Boy.eand -NewSp.per, Keadins. !

- The question whether or not child
rem should be- encouraged :. TO- read
newspapers has been brought UP for
discussion, recently by the. statement
that Juvenile magazines are losing
their popularity. 1t is probably true
that boys throw aside these publica-
tons sooner than in former years, but
it is doubtful if anything is lost
thereby. The step from knickerbock-
ers to business is shorter than it used
to be. Then, why should boy cling
to Juvenile papers and magazines,
however meritorious? Unless he is to
be a bookworm, the sooner he gets in
touch with the workaday world the
| better for him Complaint is made that
| the newspapers have cut into the ju-
venile publications-that the boys
read the news. Of course there Is
reason in all things, but why should
not an intelligent boy keep up with
current events? The boy who can tell
| you the main features Of the pres1-
| dents message, who knows the condt-
| ton of the Cubans, who has read all
about the steel trust, and understands
the rise of Schwab to place and power,
who can tell you Andrew Carnegie
history, and Jim Jeffries' prize ring
record, is in a more robust mental
condition and more likely to succeed
in life than the boy who is kept on
literary baby food after he has out
grown the need Of it. Teach your boy
to read intelligently, to avoid the use
less news of wrecks and crimes and tt
elevate himself to more importan
matters. Any father ought to bs

Lesson from Noah. Carpenters.


Helping along a good work is not
always specially commendable thing.
There must be moral quality in it,
a choice or purpose, Of well doing. A
man deserves no credit for helping a
neighbor on his way when he really
intends to do that neighbor harm.
Nor does a man deserve spiritual ap-
proval because he does work on new
church. for which he receives full day
wages. DR.. Todd used to say that
Noah's carpenters were no better than
their neighbors, while they worked
daily on the place Of safety and SCOT
fed at Noah's prophecy and prepare
lions. until the food came and swept
them away with those who had not
been employed as they were. We
ought to take warning by the lesson OF
Noah's carpnters.

Penitent's Struggle With Himself

Penitents Struggle With Himself.
In return for the love which brought
the Son of Man down from heaven,
in return for the love which led him to
die for us on the cross, we cannot
give him holy lives, for we are not
holy; we cannot give him pure souls,
for our souls are not pure; but this
one thing We can give, and this Is
what he asks, hearts that shall never
cease from this day forward. till we
reach the grave, to strive to be more
like him; to come nearer to him, to
root out from within us the sin that
keeps us from him. To such battle
call you in his name. And even II at
the last day you shall not be able to
show any other service, yet be sure
that when thousands of his saints go
forth to meet him and to show his
triumph, he will turn to embrace with
arms of tenderness the poor penltent
who has nothing to give but life
spent in one never-ceasing struggle
with himself, an unwearied battle with
the faults that had taken possession
of his soul-Frederic Temple.

Easentiala to Success.

To the highest success In lie three
things are essential, namely: FIRST,
one should have difficulties to over
come: second. one should be able to
overcome; third, one should be willing
to overcome. Only weak men crave
easy places. AS the fire in the ship
is helped by opposing winds, SO young
men who have the real fire within
welcome the opposing winds or pow
erty, limited opportunities, dlscour-
agements and all that may be against
them knowing that if they are able
to overcome, latent capabilities shall
be brought out in the conflict and
things which at first seemed to hinder
will afterwards become helps rather
than hindrances. The rough mountain
side NAV furnish foothold for climb
ing to loftier views and better nelas
on the other side. A crown OF thorns
furnished by enemies sometimes be-
comes more royal than the best JeW-
els that friends can give, because
through travail triumph may be born
and through crucifXion larger life ap-
pear. The important thing is to be
on the side of right, of truth, or trl-
umph. There everything will help u.s.
The earth helped the woman. The
best scholars tell us that the woman
here means redeemed humanity and
the earth means the forces OF nature
Thus we interpret the truth and de-
clare that all the forces of this worlo
are ready to help redeemed humanity
when redeemed humanity is ready ane
willing to be helped.-Rev. L. y. Ryot1

Construction Contracts to Be Let
Within the Week. = .
Contracts for inclosing the new Asbury
hospital building will probably be let
within a few days. This work will cost
approximately $4,000. Already material
is being hauled to the site for the re-
building of the floors by the contractor,
who will also build the roof. The first
floor was not success and will be re-
placed with modified form of the same
floor, much stronger, however, and which,
after tests in Northeast Minneapolis, are
found to satisfy the building inspector as
to its strength and durability. At pres
ent the contract will not be let further
than to inc1ose the building. S. Over
mire is the architect and Harry w. Jones
the supervising architect. The new build
ing committee is composed as follows:
S. G: Robinson, j. H. Morton, H. M. Bou-
tell, II. A. Jainison, DR.. F. A. Dunsmoor,
Rev. r. c.. Sharpe, p. G. Hanson, Henry

are SO beset by the pitfalls Of sickness and
danger. Just as they are entering the
state Of conscious womanhood they begin
to realize the dangers ahead of them. Dis
ordered menstruation threatens the bloom
of health in their cheeks, just as they are
learning to cherish their beauty as bless
ing. Strong healthy girls, who have
romped at play with their brothers become
sickly helpless women if their menstrual
habits are not correctly established at the
start. Mothers should watch their daugh-
ters as they are entering womanhood and
see that they are well equipped for the new

impaired health are doomed to lifelong
suffering. But every mother can secure
good health for her girls by giving them

LAKE PROPERTY ACTIVE
A Brisk Demand Has Stiffened Prices
Appreciably.

Appreciably.
A marked revival of interest in Lake
Minnetonka property is evident this
spring. The inquiry both for cottages for
rent and for sale is greater than in any
previous year for many seasons back, ana
more actual sales have already been made
than in any two or three seasons since the
coming Of the hard-times era At one
place alone, the Fairview- Meadville park
section on the south shore, six sales have
been recorded this year and in every case,
but one, to persons intending ito occupy
the cottages as summer homes. Negotla-
lions are on for the sale Of two or three
other cottages in this same vicinity.
Three new homes will be erected there
this season. 49,
In nearly every instance the cottages
sold were owned by those who tired OF
living at the lake some years ago and
have since had. to rent their places from
inability to sell at anything approaching
satisfactory figures. 4
Prices of cottages and lots fl tRiIng on
the lake at other points on H2iM-south
shore have stiffened considerably in
price very recently. Atone point a gem
tleman who has had his cottage on the
market all winter, just marked it up 10

Lots advantageously situated, both in the

CONDITIONs ABROAD
August Cederstrand Says That Struc
turaI Products Are Active.

August Cedarstrand, the we'll known
general contractor, has just returned from
two months trip to his old country,
Sweden, which he has not visited for
twenty-on years. He is again in the har-
ness and has taken up contracts left when
he departed for foreign lands. Mr.. Ceder-
strand visited his father, who still lives,
at the age of Sc, in the old home at Con-
koping. Owing to his fathers feeble con-
dition he did. not come upon him sud
denly, but sent word on before.
Mr.. Cederstrand noticed some changes.
With few exceptions the business of man
ufacturing is pretty nearly at stand
still. The sash and door business has
increased. The products Of these indus
tries are sold in England, Germany and
France, where they enter into competition
with America, and this forces the business
into activity. If it were not for poverty,
Mr.. Cederstrand believes that Is per cent
Of the craftsmen and mechanics between
Is and 40 would migrate to America.
Groceries and some other things cost
more in the old town. than in Minneapolis.
