Lord BeaconsfieId Wisdom.

Man conceives fortune but woman
conducts it.
1t is the spirit of man that says, Il
will be great but it is the sympathy
of woman that usually makes him SO.
Never argue. In society, nothing must
be discussed; give only results.
Men shrink from a fussy woman.
A smile for friend and a sneer for
the world, is the way to govern the
world
There is no end to the influence of
woman on our life. 1t is at the bottom
of everything that happens to us.
Thoroughly understood, the art of
conversation consists of the exercise of
two fine qualities You must originate
and you must sympathize; you must
possess at the same time the habit of
listening The union is rather rare but
irresistible
temptations are the test of
character, of will, of spiritual power;
the fine gold is searched.
Who would be more than man should
fear lest he be less.
There are moods of mind that battle
analysis, that arise from mysterious
sympathy we cannot penetrate.
Human love-. the consola-
ton that never fails.
Little things affect little minds.
Men of the world have a way of
settling everything without discussion;
they do it by tact
Inexhaustible is the commerce of fond
hearts: A Simple story, too, and yet
there are SO many ways of telling it.
Talk of fame and romance, all the
glory and adventure in the world are
not worth one single hour of domestic
bliss.
If beings are united by any other con-
siderations than love, constancy is, of
course, impossible, and | think unneces-
sary To a man who is in love. the
thought of another woman is uninterest-
ing, if not repulsive; constancy is hu-
man nature
Where we do not respect we soon
cease to love; where we cease to love,
virtue weeps and dies.
The magic of first love is our ignor-
ance that it can ever end.

COUNTY NOT LIABLE
Mrs. Effie Kirkham Had No Legal
Settlement in Blue Earth.
From Wednesdays Daily.

The county board has decided to OPP
pose the suit started against Blue Earth
county by Olmstead county to recover
So, the cost of medical attendance up
on Mrs. Effie Kirkham. The whole
matter will revOlve upon the question as
to whether the woman was a pauper
while resident of Blue Earth county.
If she was, then this county will have to
pay the bill, no matter how long it may
have been since she removed from the
county. If. on the other hand, she was
not pauper in this county, Olmstead
county will have to stand the expense.
As near as can be ascertained, during
the three or more years that the family
resided in this county they never asked
for assistance, nor were they given any
except on one occasion. When Mr..
Kirllham died, the family was known to
be very poor, and subscription was
raised at Lake Crystal to assist in pay
ing the funeral expenses, and County
Commissioner Epson gave an order for
Sl4 on the county for this same pur-
pose. This was for the purpose of bury
inc Mr.. Kirkham and not for assisting
Mrs. Kirkham. Later the latter went
to live with her sister in Olmstead cOun-
ty, and it does not appear that she was
assisted any by that county until her
final illness, and then only to the extent
of employing a physician to care for her.
If a person becomes a pauper. that
person under the law has what is known
as a illegal settlement" at that place and
must be supported by that place, no
matter where residing.

MILK INSPECTION
Council Com mittee Takes Up Work Of
~ Preparing an Ordinance.


from IHufSuay y DAILY.
The council committee on health.
Health Officer Bjelland, DR.. Harry Dell
and City Attorney Schmitt held a
meeting last evening and considered
the proposed ordinance for the in
spection of dairy herds supplying the
city with milk, and milk dealers The
matter was talked over, and it was
found that there are difficulties in the
way that will have to be met and
overcome. All of the herds in the
country supplying milk to the city
will have to be reached. 1t was de-
cided that an inspection ordinance is
needed and that one will be prepared
and presented to the council, but the
committee will not be able to do this
before the next meeting.
1t was decided to- refer the matter
to Drs. Bielland and Dell and City
Attorney Schmitt to prepare an or
dinance that will cover the ground and
vet be legal, and this will be present
ed at a meeting of the committee to
be held later 1t is possible that one
difficulty will be eliminated by allow
ING ice cream dealers to get their
cream where they can when they find
a shortage in the local market. Cold
weakens the vitality of the germs, and
It is also claimed that there are not so
many germs in cream as in milk.

patients who have proved their efficacy

Wheat Sown Has Not Progressed
Says Crop Report.
From Tuesdays Daily.

The fourth crop report for the ter
ritory along the Northwestern line
west of Winona was issued from the
office of the general manager, A. c.
Johnson. This report contains the UNI
welcome news that the early season
which gave such promise a month ago,
has been lost, and crops are no fur
Their advanced than they were one
year ago at this time. However, it is
safe to predict that the acreage is larg-
er than last year. The report in full
follows:
Since the last report there has been
cold, disagreeable weather. Rain, sleet
and snow were quite general over the
entire territory, and but little progress
has been made in seeding or growing
crops. Everything in fact, being prac
tically at a standstill. As general
proposition it is not thought that there
has been any damage done to crops I'M
less it would be to oats, where the
freezing ground damaged the germ at
the right stage of termination, but of
course no grain above ground could be
injured by snow or cold weather at
this date. tits true, however. that no
Roadway has been made during the
past week and grain that is up does
not look strong and healthy compared
with the way it will be little later
with warm, favorable weather.
1t is safe to say that practically all
small grains have been seeded; the
early sown wheat is above ground, but
on the whole there has not been the
early season first promised as the last
week in March was a promising one
over the entire territory, but the
month of April was such that the early
Season has been lost and it is safe
to state that at the present time we
are just about at the same stage as
one year ago over the entire line.
In the vicinity of WATERFOWL, north
ern part of the Sioux Valley, Evan
Marshall line, the crops will be a lit
tie short, but on the whole it is safe
to state that the acreage is greater
than the average, just to what extent
will be reported at later date.

WILLIAMS Is APPOINTED
Receives His Commission As Super
int nde Mat Minneopa.

The following letter is self -explana-
tory:
st. Paul, May 2, l907.-Mr. William
r. Williams, Mankato, Mimi. Dear Sir:
Under the law, it becomes my duty to
appoint a caretaker or superintendent
of Minneopa Falls park, and L there
fore take pleasure in rendering the po-
sition to you.
As for compensation, / prefer that nc
definite arrangement be made for the
present, except to say that we cannot
pay very much. We do not expect a
man to give his entire time to it, but
do wish to see that the park is protect
ed, as well as possible. The superin-
tendent of the park of the Dalles OF
the st. Croix gets $25 a month, and !
could not consistently pay any more
than that, but as [ said before, we will
leave the salary question for future de-
termination, in case you decide to ac-
cept the appointment.
Kindly advise me as soon as you re.
ceive this if you will accept the position. l
have today written Mr.. Hodge. the
former superintendent that | should APP
point you, so he understands it. Very
truly yours, S. G. Iverson, state auditor
Mr.. Williams will accept the posi-
ton.
