf state funds in this most profitable enterprise. A corespondent of The Herald in Washington, 1n an interesting article that appeared Saturday, speculates interestingly on what drainage is going to mean to this courtry. He finds that in the whole country there are more than 60,000,000 acres uf swamp or overflowed lands, most of which can be made available for agriculture by drainage. The correspondent supposes, for purposes of argument, that only half of this area is susceptible of redemp- tion by drainage, and then goes into “figures to show what this will mean. It would involve the drainage of 25,000,000 acres of these swamps, and that would mean that the land values of the country would be in- ereased by more than §$2,500,000,000. ‘This would be nearly all clear gain, aside from the comparatively small cost of drainage, for these lands are now practically worthless. The crop values of these sections vould be increased by more than 750,000,000 annually. If it were possible to subdivide this enormous area into 40-acre farms, it would supply.1,250,000 families with homes, and would put 6,000,000 people upon lands that are now idle and worthless. Each of these families would spend $2,000in houses and equipment for their farms, which would cause the expenditure on the waste lands of today of more than $2,500,000,000.

In married life it depends chiefly on woman’s deft touch to keep alive the sacred flame, tending it carefully through every transformation. It is, thanks to her delicate tact, that the fitful light whose glamor il- lumined love’s young dream. instead of being extinguished by the first chill breath, shines on undimmed as the steady, constant glow of friendship in star voars —Philadelphia Bulletin. Changes In Game Laws. The late state legislature made ral changes in the laws regarding fishing and hunting. Among them the following are those of especial interest to this section: The warden way arrest in future ; without a warrant any who violates any of the state game laws. | .A light may be used for the spear- jing of coarse fish during only ten | | Notice of Mortgage Foreclosure Sale. iven that ions of that c d delivered ses person e ment of and duals ep ed for record on Ap he office of the ister of d months of the year, not twelve as heretofore.

The new season for mink and muskrat is from Nov. 15th to April 15th following. For information leading to the arrest and conviction of any violator of the moose and caribos law a reward of $50 will be paid; a violation of the deer law a reward of $25, and for the yiolation of the other game and fish laws a reward of $10 will be paid. Befooling The Public. Many publications in this country are lending themselves, either through carelessness or guile, to the efforts of a bureau that is seeking to educate the public in the undesirability, im- practicability and frightful danger of municipal ownership. This bureau is sending out ‘‘free of cost” bulletins telling municipal ownership failures all over the world, the obvious intent being to convince the public that such ventures are commonly fraught with disastrous results. These items are unverified, and may or may not be true.. Taken by themselves, without a hint of the many municipal ownerships that have been eminently successful, like those of Duluth, for instance, they are misleading, and are intended to be misleading. Whether the newspapers and_peri- odicals that are giving their space to these bulletins are doing it to save work for their editors, or whether they are paid for the publication at advertising rates. The Herald does not know, but the chances are that in most cares the facts that the bulletins are “free,” and that they help fill space, are the only incentives for their publication. mortzag this Two Hundred Eight and 92-1 with interest at the rate of ten p annum from the 28th day of June. the total amount due at this Hnudred and fifty dollars that. said mortgage will be fc virtue of the power of sale therein con! and pursuant to the statute in such ¢c made and provided, by sale of the therein described and thereby con the southwest quarter of southwest q (sw of sw1i) of section twenty-seven (27 township one hundred forty-nine (149) north, range twenty-seven (27) west, Itasca county, Minnesota ; that said premises will be sold by the sheriff of said Itasca county at the front door of the county court house in the yil of Grand Rapids in said c the 29th day of July, at public vendue, to the highest bidder f cash, to satisfy the amout then due cn said mortgage. with taxes.if any. on said pre- mises. together with the costs ef sale. includ- ing twenty-five dollars ($25.) attorney's fees. stipulated in said mortgage.
