l never saw q tobacco user who
didn't wish he could quit the use of it,
and never a young man just beginning
to use it who didn't get sick the first
thing in trying to get his nature used
to it. tried it once and meyer have
been certain since whether my boots
were in my stomach or on my feet.
Why young men want to contract the
habit at such expense is a query, and
I don't believe they would if they knew
how hard it will be some day to quit.
Every old inveterate would like to
stop, and every young man now be-
ginning the habit, which makes him
appear like a man, will want to stop
some day and find himself without the
courage to do it.-Uncle Joe, in Win
dom Reporter.
Country editors always remain poor
says the Pipestone Star, but that is be-
cause they are not mean enough to
get rich. In order to get rich it is on
ly necessary to trust nobody, to be-
friend none, to get everything and
save all you get; to stint ourselves and
everybody belonging to us; to be the
friend of no man and have no man for
our friend, to heap interest upon in
terest, cent upon cent; to be mean
miserly, and despised tor some thirty
years and riches will come as sure as
disease and disappointment. And
when pretty near enough wealth is
collected by disregard of the human
heart, at the expense of every enjoy
ment save that of wallowing in filthy
meanness, death comes to finish the
work. Country editors prefer to re-
main poor, live happy and die happy.

Nothing Modern About It.

Those sufferers from Ia grippe who
imagine that it is modern and fash
ionable disease-the very latest thing
in ailments, SO to speak-are away off
from the facts. A writer in Babyhood
says that an outbreak of the same di: =
ease occurred in the Athenian army at
the time of the Peloponnesian war,
more than 400 years B. c., and that q
number of writer's from that period
down have written more or less accur-
ate accounts of the rsvages of the dis
ease. The writer above quoted also
gives the comforting G assurance that
"A study of q chronological table of
the disease tends to lead one to believe
that when it occurs during two sue
cessive years, it may be expected dur
ing the third, and possibly during the
fourth year"
To those who have not contracted
la grippe, the following aids to preven-
ton, as given by DR.. Cyrus Edison may
be of value:
"Warm wooden clothing should be
worn next to the skin.
"A plain nourishing diet should be
taken. Meals should be eaten with
regularity.
"Late hours and crowded places
should be avoided. Keep in doors as
much as possible. When in the open
air keep in motion. Avoid wetting the
feet. On entering a house, remove
wraps at once. Keep away from per-
sons affected with the disease.
I'm a word, avoid exposure and ex-
cess; adopt regular habits and live
we'll. On the first symptom of the
disease, send for a physician"

The Northfield News, in suggest
i've editorial on the homely old proverb,
Fish or cut bait" gives the following
sound counsel:
Do your own fishing. Act for your
self as much as possible in the nature
of things, and do not indolently trust
to another. Select the best place, and
keep "bobbing" until it is fshed dry
before even thinking of moving.
Changing about with every wind that
blows is almost as bad as not throwing
line at all. Bait is not generally TAX
en- at the first cast, and the public has
been gulled 50 often it is shy about
taking the hook. Look we'll to the
rod, the reel, the line, the leader, the
sinker, and use the "most killing and
dainty morsels, and be ready when the
rush comes. Another cannot do bust
ness-at least will not, as a rule-one-
half as we'll as you can yourself. Do
your own fishing if you would be sat-
isfied with the result. Stop loafing
around whistling, throwing pebbles
idly into the stream, but go to work in
earnest. You have no pole or linei
Then get them. 1t can be done some
how, if you try.
Editor Heatwole should have added,
that anyone can alway procure as
many Zines as they need in their To-
cal paper, for a small consideration.
Don't use a glittering spoon hook, but
keep your hook supplied with live bait,
true to appearances.

Northwestern Agriculturist: The
magnificent crop of wheat grown in
the Northwest in the season of 1891
not only gave the farmers who grew
it good pay for their work IN the av-
erage, but in many cases paid them
large profits. There were, however,
many who did not make more than
good wages off their land, and in some
cases grew the crop at an actual loss.
If all such farmers could and would
farm we'll, 80 that their average in
yield would stand equal to that of the
best, the aggregate yield would be 80
largely increased that prices would
fall. The good farmer, therefore, may
be thankful that large portion of his
brother farmers are too lazy or too
thoughtless to farm we'll. The losses
of the shiftless help the profits of the
thrifty. While they grow crops at q
loss, they help their wiser neighbors
to make more money out of their big

Before election, Gov. Boies of Iowa,
declared that the farmers of his state
were annually growing poorer raising
corn, and represented them as on the
verge of bankruptcy, on account of
the Mckinley law. Last week he asked
these same farmers to give out of
their abundance to the starving Rus
slams. There is not more difference
between Philip drunk and Philip SOL
er, than between politicians of the
Boise stripe before and after an cleo
ton.

