somewhat forgetful from severe cold,
missed one day from the front of his cap the
immense diamond he always wears there,
he was dreadfully frightened. A friend
pointed out that the statesman had mad

How To

Persons have been known to
gain a pound a day BY taking
an ounce Of SCOTS EMUL-
SION. II is strange, but il often
happens.
Somehow the ounce produces
the pound; it seems to start the
digestive machinery going prop
erly, so that the patient Is able
to digest and absorb his ordinary
food, which he could not do be-
fore, and that is the way the gain
is made.

Hicks February Weather.

February promises to come in under
reactionary storm conditions attended
in many parts with rain and snow
Sharp change TO colder may be looked
for behind these reactionary storms,
spreading from east to west, causing
marked fall in temperature even into
the south, before the Vulcan storm
period is central on the 7th. From the
TIN to the 10th no one need be surprised
to see warm wave for the season with
heavy rains turning to snow and bliz-
yards, to be followed closely by another
storm about the 18th. February as a,
rule is characterized by very unstable
weather conditions and spurts of rain
and snow are liable TO develope at any
time. A full moon on the 22nd may de
velope heavy disturbances in the gulf
region and there will be danger of foods
and overfows about this time and q,
very cold wave will push close after this
storm. Much unpleasant weather will
fall in February and March for outdoor
work, aud loss and suffering can be
aversed by making preparations accord
ingly. The months of April May and
June will be propitious above the aver
age for ont door and agricultural avoca-
tions. While the rain fall will be up to
the average, there will be no disaster
GUS suffering from moisture.

Loss to Owners.

On Wednesday afternoon last the large
dwelling house on the old Brown home
stead on the main road between Rockton
and La Fargo, was destroyed by fire
with nearly its entire contents The
place was occupied by Perley Brown
and MIR. Bacon, The loss is complete,
there being no insurance on the house
OF personal effects. Weare not apprised
of the extent of damage, but it Is a
severe one to both parties interested.
The old Brown place, three story, has
been land mark in that section of
country since the memory of man run
meth not TO the contrary
The Hillsboro Sentry says that the
farm residence of Henry Tracy Jr. who
lives about three miles east of that vii
lage was destroyed by fire Tuesday eve
ming, about Z o'clock. Fire originated
from the stove pipe which extended
through the roof Mrs. Tracy was alone
at the time the fire started but Tracy
arrived shortly after and succeeded in
saving most Of the household goods and
clothing. No insurance was carried on
the house. The night was bitter cold
and it was fearful time for q family
to be burned out of home.

ALIrTLE SERMON.
WHAT IS SUCCESS.

The idea that most people have of
happiness or success, is in adding some
thing to what they already possess In
reality it is something subtracted some
thing given out, One must have ex-
pended thought for others, must have
given OF time, of labor, of material, that
others might be comforsed, encouraged, :
and bettered in condition. Neither
happiness or success are gained without
giving out of something. Ii is what we
give that we really have Self aggrand-
izement is not the truest success or snr-
est happiness. The greatest success is
not always in having added TO ones
store of dollars Nor is the greatest
happiness in having accumulated trap
pings Of wealth, or places of pow or
Mourning for those gone is not the
greatest sorrow We may meet what
the world calls failure and at the same
time attain TO greater succeas in ones
quering self; in attaining higher and
nobler character.
Success is not always that which the
world claims as such True success
often poses to the world as failure. The
success OF Columbus was far beyond his
widest dreams, yet he was looked upon
as even worse than failure and was
put in chains. Many who have been
considered foolish and failures have been
the greatest benefactors. When we
make failure we need not lst it be
total failure We may draw strength
and wisdom from it to gain further sue
cess. One has said we rise on stepping
stones of our dead selves to higher
things Let us not be puffed up with
pride at apparent success, nor discour-
aged at apparent failure. Keep brave
he 4rt and true. Think more Of what
we may give and do for those about us,
ee;.= mankind, than of what we are to
receive SO shall we fin the greatest
happiness so shall we meet the truest
success. This is happiness that can
| not be taken from us; This ID success
that does not depend on outward cir
cumstances or appearance Milwaukee
