smoothly in the grooves if We would
only let it, but we are not content
to do so-in fact contented with
nothing. From the cradle to the
tomb we are continually fretting
about something. We are living at
altogether too fast and too reckless
rate. We initiate the balloon be-
yond its capacity to bear, and then
wonder that 1t collapses and we get
fall. Contentment-tol let things
take their course is condition we
have yet to learn. But how can we
expect to be free from troubles as
long as we are seeking for it? We
are much like the son of the Emer-
aid Isle, who "was never at peace
without he was at war with some
body" We are constantly making
trouble-get into hot water and
then grumble. But the world wags
on just the same, and will unto the
end, although we hasten our end by
constant restlessness.

A DELUsIoN.-A young man who
thinks that he can lead a reckless
and profigate life until he becomes
a mid die g ged man, and then repent
and make a good aud steady citizen,
is deluded by the devil. He thinks
that people are tools, destitute of
memory. He concludes that if he
repents everybody will forget that
he was a dissipated wretch. This
is not the case ; people remember
your bad deeds and forget your
good ones. Besides it is no easy
thing to break up IN middle age bad
habits that have been formed in
youth. When horse contracts the
habit OF banking, he generally re-
tains it through life. He will often
perform ell enough until the
wheels get into a deep hole, and
then he stops and holds back. Just
so it is with the boys who contract
bad habits. They will sometimes
leave off their bad tricks, and do
well enough until they get into a
tight place, and then they return to
the old habit. Of those boys who
contract the bad habit of drunkness,
not one in every hundred dies q So
Der man. The only way to break
up a bad habit is never to contract
it. The only way to prevent drunk.
ness is never get drunk.

The person who sent us the

we have decided not to expose pub
licly this time the boys whose
names are given. But we would be
doing wrong to remain silent if
again requested by respectable citi-
zens to speak.

What We Are For.

Listen to the heavy heat throbs
as the du.l, oppressive chorus of
agony comes up from the darkness
of despair, in which millions of
SCARED and bleeding souls grope
their way to the churchyard; listen
to the ever ceaseless trickling of tear
drops which, like drops Of water
upon the stone, wear out the life
and plow deep burrows in the cheek;
listen to the prayers that leap from
aching g'hearts up to the ear of God +;
listen to the solemn tread Of the
funeral train and the moaning sor-
row that the winds catch up as they
wing through it and bear away into
a distant, solemn echo listen to the
thud Of the earth as it strikes the
casket which holds the sacred dead
and the hearts of loving kindred /;
look upon the Grape on the door
knob; look on the vacant chair at
the fireside; go sit upon the fresh
spaded earth in the cemetery; look
into the desolate home of the for
saken and starving; look upon the
great black ocean of human suffer
ing and misfortune, and then let the
sunshine of human sympathy into
all the darkness and despair which
cluster about the vicissitudes OF
earth. Thisis the mission Of life. The
man who lats flower die, when he
can sye it; who shuts sunbeam
out of the sick room; who neglects
to turf the new made grave with
verdure and fowery beauty; who
forgets to speak peace to the
troubled soul, is a cloud upon the
sky, and a libel upon his kind.
The Superior times. [volume] (Superior, Wis.) 1870-1912, 1877-05-05

SELF HELP.-People who have
been bolstered up all their lives are
seldom good for anything in a
crisis. When misfortune comes,
they look around for somebody to
cling to OF lean upon. IT the prop
is not there, down they go. Once
down they are perfectly helpless,
and they cannot find their feet
again without assistance. Such
persons no more resemble men who
have fought their way to position,
making difficulties their stepping
stones and deriving determination
from defeat, than vines resemble
oaks, or sputtering rushlights the
stars Of heaven. Efforts persisted
in TO achievements train q man to
selfreliance, and, when he has
proven to the world that he can
trust himself, the world will trust
him. One of the best lessons a
father can give lis son is this :
Work; strengthen your moral and
mental faculties as you would
strengthen your muscles, by vigo-
rous exercise. Learn to conquer
circumstances +; you will then be in
dependent of fortune. The men OF
athletic minds, who left their mark
on the years in which they lived
were all trained in a rough school
They did not mount to their high
position by the help of leverage
they leaped the chasm, grappled
with the opposing rocks, avoided
avalanches, and, when the goal was
reached, felt that but for the toll
that strengthened them as they
strove it could never have been at
tanned.