Those who cry out the mortgages of
Kansas and the immense debt that
hangs over her, forget that every coun-
ty in the state is bonded beyond re-
demption for railroads, that farms are
mortgaged the entire crop from which
will not pay the interest thereon.
Western Kansas is almost desert yet
men have gone out there and bought
land on borrowed money, and could
they live hundred years they would
not be able to pay off the indebted
ness.-Morgan Messenger.
Hold on, neighbor! Be fair. To say
that every county in Kansas is bonded
beyond redemption is such whopper
that we conclude that the devil must
have been astride the tripod, in the
absence of the editor, when the above
got into the Messenger. That impu-
tation might apply to a few counties
in Western Kansas, but we will wager
at least q barrel of salt, and leave it to
any competent state official of Kansas,
that more than half the counties of
Kansas are not only bonded beyond
redemption, but are not bonded any
worse according to valuation than the
average Minnesota county. There are
few richer localities in the world than
eastern Kansas-rich not only in agri-
cultural resources, but in coal, lead,
salt and manufactures. Minnesota
snits us better than Kansas in some
respects-the writer, as we'll as Editor
Brooks, has lived in both states-but
when it comes to wealth or resources,
Minnesota has no reason to brag over
her southern neighbor, if the western
half of Kansas is excluded, in some
parts of which the rage for issuing
bonds and mortgages, joined with a
succession of crop failures, has invited
bankruptcy.

Editor Byington makes an excellent
suggestion in Rural Center, in con-
Guiding an editorial on Sunday open
ing of the Worlds fair:
We only suggest that some of the
millions of dollars that will be raised
to make this Worlds Fair a success,
be expended in providing sufficient
number of suitable places for these
crowds to assemble and be addressed
by such eminent teachers as Moody
and Swing, Bishops Ireland and New
man, Talmage and Smith and others
equally eminent. If we are to make
an exposition of American civilization
let one-seventh of the time be I'M
grudgingly devoted to that which un-
derlies and gives character to it, viz:
moral law and religious aspiration.
1t was big roll of paper, and when
we took it from the postof6ce it was at
once sized up as lot of back numbers
from some advertiser. Upon tearing
off the wrapper, it disclosed no back
numbers, but great twelve-page edi-
ton of the St. Peter Herald, each page
eight-column size. Editor johnson
has always done good work for St..
Peter, and after reading this number
we are sure that that guardian saint
will throw the pearly gates wide open
for this rustling, good-tempered editor.
Aside from its local work, the Herald
is candid, fearless Democratic expon-
ent, and stands "four-square" against
free coinage or any other description
of party hypocrisy to catch votes.
Long live the Herald!

women Who Deserve wealth.

Two hardy women from Los Angeles appeared at the land office in Santa Fe, N. M., a couple of weeks ago and filed upon home steads which they had located. The land is on the eastern slope of the zuni Mountains, and in order to reach the place the women had to travel eighteen miles from the rail road station, walking much of the time, because of the bad roads, and often wading through two feet of snow. A number of men were wait ing at the railroad settlement for the snow to thaw, so that they could locate claims, but the women said they had no time to wait, and they waded through the snow. A Michigan syndicate had bought POO, 600 acres of railroad land in that re- zion, planned improvements, and projected lumber mills, and as the indications were that 300 or 400 people were planning to found a colony there, the women thought they saw big future and they put in their homestead claims. A num- Der of similar instances of women miners, women ranchsrs and women homesteaders have come to notice lately in the great west.

 SYRACUSE, N. Y., April 22. About ' o'clock last evening Earnest Rapp shot his wife and child and then shot himself.
 Rapp and family resided on Kirk patrick street, this city. Last evening he became quarrelsome, when his wife went to n neighbours. s. Soon afterwards Rapp went to the house and tried to induce her to return home, but she was afraid of him and refused. He then pulled revolver and fired three shots, one of which passed through the woman's abdomen, and another grazed the child's hand. Rapp went into an adjoining room and fired a ball into his own breast, the ball passing very near the heart.
 The would be murderer made his escape and was not found for two hours. In the meantime he had taken a dose of Rough on Rats
 Rapp and wife were removed to a hospifal and both are in critical condition, but indications to-day are favorable for their recovery. Jeal- ousy is said to be tho motive for Rapp's attempted murder and sui eide.

AWFUL END.
Twenty-four Persons Burned to Death at
 St. Petersburg.
FATAL TENEMENT FIRE.
Nine Charred Bodies Taken From the Ruins~-stnny People Injured
 by Jumping From

ST. PETERSBURG, April 21 "A fatal fire occurred hero yesterday. A blaze was discovered in three story tenement occupied by large
 number of people. The flames spread with great rapidity, and when the tenants of the upper floors reached the stairs they found a mass of flames. All hopes of escape were cut off in this direction, and the panic-stricken people rushed back to their apartments, and many of them jumped from windows. Some of them were very seriously injured.
 The building was gutted, and when search was made of tho ruins it was found that nine occupants
 had been burned to death. Their
 bodies were almost unrecognizable. Fifteen others are missing and it is
 thought they were buried beneath the debris.
 The scene about the destroyed
 building is most pathetic. Relatives
 of those missing stand helplessly
 about crying and wringing their
 hands and refuse all consolation.
 Search for the remaining bodies is
 progressing as rapidly as possible.
