a right estimate upon your ability
TO do something in the New Year.
A great many people are kept back
from earnest and Efficient work
simply because they under rate
their own capacity TO do something
for their town, their county, their
state or for their God. If all the
vast good that has been done had
, been left undone simply because
| the workers had ielt their inability
to perform their work then the
world and our own immediate
neighborhood would have been
very much impoverished Have
faith to believe that what you have
been given to do you can do, and
believe that you will do it.You may
may do it as inteIligently or as suc-
cessfully as another, but ii you
do it with all your mi ut, you have
fulfilled your responsibility and
will win approval.
RESOLVE, that you will take
some active part in the work that
is to be done in 1907, be it evsr SO
small. II is not the stupendous
effort. the superlative deed. 1t is
the steady, unfailing, constant per-
Torrance of work that causes the
soul and the heart to grow strong.
However small the deed, if you do
il faithfully and with unsel6shness
you will find yourself able to do
more and better. Take some ac-
tive part therefore in the work of
building a city that will be good
place to live in.
RESOLVE, that what you do
will not be actuated by any motive
OF sel6shness in what you do for
others during the New Year. The
most beautiful thing on earth is a
benevolent, unsel6sh spirit and
life. The life that radiates around
self gain, is always more or less
useless and worthless, useless to
the one who lives il and worthless
to those among whom it is lived.
Let the New Year be not what
can ! do for myself" not "how
can | establish my own reputation
and build up my position and in
crease my own gain" but rather
let it be What can l undertake
that will improve the position, add
10 the pleasure and strengthen the
gain of those around me1" Then
il will be 1907 for others" and
not 1907 for self" 1t will be the
New Year made new by the ever
flowing of brotherly and sisterly
feeling and action, and not made
old by the recurrence Of selfish and
Indifferent thought and deed.
If such a year as this be lived,
win NOT the scroll at its termination
be some source Of satisfaction to
you and some abiding testimony
Of faith in yourself, faith in your
fellow man and in the Great Gre
ator who gave you life.

the door Of that house. I could have
crushed every bone in all Of them
and If had been guilty, would have
done so. But I knew I was innocent
and did not choose to make evidence
against myself by resistance.
| 1.-THE next day, when I was allowed
to tell my story, was afraid Of impli-
eating Jenkins, and said nothing about
the cause which took me out, merely
relating what occurred after I discoV-
cred the window open. I understand
that Roberts swore, before the cor
oner, that he called upon me thai
night to claim the payment of sum
!, of money I owed him, and that ! put
1t off, promising to pay on the morrow
He swore that he met me that night
armed with a heavy club, and having
my coat collar turned up so as ia
hide my face; that he spoke to me, and
did not answer; that his suspicious
were excited, and he followed me eau
tiously; that he saw me enter the
dow; that he first supposed I had been
out for some purpose which I desired
to hide from Franz, and had therefore
adopted this mode of entrance; that
he was about going away when he
heard a blow and q heavy fall; that
he then became alarmed and ran of
for a watchman, who called two others
to his assistance, and they proceeded
together to the house; that on observ-
ing the light, they divided, Roberts
and another going into the back yard
to prevent escape; that I extinguished
the light at the first sound Of knock
ing on the front door; that on entering
the house, they found just such a
club as he had seen me carrying,
living by the dead mans side all
covered with blood; that my knife,
bloody from point to hilt, was dis
covered on the mantle-piece In my
room; that my clothes and hands
were bloody. and that there were
marks of bloody fingers on the money
drawer. Upon searching my per-
son they found the key Of the shed
room in my pocket, and in my chest
quantity of small change, such as
Franz would be likely to receive from
his customers A good deal Of this was
true and was corroborated by others.
All that was true I could easily ex-
plain, but 1 had no proof to sustain
my statement The money was mine.
1t had been paid to me for boat fare
and was therefore mostly In small
change. The club I had dropped In
the pool of blood when 1 knelt down
by the body to ascertain II life was
extinct. MY hands and clothes were
bloodied at the same time. In exam
lining the drawer to see what had been
taken out, 1 had no doubt left the
prints of my fingers upon 1t. Ihe
knife was a large hunting-knife l
had worn during the war, and had
been lying there upon the mantle
piece for months"

Iodine. Cure For Snake Bite.

For a sure cure for a snake bite,
take about seven drops Of iodine,
scarify and bathe the wound also with
iodine. This remedy was first used
by a medical officer In British service
In India 1t has cured both man and
a number of animals; 1t never fails, 1t
Is really wonderful in its effects.
One instance 1 will relate. A young
man working for me in the harvest
field was bitten by a very large rat
tlesnake on one Of his large toes. I
gave him about seven drops Of tine
ture Of iodine on a little sugar and
to make doubly sure repeated the
dose an hour later. His foot swelled,
but next morning he was all right. I
have had animals whose bodies have
swelled considerably, but all have re-
covered from the bite.-Topeka Capt.