THE prospects looking to the i'm
mediate building Of the Brainerd
branch of the st. Paul 81 Pacific
railroad are very favorable. A COM
pany composed of St. Paul men has
been formed, it is understood in the
interest of the Northern Pacific
company, to build the road, and
SIS, 900 in cash has been deposited
with Gov. Pillsbury as forfeit in
case the line is not finished within
year. Engineers will start over
the road next week aud actual
work will commence as soon as
their reports come in, and it is con-
fidently asserted by those who
ought to know that the cars will be
running by the middle of Septem-
Der next.
The road to be built is about
sixty miles long, and runs along the
east bank of the Mississippi River
from Sauk Rapids, just above St.
Cloud, to Brainerd on the Northern
Pacific, placing St Paul within l2o
miles of the latter by pretty di-
rect rail connection.

PROSPECTIVE DEMAND FOR
BREADsTUFFs.-The effect of the
European war OH the grain product
of the United States has been in
vestigated by the Bureau of Stats
ties, and the result is altogether en-
couraging. 1t appears that from
September /, 1876, to April first of
this year,-the period since the
harvest-there have been placed in
the English market from this coun-
try, 49,75l 900 bushels of wheat
against 62,24Q,0OO for the CORE
spending period Of the year before,
showing decrease of over 13,000,-
900 of bushels i'll our expectation of
wheat to England for the same date
The importation into Great Britain
from other sources has been nearly
22,000,000 bushels against nearly
34,ooo,ooo of the previous year.
This shows that there is quite de-
ficit in England as compared with
former years. The effect of this
will be to stimulate American ex-
portations of grain very largely, in
the opinion of the Bureau.

SUPERioR's SCHOOLS AND TEACH
ERs.-Tbe Duluth Tribune in a long
article on the schools of Duluth
very justly gives Superior credit in
the following words:
''If there is another town in the
whole northwest, of the size, or
even of half the size of Duluth which
has such a miserable set of school
buildings as has this, we should
like to know where it is. Even the
little village of Superior, over the
bay, at which Duluth has always
poked a good deal of fun, has, for
years, had fine central high school
building which cost some $4,000
or SIS, 900, and also two or three
fine large, airy district school build
ings, costing if we mistake not,
some $4,000 each, and then suf-
ticlent school tax has always been
levied there to support good schools,
and sufficient number OF them, the
whole year round; and the result
has been, that that village mas al
ways had infinitely better schools
than Duluth, and has trained up
and sent out teachers by the dozen
three of whom, and very capable
ones, too, have found employment
in Duluth. 1t may not be amiss to
remark just here, that the adyan-
tages which that village now pos
sesses in the way Of commodious
school houses, and good schools,
are very largely due to the influence
of one naaa-Mr. /. w. Gates-who
is splendid scholar, and an en-
thusiast;c educator, and who had
many years of experience before
failing health induced him 10 seek
this invigorating climate, AID who
believed it possible to have first
class schools, even in a small village.

portant item of the business of this
place was about to slip from our
grasp. For the past three or four
years the St. Croix lnmbermen in
passing through Superior have left
considerable money here with our
hotels, stores etc, and the hauling
of supplies has been quite a large
business, employing many OF our
men and teams. In fact the St.
Croix numbering operations have
furnished The chief local business of
our town during the winter season,
and if we are to lose it, we must
endeavor to make up the loss by
strong efforts in other directions.

THE CROP PRosPEcTs. Accounts
from various Joints in Minnesota,
Iowa, Illinois, Kansas, Nebraska
and Missouri are encouraging, with
respect to the prospects for wheat
and corn. A vast amount of seed
ing has been done within the past
two or three weeks, the farmers be-
ing moved to extra efforts in order
to Offset, as far as possible, the raw
