Indians, who came in from Northern
Wisconsin and the Lake Superior
region, and a continuous warfare
was kept up between the two tribes
until after the Sioux massacre in
this state took place in 1862, when
the Sioux were driven away and
settled west Of the Missouri river,
while the Chippewas remained and
are permanently settled upon reser-
yations in Northern Minnesota.
From the time Minnesota became a
Territory in 1849. until she became a
state, northern Minnesota had but
few white settlers, as shown by the
census but a large population as
shown by election returns. Develop
ment Vas for many years slow, but
in recent years it has been
phenomenal. She originally pos
sessed all the pine timber in the state
and still has large amount left.
She embraces portion of the un-
salted sea of North America at the
head of which stands the Zenith city
OF our state, destined to he the Pekin
of America. Besides Duluth many
young and beautiful cities are being
built up all over northern Minnesota.
while it is being gridironed with rail-
roads. A ship canal connecting the
Father Of Waters with the Great lakes
ofNorth America is contemplated. We
have an abundance of timber land
the best of soil. The water shed of
this continent is in northern Minne-
sofa. OF the ten thousand lakes in
Minnesota, being more than in all
the other states combined, well
stocked with the finny tribe, the
greater number are in the north half
of the state. These lakes add great
ly to the health and pleasure ofthose
who are SO fortunate as to secure u
home among them. Our iron mines,
though just becoming developed, are
the marvel of the world. We have
the choicest granite and rock for
building purposes in unlimited
quantity. and I believe every citizen
Of the state feels that great in
Justice will be done, if every stone in
tho new capitol does not come from
Minnesota quarries Our gold mines
are yet in their infancy SO we can
only hope that Klondike is In
store Tor us. These are some of the
good things we have in northern

we have an occasional blizzard and

A TALK WITH THe GIRLS ABOUT
LAUGHING.

A very thoughtful girl, who loved a
compliment, as all girls do, but who
seldom got one, was once surprised by
the sudden remark ofR man as thought
full and as pre- occupied as herself. 81
have been wondering what was so
pleasant in your face" he said, with
blunt naivete. 81 see now, it is that
you do not smile every time you
speakI" Was it q doubtful compli-
ment7 I think not. We say, "HoW
do you dot" and then we make a
grimace, which has in it neither good
nature nor merriment. We venture q
remark on the weather, and we smile
from ear to ear. It is meaningless, and
only once removed from the palpably
idiotic. Then, when the birthdays be-
gin to come too close together, we
wonder vaguely why we ever got those
queer lines about our eyes and lips,
and why these perpendicular ones on
either side of the mouth. We forget
that we have been screWing up our
poor faces until we have stretched and
strained and creased them beyond all
PREPARATION. Besides, we look SO silly.
We sound so, too, for the smile usually
ends in q giggle. Than which nothing
is more wearisome and annoying. The
beauty classes" wherein women are
taught to laugh gracefully and well
ought to succeed, il only they do not
overdo the thing. Women have sci
dom the gift of moderation in full, and
to change from a ~grimacing monkey
into a laughing hyena would not make
much for progression. Hearty, real,
sincere laughter is delicious, but the
gufaw is q crime against good taste,
irrespective of the fact tat 1t often de-
stroys the lines Of the prettiest face.
Some laughter is cruel, some sadder
than weeping, and who among us does
not know some friend who is altogether
lovely in repose, but q trial when she
begins to emit the shrill, creaky sounds
which she fondly believes to be an
evidence of merrimentG There is no
occasion to be somber, but for goodness
sake do let US emulate the girl who
didn't ''smile every time she spoke"
Excessive smiling is ridiculous.-Ml

FACE TO FACE WITH TROUBLE

You are face to face with trouble,
And the skies are murk and gray;
You hardly know which way to turn,
You are almost dazed, you say,
And at night you wake to wonder,
What the next dRy'sneWs viii bring;
Your pillow Is brushed by phantom
carr
With a grim and CHASTITY wing.
You are face to face with trouble;
A child has gone astray;
A ship is wrecked ON the bitter sea;
There q note you cannot pay.
Your brave right hand is feeble,
Your sight is growing blind;
Perhaps q friend is cold and stern,
Who was ever warm and kind.
You are face toface with troubled
No wonder you cannot sleep;
But stay-and think of the promise,
The Lord will safely keep
And lead you out Of the thicket,
And into the pasture land;
You have only TO walk straight on
ward,
Holding the dear Lords hand.
Face to face with trouble;
And did you forget to look,
As the good old father taught you,
For help to the dear old bOok3
You have heard the tempter whisper
And you've had no heart to pray;
And God was opped from your scheme
of life,
On! for many q weary day
Then face to face with trouble
1t is thus he calls you back.
From the land of deRrIh and famine,
To the land that has no lack.
You would not hear In the sunshine,
You hear in the midnight gloom;
Behold his tapers kiudle
Like stars in the quiet room.
On! face to face with trouble,
Friend, I have often stood;
Iolearn that pain hath sweetness,
10 know that God is good.
Arse and meet the daylight;
b strong and do your bestl
With an honest heart and q childlike
faith,
That God will do the rest.