value for such use. He gave a good
lesson in the shape of biscuits and
cakes made from a combination of
cottonseed meal and wheat -four.
They were pronounced as delicate and
tasty as any produced of the flour
barrel by members Of the convention
who were given an opportunity to
partake of the food. Another use of
the seed Is that for fertilizer in the
shape Of meal.
"The use of the raw seed to enrich
the land was pronounced waste, as
the meal can be used to much better
financial advantage. Professor Con-
nell said that within a short time he
believed cottonseed crushers of the
south would be able to announce an
actual. discovery of 100000 tons of
a new product fit for human con-
sumption. He stated that he had
used cottonseed oil as a cooking fat
In his home for six months. and that
it was equal in all respects for cook
ing purposes to the best lard.
by an invention Of comparatively
recent times cottonseed oil is freed
from the old impurities which gave
1t a rank odor. So-called olive oil
which reaches America from southern
Europe carries a large percentage Of
cottonseed oil. Cottonseed meal is
used in making corn and -four muf-
fms, biscuits, pancakes, gingerbread,
dark graham bread, together with
cakes Of all kinds and for various
other similar uses.
"The United States department of
agriculture says that cottonseed oil
is worth for food purposes for ami
mails about double the value of timo-
thy hay, and cottonseed meal for the
same purpose is worth three and one
third times as much as corn meal.
About $30,000,000 worth of cotton
seed oil is exported. and that is only
one-third of the product. Fifteen
years ago 100000 barrels Of cotton
seed oil were made. which number
was increased to more than 100000
barrels for the last season."

THE ART OF ADVERTISING.

Character IN CircuIdtioh-in0 'eas
of Reaching the Homes Of Buyers.
It costs more money to run mod
ern up-to-date daily newspaper sucn
as the Reporter, than advertisers ano
readers realize. No publisher car
continue to furnish his advertisers
with a medium that can produce re-
suits unless he insists upon being paio
fair price for his work. 1t mas al
ways been the policy Of the Reporter
to insist that the people who reao
the paper pay for 1t. Therefore there
are no deadheads on the Reporter cir
culation books. It's readers are gooo
customers-they pay for the paper In
which they see the merchants an
nouncement and they pay the mer-
chant for what they buy Of him. The
merchant who advertises In the Re-
porter sends his announcement into
the homes Of the substantial people
of the city-the people who buy AND
pav for what they get.-Fond du Lac
| lWlS.D FepOItei'
Perhaps there Is no more difficult
problem in the world Of business than
to arrive at a fair Judgment Of the ad-
vertising value Of space in a newspa-
per. In the nature Of things this val
lie cannot be measured as are yards
of cloth or bushels Of wheat OF
pounds Of coal. 1t Is as intangible as
Is the something that lifts great pic
ture above the level of mere paintins
The canvas Of each may be alike, the
co,ors from the same tubes laid on py
the same business, yet the result may
have a market value Of 100000 q
square foot as a Meissonier or 70
square yard as hack work.
Circulation Is often the only claim
to an advertisers attention that q
newspaper presents. But circulation
alone is far from being the all In all
There must be circulation or there car
be no advertising value. The more
circulation there is the better for the
adyertlser-if the right people are
reached by 1t in the right way. Ano
there the problem appears. Who reads
the newspaper is vastly more import
ant to the advertiser in its columns
than how many read 1t.
Our Fond du Lac contemporary
policy Is very much like that Of the
Herald. It hits several nails fairly or

THE recent meeting Of the Cotton
seed Crushers' association at Allan

brought out some interesting facts
in regard to the uses Of cottonseed'
both for domestic and export pur-
poses. Governor Terrell, who was
in early life a cotton grower, said
that he remembered we'll when cot
tonseed was burned to get rid OF It,
but last year there were 4,5OO,OOO
tons of cottonseed bought from south

practically 25 per cent to the value
of the cotton crop. This has been
brought about principally through
the cottonseed oil industry.

Educational.

One of the great needs iu many Of
our public schools to day Is more
regular attendance on The part Of the
pupils. School teaching is not unlike
other work to the extent that we shonld
not slack our push and strong efforts
II we would succeed in life.
The man who begins business and
relax In his perseryering efforts because
OF few Instructions in his path. may
never reach the goal. The parents who
will allow their children frequently ston
out of school for frivolous causes will
not make the educational headway de.
sired. Aside from the fact that too
often out of school may weaken their
interest in school work, it cripples them
in the work being done by the class Of
which they form a part. The writer
has known parents to attribute the slow
advancement of pupils to the negligence
of the teacher. when it was more due to
the irregularty of attendance on the
part Of, the pupils. The pupil who de-
riyes the bes results from school is the
one in regular attendance
The Importance of a good practical
education appeals to all alike, to make
a sacrifice if necessary TO keep children
in school. The age in which we live
demands it, The ideas and questions
of today brought to Ms upon ciyiliza-
tian, and the duty we owe to ourselves
to our children. and, to the succeeding
generations, calls upon us to educate
our children.
This lack of interest may not be 50
prevalent in the White Schools as in
Colored, but it is a mistake wherever it
exists.
Let us educate our children and we
shall better prepare them for the battles
of life.

1t is hoped that the new officers will
